Thank you all for the reviews so far. They have made me smile and chuckle. Nothing new to post or update y'all with yet. This is a short chapter yes sorry rest will be a bit longer. I know a few are questioning while I am referring to Dulce as the woman, it is for two reason. One so I remember she has not gave her name to Edward and two to remind the reader that she is the mysterious woman he found. Once they can be civil enough to exchange name I will stop referring to her as the woman. Oh and Happy Thanksgiving! So for now lets just move on with the story. ON WITH THE SHOW!

Edward held her arms tightly while he held the back of her robes firmly in his other. Pushing hard on her back he forced her forward and down off the forecastle and to the back of the ship. He left the four men to get themselves off the floor and bandaged if needed. He kept his rather rough treatment of the woman till they reached the door of his cabin. He opened the door pushing her through the portal and fallowed before kicking the door closed. He wasn't really angry, more annoyed she hurt his men and made him wake earlier then he would have liked.

He quickly brought his from her collar to her bracer and took little time untying the laces and loosening it before he shoved her forward pulling the brace from her arm as she stumbled forward. He watched as she stumbled and spun to face him her hand quickly grabbing her empty forearm. She moved quickly in to him bringing her hand back and throwing a punch with all her weight. Edward twisted to the side grabbing her wrist and forcing it behind her back with a sigh. He understood most of this out burst from her was because she was in an unfamiliar place with strange men around her.

"You are on MY ship, You will fallow MY rules, and you will not hurt MY men." Edward spoke calmly in to her ear

"È stronzo. IO omicidio tu " (you asshole, I will murder you.) she seethed at him through gritted teeth.

"Huh?" Edward was caught off guard when she spoke.

The woman took this chance to stomp down on his foot and swing her head in to his. Face. Edward growled feeling her foot slam down on his before letting her god and stepping back taking his cheek in hand. The side of her head collided with his cheek bone making his eye water a bit. He looked to her and frowned as she back away from him ready to fight again.

"Okay..." He leaned on to the table and rubbed his face as his annoyance grew. He watched her trying to figure out how to continue this conversation. He figured it best to not argue with words when neither could understand each other. "I am not drunk enough for this shit."

She watched him as she glanced to her bracer putting her hand out demanding it back. He saw her hand move up asking for something and he looked down to the Bracer. Holding it up waving it slightly she nodded thrusting her hand out once more. Looking back to her, he nodded slightly as he stood up from the table looking down to her.

"Mine" he pointed to himself then went right out the heavy wooden doors, shutting and locking them.

The woman ran to the door to chase after only to find the door wouldn't move. He had locked her in to the cabin with no way to escape. She screeched before kicking the door and stomping away. Having lost that fight she started looking around for another way to escape, she had two options; The glass on the doors or the glass on the back wall. The door's windows were too narrow for her to squeeze though without being seen, not to mention climbing through could rip her wound open more. She went to the back wall to check the glass there. The glass there was set in to thick frames that she was not sure she could break through. She was trapped and she was unable to leave. Not to mention if she could break it she didn't see anything but water. She slowly lowered herself to the floor slowly in defeat. Tucking her legs to her body, and pressing her back to the wall she dropped her head.

"Ezio, il mio amore, aiutami " (Ezio my love help me) the woman closed her eyes as she started to cry. Her body in a lot of pain and really tired. She slowly drifted back to sleep on the floor as her body just waned to rest once more.

Edward locked the cabin doors and growled stepping back quickly hearing he woman banging on the other side. He snorted as she screeched and kick the door. Walking away and up to the quarterdeck above he relieved Ade from steering so he could go sleep the rest of the night. Adewale looked to Edward with a bit of a smart smirk on his face.

"So ?" Ade questioned with a curious tone.

"I am gonna shoot her." Edward grumbled.

"I said you would be the first." Ade walked away to head below deck.

"Oy, Ade? Who do we have that speaks Spanish on this ship?" Edward questioned

"A few men, why do you ask?" Ade pulled the hatch to below deck up.

"She doesn't speak English." Edward showed his annoyance. "I think she is speaking Spanish, and I would like to have a nice long chat with her"

"Aye aye Capetian. See you in the morning" Ade nodded and went below deck to the crew quarter and to his bed to sleep.

The hours went by slowly. Edward enjoyed this time of night. The sounds of the wind whistling by, the shuttering of the sails with each gust and the sound of waves sloshing against the planks of the ship. It was hypnotic and he had to admit he had drifted off a few times while standing at the helm. He looked to the sky to see the moon in all its full glory. The few men that were awake to maintain the night watch and work gathered on the stairs up to the quarterdeck. They conversed on many things, played cards . Edward joined in on their talk and rants. He never played cards cause he couldn't leave the wheel unless it was Nesselrode. It help time not feel so slow but watching nothing and but the moon and ocean wasn't helpful.

The relaxed and looked to the sky as the moon had dropped lower. Looking to he opposite direction we saw the sky was growing lighter meaning dawn was on its way. With a smiled he relaxed to the music of the ocean. One of the men called out drawing the other men over and next thing Edward saw was a pod of whale breaching the water for air. He smiled and a few even flew out of the water, even a whale child breached the water taking full flight before crashing back in to the water below.

"YAW, Thah lil one, goh S'me heigh'. Ya, see dah?" the heavy accented man spoke loudly making Edward smiled.

"This your first time seen a whale, Ry?" Edward questioned the big guy.

"Yea, sir, firs' time." Ry looked back. "Don' ge ta see dis stuff on lan' sir"

"Enjoy it well then. A whale or two is common to see but a group that big is rare" Edward smiled as the men cheered again at another burst of jumps and displays from the whales.

Shaking his head slightly he looked a head letting the wind whistle by his ears. The sky was getting brighter and soon he would need to order the day crew to wake while the night moved below deck to sleep He was looking forward the crew waking as it meant more people to watch, time would move faster, and they entertained him by singing. It was a little novelty thing his men did that he enjoyed. On the occasion would join in the choir, though these next few day didn't plan to hear much do to the lack of food that was coming.

Another hour or so and the morning bell was ringing and slowly yet surely men were coming from under deck. They held small portions of food eating while they were getting ready for their day. The night crew moved below to get some well needed sleep. Edward smirked to see Adewale walking back up on deck. He told the large man many times he can sleep more should he wish to as he stayed up much later then the rest of the crew. But he refused claiming the five to six hours was plenty, though he would sleep near 12 or 13 hours on land easily. Ade came up with a young boy about eleven years old both finishing off their meals.

The boy had black hair and dark green eyes. His skin was tanned as most of his other men from being out in the sun all day. He was short for his age but then again he was still growing. He was dressed in a shirt that was way to big for him tied at the waist with a rope and a pair of pant with the legs cut short then cuffed for his height. Edward saw the boy washing the decks, running ropes and crawling I to places his men couldn't fit.

"Edward this boy speaks Spanish." Ade pushed the boy forward.

"Oh? Didn't know you spoke Spanish, Squirt." Edward looked back to the boy. "Why didn't you tell me."

"Didn't know I had to." Squirt looked scared which made Edward chuckle. "Sorry"

"Don't worry." Edward moved from the wheel as Ade took over. He knelt down to be face to face with the boy with a gentle smile, considering his usual attitude with other adults. "Never got to talk to you, just hired ya cause you were the right size for some tasks on the ship. Tell me your real name now."

"It's Edwardo. The other men gave me the nick name." Squirt spoke weakly. Edward just looked him and blinked slightly.

"I am just gonna keep calling you Squirt." Edward licked his dry salted lips. "I have a special task for you, come with me."

Edward stood up and walked away from the boy down the stairs. The boy chased after Edward not wanting to get in trouble. They went to his quarters, unlocking the door and stepping in. They saw the woman sitting under the large window in the back sleeping. They both walked over to her and stopped. Edward gave her foot a hard kick watching her jump awake and looked around before her eyes locked to him and then the boy. She was for the most part rather confused about what was going on, and what was going to happen.
