Andrea clmbed up the rigging happily. Her mother was so over protective. Only of her it seemed. She stood up at the highest point of the ship. She loved the wind ruffling her hair. She would live up here if she could. It seemed odd to be on a ship with all of the cadets. They were nice but regarded her oddly. She had convinced them though that she was only the cabin girl and not Amelia's daughter. Though out of her other three siblings she looked the most like thier mother. Not that she minded being a daughter of the famous captain, she just knew she would be sucked up to because of all the evalutions. She'd rather be a lowly cabin girl and be left alone. She spied Mandy coming up from the galley.
"Perfect." She whispered to no one.
Andrea grabbed a rope and slid down jumping around silently and ending up with tremendous spped right in front of Mandy.
"Pirates!!!!!!" She yelled into her sister's ear.
"Ahhhhh! Andrea! Where are they?"
Mandy was petrified and Andrea could hold her face no longer. She began to laugh.
"You.. should... have seen.. your face!!!"
Andrea went back to laughing. Mandy swung her black hair out of her eyes.
"That wasn't funny. I'm not used to ships. Stop being such a trickster."
"What? I've hardly ever been on ships. Usually Captain takes you or David on trips. Since I may cause too much trouble."
"Well I would have rather you gone."
"Why? I would do anything to go on a long trip!"
"I don't. I'd rather just stay on land. A ship ride once in a while."
"You're as bad as Terry. Land lubber."
"I am not!"
They turned to see the captain coming out of her stateroom.
"You're in for it now Andrea." whispered Mandy.
"Yeah, sure."

Half an hour before.
Amelia walked into her state room. She closed the door behind her.
"Captain."
"Mr. Hawkins, sorry Captain Hawkins."
"Captain, its Jim."
"Technically no. Its Captain. And I'm Amelia."
Amelia smiled slightly at her own joke. Jim smiled and turned back to the charts.
"So do you want the honour or giving the first lecture or shall I? I'm thinking about becoming the hated one first."
"You hated? Never."
"I seem to remember Mr. Arrow telling me. Hmmm. Lets see "It's my map and she's got me busting tape..."
Amelia raised her eyebrow and waited for the explaination.
"Ok, ok so you can be rough around the edges."
"Since when Cap.. Jim did you become so wonderful at guessing people's natures?"
"Hidden talent."
"What ever you say, Captain. So may I request to know as why we are so near a pirate populated area. Hoping to catch a glimpse of Silver, I presume."
Jim looked up from the charts, stunned. "How did you?"
"Mr. Hawkins.. Captain.. Jim... It was rather obvious. I chose not to say anything."
"But you hate pirates!"
"Yes Jim I do." Amelia turned and gave Jim a cold glare. "I have my reasons."
Jim had never heard these reasons and never knew if he wanted to. Even Doctor had only heard a little from captain. She never talked about her past. Never made links to it. The only time she did was a few comments about the Academy and her days at it. And even those were short, abrupt and said with little humour.
"But you didn't tell anybody."
"Should I have?" She gave him an appraised look. "I thought you might not want me to. You had a freindship with Silver and I'll respect it. But Jim, only because its you. You have talent and Silver helped you find it. Anyone else and that pirate would be dead."
Jim collapsed into a chair. A scream sounded out from deck.
"That'll be Amanda. I suppose Andrea did something. Hawkins, am I right to presume this conversation needn't to be repeated again?"
Jim just gaped. He wanted to ask so many questions. Why she hated pirates. Why she let Silver go even though he had started the mutiny.
"I... I..."
"Very well. I am sure the topic will come up again but if it does, it is only between you and I? Will you agree to that?"
"Yes, yes."
"Good."
Amelia walked out of the room and onto deck. Andrea was laughing at Amanda. Must have scared her again. Just like I would have done.
