Hope Keeps Us Moving [PRIVATE]

[changa]

OOC: Lol yes, thanks to you

Aaron came up behind Ginny. "Angelica," he said, taking a breath, "I have to say... there's something weird about this island. I don't know, but if we get stopped by... Blackbeard or something... Well, I won't let Ginny set foot on that island, and she's not coming without you."

Syrena held Aquala close to her. "Sweetie..." she said, "Listen. The first chance you get, escape into the water. It doesn't matter that we do, just go. Okay?" The pirates threw them in the cargo area unceremoniously, and then departed to do their daily work of getting back on the sea.

[Question]

Ginny shrugged for Angelica, "I won't leave you behind."

Aquala hugged Syrena and buried her head in her mother's neck. She pulled away once her mother said that, "No! No....I won't leave you!"

[changa]

"I know it's hard, but if you get the chance, you have to. It is the best thing right now." Syrena sighed. "And I know we'll all make it. We've got to,"

"Oh, I don't know. There's Jack, for one thing. He's got to be taken care of like a three-year-old," she laughed, "And he won't pay the crew anything but rum. I have to make sure their paid. Besides, the sea itself isn't for me. It's the ships. I'm not swimming with you. Sorry,"

[Question]

Aquala's eyes started to form tears, "Are you sure?"

Ginny turned to face Aaron, "Sorry, not going." She followed after Angelica.

[changa]

"I'm sure. It will be okay, Aquala. I promise." Syrena said, holding her tightly.

"Well, Ginny, you are not going on that island!"

[Question]

Aquala hugged Syrena back, the words from her mother's lips soothed her. Philip watched.

Ginny protested immediatly, "What? Why?"

[changa]

"You heard what I said! There's something not right! You'll get hurt or something," he said. "You can't go."

"You'll be fine, Aquala," she said, "We all will,"

[Question]

Ginny frowned, "Stay out of this, Aaron."

Aquala nodded, and closed her eyes. Hoping for some sleep.

[changa]

"Fine. But I'm protecting you every step of the way,"

Syrena saw her eyes close, and rocked Aquala until she, too, was asleep.

[Question]

"Expected," Ginny grinned. "I'll make it easy for you, I'm staying by your side." Ginny said.
