As they walked to the village, Killian tried to recall the events that may have lead up to his being found passed out on the beach by the beautiful and intriguing Tinkerbell, or Tink as he was calling her in his mind.

He mumbled out loud to himself, "Docked the Jolly Roger, made arrangements to restock the galley with Smee, went to the pub for dinner and a pint or two. But what next?"

Tinkerbell had been listening to Killian mumbling to himself and asked him, "Did you meet anyone new at the pub or run into someone who would want to do you harm?"

He thought about her question. Trying to remember anyone he may have talked to or bumped into either at the pub or after leaving...not that he remembered leaving. After several long minutes if silence, he had to admit defeat and said "no not that I recall."

She said, "Well hopefully someone at the pub or in the village or on your ship knows what happened. Or at least point us in the right direction."

"You're awfully optimistic aren't you?

"I'm a fairy. That's how we are."

They continued walking in silence, both lost in their own thoughts. Killian's thoughts were divided between trying in vain to remember and trying to figure out if it would be wrong to try and pursue this fairy who had come to his rescue.

Tinkerbell's thoughts were torn as well...between her attraction to Killian and her duty as a fairy. All she could hear in her head was Blue telling her and all the other fairies that their responsibility was helping others find their happy endings/true loves, that they were not to fall in love themselves, that a fairies happy ending was in helping others find there's. But Tinkerbell had never really fit in with the other fairies and tended break the rules, lesser rules of course, not a the biggest and most important rule of all, which she seriously wanted to break with Killian. She knew the consequences if she broke that rule...she would be stripped of her powers and be human.

"We're almost to the village," Killian said, startling her out of her thoughts.

"Yes we are. Where do you want to start looking for answers first?" Tinkerbell asked him.

"My crew. Let's head to the port and my ship."

"Sounds good to me."
