I love you guys so much. I wanted to tell you that before I started this chapter for y'all. You're the reason I keep writing.

"Logan?"

The blue haired girl has no words as of right now. It feels like her whole world might be crumbling, then remaking itself over and over again.

The blonde fellow in front of her seems to be having a hard time as well. His green eyes are looking over her entire being in confusion.

"Arthur?" She asks back, "Okay, how the fuck are you alive?" She looks between the two former pirates with a look of disbelief.

"How are you alive?" Arthur shoots back, setting forward to touch her. "Wow, you are real."

She smacks his hands away with a slight dirty look while Antonio simply says, "Time travel."

"Time travel?" Arthur asks, even more confused.

"Look, man, it all started a couple of weeks ago when I was walking home from college one night when out of nowhere I get pushed and I'm falling- like Alice in Wonderland. Then, I wake up in your ship," She shrugs slightly, "Then, I traveled after that when this bastard threw me in the ocean and shot me."

"How are you back here?" Arthur looks over her again, "Are you still injured?"

"Well, the bullet wound is healed, but I kind of tackled someone off a cliff and hurt myself even more. Now, I'm here." She gives him a slight grin, "I'm pretty careless, aren't I?"

Arthur ignores her last statement, touching his chin slightly, "I remember you freaking out when you first woke up on my ship. You kept saying stuff like the 'twentieth century' and you have blue hair. I should've thought something about it."

"Well, we all know you aren't the sharpest." Antonio says with a kind smile.

"You didn't really know much back then. For all you know, I could've been a witch or something." Logan cuts in, giving Antonio a dirty look.

"I feel like I'm not welcome here, so I'm going inside." Antonio offers another smile towards the glaring girl, "I'm sorry about sending you over board."

"Water under the bridge, captain." She says with a small dry smile, "See you later."

After Antonio walks inside the room, there's an awkward silence.

"So, you thought I was dead." Logan says, "Were you sad?"

"Of course I was. You may have been a stranger, but you still were part of my crew." Arthur says with a soft smile, "Though, I was kind of a jerk."

"Yeah, but I suppose pirates are supposed to be jerks." She gives him a small grin, "I'm glad that you're alive... So... How are you alive?"

Arthur hesitates, "I can't really tell you."

"Huh? Why not?" Logan asks, which comes out more of a whine than anything.

"I don't know if I can."

"Why? Will you like explode if you tell me? Oh! Are you guys like angels? Cause one time I heard if you tell someone that you're an angel, you are sent back up to heaven."
