(ooc- Meep! so much catching up! ok..um..if what im about to do doesnt work, just like edit my post or something, because I cant get on for the rest of day after I post here.)
Saber had helped in the fight, when she had noticed that Barbossa was gone. She saw the broken glass and bounded out the window knowing that Barbossa had left that way. She followed a small trail off blood and knew he was wounded. She saw far ahead a girl pirate helping Barbossa along. Quietly she followed them and when they went aboard the ship she dove into the water. Climbing a rope that was hanging she managed to secure her self to the side of the ship out of the water but you couldnt see her unless you looked in the right spot. There she hung waiting for a good time to go up on deck.
Kat sat staring blankly at the wall. She had been all wrong. Saber had been in trouble, and now Jack was hurt....she didnit quite know what to make of it. Earlier she had looked at Jack and knew right away that he had been overdosed with laudanum. She didnt even need a second look. "If only instead of leaving the ship I had gone to see him." she moaned to herself. Kat was a poisoner, and she could tell the side effects of poison better than ayn doctor or healer. She couldnt treat it, but she knew when someone had been poisond and what type of poison was used. She now knew what had happend to Saber, and that she was again free. But once again she was missing. However at this time it was too dangerous for anyone to really go out, so she stayed put, and tried to stay ot of the way of those who knew what to do.

Post by Emma Hawkins/Rick MacKinnon on Sept 15, 2003 10:54:14 GMT -5
Emma stood in the doorway,watching Jack and Tobbs.It nearly broke her heart;she could see how much Tobbs cared about Jack,and he was barely able to recognize her as non-threatening.She watched as he turned away,shaking her head sadly.
She knew there was very little she could do to help.What they were currently doing-having those closest to him around-was more likely to evoke memories and bring him back than anything she could do.After all,she'd known Jack perhaps an hour before this whole incident with Clarion began.She leaned on the doorframe,feeling as utterly useless as she had trying to sail with an injured arm(which,thankfully,had mostly healed now,and she was beginning to be able to fight with it again.)
Rick walked up silently behind Emma.He knew what she was thinking,watching Jack in his madness.It hurt him as well-he was perhaps the only one present even less useful at the moment.At least Emma had some skills with healing.And for whatever short amount of time,she had been in his company before his abduction.He placed his hand gently on his shoulder with a sympathetic smile.
"Is there anything you hate more than feeling useless,Emma?"
She smiled back up at him,but sadness was still in her eyes.Then she glanced back at the pair inside the room.
"I'll be right back..."
Emma went downstairs to the kitchen.She pulled out her flask-it was empty.She had given it to Jack back in the prison,and it had been returned to her when he was brought back to the Turner house.For a moment,she thought of making tea-said to help healing,soothe nerves and all that-but changed her mind.Under the counter,she found what she needed-a bottle of rum,no doubt purchased by one of the other pirates.
She came back up the stairs,carrying a tray with two glasses and the bottle of rum.She approached Tobbs,setting the tray down."Thought ye might be thirsty,spendin' all that time in here..."She nodded,and left the room,going to stand by the great window overlooking the ocean once more.

*As the sun set on the horizon Will walked outside and stood on the front porch, watching the waters blaze orange as the sun sank. He sighed and shuffled back inside when the aroma of a fresh cooked dinner surrounded him. He again made up a plate for Jack and Tobbs.* I hope he eats it this time. He needs to eat, I don't want him to get any worse. *Will said, glancing at Elizabeth. She nodded her head softly and set the twins in their places and Will headed upstairs. He saw Emma and Rick standing in the doorway and he gave them a half-hearted smile.* Dinners downstairs if you want any. *He said, then peeked inside, and noticed Jack and Tobbs standing there. He wasn't sure whether it was okay to interupt them or not but after a few moments decided to just slip in. He again handed Tobbs her plate then just held the other out to Jack. He half smiled when he noticed a couple people had brought up some rum for him.* I brought you dinner Jack, incase you're hungry. And it looks like you have pleanty of rum to wash it down with. *Will said, giving him a full smile. Then he took another step closer to Jack, stopped, and waited.*

:Jack looked at Will a moment, then gave him a extremly faint version of his old chesire cat grin. But it disappeared in a instant, but he looked at the plate of food next:
:He stared at it a bit...hesitated then took it from Will. Then he put it down next to the bed, on a table, then nodded, if if to say he'd eat later. He considered Will himself a while...still trying to figure him out:
:Finally.....something behind his eyes sparkled a second. He looked at Will, now, acknowledging him as a person he might know. He opened his mouth and stopped then looked a bit puzzled, before finally whispering out a single worded question:
"Eunuch?"
:Jack's face split into a grin, as he looked at Will. Yup......he'd figured out this person's name:

*Tobbs saw something flicker yet again in Jack's eyes. So he remembered, or was trying to...that was good enough for her. When he looked at her for help, she wanted to speak, but couldn't, twas like she suddenly went mute.*
*When he turned, she instinctively placed her hand on his shoulder lightly, then, remembering he knew her not, she withdrew her hand and looked down as he somewhat turned.*
"Twas a gift from...from Jack Sparra, best Captain in the seven seas and all the Caribbean...a gift from..."
*She paused and looked back to him.*
"Ye, Jack..."
*Hearing someone at the doorway, she turned around and saw Emma and another man, whom she'd not met yet. Nodding to him and thanking her for the things, she placed therm down and thanked Sarah as well.*
*Twas when she also saw Will enter, and when Jack whispered the words "eunuch" she grinned. Aye, so he was remembering! She glanced over at Will then back to Jack, a cheerful spark arrising in her eyes.*

*Will watched as Jack took the plate from him and set it down and then he smiled when his friend smiled that same old smile, then it went away and Jack studied him for a bit once again. Will looked at him, then glanced away towards Tobbs then back to Jack who whispered the word 'Eunuch." Will let out a soft laugh then smiled brightly and nodded his head.* Yep, Jack do you remember me now? *Will asked. He was overflowing with happiness and excitment and he wanted to just reach out and Jack but that would probably just frighten the man, it would probably have even frightened the old Jack. So instead Will just stepped a little closer to him and braved putting his hand on Jacks shoulder and smiled. Even though Jack looked like a completley different person and pretty much acted differently, Will had hope that something inside him would snap and their old Captain, full of bravo and rum would come back.*

Post by Arayel Montclaire on Sept 15, 2003 19:04:49 GMT -5
*Arayel turned to Emma as she spoke to her.* Anything ye can do to help mate will be appreciated, right now I think tis just a waiting game though. Waiting to see if, and what he remembers. *Emma nodded then and left. Arayel turned to Tobbs when she told her all they could do was be strong. She smiled weakly and nodded her head. She liked this woman. There was a kindness to her. That, and her strength sat well with Arayel. Yawning slightly she moved to a chair by the window and sat, falling asleep within ten minutes. THings had progressed quickly, and Arayel hadn't really slept that well the night before. A few hours later, when the room was darkened, and night was beginning to settle about the city, she could herar the sounds of movement. She woke up quietly, but kept still, just watching the goings on. She saw JAck eye her quizically a moment. FOr which she wasn't surprised. She was still relatively a stranger to him. BUt he looked at Tobbs, and the necklace she wore almost as though he remembered something about them.* Must've been a gift he made to her at one time. *She said silently to herself. She saw Tobbs awaken and look at Jack nearly pleadingly. Almost willing him to remember. Then Tobbs confirmed her suspicions over the charm by telling him as much herself. The sight nearly broke Arayel's heart. But still she stayed silent. She noticed a movement out of the corner of her eye and turned to see Emma, her arm looking nearly healed, standing with the young man from earlier. He asked her if there were anything she liked less than feeling useless. Arayel grined slightly, she knew for herself there wasn't a less pleasent feeling in the world. And right now they all felt pretty much useless, as well as helpless. A few more moment's passed. And will came in carrying a plate of food for JAck. It suddenly hit Arayel that she hadn't eaten since the morniong before, and she was extremely famished. As soon as this relization hit her her stomach rumbled rather loudly, and she wrapped her arms about herself with an embarrased look hopping no one had noticed. Will and Jack seemed to be looking at each other, then Jack said something peculiar. It sounded like "Eunuch". Of course this puzzled Arayel even more but she said not a thing. The air about the room was somewhat tense, no that wasn't the word for it, more like expectant, and she hated to do anything to disturb the stillness that had seemed to ensnare them all.*

Sarah turned from where she stood at Jack's bedroom door, when she heard Maria. Sarah slightly grinned then replied to her question. When Jack saw Will he said 'Eunuch'! I do believe he is getting his memory back, though it will be a slow process I'm afraid. Sarah looked back towards Jack, then back to Maria. Where have you been anyway? Hopefully not getting into mischeif without my now are you?

[glow=blue,2,300]* As Sarah told her of the incident of the : eunich" Maria smiled and lokked towards Jack. But when Sarah had asked where she had been she jolted back to Sarah and bit her lip* " Oh nothing dear. I've seen no one and nothing." * Maria grinned innocently*[/glow]

Sarah slightly glared at Maria. Well if you don't want to tell me...Sarah sniffed looked back at Jack, then turned and walked away. Slightly pushing Maria as she walked by.

(ooc- I have permission to ncp Snakes and the rest of the gang along with flame. Also I worked out with bbb what Saber does ok? we have it worked out. Jacquelin i ncped you a bit i hope its alright)
Flame had followed Snakes and the rest of the gang to the docks and onto Barbossa's ship. Soon Barbossa arived also but Flame could tell he was wounded. Flame was still sore from his loss of his prisoner Saber, and he still wanted to kill her. He helped put the ship to sail but dark thoughts floated through his head.
Saber hung grimly to the side of the ship. There was a good chance of her getting killed or captured but there was a good chance of her compleating the task she had set out to do. As it grew darker she climbed up the side of the ship. Looking over the rail she saw no one about. Quickly climbing on deck she catously made her way over to the cabins. She guessed Barbossa would be in one of these. She ducked behind some barrels as she saw the pirate girl that had been helping Barbossa earlier come out of one of the cabins. "Hes in there." she thought to herself. Quickly and quietly she she slipped to the door and went in. Barbossa lay on the bed looking....not himself. Slowly she advanced and drew out one of her knives. She stood over Barbossa for a min looking down at him. No she couldnt do it. She wasnt like her father who would kill the wounded. She wasnt like her sister who would kill those unaware. Her method was kill in a fair combat. She just couldnt do it. Her knife droped to the floor. The point sticking in the wood. She turned and ran out of the cabin . She knew she was making alot of noise but she didnt really care she ran to the rail and made to dive over into the water when she was grabbed by a strong hand.....

(OOC Ok, this is gonna have to be short because I'm in the middle of a Biology project thats due tomorrow... ick)
::Barbossa tossed and turned on his bed, lost in a dreamless and fevered sleep. He hadn't stirred once while Jaqueline had worked on extracting the bullet from his arm, but now the rum was beginning to sting, and he was slowly waking up::
::He was aware that someone was in the room, but somehow he knew it wasn't Jacqueline. She had been covered in blood, and he had smelled that on her, even in his half-conscious state. He also knew it wasn't one of his crew, for whoever it was was trying hard to be quiet...::
::Suddenly, he heard the slow, soft scrape of a knife being pulled from its sheath, and he caught his breath. He couldn't react quickly enough in this state. If he were attacked now...::
::But to his surprise, he heard the knife hit the floor, and his attacker fled form the room. He finally opened his eyes, and saw a fleeting image of a woman as she passed out of the door. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he muttered one word:: "Saber...."
::As the memories of their last encounter flashed through his mind, he began to fill with rage. He remembered her sharp tongue, and that miraculous survival after he had run her through with his sword. He stood up, and began to walk toward the door::
::He saw Saber by the railing, preparing to dive in, so he reached out and grabbed her arm:: "Goin' somewhere, miss?" ::He said with a grim smile:: "It's not safe ta be diving off ships, ye know... We wouldn't want ye ta get 'urt, now would we, Saber?"
::He saw her flinch when he said her name, knowing that he recognized her. That would only make it worse for her, she thought. Barbossa smiled again, but he was getting dizzy, and felt like he was going to collapse again. He began to drag her toward his cabin, calling out to Jacqueline to hurry and bring him some rope::

:Jack's eyes lit suddenly, as he got a positive reaction from Will. In fact, he nearly beamed, but it faded soon. He was frustrated....he couldn't remember.....:
:He glanced over at the others in the room....trying to put memories of any kind to their faces. To Tobbs....he looked at her. Got the distinct feeling of....Happiness? He wasn't sure. No....it was more then that....she was more then a friend to him. He gave her a apoligetic look,as if to say he was sorry he didn't know her:
:A few things flashed in his head....concerning women...quite a few memories of being slapped by them. He gave Tobbs a wary look, as if trying to figure out if she was one of them.:
:After a while.....Jack just sat back down on the bed, convinced he was safe for the moment, and ate a bit of what Will had brought.....then went back over to the mirror:
:He stared at himself a while....hoping to figure things out a bit......but he soon gave up. Tears of sheer frustration were growing in his dark eyes. His jaw set, and his eyes growing firey and stormy, he glared back at the relfection....Jack let out a hurt sob, and suddenly, slammed his fist into the mirror, effectivly shattering it to pieces.:
:Fist bleeding, Jack sunk back to the floor, holding his head in his hands. The sound he was soon emitting wasn't one of sadness...but of anger.....:

*Will was happy that Jack didn't withdrawl when he placed his hand on his shoulder. He gave it an ever so gentle pat, then took a step back, leaning against the windowseal to let Jack try and remember the others. He thought he noticed a flicker in the mans eyes when they landed on Tobbs but nothing more seemed to come of it. When Jack sat down and started to eat, Will made his way back towards the door. Then he heard a sob and the sound of shattering glass. He spun around quickly and saw Jack shrink down to the floor. He frowned and took a deep breath then knealt down beside him and started tossing the broken pieces in a tin beside the dresser. He gave Jack an appologetic look. He hadn't had the proper guards watch his friends cell and he felt like he had a bit of the blame for what happened to Jack.* Im sorry about all of this Jack. But you knew my name at least and thats a start right? *Will said, throwing away the last of the shards of glass with help from a couple others. He lifted the tin up and walked to the doorway again, turning to look back at Jack* You've got a lot of people here who care about you a great deal mate and all of us will do what we can to help you. *Will said softly, then he looked at Tobbs. She'd be the best one to comfort him right now, after all she probably had more love for him than anyone there, besides Rose. He gave her a sad smile, then turned again and walked outside to the trashcans to get rid of the glass. He looked again at the sky as he paused on the doorstep. Then Catherine and James came outside and each grabbed one of his hands and looked up at him. He smiled down at them then sat down on the doorstep, placing them in his lap. He pulled them close to him and just held them, trying not to cry about Jack as Will never really cried in his life.*
