Captured

Chapter 9

Third persons POV
All you can hear through the streets of the Isle are the screams of a young princess. Two wicked pirates were dragging her. The blue-haired pirate smacks the queen's soon-to-be, knocking her out while accidentally cutting her left cheek.

The male pirate continues to drag her to their ship. Once onboard the vessel, they tie her to a large pole with the king of Auradon next to her.

When Ben sees the princess being dragged and unconscious, he builds up rage inside. There's blood dripping down the young girls face. Harry comes back with a dirty wet towel.

"What did you do to her?" He asks

"Nothing of your concern, benny boo", he answers, and Ben stays calm even though everything in him is telling him to rage.

"Harry, Uma, please, you don't have to do this. Be a part of the solution. Like I know you both can be. Let us go and come back to Auradon with us." He says honestly but also wants to get out.

Harry chuckles and shakes his head while letting Uma do the talking.

"Us? Be a part of your solution? No, I don't think so. We will get to Auradon on our own, and I can't wait to see what this baby can do. Only 30 minutes until you're both shark bait. She says, holding her mom's necklace, then walks away.

Harry leans down in front of Melody and not so gently wipes off her face. She doesn't move one bit but still breathes quietly. After wiping off her face, a medium-sized cut appears on her face.

"She needs help. Please let me help her. That cut is deep. If you untie me, I promise only to help her. I won't try to get out. Please, she needs stitches."
Harry shakes his head.

"You know what I need, matey?" He stands up and looks at Ben. "For you to shut up." Harry grabs a dirty towel and wraps it around his mouth so he can no longer talk. He struggles while Harry tries to tie it, but since there's no magic on the Isle, Harry is stronger and overpowers him. Once the towel is secured, and Harry laughs then walks away.

MELODY'S POV:
My head is pounding. My vision is blurry, and I can't move. Where am I?

"Mel, come on, wake up. We have to get you out of here," someone whispered.

My vision slowly started to come back. Seeing I am on a ship. The memories of last night begin to come back to me. I drank with Uma and Harry after challenging me to a drinking contest. I am guessing that I lost. I chuckle to myself. After chugging my drink, I ran, grabbed a sword, and headed back towards the salon. As soon as I got there, I saw Mal and Evie. They had their backs turned towards me. I went to say their names, but nothing came out; there was a hand covering my mouth.

Harry. It was Harry. He and Uma started to whisper threats in my ear. Then I was being dragged by my hair. The pain was excruciating. I screamed, and then Uma punched me, and that was the last I remembered.

Looking around the ship, I see no Pirates, and I see King Ben tied to the same pole next to me.

"Ben?! How did you get here? Are you okay?" I asked quietly. He nods

"I'm okay, and I should be asking you the same thing. You have a cut on your head. What did they do to you?"

"They got me drunk, and I tried to run, but they caught me right when Mal and Evie were within 10ft of me. They dragged me by my hair back to here while I screamed. Uma punched me, and I guess I passed out." After explaining that, he has a sad expression on his face.

"I'm sorry. None of this would have happened if I hadn't come or even wanted to. It's all my fault." I look away and cry. "You guys warned me, and I didn't listen." sniffling, I keep my head down, not being able to look at him.
