Arthur held onto Skylla tighter, " Like hell I would take orders from you." Oliver kept the dead glare in his eye as he smiled at him, " You know she has nothing to do with this.". "Oliver... what happen to you...?" Skylla spoke drawing Oliver's attention to her, she was surprised yet her gaze felt like sorrow to him. His eyes softened a little and gave a calm smile to her, " Why nothing love." he replied as if nothing happened. Skylla looked even more confused and decided to make her move, "Sorry Arthur, you need to let go. I need to do something." Arthur barley heard her and before he knew it, she broke from his grip and tied his coat sleeves together and grabbed his pistol aiming at Oliver. " Now if anyone is as confused as I am and has no damn idea what the hell is happening come over here now."
Only Gilbert moved, " OK, this is obviously mutiny. Now tell me who Mr. Lane is.". Oliver and Olivia chuckled a little. "It's hard to say love, but I guess we need to come clean." he stated. she didn't take her eyes off Oliver for one second as Olivia explained herself. "I was Mr. Lane. It all started when I was in an asylum, it was on a lane that I have long forgotten to forget the name of. Anyway I broke out and gotten revenge on everyone who put me there and saved my brother you stare intensely at. Our parents were horrible and actually drove us insane, ironically they thought we were crazy and made us crazy by treating us like it.". Skylla nodded and breathed out a bit relaxing, Arthur gave Skylla an angry look for what she did to his coat while Oliver caught sight of it and laughed a bit. " Love you are wonderful, making that fool look like one.", Skylla just shook her head, "Now about.. Olivia is it? What is this all about drowning yourself and cross dressing?".
"I was wanting some fun and a way to get out of London so I cut off my hair, dressed as a man and my brother and me went as pirates. It was wa---ay before you came along so we planned to get the crew to agree to over throwing the ship once we got the gold, burn it, and go on our merry way. But then you altered the plans a little, I didn't know you faked being dead and you saw me shoot them and laughed... you are very smart and could tell I was faking my voice. So I hurried back to the ship before you boarded and as we sailed I faked my plummet from the crow's nest the first storm that came and laid low. My brother took on being Mr. Lane for a while until today when I talked to the pirates you listened in on in the kitchen."
"They have names you know.." Skylla bluntly pointed out and Olivia just laughed, "Ha! Now I know why my brother was interested in you. Now let bygones be bygones and join the fun! Girls got to stick together right?". "Hell no." she said instantly. Olivia was taken aback by that and started to pout and whined like a child, "But why?".Skylla lowered her arm and started to walk to Olivia, "For one you are a horrible sister. Take it from me when I say it, I have 2 big ones and 5 little ones and they are in no way as fucked up as you. We basically went through the bowls of hell but kept each other away from madness, not drag them into more! Number two, life is a sacred thing and treating it like a game pisses me off more than these damn chains I wear!"
Skylla was letting her anger out and you could tell she was scaring a few of the crew members when she got into Olivia's face, picked her up to her eye level and shacked all the weapons off of her then spoke again. " And three...You are only crazy is because your parents were right...They saw it within you all this time because I can tell the way Oliver's gaze is so different from yours. If they treated you the same you'd be on the same boat. But one of you is, and the other is in the crow's nest.". Her words were like shooting a gun in Olivia's head, resonating in her skull and shocking her back to truth. It was silent until Olivia smiled again and started to laugh loudly. She has snapped.
Skylla had to throw her away for being to close to her ears, "My god you are a little bitch! Acting all tough, telling me my flaws?! You dark piece of shit, you never thought about the consequences of your actions have you? Going off protecting your family, and for what? To be the sex toy of Arthur who is horrible with women and rum? Or being surrounded by men who would want nothing more than for you to lie under them?! And for your dear family in search of you to simply end up with another pirate who is probably is trying the same thing with them?! You might be intelligent enough to fool the next pirate but I'm the one right after it, you Skylla are a prideful idiot and have no right to tell me what my flaws are!".
The waves cashed hard onto the ship when Olivia was done rocking it roughly, Oliver pulled himself together from what Skylla said earlier opening his eyes to truth to confront his sister. " Olivia your wrong! Skylla is completely right about you! All this time I thought it was us, what you kept spooning all these lies into me! 'It's our fault mum and dad were scared out us', 'They don't understand you Ollie, only I do'!" Olivia turned to him looking more disturbed than he ever saw her, "Shut up! It's your fault mum died and dad didn't love me anymore you black sheep! I'll never forgive you!" while they all were talking, the men were talking the gold, supplies and gun powder onto the deck, surrounding and pointing their swords at Arthur and Gilbert. Olivia saw they were ready and smiled, "Well Ollie dear it looks like the time for me to kill you . I should have all those years ago! Now-"
Oliver threw a kitchen knife into Olivia's chest before she was able to get her pistol out, Olivia looked at her brother and froze. His eye color looked like they were swirling into spirals and his face was that of a grimace with a smile, " Dad said to never tell you this but mom wanted to kill you. You were conceived forcefully and she never wanted to have you, and because of that she had injuries that she died from when giving birth to me. And when they saw signs of you being deranged they sent you away with only me trying to stop them. Also dad is my dad and will never be yours...and you never his.".
With the truth out Olivia started to cry breaking into a sobbing fit as she bleeds out. Oliver left her to tend to Skylla, "Are you alright?" Skylla nodded with tears forming in her eyes a little that finally broke. Gilbert and Arthur were trying to think of a way out in this situation, the attempt failed when Oliver lifted Skylla into his arms and turned his attention to them. "What should we do now?" one of the crew asked, "First thing first we are going to follow as planned. Arthur, unlike Olivia I didn't decide to kill you just because I can. It's because Skylla is too good for you. Treating this sweet poppet as scum off the earth.. And you Gilbert for bringing her to this leach while drunk along with the two pirates Jeremy and Fred."
The mutinous crew shoved the two out into the circle of blades, Oliver looked over Skylla almost loving checking if she is hurt. She has lost consciousness as the wind howls and waves pick up drastically by unknown reasons. "We better go, Wanderer go into Olivia's pocket and grab a strange device." The scruffy looking pirate with a bandana nodded and searched her coat to find a remote-like item. "Thank you.", Arthur was trying to get everything straight into his head. How he didn't see this mutiny coming too late or why is he dreading the burning of this old and rickety ship he stole.
Or why was it that having Skylla in Oliver's hands made him so angry he wants to fight tooth and nail for her. The answers came to him after an airship landed into the water with all his gold and food being loaded in, Oliver using a gun to light a barrel with crew and Skylla being lifted off away to parts unknown leaving him only with a burning delight and a burning delight to stomp on Oliver's skull. The answer was simple, he loves her and was too stupid to realize it sooner.
