Calypso's Rage ~ 18

Calypso's Rage
Eighteen
    Once she was properly dressed I took her back up on to the deck. She stared amazed at the sea colored by the sunset, "Its lovely."
    I smiled and started to sing: "Come all you young sailor men, listen to me,
And I'll sing you a song of the fish in the sea.
And it's-"
    The rest of the crew joined in: "Windy weather, boys, stormy weather, boys.
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes."
    The girl watched with shining eyes as someone else started up the next verse: 
"Up jumps the eel with his slippery tail,
Climbs up aloft and reefs the top sail."
    I smiled at the girl as everyone continued the shanty, "You seem to enjoy the sea."
    She nodded, "I love the sea and the feeling of a happy ship is one of my favorites. Though I've only seen something like this while at sea on a pirate ship."
    "Pirates are often like this. We are people that live how we wish and regret nothing."
    "Well said Captain Caspian."
    "You know I don't think its very fair that you know my name and I don't know yours."
    She chuckled, "I'm Sophia."
    "I'm amazed a girl can have so many beautiful things."
    She blushed again "Thank you."
    "We are heading to a port that is known to have pirates. I need to meet with the meet with the woman in charge of the town tomorrow morning. She may be able to help you with whatever you need or you can leave once we reach port."
    The sun vanished beneath the horizon and I looked up at the stars. She didn't say anything so I added, "You don't have to have an answer until we reach port. For now you can sleep in my cabin I just request you don't dig through my things to much."
    She laughed quietly then asked, "But then where will you sleep?"
    I smiled, "Not everyone can sleep, someone has to watch the ship."
    She thought about it then nodded and went back to my cabin. I turned back to the sea as most of the crew went to their own beds. We reached port before the night was through. Once we had docked the rest of the crew went to bed. But I stayed on deck mostly because I was unable to sleep with the thoughts of my visit to Garrison in my head.

Calypso's Rage ~ 17

Calypso's Rage
Seventeen
    Click
    Garrison froze. One of my pistols was underneath his chin pointed at his head. The click that caused him to freeze was me putting the cock into position.
    "Sorry Garrison but I don't plan to become a piece of your collection"
    He pulled his hands away from me and put them so I could see the palms. I moved away from him but kept the gun trained on him.
    He smiled despite the gun, "This is why I find you interesting Caspian. You're beautiful with your cold expression. Your composure is so solid as if everything is within your calculations so nothing surprises you."
    I ignored what he said and asked, "Is there anything else you wanted to talk to me about?"
    He shook his head.
    "Very well. I'm leaving then and the girl that you kindly showed to me is coming."
    For a moment anger flashed across his features than was gone, "I had no idea you took to her."
    I shrugged and stood up. He didn't follow me but he said, "Until next time Caspian."
    I didn't turn to look at him, "Only if you call on me again."
    I was leaving the room when I heard him mutter, "I wonder what you would be like if your composure was taken away."
    I could feel his heated gaze on my all the way back to the ship. Jack and Rex were already on board talking to the girl. I jumped on to the ship and we immediately set sail. Rex took the girl to my cabin and Jack came to me.
    I finally allowed myself to shutter at Garrison's last words which echoed in my head. Jack didn't say anything just stood by my side.
    Eventually I asked, "Did the girl give you trouble?"
    "No. She was glad to get away from Garrison. She wants to talk to you."
    I nodded and headed towards my cabin, where Rex was watching the girl. Once Rex saw me he left me alone with the girl sitting on my bed. She looked up and smiled at me.
    I smiled back easily settling into the normal Caspian. "I'm glad to see some color has returned to your pretty face."
    She blushed, "Th...Thank you. I'm very grateful that you saved me."
    I chuckled, "Your voice is just as pretty." more red filled her face, "Are you still wearing what I saw you in before."
    Her head bobbed
    "Alright then lets get you out of that get up. I may a pirate but I'm not inclined to leave a lady in attire she doesn't wish to be in." I started pulling girl clothing out of my closet
    She smiled again, "You are nothing like the Captain Caspian I imagined. Truthfully I was worried when I was told you were the visitor I was to impress."
   "I have been told that I have many sides. I suppose this is just the side I reserve for the ladies."

Calypso's Rage ~ 16

Calypso's Rage
Sixteen
    Garrison stroked the girl's hair gently but the look in his eyes made me want to shoot him. But I controlled myself and said, "So you called on me to show me another piece of your collection that you can't show to anyone else."
    Garrison laughed, "Oh no I just wanted to use the opportunity to show her off."
    I was barely covering my hate and just waited for him to continue but he turned to the girl and muttered something in her ear. She nodded and keeping her eyes down she walked over to me. I expected her to ask me a question or sit next to me but she sat on me. I had to adjust how I was sitting so she would be comfortable and not accidentally fall if I suddenly moved.
    Garrison's eyes twinkled in anticipation. To prevent myself from glaring at him I turned back to the girl surprised to see she was my age if not slightly younger. This up close I could see that she was hiding some shame and that she could become a beautiful woman. Her clothing was thin enough where I could tell that her body was also thin with very little muscle or fat.
    I knew then what Garrison wanted from Caspian, but I was not attracted to this girl I just wanted to kill Garrison. So I tapped Jack on the arm. He bent down and put his ear to my mouth.
    "I command that we get her away from him." I whispered
    Jack nodded and returned to his position. I moved the girl so I would have a clearer view of Garrison as well as easy access to my weapons. When I looked at Garrison I could see the disappointment.
    "If you don't mind, Garrison, I would like to get to the point."
    He nodded not at happily as before and the guards returned to take the girl away. Jack and Rex also stepped out of the room. Once they were gone Garrison sighed, "Have you heard of the resent disappearances of ships."
    I shrugged, "Yes but only that Navy ships have vanished."
    "Its more than just Navy ships. Some pirate ones have as well. I talked to a fisherman about one of the disappearances and he said that day a storm came and seemed to swallow the ship."
    "Swallow?"
    He nodded "One moment they could see the ship the next it was blocked by the storm. Once the storm went away the ship was no longer there."
    I thought about this and he sighed. I looked at him again and he stood. I didn't move as he walked over to me and sat back down. We sat in silence for a moment then he finally muttered, "Your very interesting Caspian."
    "Why?" I asked hesitantly
    he leaned into me, "You showed no interest in the girl, why is that Caspian?"
    "I didn't come for entertainment." I replied
    He grabbed my chin and pulled me towards him. Surprised at his quickness and strength I didn't try to get away. "Why are you so beautiful, Caspian?" He breathed in my face causing me to flinch, "What I wouldn't give to keep you."

Calypso's Rage ~ 15

Calypso's Rage
Fifteen
    "Garrison," I greeted my tone harsh
    His eyes twinkled as I stepped off my ship and I had a feeling that this wouldn't be one of the better visits. Jack and Rex didn't say anything but they watched Garrison's every move and glared at his guards. Garrison ignored them as his gaze swept over me. Goosebumps crawled up my spine but I managed not to shiver.
    "As always Caspian, an air of beauty and youth follows you making you seem almost doll like." Garrison said and I swore there was lust hidden within the envy in his eyes.
    "I can see the jealousy in your eyes, Garrison." I warned
    He chuckled, a sick sound, "My apologies it wasn't my intention to anger you. But I cannot help but wish..."
    He trailed off but the way the hands at his side moved as if to touch me almost made me gag.
    "What is it you called me for Garrison. I have other things I need to attend to and do not have time to spend on pointless talk."
    Garrison nodded, "Of course, if you would follow me."
    He led the way up to his house. His guards waited for Jack, Rex and me before following. I hated having them around us but I tolerated it. Once we entered the house they didn't stick to us as closely but that relief was quickly squashed as we entered Garrison's trophy hall. It contained souvenirs from the days he played pirate, and sounded a lot more normal than what it was. Garrison's "souvenirs" weren't trinkets. They were things that ranged from living things to once belonged to something living.
    I glared at the back of Garrison's head so I wouldn't glance at the things around me. As we approached the room at the end of the hall I steeled myself for the surprise of the trip. Garrison's eyes lit up as he opened the door to a normal room. Suspicion filled me as I looked around the room but it only contained a place to talk, windows and more doors.
    Garrison walked into the room and I followed, "As you know I always have my latest prize in this room to show off to guests. But my latest one is...ah...not something meant for all of my guests."
    He clapped his hands and through a different door came two of Garrison's guards carrying chains that led to a girl dressed up in a thin costume that held no warmth. One chain was connected to a collar on her neck the other, longer one, was connected to her wrists. They connected the longer chain to the wall closest to the sitting area and removed the other chain before leaving.
    Garrison smiled gleefully and led the way to the sitting area. Garrison sat down first and I sat down across from him but Jack and Rex remained standing behind me. Garrison motioned and the girl sat down next to him. The metal pieces on her outfit jingled and she looked scared and nervous.
