Evelyn fought briefly with the last wounding him fatally and he fell. She noticed as many of the crew were already ont he Cutlass and looked to the cannons. She noticed as Tobbs, and soon Will followed. It was indeed going their way it seemed and with dead pirates around their ship Evelyn walked carefully over them getting back to the cannons. She looked ahead and noticed a pirate on the cutlass loading a cannon and aiming right at her. "Ah bloody 'ell!" she said. The cannon was lit and she hit the ground and flattened herself against the deck of the ship as the blast went off and extreme heat could be felt as she covered her head and she lifted it as she noticed a cannon sail over the ship, it smashed into the deck slightly and sank into the ocean. "You bastards!" she said angrily standing and loading a cannon. As she loaded, she looked noticing the battle was really ont he cutlass, but now that the kiddies were here, they couldn't leave the Pearl without any heavy artillery. " 'S long as their alright." she said as she aimed the cannon at the captain's quarters, the stern of the ship. She lit it and let it blast away...wondering if Barbossa was in the captain's quarters...either way, he would no longer have his precious Captain's Quarters anymore. Hopefully the others could keep the pirates on the Cutlass. She would deal with the cannons.

:Jack went searching for his own particular prey.....helping his crew when he got in the odd chance here and there...and did his damnest to avoid getting shot:
:Bullets were whistling by almost to close for comfort. he wondered vaguly why people were using pistols in such close range fighting, shrugged it off and went below, hunting:

Sarah jumps for joy as she sees Jack and Tobbs climb back onto the ship with the twins. She carefully watches as Elizabeth runs after them as Tobbs takes them away. Sarah gets ready to follow Elizabeth, but then decides to give Jack a big hug before. Thank ye Jack, for bringing the twins back and all! As Sarah goes to find Elizabeth, she grins at Will. We have then back Will! We have them back! Sarah went to the cabin where Elizabeth and the twins were. Sarah politely knocked. Elizabeth dear, it's me Sarah, might I come in?!

*As Will fought his way across the Cutlass he heard someone behind him. Spinning around quickly, he almost came face to face with the hilt of a sword. He ducked and got ready to swing his own sword but saw that it was Jack. He grinned and gave a nod to Jack *Ah surely you're not sick of me already![/b] *He teased laughing then patted him quickly on the shoulder at the mention of the twins.* Aye, I saw you bring 'em over. Elizabeth's with them right now in the cabin. *Will said then watched Jack go off to find Barbossa. Honestly Will was surprised that he hadn't already seen the man. And once Jack got to him he'd probably never see him again, or at least he hoped not.* But I don't have that much luck it seems. *He sighed to himself then spun around to face another pirate, this one far more skilled than the ones he had fought earlier. After a gruling bit of fencing Will finally got in a hit in the mans arm, but then the pirate got in a hit as well, cutting Will's side. Will winced then finished the pirate off quickly. He glanced down at his now blood stained shirt but there was no time to stop now, he'd just have to fight on through the pain. He managed to make his way back over to Tobbs again and gave her a friendly smile, figuring the chances of getting out alive were better if he fought alongside someone who he trusted.*

( Sorry guys I was at Disneyland Yesterday)
* Maria watched the battle go on. Wondering if it would ever end.Watching everyone pour their hearts, sewat, and strenght into it. She ran towards Tobbs tugging her shoulder.Asking if she could be by her just in case she couldn't support herself. Knowing she had had enough*

Emma glances over at the Pearl to see Evylyn manning the cannons all by her onesies.She reflected that Evelyn might need some help,as shekicked a pirate overboard.Just then,she heard something behind her.
Rick swore loudly and to great effect,though whether from pain or surprise not even he could say.He clutched his side with one hand,trying to ignorte the blood,and cut down the man who had stabbed him."Bloody son of a-"
"Rick,ye're hurt!"Emma made her way to Rick's side,hacking at anyone who dared bar her way.She knocked a man senseless with the hilt of her sword,then faced Rick.She was covered in soot from the cannons,and blood-mostly that of enemies,though some of her own-leaked through small tears in the fabric of her shirt.But she knew Rick was worse off,no matter how hard he tried to cover the bloodstain with his hand.
"Let me see it,Rick."
Rick bit his lip-a habit that he had picked up years ago from Emma.After a moment,he lifted up his shirt just enough to expose the wound."'S nothin'," he muttered,knowing that Emma would know he wasn't telling the truth.
Emma took one look at Rick's wound,and then looked back up into his eyes."We're goin' back to the Pearl,she said with finality.As much as she wanted to be in the thick of the battle,it wasn't safe for Rick to be there with such an injury.And she was not going to leave his side.Besides,she reasoned with herself,they could help Evelyn with the cannons.
And if the tides turned and she was needed on the Cutlass...well,she could swing back over easily enough.
She walked Rick over to the edge of the ship and grabbed a rope."Can yeh hold onto this?"She asked.The rope could hold them both,but she wasn't sure if she could hold him...
Rick nodded,grabbing hold of the rope as Emma offered it to him.He took a deep breath,and they swang over the gap between the two ships,landing in a hep on the deck of the Black Pearl.

Evelyn blasted it noticing it had chipped the captain's quarters. Evelyn was wiping the sweat from her face as she loaded another cannon when she noticed two people swinging back. Evelyn picked up her sword from resting on the ground near her and headed to the two until she noticed it was Emma and Rick. "Emma, Rick!" she was happy to see them until she noticed Rick had blood on his shirt. "Bloody 'ell Rick! Wha' happened?" she asked concerned. She looked to the captain's quarters knowing they needed to get him well.

"Stay with the cannons,"Emma told Evelyn gently."I'll take care of 'im."She lifted Rick to his feet,and helped hiom walk over to a more protected area,then examined the wound again.
It was bleeding profusely,but most likely wouldn't be fatal.For an instant,she allowed herself to wish someone more skilled than she in the arts of healing were present,but quickly settled down to business.She pulled a flask of rum from her pocket,pouring some onto the wound to cleanse it.Then she looked around for something to use as bandages.After a moment,she sighed.
"Shirt."
Wincing from the pain of moving,Rick removed his shirt and handed it to Emma.He watched as she cut it into strips,and bandaged his wound.He was glad that she was there.He wasn't too sure how serious his injury was,but she was a comfort to him,no matter how fierce she could be.
Emma tied off a final bandage and stood.There wasn't much else she could do.She'd get Arayel or somebody to look at it later...but for now,her duty was to protect the Pearl and the people aboard her.She walked over to Evelyn and the cannons,beginning to load one of them...

:Jack by this time had moved through all the decks......searching....his prey must be avoiding him.and for good reason. This was one of the few times Jack wanted to see a man die by his own hand:
:Finally he figured Barbossa would show himself soon enough and went back on deck to help his crew. He was loyal if nothing else to them:

Evelyn nodded tearing herself away from them. She was very concerned for Ricks health. She went back anyway and looked around for the next vulnerable spot. Just as she was looking she noticed Emma joined her. "It's gettin' difficult to know where to hit the ship without killin' our own crew." Evelyn said pointing the cannon at the sails. At least this way, the enemy wouldn't be able to try to get away. She lit it and covered her ears as it blasted away.

Emma nodded as Evelyn spoke."Aye,I c'n see th'.ButI reckon yeh're doin' the best thing one c'n do under these circumstances..."She grunted slightly as she adjusted the cannon's aim.She lit the fuse and watched as the cannonball took a piece out of one of the sails."'Ang in there,Rick,"she whispered."Shouldn' be too much longer...."

" Tobbs!"* Maria said tugging at her dress.* " I need to stay by you. I can't hold on on my own. Can I stay beside you. If I don' I'll prosper."* Getiing pushed from side to side like a boey she held on tight to Tobbs*
