An isolated hideout

Patty leads Tina through the woods and towards a rundown farm house. Patty's gang had agreed to meet here, should anything go wrong.

The fields around it are untended and overgrown, and the building itself is a light breeze away from falling over, but lucky for Patty, Tina doesn't know anything about farming.

"Is this where you live?" Tina asks, unable to hide her disappointment.

"No," Patty chuckles. "I am simply staying here for a few days. It's uh... my sister's house. Yeah, that's the ticket."

The pirate woman pulls on the door to the house, squeaking in shock as the door falls off its hinges and nearly hits her.

"It uh, needs some work, obviously," Patty says as she looks at the skeptical Tina.

"Yeah..." The blonde knight-in-training agrees.

"But, it should have all the amenities you need, and there's probably a change of clothes here you can borrow," the pirate queen says as she looks her prize over.

Tina slowly enters the ramshackle building and looks around.

I can't believe someone would want to live here!

The spoiled noble runs her hand reflexively through her hair, temporarily forgetting she's still covered in mud.

"Yuck," she says as she looks back at her hand. "You know what? I could use a bath. Draw some water for me."

Patty just looks at Tina utterly aghast. "Now you listen here..." She starts to angrily yell.

The cruel woman wants so badly to smack that look off Tina's face and tell her who's in charge here, but reminds herself to play it cool, at least for the moment.

"That's... a great idea. You look for a wash basin and I'll search for a pump," Patty says as she puts on a fake small, and adds a saccharine tone to her voice.

"I thought you knew your way around here," Tina says, obviously irritated to have to do any work.

"I said I was visiting, but... oh never mind." Patty does not suffer fools lightly, and it's taking every fiber of her being to not just strip this girl and start spanking her right now. "Fine, I'll look for both. Just... just wait here, ok?"

The annoyed pirate leaves in a huff as she continues grumbling under her breath.
