Departure from the pirate island

It's the last morning on pirate island.
Some crew members are still entering the ship while the final preperations for departure are being made.
When even the last one is on board, we set off.

I look for a nice place on the ship, where I have a good view on the pirate island.
I watch the island getting smaller and smaller.
Soon it disappears from sight completely and the wind of the open sea starts to blow around my body.

When standing on deck looking back to the island, I realize Moldero suddenly standing next to me.
I'm really surprised and I'm getting nervous. He's the strong captain after all.
But I try to keep calm and just keep watching the ocean.

You're very ambitious recenlty. Don't think, I missed that.
You have earned yourself a reward.

He shows me a blanket. He must hide something below.
Soon he removes the blanket and some kind of sword is revealed.

I bought a new saber, specificially made for you.
It should fit your size and your fighting style. I hope, you like it.

He gives me the saber and I admire it.
I hate him, since he's the one responsible for the abduction of boys from small villages.
But getting such a gift from him means a lot to me.
I hoped, I would be able to betray him when I was strong enough. But now I will feel bad for doing that.

By the way, I managed to get something else for you.
Follow me!

I follow him to some small room.

Your own room! What do you think?

It even has a window.

Really?
I don't know what to say.
That's... really nice!
Thanks a lot!

I'm not sure if it's appropriate to hug him, but I rather don't.

Enjoy your privacy here. I'm expecting a lot of you.

Then he leaves.

He expects something from me? Even a lot?
I get a bad feeling. I'll always be under some pressure from now on.
But for now I just rest in my new room for a while.
I guess I don't have to do anything different to satisfy Moldero.
If I just keep doing what I already do, that should be enough.

After a while his daughter Penina just enters my room without even knocking.
She's getting annoying.

Hey, you!
I've got a little reward for you for being such a good fighter.
Do you want it?

What do you want from me after what you did yesterday?

Yesterday? I don't remember anything.

So you were just drunk?

I think so. What did I do?

Nevermind. But aren't you still envious because of my skill?

Hey, I never said, I was envious. Did I come across as envious?

I just look at her. She should know, how obvious this was.

So my father wanted us to get along, and I want to show it to you.

Show me what?

It'll be a surprise. Just close your eyes.

I start to anxious when looking at her closely.
Her rather short, brown, not very even hair, her slightly dark skin and how skimpy her clothes cling to her curvy body.
Is it just because she is a girl?
However, she doesn't have any weapons with her, so I decide to trust her for now.

When my eyes are closed, I feel her hands at my pants. I'm afraid she has similar plans as Felina.
I still don't know Penina properly. And being older than me, she kind of scares me.
But now we're in private, so even if she did something weird, I wouldn't resist this time.

Then she suddenly lifts me up by my butt so that our faces are at the level.
She hugs me and then gently presses her lips against mine.

So it's just a kiss.

It's a kiss?

A kiss!

Then she slowly pushes her tongue through our touching lips into my mouth. I almost want to pull my head away. But I don't.
It's an interesting feeling and I don't know when I'm able to experience this again. So instead I try to join in a little and move my tongue around as well.

After a few seconds she stops and puts me back in my bed.
When I open my eyes again, she already left the room, walking away as if nothing had happened.
I keep lying in my bad for a while, getting tiren while I think about that.
Just before I fall asleep, I get called for some work.

The next few days there's not much going on. I just try to avoid Penina. I don't know exactly why, but I would find an encounter unpleasant.
Is she my friend or my rival now? Or maybe both?
I hope, we'll reach the next island soon, so it might be easier to hide.

When sitting in my bed, looking out of the window, I see a small island. A white island surrounded by huge ice peaks. That must be our goal.
I'm already excited and immediately go on deck to see it better.
I'm really looking forward to a fun adventure there.
