JanePoint of view
My legs were frozen, in place when I saw Woodes Rogers descending from the plank to reach the dock landing. Rogers was walking in threatening way towards me. I began to take a few steps back, because I did not want to be near by Woodes Rogers at all. But I soon, felt John grab hold of my shoulders to stop me from moving away from Woodes Rogers.
John: where do you think you're running off to lass? Look your charming fiancé is here to see you.
He teased, and kept firm grip on my shoulders. Which caused me to, gasp in pain, because I could feel his nails digging into my skin.
Jane: back off John!
I kicked my boot heel, into John groin which caused him to scream in pain. Which made, me to cover my ears from , his pain which he deserved.
Rogers soon got hold of me, when he roughly pulled my arm to bring me closer to him. I could feel his hard gaze onto me, even when he has not spoken a single word yet, I could seem in his eyes that he's is really pissed off at me.
Rogers: it seems, that you have learnt a nasty trick from those pirate scoundrels! Haven't you?
He snarled into my face, I tried to free myself from his tight grip, but he somehow resisted.
Jane: just leave me be!
Rogers laughed and shook his head, and he kicked me in the stomach, which made me yell in pain and atop what I was doing.
Rogers: oh Jane, do I need to remind you that your father has promised me to have you as your rightful husband. So, you have no choice, but to marry me only! You got that?
Jane: yes, I understand.
I obeyed and hung my head low in disappointment, knowing that I had no power over him at all.
John strolled over to us, and he shook his head to Rogers.
John: no sir, I'm afraid Jane doesn't understand at all.
He looked at me grinned victoriously, and my eyes widened in fear knowing what he was going to tell Rogers.
Woodes: tell me what you saw John, I want to know everything that you have saw and listened.
Woodes Rogers, demanded hastily and he grip on my wrist hardened even more.
John: well at the start, Jane followed your rules. However, the barmaid Anne Bonny, kept asking Jane about the name of her fiancé. Surprisingly Jane refused to give her that information the same was applied to James Kidd as well.
Rogers: I'm guessing there is a but, isn't it?
He said sternly, and looked at me in disgust.
John chuckled and nodded his head in amusement.
John: well sir, I wish you where there to see it. James Kidd, took her at the back of the Tavern, and Jane was all over him. Am I right Jane:
He teased, which was making things more worser.
Rogers glared at me, his eyes burned into my soul judging from his expression.
Jane: no no.. it was just a hug. I didn't kiss him, if that is what you think.
SMACK!!! Instead I received a hard slap across my cheek, which caused me to lose my footing.
But Rogers pulled me back by his single hand.
Rogers: hug or no hug, you clearly disobeyed my direct orders! You filthy pirate whore! Looks like you were enjoying, that scoundrel hands all over your body!
Jane: it's was just a friendly hug.
I tried to reason with him, as best as I could. But I knew, it was hopeless Rogers was a controlling man, and he did not like people talking back at him.
Rogers: oh really? Friendly you must take me as a fool Jane. I know that you still fancy that young assassin scoundrel! And I know he does as well.
He raised his hand, again and I flinched due to the pain from the same cheek again. Rogers slapped me again, and he yanked my hair.
Jane:stop it please!
I begged and cried out, I began to cry because he was abusing me again this time openly. However, it was night and there were hardly any people at the docks.
Rogers: don't tell me what to do! This slap was going to happen anyway, because I remember distinctly telling you to wear a dress. But instead, your wearing your pirate outfit, no doubt from that bastard Kidd!!
John coughed to break, the moment between us.
John: um boss, what happens now?
He asked eagerly, Rogers fumbled into his pocket from his leather coat. He threw a bag of coins to John, without taking his off me.
Rogers: Good work John, I'm giving you extra coin for doing your job well. I just need to speak to for a moment, then may leave me alone with Jane.. cause I will be having a pleasurable night tonight. Shame that pirate outfit, will be forced to come off, but I will get good view in the end.
His eyes travelled my from head down to my body, an evil smirk cause me to whimper knowing what he has store for me.
Rogers: come on love, let me escort you back to my cabin quarter for a rough night of your punishment.
I shook my head, as more tears were coming from my eyes. I tried to run away, from him knowing what he will do to me now.
John: now where, do you think you are going missy?
John grabbed me, and he pushed me back to rogers tight hold. Like I was just some toy or ball to be thrown.
Jane: NO, LET ME GO!!!
I screamed, and I was practically being dragged by Rogers.
Rackham: oyeee! Jane is that you?
My head shot up, in surprise. I recognised that voice, I turned around to see Jack Rackham walking towards us to the docks.
Jane: Rackham!!!
I shouted in happiness, I was about to run to him. Until I felt two storms arms wrap around my waist, rogers held me back preventing me to reach to Rackham.
Rogers: oh don't you think, you can run to that low life drunken pirate!!
He sneered isn't my ear, and I tried to kick and hold my position but he was to strong for me.
Jane: HELP!!!
I pleaded to Rackham, at the moment he was my only saviour either he could fight them off, or he could run and inform the others about me.
Rackham: Hey, that my lass favourite friend you're messing with!! You lay off or I cut ya!
He slurred as he threw his empty, bottle of rum at Rogers. Which almost, hit his face, but he soon dodged it in time, I knew Rackham was drunk and there is no way he would have the will power to face them off.
Rogers: John! See to it personally that you get rid of the scoundrel before he causes a huge scene!!
John nooded and, he ran after Rackham who was also running away. I believe, that he was running to the Old Avery tavern back to warn James, Edward and Anne of my current situation. I just pray to god, he gets there, in time before John gets a hold of him.
James Point of view
I soon made my way back at the table, where Edward and Anne were still sitting. I sat beside, Anne and I was lost into my own thoughts. Something wasn't right, when Jane left in a hurry it seemed like she saw a ghost and was in fear.
However, my thoughts was soon interrupted, when Anne poked me and Edward passed me a mug of rum.
Anne: so Jim, what where ya two naughty kids doing behind, the Tavern eh?
Anne wriggled her eyebrows, and she grinned at me and back at Edward.
Edward: ah James, ya didn't scare the lass away. Hence she has not returned.
My face remained neutral, and I gripped on the mug I was in no mood for a joke.
I shook my head, and sighed.
James: no, I didn't scare her off Edward and no Anne we didn't do anything. As much as I wanted to, to kiss her and have her against the wall and make her mine!
Before I could finish what I was about to say, Edward spit out his rum from his mouth which went everywhere on the table.
James: oh for Christ sake Edward! Have some decency!
I was pissed off, and Anne punched my arm while Edward continued to laugh.
Anne: Decency really James! Say the one who wanted to have sex with Jane behind the Tavern.
She scoffed and I chuckled and scratched my head realising what I have just said which was embarrassing.
Edward: Jaysus Kidd, I wasn't expecting you to say that. Which I found, hilarious by the way.
I shook my head in sadness, and stared at the empty tankyard in front of me.
James: but come on, she is engaged to her unknown fiancé and I need to respect her wishes. I still fancy her, and I know that she still fancies me, from the look on her face just says it all.
I hung my head low, and played with tankyard back and forth with my hands.
Edward: I feel your pain Jim, I know what it feels like when you cannot be with the person you love.
James: cheers mate.
I looked up at Edward, and I smiled slightly at him with a thankful smile. While Anne, rubbed my back, to comfort me.
Anne: oh James, I know that you both still love each other. But, we all can't get what we want I'm afraid.
We began to talk in general, until Anne eyes widened in shock.
Anne: wait a second, James you said unknown fiancé didn't ya?
She asked, suspiciously and pointing to me, she seemed to be in deep thought.
James: aye I did, she didn't mentioned the actual name of her fiancé to me though.
I replied to her, as I felt the anger coming from my voice, because I felt jealous of him. I stared into the distance, and took a long sip of the rum before slamming the bottle down on the table.
Edward: haha, Kidd I know what ya thinking. You're jealous aren't ya, well I can't blame ya I think it should have been you instead of the mysterious fiancé of Jane.
He laughed out loud, but was soon cut off when Anne gave him a death glare that could end his life.
Anne: piss off Edward, but James don't ya find this strange that Jane didn't bother to tell you the name of her fiancé.
We were all silent for a moment, and I scratched my chin in curiosity.
James: Anne, tell me something did you ask Jane who her fiancé is?
I asked and she shook her head in disappointment.
Anne: No, it's funny when she arrived here sat down and talked a lot . I asked her, her a couple of times of who her fiancé but she kept changing the subject purposely.
She complained, while having throwing her hands in the air in defeat.
Edward: hmm, something not right Jane is not like this at all.
Edward eyes narrowed, in suspicion as well.
James: your right mate, I think I'm starting to see the change of Jane behaviour. I did ask her twice, but her excuse was I wouldn't know him.
As soon as I said that, Anne gasped loudly and shook my right shoulder.
James: jaysus lass, are you gonna take my bloody arm off!
I scowled at Anne, for her unexpected reaction.
Anne: Jim, that's the same thing she said to me! That's it I know there something fishy going on with her new relationship!
She declared as she, was in a state of an upcoming battle.
Edward: I bet my bloody life, that Jane newly fiancé told her not to mention his name to us.
I stood up from my seat, and i started to see the connection of what Anne told me.
James: I bet, this mysterious fiancé has some history with us... or with me. I don't like this at all, mates I need to find out the real identity of Jane fiancé because I feel like that she is in danger from him!
I said and I tightened the handle of my sword.
Anne and Edward stood up, and Anne withdrew her musket.
Anne: I say we find her, and teach that bastard a lesson. I also, feel that Jane might be going through an abusive relationship with him.
This caused my eyes to flare, up with anger I will kill him if he lay his hand on her.
James: I swear, if I find any bruises on her, I will murder that cocksucker for laying his filthy hands on my lass.
Edward: come on, she can't have gone far, let's find her.
All of a sudden we heard, a loud shouting and a crowd of people being gathered below the steps of the Old Avery tavern.
Edward: what on Earth is going on, down there?
He asked slightly confused.
James: let's check out.
The three of us ran downstairs of the Tavern, until we heard familiar voices of Rackham, Vane, Ben Hornigold and Thatch.
Anne: ah shit, what the hell has Jack done now!
She shouted, and I chuckled and shook my head. Anne was the only woman, that could put Jack Rackham in his place they were a perfect couple just like me and Jane.
Me and Edward pushed through the crowd, and when we got to the front. To my surprise, I saw Jack Rackham with a busted lip which was streaming with blood. Who stood beside his first mate Charles Vane, who looked legit pissed and Blackbeard and Ben Hornigold held a man on the ground. Who's face was covered with blood, and was groaning in pain.
Edward: Jaysus, what happened here?
Edward demanded an answer, as he looked around to see everyone did not say a word.
Thatch pulled his sword out and, placed it sharply onto the unknown man chest.
Thatch: this man, thought he could come here, and beat up our fellow pirate.
I furrowed my brows, there was so,etching about this man who looked familiar.
Vane: I say we kill him, and show him to runs Nassau!! Next time Jack sober up, for a fight!
Vane kicked him, harshly onto this chest and laughed and drawn his musket from his holster.
Rackham stopped Vane before, he could shoot the man. The bullet shot rang, up in the sky.
Rackham: wait mate! Calm your breeches down! We need him alive for a moment.
Rackham protested, and took the musket from Vane hands.
Vane: what are ya playing at Jack? This bobbin wanted to kill ya remember we saved your life and now you want him alive!
I step forward, and came in between them.
James: hold on Vane, Jack did say for a moment.
I reasoned, with him while Jack was moving side to side like a drunk fool. But something tells me, that he wanted to tell us something.
Rackham: oye Kidd, I'm keeping him alive for ya to kill.
He patted my shoulder, and smiled at me, I raised my eyebrow wondering why would Rackham would want him alive for me.
James: why mate, what does this fool would benefit me?
Rackham laughed, but groaned in pain.
Rackham: he is one of Woodes Rogers, spy and he has something to do with Jane your lass mate.
James: WHAT!!
I yelled, which caused Jack yelp and rubbed his ear. Thatch growled at the man, with fumes coming from his windpipes I gave Thatch the nod to tell him todo what he does best.
Thatch: Kenway! Hornigold! Vane! Let's tie this son of bitch on that wooden plank!
Thatch commanded, and they wasted no time and forcefully dragged and tied a rope around his entire body.
Thatch: Give him hell Kidd! Makes us proud!
Thatch whispered into my ear, and patted my back. I gave him a devilishly smirk, Thatch was like a father figure to me he knew my father William and had always supported me even when I was becoming an assassin.
James: well well, another one of Rogers spy... or should I say Templar lap dog for Rogers!
I walked slowly towards him, and he tired to hide his face. I stopped and I quickly engaged my hidden blade and stabbed him near his artery as he yelled in pain.
James: first tell me, what's your name?
I sneered into his face, I punched him and I still had my blade into his flesh.
??: ah fuck... my name is John and I work for Woodes Rogers! Okay I told ya, let me go!
John, I remembered Ah Tabai speaking about John who was one of Woodes Rogers best men in the Templar order.
Edward: you think we just gonna let you go, your a Templar and also where have you taken Jane.
John smirked and laughed out loud, while leaning his head back on the wooden plank.
John: ye think I'm gonna tell you, easily! I know that I'm already gonna die by you scallywags!
I had enough and I removed my blade from his artery, and stabbed my hidden blade right into his stomach. Which made him yell in pain, and I removed my musket from my holster and shot John right into his knee.
James: you right there John! At the end of the day we are gonna kill ya! But I first I'm gonna torture ya to death, until you tell me where my lass is!!
John: by all means fuckin try! Whether if it's you Kidd! Or Jackass beard here! At the end of the day fuck you all pirates! And fuck all your mothers as well! You will get nothing out of me!
From this point, my rage was way beyond. I spat directly into his face and I began to choke the man to death, as John was coughing.
James: how dare ya say that to say to us!
I felt and pair of strong arms pull me back, I had enough of this prick!
Edward: easy Jim! He's just trying to get to your head!
Vane; let me kill the bastard instead!!
Edward pulled me back, and kept me away from John. While Thatch stopped Vane, from finishing him off for once and for all.
Thatch: the lad speaks truth! We need him alive so we can find out whereabouts of Jane! Also us pirates have heard a plenty of insults in our life!
Thatch started the face which was true, and he gave a look that could kill any man in a instant. John legs began to shake, and I grinned at his reaction.
James:now this is why, Blackbeard is one of most feared pirate of all time!
I said in a mocking voice to John, and the entire pirate gang laughed at my little short speech.
Rackham walked and he swayed his hips like a woman, which made me roll my eyes for his drunken state he is always is.
Rackham: Bloody hell lads! Let's just get to the point! Just kill the man, because I will tell ya where Jane is and who's got her! Cause I've seen her with my two eyes, that's why the punk attacked me because I went to get help from you lot!
Jack said, as he swayed his hands around I quickly advanced towards him and shook his shoulders at him. I was eager, to know where Jane was being held.
James: Rackham you better not be telling me about your drunk illusions mate!
I said sternly, Rackham shook his head and patted my my head like I was some damm angry little puppy.
Anne: you better not be, pulling a smoke pipe in my ass, aren't ya?
Anne crossed her arms and stood beside me.
Rackham: nah, not all. The truth is when me and Vane docked our ship. I decided to walk by myself, to clear my head while Vane was heading to the Tavern to find Thatch. Then, I heard raised voices coming from beside the docks, I saw walked closer and I recognised two familiar voices. One of them sounded like Jane and the other was Woodes Rogers fella! However I was right, I wasn't hearing things at all and I saw Rogers slapping and kicking Jane in the stomach, he was yelling at the poor young lass for not obeying this rules. I couldn't make out the other words he was saying, but all I could hear was fiancé. I yelled at him, and tried to fight my way to aid Jane as he was dragging her away, but you all know me I was to drunk to put up a big fight. Jane yelled for me, but Rogers sent this Johnny boy to kill me off, so I ran and luckily Thatch, Horingold and charming Vane, and they got the bastard for me.
Rackham stated, and patted Vane face in way of saying thank you. Vane pulled back in disgust, he didn't lied to be touched. However, my eyes were boiling with rage, and pulled my sword out. After hearing what Rackham, said about how Rogers treated my lass wanted me to burn the entire place to the ground.
Anne: you gotta be shitting me, Rogers is the fiancé of Jane! It all makes sense.
James: ROGERS!!
I yelled and I started at John, and performed a headshot on his face which caused his face to be splatted into pieces.
Everyone remained silent, because no one hasn't never seen me be this angry and brutal in my life. I wasted no time, and ran straight to the docks, I had to save her no matter what.
Edward: come on lads! Let's quickly head to the docks, and kill and plunder Rogers ship to death!
Everyone cheered, and all held their swords in the air. While I continued to run and the others ran behind me trying to catch up with me.
I have a nasty habit of making one shots too long. So, the next chapter will be the very last part of this oneshot storyline.
