10 feet Under

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 :

Air. That was first thought that came to my mind after I realized I was submerged in ice, cold water. If I didn't resurface soon, I'd be as good as dead.

I started to fight the current, but the more I kicked, the more the burning sensation in my lungs increased.

My vision became hazy, and I knew I was slipping into unconsciousness. I didn't stay awake long enough to feel the firm grip on my arm pull me to safety.

I opened my eyes and and was immediately blinded by the sun. What is this, the afterlife? I started to move, when I felt the glossy hardwood floor beneath me. That was when I noticed the steady movement of water near the ground. I was on another ship! I looked up, and saw Calypso's flag billowing in the air.

It all hit me in an instant.

We were on our voyage to South Africa, when they attacked our ships. The suprise attack caused the destruction of our ships, as well as the loss of our cargo.

I gasped. My Crew! Had they all drowned?

I started to sob, and let the tears warm my frozen cheeks. I should have listened to my dad, and stayed home with him instead of coming out here! If Captain Cafarelli or his men saw me, they would hold me hostage and put an incredibly high price on my head.

I immediately stopped sobbing.

How did I get on this ship in the first place?

My answer came strolling in wearing a white v-neck, paired with black leather pants and boots.

A gun was strapped to his waste, and a pissed off look smug on his lips. He cursed under his breath.

"Merda! Fuck! Damnit!"

I slowy inched away from him, as his ocean blue eyes burned holes in my head.

"My life is officially over."

"Says the one who didn't lose his crew and didn't almost drown in the ocean!"

He gave me a suprised look, shocked that i had said anything to him.

"Listen seaweed hair, i don't wanna hear it from you today. I'm pissed off enough, and you're just making it worse."

Seaweed Hair??

" There is nothing wrong with my hair", I hissed, frantically picking out the green gunk.

He smirked.

"Says Medusa's twin sister."

" Ha, says the one that looks like a Jack Sparrow reject."

He frowned, but immediately resumed smirking.

"You have no right to talk to me that way. After all, you owe me big time."

I laughed.

" I don't owe you anything, jerk."

He leaned in, and whispered in my ear.

"Sweetie, I saved your life."

AN: Hope you all liked, tell me what you think (:
