Hook looked up and smiled," A pleasure as always Love," The Capitan pulled in his line and got to his feet slowly," and what brings you to my beautiful slice of heaven? Any luck with your mermaid?"
He had a feeling she was back for a reason other than friendly company

The Dark Fairy frowned. Of course the little pustule KNEW that she would never have great luck with the mermaid. The creature would sense such dark magic approaching and slip away into the depths... so far where even Maleficent couldn't get to, no matter what form she took.
She then smiled to herself. "'Beautiful slice of heaven'?" She mimicked. "Strange choice of words for a sea dog anchored to land..." She suddenly reappeared closer to the stream in the blink of an eye. "I see your fishy friend has showed you around the place... though no amount of trust and friendship will convince a mermaid to take you back to civilization. You're HER treasure now. How Ironic for a pirate." She extend her arm again to let the crow take flight after cooing to it affectionately. "Well I see you've made yourself quite comfortable. Although it grieves me to see such content on your smug face, who am I to ruin a man's right to happiness?" She made as if to leave, and then paused. "Well... a Dark Fairy bent on the destruction of other's happiness, I suppose." She cackled to herself at the realization. "...But for you, handsome, I'll make an exception."
She turned as if to leave once more, giving a slight curt wave. "Enjoy your 'beautiful slice of heaven', far from any ship or human, surrounded by endless ocean. For. Eternity."

"Oh come on now Love," Hook made his way up the rocks to catch up with her,"We both know you came here with a pupose- other than to see my sorry hyde be chewed up by whatever godforsaken beasts roam the island," Hook stepped in front of her, but kept his distance," What if I told you I can deliver not only a mermaid, but a Successor to The King of the Sea?"

"Great... a Royal..." the Dark Fairy said, monotone. "As if I don't get my fair share of THOSE on a daily basis." She then looked at him with her hazel eyes, clearly unimpressed. "Her station in the Ocean Kingdom has no value to me. I simply need her to be willing to do something. Something that only a Mermaid can do."
She circled him, much like a predator with its prey before the final strike. "This is where you come in, handsome... with your trusting eyes and silky words. You make her do this certain task... and your beloved ship is restored to you." She finally positioned herself in front of him, her voice deceptively like honey. "You'll be free... to roam as you will once again."

Hook refused to show any sign of being phased by this woman, though she was probably capable of killing him in many horrible, terrifying ways(she nearly had during their first meeting) the truth was and is; She. Needs. Him.
"and what task would that be?" he asked meeting her eyes with bold confidence.

Maleficent grinned. So many princes had given that same, unwavering, bold look that the pirate before her now displayed...
That is, until she sank her razor sharp fangs into their chests in her dragon form. They adorned a drastically different expression as they met their gruesome deaths.
"Down in the most unimaginable depths of the ocean, there dwells a special kind of squid." She used her thumb to wipe off a smudge on the glass orb of her staff. "I need you to convince her to bottle some ink from this rare creature and to bring it to the surface." She huffed at his expression. "What? Not challenging enough for you?"

"Ink....." He grinned, That shouldn't be a problem.... I think I could convince her to get it to you Love, but...." He looked at her," I want your word- I want off this island"

"I promised your beloved ship would be back in your possession, restored to her former glory." The Dark fairy waited a beat for a confirmation. It didn't come. She rolled her eyes. "And I SUPPOSE a crew to man it."
She turned away, about to leave. "And one more thing... if you fail to produce the ink or she becomes aware of your deception and swims away...I will kill you." She said nonchalantly. "And I will enjoy doing so."
Maleficent thrust her staff down into the sand, the orb on top glowing a bright green. "You have three days, Pirate... Three. Days."
And cloud of smoke flared and cleared... leaving no trace of the Dark Fairy.

"Well I guess it wouldn't matter anyway- I'll either die by starvation, or die by the hand of a witch," he grumbled, then turned to head back towards the post

Ariel swam back up to the surface. He did say he would be here and she hoped he was because she looked forward to talking to him.
Oh her father would have a fit if he knew, not only was Hook a human but he was a pirate. He was after all pretty well known around the ocean. As much as merfolk talk about humans, they never said anything of real substance only to tell young mermaids to stay away from them.
Well Ariel never did listen and if it ended up bad.. at least she took a chance and lived her life the way she wanted to.
Hitting the surface she noticed the waves were high tonight but she looked around for the pirate anyway.

"Aiel!" He called form the voice, he had a joyous grin on his face," Ariel!? Where are you?" He laughed as he climbed onto the rock he had been used as a meeting place.

She swam over to him he actually looked happy.. that was unusual she thought.
"Why hello.. I was hoping you'd be here" She told him coming over to the rock he sat on last time they talked.
"How are you doing? Did you find the water?" She inquired he looked pretty well so she figured he had.

Jones nodded," I did, and I can't thank you enough Love" He smiled and knelt down on the rock as he spoke," but even better than that I may have found a way off the island"

Ariel looked up at Hook… how could he have possibly found a way off the Island there were no ways off this Island in fact a lot of people had met there end on this small Island. Not that she would let him die.. but he didn't need to know that at least not yet if she could keep him a bit longer maybe he could tell her more about his aventures. Maybe he even knew someone with the power to make her human? Okay that was probably asking for too much but right now he was her only hope.
“Oh...” She looked at him her eyes sad. .
“How do you plan on doing that?” She asked him she looked down with her face set in a sad expression.

"Well.... you see there's this squid.... it's Ink is suppose carry magical properyies... I think I can use it- there's this old spell I was taught when I was young to help me get out of trouble in these sort of situations... but I never had the means...."
His eyes met hers, there was clearly something wrong,"....If you help.... I can tell you one final story of my world before I go..."
