Everyone is a liar. Kitten, the other beggars, the townspeople. All liars. They all think I'm stupid or something, that I'll fall for whatever they tell me.
The only person I can trust is myself, and Stick, if he were here. We've stopped looking for him, and they tell me he's dead, but I refuse to believe that. He's stronger than them. He wouldn't just die like that.
Kitten's gotten creepier over the past few days, always by my side. She never leaves me alone. It's a miracle I could get away long enough to even write this down.
Nevermind, she's calling my name again. Something about another raid in the town. I'll write more when we finish.
I am such an idiot. Captured by some pirate dude and taken prisoner aboard their ship. He's pretty creepy-looking too. Why is everyone so creepy?
He said his name was Viper, but I think he's lying. No one uses their real name these days anyway. Hell, Kitten doesn't sound like a real name either.
Speaking of her, she sold me out. She didn't even step in when the guy backhanded me across the face. Just stood there with this weird look on her face and ran off. If I ever see her again, I'm gonna kill her.
I don't know what these guys want with me, but I can't stay here. They have me in some cage in the bottom deck. They took my knife away, but I still have my notebook. I'll write down whatever I see so I can remember everything. Who knows when it'll come in handy.
It's so dark down here I can't see past the bars. Most of them are rusty or...is that blood? I can't tell what it is. Oh God, it's on the floor too. Yeah, it's definitely blood. I got it on my hands...
They didn't shackle me or anything, just threw me in here with some food. That was a few hours ago, and they haven't come back since.
The only good thing here is they fed me. A whole meal, too. Nothing like the small snacks we had in the streets. Some kind of meat, an apple and a bread roll. I can't remember the last time I've had fresh bread. Probably never.
I can't think negatively, I have to find a way to get out of here.
