This RPG was started and played out by the first crew mates, and the idea of placing it 'ere was Jack Sparrow's, who thought of and began the rpg!
The Adventure Begins
~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow: (OOC) Now maties, I wasn’t to sure of how to introduce a plot to you...so I’ll just write down me thoughts.
The cursed pirates escape prison via the help of that blasted monkey, bringing with him bits of gold, making the pirates immortal again. They take over Port Royale and kidnap Elizabeth and Governer Swann....as a revenge plot....or so Will thinks.
Barbossa has discovered a way to live forever and be able to feel. He needs to shed blood again. The blood of the people his enemies love. So he brings Elizabeth and her Father aboard his ship. Elizabeth is expecting a baby any day now. Will, in a panic goes to find the only pirate he know that can help...Jack Sparrow. So he sails to Jack’s favorite haunts and finds him and his crew who agree to help, by ....but Norrington...still stung over losing Elizabeth to Will, complicates matters by sailing after Jack and his Crew. Barbossa has two thirds of his problem solved. He has Elizabeth, the woman Will turner loves, Governer Swann, Elizabeth’s father, whom she loves.....But he is at a lose for who the loved one of Jack Sparrow is. Until he learns of his daughter, Rose. In a battle on the Sea, Rose is ripped from her Father and the Black Pearl is once more taken over by the Immortal Pirates, leaving Jack and Co stranded. In a twist of Fate Norrington arrives, seeking Jack, and together they join forces on the HMS Dauntless and the HMS Interceptor. Thus starting the adventure all over again. Now they have to kill the pirates, stop the Inmortality Ceremony from taking place and losing the lives of Elizabeth, Governer Swann and Rose. If not the Pirates will live forever......and the Caribbean is doomed!
The Day begins like any other in Port Royal, bright, sunny with a puff of balmy air. WILL TURNER AND ELIZABETH are just waking, as are the other residents of PORT ROYALE.
JACK and his CREW are out on the open Sea, heading in the general direction of Port Royal on the BLACK PEARL. JACK is at the helm and being his "normal" self.
However, the RESIDENTS OF PORT ROYALE are unaware of CAPTAIN BARBOSSA AND HIS CREW headed their way. They are sailing aboard a stolen ship called the DYING SUN.
NORRINGTON and his MEN are awake at the FORT, watching the Sea. Nothing yet looks troubling, and there is no sign that this morning will begin diffrent from any other.
(That’s your starting positions and the basic plot direction maties.....set sails and be off!) SAVVY? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow)
:Jack stood at the helm of his ship, the Black Pearl, his eyes scanning the horizen. It had been nearly a year since he’d seen the Docks of Port Royale and his then reluctent partner in crime, Will Turner. He’d sailed around this time, being...well a pirate and picking up a rather interesting crew. They were only a days sail away from Port Royale now and as he sailed he hummed a song he and Will’s lady had sun while stranded together. The crew was getting rather annyed with his singing now but they’d caught on quick:
"We’re rascals, scoundrels, villians, and knaves, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho. We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho! Yo ho yo ho, a pirates life for me......." ~~~~~~~~~~~ Snort/ Crew of the d**ned
The sun is out and therefore no outsider could recognize this pirate as living yet unliving. A pirate that goes by the name Snort sits up on the mast as a look out for any unwanted visitors. He holds his dagger in his hand slowly turning it waiting for the crew attack later in the day. he snorts and spits down landing on some other pirate... ~~~~~~~~~~~ Norrington
The day is windy as usual, but the warm weather makes things quite comfortable....Commodore Patrick Norrington looked outside the Port Royale Fort, his silver cutlass at his side, and his light brown eyes (can’t remember from the movie) search the place over which he protects. His eyes first lay upon the Dauntless, his worthy ship...it’s been too long since he’s sailed her...the last time was....with that pirate, Sparrow!! Although Norrington publicly despised the man, he was a pirate!, secretly, he admired the man for his apparent bravery, and loyalty, even for a pirate. But that was never to be revealed, imagine what would happen to his reputation? Oh, but how he wished to sail on the open seas again.....perhaps alongside the pirate....NO man, that’s foolery!!
Norrington forced his eyes from the sails of the Dauntless, and scanning the harbor, he spots Elizabeth and Will Turner. Oh Elizabeth, how he did long for her. Her beautiful locks of hair, that smile of heaven....but no, she was with the man she deserved, he knew that, and it was the right thing to do letting her go. And then there was Will, although the man was slightly odd, Patrick had become a regular acquantaince with the blacksmith since he began seeing Elizabeth. After all, he did make excellent blades!!!
For some reason, the day had a fell chill to it....odd for this time of year...Norrington turned to his men in the barracks, seeing they were as utterly bored as he, and turning to Ally and David, his Dauntless First Mate and Fort Captain (second in command at the Fort to Norrington)respectively, his two most trusted confidants, he sat down next to them.
So old beans, looks like we’re in for another uneventful day, bloody Carribean flies, I swear....how’s the armoury looking David ol’ chap?? And the Dauntless, is everything ship-shape (oh, that was funny!!!) today Ally? ~~~~~~~~~~ Shaun Harper
Shaun Harper yawned as he came on deck of the Black Pearl. He took off his knitted voyager’s cap (sort of looks like a night cap) and ruffled his scruffy blonde hair. Putting his cap back on, Harper smiled hearing the offkey singing from the helm. Limping a little more from not moving his bad all night, he came over to the starboard rail and looked at the ocean in the morning light, and young Harper joined in on the famous song.
"We pilage, plunder, rifle and loot, Drink up me heaties yo-ho! We kidnap and ravage and don’t give a hoot, drink up me heaties, yo-ho! Yo-ho, yo-ho, a pirate’s life for me..." ~~~~~~~~~~ Mason
*Mason goes abouthis duties on deck all the while happily singing along with jack, he was glad to be going back to Port Royale it had been nearly three years since he had been there and could not wait to get back* ~~~~~~~~~~

Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew
Rosalìna Glassman, at the moment, had no idea where she was.
She did know, however, that she was in trouble. Being the only person aboard a small boat that had a leak that was letting in water very, very quickly. This, by anyone’s standards, was not good, but being alone in the ocean with no idea where she was was even worse. All in all, it was not the best of ways to start her pirating career.
"Mental note to self," Rose muttered, looking with dread at the growing hole at the bottom of the boat. "Next time...check the bloody boat for holes before you steal it."
She attempted to bail out her boat, but the water was coming in too quickly. It would start to sink soon, and she did NOT want to still be on the boat when that happened. Sighing, Rose looked out onto the horizon, trying to spot a ship that would be able to take her on so that she could continue to search for pirates...and her father.
Ever since Rose could remember, she’s wanted to find her father. Partially because she wanted to finally give him a piece of her mind and demand of him why he left her mother to support Rose by herself...but partly because she’s always been fascinated by pirates, and would have loved to become one herself. She idolized the stories of what her father;s done, and figures there’s no one better to teach her to become a pirate.
I bet Father never stole a leaky boat, Rose thought bitterly, noting that the boat was beginning to sink. Biting her lip, she quickly climbed up the mast, determined not to get any wetter. And, at that moment, she saw a ship approaching...on the horizon...could it be? As it got nearer, she managed to see the words The Black Pearl.
Rose couldn’t help but grin. The famous Black Pearl, that her father himself had once been captain of? She couldn’t resist the opportunity...plus, if she stayed here any longer, she’d go down with the stolen boat.
"Ahoy there!" she yelled as load as she could. With one hand, she ripped her dark red bandana off her head, waving it in the air. "Could one of you give a girl a hand, mates? I could use some ’elp here!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
Nick stood walked up to the stern of the ship. She looked out at Port Royale. It had been a long time since she’d been here, and when she had, it was only a few times. She didn’t really care where they went...as long as it was nowhere near France. Or Europe for that matter. She smiled as she heard some crew members join Jack in singing. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Sarah *Sarah stared out to sea, only half listening to what Elizabeth and Will were talking about. Suddenly Sarah heard the mention of Captain Jack Sparrow and her attention drew back to the conversation.* What about Captain Jack? Shall we meet him on our voyage? Oh, sorry for interuppting, Liz (My nickname for Elizabeth). ~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow :Jack looked down at his waking crew and grinned a golden studded grin and continued his upbeat singing for a few more minutes until he finally just stopped and stared out over the Sea. He loved being a pirate for times like this. The Sea and Sky so blue that it put the most sparkling sapphires to shame. The wind so salty and warm it made any man with half a soul smile and be glad he was breathing.:
:A small figure on the horizon caught his eye, and as they sailed closer he saw it was a young girl on a small boat that looked like it was going down with no hope of recovery.:
"Aren’t you a bit far out to sea there, lass?" He asked, as they pulled level with the tiny boat, and his crew flung out a rope for her. it seemed more and more common that ladies were following in Anamaria’s footsteps and taking to Sea jus as eagerly as young men were. But she looked a bit young to be out on her own: "Climb aboard.....we’ll take you to Port Royale...." He said, assuming this is where she’d come from. After all, her ship wasn’t Sea worthy and she couldn’t have sailed that far.: ~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterbye "The armoury’s looking good, Commodore Norrington. I just checked it m’self. And these blasted flies!" *David took a swat, and brought down three flies. He grinned roguishly.* "Eh, not bad." *His blue eyes peered over the wall, and to the sea. Oh, how he loved the sea! But, the sea also shouted out its remembrance of what had happened 10 years ago. David shook his head, looked back up at the commodore, and grinned.* "Such a lovely day, isn’t it, Commodore?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew
Rose looked at the approaching Pearl in relief. She grabbed the rope and was pulled onto the deck. "Thanks," she says, executing an elaborate bow in the direction of the man who had called out to her, slightly surprised that his accent sounds similar to her own.
"Port Royale? That’s where you’re off to, eh?" She didn’t think she’d have to go back to Port Royale after what happened there last time...hopefully, no one would remember her. She could stock up on supplies, steal another boat, and get pirating tips on the way from this crew. She nodded slowly. It seemed like a good plan.
"Sounds good," Rose says, her eyes traveling over the ship. "You the captain? What a ship to be captain of...the Black Pearl...the ship I’ve heard stories about...she’s a beauty, even better craft than I’d imagined..." She idly runs her hand over the railing, taking it in like an artist, then turning back to the man she assumes to be the captain. "Thanks again for helpin’ me off that cursed wreck, Captain..." She pauses, waiting for him to introduce himself. ~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Thatcher--Miss Elizabeth’s maid
Abigail Thatcher walked quietly behind Miss Elizabeth and Will Turner. She made sure she was close to Miss Elizabeth in case she needed assistance but not too close to intrude on the private conversation between husband and wife. Having served Elizabeth Swann for many years, Abigail still retained her old habit of calling her mistress, "Miss Elizabeth." She couldn’t remember to call her "Mrs. Turner". Abigail had been Elizabeth’s maid for nearly a decade before her marriage to Will Turner and she naturally followed her mistress to her new house after she married. Abigail smiled softly to herself. It was beautiful outside. The day was warm yet a cool breeze was in the air. The summer humidity had not yet set in. And, she knew she looked good in her new cotton toile print dress. It was the latest fashion in London and Miss Elizabeth no longer wanted the dress since she was pregnant so Abigail inherited the outfit. Abigail hummed quietly to herself as they walked by the wharf. Several sailors turned around, whistled, gave her admiring glances. She blushed but was secretly pleased. She longed to be married to a handsome man but so far she had not met anyone in Port Royale. Perhaps one day soon she would meet an adventurous handsome soul who would sweep her off her feet like Mr. Will Turner did to Miss Elizabeth. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow "Captain Jack Sparrow......" He said with a smile. "Welcome aboard the Black Pearl...finest ship to sail all Seven Seas...."
:He turned and watched his crew a moment then looked back at the still unnamed girl: "Not proud to say it but I’ve had to sail in a boat like that myself....next time check for leaks, savvy?" He said, then added: "And you’d be.......I mean...other then foolish....." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sasha *Sasha woak up and saw the new girl, and her half sunk boat. She walked over to where the captian was talkin to her and waited for the convation to end, or atleast to catch her name. She started to sing to herself softly.* "Yo Ho Yo Ho its a pirate’s life for me...." ~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby-Port Royale Guard
David now looked down at the couple near the sea. He knew Commodore Norrington never really liked Will Turner, and also knew of his. . . . admiration for Elizabeth Turner. He smiled, then saw Abigail Thatcher walking behind them. He drew his breath in. She looked even better than she had before! "Is that a new dress?" he murmured, his eyes still on her form. She was very pretty, and he had seen her often before because of Commodore Norrington’s requests of Elizabeth to visit him at the fort. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew
At the mention of his name, Rose hears nothing else. She freezes in place, staring, shocked, at the pirate in front of her.
"Ca...captain Jack Sparrow?" she manages, blinking, still unable to comprehend the identity of the man before her. "THE Captain Jack Sparrow? You’re him?" Before going off on him, she has to be completely sure. With a critical eye, she surveys the pirate, from his hat to his teeth to his unusual outfit. Finally, with a hand on her hip, she looks back up at his face, disbelief in her eyes and voice. "...Really?" ~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Thatcher--maid to Miss Elizabeth Swann Turner
Abigail blushed a deep red when she saw David Letterby.. She had seen him around Port Royale many a time, and during Miss Elizabeth’s frequent visits to the Fort. He was a handsome Port Royale Guard, so dashing in his uniform. She saw him admiring her dress so she decided to be bold. She waved, "Good Day to you sir!" Miss Elizabeth heard her, turned around and looked to see whom she was waving to. Upon seeing it was David Letterby, Miss Elizabeth just smiled to herself and didn’t say anything. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow :Jack who had just turned his attention to the sky, looked over his shoulder, then turned fully around, thinking his "legend" had earned him a fan:
"That’s right...." He said. "THE Captain Jack Sparrow.....the only pirate to slip under the Royal Navy’s nose and escape from them countless times...." He went on in this manner for quiet some time, forgetting he’d not yet heard this girl’s name: then ended with: "And Captain of the Black Pearl....."
:Jack paused just long enough to draw breath and began singing once more: "We’re rascals, scoundrels, villians, and knaves, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho. We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho! Yo ho yo ho, a pirates life for me......." ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew
Rose raises an eyebrow at the singing pirate captain. Wow. He’s more arrogant than I ever thought he’d be. Her fury quickly returns, though...her anger at him for leaving her mother alone, without support...her sadness at her mother’s death...her frustration at her mother’s constant protection of Jack whenever Rose expressed her anger at him...they all build up inside Rose, who then did something she’d been planning for almost as long as she could remember.
She took two steps forward, raised her hand, and slapped her father across the face as hard as she could. ~~~~~~~~~~

Jack Sparrow :Jack blinked, and looked at the girl carefully. He was going through all the faces of ladies he knew in his mind and none of them seemed to fit this one. Maybe he’d stolen something from her a while ago.:
"Alright....you don’t look even vaguly familair.....so I’m certain I didn’t deserve that......" He thought a moment. "it’s the singing isn’t it? ...It’ll grow on you I swear on me honor as a pirate it will......took a while for the crew to like it too...."
:He looked down at the girl once more, and read something else on her face that wasn’t all anger. There was pain there as well. He stopped:
"What did I do...?" He asked, completly confused.: ~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
*Nick watches the conversation between Jack and Rose and doesn’t say anything. Her eyebrows raise at the slap and she thinks to herself.* Hm..this girl’ll make a bloody good pirate. *She wonders if he really did deserve it.* Hm, probably. *Nick mutters under her breath. She waits to hear his story...one of the many.* ~~~~~~~~~~~ Mason Dupont/ Jack’s Crew
*Mason finished with his duties and saw Nicky standing looking out at port royale he walked over to her and says* I always liked Port Royale, it’s a nice place, can’t wait to be back *he then looks out watchng it draw closer and smiles, he could not be happier it was such a fine day, this was what drove him to be a pirate* ~~~~~~~~~~~ Shaun Harper - Jack’s crew
After being yelled at to get to work, Harper had picked up swabbing the deck were the last man had left off. He moved around towards Mason and Nicky. "Port Royale," Harper said, "Aye, ’tis a nice place. But not if you be a pirate. Some fun we be havin’ there I’d be thinkin’ though." His Irish accent still with him after leaving Ireland 14 years ago. He looked up at Rose and Jack and shook his head while smiling, and then went back to work. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew
Rose bites her lip, forcing herself to calm down. "Well, of course I wouldn’t be familiar to you...never seen me before, have you?" She glares at him, fighting back sixteen years’ worth of tears. Now isn’t the time to show weakness. "You don’t get it yet, do you? Well, let me enlighten you...Captain." The word drips with sarcasm as Rose’s sharp grey eyes cut into Jack’s. "My name is Rosalìna Glassman. My mother’s name was Katarina Glassman." Slowly, she pulls a thin gold chain from under her shirt. There’s a small, circular gold medallion on the chain - the one thing Jack left with Katarina, and the one thing that Katarina had passed down to Rose, who knows Jack will recognize it. "Savvy...father?" ~~~~~~~~~~~ :Jack actually blanched a moment then looked around at his crew and shouted: "What are all of you lookin’ at?....get back to work!...."
:He watched the crew mutter and leave. Jack looked shocked. He’d not known he was a father. Nor did he think Katrina would have admited this girl’s father was a pirate. But Jack was never one to take things for face value...nor did he fully believe this girl’s story:
"So....you’re the daughter of Katrina are you.....?" He said carefully, and began walking up the deck to the helm of his ship. He’d recognized the medallion of course. But that didn’t mean she was his child. Katrina could have been with other men....maybe his name just stood out to her.:
:He looked at Rose: "Well that’s a fine story young Rosalina.....but you could have come by that trinket in many a ways.....bought it...stole it...." He added. "Savvy?" He looked over the horizon. "I’m not sure what stories you’ve been told but whatever they are you best be forgettin’ them.....We’ll take you to Port Royale...." He said with finality meaning "Subject is over." ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ally Black-Dauntless 1st Mate
*Ally smiled as Norrington sat down besdie her and David, and she nodded in reply to his question* Yes, sir, the Dauntless is in wonderful shape. I know that she’s ready to be back on the sea, just as we all are. The crew is a bit restless, which is understandable of course. Is there anything you need me to do, sir? ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew Rose turned white with fury at Jack’s words. She actually shook as he turned his back to her. Clenching her hands into fists, she was close to giving Jack a verbal lashing he’d never forget, but she was too close to tears to do so. Never did she imagine that her father would deny being her father. Out of all the things his words made her want to say, she managed to spit out, "It’s Rose." With one last venomous glance in Jack’s direction, she stalked off in the direction of the cabins, fury radiating from her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Maria Goes up to captian jack* "What will you wAnt me doing I was not part of this crew to do womanly work you Savvy!?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jacky, Cpt. Jack’s Crew Todays morning Jacky woke up from Cpt. Jack singing. The morning was great but when she saw a small boat on the horizen, something told her that this day will full of surprises. Now this... girl... As other members of the crew Jacky was listening for the conversation, but when Captian shouted at them she turned back to her work. Though, she was whispering to herself. " Dear Captian, that should be happened one day. But why today at this wonderful morning?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ :Jack ignored Rose and waited for her to storm back to the cabins before he turned to Mason, and said: "Keep the Pearl on her course to Port Royale....." and left him to sail in his place. something he rarely did.:
:He looked over at Maria: "Make sure Young Rosalina...Rose has something to eat......." He said to her and stalked off to the cabins. He knocked on the door he heard movement in, and opened it without waiting for a reply: "Your mother said I was your father did she?" He said, stepping into the room, looking at Rose. "Is that why you’re out floating around in the middle of the Caribbean in a leakin’ boat?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterby
David blushed, smiled, and waved down to Abigail. He saw Elizabeth smile too, and hoped that no one had seen the scene besides her. "Good day to you, ma’am!" He turned back around, now facing Norrington and Ally Black again. "Well, that was interesting, wasn’t it?" He fervishly hoped that his blushing wasn’t noticeable. He had often thought of Abigail, though not many knew this. She was a good woman, many men knew that, and came from a respectable background as well, unlike himself. . . . he thought about Paul again, hoping beyond hope that he was still out there. . . somewhere. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Letterby
Paul smiled as Snort landed his big loogie on a fellow pirate. "Just like ol’ Snort," Paul muttered, fixing the rigging and looking around for Barbossa. "Where’s the cap?" he asked Snort, who was still on the top of the deck. Snort shrugged, and Paul went back to his work. There were times that he wished he could go back home, and other times when he felt he was supposed to be here, supposed to take part in this crew and in its history. He suddenly thought of his brother David, who was only a few years younger, and how much he wanted to see him again. "But that will never happen," he told himself. "David won’t be as stupid as I was and join the navy." A sudden noise took his attention and he looked on at the spectacle. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maria goes over and sits next to Rose" Your name is rose isn’t it"she takes out a small piece of bread and hands her some rum " the Captain says thats all we’ve got so eat and drink up sweetie." She goes to find something else to do ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton ( Tobbs) -Cap’n Jack’s Crew
Twas a lady, if ye call her that, in her late teens that leaped upon the deck of Capn’ Jack Sparrow. She wore brown trousers and a white, normal, not-at-all-fancy blouse with long sleeves that were rolled up, and a red bandana over her sable brown hair that was in a pony underneath. She strolled up towards Cap’n Sparrow, and just as she was about to speak, three others from across the deck remebered from another voyage and yelled, "Oi! Its young Tobbs here to start a tussle again! She’s a prissy one Cap’n! Thats why we used to call ’er -" But she shot them a fierce glance that shut them right up and turned back to the Captain.
"Ahoy there, Capn’ Sparrow! Could I join your crew? The other ship I traveled on was wrecked by some English fleet, and I happened to get out alive! Call me Tobbs, most do."
Her English accent told of her home, and her glance had some softness in it. She waited for the Capn’s response as she looked around the ship, inspecting it and looking over the crew. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maria looks over the side to see a small but fair english woman " Aye Tobbs how are you still looking a bit shabby I see" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aye, Maria, haven’t seen you for some time! Shabby, yes, tis odd to be all fancy like and ladyish when your a pirate! Cant move about at all! She grinned at her last words and realized there were some aboard who wore dresses. She hoped they wouldnt attempt to dress her up, for pirates couldnt move well in the likes of those! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Yes I do have trouble in corsets as they are a bit too much as well as dressy" she pulls Tobbs aboard. welcome, The captain should be around the corner" she points to the other side and smiles softly ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ay, Tobbs, fancy seein’ you here again." Harper said, leaning on his deck mop. "I dun think you know me, but I knowed you. Me name’s Harper." He half smiled and then got back to work before the bo’sun got on his tail again yelling something about ’lazy bloody Irishman’. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
*Nick stared at Jack and Rose wide-eyed. She jumped as Nick yelled for them to get back to work, not realizing she was staring at them. She walks away and mutters.* That’s interesting. Very interesting. *She pulls her hair back into a ponytail and rolls up her sleeves, and resumes her work.* She nods in thanks to Maria then is barely thrown into another crew member. She listens to his words and smiles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aye, Harper is it? I dont think I know ya, maybe seen ya around once, but I’d fancy learnin’ how you do. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ She looks at him with a questionable glance, waiting for him to explain how he came across knowin her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
*She turns to Mason.* Port Royale? Nice? Aye, I suppose so. Anything is better than France *she thinks* As long as we dun get ourselves hung. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ :Jack pulled an apple from his pocket and tossed it to Rose along with the rum and bread. "once we’re in Port Royale....I’ll take you to get something to eat....have to visit a friend of mine..." He said as a after thought.:
:He passed the cabin floor in front of her, half expecting another good slap or at least a tirade of insults. He frowned a bit: "So where did you sail from?" He asked.: *smiles back at her and says* Yeah as long as we don’t get hung we’ll be alright *thinks how much better Port Royale is than France and smiles at the thoguht of never going back there he then ran up and took the helm to keep the pearl on course but managed another quick smile at Nicky before he turned* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jacky, Cpt. Jack’s crew Seeing Nick not far from herself and hear her muttering, Jacky comes closer to her friend. " Hey, Nick, have you seen that girl?" Jacky askes at quiet voice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Realizing she hadnt given the Capn’ much explaining, she quickly explained her means of getting here. Oi, Capn’ Sparrow, twas a terrible thing indeed! We were off sailing on the WindRunner when a group of the english navy crew spotted our fleet and chased after us until our rudder was being pushed too hard. We attacked ’em, but they were too strong and boarded us. We defended till only four of us were left, and when they took the other three, I vowed they wouldnt take me after I tried still to fight, and went down upon one of our shore boats. I had hoped to reach land that I spotted a few days before, but saw your ship out sailing, and realized it might be Capn’ Sparrow aboard, who I’ve been wanting to meet for some time! That’s how I came here, true as the light of day! What say you? Savvy? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Norrington flashes a smile over his shoulder at the now blushing David, after having been spoken to by that lovely Abigail. He nodded at the boy as he reported out on the armoury. Then when Ally spoke, Patrick took a look over at Dauntless and quietly spoke
Ah good Ally, everything’s in good shape. Hey, I’ve got somethin for ya to do, no one’s on board, the crew’s all drinkin, take a look on the top mast, tell me what ya see wot?? Can’t have any poirate ships sailin into Port Royale today can we?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

:Jack went on deck, hearing the commotion above them, and decided to let Rose eat and said: "I’ll be back in a while...seems we have a visitor...."
:He marched up the steps to the helm, and saw Tobbs standing on the deck as if she owned the ship, which made him laugh:
"Well...if it isn’t Tobbs.....fancy seeing you here all by your onesies....." He said with a short laugh. "We’re sailin’ to Port Royale...you’re welcome to come along o’ course......." He glanced around at his crew, and shook his head laughing. "Seems I’ve taken on a ship full of ladies....." Jack laughed, seeing that most of the crew was indeed women. He was hoping to find a few good men to pull on board once they reached Port Royale. He thought of his newly found daughter and inwardly sighed. Maybe it’d be better to have some ladies on board...he certainly wasn’t sure how to deal with Rose.:
:He turned his eyes towards the horizon. They would be in Port Royale before sunset if the wind stayed with them. He wondered if Will would be happy to see him again. He bet ol’ Norrington wouldn’t be...then again. he’d been such a sport abut letting him go after he took that little tumble from the Fort walls.: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterby~ Port Royale David kept his eyes on Abigail, while also making sure he heard every one of Norrington’s words; however they were quite dim in his ears. "Yessir; that be the plan, sir." He stared at her, wishing he could run his hands through her hair, or hold her hand a bit. A jolt brought him back to the present. He tore his eyes away from the lovely maiden, and looked towards Norrington. "Ay, sir. ’m sorry sir. I was distracted." He gave an apologetic look to Ally Black and Commodore Norrington. "What ’tis it that you want done, sir?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A smile flashed across his face as he came up with an idea Yes David....that lady over there, with Mr. Turner and Ms. Swan...I do believe that she needs an armed escort to accompany her, imagine Ms. Swan’s state if she knew we had let her dear friend go unguarded like that?? Haha, run along son, but be back in one hour sharp!! We have some reporting to do....and I don’t like the air tonight....throws a swift salute then pushes the startled Captain in the direction of Abigail ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Thatcher - Miss Elizabeth’s maid
Abigail turned around several times, discreetly she hoped, and each time she saw that Mr. David Letterby was looking at her! She longed to go over and speak to him but he appeared to be busy talking to the pompous Commodore Norrington, Miss Elizabeth’s old beau. "Would that Commodore ever stop talking?" Abigail wondered to herself. "He certainly is a chatterbox of an officer." Miss Elizabeth and Master Will Turner stopped to look at the ships in the Port Royale harbor so Abigail tarried about pretending to admire the boats as well, all the while keeping a secret lookout for the handsome Mr. Letterby. She wondered how much more of this walking they were going to do. The noon sun was upon them and faint sweat beads were forming on her forehead. She took a handkerchief out of her pocket and quickly wiped the perspiration away. A lady never perspired in public, according to Miss Elizabeth but she could talk since she had a fancy parasol with her! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
*Nic smiles at Mason and turned to Jacky. She mutters.* What girl? Rose? Er...Captain’s..daughter? *She nods.* Dun think she’s too happy with him. Why d’ya reckon she’s come ’ere? *A wisp of her hair came out of the ponytail in the breeze, and she put it behind her ear, glancng in the direction of Port Royale.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterby David, confused for a moment, was pushed by the Commodore to the top of the stairs, where David regain his composure, and walked quickly down the stairs. "All right, Commodore; as you wish, sir," he called as he descended the stairs. He smiled; he was going to be escorting Abigail! When he got to the bottom, he quickly looked around, found Abigail by the docks, and calmly walked towards her, all the while his heart hammering inside his chest. He was so nervous. . . . what would he say? What should he say? He approached her from the front, and said, "Hello, Miss Abigail; the Commodore wishes for me to guard you." He quickly added, "And your Lady and Lord, of course. He said it wouldn’t be right if there were no guard for your protection." He smiled, hoping that he wasn’t sounding too formal or pompous. His insides twisted up, he held out his arm for Abigail, hoping she’d take it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew As Maria gives her food and Jack asks her questions, Rose remains silent, staring straight forward. She nods at his first question, and doesn’t answer the second, looking stonily ahead. She waits until her father leaves the room before bursting into tears, falling face first onto the bed she’d been sitting on. She allowed her fury, disappointment, and sadness to pour out of her in muffled sobs and hopeless tears. Her father apparently had little interest in her, and she didn’t know how she was going to deal with this. Never did she dream this would happen. "Rose, you stupid, stupid idiot!" she sobs into the pillow, fury breaking her words. "Of course he’s going to be mad at you, going off on ’im like that. He’s been your idol so long, why can’t you talk to him at least? Have a decent conversation, express yourself calmly...ne’er been my way, bloody temper!" Rose continues to cry for a few more minutes, sobs shaking her slender form and staining the pillow. After some time, she calms down, wiping her red eyes on the back of her hand. She looks at the bread, apple, and rum before her. The sight of the apple nearly makes her break down again, but she puts it aside to eat later - the first thing she’s ever recieved from her father. She uncorks the bottle of rum and takes a deep drink, delighted to feel her favorite drink scorching her throat again. She then digs into the bread, fiercely hungry. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Miss Elizabeth Swan-Turner (hehe) Elizabeth smiled as William got lost on one of the ships they were checking out. She fans herself from the humidity and turns to see her wonderful servant lass, Abigail blotting her slightly flushed face. She hitched up her skirt and scoots closer to Abigail and whispers "Are you feeling alright, Abigail? You look rather...flushed. Is it the heat?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterby~ Port Royale Naval officer David smiled at the Lady Elizabeth, and gave her a slight bow. "Hello, Miss Turner. I’m glad to see you. As I was telling Abigail before, I’m here as your guard. But only for an hour." He glanced at his watch, then said, "Actually, for 50 minutes now." He turned his attention to Abigail. "Miss Abigail, may I be your escort for the remainder of this trip?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Thatcher--Miss Elizabeth Swann Turner’s Maid
From the corner of her eye, Abigail saw the Mr. Letterby, the handsome military officer approach her. Her heart started beating faster. She felt her face getting red. She didn’t know what to say to him. She heard Miss Elizabeth inquiring if she were alright. "Yes miss, I do feel fine...tis the warm weather ’as all." Mr. Letterby was by her side as soon as she finished responding. She listened politely as he mentioned to Miss Elizabeth that the Commodore had asked him to guard Miss Elizabeth and Abigail. She took his arm, smiled up at him. He looked so dashingly handsome with that tall frame, dark blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. "Why, we make a handsome couple!" she thought to herself.

Thank ya Capn’! A crew of ladies, eh? And a daughter on board! Whatcha gotton yourself into, Capn’? *grins* I’ll be watchin the waters as we travel towards the port!
*She nods her head, smiles once more, than starts climbin’ up and takes out her spyglass* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sarah Fleming-Port Royale(Elizabeth’s Friend) *Sarah stands next to Elizabeth, also fanning herself. She sees Abigail, Elizabeth’s maid, walk up to Elizabeth looking slightly flushed.* Why Abigail? Are you OK? Today is hot. Sometimes I wish I was still a young lass and could jump in the water and not be looked down on. *She laughs a bit than slightly chokes. She quickly regains her breath. Blasted corset.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jacky, Cpt. Jack’s crew Jacky nods her head." Why did she come, I wonder? If I had my father alive and knew that he left me I would never do that! Maybe, she’s a lonely one. Though how Captian will treat her?Sure that he didn’t expect her anyway." She turns to the Port Royale dirrection." And now we should go to that city because of she!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Letterby~ Port Royale Naval officer David was estatic. Miss Abigail’s arm was in his! And he hadn’t acted like a fool! He smiled at her, noticing how beautiful her dark hair was, and how dark her eyes were. She is so beautiful, he thought, still staring at her. He hoped that Mr. Turner would find his way out again. Or David would have to go and find him; David knew these ships like the back of his hand. But he didn’t want to leave, for he was enjoying Abigail’s company and so hoped the man returned; and soon. "So how are you, Miss Elizabeth? How’s Will?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Elizabeth’s eyes sparkles as she sees Abigail flush as Mr. Letterby approach and take her arm. Hmm...I wonder, she thinks to herself, smiling brightly and curtseying slighty to the officer. "Thank you for your guard, Leutienent." Elizabeth, smiles and gently nudges her friend Sarah, making the young woman,look on with a stifled giggle. "It seems that Miss Abigail here is rather warm...the heat is getting to her. David..please, be a darling and take her into the shade? Perhaps...buy her a drink?" Elizabeth reaches into her handbag and pulls out a few shillings, handing them to the officer with a wink. "I’m fine..I’ll take care of Will...If he doesn’t come about in a little while, I shall be going in after him." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ally Black-Port Royale Officer *Vana smirked as she watched David practically fall over himself at the thought of getting to walk with that girl, and she had to try very hard to hold back her laughter. She had no time to worry about love and romance. Her job was all that mattered right now. She had to make a good living so that she could help support her aunt. She nodded as she heard the Commodore’s orders and walked away towards the Dauntless. She made her way on board and climbed up the mast ladder to the crow’s nest, where she took her looking glass and looked out across the ocean. Far in the distance, she could see what appeared to be a rather large ship, but she could not yet see what colors it flew* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Hides her grin behind her fan until Abigail and Mr. Letterby are out of site then smiles at Elizabeth.* Oh Lizzy, I think Abigail fancies David don’t you? Oh that’s so cute! I wish I had a man to look after me! Men don’t get much better than Will though, you are lucky! *She smiles.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby~Port Royale Naval officer David looked embarrassed for a moment, then gladly accepted the shillings with a nod, and took Abigail out of the sun. "So, Miss Abigail, what would you like to drink?" David asked, smiling at her, and wishing that he could know more about her. They had talked briefly when Miss Turner was up at the fort, but they never had real discussions. He had liked her ever since he first laid eyes on her, and he hoped that they could continue meeting each other. He noticed that Miss Turner and Sarah, her other aid, were looking at them and smiling. He waved at them, then turned back to Abigail. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Norrington smiled brightly as he saw the young captain with the young maiden. Ah, to be in love again...just then he caught site of Elizabeth, and Turner was nowhere to be seen....emotions began rising inside him "She’s all alone, take her back!!" "No you fool, she was never yours to begin with!" "Sweep her off her feet like that rogue never could" "Oh!..Leave off...he’s the one for her, I never was"
Silencing the voices inside him, Norrington began to slowly stride over to Elizabeth...closer...his plams were sweating...closer...his heart began beating...closer....he could hear her speak to him....say something you dolt!
"Well hello m’lady Elizabeth, foine weather we ah ’aving today wot?".....said Norrington...in perfect Irish dialect!!...quite embarrassed, he turned and was not sure what to do..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mason Dupont/ Jack’s crew *Mason stands at the helm keeping the Pearl on course, gradually they get closer and he yells to Jack* Captain we’re coming up on the port *looks back at the sea they’re leaving behind and is slightly saddened but knows they will be back out soon enough, and smiles at the thought* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ally Black-Port Royale Officer *Ally took the looking glass from her eye and looked about for Commodore Norrington. She saw him at a distance standing beside Elizabeth Swan, and Ally wondered why it was that so many men fancied her. Sure, she was beautiful, but could she sail a ship? She sure didn’t think so. As Ally watched the Commodore, it seemed to her that Norrington was embarassed about something, and so she did not hesitate to call out to him.* Excuse me, Commodore! I think you may want to have a look at something up here! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Captain Barbossa *The wooden doors to the Captain’s Hold burst open, and Barbossa strides onto the deck off the DYING SUN. He’s wearing a long, dark blue coat, that flaps at his ankles in the strong breeze, and a wide-brimmed hat shields his eyes from the blaring sun. He stares out over the water, and smiles. They were nearing the town of PORT ROYAL, he could feel it. Yes, feel it. After ten years of leading a cursed and miserable existence, with no sense of taste, or touch, or even pleasure, he could finally feel things again. He was like a new man, stronger, smarter, and more deadly than ever before. It had taken him months to develop some explaination for all of this, some reason why he had been brought back from Hell after Jack Sparrow had killed him. It wasn’t until after his crew found him, starving and mad, on Ilsa Muerta, that he discovered the truth. When he had first taken the Aztec coin eleven years before, he had unknowingly made a compact to carry on Cortez’s bloody work, and slaughter all those who resisted him. The one who could conquer all his enemies, and then offer their blood to the heathen Gods as a sacrifice, would obtain immortality! And since he had not fulfilled his compact in his last life, his soul had been sent back to finish his work. And now he was on his way to PORT ROYAL, where the oblivious ELIZABETH TURNER and her father, GOVERNOR SWANN, would be the first victims in his quest for power.* "Snort!! Reel out the cannons! We’ll be dockin’ soon...." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’sCrew *Nic nods and looks towards the Port.* Almost there...Yes, I do wonder why she has come. Perhaps she didn’t know her father is still sailing on this ship? I’m not entirely sure how Cap’n’ll treat ’er. Didn’t seem as if he knew she existed. *She chuckles a bit.* That doesn’t surprise me either. No, somehow I think we were coming ’ere anyway. *Nic shrugs* Makes no differnce to me.
*Nic turns and walks to the cabins to find Rose there eating.* ’Ello. Hungry are ya? If ye don’t mind me asking, where’d you get that boat anyway? And how’d you come by that leak? *She sits down.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Thatcher--Mrs. Elizabeth Swann Turner’s maid
After a quick curtsey to Miss Elizabeth, Abigail walked happily with the handsome naval officer to a shady spot near the wharf. It felt good to be away from direct sunlight. The afternoon sun was at its zenith and her fair skin burned easily in this tropical setting. Abigail’s mind raced to think of suitable, interesting conversation topics but her knowledge of the world was quite limited given her station in life. Instead, she smiled, what she hoped was, a charming smile at the naval officer and let him do the talking instead. He did have such nice voice, she thought. She could listen to him for a long time. She saw him looking at her, asking a question, something about drinks. "Mr. Lettelby, I believe I shall have a cool drink of lemonade...The lemons from Port Royale are said to be among some of the best in the world." This little tidbit was something she gathered in a conversation between Miss Elizabeth and Master Turner and luckily she had stored this knowledge away to be used on a future occasion. Abigail pointed to a vendor standing next to the wharf, "Sir..I see a merchant over there selling beverages...perhaps he has lemonade." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs) Jack’s Crew
The port seemed to be gettin’ closer, so she grabbed a rope and swung down upon the deck, getting ready to help with lowering the anchor. She heard Mason’s call and watched as they left the deep blue sea. She sighed, then smiled slightly, wishing that their stop would be anywhere but here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Snort- Crew of the Damned Aye Cap’n. He hopped down and began his work. The sun blazed onto his head bald. How he hated it, he wished night would be near soon. He looked out and saw Port Royal in the distance. He remembered the last time they were there. What a mascarade it was. He readied the cannons and grinned, showing his rotting teeth, at the thought of a soon to be immortality. Aye Paul, get over ere and give me a and at this ere cannon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maria Maharet- Jacks Crew Come on Tobbs stop daydreaming and lower it more. the anchor was set and the crew unloading of the boat. she sees a man with a small boy coming. he asks for their names and the pay for baording the boat.Names...? Rent...? you’ll have to talk to our captai n about that. Jack Spaarow!. she yells as loud as she could. She gives the man a confused look and goes to help the crew. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow- Jack’s Crew
:Climbing the stiars he looked down att he Docks of Port Royael, glad to see they had made excellent time. It was a hour before sunset, but the sky was already turning the golden colors of that lovely hour and he grinned. His crew, odd by normal standards carried out their work in a way that made him grin. He was glad to be a pirate. Jack turned his attention to the man asking for their name and the rent. Reaching into his pockets he took out a small purse with a few gold coins in it:
"Forget the name matie..." He called. "And keep the gold." The man looked at the purse, shook it and smiled. "Welcome to Port Royale Mr. Smith...." He said. Jack grinned and walked up the deck. His thoughts were back on his new daughter and he was at a lose for how to deal with her as of now. He went down to her cabin to find her just getting over what appeared to be a crying fit and he blinked a bit startled:
:He supposed he did owe her at the very least...if she was telling the truth...a bit of comfort from him. She was after all...alone from what he knew:
"We’re just now landing in Port Royale..." He said with a uncomon amount of soberness. "Come ahore with me...we’ll talk this over and get you some things you might be wantin..." He said with a half smile. He unwrapped a white hankerchief from his wrist and handed it to her, and gestured to her eyes, indicating he wanted her to stop crying.:
"Come on deck in a few minutes...." He said and was gone once more to check on the crew: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs) Jack’s Crew
Tobbs jumped, startled as Maria spoke for her to rush along, so she helped lower the anchor and was soon on the deck, helping the others unload things. She watched as Cap’n Sparrow strode out of the cabin, a look of confusion on his face. She dearly wanted to say something, but knew not what would comfort him, so instead she smiled as he approached.
Cap’n, we almost have the things unloaded, the rest should be a easy bit. Shall I prepare a list of things we might need for settin out?
She spots something in the distance, like a glint of the sun on the sea, but decides it must’ve been a mere reflection. She turns back to her Cap’n, though a new worried tension seems to show in her eyes. Something is amiss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
:Jack turned to Tobbs after a minute. His mind that had been fully on his daughter a moment ago, now snapped back to attention. Something was amiss. Something in the air. He peered up at the sky. A chilly under current was running in the balmy wind. A death like chill he hadn’t felt since......He looked out to sea, half expecting to see a ship trailing fog and darkness behind it. But nothing was there, yet.:
"A storm is coming...." He said vaguly to Tobbs. "and some company I’m guessin’...." He considered her question a moment. "I want you to find Rose some proper clothes.....I’ve got a feelin’ she’ll be with us a while..." He said. "And make sure someone fixes a room below for her....." Then he began a list of things he wanted for his crew.:
"Food...Rum...water....and each of you go ashore and get what you’ll be needin’.....no stealin’" He added. Port Royale...out of respect for Will Turner and Elizabeth was the one town Jack wouldn’t steal from anymore. Well...nothing big.:

Tobbs nodded her head and looked up at the sky, then grimaced at the thought of buying proper clothes. She had been a pirate since she was young enough to walk, so she had never really worn a dress, only once, but that turned out to be a mess...but she agreed she’d find some while she went around for the other supplies. She nodded once more to her cap’n then was off, walking towards Port Royale’s general store. She passed the other ports and looked upon the other ships, then recognized some of Port Royale’s soldiers with a lady and a gentleman with them. She briskly turned and opened the door, walking up to the clerk. She began to list off what would be needed, then asked where some lady clothes would be. He just stared at her.
"For...for you young miss? Well, it be a whole new outlook on your wardrobe, eh? Going from a sea sailor to a young lady?" Just tell me where to get ’em and I’ll come back for our supplies!
She glared at him for a second before he told her where it was, then she was off to get the clothes. She succeded in getting some very nice garments, satin and silky, and somewhat wondered what it would be like to be a governess, strolling about the streets in a lovely gown. But she shook the thought away and headed for the general store once again, telling one of the crew members to help with Rose’s room as she passed ’em. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Captain Barbossa *Barbossa stepped up to the helm and ran his fingers along the wheel. The Dying Sun, while still a fearsome sight on the open seas, was nothing compared to the granduer of the Black Pearl. Barbossa scowled at the thought of Jack Sparrow once again at her helm, the undeserving, sorry excuse for a pirate that he was.* "Sparrow..." *Barbossa hissed. He would get his revenge on that man if it was the last thing he ever did! Barbossa took out his telescope and focused straight ahead to the horizon. He could see PORT ROYAL clearly now, and all of the ships at the dock. Suddenly, his breath caught, and his mouth dropped open slightly.* "Snort! Get ov’r ’ere! Look there, just to the left o’ the dock...and tell me me eyes ain’t decievin’ me...is that the Pearl?!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
:Sitting in the Crows Nest, Jack stared out toSea. Something was coming and he didn’t like it. His instincts had never let him down before. He watched Tobbs come back to the ship with the garments and made a mental note to get something for Tobbs later.:
:He had given each crew member a small amount of gold...which would keep them each outfitted very well for the voyage. and he had dismissed them in pairs, telling each to report back in a couple of hours. he looked at the docks and grinned. The Black Pearl was back in Port Royale...only this time not hostile. He wondered if Will or Elizabeth would recognize the black sails in the sunset.:
:Softly and to himself, Jack began singing once more; "We’re rascals, scoundrels, villians, and knaves, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho. We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho! Yo ho yo ho, a pirates life for me......." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tobbs went below and handed the garments to Rose, asking her to follow to one of the cabins that was fixed up for her. She was suprised to see that there was at least some resemblance, and as she bid her farewell she made sure she didnt need anything else.
She walked back on the deck and went over to make sure the stores were being handled carefully, then sat at the tip of the ship and began to sharpen her sword, checking to make sure she had her lucky pistol. She heard the soft song begin from the cap’n, and she stirred as she listened to its familiarity. She smiled as she watched the capain so deep in thought, and without realizing it, she started to hum the tune along with the Cap’n, putting the sword away and leaning her head against the railing and looking out over the sea.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
:Looking down at Tobbs he gave her a nod of thanks, wondering if Rose would even wear the dresses. She looked like she took more after his style, not her mothers. He grinned to himself, and finished off his singing. Wait until Elizabeth found out she had sucessfully brain waaaaaaaaashed his crew into singing that song too. Wel...a promise was a promise. and he had promised he’d teach that song to his crew one day.....:
:With a vague wave of thanks towards Tobbs he stood up and looked at the Fort of port Royale. He wondered what ol’ Norrington was doing these days.: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs)
Tobbs smiled as the Cap’n nodded, stood, and looked towards the port. He seemed somewhat sad in a sense. She was about to stand and approach him when she saw the glint once more. Slowly, she stood up and took out her spyglass. The shape had come closer, but still wasn’t clearly visible. She figured it was probably a normal ship that was coming in, but something was different about it. She had been standing there for a while when the sun suddenly was hidden and the glint vanished. It was indeed a ship, and it seemed to carry a heavy fog with it. She stared in shock as it got closer, and called to the captain, a little nervous by the sound of her voice.
Cap’n, perhaps, perhaps you should come take a look at this...

Jack Sparrow.
:Looking down he grabbed a rope and slid down next to Tobbs, and peered out to sea, without the spy glass. He felt that chill in the air grow stronger and when he looked through the spyglass his face grew sober:
"It’s the curse sailin’ on that ship..." he said. "Fools must have found the gold....." He did not know Barbossa was alive...nor did he think it was the same crew. In fact...he didn’t know a lot of things, other then he guessed that some pirates had found the gold and now carried that curse with them:
:He handed the spyglass back to Tobbs.: "I don’t like the way this is lookin’...." He stood thinking a bit. "I best warn Norrington.....no...better warn Will......" He said and made to leave the ship. "I’ll be back shortly...." He said and went down to the cabins to explain to Rose why he was going. Maybe she’d want to come with him: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs)
Tobbs didnt like the likes of the ship, but when the Cap’n spoke of it, a chill ran down her spine. She nodded her head and watched as he went below, so she stood above the deck and guarded all she could, telling the other crew members that hadnt gone to one of the taverns to keep a look out, but not to be worried. She hid the nervousness and walked bodly about the ship, sometimes gazing through the spyglass, watching the ship get nearer. She only hoped that that Will she had heard about could do something. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew *Nic still sits in the cabins listening to Rose, and then Jack when he comes in.* Ah, well we’re ’ere. Port Royale is a nice place, Rose. Maybe you’ll like it. *She sees Jack come down once again, sees more of a serious look on his face, she stands.* Cap’n, sir. Would you like me to go on deck? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Captain Barbossa *Barbossa grinned. The Black Pearl, right here before his very eyes!! It was incredible! And if the Pearl was here...that meant Jack wouldn’t be far off... But no. He hadn’t come all the way here to forfeit his second chance. They would stick to the plans - kidnap the girl and her father, and insodoing lure Bootstrap’s son after them in the process. Perhaps, if he was really here, than Sparrow would come along as well.* " Like killin’ two birds wit one stone...." *He said.* *Less than an hour later, half the crew of the Dying Sun was swimming up to the shores of Port Royal. The others had stayed behind on the ship, and were rapidly firing cannon balls into the city. Barbossa himself stepped up onto the pier and drew his blade, looking around at the chaos that had already begun.* "It does me black ’eart good to be back," *He said with a sneer, before he began to make his way toward the Governor’s mansion...* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jacky, Cpt. Jack’s crew. As Nick walked to the cabin to talk to Rose, Jacky was standing a bit on the ship watching to the ocean that they left far back. Her heart bested faster than always and she couldn’t find any reason why. Maybe she just didn’t want to go to Por Royale... When they came to the port and started to unload their things. She stops for a moment to take a short break from her job. Jacky turns to the ocean and a strange feeling came to the pirate’s heart. Something was coming, closer and closer. Jacky came back to her work and mattered to herself " I knew, something will happen after that girl came... New woman on the ship..." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s crew Rose smiled at Nic. "It’s something of a long story, mate," she says. "To make it short, I stole it and forgot to check it for leaks. It showed up shortly afore I saw your ship. Good thing it was nearby." She looks up in surprise as Jack comes in and hands her a handkerchief. She almost starts crying again at the sight of it, but uses it to wipe her eyes thoughroughly. After some time, she was surprised to see Tobbs coming towards her with some dresses. She blinked at them - she’d rarely worn dresses before - but quickly realized that no one would recognize her in a dress. Smiling and thanking the other pirate, she went to change into a dark red one with a low neckline and draping sleeves. She didn’t wear a corset - never understood how you could breathe in the bloody things. Rose brushed out her long, dark hair and looked at herself in the mirror. There were still tangles in her braids, and she still wasn’t too clean...the gold medallion glittered on the exposed chain. She wasn’t anything special, and she’d never be, but she did feel like more of a lady in the dress...like a credit to her mother. She smiled...no one would definitely recognize her in this. She turned again as Jack came in and managed a smile. "You’ve got to stop sneaking up on me like that, savvy?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SASHA AKA SARA TURNER/JACKS CREW *Sasha hadn’t realized that they where goin to port royal, her old home. She could see her brothers wife, and captain Norrington on the dock. What exactly was that man up to? She slipped off to get some supplies before the storm, and whatever else it was carrying, hit. * *Sasha sliped back onto the ship, arms full of supplies. She went to her quarters and threw them on her bed. She returned to the deak and started work again while singing,* "We’re rascals, scoundrels, villians, and knaves, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho. We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs, Drink up, me hearties, yo ho! Yo ho yo ho, a pirates life for me....... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Will Turner I can’t believe it! he said to himself. Getting lost on that boat. I hope Elizabeth doesn’t make too much fun of me. Will walks down off of one of the rather large boats and notices Elizabeth sitting nearby. He picked some flowers out of a nearby garden when she is not looking and walks over to her casually as if he did nothing stupid. "So," he said, handing her the flowers. "Did you miss me? I went to get you some flowers, I hope I wasn’t too long." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Mason watches out and sees the port being attacked and thinks to himself that at first he is dreaming but realises it’s actually happening and yells up to Jack* Captain what should we do? *he then looks back at the port and wonders what the captain will want to do and awaits an answer still standing at the helm* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Patrick Norrington
Norrington was glad that Ally had called him away from Elizabeth, not only did he make a fool of himself, he had risked his and his family’s reputation all in one fatal breath. That’s okay though, it’s all over now he though. He strode upon the Dauntless and yelled up... Ahoy there, wot seems to be the matter?? Seeing the sight he saw, Norrington snatched a spyglass from the cabin and looked out to sea.....The Black Pearl...she was coming.... *sometime later* The Pearl had anchored and some of the men were coming aboard. Sparrow was still onboard....Norrington made it a point to go speak with the long gone captain...but before he could he heard a shout from the mast... Commodore...there’s another ship!! Looking out into the sea yet again, another ship could be seen bearing full speed upon the Black Pearl’s wake...it didn’t look friendly Ahem, Lettelby....to me...NOW!!! *some more sometime later* The fighting was not going good, once again, the pirates had caught the town at almost off guard. Their ruthless tactics and heavy firepower were bombarding the fort...Norrington was roaring commands above the head of it You there, get me some more cannonballs....ah, Lettelby, find me Will Turner and Ms. Swan....I need them here two minutes ago, snap to it soldier! Yes, Black, take a small crew and prepare the Dauntless to sail....I want to catch these pirates if they try to sneak away from me this time!! DO it!! In the meanwhile, Norrington was fighting hand to hand in the street....all the while looking for Jack Sparrow...maybe he knew something about this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs)
Tobbs had been real uneasy, the Captain seemed to be still below deck with the Miss Rose, and the other crew members were beginning to fidget. She felt a chill start from her mouth to her feet, and suddenly, she collapsed onto the floor unconscious. She was like so for many minutes, but she waked slowly, then suddenly shouted to the those around her and on the deck.
They’re here! Arm yourself! Prepare to fight! And where in blazes is the Cap’n!?!?
She began to get dizzy again, but she wobbled up and leaned against the boards, making sure she had her weapons before she went off in search for this Will Turner. He apparently had the answer to this all.
She ran from the deck and towards the place she saw Port Royale’s soldiers and the lady and the gentleman. She spotted both of them and slid to a stop, hoping that the Ca’n was not too far behind. *Ally saluted the Commodore quickly after hearing his orders and yelled to the soldiers that were gathered near her.* "You there!" she shouted as the soldiers turned toawrds her. "To me! We must ready the Dauntless. Those evil pirates shall not escape us again! *Ally took off at a run towards the Dauntless with the small group of soldiers following closely behind her. When they had all boarded the ship, Ally began barking out commands as fast as she could. "You, make sure that no one unwelcome boards this ship! You, prepare the canons and make sure she have enough ammuntion! You two there! Prepare the main sail! We must be ready if the Commodore commands us to sail! *Ally ordered a few more men to stand at the side of the ship to cut their ropes in case they needed to sail off quickly. She watched the action at the fort, and she hoped that her fellow soldiers could hold off those pirates. She could no longer see the Commodore, but she was sure that he had everything under control.* Victoria Brighton (Tobbs)
She had to catch her breath before she could speak, but she slowly succeeded in doing so, and tried to speak. She saw the commodore not to far off, and realized those he was fighting looked vaguely familiar. She also saw the other soldiers march off to the dauntless, and began to worry about te Pearl. But she had to tell them before she returned to the ship. She shot a pirate from the back before it reached the couple, then shot another that was trying to attack the Captain. She still was a bit dazed, but she was able to utter a few words before she had to stop, give Will an extra sword she had been carrying, then defend them while she continued to speak.
Jack Sparrow...they have come... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ End of The Adventure Begins ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Start of Attack on Port Royal ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow-
:When the canon fire began he had been down stairs in the cabins with Rose. "You stay here..." He said, knowing full well that if she was anything like him, she’d be up in a minute running after him. In a minute he was up on deck and shouting orders, sword out and staring out over Port Royale. Canon balls rained down on the village that had only recently recovered from the last attack launched not more then a year ago. Only this time the terror wasn’t raining down from the Black Pearl.:
:The chill in the air seemed to grow and Jack looked around.: "Barbossa..." He muttered. Turning to his crew he shouted: "Aim all the canons on that ship!" He said, then he went and grabbed Tobbs: "Don’t let them take the Pearl!" He said, and made for the Docks. "I’ll find Will!"
:Grabbing the nearest rope he swung off the deck and to the docks, running past screaming women, men firing rifles and the general chaos of it all, towards the Fort to find Will. Or Norrington. Why on earth he was hoping to find Norrington he wasn’t sure. But he had a vague idea he might need his help soon. : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mason Dupont- Jack’s Crew *Mason runs down the stairs to the nearest cannon and aims it towards Barbossa’s ship and quickly fires it off missing slightly he reloads as fast sa possible and takes aim once more firing again it is clipped on the bow he then runs to another cannon and helps one of the other crewman reload* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby David was just settling down with Miss Abigail when the Commodore called him from his post. David saw the Black Pearl, and also another boat anchored off the shore. (Had to compensate; sorry) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Lettleby Paul charged with the rest of them up the shore of Port Royale and started attacking anyone and everyone he could see, except for Elizabeth, whom he tried getting closer and closer to so he could grab her and run back to the ship. Finally, he was in range for a desperate grab, and he took it, swinging her over his shoulder and lugging her back to one of the boats. Paul made sure that Will wasn’t in sight so he couldn’t see what was really happening, then gagged Elizabeth and bound her. He managed to kill a few more officers, and shouted for the dim-wits that were fellow pirates to shove off. He gave one more glance around the port, then spotted someone who looked vaguely familiar. He squinted, then cursed under his breath. It was his brother! He had joined the navy! Paul made sure that David hadn’t seen him, then hopped into a boat, and pushed off for the Dying Sun. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby David stood his ground, making sure Abigail was safe first, then helping Commodore Norrington and Black head off the pirate crew. David worked fast, with a pistol in one hand, and a sword in the other. He knew how to use both with deadly aim, and cut down many men, who just got right back up and kept attacking. What are these things? he thought, looking at the anchored ship. He saw the words "Dying Sun" on the side and looked at the maurading band. In an instant, he realized, Barbossa’s crew! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow-
:What a good ol fashion brawl this was turning out to be. Sword out and ready he fought back a pirate or two, but not before one of them recognized him:
"Sparrow?" He said, as if unsure what he was seeing. Jack nodded: "That’s right!" And kicked him into the water. "Where are you Barbossa?" He wondered, more importantly, how on Earth was he here...now? He reached the Fort in time to take in the sight of Norrington shouting orders, before a sword was coming his way. It was a young officer, whom Jack was sure was only trying to defend his Captain and his fellows:
"Easy mate..." Jack said, knocking the sword out of his hands. "I’m Captain Jack Sparrow...." This only seemed to alarm the young man more and he looked ready to yell. With a single movement Jack knocked the man out, thinking maybe it was better if he sat this one out anyway:
:But not he’d lost track of Norringotn and there was no sign of Will or Elizabeth. Why couldn’t these people stay in one place?: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby David had charged another man, whom he thought was a cursed pirate, and when he announced himself as Jack Sparrow, David had charged him even more in a fury for he did not like Sparrow much. But Sparrow, who was calm unlike David, executed a perfect back-handed blow and knocked David out for good. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicolette DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew *Nic turns abruptly, hearing booming noises outside the cabins.* ’Scuse me. *She says quickly to Rose and runs out. She was caught off guard by the fight. She searches around for her sword, where did I leave it this time? she asks herself. And that’s when a fellow crew member threw a gun at her.* Use this! Noo! I can’t use that! I can’t use guns! *He walks away, not caring and she looks down at it dismayed.* *She runs farther up deck towards the dock and a member of Barbossa’s crew looks at her with an evil glint in his eyes. Nic panics a bit and is far enough to shoot him, so she does. And it ends up hitting a man behind him.* Shoot! *She yells and whacks the man in the stomach. Obviously, he wasn’t expecting it and she jabs him with the butt of the gun and then knocks him out with it. She catches her breath and sees her sword lying on deck. She lunges for it and picks it up, drops the gun and stabs another member with it.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
:He took a moment and sort of half drug half rolled the young man out of the way. "Sorry mate..." he said and got up to join in the fray. Being careful to watch his own neck he shouted: "Commodore?!"
:He couldn’t find Norrington and this worried him a bit. Who was in charge here? Someone had to let them know these pirates couldn’t be killed. They would only leave once they’d gotten what they came for. He looked out ot the Docks proud to see his crew firing away bravely at Barbossa’s ship:
"Good maties...." He said, and went back to look for the Commodore: "Norrington?!" He shouted above the mess. Realizing most of these sailors would fight him before they answered a question he went over tohte shoulder he knocked out and slapped him hard enough to wake him:
"Where’s Norrington?" He asked. "Or Governer Swann?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Lettleby~ Barbossa’s crew Paul now helped with the attack on the Black Pearl, seeing as his main job was done. He grinned at the woman on deck, not holding her gun properly, and as she tried shooting him and missed, he laughed, then oomph! got hit in the stomach, then the head, and he blacked out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby~ Naval officer David got slapped awake, and rubbed his cheek while groggily saying, "I don’t know. I didn’t follow orders; I was trying to protect Abigail." He was only half-awake, and couldn’t really see who was talking to him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
"Pride of the Royal Nazy you are mate..." He grumbled and stood up. "Well ,when you come to tell Norrington that Barbossa is alive...."
:He shoved the officer off to one side, out of the way, in time to deflect another oncoming attack from one of Barbossa’s men. With a bit of luck he sent him tumbling down the stairs and out of the way:
"Commodore?" He shouted again, hoping he’d get a response:

David Lettleby~ Port Royale Naval officer David slumped to the ground, groaned, then rolled over onto his back. He lay there for a little bit, sat up, shook his head, and opened his eyes. As soon as he saw Sparrow’s back, he lunged for it, not able to hear what he was shouting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew Rose snorted as Jack left her cabin. "And miss all the action? I think not." She quickly looked for her old clothes. Finding them, she rolled up her sleeves and strapped sheathed daggers on the inside of both arms. She then stuffed several pistols into her belt, and grabbed her sword and sheath. She’d barely managed to attach it when she heard cannonfire. She ran outside and leaned over the railing. A ship she didn’t recognize appeared to be attacking Port Royal...and the Black Pearl. She scanned the Pearl’s deck quickly - there appeared to be no sign of her father...though there were several pirates fighting the Pearl’s crew. A small grin passed over Rose’s face. "It’s beginning." Fighting a dress would be hard, but Rose was always up for trying something new. Gritting her teeth, she adjusted her sword, drew it, and ran onto the main deck, trying to get to the cannons. Above the din, she yells, "Anyone know the whereabouts of the Captain?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maria Maharet- Jacks Crew Maria Loads the cannins and fires. she doesn’t hit the officers but the deck above them and crushes them from above. She draws her swored for a sur hit and runs and jumps off the deck. She heads in jacks Direction, almost tripping on her dress. she was not dressded for an attack. "Where is Tobbs? Did Jack find Will yet?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparrow.
:turning in time to see the same officer jump at him he caught him by the shoulders and shoved him to one side:
"Don’t you get it mate? I’m on your side!" He looked towards the Black Pearl in time to see a flash of red leap out onto the deck. "Rose..." He said, and was nearly tackled by another of Barbossa’s men. Taking out a pistol he fired into the man’s stomach and made for his ship, muttering:
"Stay here I say....but of course she doesn’t listen...." He growled. "women....why are they always so stubborn?" He was half proud and half angry at Rose for doing this, but he knew she must be part Sparrow after all.:
:He got to the edge of the Fort walls when someone knocked him in the back. As he fell off the side, he saw one of Barbossa’s men smiling over the walls after him. Jack almost laughed, hed fallen from this exact same place before: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew Rose got to the cannons and helped to load one; she wasn’t prepared for the noise nor the feedback it would get, and was knocked over onto the deck. Annoyed, she pushed her hair out of her eyes, fixing her bandana. Looking up, she noticed someone fall off the walls of the fort...blinking several times, she realized with a sinking feeling that it was Jack. "Blast him, he always seems to be in trouble, doesn’t he?" she mutters to no one in particular. She looks for the nearest crew member. "He does know how to swim, right?" she asks, trying not to seem concerned. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack Sparow.
:hitting the water with a large splash he took a moment and swam to the surface and coughed up a bit of water. The Pearl wasn’t to far of so he began swimming, wondering if there were any undead pirate swimming under him. :
:After what seemed like much to long he grabbed hold of a rope hanging off the side of the Pearl, dodging canon fire and shouting: "Don’t be blastin’ any more holes in my ship!"
:He pulled himself on deck, cursing up a storm and looking around for Rose and his crew who were giving Barbossa one hell of a fight: Then seeing Rose in the process of firing a canon he went over to her, in time to shove her to the ground as a bullet whizzed past her:
:Thought I told you to stay below." He growled. He loaded his gun and shot once over the edge of the deck and looked over at Rose: "Next time stay below!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicoletta DeLoncre~Jack’s Crew
*As the man she stabs, doesn’t die, Nic shouts* The curse?! They’re-the curse is gone I thought! What in the bloody name of- *she got cut off as the man pused her onto the floor. She drops her sword, it was just out of reach, and as she grabbs for it, he put is booted foot on top of her. She groans as he points his sword at her neck.* G’boi, matey. *He says in a sarcastic tone and she gulps, feeling the tip of the sword closer to her skin...* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rose Glassman ~ Jack’s Crew Rose suddenly felt herself crash to the ground again, and heard a bullet whizz over her head. She turned over to see Jack standing in front of her, shooting. She gets to her feet, brushes herself off, pulls the pistol from her belt, and loads it. "Well, y’see, as you haven’t accepted being my father yet, and I’m not technichally a member of this crew..." She aims her gun and shoots at a cursed pirate as she talks. "You’ve no real authority over me. Savvy?" She gives a Jack-esque grin at her father, then blows off the smoke from the top of her gun. "So what’s so important on this ’ere dock?" Rose calmly listens to Jack explain that he has friends here that he needs to warn of the attack. As she listens, she brings her other gun out into her other hand. "Will Turner, you say? And Elizabeth Swann? Well, don’t worry ’bout it. I’ll go onshore and warn ’em for you." Deaf to Jack’s protests, Rose makes her way across the deck and flips herself onto the dock. Once there, she sets off a run, pushing her way through battles, to find this Will Turner. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Lettleby David, after the last encounter with Sparrow, is knocked unconscious for the duration of the fight. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Lettleby~ Barbossa’s Crew Paul was shaken awake, and a fellow comrade yelled at him. "Paul! Get up! We’ve got summore bodies to kill!" He shook his head, now fully awake, and took up a sword, with two guns in the holsters on his hips. A hand knife was hidden in his boot, but he only used that for extra-special situations. Paul climbed aboard the Black Pearl and started joining in the fighting upon the deck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ally Black-Port Royale Officer *While watching the intense fighting from the deck of the Dauntless, Ally catches sight of her fellow officer David Lettleby. She watches as he makes a stab at what seems to be one of the enemy pirates, but as she looks closer, she sees in shock that it is Captain Jack Sparrow. Her eyes grow wide as she sees Jack knock David unconscious to the ground. The ruthless pirates are fighting all about him, and Ally knows that he may die if someone does not help him. She yells to one of the men onboard the Dauntless to take control of the ship until she returns. Running quickly towards the side of the ship, she grabs a rope and swings down to the docks, running towards the place where earlier she had seen David fall. When she found him, she checked to see if he was still alive, which he was, and she did her best to stand him up. Although she was strong, David was a full grown man, and was too much for her to carry. She put one of his arms around her shoulder and did her best to drag him toawrd the Dauntless and safety.* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria Brighton (Tobbs) (ooc:sorry, was out for the day)
Tobbs nodded her head at her Cap’n’s order and ran to the Pearl. She leaped aboard and yelled to every crew member to fire upon the bloody ship that was hittin the cuty.
Man the cannons! The rest of ye, be on board defendeing yer ship! Did ya here me! MOVE!!!!
She watched as some scuttled off and went below just to make surre they were loading the cannons and firing, then raced aboard and drew her sword. They wouldn’t take the Pearl. Her Cap’n had commanded it, and if they wanted it, they’d have to go through her.
The first load of the cursed crew came on deck, and Tobbs used her pistol to do the firin. She leaped about and swung upon a large rope to knock off some of the curseds’ heads, then the sword play began. She was known as one of the best fighters, especially with a sword, and had earned her name. As she was fightin’, one of the cursed looked up and spoke just before she hit him hard with her elbow.
"Aye, maties, isn’t that TopSword Tobbs? Here on our ship, once again, I should say...
He gave out a wicked laugh just as she thrust her sword in him, then watched him fall to the ground. Her hair was loose and a single strand hung loose;she was hot and sweaty, and angry all this had gone on...But still, through everything, she remembered...
She gave a cry of shock as she felt someone shove against her, and turned to deal with them. she couldn’t think at a time like this, or rather, she didn’t want to. They wouldnt take the ship back. They’d have to kill her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
