ADRIEN'S P.O.V

(Reader will start were they see the visions and (s/c) is skin color)
I was swimming peacefully till Gold was right in front of me her (e/c) eyes shone brightly, her (h/l) (h/c) hair framed her face beautifully. Under the full moons gaze I gently place my hand on her cheek and start to lean in but once I blinked my precious captain was gone, disappointment fills my being as I know the that the reality I wish I can be in will never happen. These dark thoughts continue to plague my mind until a soothing mother like voice called out to me saying, "This is the one you love, I will grant you a gift which you are to give to her."

I slowly lift my gaze to the bright full moon expecting to see the body of the figure who cast such a cruel illusion on me as I replied with, "Why are you doing this?"

"Why it's simply everyone deserves a little love. So swimming in my waters of the tears of love that I shed will show them their love so they know happiness is out there for them in this crazy world." As her voice fades into the gentle breeze I stayed silent as darkness starts to surround my vision like the dark mist of sleep that I often look to for the mother I lost and the love that went with her. As darkness consumed me I felt like I was being transported to a new location for I no longer felt the natural heat of the water or the slight cool breeze, but rather a weight on me almost that of an another person because the weight kept shifting until it was suddenly dropped onto me with a harsh force. My eyes shot open out of the instinct of self preservation but what I was greeted with the Captain's picturesque face next to mine her (e/c) eyes widen in shock, her cheeks were slightly reddened and her hair fell flawlessly into place. Gazing deeply at one another while we held each other in our arms we slowly began to lean in, our eyes slowly closing, as our breaths started to mix and lips ghosting over each other a sudden loud explosion came from where the ship was stationed. 

We both jumped up and spotted our clothing neatly folded in two separate piles on the soft green grass in the sun, hastily we threw on our clothes and ran to the beach at our top speeds not knowing what we will find once we do reach the ship.

~time Skip~

When the ship came into view shock filled my body seeing the ship ensnared in vines covered with various colored flowers, as I scan the surroundings I see several of what I think are pods scattered around the bright, yellow beach. Still frozen with shock and intrigue in my peripheral vision I saw Gold rush past me with her beautifully crafted cutlass drawn, heading straight for the the pods, she began cutting the vines away and to further deepen the shock their was one of her crew members in the pod bound tight enough to restrict movement but loose enough for them to breath I couldn't tell what their expression was when the vines came and recovered the opening that Gold had created. Seeing that her attempts were working to some degree I rushed to her side and began freeing the crew members with her one by one making sure they were okay before having them join us in freeing the others who have gotten themselves trapped. We managed to free more then half of the captive crew members when suddenly vines sprouted out of the ground and began to re-encase the crew members we already saved. Out of pure fright of what I was witnessing happen to Gold's crew I stumbled back to where the captain was, we quickly glanced at each other this gave the vines enough time to encircle us before striking out of the sand and tying themselves tightly around our ankles and working up, successfully trapping us together tightly like the pods from before only now there were two people trapped. 

As the vines continued to tighten it's grip on us restricting our movements further Gold looks me dead in the eyes and says with determination in her voice, "Close your eyes so I can get us out of here."

"Why am I required to close my eyes?" I question, looking at her (s/c) face to see if she could reveal anymore answers to me but the only answer I saw was fear in her eyes for a split second.

"Because I don't want you to be scared of me." She answered, while her gaze turned away from me no longer giving me a clear idea of what emotion was present as she spoke.

"Just so you know I will never be scared of someone who's kindness shines through the darkness." I said, while gently closing my eyes. My hearing and sense of touch was heightened along with my smell as I await for her to give me permission to open my eyes once more to see her in all her angelic, glory and no matter what she says she will never frighten me for I can see that she doesn't want to hurt anyone. the life she has lived so far must've been cruel to her if she has learned to kill with out remorse, to feel the need to have armour covering her heart only allowing her crew to enter but only to certain places.  

"You might change your mind though." She whispered, in my ear. I wanted to respond to tell her that she has nothing to worry about, that I'll be there to help her when she ever needs it, but that was denied immediately when I felt one of her hands on my cheeks. Suddenly something soft and warm was gently placed on my lips stealing my breath away before...
