A/N : Harmony was born on the 6th of June 1836.She is the daughter of Pirate Captain Bernie Flint. Harmony’s mother was a prostitute and Flint got her pregnant while being on land very briefly.After finding out that the prostitute had gotten pregnant and had since given birth,Flint traveled back to find her.He found the woman with a two year old daughter called Harmony.He took both his daughter and her mother onto his ship and sailed to an island.Once on the island he killed the mother and buried her on the exact same location his treasure would later be buried.He took Harmony back to London and abandoned her there.She was found by the frog captain Abraham Smollett who took her in and raised her as his own.He called her Harmony since she had a musical harmony pendant on her.
Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins were standing at the front of the ship while it sailed over the great ocean at around 11 pm.It was dark but not very cold.Jim had keenly volunteered to help out in the kitchen earlier and Long John thought it was strange.
"You know Jim,Long John’s been doing some thinking.Why did you volunteer to work in the kitchen so quickly?" Long John asked.
Jim didn’t say anything so Long John looked at him and continued:
"Now I know it’s not because you got tired of your other chores cause you still have to do those and I know that no matter how much you like me you wouldn’t take on extra chores for me,so all that leaves is…Harmony"
Jim cringed a little bit when hearing her name.Long John tilted his head and looked Jim in the eyes,he saw a deep,boyish and painful love for Harmony.
"Do you perhaps have a little crush on Harmony?" Long John asked.
Jim blushed and looked away.Long John laughed and said:
"I think I hit the jackpot on that one"
"I guess it wasn’t that hard to tell" Jim said quietly.
Long John didn’t say anything and allowed Jim to think about it for a moment.
"She’s so beautiful" Jim said.
"That she is,lad,that she is" Long John agreed.
"She’s funny,strong,caring,kind,understanding…"
Jim cringed again as he thought about her.
"What’s the matter lad?" Long John asked.
"I love her so much and I know that she’ll never love me as anything other than a friend and it’s just not fair" Jim said.
Long John placed his hand on his shoulder.
"Sometimes when I see her working in the kitchen I look at her eyes and her smile and then I love her so much that it hurts" Jim said softly.
There was a short pause.
"Why do you think she’ll never love you as anything other than a friend?" Long John asked.
"Because we’re two worlds apart.I worked at a taverne as a servant and from what I can gather she’s spent her entire life on ships sailing for adventure" Jim said sadly.
"Opposites do attract you know?!" Long John said softly.
"They do?" Jim asked,his eyes glowing.
"Oh yes.As long as you never give up hope" Long John said with a smile.
Jim’s face started to glow and he smiled.Long John smiled as well and said :
"So have you ever thought of telling her how you feel?"
"NO,not in a million years and I don’t want you to tell her either,promise you wont tell her Long John,promise me" Jim said getting very upset.
"Alright lad,I promise I wont tell her" Long John said soothingly.
"Thank you" Jim said,calming down.
Long John laughed and Jim laughed with him.Long John tapped Jim on the shoulder.
"You’re welcome,lad,you’re most welcome" Long John said.
There was a short pause until Jim said :
"Long John?"
"Yes?"
"Can you tell me more about Harmony?" Jim asked.
"What do you wanna know?" Long John asked.
"Everything.Where she’s from,where her parents are,how she came to work on this ship.Everything" Jim said.
"I don’t know everything" Long John said with a smile.
"Tell me what you do know" Jim said.
"Let’s see.She’s from London,both her parents are dead,she has worked on ships under the careful guidance of Captain Smollett since he found her wandering the docks of London all by herself when she was 2,15 years ago and her ambition is to become the world’s greatest chef cook" Long John said.
"Wow" Jim said,taking all the information in.
"If you want the whole story I suggest you ask Captain Smollett,he’s the one that found and raised her.Course…if you want the detailed story you’ll have to ask Harmony herself.She knows best" Long John said slyly.
"I could never do that" Jim said.
"Then I advise you to go see Captain Smollett" Long John said.
"I will" Jim said.
They stood on the bow for a while longer,Jim thinking about Harmony and Long John making some sinister and dark plans while smiling.
