Jack looked puzzled "Do I know you? I must. I know all the women around these brothels!" He said in a cheery voice. She glared,

"Brothels? This is a convent!" She yelled while slowly backing away in fear. "I've seen your wanted posters. You are a bad man!" She said with hate.

She took a breath to scream, but just before she could get the sound out jack lunged and pinned her down on the bed with his hand over her mouth.

"Shhh." He warned her. Angelica just stared at him with wide eyes.

Her father had told her about Jack. He told her the legends that his compass does not work as many do, and that he needed it. She had agreed to help him, not knowing how she would ever find him, or get him on the ship.

Jack broke her thoughts,"I won't let you go unless you promise to be silent." He brushed some hair out of her face. Angelica had had enough of this scoundrel. She brought her knee up hard into his groin causing jack to let go of her and crumble to the ground.

Angelica jumped off the bed and regained her dagger, pointing it at jack in a defensive stance.

Jack, still doubled over, managed to mutter in a very high pitched voice, "nice one, love." Angelica just stared at the pirate.

A knock at the door made her jump. "Miss teach?" One of the sisters called from the door.

"Get in the closet!" Angelica whispered hurriedly. She pushed jack inside and closed the door putting on a fake smile before she opened her door. She found a less than happy Sister Margret.
