Ricky smiled, simple and sweet. "It's a long story, but you asked for it," she paused and began again, "My father was the son of a pirate captain. They were from somewhere near Timbuktu. My mother was British. He met her when they raided a ship she was on... fell in love. He stole her away onto the pirate ship. I was born out of wedlock and my mum-" She stopped and looked back out to the sea. "She died giving birth to me. Poor conditions on the ship led to complications. Anyways, I was born as Ricky Mae Lane. First name for my father, middle and last for my mother. They buried her at sea and I grew up on the ship. The pirates mutinied, though, and killed my father. I was made to leave around four years ago and joined Charlie's crew." She blushed deeply and shook her head. "Sorry, That was more than you asked for."
