(22). Hide amongst cargo

To distract the Pirates I threw a rock in the opposite direction. Then swiftly moving through the cargo I slide into the slightly open box. Lucky for me this box was mostly full of straw. I nestled down into it pulling the lid closed just as the two voices began approaching again. Now in the dark again I sit with my thoughts. The box is roughly loaded before we set into a relaxing rhythm. My eyes are tired and I think it will be alright to sleep for just a few minutes. “We got him boss!”

I startle awake to bright lights shouting and the amazing creature from the crystal ball is rushing towards me. 

“Oh my love, thank goodness you are okay”

I tell the beautiful creature that I do not remember them

“It is okay, you will soon enough”

They hand me a vial with a red liquid 

“It will bring back your memories from before”

I immediately drink the liquid as it slips down my throat, the creature says you will be mine forever”.

I fall into blackness never to wake again.
