Awaking with a gasp, I see an unfamiliar ceiling before me. "I'm not dead?!" I shout as I sit up. Quite alarmed for having just woken up, I jump out of the rather uncomfortable bed and onto my bare feet. ....my bare feet? Looking down at my feet, I'm startled to find my shoes gone. Still utterly confused about absolutely everything, I look around the room only to find I'm in some sort of cabin from a ship. Just as I'm recounting the events, I suddenly hear a group of voices from beyond the wooden door.
The doorknob jiggles, and I'm startled into action. Holding up my fists just in time, the door opens and the woman from last night, the one who kidnapped me, enters with a man I've never seen before.
"Oh," She exclaims with delight, "you're awake."
Attempting, but unfortunately failing, to regain my composure, I stand up straight and clear my throat. "If it is money you desire, then I have nothing to give."
"Oh, my dear," the female pirate chuckles, "It's not money we desire, but you."
Feeling my stomach drop, I clutch my gown and worry if they plan to kill me, or worse. I'm not sure what worse would be, but they're pirates so I can only imagine. "M-Me?"
