"Hi Maka, how is your morning so far? Is Ahiga coming with us today?" Maka looked toward the voice and it was Adam. He had always made it a habit to talk to Maka even if it was just about her familiar. It made sense. Ahiga was a vicious creature that would destroy anything and everything that posed a threat to Maka. Even her crew mates, these heroes, if necessary. He was malicious and walked as if he was ready to attack and his fur always stood on end, aware of his surrounds. He scared people and that was what he was there to do. Scare them. Slowly Maka shook her head. "Not on this journey" she said simply. There was no immediate danger, therefore there was no need for Ahiga.
The native led the group to another village to collect supplies, but she was wondering why Charlotte wanted to go to the other village by herself. Most likely Killian would go with her, but it raised suspicion. Maka made not to bring it up later. It didn't take long for the group to gather more supplies for the Jolly Roger. Grabbing food, tools, clothes, and for Maka more paper. It was a personal item that she required to keep her sanity on that boat. She waited around for the others as she walked about taking note of the village people. They seemed friendly enough, but Maka caught the eyes of some of them and they were wary of the travelers. The villagers had every right to be. Pirates didn't represent anything good.
After everything was collected the group made way there way back toward the ship. Her hand kept hold of the paper that she had acquired in the town. She didn't want to lose it. In the distance she could see Charlotte and Lady. They had returned from the journey, but something was wrong. But she couldn't put a finger on it. Her sight might be good, but she was still pretty far away. She nudged the others and pointed in the distance so that they were also aware of this.
