Treasure (Jim Hawkins x Reader)

•

The ship had left the port and was up in the air. Jim couldn't help but be infatuated by the vastness of space. "It's beautiful isn't it?" Jim turned his head to the source of the voice. It was Y/n, she didn't take her eyes of the starry plain. "It is." Jim says as he looks ahead again. "Is this really your first time being out here?" Y/n asks. "Yeah. I've been on Montressor since I was born." Jim tells her. "Must have been boring. I can't imagine a life where I'm held up in only one place." Y/n rest her chin on her hand. "Heh, it kinda was." Jim said while rubbing the back of his neck. "But I found a way to keep myself busy. Mostly with the solar suffer I made." What he said seemed to catch Y/n's attention. "A solar suffer? You built a solar suffer?" Y/n's shines with interest.

"Yep, I made my first one when I was like eight. Then I messed up and had it taken by some cops, cause I was zooming through a restricted area." Jim chuckles. "Really now?" Y/n continues. "I remember when I first built one, you couldn't get me off that thing." She leans on the rail of the ship. "Tell ya what!" She looks at him, smiling brightly. "You seem like a pretty cool guy Jim, so how about after this whole expedition, me and you make a brand new solar surfer? She continues. "Bet it would be the best one ever made!" Jim couldn't refuse an offer like that. "Sounds good. If this goes right, we'd have enough money to make it right." Y/n laughed at that. "Please, I could make a good solar suffer without money. Just gotta find the right parts is all."

"Jimbo!" Silver walks over to the two. "I got two new friends for you to meet." Jim glances around, trying to figure out who he's talking about. "Meet Mr. Mop, and Mrs. Bucket." Silver tosses an old mop and bucket over to Jim, who caught them both with a groan. "Get to it, and you lass." He says to Y/n. "Better get busy yourself, don't want the captain throwing you overboard for being lazy." Y/n rolls her eyes. "Gotcha Silver." She walks off. "See ya Jim." She waves him off. Jim sighs and starts mopping the deck.

"Yeah I got your mop." He mutters before getting bumped into by a large alien, who looked a little cross eyed. "Watch it, twerp!" The muscle head growled. Jim held his tongue, knowing that he wouldn't have been able to take on that guy. He glances over at a pair of ruffians whispering amongst themselves. One of them noticed and gave him a glare. "What are you lookin at weirdo?" The man's head hopped off of his body. "Yeah, weirdo." Said the torso. Jim then heard a hissing sound from above him, he looked up to see a spidery creature slowly crawling down. "Cabin boys, should learn to mind their own business."

"What? You got something to hide, bright eyes?" Him said smugly. The spider didn't take that kindly, he grabbed Jim his shirt collar. "Maybe your ears, don't work so well." He hissed. Jim scrunches up his nose in disgust. "Ugh, too bad my nose works just fine." The spider growls and slams him against a near by pillar roughly. The fellow bandits amused by this, shouted different ways to rough up Jim. This caught the attention of Y/n. "Any last words, Cabin boy?" Y/n clenched her fist and started to hurry to his rescue before-"Mr. Scroop..." Silver has gripped onto the spider's claw with his robotic hand. "You ever see what happens to a fresh purp...when you squeeze real hard?" Silver tightens his grip on the spider, making him yelp in pain and let go of Jim.

"What's all this?" Arrow walked up to the scrap. "I'll have no brawling on this ship! Any further offenders, will be confined to the brig for the remainder of the voyage!" He says sternly. "Am I clear Mr. Scroop?" Scroop glares at Arrow, he felt Silver's threatening stare. "Transparently..." He hisses slightly. Arrow then takes his leave. The bandits went about their business. "Jimbo! I gave you a job!" Silver scolds Jim. "Hey, I was doing it before that bug thing-" Silver cut him off. "Belay that! Now, I want this deck swabbed spotless! And heaven help ya if I come back and it's not!" Silver calls over Morph. "Keep an eye on this pup, let me know if there are anymore distractions." Silver walked off, leaving Morph in charge of Jim. Y/n waits for Silver to pass her before heading over to Jim.

"You ok?" She asks softly. "I'm fine." Jim mutters before picking up the mop. "Silver isn't all bad you know...He's tough on the newbies." Y/n walks around him so she could face him properly. "But I have a feeling he's a huge softy on the inside. But don't let him know I said that, he'll have my other arm." She chuckles, Jim looks at her confused. "Oh, he didn't take my arm if that's what you're wondering. This was a horrible accident." She looks at her robotic arm.
