The two pirates retreated back to their ship, intending to wait out the growth of the beans so they could take some of the crop. Entire orchards had been known to spawn from one bean, so neither Jones thought one or two beans would go amiss.

"Just like old times," Kiliah said, stroking the side of the ship. Hook looked over. "Waiting around for an escape route from the safety of the Jolly Rodger. Time to pick up where we left off, don't you think?"

Hook grinned. "Absolutely. And with this lot stuck here, the Enchanted Forest is ours."

Kiliah smiled, but not truthfully. She didn't want the Enchanted Forest - she wanted the sea. To sail and never stop, that was her life. She had no place on land. But most of all, she wanted her revenge. "We're going to need provisions for our trip, pa," she reminded him. "Best to stock up now while we're still at port."

"Aye love," he nodded, turning. "Stay here, I won't be long."

She watched him go with a small, sad smile. The poor, ignorant fool. As he disappeared behind the buildings, Kiliah leaped into action, readying the ship to sail. A ship such as the Jolly Rodger was not easy to captain single-handedly, but she was no novice.

Kiliah hoisted the sails and lifted the anchor and a gust of wind sent her on her way. She dug into her pocket as she reached the wheel and studied the map she had taken from the library, plotting her route before looking out to the open sea ahead.
