"Athena, hurry up and find a spot to sit. We're about to pull out. We need to get back to our docks and get you ready for your dinner date." said Tatura Athena jumped on board the boat. She had an upset stare as she sat down near the sail.
Tatura notices her expression, "Honey why are you so sad? This is only natural. You knew this day was coming." she explained as she sat next to Athena. "I didn't know anything? I was a child, and that's all I knew how to be. I will have dinner with this boy, but there's no way I will marry him." Athena said then she turned her face looking out at the sea.
As their ship got closer to the shore. Jack noticed a pirate ship from a distance. "Sis we must hurry and get out of these waters. It's getting late and the pirates are out hunting for prey," said Jack as he orders the crawl to paddle the ship faster. Tatura looked out to the opened sea and also spotted the pirate ship. "We have plenty of time, they pretty far away." she replied "I know, but we just can't take that chance the princess is on board," he replied
"What about the princess?" said Athena as he walked towards them. "Nothing to worry about the child. Go sit back down, we'll be there in a couple of minutes," said Tatura helping Athena back to her seat.
Athena also glanced out at the sea and noticed the skeleton head that was floating above the approaching ship. She realizes that for some reason this ship that was approaching was scaring Jack and Tatura. Athena smile, "That's the ship I must sneak on, they'll never look for me there." she thought.
When they finally reach the shore. Jack and his crew tied up the ship to the docks and helped Princess Athena and Tatura off the ship. The pirate's ships were still a distance away, but Athena could still see it's a flag, floating above the waters.
Once on land they quickly head back towards the castle. Now up the hill and around the trees was the entrance to the King David's castle. Everything at the castle was ready waiting for the young prince arrival. King David was very nervous about the whole ordeal. He knew his daughter well. They haven't returned jet and this was making him worry. "Jeffrey, where is my daughter? She should have been here by now," he said to his servant. "No need to worry, I see them, they're coming down the Lilly, flower's path.
