Chapter 23 Star Gazing

Lucian and I remained crouched in our positions on a rooftop of one of the storage sheds at The Saint Marine port.

We watched as men were unloading wooden boxes from the only ship standing in the harbour. It was more of a battle ship than a normal one with its several gun ports on both sides.

My eyes went to the very tip of the ship and I saw the name聽'The Jolly Roger' carved onto it in bold, italic font.

The Jolly Roger is the name the marines would use to call a pirate flag with.

"Do you think that those are the weapons inside those boxes?" I heard Lucian ask in a low voice next to me.

"Surely," came my simple reply as I continued watching.

"Do you have the camera ready?" I asked Lucian after a couple of minutes.

"Yup." He replied, popping the 'p' as he patted the camera that he had handing from his neck.

"Rose." I heard Hugh call. He was careful not to use my real name since Freya was sitting right next to him and Lucian could hear him clearly from his earpiece.
