[Haha, I just think the way you're using the pigeon is so funny. Homing pigeons are trained to return to a specific destination and stay there until their trainer comes to retrieve them. Messenger Hawks were used on battlefields, but pigeons are one-way only.]

One the Navy ship, a black-haired boy with green eyes ducked as a pigeon flew over his head. He untied the scroll from its leg and opened it carefully, recognizing the handwriting as Liza's. He ran to the crew's quarters and found a quill, then searched the ship for an inkpot. When he found one, he went back up to the deck in order to write a reply. He flipped Liza's message over and scrawled in uneven handwriting, "I am no longer who you think I am. If you and I and Alexa and the crew are all lucky, we will never meet again." He rolled up the scroll with only a slight twinge of regret and tossed the pigeon into the air, letting it carry the message back to his old captain. He heard his new captain call out an order from the bow of the ship, so he ran to listen.

Ella looked at Patric. "She has a crew though." She said. She looked at the door, longing for the outside world. She noticed two trays of food. She got up and went to them. She picked them up and handed one to Patric. "Looks like she doesnt want to kill us." She said, eating a kob of corn.

((It's a special pigeon it never got the memo that it was supposed to stay put haha))

Liza picked up the pigeon when it returned. She untied the message and read Milos quickly written message. "What did Alexa do?" she said to herself. "Milo, I know you might not get this message or might totally ignore it, but what ever trouble you are in I will come get you out of it. Alexa needs to be put in her place. I don't know the full extent of what she has done, but it goes against the pirate brother/sisterhood." she wrote back on a new sheet. She sent the pigeon on its way knowing Milo might not even read the message.

[lol, nice.]

Milo flapped a hand angrily at the pigeon when it came down by his head again, squawking loudly. His captain and the members of the crew turned to stare, so he quickly caught it and clamped the thing's beak shut with one hand. "Milo Chance," said the Officer in a clipped voice, "What is that?" Milo looked sheepish, grinding the toe of one of his new black shoes into the deck. "Messenger pigeon, sir," he said, and the Officer nodded. "Take care of it, soldier, and don't let me see that thing again. Navy members are to have no contact with the mainland while on the Hunt. This is pirates we're after, and there will be no distractions." Milo nodded, relieved, and flitted over to the railing in order to read Liza's message. He wanted to find her and shake her by the shoulders, to warn all of them that his ship was after the Maiden, but didn't dare, in case the message was intercepted. He didn't want to hang for being a spy. So instead he wrote, "DON'T. I can handle my situation myself. Punish Alexa, but do not try to find me. Like I said, if we're lucky we will never see each other again. This will be the last you hear from me." He was about to send the pigeon on its way, but then quickly scrawled in the bottom left-hand corner, "I love you." He tore the corner off and flipped it over, writing, "for Ella" on the other side. Then he tied the scrap to the pigeon along with the actual letter. He hoped it wouldn't fall off as the pigeon flew. He turned and rejoined the ranks, not seeing the tiny scrap of paper flutter off of the original note and plummet into the ocean.

Ella looked at Patric. "She has a crew though." She said. She looked at the door, longing for the outside world. She noticed two trays of food. She got up and went to them. She picked them up and handed one to Patric. "Looks like she doesnt want to kill us." She said, eating a kob of corn.

((I wish Ella would have gotten the note... LOL))

[RoguesAreWe]

Liza turned when the rustling of feathers sounded in the window. She took the note off of the bird. She swore to herself she would punish Alexa for what ever she had done. Liza looked at Ingo and Lottie, "Ok lets go," she said as she walked out the door. The Pigeon followed Liza as well. Liza sent a note to Alexa "Dock now I'm returning to the ship. I fear something awful is going to happen. I don't care if there isn't enough supplies, this is of the most importance."

[SpreadingDread]

Alexa took the pigeon. "I dont plan on dying because you want to talk to me." She wrote. She sent it to Liza. There were no ports any where near here, and she couldnt turn back. Unless she didnt give Patric and Ella food for a few days.

[RoguesAreWe]

Liza got the pigeon. "There was plenty of food that would last at least six months when I left. Unless you have been feeding it to the fishes then there is plenty of supplies. Fine whatever, what direction are you heading, we will try to catch The Maiden." she wrote back.

[SpreadingDread]

"South." Alexa wrote simply. She kept going at the same speed.

[RoguesAreWe]

Liza got to her small ship. "Ok Lottie, Ingo I know it's a small ship but it will get us to The Maiden fast. The crew quarters are down below deck, they arn't very large." Liza untied the small ship from the dock and pulled out. When they were a fair distance away from port she put up a skull and cross bones. She started heading south at full speed Hoping that they could catch The Maiden before the storm did.
