"It's working like a charm" laughed the boy. "Now we've just got one problem left"

"Speaking of which, here she comes" smirked the woman. "So make yourself scarce, and send dear Sinbad this way"

The boy scampered off, leaving a clone of Sinbad in his place just as Maeve came around some trees.

"I know it's tough on you" smiled the woman to Sinbad. "But I'm here now, and you know that I'm not frigid like she is"

"Tell me about" laughed Sinbad. "I mean, how hard is it to get a decent snog around here? I'm not that undesirable am I?"

"Not by my accounts you aren't" flirted the woman.

"Oh Cassandra" smirked Sinbad. "If only all woman were like you, a sailor may actually stand the chance of getting laid once in a while"

At this he grabbed hold of her and stuck his tongue down her throat. Maeve turned around sharply and fled, images of Sinbad snogging Cassandra mixed with his words swum around her head.

"Short but sweet" laughed Cassandra as the clone disintegrated and the boy walked back out.

"Your plan is amazing, I would never have thought of that" he grinned impishly. "You truly do have a wicked mind"

"Now all we have to do is wait for the fireworks to start"

"And you don't think that they'll figure it out, I mean, what about the moor? He was so close? He still is" he pointed out childishly.

"Ah, but whose going to listen to him?" She purred. "Doubar has taken an oath against talking to him until he makes up with Firouz. Firouz is still in a slump about Maeve and Doubar and won't talk to anyone. And I doubt our dear captain or wench will be up to it either. So, all in all, I'd say we've very much won" she laughed.

"I can't wait to start playing with my new toys. I wonder how I'll start first…Maybe I can disguise myself as Sinbad and play with them on the Nomad, make them see ghosts or…"
"I don't care about what you do with them" snapped Cassandra impatiently. "All I care about is Sinbad…who will be mine very shortly"
