At Ursula's fish and chips

Uma stop brainstorming when she realized that none of her solutions are immediate. All of her ideas will take time. She looked at Harry who was eating the fish in delight. She is struck with him for at least few days.

"Tomorrow, we are putting our boots on the ground and talking to the vendors about better weapons."

" I know a guy that can help us." Said Harry. Harry doesn't like talking to the guy but desperate times call for desperate measures. Uma nodded. " but how do we deal with this tonight?" He asked as he points to the cuffs. Uma sighed.

"Well, for one you are staying at my place because I have a shift in the morning." Said Uma. Harry thought about it. His dad doesn't care where he is at. But he doesn't know if he trust Uma enough to actually rest properly in her presence.

"Lead the way to your place. You need to pack an overnight bag." Said Uma. Harry pointed his hook at her.

"If you tell anyone where I live, I will hook ya and use you as live bait for tick tock's kids." Said Harry. Uma looked interested.

"Tick tock had kids?"she asked. Harry nodded. He explained tick tock mated with a local crocodile few years ago. Harry and his sisters got to name them.

Harry doesn't see his sisters often since they join different crews in various parts of the isle. He thinks they did it so they won't be associated with the rumored psychopath. People like evil within reason. People doesn't like evil with insanity.

"I will show when we get there." He said. They left the restaurant. They few blocks block down and near the docks. Harry lived on the Jolly Roger. They climbed down from the dock to where the rocks meets the water. There was crocodiles resting. Harry whistled. One crocodile surfaced from the water. He saw Harry and looked disappointed.

"That's tick tock." Said Harry. Uma wanted to pet the crocodiles but resist the urge. Harry pointed to each crocodile and introduced them to Uma. Then They went back to the dock and entered the ship. Uma was impressed by the ship interior and design of the ship.

Harry was walking to the living quarters within the ship. He heard his father voice.

"-that king would never let any of us leave!"said Captain Hook.

"Sir, the prince is one proposing the idea lettting the kids of isle leave."said mister Smee. They were approaching the corner. Harry quickly entered random room and pull Uma by the wrist inside.

"Why are you hiding?"asked Uma. Harry was hiding because he didn't want to be embarrassed by his dad. Captain Hook is always telling Harry stop flirting and actually attempt to get girlfriend that can hopefully be his first mate. Captain Hook has regrets of not making his wife apart of the crew.

Harry isn't looking for love and ain't trying to add fuel to the fire by bringing a girl home to spark his father's delusions. He thought his dad was at work. He owns the local bar.

Harry ignored her question and hide in the empty office until they pass by. Then Harry took Uma to his bedroom. Harry bedroom was tiny. There was hammock in the corner of the room. A display case of random golden objects.

"This is a shoebox."said Uma as harry started packing a bag. Harry shrugged.

"It's used to be storage room. I demanded my own room after sharing with my sisters for years."said Harry. Uma looked at the tiny window near the hammock.

"At least you have a view." She said. The view was just of the ocean. Harry scoffed.

" what view?only I see is a ocean that I was never get to experience."said Harry bitterly. Uma became a pirate because of her love for the sea. Harry was a pirate because he was born into it. So Uma understood is longing for adventure but surprised that he felt same about barriers as she did.

Most kids just want better living conditions on the isle but they don't want to actually leave it. They are fine being separated for the rest of the world.

Harry finished packing. He left Harry room. Harry was cautious as they travel around the ship. He didn't want to get caught by his father. Once they were off the ship when mister smee saw them. Mister smee was also leaving the dock.

"Oh Harry you back." Said mister smee. He waved to Uma. Uma politely waved back to elderly man. Mister smee noticed the cuffs. He opened his mouth to question it when Harry grab the old man with his hook. He glared into his face.

"You saw nothing, got it?" Said Harry with a threatening smile. Mr smee nodded. Harry let him go before walking away. They went back to the restaurant. Harry was confused until Uma lead them through the kitchen and to hidden staircase. They walked up the stairs to a cozy apartment. Uma went to her room. Her room was decent size. She had a queen bed with brunch of pillows.

"Is that even bed?I can see from all the pillows."joked Harry. Uma closed her curtains as she responded to him.

"At least I have a bed unlike you."said Uma. Harry raised an eyebrow.

"Are you sure you are a pirate? Cuz all pirates know why hammocks are used not a bed."said Harry. Harry learnt how to be pirate from his father. Harry doubt Uma even set foot on a ship before today.

"Are you sure you are pirate? Cuz all pirates have a ship."Uma points out. Harry didn't own a ship but his father promise the jolly rogers to him in his will.

" you don't have ship either."Harry retorts. Uma opened one of her curtains to point at the ship at the dock.

"That's my ship."she said proudly. The ship used to a supplier ship that auradon sends to the isle with the bare minimum resources that they willing to give to the villains. Uma and her crew stole one of ship. It was their debut as an official crew. They spent the next few months revamping it to their style.

Harry was impressed that she was one who stole the supplier ship. The auradon guards were demanding the ship back for months on the news until they gave up. Uma could be great ally for Harry but Uma is just too annoying for Harry taste. She isn't fear to go toe to toe with him. She doesn't back down at the first sight of danger. She plays by her own rules.
