Mercury Poisoning!
Jude blushed as he looked at her. "Yeah, I was a king to be actually, but I decided that I didn't want anything to do with being a king.. I mean my family was never exactly graceful or decent. They treated their subjects like trash and I couldn't stand it. I mean sure I could have stayed and over taken the thrown, and completely redone the whole kingdom. But I couldn't wait that long. I couldn't wait for my father to croke just so I could be a better king. Besides half of our subjects hate my family, and I doubt they'd listen. That's why when I stowed away on a ship, I was saved by a man, the rest wanted to kill me for the things my father had done. It's a shame you can't meet him, he died after my 3rd year on the boat." he said as he guided her into the dining room, sitting in a chair he picked up a dart and threw it at the map.

"Your- You're of royalty aren't you. It's very rare you hear of a family that isn't royal that had enough Rubies to have a servant of any kind. What kingdom are you from?" he asked. "I myself am from, Elnoria." he said as he sat down, pouring them both a glass of water. "IT's awful that your parents treated you like that, as if you were nothing.. I'm very sorry they did that to you..I can't stand the thought of abusing a women, a man who deserves it on the other hand, is a different subject." he said as he folded his hands around his drink.

"Stay.. Here on the ship..? I'd say it's to dangerous but you seem to know.. SOME things about being a pirate.. But honestly I don't know if you'd like to stay, we're heading out to the Bermuda Triangle.. and you could die.. Well.. We all could.." he said his voice trailing off, his eyes glued to the wood pattern in the table now. "I don't know you well, but I don't think I could turn around and take your life and lay it in my hands. These men are willing to die at all costs, with the hopes that if they find money, jewels, anything of value they can support a family of their own. You.. How old are you?" he asked looking down at her. "You're young..You could do such great things.." he whispered.
"Everyone else is either asleep or having sex. I've been watching cable television and eating jello."
