Treasure (Jim Hawkins x Reader)

Chapter 5

The group walked through the door, not realizing they had triggered the alarm. Inside, was the rumored treasure of a thousand worlds. Loot as far as the eye could see, far more than anyone could have expected to see. They would need a bigger boat for sure. "This all seems...very familiar. But I can't remember why." Said B.E.N. nervously. While the pirates were distracted Jim turned back to the robot and Y/n. "Come on, we're getting out of here." He tells them. "And how are we going to do that?" Y/n asked. Jim looked past her and smirked. "On that." She turns and sees a longboat. The three hurried to the boat, B.E.N. could shake the feeling of unease for some reason. "There's something, nagging at the back of my mind! I just can't figure out what!" He says frustratingly. "Do you think it has something to do with, this." Y/n waved her good arm exaggerating the area around them.

"I...maybe??" B.E.N. shrugs. He then yelps, hopping back slightly. Y/n turned to see a corpse, resting on a old throne. "Captain Flint?" Y/n squints her eyes. "In the flesh! Well, sorta." Said B.E.N. "Anything clicking B.E.N.?" Y/n asks "There was something horrible that Flint didn't want anyone knowing about. But, I just can't remember what. Oh a mind is a terrible thing to loose." Jim looked around until he spotted something. "B.E.N. I think I just found your mind." He picked up the scrap of metal and attached it to the back of the robot's head. "Whoa! Hello!" B.E.N.'s eyes turned from green to blue. "You know Jimmy, I was just thinking...I was thinking! Oh it's all coming back!" He says happily. "That's wonderful B.E.N." Y/n smiles brightly. "Yes all flooding back! All up until Flint ripped out my memory circuits so I would never tell anyone about his booby trap!"

Suddenly there was a violent rumble that shook the ground. "Speaking of which..." Y/n managed to catch her footing as a second rumble came along. "Fling wanted to make sure no one could ever steal his treasure, so he rigged this whole planet to blow, higher than a Kalepsian kite!" With another rumble the ground began to break open, the lasers above broke off of their holds, crashing down making the ground brake open faster. "Jim, we gotta go!" Y/n yelled. "You two go back and help the captain and Doc!" Jim crawled under the boat's hood and fiddled with the wires. "If I'm not there in five minutes, leave without me!" B.E.N. grabbed at Jim's legs and tugged. "I am NOT leaving my buddy Jimmy!" Jim glared at B.E.N. intensely. "Unless he looks at me like that, bye Jim!" He lets go and runs off. "Well I'm not leaving!" Y/n crouched down to his level. "Not without you!"

"Y/n, we don't have time for this! Hurry and get back to the ship!" Jim said, not looking away from the controls. "I can't do that Jim! What if you don't make it in time, what then? I'm suppose to leave here with everyone, knowing I could have helped you?" Tears started to form in her eyes. Jim glances at her, and noticed her desperate expression. He placed his hand on hers and squeezed it slightly. "Have a little faith in me Y/n." He smiles. "I'll make it out of here, we all will. And you can help me, by getting to that ship and getting the others out of here." Y/n sighs shakily, bur returns the smile. "I do have faith in you. But I can't just leave you here alone. Now let's get this boat running!" Y/n helped Jim hot-wire the boat. "Whoa, impressive." Jim smirks.
