[shadow=purple,left,300][glow=teal,2,300]*Arayel stepped into the tavern, the only thing on her mind bein' a good mug o' rum, when suddenly she heard a voice behind her that sounded somewhat familiar, turning she saw a form she had no' seen in many a long time.* Aye, ye' be knowing me Arien lass! *She said cheerfully as she heartily shook the other womans hand* It's been a long while. What brings ye' to Tortuga mate? I just swaggered into port this morn. Shall we be sittin' and havin' ourselves a mug o' rum, and per'aps somthin' to eat as well? I be starved.[/glow][/shadow]

::The docks of Port Dantes are quiet. The calm, dark water laps gently against the shore, and there's not a ship in sight. ...Save one. A large black ship with white sails is making its way into the harbor. The name "The Cutlass" is painted on the side in dark red letters. The deck of the ship appears deserted but for two men. One stands at the helm, guiding the ship into dock, while the other stands at the bow, staring into the dark water, and petting a small monkey in his arms::
"Hawk! Once we reach the dock, prepare to go ashore! We'll be needin' some supplies... These blighters tossed almost all the food and water ov'rboard when they saw us...." ::He kicked the head of a dead man out of his path as he made his way up to the helm, stepping in a pool of blood at the base of the stairs:: "Ugh! All ov'r me new boots! What a mess... Well, it's their own bloody fault! They shouldn' 'ave put up a fight."
::Before long, the Cutlass was being tied up at the dock, and Barbossa and Hawk were making their way through the streets of Port Dantes. Cloaked and keeping in the shadows, the two pirates decide to head first to the nearest tavern. Once there, they find a table in the corner, and sit down with a mug of beer each. Barbossa lowers his voice, and begins talking with Hawk about his plans::
"As ye already know, when ye found me on that island, I had been stranded, and left to die. Surely you've heard of Jack Sparrow...? Aye, well that be the man who done this ta me, and since that day three years ago, I've sworn ta get me revenge! Jack Sparrow will regret the day he crossed the path o' Captain Morgan Barbossa!"

OOC- Because Im going to be gone I will find Kat in Tortuga when I get back savvy? Im posting a bit of Kat so you can see what shes like.....*Posts then looks at what she typed* Meep.....evil.
Saber- Jacks Crew Woman
Saber flashed a grin at Jack "Aye stir things up a bit." Saber tried to pay attention to her work but she kept looking at the horizen "I wonder if she will be in Dantes? Maybe she grew up respectable, unlike me. I wonder if she remembers me? Perhaps she doesnt then what? What if she wont come with us?" And a thousand other questions filled her head. "Oh this is silly for me to be acting like this. Im not a child anymore, I just need to find out what happend to her then let her go on with her own life." She turned again to the rope she was working with, and shook the troublesome thoughts from her head.
Kat Tompson- Herself (lol)
A man quickly ran up to a darkend ally and stood there as if looking for somone "Your late" a voice growled from the darkness. The man who had run up started and looked about in fear "Stop it you fool, do ya want everyone in town to notice us?" a hand reached from the shadows and pulled him in "Alright I want full pay for this job right now and not after. Ive been cheated to many times for me not be careful." The man quickly drew forth a bag of coins and counted out the amount "Thank you, the last person who I did a job for needed a bit of persuasion to pay up front." The money was snatched from the mans hand "Now whos it ta be?" "Jenkins, Todd Jenkins" he stammerd "I know who Jenkins be ya dont need to go repeaing yourself" hissed the unseen voice. Then the man found himself pulled close "Not a word of this to anyone do ya hear? Be off with ya." The man quickly left the ally, green eyes watching his departure. I little later somone else came from the shadows, A young woman dressed in green with a look in her eyes that would freeze water. Her red hair blew in the wind as she made her way to the docks. She jammed her black hat on her head as she strolled along and chuckled with a sinister air to herself "Well another day another death." Then she went around the corner and disapered from site.

Rose Glassman
Rose leans against the side of the Pearl, hardly able to wait to visit Port Dantes. She's curious to meet Kat, the woman Saber keeps talking about. All of the talk of sisters has made her ache for her own long-lost brother. Sighing, she plays with the medallion around her neck.
Catching sight of the silver sparrow gleaming just below her medallion, Rose remembers another worry. Casting a surripetous, sideways glance at Jack, she wonders, as she has for the past three years, if he's insulted that she hasn't taken on his last name. Rose Sparrow sounded good...she liked the name...but Glassman was her birth last name, and she wanted to keep it in honor of her mother. She hopes Jack understands...
Hawk Aureye
Hawk stood at the helm of the Cutlass, listening to Captain Barbossa's words with a mental shudder. He hears him kick something, and hopes it's not a dead body - then again, knowing Barbossa, what else could it be? He shuddered again; the man's heart was bloody made of stone.
Showing no sign of his immense dislike of Barbossa to the man, Hawk nodded. "Aye, Cap'n," he spoke slurredly; his accent when speaking to the pirate captain was always just a little slurred, as if he was drunk. He had different accents for different occasions, but this one, to his disgust, was the one he found himself using most often.
Hawk skillfully brought the Cutlass into the port, admiring the easiness with which the ship manuvered. It was a beautiful craft - such a shame it had fallen into the hands of someone like Barbossa.
The two pirates slipped off the ship and through the busy Port Dantes streets, making their way into the tavern. With a mug of beer settled in front of him, Hawk muses about what he's become - consort, slave, really, to a man like Barbossa. Barbossa! If he had a choice, Hawk would readily slay a man of the "captain"'s stature. However, not only would an attempt on Barbossa's life cost Hawk his own life, but the man was cursed, and unable to be killed. Just his luck, that the man he served was the man he hated.
Listening to Barbossa's words, Hawk nodded. "Aye, I know 'im. Tha' idiot 'ose crew we fought three years ago, ain't it? I fought 'is daughter...I 'ate that li'l brat. 'Er an' 'er father. They both deserve ta die, an' whate'er ye got comin' to 'em, I 'ope it's bad."
Hawk grimaces at the accent effortlessly slipping from his lips. He hates putting on the accent, and has always wondered if he's overdone it, if Barbossa thinks it's fake. These past three years, Hawk had taught himself how to speak without the accent he naturally had, and could now imitate a voice clear of all accents. His normal voice, the one he could most easily speak in, had an accent, but it was not nearly as heavy as the one he always put on with Barbossa.
Sighing, Hawk hopes his response was the correct one as he takes a swig of beer.

:Jack watched as Port Dantes grew larger on the horizon, then took over the helm as they put into Port. He'd given his crew a small amount of gold coins each. This visit was strictly one of re supplying.......no stealing.....well.....not much. He gave Rose a pat on the back: "Why don't you go out with Tobbs and get a few hings you might be wantin'....no stealing...' He added to his daughter.
:He himself was going out to search for something to bring Will, Elizabeth and the twins, Catherine and James. He smiled and watched as the crew scattered, clearly to re stock on things they wanted, weather it be clothing, rum, weapons....anything they fancied. he wondered vaguly what Will might want.....:
:He walked along the roads of Port Dantes, getting very odd looks from the residents. He was used to it. He wondered if maybe he should just burst into song.......for the sake of scaring them. He grinned at them as they stared, making them scurry away like frightened birds. He laughed and went into a few shops. And actually PAID for his purchases. He didn't seem to care really. He was enjoying his time for now. Port Dantes was a beautiful place.....sort of Port Royale but with less of a Navy presence......he liked it. All they needed were a few really good taverns. And a lot more rum...everyone looked so stiff:
:He began humming his imfamous little tune and continued to enjoy the day:

-Clarion- *Clarion was still pacing the docks, his dark eyes scanning the horizon when he suddenly caught site of a ship. He raised a brow for he'd never seen this one before. He grabbed ahold of the collar of the man next to him.* Whose ship is that boy do ya know? *He asked. The man shook his head and Clarion roughly released him. Then he saw two men walk off it and head into a nearby tavern. Clarion watched them oddly.* Only two men, that seems odd. *He said to himself then he crept into the tavern and placed himself behind a nearby collum that was but a few feet from the table of Barbossa and Hawk. He listened intently and his heart skipped a beat when he heard Barbossa mention revenge upon Jack Sparrow. He quickly showed himself and sat down at their table. He looked between each of them and scowled.* So you want to get rid of Jack Sparrow eh? Well let me tell you something. I've been wanting to spill the blood of that good for nothing nobody ever since he attacked me a while back. Let me help you and I'll help you get him. Im an officer in the Royal Navy, my word will always be taken before his and I can cover up anything that ye do mates. Do we have a deal? *Clarion asked, holding out his hand to Barbossa, a wicked grin upon his face.*

ooc- Mwahaha Time for one last post...I guess I will find Kat now *grin*
Saber- Jacks Crew Women/Kat
Saber wanderd aimlessly about, she wanted to get some powder and shot for her pistols but there was no hurry. The girl couldnt help but smile as she realized that she turned quite a few heads in that sleepy little port, It wasnt every day a girl dresses as a man walked through the middle of town. As she walked she passed by a few pubs but didnt enter. "Not for me" she said to herself. All of a sudden she heard some shouting "Stop that girl! She just killed Tod Jenkins!" Saber hoped they werent talking about her as she looked about, then somthing slammed into her and threw her to the ground "Watch where your goin' ya fool" A voice hissed. Saber got up just in time to see several men surround a woman and grab her. Saber was puzzled because she couldnt quite make out what they were saying, but then she saw the girls face and gasped. It was Kat! She would never forget that face as long as she lived. quickly she rushed over to help her sister.
Meawhile the men had grabbed Kat and tied her hands behind her back "Let me go, I didnt do it." She pleaded "Oh yes and who would this belong to then 'eh missy?" Kat stared at the flask that dangled from the mans hand. Her name was written on the side. "You cant prove anything" she growled "Huh thats a laugh, we have about 3 wittneses. Your growing careless Kat, and now you will pay for all the lives you have taken. They started to drag her away when they wer set upon by a furious thing. "Let her go!" Saber cut her bonds as the men backed up suprised at what was happening. "Go go run!" she screamed. The two girls ran for thier lives as many started to give chase. "Alright why did you do that?" Kat panted as they ran then she caught a good glimps of the other girls face "Oh man it cant be?! Sarah? is that you? how..?" "There is no time to explain lets just get out of here alive!" The two ran down an ally and hid in the shadows. The men ran by and Saber began to lead Kat back to the Pearl. "So ya see Jack said we could look for ya, and now ive found ya! isnt it grand." Kat stopped and grabed Sabers arm "Sarah...uh Saber Is it true what happend to dad?" "im afraid so, but if it wasnt him it was me." Kat put her hand on Saber face and stroked it "I never thought Id see you again." then something broke in her that hadnt been broken in a while....her emotions. Tears began to course down her cheeks as they walked on. "Im glad ya found me Saber I truely am." Soon they were in site of the Pearl again. "There she be Kat, wonderful aint she? Jacks somewhere in town but it aint safe for you ta be out there so lets go aboard to wait for the rest of the crew."

Rose Glassman
Rose raised an eyebrow, grinning roughishly. "Don' worry...I won't get into trouble...at least, not much." Winking at her dad, she got off the ship cheerfully and ran after Tobbs.
After buying a few things - clothes, which she was in short supply of, a new bandana, and a new pair of gloves; being a pirate meant having to change clothes quickly and often - Rose strolled the streets of the city idly. Port Dantes was a nice place, she mused. Not as uptight as Port Royale, and not as relaxed as Tortuga. She'd hated the lowlife always running around the streets back home. If she ever retired from being a pirate, Rose felt this was where she'd stay. She wondered if Saber was having any luck finding Kat...
Hawk Aureye
Hawk raised an eyebrow at Clarion, resisting the urge to snort. "Wha'd ye say yer name was? Ah, righ', ye didn' say...well, Mister Royal Navy, lemme tell ye...iffen we picked up ev'ry lowlife a-wantin' revenge on Jack Sparra...we'd be up t' our ears in veng'ful scum, y' got me? Me cap'n doesn't take jus' ever'one wiv 'im...y' got t' give 'im a good reason...bloody good reason." The young man mentally shuddered - what was this garbage he was spewing? He supposed it would just be harder to escape from two men rather than one...

Raven Sparrow
Raven stood with her arms crossed over her chest admiring a fine looking chestnut stallion tied up outside a pub. Her storm grey eyes sweep over the horse appraisingly, the corners of her lips upturning slightly as she notices it's long thin legs and deep chest. "A fast one ye ar'... " Places a hand casually on the steeds chisled looking head, her long fingers finding the straps to his bridal. A sudden commotion from a nearby doorway has her jumping back into the shadows of a nearby allyway, her hand straying unconciously to the hilt of her saber. She frowned to herself as the figures of two men come into view. "Noblemen...." she thinks to herself. Immediatly her mind starts to shift into overtime, but stops suddenly as the taller of the two unties the horse that she had just been about to steal. She scowls and shoves her hands in her pockets beginning to walk off in the other direction, glancing over her shoulder out of habit. The streets of Port Dantes quickly cover up her passing.

*Tobbs, for once in her life, was a bit happy that she was ashore. She loved the sea, and would be on it any opportunity that presented itself, but she did need a few things for the Pearl, maybe herself to.
She grinned when she saw Rose come up behind her. Glad to have a companion, she walked around, gathering a few things for herself, then the crew in general, and finally supplies for the ship.
Yawning, she looked up to the sky. After a good walk, she grew a bit thirsty, so, heading for a cozy tavern, she walked inside with Rose.*
Rose, what ya be wishin' to drink? I've got to get these 'ere supplies to the ship, but why not take a small break, eh? *She turned to the bartender.* Give us some rum, good sir. *She laid the coins on the counter and decided they'd need to be a bit quick. As the bartender set their drinks on the counter, she toasted with Rose and took a swig.
Hearing something familar, she turned slightly to see three men hunched together in the corner...something wasn't right...There was someone who seemed to be of Norrington's men, though she wasn't so sure, another man with his back to her and a hat covering any glimpses of is face, as well as a boy. Well, he seemed Rose's age, but her attention was drawn away when a crew member came in.*
"The lass we've been searching for has been found!" She has? Well the, lead the way ole fellow! *Grinning again at Rose, she gave one suspicious glance back to the three, then left the tavern, the excitement of meeting this "Kat" beginning to stir.*

-Clarion- *Clarion glanced over at Hawk as the pirate spoke to him. There was a cold, harsh look in Clarions eyes filled with utter hatred for Jack Sparrow. He put his face close to Hawks and grinned a little.* Well mate you don't need to be knowing my name just yet. But don't underestimate me either, thats a good way to get yourself killed. *Clarion said, suddenly slipping a daggar up to Hawks throat, just to show how sly he really was. Then he removed it and placed it back at his side. He looked back to Barbossa.* Listen, I've been thinking of a way to get rid of Sparrow for years now, not just get rid of him though. You see I was thinking make him suffer a great deal...then kill him. *He grinned again.* I can help you set him up. Maybe do something terrible, really vicious here in Port Dantes and frame Jack. He'd go to jail and his suffering would be great. We'd see to it that the crime we framed him for was the most vicious crime one could imagine. And I could cover it up. Im apart of the Royal Navy, who wouldn't believe me over him eh? Now what do you say? *He raised a brow and starred hard at Barbossa.*

(OOC - Hawk, nice posting mate, but I'm actually not immortal anymore. That means I'll have to be extra careful from now on...*meep*)
~Captain Barbossa
::Barbossa reached for his pistol as soon as he saw the Officer approaching them. The last thing he needed was to be discovered as a pirate.... But when the man pulled up a chair and sat down next to him, he released his grip. Something was different about this man. And when he spoke, Barbossa knew exactly what it was. This man, Clarion, hated Jack Sparrow as well, and was now offering his help in killing the scoundrel. Barbossa thought for a moment, and then took Clarion's outstretched hand in his own:: "Aye, we 'ave an accord. Now....what exactly do ye 'ave in mind...?" ::Barbossa listened intently as Clarion described his plans of finding Jack::

-Clarion- *Clarions grin grew as Barbossa shook his hand and claimed they had an accord. He glanced about the area to make sure there weren't any unwanted ears listening in. Then he shot his gaze back to Barbossa.* Well, I was thinking maybe set him up somehow like I was saying so that he gets put into jail and tortured for what he's done. But in order for him to be tortured the crime has to be very, very wicked. *Clarion said, emphasizing the words very. Then he continued on.* Maybe we could murder someone, or a couple people. Or make it really wretched and murder dozens then pin it on him. How would we go about doing that though. *Clarion said, sinking deeper into thought.*
