'1863'- somewhere on the sea

Princess Davina woke up with a throbbing cheek and groaned as she realized she was tied up. Ropes were tied tightly around her arms and waist so she couldn't really move but that didn't stop her from trying to get free. Davina looked around and saw she was in some sort of dungeon like cellar, she was locked in a cage and tied up against "curse you damn pirates" she hissed as she started tugging at the ropes making her winch because they were so tight that each time she moved the ropes would dig into her skin giving her rope burns. Davina closed her eyes and took a deep breath, biting down on her lip as she tugged and tugged at the ropes. She brought one of her legs up as she remembered that she had a small dagger hidden in her boot. She kicked off her shoe and managed to get it into her hands, she turned the boot over and slowly removed the bottom of the shoe revealing a small but very sharp dagger hidden beneath it. She grabbed the dagger and tossed her boot aside and started to cut into the rope the best she could. She eventually managed to cut off the rope around her wrists and arms after that is was easy for her to untie the rest of the rope that kept her tied up. Davina looked up and saw a porthole so she stood up holding the rope, she pried the porthole window open and threw the rope out into the sea. Davina smirked as she closed the porthole window "now how to get free" she muttered as she put her boot back on and shoved her secret dagger in her boot. The Princess scanned the cage she was in trying to pin point a weak spot but eventually decided to just sit and wait for the right moment. She sat down on the floor and pulled her knees up to her chest, placing her head down on her knees.

Davina lifted her head up as she heard footsteps approaching "look who's awake" she growled as she heard Lucien's voice. Lucien stepped into her line of view and for a moment she wished she hadn't thrown out the rope so she could strangle Lucien but she knew she did a smart thing. "Lucien is it?" Davina asked in a sombre voice "yes that's right" Lucien replied smirking but the smirk fell as he noticed she wasn't tied up like he left her and he yanked open the cage. He stomped in and glared at the girl "is there something wrong Lucien?" She asked bitterly "you were tied up when I left. Why aren't you still tied up?" Lucien asked snarling at the Princess who smirked at me "was I tied up? I just woke up and found myself like this" Davina replied mockingly "you think you're so clever well you're not. Now why aren't you tied up and where is the rope?" He asked glaring at the girl clenching his fists. "Oh you mean the rope that was restricting my blood circulation? Oh I managed to untie myself and then I threw it out the little window over there" Davina said with a smirk. Lucien stormed over to her and yanked her up roughly "nobody ever gets free from my knot! I tie the tightest knot nobody is ever able to get free from it! I remember you were tied up very tightly so I don't believe for a second you untied yourself!" He yelled in her face some or most people would flinch if someone screamed in their face like that but Davina wasn't like all those people who let everything or anyone scare them, she was fearless. Without Lucien noticing Davina had somehow took the dagger that Lucien had in his holder pouch and quickly pressed it against his throat taking him by surprise. Davina quickly switched their positions and pressed him against the wall with the blade of his dagger pressed against his throat only slightly digging into his skin drawing blood "you will not speak a word as I remove this dagger from your throat am I clear" Davina said sternly fire burning in her eyes "yes" Lucien said breathing heavily suddenly feeling very intimidated by the girl. Davina removed the dagger and Lucien smirked before lunging at her but Davina quickly grabbed his arm and twisted it before flipping him onto his back with a thump. Davina kneeled down keeping a firm grip on his twisted arm as she bent down to his ear "stay down" she whispered patting his head as she slowly stood up and exited the cage. Just as Lucien managed to get up and ran to her she slammed the cage door shut right in his face knocking him out cold as his forehead met the hard steel bars of the cage. Davina smirked as Lucien fell back with a thumb "never mess with a Princess" she tutted shaking her head before making her way out the cellar.
