Leave it to Fate

Deadly Confrontations

Nearly everyone was sleeping except the two men that were on watch. Everything seemed normal until they started to doze off. What they didn't know was that they were about to be boarded. Some strangers were making their way up to the deck and the two men on watch were sound asleep. They creeped around like shadows in the dark. Their faces covered so they could match the darkness of night. They were on a mission and that was to get a hold of someone or rather take custody of a certain captain. They were craving blood, and the blood they were craving was Emma Swan's. They creeped around and made it to Emma's cabin. They opened the door and there was our fearless captain resting on her bed like a daisy flower. The men stared her down and one of them took the blanket off which revealed her creme colored beautiful legs. But what was in store for Emma was all but pleasant.

Liam/Killian's POV
I was feeling uneasy so I decided to go up on the deck, maybe seeing the endless sea of darkness would ease my mind and I will go back to sleep. As I'm there I get a weird feeling like something is not right. I go see the two men on watch and they are asleep. "Hey wake up!" I yell. As soon as they wake up I hear commotion in Emma's cabin. I look at her door and it's open. Why would it be open, she never leaves the door open. I went and peaked inside. As soon as I gazed inside I saw four men surrounding Emma and they all had their eyes on her while she is sleeping. I got enraged because you could tell that she was in her night wear and I'm sure their thoughts weren't the purest. I went and rang the bell which warned everyone that the ship was under attack. Everyone in the ship wakes up and they make their way up here.

Emma's POV
I hear commotion and I start to toss and turn and that's when I hear the bell. My eyes shot open and I see four sets of eyes staring at me. I scream and that's when one of them grabs me. I try to break free and they cover my mouth. One man looks down at me and smirks. "Sorry Emma but the captain Graham of the interceptor is waiting for you." I try to scream and nothing. They start to tie me up and I kick one of them. I try to break free and nothing's working. I look at the door and I see Robin, Mr. Fitz and Liam. One of the men slaps me and I fall on the bed. He slapped me so hard that I sort of blacked but I could still hear the gasps from Liam and Mr. Fitz. I look up and my vision is blurry. I never thought that I was going to get attacked while sleeping. What a low move on that dirt bag to send his men while me and my whole crew were sleeping. There was no way that I was going to go with these men. He made his choice and I made mine. He just wants to turn me into the Indian authorities to make himself look better in front of the King. I start to untie my self and that's when a swarm of men storm into my cabin. I stood up and took off the gag that was on my mouth. I went and grabbed my sword and I started to fight with these men. I was honestly annoyed at the fact that I was in a tank top and super short shorts. Shoot the only one that has seen me like this is Mr. Fitz. I storm out the cabin and I knew all eyes were on me. I can see all my men eyeing me as they were fighting. It was bugging me that they were getting distracted. "Focus men!" I scream. After minutes of fighting it seemed like we were about to be beaten. Then the man I was fighting with kicks me in the stomach then the chest. I gasp for air as I fall to the floor and he kicks the sword away from my hand. "Graham is dying to see you Emma." I smiled and then scoffed. "Well he's going to have to wait a long time before he seems me on board his ship." I get up and I punch him. He punched me back and I spit blood. "You know it's of bad form to treat a lady like that." "I thought women like it when men get a little rough on them." I spit in front of him then scoff. I punch him and then he grabbed my arm and twisted it back. "Bloody Hell." I screamed with all of my might. He continues to punch me and I'm seriously losing my strength. I look around and all my men are falling as well. Could this be it, I thought to myself. In one of those times I get a dagger that I have hidden under the barrels near the cabin and I tried to stab him and he takes the dagger from me. He cuts my arm and I scream. He laughs. "Emma there's no way you're staying here." "Then I guess you'll have to kill me." He laughs. "That can be arranged." That's when I see him in arms length and I get pushed to the side and I fall to the floor. I look up and it was Liam. I see the dagger inside him. "No!" I scream. Liam doesn't make a single sound. He's just standing there and I see blood dripping from his abdomen. My heart broke into little pieces. No, Liam. I can't loose him I thought to myself. "Oh no it seems I have killed the man you love." He says with an evil smirk on his face. He takes out the dagger from Liam and Liam grunts. He looks at me and smiles then falls to the floor. I rush over to his side and I'm crying like crazy. He looks at me and smiles again. "You dummy head; why did you do that?" He reached for my cheek and smiled. "I couldn't let them hurt you and besides who cares if a crew member dies, this ship needs its captain." I smiled as tears were rolling down my face. I look down and Liam's eyes are closing. "No, no Liam please stay awake." He was drifting away. I look up at this man and I give him the deadliest of looks I have ever given anyone. "You don't know who you've messed with." He laughs and starts to mock me. "Oh boo hoo what are you going to do about it princess?" I grabbed the dagger and I slashed his legs. He screams. "Yeah that hurts don't it?" I scream. I hit him and I continued to punch Him non stop. "Mr. Fitz please help Liam." I scream as I knock the man to the floor. That's when the rest of my crew finally take down the rest of the men. "Tie them up and take them out for a wet and wild ride." I tie the man up and I pull his hair back and put the dagger on his throat. "You've heard stories about me haven't you?" I said as I breathed on his neck. He nods. "You want to know if they're real?" "I believe them!" He screams. "You know what I do to people that hurt the ones I love right? He shakes his head. I laugh. "Let's say it hurts a lot." I could feel him shaking. "Boats ready captain." I smile. "Get up." I scream and the man gets up. "Load him up in the boat men." They start to load them and I again whisper to the man. "Send Graham my warm regards and affections. Tell him that by attacking me and my crew while sleeping was a low move even for him. Give him my warm and bloody kisses. Lower them down." I push him into the boat and they lowered it down. We left it floating in the dark night as we sailed away. "Man your stations men, we need to get the hell out of here." Everyone starts to run around and get the job done. "Kyle man the wheel and keep the course to Garrington." He nods. "Aye Captain." I look over my shoulder and I see that Robin and Mr. Fitz are at Liam's side. "Take him to my cabin Robin." He nods. Robin takes him and Mr. Fitz starts to walk over there and I grabbed his arm and sighed. "Please Mr. Fitz save him." He smiled. "I will do my best." He walked inside and closed the door. I was in so much pain. All the bruises and cuts were killing me. Kyle comes and brings me a blanket and I kindly smile. "Thank you." I grab the blanket and wrap it around my legs. I look at the pool of blood on the floor and I couldn't help but feel enraged. I was so mad. I couldn't believe Liam did that. He does love me and I don't think that someone who risks their life for you, can honestly betray you. I have lived among pirates most of my life and the only thing that is more valuable to a pirate than treasure or rum is their own life and he risked his to save mine. My emotions were seriously going crazy and I wanted to cry but of course I had to suck it up. "Good job mates." I say as I get up. "Once everything is set everyone can go and relax. Kyle bring out the sutures and bandages for the wounded." He nods. "I couldn't be more proud of my crew." Everyone smiled and I made my way to my cabin. I stopped at the door and I was scared to go in. I do hope Mr. Fitz can save him. I walked in and the room was just silent. Robin walked over to me and I looked at him scared as can be. "Is he ok?" He stayed quiet. I nodded. "I'll be back," he said and left the cabin. "Mr. Fitz..." He looked up and sighed. "Emma he lost a lot of blood but I think he will make it as long as he rests." I sighed in relief. I look at Liam and he was out cold. I look at his face and I couldn't help but cry. This dummy head almost died. Mr. Fitz covered the wound with some bandages and looked at me and shook his head. "I need to treat your wounds." I nod and sit down. He treats all my cuts and bandages them up. He touches my chest and I grunt. "He got you pretty bad huh?" I nod. "Yeah it hurts when I breathe." He sighs. "You need a lot of rest just like our guest over here." "I can't Mr. Fitz..." "We still have a week's journey to go that's more than enough time for you to rest." I scoff. "Fine but you're in charge out there." He nods and walks out with all the bloody bandages and water. I sigh as I see Liam lying practically lifeless on the bed. I drag the chair over so I could sit by him. I grabbed a wet cloth and started to clean his face. Its funny how when I'm with Liam I just forget about everything. I forget about my revenge, my old life, everything. It's almost if time stops when I'm with him. I haven't felt that ever. I mean I loved Neal with all of my heart he was the love of my life but this was different. Usually when men want a woman they take her with no questions whatsoever but with Liam he wasn't just some guy. I wanted to know more of his past though. Why was he so desperate to leave Garrington, was his past just as cruel as mine, and he just didn't want to share it and have another go at a new life? So many questions but I hope by going back to Garrington I would get the answer to all of them including Liam's. I kissed him and I cried as my lips touched his. I hug him and I just stayed there at his side. After I let go, I get up and I covered him with the blanket and whispered in his ear. "Liam, I need you to get better, please." No movement whatsoever came from him. I went and sat down on the floor still in extreme pain as I leaned against the wall. I checked to see if Liam was still out and he was so that's when everything was coming out. I started to cry like crazy and I was scared out of my mind. I honestly thought I was going to die tonight. I just let myself cry and I just laid down on the floor and cried myself to sleep.
