Its been about a month since Angela and I got on the ship. The first week was hard. We had to get use to being on a ship and working on one. It was also hard to find a time to change were none of the guys would see.

We got use to the movement though and the smell of the sea. The work can be tough at times but its not that bad. But we have to wake up extra early to change and wait for them to fall asleep to change.

I have written Phil a few letters and so did Angela, she also wrote her friend once. But we can only mail them when we make port.

Right now me, Angela and our new friend Eric were cleaning the decks. In about a day or two we will be making port again. I'm happy about that cause then I can mail the letters I wrote to Phil. And I will be able to take a bath.

So far, Angela and I have been able to keep our identities a secret. but it is hard at times. We see the other men having fun and jokiing around with each other, but we can't join in because we can't talk much or they might find out we are girls. And whenever Angela and I are able to talk, we have to whisper, and our time doesn't last that long. Either someone comes by us or it is too late at night and we can't stay up long enough.

But it is still not that bad. And sometimes when we make port, Angela and I are able to get away for a while.

"Eric." I heard the captain call. "It's about time for lunch and its your turn to make it." He said coming up to us.

"Yes sir." Eric got up and went to the kitchen. The captain looked at Angela and I.

"Derek. Charlie" he said giving us both a small nod. We nodded back and got back to work.

***********

After lunch, Angela and I didn't have really have anything to do because we finished cleaning. So Angela and I just sat by the side watching the dolphins swim around. and talking to each other quietly.

"Captain! CAPTAIN!" Cory shouted and looking for the captain. When he found him he said "There are pirates coming. They are gaining fast!" When he said this everyone stopped working and looked behind us. Sure enough there was a ship coming up on us fastly with black sails.

"Grab your swords men and prepare for battle men." Everyone starts to run around getting ready. The captain comes up to Angela and I. "Can you boys fight?" He asked us. We both nodded. "Good." Then he walked away.

When Angela and I were younger, Charlie had taught us to fight. He wanted us to be able protect and defend ourselves.

As they drew closer, everyone drew their swords and most of the men tensed. When they were close enough, the pirates attacked.

EPOV

Over the last month, we haven't attacked many ships. Maybe about two. But one of the fights cost me about four of me men. So on the next attack, I'm going to need to get four people, but they can't just be anyone, they have to be great fighters.

"Captain, we gota ship coming up," Sean yelled down to me. I smiled, looks like I'm getting my men sooner than I thought.

"Okay crew, get ready for battle. And remember we need four new men for our crew. They have to be good fighters."

We were approaching fast. When we were close enough, I noticed that they had their swords up and were ready for battle.

Well this will be fun!

We were close enough now that we could jump. I was the first one over. When I landed, I had men surrounding me. But they soon broke apart when the other men came over.

The first man I fought was easy. He had no fighting skills at all. He was easily killed.

When I turned, there was another young man standing there but I couldn't see his face because he was wearin a hat that hid his face. He was small and had no muscle at all. He will prolly be very easy to defeat.

But when we started to fight, he was very good. We were evenlt matched. I smiled at this. Looks like I found one of my new men.

After a few minutes of fighting the man fell over, I was about to strike when another sword shot out to stop mine.

He was also young like the one laying on the ground. He had a small frame with no muscles. I couldn't see his face either due to the hat he was wearin.

Him and I were now fighting, and the one that was on the ground is now fighting Ben.

This guy is better than the last. After about eight teen minutes. I noticed that some of my men were going towards the cabins. So I guess that there weren't that many other men left to fight.

I took a quick moment to look around and there were about six people left. Wait, five one just died.

My quick look around was almost a second too long. Cause the moment I turned around, I saw the mans sword coming down on me. As fast as I could, I brought my sword up to stop it just in time. Some of my men started to close in on my fight. Because he was such a good fighter, he was able to hold off a few guys for a few minutes.

Then Emmett grabbed him from behind. Ben, Jasper and Mike were holding three other men. All of them struggling.

"Hello there," I said going infront of them all. "You lucky four have been choosen to be apart of my crew. Should you refuse, you will die. Now does anyone want to back out?" Silence took us over. "Good. Now these fine four men holding you will take you to your cabin's to get your things. Then they will bring you to your new rooms."

With that said, they were dragged to the cabins. I took a look at my crew. There were many that were injured.

"Okay, all of you that are injured go see Carlisle, the rest stay here. When they come back out we will go see if we can find anything good."

About half of the men started over to our ship, i sighed. When they came out Emmett, Jasper, Ben and Mike were no longer holding the men. I noticed the two men that I fought were behind everyone whispering to each other. Emmett walked toward them to get them to hurry up, but as soon as he was close enough to be able to hear what they were saying, they stopped and seperated a little.

That is a little odd. But I ignored it and went to the cabins to see what I could find that was worth keeping.

Oh. My. God. I can't believe this is happening. I never thought pirates would attack us. This is the most... no the second most frightening thing that has happened to me. The only good thing that came out of this is that both Angela and I are still alive. The down side to it though is that we had to join the crew.

While we were walking to the cabins, I looked over at Angela. She seemed a little distracted. By now the pirates had let go of us, but Angela stayed near the one that was holding her. She also seemed to be stealing glances at him.

This was so weird. I have never seen Angela take a liking toward a boy. But when she does, she chooses a pirate. But I guess he was kind of good looking.

Angela and I went slower than the others to make sure that we were behind everyone else.

"What are we going to do Angela. We can't go on a pirate ship! Not only is it frightening, but we can't do the work! We're only girls." I whispered. Angela looked just as scared as I was.

"I don't know. This is so scary. Maybe we won't get a difficult job. We could get something easy." She replied. She was always so opptimistic. Always has to find someting good even in a terrible situation.

Looking at her though, I knew she didn't really believe it herself. So I just changed the subject.

"Soo...I seen you looking at that guy that was holding you." I said looking quickly at her. She had her head down and a slight blush on her face. She also had a small smile. That made me smile. "You like him, don't you." I whispered to her.

She looked at me, the blush deepening, but only a little.

"What?...No...No I don't like him. I mean hes.. hes a pirate. What gave you that idea?" I knew she was lying though.

"Its okay that you do. He is nice looking. And who knows, maybe hes really nice." She looked at me smiling.

"He is isn't he? I don't know why I like him. There is just something about him that draws me to him." She had a dreamy look on her face. "The only bad thing is that I can't do anything about it. He thinks I'm a guy. And its not like I can go up him and talk to him. I can't help but stare at him, but he will eventually think I'm a freak if I keep that up" she sighed.

I felt bad for her. This was the first guy that she has ever liked, and she couldn't do anything about it. She looked so sad.

"Ang, I'm so sorr---" I stopped talking as soon as the big guy that was holding me came up to us.

"Come on you slow pokes. We don't got all day." His voice was deep. His arms were huge. They were probably the size of my head. We caught up with the other guys and went over to our new ship.

When we got there, one of the first things I noticed were three beautiful woman standing there. I don't think they were captives because they looked like they wanted to be there.

The oldest had caramel colored hair with beautiful green eyes. She was standing next to a man who was holding a medical bag and she was holding his other hand. He was tall and had blonde hair.

The other two girls were younger. They looked to be about my age. One girl had long, blonde flowing hair. She had long legs and was absolutly beautiful. The other girl was just as pretty. She was short, had black short hair that was in little spikes.

The big guy went up to the blonde girl and picked her up. She giggled and smacked him a little.

Another blonds huy, who was younger than the first, whos name I found out was Jasper, showed us to our new rooms. Angela and I were the last ones in the cabins. When we got there, all of the beds were taken by the other men.

"I'm sorry boys, its looks like tyhere is no more room in this cabin for the two of you. Would you be fine with your own cabin? Just the two of you." Jasper said coming up behind us. I looked at Angela. We both nodded our heads. "Good, come with me." He turned and left with us following behind him.

The room was a good size, not as big as the other but still good. There were only four beds, two small dressers and three windows.

"Okay, get everything unpacked and be up on the deck in 15 minutes so you can meet the captain and get you jobs." We nodded. After a minutes Angela let out a big sigh.

"You know, this might not be that bad. We got our own room,, hoe lucky is that? Now we don't have to worry about getting dressed! We don't have to go to bed really late or wake up super early!" I exclaimed excitedly. Angela's smile matched mine.

"I know this is great!"

When we got on the deck, Eric and Patrick were just getting there too. The three girls, the blonde guy, the big guy, Jasper and the guy that Angela was staring at was standing in front of us. The another man appeared. He was soo handsom. He had longish bronze hair and the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen. I couldn't stop staring at him. When he spoke, I was even more shoked. His voice was beautiful.

"Hello boys, my name is Edward and I'm the captain of The Dutchman. This is my family and one of my best friends. My mother Esme and my father Carlisle. He is the doctor of the ship. My best friend Ben. My two brothers Jasper and Emmett, and these two lovely ladies are their wives. This is Rosalie," he pointed to the blonde, "and this is Alice," he said pointing to the pixie.

"Now one of the only rules on this ship is to leave these woman alone. You are not to mess with them. I would like to know all of your names then I will give you your jobs." He stepped closer to us.

"I'm Patrick"

"I'm Eric." Edward looked at me and Angela. We didn't say anything we just stood there looking back.

"Are you two going to tell me your names?" He asked a little frusterated.

Eric coughed. "Um, they don't really talk."

"Oh!" Edward looked back at us again then back at Eric. "Then you tell me their names."

"Okay. This is Derek," he pointed at Angela, "and this is Charlie." He pointed at me.

"Good. Okay, Patrick you can be the look out. Eric you help out were ever there needs help. And Derek and Charlie, you can be he cooks. Get to work."

I was happy with my job, I used to cook all the time back home. I also got to be with Angela which made me even more happy. With all my happiness, I didn't relise I was still staring at Edwars until Angela elbowed me in the side.

When I was out of my trance, I looked down blushing slightly. The good this is that Edward didn't notice me staring. But Rosalie, Alice and Esme did. All three of them were giving mw weird look.

I looked away from them and started my way toward the kitchen.

A/N: So what do you think. Bella and Edward finally met.
