Cross My Heart (a Philip and Syrena fanfiction)

Lonely Again

Philip's POV

I was back on the Queen Anne's Revenge again! I was glad that we didn't have the same Captain again. I didn't like Blackbeard much and Jack cleverly killed him in the Fountain of Youth.

I was told that my beloved Syrena was dead. Which made me really depressed. I didn't remember anything from that night when she saved me but apparently she died from saving me.

All I remember was me being dragged down the water and saved onto the land. And then a pile of mermaids chasing us through the village. I don't remember anything from that, I think I was knocked out.

Loads of sailors told me after wards that they thought Syrena was dead so I went and asked the other mermaids. I was a bit scared, knowing that they might eat me but I risked it.

They told me that they hadn't seen Syrena for a while. I thanked them and walked away. I knew that it had to be true that she was dead. Either that it she was missing. I doubt they she's missing because where should she be missing to.

So I decided to try and forget my sorrow and work back on The Queen Anne's Revenge.

I still didn't like it there however because the ship was very smelly, worse than before and the other pirates were treated very badly.

I knew I had to do something though, to keep Syrena off of my mind. And I guess this was the only way and in some ways it was better than being depressed all the time.

I knew it was going to happen one day that one of us was going to die, but I didn't expect it to be so soon.
