The Black Void - Episode 1233

The prisoners looked harmless without their witch-priest and Pierre didn't
feel any desire for revenge. As a pirate you expected all kinds of people
to want to kill you anyway. He considered selling them as slaves, but there
were no slave traders in any of the pirate havens and he was a too well
known pirate to take them to any legal port around these waters. So after
having his men move everything from the freighters hold to his own ship
(there wasn't much, only food and some rum barrels) he ordered it and it's
crew to be left to their fate. One of his men asked if they could bring a
few of the women with them. As servants, as he put it. Pierre allowed this,
thinking it could give the men a morale boost.
Once they had left the Liberia behind them Pierre ordered the women to be
taken to the captains cabin. "So, do any of you ladies speak French?" Pierre eyed the five women lined up in front of him. They were all young and beautiful, in an exotic kind of way. Naturally his men had picked the ones most pleasing to the eye. "No?" None of the women gave any reply. Maybe they just didn't want to admit they understood him, but he doubted it really. He tried asking them in Spanish, then in English, but still none of the women showed any signs of understanding him. One of them shook her head. "Oh well, that's too bad. Take them away Gerard. Let the men have their little fun." Gerard nodded and pushed one of the women towards the door, indicating with his cutlass to the rest of them to start moving as well. "Wait!" one of them called out. "Please spare us from this! We can be of better value to you." Pierre raised his eyebrows and looked questioningly at her. She was the smallest of the lot and had looked to be the most timid. Now she looked at him with pleading yet strangely fierce eyes. "How?"
