~Islas' POV~

Sweet and I have been in Tortuga for the past two days waiting for Barbossa to find me a ship and a crew that I will be paying him back for. However two days is two days too long, I want to be on the Sea by tomorrow and all I can do is wait. All that this waiting has done is allow my anger fester, along with giving my hatred time to turn my heart black, and hard as steel. I got up today getting into my sack, pulling out my clothes for the day, I gave up on wearing pants, Silas liked them more than I did. I pulled on a long sleeve shin length white under dress, before buttoning a reddish-brown corset to my waist. I fixed the strings in the front before pulling on a brown over skirt that was connected to my brown sheath for my sword. I pulled on my brown boots before putting my weapons in place, I pulled on a black long sleeve mid coat that stopped right above my brown sheath belt. It reminded me a bit of Silas' except it wasn't long, I sighed grabbing my black hat with white and brown feathers putting it on while leaving my hair alone. 

I walked out of the room down to the saloon to see Sweet sitting there with Barbossa, I knew this meant one of two things

I walked out of the room down to the saloon to see Sweet sitting there with Barbossa, I knew this meant one of two things. Either he found me a ship and is coming to take me to it, so we can get everything ready, or he hasn't had any luck, and I'm stuck here another day too long. I went to the table taking a seat, I sat back getting comfortable before looking at Barbossa, letting out a small sigh.

"So how's the search coming."

"Finished, found you a ship, now you just need a crew."

I sighed before nodding my head.

"Alright..."

I looked at Sweet before continuing.

"Start sign-ups, I'm going to see our ship, first mate."

He smiled a bit nodding his head before setting up a table with a sign up sheet, I followed Barbossa to the docks. He showed me this beautiful ship with white sales, the mast was a light wood almost gold, the rest of the ship was a darker wood but still kind of light, it was huge and perfect, I smiled seeing the name on the back end. It clearly said Queen of the Sea, I smiled with tears in my eyes knowing that without my King I'll never truly be the Queen I once was. 

I looked at Barbossa and gave him a small sad smile, before letting out a sigh looking back at the ship

I looked at Barbossa and gave him a small sad smile, before letting out a sigh looking back at the ship.

"It's beautiful, thank you for this Barbossa."

"Anytime Isla."

I smiled going aboard the ship, looking around before walking up the stairs to the helm, lightly placing my hand over the smooth wood. I know that this is the beginning of my revenge, I sighed knowing that all I need now is Will Turner the Captain of the Flying Dutchman, and his wife Elizabeth the Pirate lord of Singapore. After I get my crew I'll be heading for Port Royal, I need numbers, and I'll do whatever it takes to get what I need. When I was done looking around the ship I walked down the board going back to the saloon, I saw people lined up. However when I looked at the line I saw that only three were women, I knew then that this was perfect for what I have in mind. I went over to Sweet seeing that we were almost finished and by tomorrow, I'll be back home among the waves.
