It's the next morning and the ship is already sailing towards the militia base. Hillanter takes the napsack with the noble in it, and brings it in front of the whole crew.
"This is the guy." Hillanter said, plopping the knapsack onto the ground. The noble inside the knapsack was squirming around, and screaming. His screams were muffled.
"What made you think that kidnapping a noble who is a worker for the militia and putting him on our boat!?" Yunga shouted.
"He might have some more information about them."
"Didn't you hear what the mayor said? If we make a single wrong move, they are gonna blow us up!"
"That's only if they find out, if they don't, then it's no problem."
"That's the problem, if they find out! We're fucked!"
"Yunga does bring up a good point." Zunci said, kicking the napsack to get the noble inside to shut up.
"Let's at least try to get some information out of him." Shug chimed in. "Since he's already here we might as well."
"Shut up!" Yunga yelled.
"Fine then." Shug said, walking away.
"Shug! Come on." Zunci said, running towards Shug.
"You know what?" Yunga said, walking over to the knapsack. "Let's take him out." Yunga untied the knapsack and the noble came crawling out.
"Oh, god!" The noble gasped. "Where am I?" He looked up at Hillanter. "You! What the fuck do you want from me!?"
"Just tell us some information about your group and we'll let you go." Hillanter threatened him, picking him up by the collar of his shirt.
"Ok! Ok! I will, just don't hurt me! Please!" The noble pleaded.
Hillanter put him down and he fell flat on his back. "Better start talking!"
"I will!" The noble was now frantically speaking.
Shug is in the captain's cabin looking out the window at the ocean. Zunci opens the door and enters.
"Shug?" Zunci nervously asked.
"What do you want?" Shug asked, in an annoyed tone.
"Just wanted to check up on you. I wanna know how you're doing."
"Oh, me? I'm doing fine." Shug sarcastically said.
"Now I know that's a lie."
"No shit."
"Come on now, don't give me that attitude."
Shug just kept staring out the window and didn't respond to Zunci.
"You're just gonna give me the cold shoulder now?"
"Just go away would ya?"
"Nope. I'm not gonna."
"Welp if you're gonna stay then just be quiet."
Zunci pulled up a chair and sat right next to Shug. Zunci looks directly at Shug who isn't looking at her, but still looking out at the ocean. Shug takes a glance at Zunci who is still staring at him.
"Fine, I'll talk." Shug finally said, breaking the silence. "If that'll get you to stop staring at me, then I'll do it."
"Yay!" Zunci cheered, throwing her arms in the air.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"I want to know more about you!"
"Me? Are you sure? I'm not really that interesting."
