ScarletRose:....and wonders where he can find a pharmacy

Jim Dandy:

Meanwhile another dashing figure appeared. His eyes were filled with dark,amber liquid fire that sparkled with charm....His tan complexion, toned in the sun...his smooth voice detracted attention away from the ancient spanish armor he wore..."Buenos tarde, Scarlet," he spoke in a deep voice soft as only a noble spaniard can entone. "encantada" he almost whispered as he kissed her hand....the word meant enchantment and she certainly felt beguiled.
"My name is Fernando...the real Fernando..." he began. He told her that he had searched the New World or as he put it "Nuevo Espana" with Ponce DeLeon for the fabled Fountain of Youth and the Seven Cities of Cibola with Coranado..he had found the founatain after his return to what they now called Puerto Rico..and his ship had been blown far off course by a storm like he had never seen before...they had drifted through a sea of kelp fighting to keep there small craft going...when they had found this island...Fernando admitted that he had long since discovered the secrets of the island and that he had created the fountain from his mind....He told Scarlet that dhe too would be allowed to drink of it, but unfortunately like all things that leave the island...its gift would disappear within days...all of the island's gifts did so...and if Senorita Earhart was to go, then she would be a very old woman indeed in just a week or so...He himself would certainly turn to dust...With that he smiled and said,"But what is out there when you can live forever? Just be careful...sometimes people think of sea serpents...or monsters...and sometimes other fantasies come true" As he spoke a full moon appeared, candlelight, wine....
Scarlett began to fear the powerful charm Fernando carried...if his story were true, then he was centuries old...and she didn't see any other spaniards about....
"Come my beautiful rose...sit with me a small moment of time. There is food for us and the breeze seems perfect...I promise you will be delighted by this culinary mastery by the finest chef my imagination could recall...." he smoothly pulled the exquisite chair back as an invitation to dine....

Horseman:

She noticed that her captor was bound to a tree facing away from the table...Fernando noticed her glance..
"ahhh, my beautiful swan...do not worry about this man. I, Fernando, have seen to it that he will not trouble you again...
It was odd...she thought..she did not even recall where her gag had disappeared..or how she had gotten to this spot overlooking the ocean...
was she thinking of somebody...?
"Have some wine my beautiful princess..." Offered Fernando...and she sipped the wine as all thoughts of friends were forgotten...
