~Islas' POV~

It's been four days since we left Tortuga, and as of right now we're about an hour away from docking in Port Royal. Hopefully there I'll be able to get some new clothes, it's been difficult living in the same dress. However I haven't slept since we left Tortuga, I've been so focused on getting followers, I guess all I can do now is hope to have the entire Turner family's support. I looked at my crew seeing them hard at work and Sweet giving orders like a pro, all I could do was chuckle. Since I made an example of the last man who questioned me, no one else has made an attempt. I'm especially impressed with how the women are coping, they've done so well with following orders, and we've even become close friends. I know that's not professional of me but they're amazing women, so strong, and independent, the only one I can't figure out is Decka Silver. She's so different from the other girls, I'm honestly surprised that she is even considered friends with the other women. She's so hard, and cold, it's hard to get close to her, she seems to like me, she even confided with me about how she ended up on Tortuga. When I finally realized that I could trust not only her but the rest of the girls as well I told them of my past, and how I ended up in Tortuga that last time. They were all very understanding, aside from Decka and I the other two were whores trapped in the saloon in Tortuga. They planned to join the next crew that was signing, they did this without their employers permission, or even knowledge for that matter. They ran away like I did to be free, to live without someone restricting them, ordering them around, I know exactly how they feel. I was pulled from my thoughts by Sweet coming over standing next to me, I gave him a small smile and I knew that he could see how tired I was. However he's smart enough not to say a thing, he was smart enough to know that I have no intention of sleeping until I at least get to talk to Will and Elizabeth. He sighed before taking the helm from me motioning towards the bench at the stern of the ship, just behind us. I sighed, shaking my head silently telling him no, knowing that the moment I sat down I'll fall asleep. When we finally pulled into docks at Port Royal I sighed letting the men dock it before seeing the harbor master come over.

"It's ten shillings to dock here."

I laughed, looking at my crew before nodding my head.

"Very well, men take the ship away from the dock, then come ashore in the dinghies."

They nodded their heads doing as I said, I smirked at the harbor master.

"Now how much for the dinghy?"

He sighed.

"Nothing Ma'am."

"That's what I thought, thank you."

With that I walked away going through the streets before seeing Elizabeth and Will outside the blacksmith. 

I sighed walking to them however before I got to close Will pulled his sword, and Elizabeth pulled a dagger
