Sorry for the very late update again, I've been so busy with my new school and I've been getting lots of homework and deadlines so I'm sorry, but I'll try to update when I can. But thanks for 73k reads, please like vote and comment. And this will be a long chapter but I'll be splitting it into 2 parts so enjoy.

-Sparrow-

"Now we must travel a couple of days, maybe a week, it depends on if the snow gets heavy. We will travel by horse cause soldiers are gonna be everywhere and it's gonna be faster than walking." Johnathan told us.

"This guy can help you set up trading and give yourself some friends or allies here." Johnathan continued and then looked at me. "I mean you can't have cold blooded killers working for you but I mean mercenary is always willing to work."

We all sat down on a table, everyone was here except for Victoria. She's been in the room for a while now and it's quite boring without her around.

"We'll have to join to small groups or smaller 'cause you can never be too careful." We all nodded.

"Well how about me and Edward? It'll be easier." Arthur said.

"I'll go with James. I'll get him there quicker." Jacob said.

"Guess I'm with you then." Everyone turned around to see Victoria walking towards us.

"Is it just me or is she glowing?" Jacob said shocked. She walked toward me and sat next to me, she definitely was glowing.

"Well I'll leave tonight and you all leave tomorrow or the next night. We don't want anyone to suspect anything and go separately." Johnathan stood up from the table and left us and walked down the stairs.

"Hello, Sparrow." Victoria whispered to me.

"You're glowing." I told her. She let out a little giggle, that sounded beautiful. "It's a good thing."

"So where are we going?" She asked me.

"Erm, no idea Johnathan gave us a map and directions. We'll leave in a couple of days." I told her, she nodded understanding. I looked down at her hand to see the ring, I looked back at her and smiled.

"It's a definite yes?" I whispered to her making her smile and nodded.

"Daughter, may I speak with you?" We both looked at her father who didn't look happy.

"Yes of course." She stood up and placed her hands on her back.

-Victoria-

"Yes?"

"Listen I'm not happy that you're close to him, but if you're happy then I'll try to get along with him." My father words shocked me. I hugged my father.

"Thank you." I pulled away from the hug.

"I shouldn't of let them take you away. You wouldn't have been in any of this mess, you could be in school and happy." My father said to me but I just shook my head.

"I'm happy being what I am now. I'd rather having Sparrow looking after me than Arthur and Liz up my back every second. And plus you were never there for me." I said to him and then walked away from him. Then I turned around.

"You need to understand that I'm happy with Sparrow." Then I turned back around and walked towards Sparrow.

"You okay?" I just nodded. "If we leave tomorrow, we'll get there in a couple of weeks." Sparrow knew there was something wrong but he knew I didn't want to talk about it. So he grabbed my arm gently and pulled me along to our room.
