Emma turned at the sound of Arayel's voice.She smiled."Aye,it'd be good to have ye along.Ye can get ready fast,righ'?"She strapped on the last of er weapons,the shot a quizzical glance at Will."Didn' know ye could cook...Coming or not,Rick?"
Rick,who had never removed his weapons in the first place,nodded."As if I'd let ye run around all by yerself?Who knows how many people yeh've got who want te kill ye while I was gone?"
Emma grinned at him guiltily."Far too many,"she admitted."Though I doubt sincerely whether they'd show their faces in Port Royale."She ran her fingers through her hair a few times and ran out of the door,with Rick and Arayel behind her.
They ran through the streets of Port Royale for a few minutes,when Emma saw someone lying in the gutter,limp and pale.
Someone wearing Kat's clothes.
She ran to the person,kneeling down to check her vital signs.There was a heartbeat,and feverish breathing.Besides that,Emma couldn't tell much.She looked to Arayel.
"It's Kat,alright.What d'ye think,Arayel?"

:Jack had looked at Emma and gave her a small smile, as he did with Rick and Arayel, then looked around a bit:
:When the Eunuch had spoken about the Pearl, he only nodded, but only seemed slightly interested. However, by his body language one could tell he was fairly happy to be leaving the house:
:But he looked around, then began rumaging about in the kitchen cupboards, making a awful loud mess about the whole thing, still, he seemed rather happy to be doing whatever it was that had come into his mind:
:Before long a loud ruckus was coming from the kitchen...mainly yelps of excitment and a lot of clanging pans and dishes. Jack seemed awfully happy about something and wasn't paying much attention to whomever decided to come and go, or stay and watch. When he'd finished he was covered in flour from head to toes....wide eyed and looking distinctly overjoyed about something:
:The reason for this sourceo f happiness became apparent a few minutes later. Jack had accomplished making a stack of odd shaped pancakes and was looking as if he'd found the biggest treasure ever. He placed them on the table, on a large plate, looking proud:
:He looked around a bit, a slight grin on his face, then wandered back upstairs to clean himself off:

*Tobbs smiled up at Jack. Aye, indeed twas safe, she'd protect him, and she had a feeling he'd protect her. When he mentioned Barbossa, she shuddered a bit and glared out the window; when he mentioned the Pearl, she grinned and nodded.*
*When he, without warning, left the room, she watched him walk out and heard Will's voice. Knowing all was well, she leaned back in the chair and sighed happily. Things were beginning to look up.*
*A loud clatter and yelps of what seemed to be some sort of excitement awoke Tobbs from the small nap she'd slipped into.Standing rather quickly as she saw Jack hadn't returned yet, she went swiftly down the stairs and into the kitchen, where...she laughed at the site...*
*...for there was Jack, loking as pasty and floury as a unbaked loaf of dough, admiring a rather large plate of newly made pancakes. He seemed so excited, shejust leaned on the doorway and watched him, a smile still upon her face. Then, seeing him head up stairs, she spoke...*
"Jack, ye be fergettin' yer pancakes!"
*She paused and remembered hearing Will mention a visit to the Pearl.*
"Aye, go on ahead, save yer pancakes till yer washed up. I'll be goin' wit ye to yer ship, savvy? "
*As she saw him standing at the stairs, it almost semed like he was an apparition of some sort, though a bit pasty and rather happy than gloomy. Holding back a giggle, she called once more.*
"And if ye be needin' anything, call and I'll be up there immediately!"

:Jack's face split into a grin and he gestured to the pancakes. He'd make a few dozen it seemed and wanted the crew to try them. He hurried up the stairs and dusted himself off for the most part, and cleaned his face up, so he didn't look so messy. When he reappearedhe looked at Tobbs and smiled somewhat crazily as if he was remembering something.:
:He had in fact remembered making pancakes for Rose's mom one day....then he'd left the morning after....but it was a pleasant mememory none the less and he seemed overjoyed with teh fact that'd hed accomplished making anything at all:
:With a happy grin he yawned and looked at Tobbs, as if expecting her to try some. They didnt look half bd if truth be told. Jack himself was looking slightly more...well like himself. He was getting color back into his face...now that the flour was gone you could tell he was slowly recoverying.:
:He calmly began looking around the kitchen and started to clean up the mess he'd made. He looked rather......odd. To say the very least. A man in pirate attire, with bandages and a face that was shaved as clean as Will's, and hair tied back. But he seemed happy none the less:
:Finally he sat down...just sort of staring at the pancake pile in front of him a strange little smirk on his face:

*Will gave a nod and a smile to Arayel as she stood up then he looked at Emma and frowned a little.* No, I haven't seen either of them. I haven't seen Saber since the day we found Jack actually! I hope you find them. [/i]*He sighed, then when she mentioned his cooking he grinned.*[/i] Aye, I'm not too bad. *He winked, then watched Jack wonder off into the kitchen. At the first sound of clattering pans and cabinets Will rushed in and then paused in the doorway, watching the Captain with a raised brow and folded arms. He was making quite the raquet and before long nearly all the household was awake. When Jack completed the pancakes and made an offering to the crew Will grinned at him as he passed by and went upstairs. As Jack came back down the twins followed him, still in their pajamas and chattering away to one another. They rushed up to the pancakes when they saw them and stood up on chairs, stooping over them.*Ooh Mr. Jack can I try one of those! *James asked, licking his lips. Catherine jumped up and down in her chair and Will placed a hand on her shoulder to stop her.* Careful love. Don't want to hurt yourself before you get a taste of Jacks pancakes do you? *Will smiled. She shook her head and both kids sat down in their seats, smiling brightly up at Jack.*

:Jack raised a eyebrow at both of the children, a sort of bemused look crossing his face as he nodded:
;He looked over at Will and grinned a bit, then cleared his throat, and sort of arched a eyebrow at him: "Sorry about the mess...." He said softly and turned back to the window. Finally he began talking again, in a voice that sounded rusty and sort of scratchy:
"Are we going to visit the pearl?" He asked and looked up at Will, as he folded his arms over his chest and tilted his head to one side, still considering the man, whose name he couldn't remember. He frowned and watched the children dig into the pancakes:
:He sighed and paced the kitchen a bit, and looked at the crew that had gathered in the doorways, or in the rooms around them, and frowned a bit:

Aye I can be ready in a few moments. *Arayel said as she rushed off to grab her weapons. a rapier, several daggers, and a pistol, and strapped them about her personage. She grinned as she saw a flour covered Jack move up the stairs, and grinned impishly as she grabbed one of the pancakes from the plate on the table before taking out the door after Emma and Rick. Eating it hastilly. As they moved down the street they found Kat lying in the gutter. When Emma asked her oppinion Arayel muttered* From the looks of it I'd y she got herself all worked up and upset over something or other then went out and got herself drunk and passed out in the gutter catching a nice little fever while she was at it *As she pulled her wrist away from the womans forehead. She moved into the nearby tavern and came back with a glass of water.* She'll probably be killing me for this but ah well naught I can do about that... *She sighed as she threw the water in tthe womans ace reviving her with a splutter. Then Arayel dug into her pouch and pulled out a flask and two caplets* 'ere, take these they'll bring down that blimey fever ye got yerself. *She said with a lopsided grin. Giving Kat a moment to comply and come round to herself Arayel then asked. 'Ave ye seen yer sister Saber about anyplace? None o' us have seen 'er since the day before yesterday.

(ooc-If you hadn't seen the announcement,Saber won't be on for a long time,and we do have permission to NPC her and Kat.)
"Hold on a moment,Arayel,"murmured Rick."I'm not sure yeh've got the whole story..."He helped Emma prop Kat against a wall,then turned her slightly."See,look.She's bleedin' a bit here...looks like someone knocked 'er out.Though I don't doubt that she'd gotten a bit drunk beforehand...don't seem the type to lose a fight when she's sober,do she?"
Emma smiled grimly."Brilliant deduction,Rick..."she muttered."An' no,I don' think I ever heard tell of Kat here losin' a fight before a few glasses o' rum.Fever's most likely from infection in that wound."She allowed Arayel to administer medecine for the fever to Kat,then put a hand on her shoulder as she began to speak.
"Emma?...'s'at you?" she shook her head until it cleared.Emma and Arayel were standing over her, along with a young man she had never met.The young man had dark,shaggy hair and was dressed as a pirate.He was rather tall,with a certain jauntiness about him,and stood rather closer to Emma than to Arayel.She'd have to ask Emma about that...
But now wasn't the time for introductions.
"Saber!Where'd she go?Did ye find 'er?She...Barbossa..."
Her pulse was fast now,and she looked about wildly."Where is she?"
"Shhh...Kat,calm down!I 'aven't seen ye since we brought Jack home...that was 3 days ago.Where've ye been?Where's Saber?And tell us...calmly."Emma handed Kat a flask."Take a sip,and...tell us what happened."
Kat drank a small amount of the liquid in the flask and took a deep breath.Hysteria wouldn't help Saber.
"Ye 'aven't seen 'er,then?She didn' come back?"At the subdued head shakes,she sighed and continued."Well...after ye told me she was missin',Emma,I didn' think too much of it...but after a while,I started to get this really bad feelin',like somethin' bad was goin' te happen to Saber.So I went out lookin' for 'er. An'...An' I saw 'er.Went down to the docks an' I saw 'er clingin' te the side of Barbossa's ship.I went back to tell ye all,but I..."She grinned sheepishly."I stopped at the pub.Y'know,I jus' needed a little somethin' te calm me down.So after a few glasses of rum,I started back...an' there was some man,an' I guess I offended 'im somehow,'cause next thing I knew I was lyin' in this gutter an' he was kickin' me an'I blacked out.Was it really that long ago?"
Emma nodded grimly."All right,then...so Saber is on Barbossa's ship?Rick,what d'ye reckon we should do?"
Rick looked at Kat for a moment."That was three days ago.The ship is long gone by now.First thing,we should get Kat back te Will's house,get 'er fixed up.Then we'll figure out what to do about Saber."He looked to Emma and Arayel."Sound good?"
Emma nodded"Kat,can ye walk?"
Kat nodded to Emma,though she still wanted to do something to help Saber right away.She used the wall to rise to her feet,but felt very wobbly."Emma...?Little help?"
Emma stood by Kat,motioning foir Rick to support her on the other side,and the four of them set off back towards the Turner house.

Sarah took a step back as Briar stuck her face in Sarah's. Sarah slightly flinced as she smelled alcohol. Well, don't let me disturb your and Maria's visit. What is it you want?

Emmastumbled into the Turner house,with Kat between herself and Rick.She eased Kat into a chair."Stay here.I'll get Will,or Tobbs,or someone..."
She walked into the kitchen to find much of the crew around a table eating pancakes,and Jack looking very pleased with himself.She approached Will.."Mr. Turne--Will,we found Kat.She's in pretty bad shape,fever and all,an'she'll most likely be starvin' once she wakes.She says she saw Saber."Emma bit her lip,looking deep into Will's eyes.
"She's on Barbossa's ship."

*She pulled Emma closer. *
" Emma I 'ave to leave. I 'ave to catch Barbossa. I am planning to leave tonite an leave a note for will. please don't tell."

*Will was watching his children dig into Jacks pancakes and he shook his head at them a little to let them know to leave some for the others, and they half listened. Then Jack appologized for the mess and mentioned the Pearl. Will grinned.* Don't worry about it Jack it can be claned. And yes, we're going to see your ship, just so you can get to know her again. *Will said, then Emma rushed up to him. When she started to call him Mr. Turner but changed it to Will he smiled. He didn't much like being called by a formal name. Then she mentioned Saber being aboard Barbossas ship and his heart skipped a beat.* She's on his ship!? That can't possibly be good, for either of them! *Will cried then Maria pulled Emma aside. Will watched them closely, although he couldn't make out entirely what they were saying. Although knowing the nature of Maria it wasn't hard to guess what she was up to. Once the two of them finished talking Will walked up to Emma and whispered in her ear.* Keep a watch on that one. *He grinned, then walked back to Jack. He wanted to tell him what happened with Saber but thought it might ruin things to get to hasty, so he didn't mention it. He'd talk to Tobbs about what to do later.* Well Jack, Tobbs...are you ready to get to the Pearl now?

;Jack's eyes flickered when Will talked about the ship....but he watched the children now. sort of smiling at them with a half grin on his face:
:finally he looked over at Will and cleared his throat: "Mate...I'm not to sure who you are yet.....but "eunuch" was the first thing I thought of when I saw you....but..." He gestured to the kids. "If these are yours then I doubt that title is fitting...so who might you be?" He asked, speaking the first true sentences he'd said in a few days now.:
