:Jack looked at Will: "Ye didn't say "pirate" huh?" :His voice was filled with laughter:
"Aye....I can understand why.....not all pirates are as charming or witty as myself...." His gest was between seriousness and natural good humor:
"is your friend coming?"

*Eric nodded as Evelyn stated her name and he shoved his hands in his pockets, turning his back on her as he looked back out at Port Royal again. Then he gave a sort of half laugh half grunt.*I have just as good of a reason as you do mate. Jack invited me along alright. Im not gonna kill anyone. *He said and turned back around to face her.* But if I have to I wont hesitate either. *He said and started to walk off when another man, Roux let Evelyn know he'd deal with Eric if there was trouble. Eric sized him up and nodded, figuring he could take him if he had to, but he looked back at Evelyn.* Seriously mate, Im only here because of my friend. I wont hurt you. *He said, holding his hands up in a defensive manner then he sat back down on the barrel, leaned back with his hands behind his head, and closed his eyes.*[/color]
*Will laughed and nodded at Jack then glanced around and shrugged as his eyes searched for Eric.* Yeah he should be. He'll turn up Im sure. He always does. *Will said, giving a side long glance to Jack.* You know pleanty about that subject. *He said, bringing his eyes back out to the docks as they closed in on the Pearl. He was actually excited to see it again.*

:Jack smiled and shook his head:
"Well....we can't be settin' sail until this one here...." :He nodded at Tobbs: "Wakes up.....shouldn't be too long..a day or less.....just a bit of blood gone....."
:He spotted Eric...having what appeared to be a half agurment with Evelyn.: "There's Eric." He said with a laugh. "Already gettin' to know the crew.....poor lad...."

Evelyn turned to Roux and grinned slightly. " 'm alright mate." She nodded and turned back to Eric. He seemed to be sizing Roux up and she shook her head slightly. "If ye have to, ye will..." Eve chuckled a bit. "Ye won' hur' me..." she laughed again leaning against the walls. Her eyes went over to Eric once again. "I'd like ta see ye try an' touch me mate." She smirked at him not even needing to size him up.
He was handsome, that was for sure, but he seemed a bit too confident, or at least...doubting her ability. She placed a hand through her curls. "Don' know who ye think ye are really, jus' boardin' our ship like tha'..." She huffed. Evelyn was a bit bothered by him...but at the same time couldn't help but grin.

*Eric glanced back up at Evelyn with a surprised look on his face and he laughed, rising to his feet again. He stared at her for a long moment and his grin grew. She was quite a lovley lass but that wouldn't matter much in a fight. She was a lot smaller than him and he figured if he could take Roux, he could take her too. He'd been in more than his share of fights in the past 20 years, although he had stopped after one two years ago resulted in the death of someone he loved.* And honestly lass, I dont know who you think you are thinking you could take me down so easily. *He stated, taking another step closer to her as he glanced at Will and Jack out of the corner of his eye once they came on board.*[/color]
*Will climbed aboard with Jack, helping him with Tobbs then he glanced over and saw Eric in Evelyns face and he groaned and shook his head.* Bloody hell, not again. *He said with a sigh but let the man be figuring he was just trying to make a point of some kind and that he'd get over it soon enough. He was just happy to be back on the Pearl with its haunting but beautiful decks and proud black sails. He took a deep breath and glanced back out to sea and he smiled. Wherever there was Jack, adventure was sure to follow and frankly Will was looking forward to more than just a bit of sailing to Tortuga.*

Evelyn looked over at Jack and Will as they boarded the ship, her eyes scanning them briefly but turning back to Eric as he stepped closer. Eve grinned at him. Who did he think he was, really? "Me? Ye don' know who I...." Evelyn shook her head. "I'm Evelyn Pearl, mate. I could take yer eyes from yer sockets so quick ye wouldn' even have time ta blink." Evelyn told him as she approached him. Her eyes stuck on his. "I could take out my blade, and slice off yer ear an' ye wouldn't even be able ta feel the pain...I'd cut it off so fast..." Evelyn began.
Then eyeing a pair of rings around his neck she went for them. In a moment her hand snatched at the necklace as she pulled the chain from him and tossed it over the side of the ship. Eve turned back to him breathing heavily. "See...that was quick...wasn' it?" She asked lifting a curved brow, resting her hand upon her hip.

*As Evelyn explained the things that she could do to him in the blink of an eye he folded his arms and grinned in an amused manner, nodding his head with every comment and he laughed. Then suddenly she snatched the necklace with the rings and instantly tossed it overboards. Erics eyes went from soft and amused to burning with hatred and anger. He grabbed a hold of her collar and yanked her towards him so that their faces were but a few inches apart.* Cut off an ear or cut out my eyes lady but dont you ever, EVER touch that necklace again unless you want me to slit you from navel to nose. *He said then shoved her back and instantly jumped overboard, diving into the water. His eyes scanned the water about him and his heart beat swiftly. He swallowed hard and came back up to the surface for breath. Tears filled his eyes and his mind felt empty but for the rings. Finally he dove under again and his heart skipped a beat as he saw a glimmer from the bottom. His chest burned but he continued swimming towards it until he scooped the chain up in his hands. Popping back up to the surface he climbed back aboard the ship and with an angry glance at Evelyn he sank down behind some barrels and looked down at the rings as a tear escaped his brown eyes and slid down his cheek.*[/color]
*Will was following Jack and Tobbs when he heard a splash from the water. He raised a brow and hurried to the railing to see the dark boots of Eric dissapear beneath the waters surface.* What's he doing now? *Will groaned but when his friend returned back on deck with a sad look in his eye Will frowned and his eyes strayed towards Evelyn. He realized what had happened and knew that it was best in a situation like this to let things be. He'd probably only interfere. With a sigh and a shake of his head he hurried after Jack again, wanting to keep tabs on the woman.*

Eve dusted herself off angrily as he jumped overboard. "Ye bastard! Don' ye run from me ye coward!" Eve shouted over the edge of the ship looking after him. The man was handsome, but he was, so far...a pure pain in the side. If he came back up, if she had a change to get her hands around him, he was a dead ma.
As Eric came back up and boarded the ship her eyes narrowed at him, he was handsome, but NO ONE touched her like that. She began to approach him and looked him over. A tear ran down his cheek. Eve had obviously touched something that hurt him deeply. This was enough to satisfy her. She smirked, but only slightly. Perhaps she had overstepped her boundaries, she'd leave the man alone, for now.
Even HE wouldn't get away with that. "Don' ye touch me again..." Evelyn said sternly but in a much softer tone. "I don' like anyone touchin' me." She said with a deep sigh. She stood leaning agains the side of the ship once more, tossing him sideglances. If he hadn't boarded the ship and begun to fight with her, she might have liked the bloke. His deep eyes, his strong build, but it looks as if he had things weighing him down.

*As Evelyn came over to him he quickly slipped the necklace back around his neck and wiped his eyes swiftly and jumped to his feet, clearing his throat. He didn't want to appear soft to her of all people.* Im sorry I didnt mean to do that to you I just... *He said but cut off quickly not wanting to discuss his personal issues with her. But then his face grew stern again.* Ill make you a deal alright. The next time I grab you, you can kill me. And the next time you touch my things...Im going to kill you. *He said, his voice was soft but his eyes were dead serious. He shoved his hands in his pockets and glanced around, wondering if Roux saw the inncodent. Frankly he didn't feel like dealing with anymore of Jacks crew at the moment. He looked back at Evelyn and sighed.* Is there a cabin on this ship I can stay in? *He asked.* One thats preferably as far away from yours as possible.*He added beneath his breath.*[/color]

Evelyn nodded. "Agreed." Her skin felt hot, she was purely, and simply, angry. Eve placed a hand upon her hilt as she took a glance at him. It seemed what she did really affected him, it was something personal she knew that. Perhaps a memory of someone, someone she'd never learn about, the way he was angry at her.
When he asked for a cabin she was about to speak when she caught his last words. "Ye know what?" She began approaching him once again looking up at him. "Yer plenty rude ta be askin' fer a place ta stay, an' then mutterin' under ye breath like that." Evelyn wanted so badly to punch the man across the face, acting the way he was. But she resisted, and she didn't know why. "There' an empty one at the end of the hall. Ye'll be far from me in there." Eve stated brushing past him as she headed to take his seat upon a barrel.

*Eric sighed heavily and rolled his eyes as she went on about him being rude and then turning around and asking for a place to stay. He narrowed his eyes at her.* Yeah well Im damned sure you were thinking the same thing. *He stated, clearly seeing she wanted to deck him. He couldn't help but be slightly ammused by her mannerism but he was burning with anger for her none the less and he would have happily hit her back. Woman or not that didn't matter to him at the moment. Finally she let him know where he could stay and without realizing it he tipped his head to her. He blinked a moment, surprised by that. He didn't want to be polite to her! Not now. He quickly covered it up with a smirck as she rushed past him. He watched her go then with a shake of his head he found his way to the empty cabin and he plopped down face first into the bed.*She's gonna be a damn handful. *He said, his voice muffled by the pillow. He rolled over and gazed up at the ceiling, his mind going over the past events and he just shook his head annoyed.*[/color]

Eve sat on the barrel watching him leave, still heated over the whole encounter. He had some bloody nerve, she thought. It seemed for a moment, he tipped his head to her, but she shook it off, he wouldn't do that. He was too...bloody...hard headed. She bet if she even hit the man he would have hit her back. Bloody coward. Her mind tried to drift from the matter but it came back.
Evelyn thought deeply for a moment. Why was he so upset? What were those things on his neck anyway? Thinking over Eric's last few comments she shrugged. Of course she wanted a cabin far from him NOW. Maybe if the man had come on with a bit of manners she would have thought otherwise, but no, instead he picked a fight with her and ended up grabbing her collar. What kind of a man did that? Yes, she had found him attractive at first glance...but his whole demeanor had completely put her off, at least...she thought it did.
She shook her head. NO, of course she hated him. Was he even going to stay? She'd prefer that he'd leave, really...or did she?

*He glarred. How could she just toss his necklace overboard without a care in the world? But then she didn't know it's meaning to him, she probably figured he wouldn't miss it so could he really blame her? No, of course he had to blame her! He shook his head and threw his legs over the side of the bed and placed his chin upon his fists. She was certainly attractive...no what was he thinking? Her attractiveness was certainly overshadowed by her rather rude personality. And in his mind no one could be more beautiful than Ashley, the woman who haunts his past. Who was this new lady to come sizing him up like that? He sighed and glanced at the doorway. He still had a chance to get off the ship if he wanted...maybe he should. Should he?*[/color]

Fishy smiled back, and when Diana kissed his cheek, he turned bright red. "Come on," he said playfuly. "I'm sure we will find someplace." And, taking her hand, ran off down one of the streets. He quickly got the two of them something to eat, but didn't waste a second more than he needed to. "Come on, whats dinner without a dance?" he said with a strange twinkle in his eye, and he led Diana off again. They found themselves in a quiet clearning, just within the trees, behind the pub that was lit by soft candle light. Music and singing carried from the building to were they were standing, but otherwise the two were alone.

:Kora and Linea spoke for some time about their doings in the last while. Kora, who was indeed a general in the army, was cast out and ordered dead the last time Linea had spoken to her for Kora had killed the king. It was now time for them to speak of harsher subjects.:
Linea, there is more. I've only been a pirate for a little while now..a year at best. I had my own crew and everything, but then, after going to a town, where I knew my father was living out of sight, I killed him, and had to flee. It was he who killed ma and my brother. That man did not need the air in his lungs to breathe, he was just pure evil. So, for their blood, he paid dearly with his own. I'm so sorry Linea, I shouldn't have done it, but I couldn't live knowing that their murderer was going unchallenged.
:Linea looked at the tears on her cousin's face and hugged her fiercely.:
My dear, ye have nothin' te be sorry fer. Ye at least gave ]im a quick an' clean death, somethin' I would not have done. We've changed the both o' us...an' there's no goin' back te what we used te be. Better te live our lives an' te not think on our past. Now that this is out o' the way, be there some good news?
:Kora smiled a bit before she answered.:
Well my dear, would you like to meet the captain who's kept your cousin afloat? A great man he is, kind of nutty at times, but still great. His name's Jack, I mean, Captain Jack Sparrow.
:Linea's eyes widened at his name.:
Ye mean te tell me cousin, ye be sailin' with the likes of 'im? Oh my dearie, that be somethin' else. Methinks it would be a pleasure te meet such a man, even if he be missin' a few marbles.
:With that, they grabbed their cloaks, Linea her pack and left the house. They headed quickly to the ship to see if the captain was on board or not. If he wasn't, they'd just have to wait.:
