Thanks for the reviews. The chapter title means Royal in Dutch (or at least that's what the translator said) Here's the next chapter. Enjoy.

"William, what in the bloody hell..."

The person on Will's right clapped their hands and everyone left the hut.

"Authority with the clap of a hand, and I take it you're..."

"Oh shut up Jack!" The other person stood up and it was obvious that Elizabeth was somehow involved in this affair as well.

Will rolled his eyes and got out of his seat.

James was the first to crack just looking at their outfits. "Did you get dressed together?" he asked, wiping away a tear.

"They've decided to forgo being married and gone straight to twins," Jack muttered loudly in the man's ear causing more laughter.

Will was allowed to keep his brown breeches but his shirt was removed along with his boots. Instead he wore moccasins on his feet and the rest of him: arms, face, torso was covered in strange yellow, green and brown makeup.

Elizabeth wore a long, dark brown dress that tied around her neck with the strange make-up all over her as well. They both were necklaces with large medallions on them, Will's had the moon and Elizabeth's had the sun.

"Did I ever tell you about the time I was chief of a tribe?" Jack asked wiping away a tear.

"We don't have time for that Jack," Will said shaking his head. "They're keeping us here against our will. They kidnapped us."

"Kidnapped you? But it seems as though you're royalty to them?" James asked a bit more seriously.

"Don't ask us how that happened," Will said, shaking his head.

"I just want to get out of here. I have no idea what's going on but I'm really afraid," Elizabeth said.

Will wrapped an arm around her and held on tightly.

Jack touched the back of her hand. "We'll find some way of freeing the two of you."

Suddenly, one of the warrior people appeared in the doorway and began shouting. Jack quickly let go but he and James were led out of the room shouting about the unfairness of it all. Will and Elizabeth looked at each other as their attendants began walking back into the hut.

Elizabeth reached out a hand to touch his and he took it and squeezed tightly.

"We'll get out of this," he mouthed to her.

Elizabeth looked at him slightly confused. "What?" she mouthed back.

Will sighed; he'd forgotten that Elizabeth was horrible at reading lips, and squeezed tighter instead.

Elizabeth was cleaning a pot when she heard footsteps approaching. Everyone cowered away from the door when it opened but it was only one of the other crewmen.

"Back to work Ladies," he said, filling a cup with water and leaving again.

The girls all looked at each other fearfully and did their duty. Suddenly they heard moaning coming from outside as well. Moaning that was very familiar to Elizabeth.

"Hey," Sarah to her right said getting her attention, "get back to work."

"We don't all want to suffer just because of some little noise," Noelle said banging the pot slightly.

"But I know that voice..." Elizabeth said, looking to the door again.

"You know a voice, from a moan?" Sarah asked shrewdly.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Elizabeth?" a voice whispered through.

"Will," Elizabeth said running to the door. She tried to open it, but the door was locked.

The other girls looked at each other fearfully but went back to working again.

"Elizabeth, are you all right?" Will asked.

"Yes, yes I'm fine. I'm busy though," she said.

Elizabeth laid a hand against the door, wishing she could just touch him; be able to run her fingers through his hair again.

"I promise you that I'll get all of us off of this ship," he said.

Walking through the village, Elizabeth wondered how they hadn't found these people in the first place. Granted, they hadn't really been on the island long but they would've heard them, right? She and Will woke up in the village so they didn't even know how far from the beach they were at the moment.

As she walked past, many of the people bowed to her. She was sure that if Will was here, the same would be happening as well. This partially reminded her of being back in Port Royal; as she was of the higher class, many of the people would bow their heads in honor of her. She hated it there and she hated it now as well.

"Elizabeth!" Will ran towards her and the villagers now literally had their faces in the mud they were bowing so low.

"What is it Will?"

He looked at the villagers confused but continued. "They want you back at the hut. I think. I still don't know what they're saying but I came to find you anyway because I was getting worried."

Elizabeth put her hand to his cheek and kissed him.

She linked arms with him and they walked back together. When they arrived back, the people converged on them, attempting to touch any part of their bodies but the tribe's leaders (the oldest men) forced them away.

"Ga!" one of them said, using a wooden stick like a staff.

"Doesn't anyone speak English?" Will asked aloud.

"Bereid hen op de ceremonie voor." They managed to pick up one word from that sentence.

"Ceremony? What ceremony?" Elizabeth asked.

They began to push Will and Elizabeth towards the hut again.

"Wij moeten hun geheugen terug brengen. Wij moeten hen terug naar ware vorm opnieuw brengen."

Will and Elizabeth continued to protest but unfortunately it fell on deaf ears.

-Bereid hen op de ceremonie voor. "Prepare them for the ceremony."

-Wij moeten hun geheugen terug brengen. Wij moeten hen terug naar ware vorm opnieuw brengen. "We have to bring their memories back. We have to bring them back to true form again."

Just a note: No, the tribe is not cannibalistic. It's my own made up group so no people are not going to eat other people.

Thanks for reading.
