Rina was starting to wake up. She heard the sound of footsteps. Instantly tensing but then she heard a different sound. Sounded like someone opening boxes. She bit back a groan. What if it was HIM? He was far worse than any pirate in her opinion. Pirates believed in parley. Lord Orion of the Royal Navy believed in pain in his way or the highway. She never was very good at playing his way. So she often received pain. Which only made her even more disobedient. Very firey and fiesty despite the years of abuse. His abuse fueled her to fight more. To be stronger than her mother and survive. She had managed to keep out of the lord's sexual touches but that was only because she would kick him where it hurt.<br/><br/>She felt movement of the ship and a groan escaped her lips. She was covered in whip marks and bruises. His last beating before she escaped. Escaped wearing mens clothes, an oversized jacket and a floppy hat which hid her features. Her crate was the last one. She winced as the crate moved. She saw light but closed her eyes. She was going to die. She was sure of it. The sound she heard wasn't the heavy breathing of Lord Orion. No...it was probably a good thing yet she wasn't sure how much better the new sound was. Her oversized coat moved with the fabric she was laying on. It was only supposed to be a few minutes. Now what would happen? She closed her eyes. Maybe they weren't too far from shore. Yet she was certain that was far from accurate. At least if she didn't lose the hat she would be able to maybe pass as a boy. Even though she had breasts the baggy mans shirt hid them well.<br/><br/>The only thing that would give her away would be her voice...or her face. Which is why she had the oversized floppy hat. To hide her face. She moved again. Her body not wanting to move which had her groan again. Trying to will her body to listen. Her eyes filled with the tiredness her body felt. She was probably going to die. Be thrown overboard if the crate had gone out to sea on some ship. The only valuables she had was a treasure map she had stolen and a small bag of coins she had saved up. Maybe that would keep her from being killed.
