Harmony was cleaning the outside of the Captain’s cabin,she was being helped by Rizzo and Gonzo.It had only been a day after it was discovered that mr Arrow had fallen overboard and they were all feeling a bit gloomy.
"Hey Harmony,does this look clean to you?" Gonzo asked.
Harmony looked at the spot Gonzo had been cleaning and smiled.
"It looks perfectly clean" Harmony said.
"Well,what about my spot?" Rizzo asked.
Harmony looked at the spot Rizzo had been cleaning and frowned.
"Could I see your cloth,Rizzo?" Harmony asked.
"Sure" Rizzo said,giving her the cloth.
Harmony sighed when she saw black spots on the cloth.
"Rizzo,this cloth is filthy,you can’t clean anything with this" Harmony said.
"You’re the one that gave me the rag" Rizzo argued.
"It wasn’t this dirty when I gave it to you" Harmony retorted.
They continued to argue until finally Rizzo agreed to get a new rag and start over.

Later that day Harmony was cleaning the deck while trying her best to ignore the pirates who were staring at her the whole time when suddenly Jim,Gonzo and Rizzo came running past her just as someone yelled that they were approaching the island they had been sailing for.They ran to Captain Smollett who was handing out orders and whispered something to him.Harmony stopped working and paid attention to what was said.
"Mr Silver" Captain Smollett said.
"Yes sir?" Long John asked.
"Get the crew into one of the lifeboat’s and row to the island,we need water and provisions"
"Aye,aye sir" Long John immediately said.
"Jim,Harmony meet me in my cabin right away" Captain Smollett said.
"Yes sir" Jim and Harmony both said at the same time making them look at eachother and blush.
Long John Silver and the crew were getting ready to board the lifeboat.
"Hey boss,you said we were going to take Jim and Harmony with us" Calico Jerry said.
"We will,I’ll take care of Jim,as for Harmony…" Long John stopped to whisper something in Calico Jerry’s ear and Calico Jerry nodded.
When Jim and Harmony made their way to the captain’s cabin Long John called out to Jim and Jim walked to him.Harmony thought about waiting for him but decided against it so she walked on.She turned around when she heard Jim yelp and saw him getting pulled into the lifeboat.She wanted to call out for help but she was pushed hard by someone and found herself falling overboard.

"We’re going to let Silver and his men row to the island and then we’ll leave,we’ll come back for them in about a year or so,when they’ve learned their lesson" Captain Smollett said in the cabin.
"Oh,I understand now.That’s a great plan" dr Livesley said.
"Yeah,a great plan,except for two things" Rizzo said.
"What’s that,Rizzo?" Gonzo asked.
"The pirates have Jim and they threw Harmony overboard" Rizzo said.
"You’ve gotta be joking" Gonzo cried as he ran to the window to have a look.
When Captain Smollett realized that he was telling the truth he became very worried.

Harmony landed hard in the cold water.She spluttered and gasped for air as she resurfaced and began to swim to shore.Unfortunately this was exactly what Long John was hoping for.She made it to the island and crawled onto the land and went to get up when suddenly the tip of a sword scraped her throat.She slowly looked up to find Long John Silver looming over her,the other pirates were behind him holding on to Jim.
"Your gut feeling about me was correct,dear sweet Harmony,such a pity you ignored it" Long John said.
The pirates and Long John laughed and Harmony was forced to her feet by Long John’s sword.
"Leave her alone Silver" Jim spat out.
"Awww,isn’t that cute?.Jim Hawkins has a little crush on pretty Harmony" Long John mocked.
The pirates laughed again and Long John gestured for Blackeyed Pea to grab Harmony and tie her up.

After finding out that Harmony had swam to shore,Captain Smollett had decided that he,Rizzo and Gonzo would go to save Jim and Harmony.They climbed into one of the lifeboats and rowed away only to leave the ship and dr Livesley,Beaker and Squire Trelawny in the hands of the remaining pirates.
