None of the pirates seem to notice me as their eyes are trained on the castle. This buys me enough time to creep back into the stables. Just as I turn, a branch breaks underneath of my foot. That's when all hell breaks loose. I bolt towards the horse outside the stables as a group of the pirate fleet charge towards me. My hands fumble and shake as I untie the reigns from the post. I have been told in the past never to go into the forest under any circumstance. However, when it's down to my life or breaking a rule, of course I'll choose my life! I kick the horse enough times it begins to canter away from the men.
The forest is dark and usually filled with so many sounds, yet it is sickeningly quiet today. The horse slows to a trot and seems to be uneasy about wherever we are going. Great, just what I need. Something flashes in front of me, causing the horse to rear back, throwing me to the side. Instead of landing in a pile of leaves, I'm swept skyward, entangled in a net. Prefect. I flail hoping that maybe in a stroke of luck I can break the branch or create some type of hole I can escape from. But the way my luck has been going today, I highly doubt this will happen.
"There's no use in struggling, lass." a deep voice chimed in the mist of my struggle.
I freeze, unable to see whoever the man speaking is.
"The only way you're getting down is through me. I can't just give you something for nothing."
"What do you want? I don't have anything to give."
"Oh, but you see love, you do." The man behind the voice emerges from behind one of the trees. He's one of that pirate horde obviously by the way he's dressed, yet he seems different. His blue eyes somehow comfort me and put me at ease.
"I'm not giving you anything until you at least tell me your name!"
"Names can come later, right now I need you on the ground."
"I thought you said-" oomf. The net smacks the ground.
"Sorry the landing's a bit rough." he smirks.
"What is your problem?"
"It's nothing personal love, I just need your help taking back what is rightfully mine."
"Look, I'm sorry but if it's money you want I can't help you."
"That's alright, what I seek isn't money. Let's head back to my ship and we'll erm... discuss the terms of your ransom."
