~You Belong To Me~

{Chapter 6}

I couldn't reach for my dagger in time, he was too quick. I stepped back, watching as the blade went through the injured man. No one moved, the injured man stared down at the sword that went through his stomach. A blood-shrieking scream escaped his lips as the sword was removed, and his body fell to the ground. He screamed a few words before going silent.

I let out a breath I wasn't aware I was holding, My body tensing up at what I had just seen. He turned to the tanned man, The man nodded lifting the body and tossing it out to the water. Screams were heard from the crowd as they began rushing to their homes, the few who had their family kidnapped begged and pleaded for them to be released. It was all so quick, I couldn't even believe it. 

"You're right, they would have been nothing but nuisances if they were still alive." His tone seemed too aggressive for him to be smiling right now. 

He was definitely insane, something was wrong with him. I glanced over at the ship, Was he done? Or would he still kill me? If he found them to be nothing but nuisances would there even be a reason to kill me? If anything I did him a favor. 

"Will you let them go? You said you'd release them once the culprit was found." He stared at me, glancing over at the ship. 

He hummed out placing his hands on his hips deep in thought, The red crimson coat he had hanging on his shoulders moved slightly with his movements. The wide-brimmed hat that rested on his head tilted slightly as he turned to the man with the green bandana. The jewels that adorned his hat and neck glistened as the sun lowered. 

"Hmm, I did say that didn't it," He paused, turning back to look at me. His eyes moved down from my eyes, inspecting my figure before moving back up. "But unfortunately I do not feel like doing that, You should face your consequences I did lose three men after all perhaps a small duel would make me change my mind." I frowned at his suggestion. 

A duel? Did he intend to fight me, He wasn't in the right state of mind so my life would definitely be in danger. "If you win I will release them and leave, but if I win not only will I kill you I will also sell them." I glared at him, taking a step closer. 

His eyes watched me, his head tilting more. "Kill me if you like, but they have nothing to do with this!" He raised an eyebrow, smiling as he stepped closer. 

"I will do as I please, If you want them released you better not lose." His words were cruel and cold. 

He turned to the tanned man, "Antonio here will duel for me, your injured hand and small dagger will make it unfair for you to fight me so he will fight in my place." I stepped back, watching as the tanned man smiled. 

"It'd be fairer to have lovino fight but alas, I do as I'm told." He stepped towards me, pulling out a dagger from his hip. 

His accent made him seem more friendlier, but his eyes were far from it. I pulled out my dagger, walking back a few more feet. He stared at my hand, his eyebrows perking up at the sight of the black blade. 

"Quite an interesting dagger there Senorita, I'm sure you wouldn't mind if kept it after the fight right?" I smirked at him, keeping my stance closed. 

"You'd have to win for that to happen," He grinned, lunging at me. 

I parried his dagger, stopping it from reaching my side and pushing him off. His hand flew back leaving him open. I turned the blade aiming for his chest, he stepped back dodging it slightly before my blade could pierce his skin. His hand reached for my wrist, getting a hold of me and pulling my arm to the side. His other hand reached for my neck. I leaned back raising my leg to kick his arm, HIs eyes widening as he blocked the kick from reaching his chin.
