:Hostage: Situation (Crimson)

[deepwallow]

Hmm... I feel like Enzio should end up with somebody.... But who?))

Jack frowned and then blinked, that was Ari! He rushed towards the hut and leapt through the opening. "Ari!" He said, but then froze. There, in one of the beds, lied Ari underneath some red headed girl who looked at him in surprise. Jack looked at Ari with a "wtf?!" Face before suddenly a whip coiled around his next, restraining him.

Jess had recovered swiftly and used his shock to her advantage as the boy now struggled to remove the whip coiled around his neck. "Well well, this that lover of yours?" She asked Ari while she put a hand to her mouth and whistled loudly

[CrimsonMoon]

Ari squeaked when a familiar figure burst into the hut and sits up quickly," Jack! Wait!!" She yelps but by than the whip had already coiled around him," Don't hurt him!" She begs. At last wiggling free and rushing over to him, trying to free him from the whip.

(Yeah but... No one seems to REALLY click with him... Jess though hmmm... XD)

[deepwallow]

*shrugs* make a pick. The only one I'm hesitant on offering is Song. I do so love that girl XP))

Jess laughs and shakes her head. "Relax, he's gonna be fine." She says as a bunch of bandits burst in and grab Jack, restraining him and tying him down. Jack is still gasping for air, so he can't put up much of a faint. One of the bandits gently takes Ari away from him to the side.

"It's ok Miss Ari. Jess isn't going to kill him. She gave the signal to capture him." The bandit assured her politely

[CrimsonMoon]

Ari struggles free and tries to make eye contact with Jack, to project her guilt so maybe he'd understand...

From a ways away there was a commotion and some screams... Than cries of fury... Than silence...

[deepwallow]

That's the sound of forgiveness: screaming and then silence XD))

"Take him away. And it sounds like we caught someone else." Jess mused just as Song burst through the door. Jess glanced over at her. "Someone else?" She asked. Song nodded and then Ran to Ari's side.

"Ari! Are you alright? Nothing bad happened I hope?" She asked, genuine concern washing over the girl's features as Jack was picked up and carried away. The only emotion in his eyes was confusion, and wonder when Song came in worried about Ari

[CrimsonMoon]

Ari covers her face with her hands," I-I'm fine," she whispers, shivering... How did he find her?!

[deepwallow]

Song sighed with relief as Jess and her minions carrying Jack left. Jack was escorted over to a sort of cage, where he was tied to a pole next to Enzio. "They got you too?" He asked when they finished tying him up, looking sorry for dragging his friend into this

[CrimsonMoon]

" Yeah well... I got three of the skewered before they got me... Did you find Ariella?" He asks, chuckling, Enzio looking a bit bruised but still the charmer...

Ari just smiles weakly and sits back down on her cot, closing her eyes

[deepwallow]

Jack nods and his face screws up.'"yeah but she was in... Odd circumstances." He admitted.

"Oh, is that what you call them these days?" A melodious and sultry voice purred. Jack looked over and noticed the same girl who had been with Ari standing before them, a confident and crooked smirk playing with her lips as she stood before the two, her blood red hair framing her admittedly beautiful face. It was obvious she was the leader, and Jack looked warily at the whip attached to her hip. "So, who are you two 'dashing knights?'" She asked

[CrimsonMoon]

" My name is Enzio... This is my friend Jack," Enzio replies in a low, alluring purr, forever the flirt," And I suppose you most be the elegant Jess that roams these woods

[deepwallow]

Jess raised an eyebrow at him, her smirk growing. "Elegant? Me? Jessica the Bloody Rose? Ha!" She laughed, putting her face close to his, her breath like mint and her scent, ironically, like roses. "If I had a gold dragon for every compliment I got from my prisoners, I wouldn't have to be a bandit." She purred back with a grin before stepping back.

"So, I take it you two came here to get our precious Ari back for yourselves to keep?" She asked, gaining a frown from Jack

[CrimsonMoon]

" Basically, yes, lve," Enzio purrs and pushes himself up using the pole for balance, he smiles at her cheekily," And if I had a gold Draechma for every time a beautiful woman turned me down, I'd be a beggar.. So..." He licks his lips and smiles at her," Haven't hou realized how precious that little girl is?"

[deepwallow]

"But of course." Jess says with a shrug and a smile. "But Song took a liking to her and took her on as an apprentice, so that's that." She says before smiling deductively at Enzio. "And I'm glad to be your first then." She purrs before kicking his legs out from under him, forcing him to the ground on his butt again.

"What do you mean that's that ?" Jack asked.

"That's that. She's part of the family and no one can hurt her." Jess said as if it were simplicity itself and Jack was a moron

[CrimsonMoon]

" She doesn't belong here," Enzio grunts and smiles slightly at her," But than again... Neither do you,"

Ari appears quietly," Jess...?" She squeaks softly

[deepwallow]

Jess only rolls her eyes at Enzio and ignores him as she shifts her attention to Ari, raising an eyebrow. "Yes Ari?" She asks with a slight smirk. Jack gazed up at Ari as she appeared, surprised she came out of no where.

[CrimsonMoon]

Ari smiles weakly at jack, looking apologetic to the max..." u-uhm... Ca-can you let them go, please..?" She asks softly, lookin down again

[deepwallow]

Jess only raises one eyebrow. "Let them to? Hmmm..." Here she looks back over the two, frowning slightly. " I don't know..." She pondered, scratching her chin.

(Hey, remember when Ari said she wanted to run away with Jack? Why don't they join up with Jess? They'd be hidden forever ))

[CrimsonMoon]

(Ooooooh 8O)

" I-I'll join you!" Ari immediately yelps," I'll do... Whatever the hell you want to do! Just... Let them go..." She mumbles

(This reminds me... I wanted to redo the PotC thread we did with our davy jones charries xD...)

[deepwallow]

Jess blinked at her in surprise and turned her full attention to the girl. She didn't have to worry about Jack and them though. Two bandits walked up behind them should they try anything. "You want to join us permanently?" Jess said, raising an eyebrow. Jack blinked in shock at his sister

[CrimsonMoon]

Ari glances at Jack than nods," Yeah... I will..." She murmurs weakly, glancing at Jack and looking away just as quickly
