Unless I really want to", the girl completed playfully. Handing the tube over to Hans, Elizabeth watched with curiosity as he took it and placed it in the hole he had made. When water started trickling out of it, Elizabeth smiled. "This is brilliant!"<br/><br/>The girl drank a little water, while she listened to Hans. It sounded good that he wanted to make his case about her. She knew that she wouldn't be going anywhere as long as he was around. He was, after all, the closest person she had now. And the crew had become her family.<br/><br/>"I do want to stay here... and I will try not to bring bad luck to the ship", the girl joked. She drank some more water and nodded. "I think I am still too small to be of any real help. But with time, I want to learn. I want to help just like everyone else".<br/><br/>She thought for a few moments. "Do you think I should learn how to care for wounds too? Maybe if I ask nicely, they will teach me".</div>
