"Come on you scallwags move it!" The brunette yelled. "We leave port in 10 minutes so move or ye be left behind." She yelled before looking at her crew.

"Cindy can't you give them more time." Mumbled a beach blonde. "It's not possible to leave in 10 minutes."

The brunette took off her hat and wiped her eyebrows. "I know Claire, but most already don't like the fact I'm in charge since the captain ain't (1) feeling good. Heck, some think I'm even poisoning him."

"Calm down it will all be ok." Claire said resting her hand on her friends shoulder. Cindy nodded, and looked about a mile away seeing a small chestnut haired girl running towards the ship. "Crap, Maddy" She mumbled.

Claire's eyes traveled towards the same Cindy had been staring at. "Man, I forgot she went back because she saw something really important she wanted to show you." Cindy shook her head. "What am I going to down with her." She mumbled.

"Master Gunner Julia Bones (2) report here immediately!' Cindy shouted. Not long was a green eyed brunette appeared beside here. "Aye, aye!"

"AJ I need you to go and get Maddy, before the 10 minutes are up." Cindy whispered. AJ nodded before sprinting towards their chestnut haired friend. "Did you really have to do that?" Claire asked. "Claire, I can't show favoritism. I need their trust and respect." Cindy mumbled.

The two watched early as the crew ran onto the ship, not wanting to be left behind. Then again seeing that their two friends were only a few feet away. "Move it men, only 3 minutes left." Warned the second mate. The girls kept their eyes glued on their friends. "5, 4 3, 2… that's it raise the anchor."

Just then Maddy and AJ jumped on the ship. Cindy let out a huge sigh and walked over to her friend's. "What took ye so long?" The stormy eyed girl asked. "I have to show you this." Maddy said holding out a ticket. "It's for an expensive cruse that only the very wealthy can offered."

Cindy snatched the ticket out of Maddy's hand. She read it eagerly to find it all true men set a course for California!" She shouted.
