"What are you doing on this ship? This is not the boat I've hired for this job. This.. this is certainly not the fastest and most capable captain Silver Oak has!" She looks around but suddenly the activity on the docks had ceased and many of the ships were setting sail or in the process of very quickly.

A loud voice from inside the captain. "One of ye scallywags bring in a bukit and mop! 'Ey Gener'al I got our headin and it's potent!"

Ika gave Kaitain the oddest look and then sighed heavily. "I don't want to know."

"I-I thought you were mad about that incident with all that gelatin and er..." He paused for a few seconds, the gears in his head, which had rusted from all the salt in the air, made one final click forward, "Wait... if this isn't the ship you wanted me take... why does he have your letter?"

"That's something I'd like to know myself. Will you tell the ... good.... captain to step down and have a word with me?" She looked around at the crates that were lined up to be loaded onto the ship and took a seat on one to wait.

"Captain!" Kai said with an air of authority in the pressence of the queen, "Please step before the queen, that she may ask you a question!" He paused for a moment, "And stop spinning!"

"Sir, how did you get the letter I wrote? I know the man whom I asked to have it delivered to was not you."

Well it knoked 'em for a loop an right inta two more men carry'n a crate 'n dey dropped it on da poor man. But good news I found da letter an accepted yer request." He bows and suddenly looks ill. "I dun thin I should have spun for too long." He looks like he will be sick again.

"You... you killed the...." She looked faint and put a hand to her head. "....That may be what happened but I cannot allow you to captain the ship holding Silver Oak's Elite men. There must be another...." She looked around at the now empty port. "... or not... then... I guess... we have no choice."

A voice from behind them suddenly screamed. "WHAT!?" Kai's voice was enough to break the bottle of rum that the captain was still holding. He had already vacated the boat as soon as he found about this mistake, and wasn't quite listening til that last part. After a few seconds, he attempted to regain his composure, "You can't be serious, Ika" He stared directly over to her.

"I know.. I know, Kaitain but he's the only captain here now and looks like the only who is willing to carry out my request. Think of the people of Silver Oak, kaitain. They are counting on you and besides, I know this vessel is sea worthy, it was a gift to this captain from the King and I."

There was a moment of silence, another click could be heard from Kai's head. "You gave him this piece of..." He held his tongue for a moment, looked at the ship, at the captain, and then at the queen, then whispered, "did you hate him that much...?"

She got to her feet and walked over to Kaitain to whisper a response. "Lets just say that the captain here does not ask for much when we offered to buy his silence over a certain... matter. He wanted a new ship therefore we provided one. Looking at it now, the name he picked suits it well."

"And you want us to fight pirates in that!?" He hissed quietly, "no offense your majesty, but I'd rather walk..." He stared over at the captain, and gave a sarcastic smile, which he felt would go over the drunk captain's head. "By the way, what could this idiot possibly have seen to need to be bought off?" He whispered to Ika.

"Never mind what he saw, Kai." She frowned in memory of what the Captain had seen.. or more precisely had been involved in. "I understand your fear of fighting in this ship which brings me to a solution." She turns to face the drunk captain.
"Since the former captain I requested is now...... unable to fulfill my request.. then why let his fine ship go to waste? You will sail that ship.. " points at the end of the docks to the only other docked ship worthy of Pirate battle.
"It is the best ship we can build, captain." She gave Kaitain a look as to ask if he's satisfied now.

His eyes met Ika's and held there, his expression basically said he was indeed not satisfied with the arrangement. He held his gaze for what felt like hours, then turned away, back to the ship, back to the captain, to Ika, to the captain, to the ship, to the captain again, and finally back on Ika. "Does it have to be called the 'Drunken Munkey?'" He sighed in surrender.

Ika sighed again and started to head back towards the palace. "That's between you and the Captain, Kai but.. honestly... does the name REALLY matter? As long as the job gets done and the people are safe then all is well." She motions for her guard to escort her back to the palace.

"I suppose you are right... for the good of the people..." He sighed, and began making his way towards the much nicer ship. "this is going to be one hell of an adventure alright..." He said, putting extra emphasis on the word "hell."
