Hope Keeps Us Moving [PRIVATE]

[changa]

"Only you and Aaron left!" she yelled, hurrying to Ginny as fast as she could. It was hard, of course, because she had a stick on her back, but she did it all the same.
Aaron looked at Jack and rolled his eyes. "Good luck."

[Question]

Jack grinned and swang and knocked Aaron hard onto his back. Then jack swung off as well. "Hah!"

[changa]

"Ow!" he yelled. The natives must have heard this, for they came running.
"Jack, how do we get these sticks off?!" Angelica exclaimed.

[Question]

"Don't know, Just run!" Jack said, he started running the best he could.

[changa]

"But Ginny!" Aaron ran over and threaded his stick through Ginny's. Then they ran. "Oy, Jack, you idiot!" Angelica laughed.

Kale and the rest of the crew sat in a large ball over a river many yards below. "After the Captain us roasted, we're next," he sighed.

[Question]

"I'm not a idiot, " Jack protested, "we have to get these sticks off first! Aaron, use your mermaid fangs to bit threw Angelica's rope." Jack suggested.

[changa]

"Right." He reached down, and with a quick snap, tore through her bonds. "Get Ginny off me!" He exclaimed, and once she was off, bit Ginny's ropes too. Angelica took her in her arms, and continued running.

[Question]

"Aaron, what about me?" Jack wailed.

[changa]

Aaron grunted and surged forward to break the rope. He was still running slowly, as he could not reach his wrists. "Y'know, I could use some help,"
"So could I!" Clegg said, and Calles nodded in agreement.

"Well, what we could do is cut open this cage. It should break," suggested William Dampier.
"And then do what? Fall into the river?" Kale said. "Besides, our weapons have been taken."
Gibbs had been silent. "You've been here before, Gibbs,"
"I know," he said, "But the natives aren't dumb. We might be able to try, but they might have made us unable to do it. But if we swing back and forth, we could hit the side of the cliff and climb up."

[Question]

"Free me and I'll free you," Jack promised.

Jim, the youngest crew member (aside from Ginny and Aaron) shivvered, "Whatever! Lets do it now!"
