Hook kept his eyes on her, pausing when she heard his question. Her description of him as being evil, revealed the fact that her encounter with him had not been a pleasant one. Then again, most those who encountered the Dark One hardly considered it a pleasant experience. Still, it made him wonder what happened between them . . . and whether she had any information that could help. He kept the cup in place for her to take, further distracted by her next words. Hi eye brow raised from the intrigue of her revelation.

While her explanation of the events was extremely vague, he did pick up on one very important fact. "There are seldom, if any, individuals who are able to break their contracts with Rumpelstiltskin." He managed to trap most people in him. "What did you do to make yourself the exception to his dealings?" Now this was very interesting indeed. Breaking a contract with Rumple was not an easy thing to do. One had to be clever and cunning, and while Hook of course thought himself of these things . . . it hadn't yet helped him destroy the Dark One. He needed all the information he could get, which was precisely why he was questioning her about these specific events. And he did not intend to just hand her over to Hans, until he got his own answers from her.

Anna reached out further and gripped the cup, hoping, almost begging in her mind that this was not some trick and he was using the water to grab her but it seemed he just stood there looking at her. And she to stood there a moment caught in his gaze. She couldn't help but wonder what Rumpelstiltskin had done to him to make him kidnap her and keep her locked up in some place like this just for answers to a few questions. Must have been bad but she was sure if she asked he would just tell her to mind her own business or throw out more threats to scare her. Pulling the cup to her lips the water felt amazing against her skin, re-hydrating it. Refreshing. And when it hit her tongue she almost wanted to dance, it took everything she had not to chug it but to take small drinks. She did not want to over due herself but she certainly did not want to stop. Her throat stopped hurting finally and her body was sucking up the liquid quickly.

Killian then asked another question and she turned and walked back to her area away from Killian still holding the cup. Sitting down she leaned back against the wall. Watching him. "I will tell you if I can have some food..." Anna was trying to trade information for sustenance, yes she weak and tired, and mostly broken but there was a little fight left in her. Her stomach was growling and it was painful, the few days she had gone with out was taking it's toll on her, surely she was losing weight which was not the greatest thing as she was already skinny. She was hoping for something anything except more threats. She would give him what he wanted but she needed something in return, she was withering away hopefully he would not let her die in this place... Or worse toss her over board when he got all the information... Yeah she willingly jumped the first time but that was more proving a point she really did not want to die here or now. Anna was still young and wished to live a full life, to find true love. She just hoped he would not take all that from her once he was finished.

He watched her take the water and then return to the other side of the cell with the cup in hand. She told him that she would not say anything else until she got food and . . . well, he supposed that should be expected. Still. He didn't like that he was not the one to make the offer but he was desperate enough to kill the Dark One that he would give her a whole bloody feast if thats what it took to get closer to his goal.

"Fair enough," he told her, wanting to get answers from her. "Despite my trickery, I am a man with a code," he began to say. "So I will make a deal with you. I will grant you the opportunity to dine with me, where you will be given a proper meal." That was part of the condition of her getting food, that it had to be with him because he wanted to know more of her past with the crocodile.

"In exchange, you will tell me everything you know about The Dark One." And he meant, everything. No detail was too small. He studied this demon for over three centuries and perhaps knew him better than Rumple knew himself. "In addition to this, you will not try any funny business," he added on. "Or I do promise you princess, I will throw you to my men who are starved for the company of a female, and will allow them to feed their appetite as much as they like." Another threat upon her virtue yet it was clearly the most effective one he could currently make. "Do we have an accord?" He further asked, not planning to break his word unless she did.

-------------------------------------------------------

Anna had sighed lightly as she was finally going to get food, though she was not too pleased to have to eat in his company. It would be hard not to take advantage of that opportunity though she was not sure what she would be able to do she was stuck on this ship for however long it seemed to please Killian, for all she knew the only thing keeping her alive and her virtue in tact was the fact that she knew stuff about the Dark One, stuff he apparently wanted to know about. Shifting slightly she looked at him, her face showed nothing she was neither pleased nor unpleased by his proposal. Anna knew she would have to accept if she wished to eat but sitting in his company was almost enough to make her appetite disappear... But without food she would die.

"Very well, I will not try any 'funny' business during our dining." Anna really did not want to get thrown to his men, even if he was telling false information she did not really want to test it. "I will tell you what you wish to know though I do not know what it will accomplish." The end of her sentence she drifted off a bit as if she were talking more to herself then to him but alas she agreed to his terms and would try nothing during dinner. She did not really trust him all to much but she needed sustenance. Keeping a positive out look on it, perhaps it would not be that bad. Surely he was not such an arse the entire time. There was more to him Anna could see it but he was blinded by something Anna was unsure of.

It was a hard thing not to promise to do anything, she knew she would feel the urge to smack him again being put in such close quarters of him. She could do it though, contain herself, she was a princess after all and had extensive training in being proper though Anna was always a little more enthusiastic and a bit wild. She would act like a proper lady among thieves and barbarians. Her stomach began to growl at the thought of food and to keep it quiet she wrapped her arms around herself a little tighter. Being starved it made her stomach sound like a beast within her tiny frame. Inhaling a deep breath and letting it out slowly, containing her hunger. Anna was not sure how long it would be till then but she could not wait for the food even if she had to sit there across from Killian, the man who kidnapped her and is holding her captive.

She easily agreed to not trying any funny business, and while he didn't trust her . . . it was at least something he could hold her to, unless she proved otherwise. Who knows. She was clearly a feisty little thing, resilient and determined.

He knew not to lower his guard in her presence. "You made the right choice, love," he told her with a bit of a smirk. Perhaps, the only choice as he had purposely withheld any food from her so that she would be at this point of starvation. She then agreed to tell him what she knows, expressing her uncertainty of why it mattered. "That is my business," he told her. "All you need concern yourself with is telling me every detail of when you were with him." No detail was too small or trivial.

He wanted to know it all. "I will send someone town in an hours time." His eyes looked over her for a moment, a slight smile on his lips. "I am greatly looking forward to it," he said, crude implications in his voice. With that, he turned to leave, ascending the stairs and informing his men of the plan for the evening.

-------------------------------------------------------

Anna didn't respond to him when he told her she didn't need to worry about those details. She just sat there quietly and waited for him to leave. Luckily it was sooner then later, he told her he would send for someone to get her in an hours time in which he was greatly looking forward to. That only made her shiver a little bit. Anna wasn't sure what all his intentions were but she wanted food and at the moment that was her only goal, anything after that she would take one step at a time. Once Killian was gone she let out a soft sigh of relief burying her head in her hands for a moment letting everything soak in. Lifting her head she blinked back a few tears and stood up stretching her legs a bit. Anna then begun to run her fingers through her hair de-tangling it and having it lay flat once again rather then all over like it was. Pulling a part of her hair over one shoulder she began to braid then moved to the other side, tying off her ends with a small piece of cloth she pulled off the hem of her slightly ripped dress.

An hour seemed to have flown by as a short stubby man made his way down the stairs which startled Anna and she braced herself for what ever would happen but alas nothing did, he came in tied her hands and then began to lead her up the stairs without a word shared between the two of them. Anna felt like she was on display for all the crew to stare at as she was marched to the captains quarters. Doing her best to ignore the stares and whistles small goosebumps ran over her skin at the thought of any of them touching her. Once in the captains quarter she felt a little safer but that would only last for so long. Taking a seat at one end of the table her already tied hands were then tied to the table so she would not be able to escape. Leaning back Anna staid silent as she watched the short man leave shutting the door behind him.

Was she alone? Anna could still feel eyes on her but perhaps she was just being paranoid. Didn't help that she was tied up. Pulling at her restraints a bit she let out a sigh and pulled again. It wasn't so much of her trying to escape it was more the rope was uncomfortable digging into her skin and she was tied with a bunch of men around her even if there was a door between her and them it was still the thought that made her shift in her seat. Anna began to hum softly to herself trying to ease her nerves. So much had happened in such a short amount of time it was hard to take it all in and stay positive while she waited for Killian to show himself. Anna was half dreading this dinner, a one on one with the crude pirate. Who knows what was going to happen, she just hoped it was question and answers nothing more.

The next hour went by speedily as he remained at the wheel for the most part, giving basic instructions to the men. He and Hans had not agreed upon an exact time and he didn't want the man to show up before he had a conversation with Anna. After that, Hans could do whatever he wanted with her so long as Hook got his payment.

After an hour went by, he went to his quarters, readying himself for dinner. He was in the far corner, looking at the drawn portrait of Milah that he had. He heard footsteps enter and knew it was of course the princess. He remained extremely quiet, hiding the picture away on the shelf as he waited a few moments, composing himself, shielding himself of showing any sign of the emotion he felt when he thought of the first woman he ever loved. When he finally became Hook again, he walked out to reveal himself, placing a smirk on his face so that all seemed normal. Well, as normal as could be considering the circumstances.

"Did you hair just for me, love?" He asked a bit tauntingly as he continued to smirk with amusement. He then went to his own chair, seating himself before reaching for a pitcher of water. He poured a cup for her and then one for himself. With her tied hands her mobility was limited, most likely only enabling her to eat. "Let me know if you'd like something a bit stronger," he said as he poured himself a cup of rum. "You don't look like the rum drinking kind of lass, but you are indeed full of surprises." He couldn't exactly assume everything about her . . . only a few things. Limited things.

-------------------------------------------------------

When Killian finally showed himself the first thing he spoke of was her hair. Seemed he paid close attention, looking at him she shook her head "You certainly are full of yourself Captain. I wanted it out of my face and now it is." Anna spoke softly keeping her composure like a true Princess. clearing her throat a bit "I would like some water. I rather keep my wits about me. As I don't trust you." That and Anna was not a drinker she wasn't sure what it would do to her or what it would make her do. She knew enough about it to know that it would not be a wise thing to drink while in the company of a pirate who looked at her the way Killian did. Anna kept her shoulders squared and her hands in her lap only adjusting her hands every so often trying to take some of the uncomfortableness away.

"Must I be restrained the whole time? I did give my word to behave." She wasn't too sure it would work and she would most likely stay tied up but she had to ask there may have been a small chance he would untie her. Though she would not doubt him for saying no after hitting him and then jumping off his ship. But she did give her word and Anna was one who kept it even if she really did not want to. But she would be on her best behavior as long as he was as well. Anna was also waiting for some crude comment about behaving as it seemed he liked those kinds of things which Anna was learning since being trapped upon this ship. "So tell me Captain since I gave my word to behave, will you do the same as I am currently bound to your table." Anna asked as she raised her hands to show off the binds wrapped around her small hands then placed it back in her lap, her eyes never leaving Killian's features.

She did not trust him any longer and a part of her felt ridiculous for doing so in the first place but it was who she was. Anna saw the good in everyone and that often got her into trouble but she refused to see people any other way till they have proven otherwise. Anna still saw some good in him it was just buried deep within him. She would figure a way to pull it out hopefully. Being on her best behavior might help keep his hostility and threats away which was a step in the right direction. if she was right anyways. Coughing a little bit from the dryness of her throat. Anna reached up to grip the cup that was set before her.

Anna told him that he was full of himself and he continued to smirk at the apparent insult, though he did not take it quite as such. "Can you blame me?" He said with a strongly arrogant tone and cocky smile. "A man as devilishly handsome as me can afford to be full of himself." He of course knew that she had not done it for him but he couldn't help but suggest it . . . even if it was only to provoke her. Though she had done a rather good job of keeping herself composed.

She then said she preferred water, that she'd rather keep her wits about her as she didn't trust him. "Aye. You don't seem like the kind of lass who knows how to have a good time," he said mockingly. "You're a bit too uptight for that," he added as further insult. Most royals were. She blatantly stated that she didn't trust him and well, she was wise not to. He had after all deceived her. "And I am fulfilling my word of allowing you a good meal. I never said you would be unrestrained." He paused for a moment, picking up his cup though continuing his words.

"Besides, I don't trust you either," he said with a continued smirk, purposely saying the same words she had to him, only now referring to her. Taking a swig of his drink he set the cup back down as she went on to question whether he would release her. "Last time I got too close to you when your hands were unbound you struck me." Punched him right in the face. "I usually don't mind it rough," he stated, clear suggestive implications in his voice. "But not at the dinner table," he added mockingly. "Go on then, help yourself, love." With that, he picked up a piece of bread and took a small bite as he watched her with sheer amusement.

-------------------------------------------------------

Anna rolled her eyes at him and his statement about being so handsome. Yes it may have been true but she would not play into it. Gripping the cup with both hands she pulled it to her lips and took a small sip from it and placed it back down. Working with her hands tied was proving rather interesting, almost challenging but seeing as he would not untie her she would not give up even if it was all one big show for Killian. She felt like some jester rather then a princess but she had no say in the matter and would continue to do her best to keep her head held high. "Careful you might sink the ship with how full of yourself you are." She spoke calmly. Killian was getting to her and she was doing her best to battle it away, to keep herself calm cool and collected. She pulled the cup to her lips once again, being careful not to drink it too fast after being without for so long. She did not wish to make herself sick.

His next comment threw her off a bit and she did feel rather offended. Calling her uptight and she couldn't help but scoff at him. However she would not fold and she would not drink his rum. "Do not act like you know me. I will not play into your hand and lose my wits. You may have me tied to your table but I assure you I am not helpless. Nor am I uptight!" Anna did not like this man sitting before her. And if she was untied she might try to hit him again but who could blame her. Pulling herself back together she let out a small huff, this was getting no where and her wrists were turning red from how much she moved from the uncomfortableness. "As you have said, you are just to handsome I could not resist. My bad for being too rough." Anna went there. Perhaps this would throw him off guard, though her stomach churned at the thought of her words. She did not want to flirt with him but she had to try something and perhaps filling his ego a little more with the more rum he drank would get her somewhere.

"Very well then, leave me bound. Who knew the great Captain Killian couldn't handle a small women such as myself." It was a light tease but also a a shot to his ego, at least she hoped. Anna moved her hands towards the bread slowly and she almost couldn't reach. Stretching out her fingers she managed to grasp it lightly. She was sure Killian was enjoying himself. Pulling off a small piece she placed it in her mouth and at that moment it tasted like the most amazing thing she had ever eaten. Guess this was the result of being starved. Anna had to remind herself to take it easy or she would make herself sick.

Hhe continued to look at her with amusement when she told him that he would sink the ship with his ego. "Believe me love, The Jolly Roger and I have been through quite a lot together. It would take more than me ego to ever bring her down. Nothing is too much for her to handle." Women would come and go but a ship . . . now that was a pirate's constant love. She then seemed to grow agitated by him insulting her as she protested, stating that she was not helpless nor uptight. He couldn't help but chuckle. "Ah yes, you defensively saying you're not uptight surely means you aren't," he retorted sarcastically.

"You my dear, need to learn to relax. Well, perhaps under different circumstances. Although, if you were to be at more ease, you and I could have far more fun than we've already been having." There was obvious suggestiveness, but also a hint of sarcasm . . . for he knew she was not exactly having fun on his ship. She was after all his prisoner. Her next words did indeed surprise him and he raised an eyebrow at the meaning behind her words. "The truth will set you free," he said with playful teasing as she spoke of how he was too handsome -- though he knew she was of course being sarcastic. "Oh, there is no such thing as being too rough. Perhaps if you drink some rum and put yourself more at ease, we can explore more of that later this evening."

Once again, a remark of perversion as his eyes lingered over her, a devious smile on his lips at the thought. Her next insult was not one he remained silent on, for he was no coward. He would never be a coward. "Well it seems you don't think much of yourself then love," he challenged. "I however, am no fool. I know better than to underestimate someone, woman or man. And don't mistake my tying you up for cowardice. It is merely for convenience, as I lack the patience to chase you around my ship and toss a net to fetch you back on." Like what had happened last time. "So why don't you just enjoy the meal I have so graciously provided you with," he added on, motioning to the food before her.

-------------------------------------------------------

Anna listened to him talk about his ship like it was some woman and it was almost cute. Perhaps if she wasn't being held captive on the darn thing she would appreciate it more but she had been stuck here with grimy men. With sigh she moved so she was able to reach the food a little easier though it was still not that easy with her hands being tied together. They might as well feed her to at the rate she was going they might be there a while. She had to grab small pieces so she didn't drop things everywhere. So far she was doing very well. The food was pretty good then again it didn't have to be good at all she was starving and everything looked good to her! Finishing her small bite she studied Killian "Perhaps I seem uptight, but then again I have been locked away in a cage multiple times. So I think I have a right to be this way." Anna spoke calmly, she felt like it was only fair to feel this way after everything that has happened to her. "I still will not drink your rum. I don't need you taking any more advantage of then you already have. Water is perfectly fine. Thank you."

Anna grabbed a little more bread, the carbs were good for her as well as the protein. Everything she needed was on the table and frankly she couldn't get enough of it. "If there is no such thing as too rough, stop complaining about your face. I barely left a mark." A small chuckle escaped her lips but she quickly stopped it She was not here having fun, letting her face slide back into a more serious stance so she was not pleased. How could she be with Killian who stuck her in a cage. Clearing her throat a bit she went back to eating wanting to mind her own business now. Looking down at her plate rather then looking at Killian, she needed to keep her mind on the fact that he was an arse and she would escape this prison somehow. She did after all escape from the Dark One without hurting herself.

After a few more bites she leaned back her stomach already full. After not eating for a while her stomach shrunk though if she just sat there for a little bit she would be able to eat a little more. Making sure to go slow. "I wasn't going to go anywhere. I gave my word and I keep my word. And all the food is here since you have starved me I wouldn't get far even if I tried." She knew it would not matter but she wanted to make that point. Plus she really did not want to jump off the ship again, she was already missing half of her attire and she thought she might freeze before she dried and was able to warm up a little bit. She knew it was a bad idea but Anna wanted to prove a point again which is why she was left here tied to the table. "So what will happen to me after I tell you what you wish to know?" She asked curiously as she played with some material of her cloak.

She explained her reason for being uptight, explaining that she had been locked up in a cage and well . . . it certainly made sense. He of course hadn't expected her to be all warm and welcoming to seeing him. He was a villain; he had kidnapped her. He was not delusional enough to believe otherwise or try to heroically justify his actions. He was clouded with the desperate need -- some may say obsession -- to kill the Dark One, and it had indeed caused him to do a great deal. Both good and bad . . . mostly bad. "Well then I fear for your future husband. Having to deal with such a . . . tight woman." There was a crude double meaning there, specifically when he used the word 'tight' as he was not entirely referring to her personality. The smirk on his face and tone in which it was said was clear indication of this.

Her refusal to drink his rum only made his smirk remain in place. "Don't think of it as me potentially taking advantage of you. Think of it as a means to numb your current emotional state of being held against your will, so far from home and your beloved sister." Ah yes. He knew about her sister indeed. Hans had informed him with quite a bit of detail regarding the queen.

She reminded him of his words and there being no such thing as too tough, and told him to stop complaining about his face. "Perhaps you should kiss it better," he suggested teasingly. It was her chuckle that came afterwards that caused him to smile with amusement; this time void of perversion but more . . . amused at her own light hearted action of genuinely laughing -- even if it was at his expense. "Well look at that. Seems you are actually enjoying my company after all," he said, deciding to ignore her words and focus on that instead. "You wouldn't be the first one," he said arrogantly, with a cocky grin.

"Well as I said, your word means nothing to me for a desperate person is willing to do just about anything to get what they want." In her case, it was escaping from him. But perhaps she now realized that any attempt to flee the ship, was futile. Her question of what he intended to do with her after was indeed a fair one. But Hook wasn't exactly known for fairness.

"I'll leave that to your imagination." He wanted her to have some false sense of hope that he would release her once he got what he wanted from her. He knew the moment he mentioned Hans, she may not tell him anything. "Instead, why don't we focus on your part of the deal as I upheld mine." Since he provided her with a meal. Tell me a detailed account of your encounter with the Dark One." Because Killian wanted to know everything. "No detail is too small." And he did mean, everything.

-------------------------------------------------------

A blush crossed her cheeks and she frowned at him. Shaking her head a bit "Well from all your threats I probably will never get the chance to." She almost hissed at him. He was so vulgar. Anna may have been innocent but she understood what he was saying and his hidden meanings behind his words. Most of it was stuff she had never even heard of but knew it was inappropriate and often made her blush just at the thought of something like that. It was amazing he still had his tongue, she couldn't help but wonder if this was how he talked to all the women... So crude and disgusting. He certainly was a pirate his words and the way he went about things. Sighing softly she took a few more small bites of what was laid in front of her.

"Do not speak of my sister." Anna spoke sternly, this was not a topic she was willingly to talk about and it showed as she became very defensive. Talking about her and what would happen to her was one thing, her sister was a whole new level of problems and she would give him more hell then what she was worth for her sister. "And no matter how much you wish me to cloud my judgement I will not. If you do decide to take advantage of me any more so then you have I will be much more of a pain for you sober." Anna nodded her head sternly as she pulled her drink to her lips. She had no idea if she was a light weight or not and had no intentions of finding out on his ship with him ogling her like he did. "Why not ask your little henchmen to kiss it better." She spoke sarcastically while lightly glaring at him.

Killian then spoke of her actually enjoying his company and that she was not the first. Anna couldn't help but scoff at that. "You have it all very wrong. I certainly do not enjoy your company and I am sure I am not the first." Anna tossed a little more bread into her mouth as she looked away from him. He was very attractive and was charming... On occasions but over all she did not like him and wished nothing more then to get off this ship, go back home to her family and her people. "But then again I do not know how many people you have taken captive." She spoke between swallowing and tossing another small bite into her mouth.

When she asked about what would happen after she told him he really did not give her the answer she was looking for and that made her shift uncomfortably, tugging at her restraints again. No matter how much she tugged they did not come loose not for a lack of trying though. Resting her very red irritated wrists on her lap again slightly frustrated even if she knew she would not break the rope that bound her it was still irritating to her. Looking up at Killian as he spoke about her story, and how no detail was too small. "Where should I begin..." Anna sat back almost taunting him with her words to her story, she knew he wanted this story. And perhaps teasing him wasn't terrible, she was behaving just stalling a little bit. Hopefully making him suffer just a little bit.

WOO! My 700th post!!!

It's Always Nice

TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION

He was rather enjoying this banter and conversation, even if it was hardly one among friends. She grew defensive when he mentioned her sister's name. Ah. Another weak point. But that was hardly a surprise. Hans after all intended to use Anna as leverage against the queen, which indicated their close relationship. "I imagine she is just as uptight as you," he stated, purposely attempting to provoke her. "I'm certain she didn't get her nickname as the Ice Queen solely due to her abilities of creating ice," he said in mocking toward the queen that he didn't even know.

It was what he heard and what he was told that he was going off of . . . then again, he was also doing it just to provoke a reaction from her, seeing how far she would go to defend her sister. Hearing her speak of how much of a pain she would be if he attempted anything make him slightly chuckle. "If that is meant to discourage me, it has had the opposite effect. It sounds like a rather tempting opportunity to explore," he said crudely, though in all truth, he knew he would never force himself on her. He was just using that as an effective threat against her. At the thought of Smee kissing him, well, it was less than appealing. "He's a bit too male to have the tender touch that I require to soothe my injury. Your lips look as if they can provide a far more pleasurable sensation." Though he was unsure if that theory would ever be put to the test . . . unlikely, considering the nature of their interactions. They were far less than amicable.

"I only take those captive who have some sort of benefit to me. You should feel flattered love, that I went out of my way to capture you and bring you aboard my ship," he said teasingly, knowing that flattered was most likely the last thing she would be feeling right now. "Believe me when I say that if I want a woman to enjoy my company, they most certainly do." Clearly, his words were implying a more . . . physical kind of enjoyment rather than just mere conversation. She then asked where she should begin, bringing the conversation back to business. "Start from the beginning," he said. "Under what circumstances did you meet him? I highly doubt you just coincidentally crossed paths." He wouldn't have believed anything was coincidence with the Crocodile . . . but he had just happened to be there at the tavern the night Killian was; the night that eventually led to Milah's death the next day.
