It's been a month since the VKs and Uma's crew got into that long lasting fight. In that month a lot of things have happened. The VKs had no choice but to go home without their dear friend. They haven't given up but they're under the watchful eye of fairy godmother. Mal joined an art club and started dating Jay of all people. Carlos made new friends but misses Evie deeply. Ben and Chad started dating, no one saw that coming.

Back in the isle CJ joined Uma's crew but still leaves for adventures. Informing Uma a week before she leaves. Uma tells her to take a couple of crew members but she only ever takes Gil. Mildred's parents disowned her. So they never came home. Dizzy moved in with her but still works for her grandmother. Freya basically lives on the Lost Revenge when her father comes home. After a while she moved in with Mildred as well, leaving the cave once and for all. She goes on adventures with CJ and Gil on occasion. She refers to them as the Blonde Wonders, the name stuck. Evie and Harry traded the hammocks for a bed that takes up half the room. Harry takes Evie when he goes to 'collect' Uma's money. Evie always ends up stealing nice jewelry or accessories while they 'collect' she's not part of the crew not by title anyway.

So weird shit happened. CJ and Gil became best friends. When it first happened they had just come back from an adventure. He told her he would give his last pound of shrimp away if it meant seeing her smile. She giggled. Harry tried to kill Gil claiming Gil has put a spell on CJ. CJ punched him and told him she was fine. Freya said she had no spell or curse on her. CJ thanked Gil and kissed him on the lips like a five year old kisses another five year old innocently. People where confused ass fuck. CJ told them that they had nothing romantic going on. It was just an innocent kiss. Dizzy and Harry surprisingly became good friends. It all started when Dizzy would come on the ship to see Freya. Who felt like a caged animal. She found Harry reading one of her favorite books. 'Of mice and Men ' she started talking to him about it, he said he had read it a 100 times. A friendship was born of books and sharp weapons. Freya and Evie became quite close as well. It started when Evie caught Freya dancing like an angel surrounded by red.

Evie immediately asked to dance with her. So they did that for hours that's how Harry found them. Dred and Uma where unexpected. They became friends because Mildred wanted to learn about the ship so Uma taught her everything, Mildred basically became a pirate. Uma almost wished she was her first mate. Almost.

People referred to Harry and Evie as the married couple. Even though they weren't a couple. Freya, Mildred, and Dizzy are known as their kids. Uma is the protective cool aunt. Gil and CJ are the teenagers. Mal, Jay, and Carlos are known as the distant relatives. Even crew members have accidentally referred to Uma as auntie Uma. They walked the plank. Evie and Harry ignore the chatter of course they know they're just friends, who sleep in the same bed, who buy each other gifts, like dancing together, and laughing at each other's lame jokes.

Mildred and Harry became friends after someone was bad mouthing him. She didn't care that he was 6'3 or that he almost beat her bloody she fought for Harry's honor. He found out of course and killed that stupid fucker for hurting a child. He visited her and they bonded over the fact that she managed to give a 6'3 200 pound man a black eye and a broken nose. CJ and Freya's bonding moment was weird they where fishing in a small island far from the isle and they started talking about the golden hook, which Freya confirmed it did exist. Gil and Dizzy bonded over graffiti. She loves it and he loves helping a lady in need. They all kinda accidentally became a family.

No one knows how to take it. It just happened one day and it scares them that they can love so many people. Mildred thinks it will be alright. Uma thinks it's bad loving so many people especially since they have so many enemies.
