I secure the lines, guarding my eyes from the rising sun. I push my hair out of my eyes, still soaked it sticks to my face and gets in my way. I sigh a bit, twenty four hours ago I was a few days away from by first proper treasure, on my own ship, captaining my own crew (even if most of them were fools,) and now I am a lackey for this strange man, on a course to, who knows where.
I take a deep breath and work on the lines more.

Now it's the sun rising and I've not got a clue as to where we are. "You!" I call Evans. "You hold the helm. AnaMaria is unforunately not... here. You change course, you can push yourself to the brig, you hear?"

I nod, running up to take the helm. I keep my hands gripped tightly on the wheel, I turn it only to keep it from hitting a reef or two that pops up. I see land off to the port side, faint streak of yellow on the otherwise blue, shimmering horizon.
(sorry, I assumed it was just laying there so she could keep course)

I ran around, doing as Jack told me. We pulled the anchor up-a few crewmen and myself- and secured it in its place. I secured lines and pulled the sails tight. I decided after a sigh and a glance at both Jack and the new woman that I would relieve Larry from the crows nest. I was sure I wouldn't be missed.
((Hey, can we maybe get a post order established? Cause it really kinda sucks that I'm getting left out.))

(You're not being left out, mate. haha Nothing's really happened, this is how RP's work. We'll make sure you're not left out I'll make sure of that ) "Oi! You!" I call up to Miss Black, who went up to the crow's nest. "I need you down here!" I didn't know how long she'd been on my ship, but I'd accepted her as crew by now.

(yeah we will try to keep you involved . in my other rp it sometimes goes 10 pages without me posting. ) I look up as Jack calls to the girl. I feel sore all over, I had thrown everything into saving the Maniot during that storm, and I had swam with all my strength to gather things out of it. Despite my sleepiness I know I wouldn't sleep even if I wasn't at the wheel, I didn't know this crew yet, and though they saved us I was wary of them.

((It's ok. I'm just used to Rping with only like...me and one other person. So, being behind by five pages is just weird for me. It's no big deal just...different. Ya know? )) I looked down at Jack. Why couldn't he have said something before I got all the way up here? I grabbed a rope and slid down, landing skillfully on my feet on the deck. "Yes, Captain?" I asked, walking over to him.

(haha okay ) "Sorry, and all," I say, pointing at the crow's nest. Under my breath so only Anna could hear, I say, "That girl seems a bit... tired. And I don't trust her. You take over the helm, and instruct her to stay in my cabin." Anna raises an eyebrow. I actually don't want anything from Lola Evans right now, to be honest. "No, I don't want anything from her right now. Really."

I shook my head, almost disgusted. I knew he would try to take advantage of her later. He manipulates women. "Yes, Captain." I repeated and walked away. "Miss. Evans? Captain wants you to stay in his cabin for now." I told her, gesturing towards the double doors below the helm. I walked up the steps and took the helm as he instructed, although I didn't know a great deal about sailing the ship. I don't know why he didn't just ask Anamaria to take it over.
