(A Month Later)

It has been a month since we sailed out to sea. Me and my brother have gotten even closer over the last month. The crew members seem to like me. Archer and Alistair are well...Archer and Alastiar. They haven't said maybe two words to me all this time.

"WE ARE DOCKING IN A FEW MINUTES!" Pip yells. We have decided to grab more supplies from one of the island villages in Ireland. I can't wait. 

5 Minutes Later

We have finally made it to land. I don't use the latter to climb off the boat I just decided to hop over the side landing on my feet. 

"You never ceased to amaze me, Mary," My brother says to me. I shrug and turn around. I smile at the townspeople, the music, and the children running around playing. I walked not paying attention to where I was going and knocked into a child knocking her over. 

"Oh my goodness, are you okay?" I ask bending down and offering her my hand.

"Wow, a princess pirate," She says taking my hand and I just chuckle.

"Are you okay?" I ask her and she nods

"Miss you are very pretty," She tells me

"What is your name?" I ask

"My name is Erin, miss," She says holding out her hand for me to shake. I smile shaking it.

"My name is Maria," I say

"ERIN! WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT BOTHERING OUR GUEST!" What seems to be her mother yells.

"Oh, mam. She isn't a bother. Actually, she was just telling me and my crew," I say pointing to the guys. "Where the nearest Tavern is," I say to her

"Well, my momma and I own a Tavern just down the street. FOLLOW ME!" Erin exclaims grabbing my hand and pulling me along. I look back and see the men chuckling.

10 Minutes Later

We make it to the Tavern which Erin and her mother run. I go in and am hit with beautiful music, dancing, and laughing. I couldn't help but smile. We take a seat at an empty table.  I watch as men slam the door open and begin to chant/sing. I smile as cheers erupt. Erin comes and sits on my lap and I don't complain seeing how happy she is.

Ships on vigor of the waves are skimming
Barren summits to the verdant plains
Each horizon is a new beginning
Rise and reign

Far from the fjords and the ice-cold currents
Ravens soar over new frontiers
Songs and sagas of a fate determined
Shields and spears


I put Erin on her feet and began to dance with her. I notice people watching us and smiling spinning Erin around.
