Amelia opened her cabinet that held the map with a snarl on her face. Ari and Jim had just told her what they had heard from Silver and the rest of the crew. "Pirates on my ship? I'll see they all hang!" She readied a gun, tossing it to Delbert. "Doctor, familiar with these?"

He caught the weapon, but held it between his pointer finger and his thumb like it was contagious or something. "Oh, I've seen—well, I've read-" The gun powered up as he lifted up his hand and it shot out a ray, blasting the globe near Amelia to pieces.

Her eyes widened as she looked over to the globe. "Uh, no. No. No, I'm not," He admitted sheepishly to her.

"Arianna, the key," Amelia held out her hand. Ari stepped out from the closet, now wearing the First Mate uniform. It was essentially similar to Amelia's, but with a different color in red since Mr. Arrow's spare uniforms were definitely too big on her. She looked down at herself and at her black boots, adjusting her hair so that it was out instead of a ponytail. She dug into her pocket, not realizing Jim staring at her. She took out the key and gave it to Amelia.

"Whoa," Jim murmured at her appearance, a small smile hitting his face.

"You look...promising," Amelia complimented her and she adjusted her vest sheepishly.

"Thanks."

After rolling her eyes at Delbert, Amelia took out the map from the cabinet. Morph admired the map, seeing his reflection in it.

Melting was heard, and they looked towards the lock to see that they were trying to break in. "Mr. Hawkins! Defend this with your life," Amelia tossed it to Jim, but Morph took it from her with his mouth.

"Morph! Give me that!" Jim grabbed it and yanked it from Morph's mouth.

"It's not a toy," Ari warned Morph.

"Oh, you're taking all day about it," Silver pushed past the crew, making his arm into a gun. He blasted the door open and they stormed in. However, they found no one in the room. Silver took a quick look, and was flabbergasted to find a hole in the floor, caused only by a ray gun. "Oh! Stop 'em!" He threw one of his crew members into the hole.

The three followed Amelia, rounding a corner. Jim and Ari were holding hands tightly. Delbert slipped, but caught himself, running to catch up. He yelled quite a bit and then leapt down a staircase.

The crew was quickly catching up to them. Amelia grabbed Delbert and hurled him away. She then pulled up a lever for the door just as the crew was closing in on them. She then pulled out her gun and started to melt the lock.

"To the longboats, quickly!" She called out as they were in the area where they store the boats.

Jim held Ari's waist and helped her in. He jumped into the boat, followed by Delbert.

Amelia flipped a lever and the door started to open. Jim looked down, hoping for it to go faster as the door was starting to melt from the outside. Amelia howled as she flipped into the boat, cocking her rifle afterwards.

Morph snatched the map from Jim's pocket while he was distracted. "Morph! No!"

"Agh! Morph!" Ari called out in disbelief, both of them leaping out of the boat in unison. They landed on the scaffolding, watching Morph fly away with the map. The crew members stormed in, shooting up the place.

"Chew on this, you pus-filled boils!" Amelia shouted, firing back at them. As they ran forward, Delbert stood up and fired. It shot off a hanging light from the ceiling, which then landed on the board, causing crew members to fall out of the ship.

"Did you actually aim for that?" Amelia wondered, impressed with his skills.

"You know, actually, I did," He admitted, surprised by himself too.

The two then ducked as lasers were still being fired at them. Silver smirked as he flipped the lever, causing the door to start closing.

"Oh, blast it!" Amelia growled out, looking up at the rope holding the boat in place. "Doctor, when I say "now," shoot out the forward cable. I'll take this one," She ordered and he nodded in agreement.

"Morph, here! Morph!" Silver heard Jim's voice and turned around.

"Morph, you give that back right now!" Ari called out as she reached them. Jim spun around to catch Morph and the map. Ari lunged her hands forward, but Morph flew back, causing her to fall onto the floor. "Ugh!" She groaned, slamming a fist onto the ground.

"Morph!" He turned around to see Silver. "Morphy, come here," He whistled to the shape-shifter.

"Morph. Morph. Bring it here," Jim called out to him, Ari joining his side. "Morph, come here."

"Morph~!" Ari sung out to him and Morph started going over to them.

"Come here. Come here, boy. Come to your dad," Silver coaxed and Morph was just confused.

"Come here, boy. Morph!"

"Morph, I'll make my special family cookie recipe!" Ari tried and he perked up, but then the other two were still calling him.

"Come on!"

"Morph! Morph, here!"

"Morphy!"

"Morph!"

Because of the aggression coming from the two of them, Morph took to hiding in a bundle of rope. Silver took a step forward and fell, clutching his still hurt leg. He reached forward using his arm, and was about to get the map when Jim beat him to it. They glanced at him briefly with glares, with Ari basically daring him to shoot them. They took off and he powered up his gun, pointing it at the two...but he let the gun fall, sighing in desperation. He just couldn't shoot them...and Ari knew that.

Ari and Jim jumped towards the boat together. "Now!" Amelia called out, shooting out the cable. Delbert shot off his end.

"Whoa!" Delbert cried out as the ship fell and it hit the door. Jim grabbed the side as Ari landed safely, and saw him hanging from the ship. Then the ship fell off and Jim barely managed to hold on as the wind rushed past them.

"Jim!" Delbert and Ari screamed, both of them grabbing him by his hands and pulling him into the boat. Amelia yanked open the mast and Ari leapt forward, giving Jim a hug.

"Thank goodness you're okay," She murmured in relief and he hugged her back.

"You're not losing me anytime soon," He assured her and she smiled. Delbert blinked in shock at the two of them, wondering when did that happen. He was about to ask them when Amelia cut in.

"Parameters met. Hydraulics engaged," She grabbed the steering boat and they took off.

"That's it! Come to Papa!" An alien was about to fire at them when Silver ran up.

"Hold your fire! We'll lose the map!" He was not only concerned about that, but about Jim and Ari still. Even when they were against him, he still found himself worried for the two...He tried to move away the gun, but it fired, flying right towards the boat.

"Captain! Laser ball at 12 o'clock!" Delbert cried out, bracing himself. Amelia yanked up the bar, but the cannonball still stuck their ship, the explosion injuring Amelia.

"Amelia! Oh no," Ari went over to her in worry. The boat started to catch on fire, the sails completely gone. And with no sails, they plummeted towards the ground. They crashed into a tree, knocking it off course. The boat jolted as Amelia tried to steer it, but they went straight for another tree. The boat flipped upside down, Jim and Ari hugging each other tightly. It dragged before completely coming to a stop.

After a few seconds, Jim lifted up the ship, rubbing his neck. "Ow..."

"My sentiments exactly..." Ari placed a hand on her forehead, feeling like her head was splitting.

"Oh, my goodness," Delbert adjusted his glasses. "That was more fun than I ever want to have again," He stood up, dusting himself off. Amelia just chuckled and slowly got up.

"That's not one of my gossamer landings," She adjusted herself, but found that her side was in pain. She collapsed onto the ground.

"Captain!" Delbert kneeled down to her as Ari scrambled over to her. Delbert placed a hand on her back and Ari turned around to Jim in concern.

"Both of you help me get her up," She pleaded and they all helped her stand. She nudged their hands away and Jim let go of her.

"Oh, don't fuss, Arianna," Amelia stood up but immediately swayed, falling backwards. Delbert caught her from behind and she pushed him off. "Slight bruising. That's all," She adjusted her hair. "Cup of tea, and I'll be right as rain. Mr. Hawkins," She looked at Delbert instead of Jim, the three glancing at each other. She squinted and finally turned to Jim. "The map, if you please."

Ari didn't look so convinced that she was fine, since she might have a concussion or memory problems given that reaction. But Amelia would insist that she was fine, and she didn't feel like arguing further with the woman right now.

He gasped as he just remembered about it, reaching into his pocket and pulling it out. "Ah," He smiled in relief. But then it floated out of his hand, baffling him and Ari.

"Uhh, was it always able to float?" Ari asked cautiously, pointing up at it. Then the map turned into Morph and he giggled. Ari gasped in disbelief.

"Morph! Morph, where's the map?!" Jim exclaimed as the shape-shifter flew around them. Morph nuzzled into Ari's cheek and she gently pushed him away. He turned into a bundle of rope and the map, jumping into the bundle. "Are you serious?! It's back on the ship?!" He yelled in panic, pointing towards the ship in the distance.

"After all we went through to keep it on us?!" Ari held her head. With no boat to get back, there was no way they could retrieve it. Especially since now that the ship was overtaken by Silver and his crew...

Jim tried to grab Morph in anger while Amelia was listening for something. "Stifle that blob and get low," She warned the group, glaring towards the sky.

Another ship had been deplored to check up on them. "We've got company."

Once the ship passed over, Amelia peeked from underneath the boat, holding her rifle. "We need a more defensible position," She slowly stood up using the gun. "Mr. Hawkins, Arianna, scout ahead," She ordered them, holding out two guns to them.

They took the weapons from her, a worried look still on Ari's face. "Aye, Captain."

"And no canoodling," Amelia warned them, causing them to flinch.

"A-Amelia!" Ari hissed in embarrassment. "We're not gonna-"

"That reminds me, I owe Sarah 50 coins..." Delbert muttered to himself, earning unamused looks from the two.

"Just because you two are now intimate doesn't mean you can slack off."

"W-We won't!" Jim looked away, blushing deeply.

"And you best keep Arianna safe and happy. She's very dear to me. I'll hang you if you hurt her or someone else does it on your watch," Amelia finished, shocking the girl. But then she smiled softly at the woman. Jim placed a hand on the girl's shoulder.

"I promise she'll be safe."

Ari looked away with a blush, but even though it was sweet of him, it bugged her since she didn't know if they were really together or not. They did kiss, but other than that, she hadn't even so much said that she liked him in that way, and vice versa. It hadn't spoken between the two, and yet Jim was fine with the whole...'being intimate' thing.

Amelia tried to stand again, but she nearly fell and Delbert helped her. "Steady, steady," He gently moved her to the ground. "Now, let's have a look at that."

Ari and Jim glanced back in worry for Amelia. Ari herself felt like she wanted to stay and help Amelia. Jim took her hand and she looked back at him.

"The best thing to do for the Captain right now is to find a place for us to hide so she can recover," He assured her. "And she'll be fine with Delbert. Come on."

"...Okay," She murmured in agreement and she let him drag her away. She glanced back at Amelia one last time before they walked off together with Morph.
