Emma shook her head."Aye...I wouldn't've expected yeh te recognize me,mate.I'd only met ye two times afore ye--ye lost yer memory.Once in Tortuga-ye helped me an' Saber save Kat,an' then the Navy blokes took yeh-I tried te stop 'em."She smiled,gesturing towards her arm,which was now beginning to scar over."Then when we came te see yeh in the prison,I let ye have my rum.Anyway,I'm Emma.Emma Hawkins."
She looked up at Rick."I don' think ye two 'ave met before at all....
Rick shook his head."Nah,we 'aven't.I'm Rick.It's a pleasure te meet yeh."He inclined his head politely at Jack,having apparently gained the ability to speak to his childhood hero without freezing up or turning any funny colors.He smiled.
"She really is a beautiful ship,Jack."

:Jack gave the pair of them a nod, giving Rick a slightly odd look for the moment. Then he just smiled and nodded at the ship:
"Aye......she is beautiful..hard to believe anything like this belongs to me....." He said softly, then seemed to be thinking over the few memories he had.:
"Well Emma...it seems I owe you for trying to help me....remind me I've said that when I can remember my own name.....savvy?" Then he looked at Rick:
"Ye don't have to be formal mate.....both of you....I'm not a king or anything close to that.....savvy?"

Emma smiled at Jack."Ah,ye don' owe me nothin'.I seem te draw trouble like a magnet,anyway.But it'd be a greater honor than I deserve teh be able te sail on this ship...savvy?"She laughed,and wandered off to sit at the edge of the dock,staring off into the infinite bluegreen of the sea.
Rick smirked."Aye,all righ' then.'S just me,I s'pose.Never know 'ow te talk te someone 'til after I've met 'em."He shrugged,then went and sat beside Emma.He smiled at her,wrapping an arm around her."I lose track of ye fer two years,an' ye've faked yer own death an' taken up bein' friends with the most feared mercenary in Tortuga,an' now ye're sailin' on the Black Pearl with Jack Sparrow as yer captain?Emma,lass,I don' know how I ever kept up with ye..."
Emma smiled,leaning against Rick slightly."Aye,well at least I didn't spend most of me time drinkin' meself silly...I at least tried te find another ship te sail on."
"Aye...I guess tha's true."

*Will watched Jack as he looked at the ship from the dock, then said he was proud of it but wish he could remember why he loved it. Will just sighed and nodded, glancing at Emma and Rick as they approached. He smiled at them and let Jack introduce himself. When he paused a moment after the first name Will frowned a little then waited until Emma and Rick finished talking with him. Then he lifted the sleeve of Jacks shirt up just enough to reveal the sparrow in flight tattoo then he looked at Jack and smiled.* Sparrow, Jack. *Will said softly, releasing Jacks arm again. Then he helped himself aboard the Pearl and leaned against the railing looking down at the others on the dock.*

Elizabeth rose , stirring softly to a wonderful smell. She sat up and looked beside her only to find Will Missing. Her heart raced slightly, then she realized he was most likely already up and about downstairs. She rose from their bed, pulled on her dressing gown, and glanced out the window at the Pearl. She smiled as she ran her hands through her hair. At a soft knock she turned and called* Enter. *Abigail came in carrying a tray of pancakes and a small mug of coffee.* Thank you Abigail. *She smiled* No problem miss. *Abigail replied* Mr Jack made them. *Elizabeth smiled to herself at the idea of Jack Sparrow cooking. Knowing him he had probably gotten flour all over himself and made a frightful mess of her kitchen. She sat down to eat. After she had finished her breakfast Abigail helped her get dressed.* I don't think I'm ever going to get used to these corsets Abigail *She said between gasps of breath. Once she had dressed Cathereine and James came bounding up the stairs. Elizabeth smiled as her children came running into her room calling "mommy mommy"* Daddy and Mr Jack went to see Mr Jacks boat! *Said James excitedly* Ship dear *Elizabeth corrected gently with a smile. *She knelt down and scooped them into an embrace kissing them both on the cheeks.* Ohh you're both sticky, full of pancake syrup! *She said chuckling.* Abigail, be a dear and get them cleaned up and dressed. I'm going to find Jack and my husband. *She turned to her grinning, sticky, lovely children once more and smiled* You both behave for Abigail while mommy is away. *She said in a gentle yet firm voice* Yes mommy *They replied in unison. She knelt down and gave them each one more kiss then rose and left the room, gliding down the stairs and out the door. She headed swiftly to the ports where she found Will and Jack looking on at the Pearl and talking. She frowned slightly when she heard Jack say he couldn't remember why he was proud of the Pearl. She saw Emma and Rick come up and talk to him some, then sit on the edge of the deck. Then Will showed Jack his sparrow tattoo. She came up next to Will and wrapped her arms about his waist.* Hello my love. *She said kissing him quickly. She then turned to Jack and saw he was gazing at the Pearl once more. She spoke quietly, recalling words he had once told her when they were stranded on an island together.* A ship isn't just masts, and sails, and a hull, and keel, that's what a ship needs, not what a ship is. What a ship is is freedom Jack, freedom... *She hoped the words would spark some memory within him, as she looked on him in concern. He hardly seemed the same man now, beardless, beadless, without his trademark bandana or kohl about his eyes. But she knew somewhere inside him was the Captain Jack Sparrow that her and Will had come to know and love. He had to be in there somewhere, he just needed to find himself.*

* As They rejoined the group on the pearl. Maria was right in the middle of it feeling like she couldn't breath she could barley walk. She finally reached Sarh and crouched down so no one would here*
" We leave tonite. On a ship at the docks. It will be waiting there for us."

*Arayel had stayed behind at the Turner home when the others headed for the docks, to tend to Kat and see she was made comfortable. She decided to take the opportunitty to eat a little something while she was still asleep in the chair but soon she started to stir and groan slightly*
*Kat stirred and graoned grabing at her head as she attempted once again to sit up. THough she didn't suceed any better this time than she had the last.* My 'ead hurt somthin' awful... *She grumbled bitterly*
It's no wonder given the size of the lump ye got on your 'ead Kat. *Arayel commented dryly*
*Kat looked up and saw Arayel approaching her, a concerned look on her face. She chuckled slightly at the girls word's* I suppose ye do have point there lass. *She agreed*
Course I do, now c'mon, let's get ye cleaned up and in a bed where ye can sleep proper. *Arayel helped Kat stand, and slowly they worked there way up the stairs. As she tended the woan's wounds she told her about the plan she had overheard Emma and Maria discussing.*
So they be going after Barboss tonight eh? *Kat mused as Arayel cleaned the wound on her head, hissing only slightly as the alcohol touched the bloodied lump*
From what I can gather at least. *Arayel confirmed as she affixed the badadges in place and pushed Kat to lay back, then hanbded her two more caplets* Here take these when ye wake up, they'll take the rest of the fever away and help with the pain. I'm goin' after the others to the Pearl. You just stay here and rest. Ye hear me?
*Kat grinned at the lass as she ordered her to get some sleep.* Ye be a bit of a mother hen don't ye lass? *She inquired laughingly. She saw the girl blush a bit and her grin widened into a smile*
*Arayel blushed slightly at the question.* Aye I do, though most of us that choose to study healing tend to get a little protective of there patients. Now sleep. And don't ye be getting any Ideas about trying to sneak off and Join Emma and Rick to find Saber ye' hear me? *She gave the woman a hard stare.*
Aye lass I hear ye'. *Saber said quietly, but in her mind she already knew there was no way she was going to leave her sister to Barbossa's mercy.*
*Arayel nodded, though she suspected it wouldn't be that easy to keep Kat down. With a last sigh as the woman turned over and closed her eye's Arayel walked out of the room, closing the dorr behind her and went down the stairs. She made her way to the docks and found everyone else already on or about the Pearl. She stopped a moment her breath stolen away by the beauty of the ship, before making her way on decks. She found Emma and Rick a ways off conversing with each other and sat down next to Emma.* Kat's all fixed up and sleeping now, but I don't doubt she'll be bent on finding a way to come with us when we sail after Barbossa tonight. *When Emma gave her a hard look she merely shrugged.* I 'eard ye talking with that Maria lass, ye honestly think I'm going to let ye have all the fun mate?

*Will was lost deep in his own thoughts about Jack as he leaned over the railing of the Pearl, that he hadn't even heard Elizabeth approach. As she wrapped her arms about him he jumped, a little startled but smiled when she kissed him, as he realized who it was.* Ah, good morning Elizabeth. Its good to see that you came. *He said, turning around to face her so that now his back was leaning on the rail. Little by little the group who came along to see the Pearl grew larger and larger. Will smiled again and glanced over at Jack* *You have yourself a great crew Jack. *He said in a simple voice. Then he found himself wondering if Jack knew he had a daughter. He opened his mouth to mention Rose but quickly shut it again. He figured Jack had more than enough on his mind already, he didn't want to clutter it up with more things. So instead he looked back at Elizabeth and smiled brightly.* I wasn't sure if we'd ever get the privledge to step foot on the Pearl again. *He said with a gentle laugh.*

*Elizabeth looked at Jack for a moment more, he seemed lost in his thought's. She then turned when Will spoke to her and smiled. She came up and lleaned on the railing next to him, leaning her head on his shoulder.* Yes love, I had thought much the same thing myself. I've missed her, and her Captain. It's a shame we have to be reunited under such trying circumstances. *She sighed heavily and linked her arm through his.* Do you miss it Will, the adventure, the excitment? Being out on the sea with Jack, the wind rushing through your hair and the sea spray in your face? *From the way she talked one would suspect Elizabeth was beginning to mis the adverture herself. But she had her children, and Will now. Her life was happy, and she knew she wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.*

Sarah left Maria, who was talking with Emma. Sarah decided to find Elizabeth, the twins, and Will. Sarah came to Jack's room and saw no one, though she did see a note saying that everyone was on the Pearl. Sarah left the Turner house, grabbed a cloak, and went to find everyone. Sarah climbed onto the deck and went to find Elizabeth and Will. She heard them in a cabin and leaned in on the door to open it, when she heard Elizabeth and Will talking inside. Sarah was in the mood to listen so she pinned her ear against the door. She heard Elizabeth tell Will of her longing for the ocean and to be back on the Pearl. Sarah gasped and stepped back from the door. She heard Elizabeth and Will seem to stop talking, and thought that they maybe heard her. She started backing away when she tripped over a bucket, giving her a gash in her leg. She looked at her bleeding leg and quickly hid under some steps leading up to a higher deck.
((OCC: sorry Will, well I fixed it))

((ooc: Kk Sarah *g* but they're on deck not in a cabin, lol am i getting annoying yet?))
*As Elizabeth asked Will if he missed the adventures on the sea with Jack he smiled a bit and his brown eyes sort of flickered a moment. He gazed away from the docks towards the sea for a long while before looking back to her.* Sometimes I do. Its an amazing way to live, I can see why my father enjoyed it so much. *But then he thought about the twins, and Elizabeth. It would be selfish to think of leaving the lot of them to go on an adventure. He shook his head slowly.* But I doubt I should ever go on one again. Theres too much too loose now. *He said softly, but then he smiled. He did miss adventure, but like Elizabeth he was happy. And besides he never went searching for adventure, it always seemed to find him instead and maybe it would again someday.*

Emma blinked,and her heart skipped a beat when Arayel mentioned going after Barbossa."Wh-What d'yeh mean?"She asked,not entirely convincingly.But Arayel had obviously overheard her conversation with Maria.She sighed."All righ' then...I don' s'pose I'd like bein' left behind,anyway.But how're we s'posed to keep Kat from followin' us?"
Rick grinned mischeviously."Well...we could always tie 'er down..."
Emma smacked him,though rather more gently than she would anyone else."Any good ideas?"She thought for a moment,then sighed and began to pace.It seemed her life had gotten very complicated in the last week...

* Maria nodded at Emma*
" Yes about Kat. I guess she could come too. But then that would be too much ye think. Anyways I have to get writng the leeter to Will soon. To not spend too much time 'ere tonite savvy!"
* As she got away from all the commotion she had to see Jack first. She found him there adoring his ship*
" 'ello captain. I see you're very busy adoring your ship but I 'ave to ask you something. "
* She went up to him closer and gave a slight smile*
" Do ye remeber me?"
