Walk of shame

When the sun rises on Bastiaan's brilliant and doomed plan to take over the Dutch ship the boy limps out of the docks after being tossed behind some barrels by a member of the crew. He laid there in pain and humiliation for an hour until he had the courage to face the agony walking would bring. It'll be a long trip to safety. Especially if he's not taken in.
He keeps his head down and tries to cover his face with his hair. It's a bloody mess. His features are soaked and hidden under gore and his breathing erratic. The seat of his pants are so wet with blood and darker more horrible things it runs down the back of his legs.
The trip to the Jolly Roger is a long one and though he'd rather not be there the waitress he annoys might be the only one willing to let him sleep in a soft clean place while he heals or just dies. Both are an equal possibility.

He finds her with eyes half shut and stinging with blood and stares at her back, waiting for her to turn around.
"Help."
