Chapter 21

I took his hand and stood up, we turned and walked into the darkness. The party behind us seemed to just continue. As we got near my hut, the soft glow from inside lit the way. Once inside I saw it had been decorated with flowers and small lamps. On the table was a full decanter of dark brown liquor. Pakurr led me to the table and poured almost two full glasses of the liquid. If this was the fertility drink, I was about to drink a good eight ounces in one shot. Pakurr handed one of the tumblers.

We just touched glasses and then we both downed the liquid. It had a slight liquorish flavor, but thoroughly quenched my thirst.

We set our glasses down and then came together in a long kiss. As we kissed I loosened his sarong and he loosened mine. Both dropped as we parted. He led me to the pallet and after lifting the netting stood together in the center of the pad. We kissed again in a long kiss. I could feel his hard cock pushing into my stomach. I was about to drop down to suck it when he dropped to his knees and fed my cock into his mouth. He grabbed my legs and pulled me deep into his throat. He gagged several times before he slowly slid it out. He then pulled me back on him. It continued for several minutes until I knew I was getting close. Two things were happening at once now. I was very close to blowing into his mouth and the pain in my bladder suddenly became very acute. I thought I was going to burst. My full bladder over road everything else and I forced it out. Pakurr just swallowed as I drained. The relief was so great that my balls fired almost as soon as I finished pissing. Pakurr just murmured in, in enjoyment. After blowing he sat back on his legs.

"Ed you taste so wonderful love I could live on just what you have given me."

I knelt and gently pushed him back onto his back. I slipped his hard cock into my mouth. He must have been feeling the same as I had, because as soon as I had his cock buried in my throat I tasted the salty/acidic taste of his urine filling my mouth and throat. I just swallowed as fast as it came. Even as he stopped I continued to suck on his very smooth cock. It did not take too long before I was rewarded as my mouth and throat were filled with his salty nectar. As we laid down beside each other.

"Ed the liquor is a, a, I'm not sure what you call it. It makes all the liquid you have drank in a while to drain quickly. It also neutralizes the fertility drink. Between us we will never need anything to make us love each other more."

"No love, I need nothing to make you love me more."

We were both soft and even as I wanted now to go back down and enjoy the smooth cock once more, he rolled to his knees and pulled me up.

"Come love."

He lifted the netting and helped me to my feet. He led us out the back door and down the path to the hot spring. Even in the total darkness he found the way easy. Three very small lamps lit the edges of the hot spring. We both entered the hot spring and then gently washed each other. We kissed almost continuously in the pool. It was getting me very aroused and I could tell it was doing the same thing to him. Even as I reached for his very stiff spike he stepped away.

"Not yet love. It is not the place."

He led me from the pool, but instead of heading back to the hut, he turned and led me to another set of steps. They seemed to glow in the moonlight. I am not sure how far or how high we climbed those steps. All I knew was the glowing form ahead of me urged me onward. If he had stopped and turned to me, I knew nothing on earth could have stopped me from making love to right there. WE finally stepped out onto a clear area, covered in soft moss. To the north you could see the city of Palikir. To the south another small city, but the moon was unbelievable. It seemed to fill the sky. So huge I thought you could reach out and touch it.

"Now love, take me here, with all the gods watching."

I needed no second invitation. I gently laid him down on the soft moss. I kissed him with passion far beyond anything I had felt for a single man before. As I ran my tongue down to his hard chest and very hard and pointed tits, he squirmed under my touch. His tits were like spear points. As I bit and sucked his tits, he seemed to get even more frenzied. I kissed my way down to his streaming cock. Even as I licked the Precum from his head, his first shot coated my face. I slipped my mouth over his cock. I lost count as his cock seemed to continue to shoot his very salty cumm into my mouth. It was like he had saved every drop just for me. Before I even lifted off his smooth cock he had pulled his legs back.

"Please love, I need you now before the moon sets." He screamed.

Without even first rimming that very enticing rose of his entrance, I brought my streaming cock up and pushed inside his searing hot canal. Searing hot would be an understatement. It felt like I had shoved my cock into a bed of red hot coals. Yet it felt so good, I could not stop. Even as he screamed, `faster, harder,' he still wreathed under me. Even as I wanted to hold it within him, something else told me to fuck this man for all I'm worth. Even as I wanted to start slow, something inside forced me to pull back quick and drive back in side him hard. Again, again, again, my balls were screaming for release as I pounded the cauldron of his canal. Why I could go on was beyond me, sure that my now very aching balls wanted to unload a tidal wave. I heard him scream NOW'. Pushing in as far as I could my aching balls unleashed a torrent of my hot sperm into his colon. As I unloaded I dropped exhausted over his body. Almost faint I felt his tongue licking my face clean.

As we laid side by side in the dark.

"The gods are pleased love." He kissed me.

Both drained of all energy, we cuddled together and slept.

We awoke to the sound of birds in the jungle around us. I felt so at peace now. I looked into the steaming pools of his deep brown eyes. Pakurr was without a doubt the only man I could ever really love so deeply. As he stood to drain his morning load I stopped him.

"Pakurr, I will always drain you each morning, noon or night. Each time you become more and more part of me love."

After I drained him he helped me up and drained me of my morning load. We kissed when we were done and he led me down the very steep steps. I was astounded that we had climbed them in the dark. We stopped at the hot pool and washed each other. Then he led me to our hut. We were barely dressed when my four other lovers came in. Each kissed me passionately and kissed Pakurr the same way. They set down plates of fresh cut fruits and two steaming cups of coffee. Looking at them I saw the love they felt for me and Pakurr.

"Well my four very loving brats, did you all have a good night?"

"Well considering we could not sleep with you love, we found someplace else." Sal said.

They all giggled.

"I'll bet." I laughed.

They boys all sat down and talked as we ate the light breakfast.

They regaled us with their exploits of the last two days. Most times we were in stitches at some of their tales of tail. I watched my other four loves as they talked. They looked at me, but almost always their eyes went back to Pakurr. Pakurr noticed it too.

"Singh, Siam, Simon and Sal, I am sorry I have stolen Ed's heart. I don't know why I love him so much, I just do. But I also love you four as well. All that Ed loves I love too."

Siam, probably the most educated of the four spoke up.

"Pakurr, I think you are misunderstanding what we feel. We love Ed with everything inside us. But Ed loves a lot more than that. He loves other things more than he could possibly love us. We know he loves a small boy that Jake our Captain rescued. We know that boy loves him with more love than we can ever give him. It does not mean we love him any less, it means we just love him that much more. Pakurr we love you as much as we love Ed. We can't change how we feel anymore than you can. All we know is Ed now has someone filling that part of his heart that we could never fill. And I think you now have him in your heart as he does you."

Before he could respond, Simon piped up.

"Besides you don't think your going to have him all to your self do you?"

We all burst out laughing at that, even Pakurr.

Pakurr was about to answer Siam when his Father walked in.

"Good morning my sons."

"Good morning Father." We both answered almost together.

"Pakurr, although you told me you have resigned as my Finance Minister, you have to officially resign in the Capital."

"I know father. I am hoping my love will take us there next."

"Good as done love."

"How long are you planning on staying here Ed?" "A few more days. I want to have a look at this very nice Island paradise you have here."

"Planning on investing here to Ed?"

"No. I don't think so. I am not yet ready to manage what I have already."

"Well if you change your mind. Talk to me, I can get you almost anything here you wish."

I stood up and walked over and took my new Father into my arms.

"Father you have given me more than any man could ever wish for. My one and only true love."

"Thank you Son, but I think you might have to use a stick sometimes to keep him inline."

"Father!" Pakurr said. And we all laughed.

Giou and the boys left.

"I think I need to go for a walk in the sun Love."

We dropped our sarongs and I was almost tempted to start making love to him again. He was so very good looking. We put on shorts and sandals. We walked out hand in hand. Everything from the night before was gone. We walked to the beach and then just sauntered down the beach. No hurry, just relaxed. At almost any point I could have just loved to make mad passionate love to Pakurr. I think that was his mind too. We were stopped in our walk by a sheer wall of volcanic rock. It extended far out into the sea. We sat down. It was very warm and almost as if we thought the same thing we stood and dropped our shorts and walked into the surf. We ended up in a very tight embrace. As we kissed a rogue wave hit us. We ended up sputtering and coughing on the beach. I looked at my love laying beside me.

"I need you inside me Love. I said.

He rolled me onto my back. Kneeled between my legs as I held them back. He entered me with no more lubricant than the salt water surf washing over us. The pain of his entry was overridden by the white hot heat of his shaft filling me. Nothing, nothing I had ever felt before could eclipse what I felt now. It was like my mind could feel every single throb, vein or curve in that cock filling me. As he started very slow, each thrust screamed at me in pain, but it felt so good all I wanted was more and more of him inside. `Faster, harder Love', I screamed.

He continued to drive into my ass, always faster and harder. Still I wanted more, but it felt so good I just laid back and enjoyed. His pace quickened and then he stopped with his cock buried as deep as he could get it. When he came I almost passed out as his hot sperm was almost shot straight into my stomach he came with such force. He collapsed over me and his now spent cock slipped out.

I smothered him with kisses.

We almost passed out as we kissed and finally broke apart.

"God love, you are fantastic." I gasped.

He ran his hand down over my body, as his hand touched my stomach it growled in hunger.

"Well I have something to fill the hole love." He smiled.

We quickly slipped into a 69 position and enjoyed each other again. Finishing with another load of piss. To think that before I had met my young men I would never have even contemplated drinking a mans piss. Now I found it almost as good as the sperm he ejected from his smooth spike. WE were almost ready to sit up when another large wave drenched us. We both stood up sputtering and laughing.

For the next three days Pakurr and Giou, showed me their Island Paradise. Most of the new facilities had been built buy the present administration. They had tapped into the volcano on the island for geo-thermal power. But I think the most innovative thing they had done was hide the waste treatment plant under an 18 hole golf course. Tourism appeared to be the primary industry. To that end the State had built three huge casino's attached to three of the largest hotel. Although the hotels were privately held, the casino's were controlled by the state. That ensured a steady flow of cash into the Islands coffers.

Palikir had first been occupied by the Spanish. That had brought the catholic church. Not that it mattered to much to these very independent people. The Japanese had occupied Palikir in 1939. The allies considered the Island insignificant and had bi-passed it on their trek through the Islands. Out numbered and cut off the Japanese had surrendered only to be slaughtered to a man by the maddened Islanders. Treating them as they had been treated in the almost 6 years of occupation. Giou called a very black blot on the Islands history.

We were sitting next to Sandpiper in his open top Jeep. The small naval port was almost empty, only a couple of small coast guard cutters and pilot boats.

Pakurr and Giou embraced as they said good bye. I gave Giou a good hug as well. We climbed aboard, the lines were let go and Jake eased Sandpiper out of the Port. Once clear of the port Jake kept the speed down as we weaved our way through the fishing boats. I gave Pakurr a tour of his new home away from home. The first comment he made was when Jerry walked by totally nude.

"Pakurr, clothes are optional on Sandpiper when we are at sea. You can wear as little as you wish or walk around nude."

After we got out into open ocean, Jake brought Sandpiper up to 50 knots and we cruised west. He came down to the lounge to help me open the two crates that had been delivered aboard that morning. One contained a very beautifully carved statue of two men in a 69 position. The other 24 bottles of the fine scotch we had been drinking.

"He sure knows your heart Ed." Jake laughed.

That afternoon, Jake also showed both Pakurr and myself how to operate one of the m-60 machine guns. We spent an hour almost learning and even firing the gun.

"Pakurr, we want everyone to know how to help defend Sandpiper." Jake said.

Later in the day we stopped at a small island for the night. Although I thought I might be alone with Pakurr this first night aboard, I was mistaken. Soon after Pakurr and I were in bed we were joined by Singh and Siam. Well it ended up to a four way fuck and suck fest. I know I enjoyed the taste of all three and had at least two of them inside me at one point. Singh and Siam were both gone when we woke up. We had long leisurely shower and then dressed. Pakurr opted for the same very short sarong all the serving boys had worn. Considering hot little it covered I told he might as well be nude.

"Well gives you easy access love." He laughed.

We went up for my usual light breakfast and coffee. I took Pakurr up to the flying bridge. Andy was on the helm, while Jake sort of just relaxed. Jason walked over and gave Pakurr a kiss.

"I never had a chance to welcome you aboard Pakurr."

Jake handed me a message he had received from the coast guard. A large well equipped pirate vessel appeared to be working in the Islands. I knew with the numerous islands and large number of small coasters sailing in these islands they would make easy pickings for a determined raider. I was not worried, Sandpiper could outrun almost anything except maybe helicopters. I just dismissed it.

I took Pakurr into my office and let him look at all the records I had for the Sandpiper Family Corporation. With his experience as the Finance Minister for Pohnpei, he would make a fine administration guy for the Sandpiper finances. He was astounded that I had almost 500 million Euros in credit available. Even with the 180 million loan I had he told me I could build many fine resorts almost anywhere.

"Well I want to make sure the ones I have make money first Love."

The second day was a carbon copy of the first. Light winds and fairly smooth seas. We again stopped at a small island for the night. That night it was Sal and Simon that joined us. Pakurr was astounded that a guy as small as Sal could have such a massive cock. That did not stop him from enjoying it both in his ass and mouth. The morning found all the boys still with us. It was almost comical to who could drain who. Both boys showered and left before Pakurr and I even began to get up. After a nice rinse we dressed for another day.

My crew always had almost everything done almost before I got up to the lounge each morning. All had specific duties. Both Pakurr and I were up on the flying bridge. Jerry was at the helm, with Jake is his usual place lounging in one of the deck chairs. I was just thinking of heading down onto the bow to enjoy the sun.

"Radar Contact. About 12 miles Jake." Jerry said.

Jake got up and looked at the radar screen.

"Looks to be three, no four vessels. One appears to be stopped."

I turned to head off the bridge when I thought I heard thunder.

"Did you hear that Jake? It sounded like thunder." I looked around at the sky, not a cloud in site.

Jake looked at me and I heard it again.

"Not thunder, gunfire." He leaped across the bridge and hit the Alarm switch.

"Eighty knots." He ordered Jerry.

I grabbed the ship to ship phone.

"Cyclone, Cyclone, this is Sandpiper. Do you read me?" I just knew had to be Cyclone.

"Sandpiper, this Cyclone. Where are you?"

"Coming up from astern at eighty knots."

"Ed, I'm totally outgunned here. That fucker to our starboard has a least a three inch gun and he's damn good. The other has only machine guns and RPG's, but he's raising havoc on my deck."

"Hold on James were coming."

"Jake target the port vessel. Lets even the odds a bit."

"Bring us along side at 200 yards. Match her speed as we come along side." He ordered Jerry.

Jesus 200 yards was point blank.

Neither of the attacking vessels even knew we were near. There first inkling was when Jake opened up with our 60mm gun. The first two rounds bracketed the smaller vessel. Even before it could react, Jerry slowed as we came along side. I heard above the bang of the 60mm the staccato burst of a machine gun. I watched as the rounds walked their way right up to the vessel. At point blank range, Jake fired 6 rounds into the small vessel, while the M-60 raked it from stem to stern. It quickly lost way and swerved to starboard.

As soon as we hit the smaller vessel, Cyclone heeled hard to Starboard. So hard I saw the red lead coating of her bottom. At this point I was very glad Jake had been a Royal Navy Officer, he never hesitated as he saw Cyclone turning to starboard.

"Hard to Starboard, increased to ninety knots." He ordered Jerry.

Sandpiper heeled and increased speed radically. I was sure we were going to hit Cyclone, we bearing down on her so fast. Jerry kept her hard over and then spun the small wheel back. I think we cleared Cyclone's stern by only 25 yards. Masked from the main gun of the larger vessel Jake shot to cross the pirates vessels stern. The skipper of the pirate vessel figured it out too late and Jake brought the 60 mm onto his stern. Jake was almost masked by the other vessels stern when Sandpiper lurched like it had been hit by a train. It never slowed.

"I think we just got hit aft." Jake said.

I was off the bridge and down into a lounge in a flash. As I ran onto the aft deck, the first thing I saw was the Rover a burning wreck. The next thing that registered was a prone figure with another of my crew leaning over him screaming. I knelt down by the prone figure and watched as the light faded from Samsun's eyes. Siam turned to me.

"Bring him back Ed. Please bring him back." He cried.

I pulled Siam into my arms.

"I can't Son. I wish I could, but I can't." I cried with him.

AS I held Siam, burning hate started to build inside me. It became almost a physical thing. They had killed one of the people I loved and they were going to pay and pay and pay. I pushed Siam back.

"Cover him son, cover him."

Sandpiper had come almost to a stop barely 100 yards away from the pirate vessel. Attacked from both sides she had surrendered. It did not matter to me. I walked to M-60 machine gun, sighted on the stern of the vessel and pulled the trigger. I walked the rounds almost to her bow before I the belt ran out. As I knelt to grab another belt of ammunition Jake grabbed him from behind.

"It's over Ed. It's over."

"Jake it will never be over until every single one of those murdering bastards are dead."

"Come on Ed." He helped into the lounge and sat me down. Pakurr was beside me with a large glass of scotch in a second. The scotch at least brought me back to my senses.

"What's the butcher bill for this Jake?"

"We have four walking wounded. Jason and Randy were in the engine room when the shell hit us. Jason has a broken nose. Siam, Singh and Aaron have minor shrapnel wounds. Then there is Samsun. He apparently protected the gun crews when the shell hit. The Cyclone has two dead and 14 wounded. No one survived on the coast guard boat. Commander Simpson is aboard the pirate vessel. He has the Captain in custody although he is wounded thanks to you."

"Too bad I didn't kill the cocksucker."

"Help is on the way, but it will be several hours before it arrives. James wants to put into a small island about 6 miles from here. The pirate vessel is still capable of moving so we are going to head there once we have picked up all the survivors."

"NONE, not one I want on Sandpiper." I said.

"Not a problem Ed. They are putting them aboard their own vessel."

After almost two hours we slowly made our way into a small bay of an Island. A medic from Cyclone came aboard and checked our four slightly wounded crew. James came aboard very late.

"Ed, I am never going to be able to thank you enough. Without you and Sandpiper, we were history. That fucker had us totally outgunned. I am very sorry for your loss."

I wasn't very much of mood for talking, but thanked him. I spent all my time by Singh and Siam, checking to make sure they were comfortable. Almost 7 hours after the battle I finally headed down to my Stateroom. I could clean the dried blood from my body, but I would never wash away the look in Samsun's eyes as he died. That would live with me forever. Pakurr and Sal cuddled up close holding me in bed. Every time I looked at my two boys I started to cry. It was a long, nightmare filled night for me. When I awoke in the morning, I almost forgot where I was, I was so tired. Sal and Pakurr, helped me shower and dress. I checked on my four wounded crew as soon as I got to the lounge. All four looked a lot better than they had the night before. Sandpiper appeared to be back to normal. The only reminder of the battle was the smashed wreckage of the Rover on the aft deck. Samsun's body had been placed in a body bag and stowed below. I sat drinking coffee, although I was very tempted to have something stronger.

James came back on board about noon.

Are you okay Ed?"

"I'm fine James."

"WE captured the logs and a shit load of other stuff off the Wan Chou. We were very lucky yesterday. There is apparently another ship just like her."

"Fuck you mean there is another armed raider like that fucker? Where did she come from"

"From what we can tell, Wan Chou and Wan Sing, were both built in China, by the Chinese Navy. Both were built as coastal patrol vessels. How they ended up here is any ones guess. Both ships have two 1000 HP Diesels, with variable pitch props. Both come with a single 76mm main gun and several 20mm and 12.5mm machine guns. The smaller vessel sank before we could board her. The Master, we captured is not Chinese and neither is any of her crew. They are such a mixture of races and they all say they don't speak English, so it is hard even to interrogate them."

"Try hanging a few of the cocksuckers. That would loosen their tongues."

"I wish I could Ed. I really wish I could."

"I know James, International Law etc."

"Now my next problem Ed. The USS Glover and the Italian Frigate Maestrale are coming from Guam. However, they will not be here until tomorrow morning at the earliest. I have three very severely wounded crewman, that might not make until then. Sandpiper could make it to Guam in under 24 hours. I'd Like you to take them and head for Guam. I can't order you too Ed, but I'm hoping you will."

"Of course I will. Will you be okay until the Frigates get here?"

"I think so. All our weapons are intact and I have put a crew on board the Wan Chou to man the 76mm gun. Two coast guard cutters are coming to and should be here today."

"Okay James, lets get those men on board."

I hit the intercom to the bridge.

"Jake, set a course for Guam. We are taking three wounded sailors there. Be ready to move as soon as we have them on board."

"Got it Ed."

"I'll give you one of our sick bay attendants too." James said.

"They will know you are coming Ed. I'll radio them as soon as I am back on board Cyclone. See you in Guam."

Jake maneuvered Sandpiper gently along side Cyclone and the three wounded sailors were transferred along with the med-tech. Soon after that Sandpiper moved out of the small bay. Soon after that we were back up on foils heading on a straight course for Guam. This would be the longest stretch over open Ocean we had ever made. The seas were moderate, but Sandpiper hardly noticed. At 90 knots, Jake estimated 13 hours.

I checked on my four wounded young men. Singh and Siam were both in my Stateroom. Both were playing cards. "How are you doing my loves?"

Siam as soon as I said it was in my arms crying. I just held him. I had no words for what he was feeling. After he settled down a bit.

"What are you going to do with Samsun?"

"Take him home. Take him back to Thailand."

"Thank you love." Siam kissed me.

I kissed and talked briefly with Singh too.

"You boys can sleep here tonight. I want you both close to me."

I went and looked in on Aaron and Jason. Aaron was alone in the Stateroom.

"Where's Jason?"

"He said he couldn't just lay around. I think he went back to the engine room."

"Well you don't have to be alone here. Why don't you go down to my stateroom and stay with Singh and Siam."

I helped him up, gave him a kiss and a light slap on his nice butt as he headed down the passageway to my stateroom. Siam and Singh would keep him company, probably in more ways than one. I went back up, checked with the navy corpsman on his charges, then grabbed a beer and headed for the flying bridge.

Jake and Jerry were on the bridge. Andy was sitting in one of bridge chairs staring straight ahead. I walked over to him and wrapped my arms around him. He started to cry, so I just held him as he let out all the grief he was feeling.

"Your going to take him home Ed?"

"Yes, Andy, that's a promise."

"Good. That's where he told me he wanted to go if anything ever happened to him."

"Now, I had better go start dinner." He said.

"Andy, we can get someone else tonight."

"No Ed, I need to be working."

"Okay love." I kissed him on the cheek.

After Andy had left the bridge I sat down to think. Jake walked over to me.

"How are you holding up Ed?"

"I'm fine Jake. Thanks."

"Ed, we were very lucky. If the Starboard Machine gun had still been manned, we could have lost two more. Aaron and Jimmy had moved over to the Port gun when we rounded the stern of the pirate ship. Samsun's body shielded all four from the worst of the blast."

"Thank the Gods for that. I know I could not have handled it if anymore had died."

"Maybe, everyone is right Ed. Maybe God really is watching over Sandpiper and her Saint."

I just shook my head and never said anything. I went back to my thoughts as Jake moved back across the bridge. Truth is I had never been very religious. I suppose if it came down to it, I was Agnostic. I didn't really believe in anything, except maybe the love of my five boys, Pakurr the most, but even my others I loved very much.

Just thinking of Pakurr, seemed to draw him to the bridge. As he walked up I pulled him into my lap and held onto him. He kissed me on the cheek and then just snuggled into my embrace. This was for me contentment. I had a hold of my singular love and I never wanted to let him go.

Much later we both left the bridge. Andy had made a good dinner and even had some of the boys feeding our charges. The Corpsman, told me he had given my three wounded boys both a shot of antibiotics, plus a tetanus shot. He figured they would all sleep good tonight. Jake and Jason sat and had dinner with me as we watched the Corpsman work. Pakurr had taken a tray down to my other boys. Sal was on the bridge with Jimmy. Simon was spoon feeding one of the wounded sailors. Just thinking about how easily my crew worked together brought tears to my eyes. The corpsman came over and sat down, even before he could say a word, Andy brought out a plate and set it in front of him. Roast Pork, with mashed potatoes and gravy, fresh vegetables and a salad. A few seconds later he was back with fresh hot rolls and butter and a cold beer.

"Dig in while it's hot." I said.

He looked long and hard at the cold beer and shook his head.

"Go ahead Son, you've earned it. From what I have seen."

"Sandpiper is not Navy and is not a dry ship. Enjoy it Wilkinson." Jake said.

I picked up my scotch and walked out onto the after deck. Both machine guns were still mounted, but covered in tarps. The place where Samsun had died was now cleaned completely with no traces of the river of blood I had seen. The Rover I just dismissed. As I turned to walk back into the lounge, the intercom squawked.

"Radar Contact, 12 miles. Appears to be two ship in line astern." Jimmy said.

"The Glover and Maestrale." Jake said.

We both headed up to the bridge. Jake figured we were about 450 miles from where Cyclone was. The two Frigates looked like they were doing 25 knots. That still put them over 12 hours away from Cyclone. More like 16 hours I thought. I hoped Cyclone and her crew were okay. We exchanged greetings as we passed about 600 yards away. I knew we would reach Guam sometime during the night. I told Jake I was going to turn in early and to wake me when we spotted Guam. I headed for my stateroom. Sal and Simon were talking quietly to Pakurr when I entered. Singh, Siam and Aaron were laying together dead to the world, sound asleep. Sal and Simon said they were going up to give the Navy guy a break so he could sleep too. I kissed both boys and they left. Pakurr and I had a slow shower and then just snuggled together and went to sleep.
