"Look sweetheart I have a lot to do today so if you please cut me down we won't have a problem and I will forget this ever happened! Deal?"
"Hm well," she said dragging it out of making him hope more that she would let him free, "No I don't think so you have a big price on your head and would bring in a lot of cash for my lovely ship and crew right here."
"Look pirate," he snarled slightly startling her making her reach for her sword, "I don't have time for this and if you keep me on this ship, I will make your life a living hell!"
In one swift motion she had her sword out pushing against his neck which would startle most at how fast she was but he didn't even blink. "Listen here scavenger if you even think about trying to escape I will not hesitate to take off a couple of limbs," she said glaring down at the bored expression the criminal wore.
"I don't care you don't scare me and I would rather die than you take me to the Black Dragon Gang," he responded not caring that a sword was digging into his neck threatening that one word wrong word will kill him instantly.
She rolled her eyes and sheathed the sword starting to walk away when he mumbled something that she only caught one word coward. She was back at his cage in an instant slashing her sword through the cage, causing a slice on his shoulder.
He hissed at her when the sword hit him, knowing it was a warning sign of what he had said. Though he didn't regret it not a single word any time possible, they would leave the shore and his time limit of escape was decreasing. If he stayed on the ship, he would have to die before the gang got him so they didn't use him as bait.
She cleaned the blood off and walked away as curse words were thrown at her from the criminal she didn't care nor want his name his money would do. The pirate had heard the gang around here was powerful and she had to get off the dock before they found out one of their own was aboard the ship.

An hour later
He sat in his cage watching and planning an escape mostly appearing board knowing he already had his rope off his hands. Not that anyone had noticed nor would anyone except the Pirate Captain who to his luck was in her cabin preparing the course they would take.
He already analyzed that two more men than the ones in front of his cage watching him. But he didn't appear to move at all, which board them enough to play cards. One of his guards spit at the front of his cage, which was expected to bother him not that it worked well.
"Smith!" One man as far as he knew was the first mate.
"Yes, sir?" One guard at the post answered.
"Clean the desk I will take post," the First Mate said, eyeing me.
"Aye aye!" Smith answered, leaving to get the tools for cleaning the desk.
The First Mate walked toward him with curiosity. "So who are you?" The First Mate asked the criminal.
The criminal laughed at the question, not answering and sitting straighter blood leaking slightly from the open wound in his shoulder. "Does it matter?" He asked moving closer to the bars of the cage causing the First Mate to take a few steps back.
He let go of the bonds speeding through the bars he had opened before during the switch of the two guards. Before anyone could move, the criminal had one guard unconscious and the First Mate's sword against the mate's neck.
"For a First Mate and a pirate, you are slow in fights," the criminal said with a smile. He head butted the mate with the sword and dropped him as his body went limp fighting his way across the desk. Beating down the pirates until he came face to face with the captain of the ship.
"Look here just go back in your cell and I won't fight you," the Captain said staring down her captive, "I am not in the mood to fight and you don't want to piss me off more."
He didn't turn back and go into the cell. Straight past the Captain was his escape and nothing would stop him from reaching it. The criminal filing his sword forward and the fight began between two of the best sword fighters of the region.
They fought bravely but at the end of it The Criminal wasn't able to catch the sword before it struck his right eye. He screamed from the stabbing indescribable pain that ran through his eye. But to the surprise of the pirate he kept fighting slicing the pirate in the side causing her to lose the grip on her sword.
The criminal clutched his eye, pointing the sword in his hand at the Captain. "I won't kill you I am not in the mood of that today however if you even step near this land ever again I will kill you Captain!" The criminal responded picking up her sword and placing it in his sword sheath.
"What is your name criminal?" The Captain asked him as she pressed her bleeding side.
"You shall never know," He said walking off the boat without a care in the world then turned saying, "I usually would say see you next time but there better not be a next time unless you want to die. Goodbye Captain."
