::Puck chuckled and set his feet on the ground, and as son as they did he changed apperance, turning into a perfect imitation of Jack Sparrow::
::He used his voice as he spoke:: "At least I used only his voice and not his body then eh?" ::and he quickly changed back then added:: "Quite the contrary I have great respect for your Captain.....a great deal....."
::He floated cross legged in the air and frowned:: "So you've nothing to fear from me....I'm clean and I'm very friendly to animals....." He added with a smile::
"If your'e wondering about the Captain..he'll be along in a few minutes.....and I'll be gone by then...." He assured her::

*Tobbs blinked as she saw Puck, then Jack, then Puck, and all at once meshed in as one person..or thing. She'd have to figure that one out. But how weird was that? She almost laughed as he said it was a good thing he'd not looked like him.*
"Ah yes...I'd 'ave to agree with that...although, you'd probably 'ave a fanciful time then, being that I'd give you a mmore...welcome greeting..."
*She actually smiled at him now, the tension slowly sliding away and her own playfulness shining through. She couldnt hide her playful side for some reason. At first, just especially around Jack. Now it seemed she had another person that made her teasing nature kick in.*
"Fear? Ha! That wasn't even a concern....I was just contemplating whether or not to remove that pretty 'ead of yours off those shoulders. I wasn't afraid one bit. I never am!"
*She was thankful Jack was coming....she actually glanced around just to see if he was near.*
"Gone? Leaving so soon? So that's what you whatcha-ma-call-it's call manners? Knocking a girl right off 'er feet and leaving 'er after you've toyed with 'er and 'ad your fun? Well aren't you charming..."

Post by Emma Hawkins/Rick MacKinnon on Nov 2, 2004 22:02:36 GMT -5
For a few minutes,Emma allowed Rick to hold her close as they walked,his coat wrapped around her shoulders.She lay her head against his shoulder,eyes staring sightlessly ahead.Everything felt so unreal...for once,she felt so vulnerable...so shattered and weak...
As they reached the town,though,the part of her that had kept her alive so many times before woke up again.She moved away from Rick slightly,shrugging his coat off of her shoulders and slipping it back onto him,before sliding her hand into his and squeezing it softly.She was Emma bloody Hawkins,dammit...she couldn't let herself be so weak.That would make her a disgrace to herself and to her crew...Not to mention her reputation.She was unshakable...And as long as she could believe that,she would be.
Her thoughts were abruptly abandoned as she noticed something in an alley as they passed.Something that looked an awful lot like...pillows...?A ridiculous amount of nice,silk pillows and blankets....Eyebrow raised,she veered off towards the mass.
"Ev?'S that you?God,what'd ye do,rob a fabric store?"She asked,tugging on an edge of a blanket.

::Puck actually smirked. A glint of pure mischief glowing in his eyes::
"Hold not your hand too close to the candles flame. For while warm and inviting can burn when too close...." He said softly then contemplated Tobbs a moment longer::
"I'm leaving because I have a certain child to visit. A sweet young changeling." He added with a grin and a nod::
"Wait for your captain. He'll be along in no time at all...." Then he added gesturing to Mark's door:: "Don't worry about it now..."
::He was gone in a flash of green light and gold sparks and appeared once more in the Turner baby's room::
::He carefully plucked the baby from his bed, wrapping him in his sea green blanket, and hummed tot he giggling child:: "Would you like to come away with Uncle Puck?" He asked the baby, who giggled and clapped. He grinned:: "Very well then...."

::Jack hurried along guessing Tobbs had gone to Marks. and he got there in time to see something create a brillant green flash of light and there was Tobbs::
"Tobbs! What are you doin't here...come on...I'm not confronting him till morning..." and he tugged her along down the street, mumbling:: "It's my fight, luv...not yours.....and what was that light?" He added as an after thought:: "let's go back....."

*Elizabeth rose her eyes from the ground when she heard a knock at the door, wondering if it was Will... She rushed after Jacque, but to her disappointment, it was her father, the commodore, and some of his men.*
"Father...well, its good to see-"
*He was chattering away on the Commodore and giving directions again, so she kept silent and kept her eyes glued to the door. When he shifted his attention abck to her, she sighed.*
"Oh, it's nothing. Just a bit of distress going on. The night's been quite eventful, I have to admit."
*She tried to keep mellow, tried to keep talking on like nothing was wrong, hiding the feeling of wanting to dash outside and find her husband.*
*Milly had awoken from the sleep Puck had put her in, and she was tiredly blinking and rubbing her eyes. The nanny was sleeping on the rocking chair, so she curled up beside the crib, just hidden by the curtains, but close to the door.*
*When Puck had reappeared, she jumped a bit, startled, but kept deadly quiet. He was fascinating, but she'd been ordered to keep guard. And she'd always treated James like her very own brother.*
*In fear of what could happen to him, she let one moment slip and she dashed for the door, fleeing out into the hallway crying at the top of ehr lungs.*
"MISS 'LIZBETH MISS 'LIZBETH HE'S GOT JAMES HE'S GOT JAMES!!!"
*Her heart stopped. She couldn't breathe. Her eyes flew up towards the stairs where Milly's voice echoed from. In no hesitance at all, she flung herself up the steps, racing as fast as she could to James.*
"No...no please!"
*She was on the verge of a breakdown, and she watched someone fly out to find Will again. Grabbing a large fire poker that was near some of the maid's cleaning things set to be cleaned and replaced back by it, she charged open the door and stood panting before the thing that held her only son.*
"Give him to me...or I'll run you through right here on the spot...."
*No hesitance in ehr voice. No fear of what he was. She glared angrily at him. She could hear Norrington and his men, as well as her father, coming down the hallway.*
"give him back...please....give him to me...NOW!"

::Puck eyed Elizabeth a moment then the poker. He felt iron in it and he frowned but for a second then smiled brightly:: "Don't worry...no harm will come to him..."
::With that Puck cradled the child gently, and bowed his head over him, almost protectivly and was gone in the blinking of an eye, a flash of green light.::
"He'll be safe....." A voice echoed in the room and it vanished::
::When Puck did reappear it was far from any of the crew. He was sitting atop the blacksmith's shop on its roof, humming a gentle lullaby:: "You trust me right little one? You know I'm not going to hurt you...but human children are so fasinating....."
::He summoned up a few glowing orbs of green light and juggled them about to amuse James and watched the baby giggle and laugh over them. Puck smiled, watching, and hummed a bit more, just enjoying the little baby's company for some odd reason::
::Babies were such innocent things. They trusted you without reserve and never judged. It was what Puck liked about them. Their outright trust. Puck smiled then added:: "I'll give you back later....all right little changeling?" James giggled:::

*Elizabeth eyed the stranger with an almost sort of hate in her eyes. She blinked, knowing his intention, reached out her hand to try and grab him, but was too late. She crumbled to the ground and sobbed, ignoring the voice that spoke to her.*
*She wouldn't budge. She needed her husband. She needed Will. Her son taken. Her only son. The son she loved. The family she'd had. He was her baby, her little one, and he was gone. And she cried harder.*
*She didn't care that her father entered, that Norrington watched silently, that the soldiers were addressed to wait outside, or that Milly sobbed in the corner as well. She didn't care that they coaxed her, pleaded with her to get up, told ehr they'd find him. No, it didnt matter.*
"Getaway...he's gone...get away..."
*She couldn't say no more. She wouldn't. All she wanted right now, was to be with her son and her husband, united once again.*

Post by Evelyn on Nov 2, 2004 23:34:03 GMT -5
Evelyn huffed angrily. She was at the near peak of her anger underneath the mountain of blankets that were mounted upon her and Eric and she couldn't breathe for a moment before she was finally able to stick her head out from under them. "ARGH! THAT man is UBEARABLE!" Evelyn growled as Eve struggled to push away the giant wave of blankets. She sputtered a bit as a few feathers flew from the fluffy coverings and she felt her hair carefully.
She sensed something in her hair and Evelyn pulled at the object and her eyes went wide. "FLOWERS?!" Evelyn muttered disgustedly. She shook out the flowers and turned to Eric. "Well...help me get them out Eric." She demanded, ignoring the rather amused look upon his face. Evelyn's face was flushed a soft pink tone and she plucked the daisy's from her chocolate curls. She stood and helped Eric up, giving him only the slightest bit of a smirk of her lips, something that at the moment only Eric would see.
Her hand discreetly slipped towards his hand and she squeezed it gently, before turning to face a familiar voice that rang out in the cold night.
The voice caught her attention and she turned to see Emma. "Emma?" She asked, as if still in shock and really questioning whether it had all been a dream or not. "Ah! Thank God! Someone SANE!" Evelyn said hastily, tossing away the remaining flowers and then looking around with concern. "Ye best keep a weary eye out Em, there's some odd fellow 'bout mate...ye'd do good ta go an' find yerself shelter." Evelyn suggested with a nod and not bothering to straighten out her clothing.
"In fact...if ye wan', ye can even come stay with Eric an' I. Eric's got a house not too far from 'ere an' there's plenty o' room fer you and Rick." She said looking about with a keen eye, making certain to look out for this strange being. All she knew, was the next time she met him...she wouldn't exactly be a happy pirate at all...

*Tobbs contemplated the little saying from Puck a bit, wondering what in fact he was referring to, and if so was he really referring to that, or referring to something else and tricking her by making her think it was that....and so on...*
*And then Jack was there, and she was dragged off in a bit of puzzlement. He was talking, she was listening. Although things were going by fast for some reason.*
*When she finally collected it all as information, ran it through her mind once more, and then realized all he was saying, she blinked, stopped in mid step, pulled him into an alley, and pressed him against the wall of a house, eying him carefully.*
"Now wait a minute Jack Sparrow, don't think for one minute I was trying to fight your fight for you; I knew very well you could do it by your onesies. But I'm not going to let someone treat the man I love like some minor bilge rat and get away with it without a piece of my mind!"
*She furrowed her brows and stared straight into his own eyes.*
"And the only explanation I have for that bright green light was the daftest being you'd ever imagine-and being that you'd already mistrust me and believe I was off to wage your war, I don't think you'd really believe me if I told you, After all-"
*And on and on she talked....*

:::Puck was having a wonderful time with the giggling little baby. He was so easily amused that it somehow soothed Puck. When he felt a burning around his wrists::
"What...the?" Puck looked at his gold manacles curiously and heard a low rumbling voice speaking to him::
"Puck.....you know better. Not to involve the innocent."
"The baby? I'm just playing."
"Puck." The tone was warning. Puck muttered.
"Yes Lord Oberon. I'll take the child back...." Puck muttered angerily. His manacles burned aganist his skin and Puck hissed in pain.
"Be sure you do." The burning was gone and Puck grumbled, but tucked the child close to him and smiled::
"All right then...come on little one....bet your mum's worried...." He smirked then made sure the baby was wrapped up warmly.::
::He appeared a few seconds later in the baby's room. Elizabeth and Milly were there.....and Puck appeared silently, and hovering just slightly. He looked at them warily::
"Sorry." He said softly. "He's not hurt." He added and looked at them both, seemingly not sure if it was safe to be there. The poker was iron...and that could be fatal:::

Sam was lying in his bed looking at the ceiling. He didn't want Mark to fight Jack. He didn't doubt Mark's ability. He didn't doubt Jack's either. He just didn't want one of them to end up dead. It could cause a "Civil War" of sorts. Then the crew would likely retaliate and Mark would have to fight untill all of them were killed or one side gave up...perhaps that was a little unlikely though. Suddenly he saw the window pop open. He sat up quickly...and quickly regreted that choice...for his stomach burned with pain. He winced a bit and was a bit surprised to see who it was...Rhys. She began to ask his help to stop Mark from fighting Jack. She thought he was gonna die...she apparently hadn't seen Mark at his good times. He'd put men twice his size on the ground in a matter of seconds. He pondered a bit and then spoke:
"I will help you under one condition...I have to know something....and I want the truth....if you lie to me I won't help at all....."
He said staring her in the eyes. He thought a moment and then asked what he wanted to know.
"Do you love him?"
He asked it as he pulled her to him softly. He looked at her with a look of concern. He didn't exactly know how she would react to that...he prepared his face for a smack....and hoped it wouldn't come.

::Jakc eyed Tobbs a long moment then smiled and hugged her tightly:: "All right lass...all right...I'm just a bit tired....and don't want ye hurt too....had enough of the things I love getting destroyed to last me a lifetime....."
:::he kissed her head gently then smiled:: "I know yer worried.....but I'd feel better if ye stay in my reach......savvy?"
::He smiled tiredly then looked back at the docks then back at Tobbs:: "Just stay with me....I''ll feel better if yer with me..."

*Elizabeth felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Milly. She glanced up when she heard a voice too, the voice that had taken her son.*
*And she saw him again. She winced, glared, squeezed the poker. The others had backed out of the room. She eyed the being suspiciously, then looked to her James.*
"James..."
*She said rather longingly, standing, approaching the being, and eying him. Then, gently placing her hand on his shoulder, she smiled a bit, sniffled, wiped her tears away, and spoke deadly quiet.*
"Not hurt...Why then...why did you...but it's no matter...."
*She looked back to the baby, whom seemingly was peacefully laying there. She smiled more. Then looked to him with a pleading face*
"Please...could I hold him now...?"

*Tobbs smiled at Jack, pinpointing the sense of sadness she hinted in his voice. She sighed. She should have never left him.*
"Alright..I won't go out of reach....I'll stay with you..right by your side...savvy?"
*She hugged him gently, for a long time, resting her head on his shoulder, holding him close, and feeling a bit more guilty for leaving.*
"Aye...let's go back...we'll...we'll sleep in a bit...we both need rest...you 'specially.."
*So, kissing his cheek in return, she held his hand in hers, leading him back to the Turners silently, sticking very closely to him.*
*When they got in view of the home, and began walking towards the door, she saw the lights were on, and it seemed some visitors had come. She shrugged and guessed more of the crew.*
"I guess the others made it eh?"
