Chapter 60

With a final creaking bellow our s.h.i.+p could be seen coming into the dockyard of the island of Las camp, the b.a.s.t.a.r.dized 'Not Marine' logo along with the sc.r.a.pes and crack lines on the side of the wooden lunk that one called a s.h.i.+p did little to hide the gargantuan va.s.sal from the eyes of the people on the docks, who had just begun to file back into the town, accompanied by the final orange lights of the dying sunlight .
"Captain, why is it that almost every time we land on an island its either night or late evening?" the voice of the pudgy Sorren rang out as he ate the last of our rations that remained dry after the chaotic upheaval of the last twenty four hours .
"I don't know brat, fate?" I called out cheerily albeit with a tired strain in my voice that seemed to echo in the minds of all those that heard me .
I was so tired I was sure that if one gave me a berri for every anomaly in my mental state I could probably redeem Whitebeard's head with it .
Fawkes was no better, as he stood behind me, I could not help but notice the faint red hue that torched his face in an unhealthy red and the faint spasming of the muscles in his leg . He was tired, and I was sure now that he was coming down with something, with a quick glance at his figure and another at the quivering form of the crew's doctor, I took a deep breath .

"It seems we've been jumping islands a lot and haven't really been given a chance to relax ever since the start of this adventure, so captain's orders, sh.o.r.e leave for two weeks!" I called out behind me before taking a deep breath and beckoning the small crew into my congested cabin .
"Ok here is the deal, while we're on this island, I want Fawkes to focus on gathering resources and supplies, Sorren, I want you to make a list of all the medical supplies that we would need and accompany Fawkes on his trips to get it . Terrick I want you to begin taking up side ch.o.r.es on the side to help fatten our coffers, we barely have enough to last us through the week at this point .
Do what you must to give us a boost, two things, don't overdo it, and follow your moral compa.s.s .

I on the other hand shall begin building myself an actual information network . We could have hijacked the a.s.shole flamingos but we were too rattled at that point . By now we probably already lost the chance to take any advantage of that . " I said as I gauged the reaction of the room .
Fawkes and Sorren nodded, a rare sign of seriousness appearing on the latter's face, clearly his medical inability to help with Fawkes' situation had been weighing on his conscience . I had made sure to skew the pairings slightly in their favor, with Fawkes being a cook, getting supplies and resources would be a cakewalk for him and he wouldn't have to strain himself too much .
Sorren on the other hand, would be given a much needed motivation booster, for once on the journey not as a combat a.s.set but as the doctor he had promised himself to be . There could be no better motivation for an individual then feeling like they were worth something in the thing they loved .
Terrick would have it easy, what with his previous profession and his new found sense of freedom that allowed him to have a sense of liberation that he had never felt before . It would be better if he got used to this new level of agency as quickly as possible .
Angella on the other hand had received the most unimportant job so far, and that had been for an important reason, to me she seemed too characterless, like a machine or a puppet, and I refused to believe that anyone who had been through slavery, for however short of a period would be able to maintain that level of air headedness .

For that I had given her an opportunity, both to finally begin to open up and for her to display loyalty, or some kind of emotion . I wanted to know, I wanted to know what was the enigma that was Angella . Was she just as stupid as she seemed or was she more sinister?

With a dull sigh and a wounded expression Sorren trudged out from the male dorm into the moonlit pavilion that was the deck of the s.h.i.+p . His hands rubbed against his thin trousers before resting on the rail of the s.h.i.+p .
He looked at the moon, a sad smile much older than he was on his mouth as he looked at the looming full white orb in the sky . "Mother the moon is just as you used to tell me, a round ball of hopes and dreams that s.h.i.+nes down on those that hope . . it looks beautiful .
Mother do you know, after I met the captain, my life has become very exciting, as you used to say 'A healthy body and a healthy mind keep the happiness inside . ' I am happy now mother, but you are not . Where are you mother, where? Do you hate Sorren? is that why you had to go?
I became a doctor just like you asked me too, I wish you were here to see it! I can treat people now, I can help people like you did! Mother smile at Sorren one last time please?" he called out softly into the night sky .
Unknowingly his hands had become pale as they clung to the steel railings of the s.h.i.+p with a vigor . Scenes of blood and tears once again filled Sorren's mind as he gritted his teeth .
'No more! I will heal all those I can, so no one can feel the way I did . Captain has a dream other than revenge, so shall I! My dream is just to protect, protect my crew at all costs, and save those that I can without causing anymore sadness! I shall one day become an person whose very existence shall guarantee that no one on his side dies!" he echoed as he walked back in to the dorm .
Unknowingly and unheard, a soft sigh rang through the s.h.i.+p as a silhouette observed the boy's face…
