⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵...(Tour of "High Island")...Continued...
[Last time...]
Now Galligan showed real concern and took a hold of Lupega’s arm,
“I think you better let me show you the way mate.” He said quietly as he gave a disconcerted glance to Bleujay and then led Lupega towards the galley stairs…
“Alright! Back to work all of you and show your best manners!” Bleujay ordered as she stepped away from the rail and stood in dismay at what she had just witnessed…°°° ’Brine Fatigue is real...for everyone…” °°° She thought to herself.

[On the Silverton…]
“I cannot figure it Sairrr…very peculiar…”
“Did he recognize ye?”
“Not at all. Didn’t recognize anyone…”
“Hmmm, an' whit diz Hack say?”
“He’s just examining him now.”
“An’ th’ hen?”
“Normal, or seems so. Scared…but Commander Kerrisl is checking her out.”
“Blimey… thes isnae a bludy toor ship!”
“Aye, strange…”
“Alright… keeps me informed as suin as Hack has gart his evaluations.”
“Aye Sairrr.”
With that, Commander Galligan quietly closed the great cabin’s door and left.
[Commander Kerrislravenhill’s cabin…]
“Please, take a seat…” Kerrisl said as she sat in a chair opposite the young lady…”You speak English?”
The young woman nods…
“What’s your name Lass?”
Nervously folding her hands, she speaks softly…”Leyla Yilmaz.”
“Leyla, Lupega is a fine officer and I can tell ya that th' crew respects ye for savin' his life. Ahh will dae likewise. If anyone one of th' crew disrespects yea in any way, I'll stand by ye as long as you're aboard the Silverton."
Leyla nodded as she clasped her fingers tightly…
“What were you doing at the river?”
“We live there…”
“We?”
“My husband and I….we did…”
“Your husband isn’t with you?”
“No…captured…by the Seneca… over a year ago, on a hunting trip.”
Kerrislravenhill’s eyes grew wide and her heart began to pound…
[Sick bay…]
Standing Officer Lupega sat quietly on the examination bench as Hack walked in the room and lit a cigarette…
“Hello Sairrr, I'm happy to have arrived on the ship!”
Hack took a long drag on his cigarette and let out a large plume of smoke that quickly filled the small room as he leaned against the table across from him and laid steady eyes on him.
“Wow, you inspire respect Sairrr!”
Hack didn’t respond immediately as he picked a speck of tobacco off his tongue and took another drag on his cigarette….
“Ye ken mah nam son?”
“Umm, no… but as football addicts say, I hit the post- Hahaha! We'll see if I have better aim next time…”
“Bludy Nora!” Hack exclaimed in frustration as he turned around and grabbed a small mallet, “Git yer hans aff yer knees Laddie …”
Lupega moved his arms and put his hands flat on the bench on each side of him. His face showed uncertainty as Hack quickly rapped his right knee hard with the mallet.
“Hmmm, nerves ur guid. Swatch haur Laddie, follaw mah finger …” Hack instructed as he held up one finger and moved it right to left in front of Lupega’s face…”Yak sight is guid…”
Then Hack sat down and took another drag on his cigarette, exhaling a large blue cloud towards the examination bench which sent Lupega into a brief coughing fit...
“What’s th' nam o’ thes ship Laddie?”
Lupega wrinkled his brow…”I’m certainly… not certain Sairrr.”
“Hmmm…. an' who’s uir Keptin?”
Again, Lupega drew a blank and this time just shrugged.
“Yoo're currently experiencin' a catastrophic neural nit desynchronization, resultin' in fragmented memory sectors an' compromised cognitiff ootput streams…” Hack said matter of factly as he took another drag on his cigarette.
“A what?”
“Ne’erminds…bide haur till Ahh comes back...” Hack replied briefly as he ground the cigarette butt out on the floor boards with the toe of his boot and walked out of the room.
°°° ’Don't leave me alone with this man!’ °°° Lupega thought to himself anxiously.
