CHAPTER 8

Bree is standing on the top balcony of the stairs, looking out at the Isle when she hears Jay's voice causing her to roll her eyes. Of course she and Mal couldn't be left alone.

"Come on," Jay says as he grabs a rock before throwing it at the 'danger flying rocks' sign, opening a gate.

"Wish me luck," Ben says.

"All the way up," Jay tells him.

"Good luck," Evie calls after him. Bree gives Ben a hug as he reaches her before she points inside then heads down the stairs.

"Bree," Jay says with a smile when she reaches the bottom of the stairs. Bree hugs all of them before they wait for Ben.

"So? Where's Mal?" Evie asks as Ben comes down the stairs before the gate closes behind him.

"She's not coming back," Ben answers her before walking away. Bree follows after her brother since she knew how hurt he must be.

"Ben, wait," Bree says stopping her brother. "We don't need to stray from the others. There's no telling who is lurking out here."

"You should listen to the princess," Harry says as he walks out the shadows causing Bree to gasp.

"Ben, lets go," Bree says as she pulls her brother just to end up trapped by more pirates.

"Take them," Harry orders before Ben is grabbed and Bree tries to fight the pirates away from her. Harry had admit that he liked her fire. Gil is then able to grab Bree and hold her still.

"Let us go," Bree says as she glares at Harry.

"Let you go?" Harry asks. "I don't think so. Uma wants to have a chat with the king." Harry moves some of the hair out of Bree's face with his hook causing Ben to struggle. "Take them to the ship. And you better not harm a single hair on her head." Bree looks at Harry pleadingly as she and Ben are taken away.

"Guys! Where's Ben and Bree?" Carlos asks as he looks in the direction that they went.

"Ben? Bree! Ben!" Evie calls before noticing someone walking towards them. "Ben, don't scare us like that."

"Don't scare you?" Harry asks as he reveals his face. "But that's my specialty."

"Harry," Evie says.

"What did you do with Bree and Ben?" Jay asks him.

"Oh, uh, we nicked them. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And if you want to see them again, have Mal come to the Chip Shoppe tonight. Alone. Uma wants a little visit," Harry explains. "Aw, Jay. Seems like you've lost your touch."

"Hey!" Jay says as he starts forward. Carlos holds him back. Harry walks away before they start climbing up the side.
