Chapter 11: What counts as trust?

Sylvia POV

I was happy. I felt like I was going to cry seeing (Y/N) holding cuffs. When he explained the situation I was extremely relieved, I didn't want Mila to find out that her crush was taking a slave. I walked to the top where Mila was. I reached it seeing Mila and the crew, along with the survivors. Mila was trying to give a speech of choosing life or death, but couldn't with the language barrier. I pull out a pistol and fire it into one of their heads. Mila and everyone else jumped.

Mila: "What in God's name are you doing?!"

Sylvia: "This is a slave ship. You know how this ends."

With those words, the men pull out their pistols and knives and killed the survivors. I beckoned Mila to follow me, and she does. We go somewhere private. I turn to her.

Sylvia: "We have to talk . . ."

I explain the situation between (Y/N) and the girl.

(Y/N) POV

I snuck through most of the crew. I have to stay sharp, nobody can be trusted.

???: "(Y/N)?"

I redact my previous statement. I turn to Ajax to see a worried face.

Ajax: "(Y/N), you know the rules on slavery, only war criminals."

(Y/N): "Ajax, listen . . ."

I explain the whole situation to Ajax. He was thinking during my explanation. He is one of the few people on this ship who is against slavery, which is another reason for him being bullied.

Ajax: "I see. Since we have the same room she will be safe. The Captain, Sylvia, and me are the only ones who known about this plan, besides you of course."

I nod, I was going to tell him anyways, since we bunk together. Of course, I have two others who do as well, but they are good people. Ajax checks the hallway and the corner.

Ajax: "Let's go, nobody is around."

We start to run off towards our room. Misty was tired but was still trying to keep an eye out for the crew. Ajax would stop at every corner to see if anyone was there. Near to the end, Ajax stopped me at the last corner.

Ajax: "Three of them are walking down the hall near our room. Weird, I'll get them."

He sprints towards them, I didn't see but I heard a thud.

Crew: "Hey, watch where you are going, asshole!"

Ajax: "Oh, sorry about that."

A few seconds have passed.

Crew: "That little shit took me wallet, get it!"

They all ran off. I hope he gets away from them . . . actually, this is what I have been training him for, best of luck. I went to our room to find the hulk of a women named Cyan. She was as stubborn as a mule and twice as strong. She was a Romean who broke a few laws involving murder. During a raid from Mila's crew, she broke out of prison and killed two raiding parties with a wooden chair. Sylvia managed to subdue her and with the help of Belleck, she was convinced to join the crew. She is rough and tough, but has a soft side for innocence, especially children. If I needed my luck for anything, now would be the time. She saw Misty in cuffs and got up from bed towards me with a fire in her eyes.

Cyan: "You better have an explanation for this!"

I put my hands up. I knew that when it comes to things that hit her soft spot, she was trustworthy.

(Y/N): "(There is a explanation for this!)"

I explained the whole situation to her, she became more calm as I got further into things but her temper was still there. I finished explaining the problem and my solution. She was never one to trust anybody, not even Belleck. She looks up at Misty.

Cyan: "(Is this true, little girl?)

Misty: "(Yes.)"

She says without hesitation. Cyan smirks and goes back to her bed. I put Misty down knowing that I was safe. I took the cuff off of Misty and put her on my bed. I sat down next to her side and tucked her in. She has had it rough and I intend to have her take it easy. I was about to get up, but I felt something grab my hand. I turned to look at Misty who was staring at me with pleading eyes.

Misty: "(Please stay . . .)"

I nod, she layed back down but didn't let go of my hand. I was hesitant, but I took her hand and used my other to stroke her hair. After what feels like a 20 minutes, she sleeps. I let her hand go and made she that she was tucked in, I saw Cyan looking at me with a smile.

Cyan: "You aren't half-bad as a dad. If I were 15 years younger I would want your babies, hahahaha!"

For a muscle woman who was around in her late 40's, she wasn't bad looking. Her body wasn't wrinkly or saggy, in fact it was strong and firm. She had few wrinkles on her face and her eyes were still full of life. The main reason of why people avoid having any . . . Intimacy with her is that she was too aggressive, in and out of bed. She has long black locks and brown eyes. She likes to use a maul as a weapon along with a rifle.

???: ". . . What did I miss?"

We both turn to see a dark skinned man with brown eyes and a shaved head.

Cyan: "Heya Belleck, you frisky lover boy you!"

Belleck, a man of few words. He also obtained the name 'The tongue who can trick the devil.' He says what is important and only that, and right now I am sitting next to a sleeping 9 year old little girl in the most dangerous ship in the world. The man looks at me expecting an answer. Belleck is a man who knows his way around the black market. We both are cunning men, but I wouldn't haggle with him unless I'm prepared to lose all my coin. From what I have heard, he has been in this crew longer than most. Mila and Sylvia knew him from when they killed the old pirate king. He was in the dungeons for selling the pirate king a skunk carpet. Looked pretty and there was no smell, it was just insulting. When he smiles, which only shows when he is doing business, he has a face that people automatically think of him as trustworthy. But the crew knew better. He walked in and looked at the girl.

Belleck: "What's going on?"

He looks at me calmly, Belleck never was one to care for anything but money. The reason why he cares now is a mystery. I told him the story, Belleck may be a thief who robs people with his voice, but he knows who to keep in his pocket. He persuaded the Captain to be put in a room with the most combat capable people in the whole ship, that's why me and Cyan are in the same room with him. Belleck wouldn't dare snitch on me unless he wants to face me and Cyan. He listens till the end and just shrugs.

Belleck: "You do you."

With that, he leaves. After a while, Ajax enters the room laughing. He looked exhausted.

Ajax: "Oh man, that was close!"

Cyan and I glared at him, he looked uncomfortable. Cyan and I don't agree with each other much, but we have respect for one another. We wanted Misty to sleep. Everyone in this room besides Mila and Sylvia are the only ones whom I trust. I look at Misty, she had dirt all over her and her clothes were disgusting. After she sleeps I am going to have her bathe.

(Y/N): "Cyan, can I have one of your clothes for Misty?"

Cyan: "For the girl, yes. Though I don't think it will fit her."

(Y/N): "Not a problem."

I take out a comfortable outfit for her. I take out my sewing kit and went to work.
