A Pirates Life (Khadashee and Draven)
(Khadashee) Khadashee held him tight in her arms. She felt his tears and together they cried. And it was in that moment she knew what she was going to do...what she had to. “Tell Mr. Eryc?to stop and reverse the ship. We are not going into port.”?She took his face in her hands. “I will not let us do this. This ship is our advantage. And I won’t lose it. I won’t risk it. I have to protect my family. We are not going in. We’re leaving. Now..” (Draven) Draven didn't hesitate in asking her if she was sure, it was what he was hoping she would eventually say. He released her from his embrace and quickly started barking out orders to the crew. In a matter of minutes, the sails were dropped, the wind catching them. The lines that were being lowered to the smaller boats were quickly pulled up. Draven took her by the hand and moved them both up behind the helm as he took control of his ship and the Serenity responded as if knowing she was suddenly being set free. The ship turned around with the wind and before long they were sailing quickly away from the port. He looked around to see what Sa'id and that ship would do. He ordered the cannons ready just in case. He wasn't going to lose anyone or anything today. Tag: Khadashee |

?Khadashee Khadashee stood at once gripping the rail so hard her knuckles turned white as the Serenity burst into a fury of energy. As the ship began to back up and away, her eyes landed on the man ?who had practically raised. ? Don’t do this, he mouthed. ? She tapped her chest twice with a fist. Since Sa’id had been her father’s trusted advisor, and so close to her family and her father he would know what the gesture meant… I'm sorry and I love you ? Sadness?filed Sa’id’s face just as the Serenity reversed and Draven pulled her away upto the hel, tears filled her eyes. Had she just condemned them to die…to run for the rest of their lives… she didn't know just knew that walking driving into such a place with a death sentence to him. ? When she heard him order cannons. She touched his shoulder. “Please no,” she whispered. But she could say nothing more or she would burst into tears. |

If they make the first shot. I am not losing you or my ship today." Draven told her as he watched his crew move precisely around the deck and everything ran like a well oiled machine. Everyone knew their place and what to do...it was clear why he had been a pirate captain for so long. Once the Serenity was turned completely around and sailing away from the harbor, did Draven look behind them to see what Sa'id or any other ship may be doing. Were they beginning to follow? He was ready for anything at this point. Tag: Khadashee |

He was ready for anything at this point. Khadashee Khadashee nodded but went quiet again. There was a visible tension in her body. The way she held her hand. Her stance. She was worried.? Sa’id did not follow. It wasn’t his place to anymore. However a figure joined him on the deck of his ship as the Serenity sailed away. The figure spoke to the people around him. And much like on the Serenity a fury of activity began. Activity the ended with Sa’id and his crew be taken into custody. |

(Draven) Draven had watched what was happening on the other ship with interest, but didn't comment on what he saw. Instead, he turned back to the helm and continued to steer them out of the harbor and into open waters. Once there he ordered all sails to be made full and within minutes, all the sails were dropped, opened with the full wind in them and the Serenity picked up speed.? Tag: Khadashee? |

Khadashee Khadashee sat quietly looking out at the sea before her. Her mind was turning, swirling as she sat and thought about all that she had been through...what was happening to her. She was pregnant. That much she knew now. And it was Draven's. She was sure she saw Bakari. And she was sure he had just imprisoned Sa'id. And it was because of her. She was going to have to live with that. Have to live with the fact that she had killed a man who practically raised her. She nibbled her lip. What has she done.? |

(Draven) Draven finished speaking with Eryc and his navigator. Damon has been let out of the brig and was now on deck, following the orders of some of the crew. He had seen the look on the lady's face and decided now would not be a good time to bother anyone. He would simply do what was asked of him. Draven saw that Damon was doing what he was told and quickly moved to Khadashee.? He took her by the hand, and lead her from the deck to their cabin. Once inside, he wrapped her in his arms and held her. He wanted to say something to her, but didn't know what to say. So simply just said, "I am sorry." He didn't know how she would interpret it, he didn't know what he was meaning, just felt that it was something that needed to be said. Tag: Khadashee |

?Khadashee Khadashee held him tight. She heard his words and pulled back to look into his face. She touched his cheek gently and kissed his lips. "You didn't do anything to be sorry for. That is unless...you are sorry you love me? Is that the case Draven? Are you sorry that you have become wrapped up in the drama that is my world...my life. If you are, I don't blame you. Feel free to cut your losses and either drop me off at the next port or cast me into a dingy to sail back to Djibouti, I would hold no ill will towards you if you." |

(Draven) Draven shook his head, "no, I just felt like someone should say sorry. How could I ever be sorry that I love you. You have become my whole world, so your drama is mine. Thick or thin, my love, we belong together." He gave her a gentle kiss before going to sit on the edge of the bed. "It has been quite an adventure so far. After all, that is what a pirate's life is all about. Exciting adventures." He said with a chuckle as he held out his hand to her. Tag: Khadashee |

She remained where she stood. She could not say what she knew needed to be said while holding him.The tears continuing to leave her eyes. She shook her head. “This is a fairytale. One where the damsel doesn’t get to live happily ever after.”? She paused to swallow back her pain of what she was about to say. “I will stay with Draven for as long as it takes to birth our babe. And once the child is two and walking. I must leave you...and go back...or else Bakari will always be searching for me. I won’t put out family at risk. You are all I have left.

And I will do whatever is required to protect you.” (Draven) Draven blinked at her, surprised by what he just heard her say. "No. If you want to know what Bakari wants, then we turn this ship around and head back to where we just left. I am not going to let you leave me and take our child with you. That is not going to happen. It would break me more to have that happen than to go and see this man now." He had stood back up at this point and was waiting for her response. He was deadly serious. He would head back up on deck and have the ship turned around if she decided that was going to be her plan. Tag: Khadashee |

Khadashee “Draven, I never said I was going to take the child with me.” She paused so he could understand what she meant. “I said I would leave...Just me.”? A tear slipped from her deep stormy green eye to roll down her cheek. ?“Beloved, Bakari is a king. He is sovereign where I’m from. If we go back there now, we have no idea what he would do. ?he could kill, throw you in irons. Kill me...or our baby or take you and give you to any government to stand trail for piracy or ?sell me and our child back into slavery. You know?we can’t go back there now. You know We can’t risk it. You saw what happened to Sa’ed” She placed her hands on her stomach. “This baby is our miracle. This baby is our love. This babe is our legacy. And I will not risk this life even before it begins. Our child will have a chance. Our child will be safe. You will be safe.” She said walking to him and putting both her hands on each of his cheeks Khadashee looked up into his eyes...taking his hand in hers and placing them on her belly. “I need you to agree ?to this,”?she pleaded. “I need you to love me like I have never been love before in life and let me love you the same way... for the time we have and then.. I need you to let me go. And raise our child to know that I love them so much. ?Please Draven. Please. I need you to agree to this.” She whispered tears falling from her eyes. “Please.” Kh

I need you to agree to this.” She whispered tears falling from her eyes. “Please.” (Draven) Draven paused as Khadashee crossed to him and explained that she would be the one to leave, without the child. He listened to her, but no, he couldn't bring himself to say that he would be able to let her go. "And if I refuse to let you go, then what?" He asked quietly. He couldn't fathom losing her. Even though he never loved his other child's mother, he knew where they were and even made sure they were being well cared for. "Khada, I do not know if I can agree to this. I love you too much to watch you walk away from your child...and me. Not after everything you have told me you have been through already with losing a babe. It is not fair to you. What if I could get you somewhere, where you and the babe would be safe and protected and left you there? I could return regularly to be with you and you would not have to leave your child behind."
