Hope you guys are liking the story so far! I've gotten a few questions about what's going to happen next and requests for Angelica not to die. Well, you'll just have to wait and see, huh? (;
Thank you to all who have been supportive! I know I'm not the best writer but hey, if I stop, I'll never get better! So thanks to those readers that have read every chapter and wait eagerly for the next one!

Enjoy this one (:

"Well, best be off Captain, shop usually gets busy about this time." said the shop keeper to Captain Waas as they finished up their conversation.
"Yes, I'll see you later." he said
"Oh, and Captain, I hope you find Eric. I'd like to know what happened to him."
"I assume that Angelica killed him and is on the run. She never did like it here."
"Yes, well, can't please everyone." said the shop owner
"Right you are," he replied and walked off down the street putting up more signs about his missing nephew. He had a small idea of where Angelica was. She was on his ship, his dear Rosemary, off to wherever it was she was from. She had probably stabbed his nephew over and over again before slipping him off over the ship rail. And with a splash, Eric's slaughtered body hit the cold water beneath him. Would he have felt it? No because he had been slaughtered first. Yes, that was his prediction.

His thoughts were interrupted by the man who had ridden by on the palomino mare earlier. He was looking in shop windows, looking a bit excited. Sort of like a young boy and the newest model of his favorite toy.

"Hello young man," Captain Waas greeted Andrew. "Is your sister alright?"
Andrew looked up from the window, surprised to see someone acknowledge him.
"My sister? Oh yes, much better. I feel that she will be okay now that she is in the good hands of the doctor."
"Yes, yes." he brushed it aside "I don't believe I've seen you around these parts before."
"What? Oh well, it was just the closest town with a doctor." Andrew replied

"Where are you from?"
"Um, a little ways from Alpinotch. We live on the outskirts."
"And you came here for a doctor?"

Andrew was starting to feel uncomfortable . Why was this man asking so many questions? Did he know who Andrew and Angelica really were?

"Excuse me sir, but have I done wrong?" he asked Captain Waas.
"Oh, no of course not boy!" he patted Andrew's shoulder "I'm just naturally nosy." he said
Andrew stared "The doctor was out of town."
"What?" Oh, of course! I understand. Well, thank you for choosing Port Royal!"
"Any time sir." Andrew said
"Your name?"
"Hmm?" he asked caught off gaurd
"You seem like a nice man, your name?"
"Andrew. Andrew..." he looked around at any sign that could give him a name "Andrew Waas." he read off a nearby poster
"Waas?" the Captain got serious
"Yes sir. Is something wrong with my name?"
"No, not at all!" Captain Waas chuckled "It's my name too."
Andrew's stomach dropped. "Hah...how 'bout that?"
Captain Waas slapped his shoulder, still laughing.

"How about dinner? You can come stay at my place while you wait for your sister to get well again."
"Oh, um...alright." Andrew wasn't sure if this was a good idea.
"Come, come! I'll show you the way!"
Andrew looked back at the road to the hospital and back at Captain Waas.
"Ah, c'mon, she'll be alright. Like you said, she's in good hands."
"Will I still be able to come in the town?" Andrew asked

Captain Waas roared with laughter "You aren't a prisoner boy!"
Andrew pretended to laugh
"I'll just show you the house, your room and you can come back and browse the shops again. Perhaps take a shower before,"
Andrew looked down at his dirty arms and hands.
"That'd be great!" he smiled.

This guy seemed alright, nothing to fear. Angelica would be better, he'd be safe in a nice home and everything would be alright. His mind travelled to his wife, Emily. Was she alright? He wanted to know. It was a month ago since they were parted. He knew that once Angelica was better, jack would be in a better mood and would gladly drop Andrew off.

No, not drop off. He still had to tell Anna to take the crown. He'd have to perform to ritual to the elves before she could. Julian was gone and Anna, along with the crown, were safe. But something still felt wrong. Well, no worries, He wasn't Andrew Driftwood right now, he was Andrew Waas, whoever that guy is.
