*It wasn't long before Eric heard Evelyns voice rambling on to Sarah and then his eyes widened with surprise and he gasped a little bit as she told Sarah she could have him considering that she didn't want him anymore. He wondered if she really felt that way, had really stopped caring about him. Eric swallowed hard and nodded his head softly. Of course she had, after what he had said to her and how he had treated her she should hate him. Then he suddenly grunted as Evelyn said she didn't want to go on yelling anymore.* Thats like asking the Devil to heal the sick. *He said, rolling his eyes. Then his eyes narrowed a bit at her final comment. If she thought Sarah was the only one who cared than she was bloody blind! He glanced around for a moment and seriously began to ponder letting Sarah have his room, considering the fact there was a bunk shortage it seemed. He crossed his arms and sighed heavily, slumping over so he sat upon the deck with his back against the wall. Evelyn was driving him insane and he wasn't even near her. How could that even be possible?* The sooner we get to Port Royal, the better. *He said flatly, and rather unbelievably.*[/color]

Apollo eyed the Sparrows with a sort of growing amusment, then he looked at his brother, wondering if they should explain themselves now. He wasn't sure.
Instead he merely sent a small message to Hermes in his mind: "I think you may be better suited to telling Mr. Sparrow of our reasons for being here. You being as insane as he himself is." Even in thought Apollo's teasing was evident. "I will be on deck if you should have need of me, just call."
With that he bowed and left, and ran into Tobbs and Will. He smiled at the pair. Jack's best friend. And Jack's current lady. What a pair. He smiled at them calmly. He was Roux once more, but hs eyes remained their steady glowing gold. like two coins instead of eyes. They glittered like gems as he lookd at them. "Hello" was his simple introduction.

:Jack watched Apollo leave then looked at Hermes. He was waiting for a explanation of sorts. His children, well he could handle them, they were human. gods......well that took time...He wasn't very patient either:
:Finally he just said calmly: "I need to take care of this.......I'll steer this ship to follow the Pearl....you....come with me on deck and explain things...."
:Jack reached out, and in a gesture of uncomon protectiveness, took the hand of each of his children and walked out on deck with them both. He stopped once he was at the wheel, and glanced at Hermes, who had followed and then gestured to the spaces next to him, indicating Rose and Hawk should stay by him:
"Once I've got the Pearl back I'll teach ye to steer her....savvy?"
:Then he focused in on the sea, making minor adjustments......and then his eyes were on Hermes, waiting:#nosmileys

::Callisto looked from Selina to Barbossa and made a slight nod of her head: "The island is veiled from mortal eyes....only gods can find it....or immortals.......: A smile flickered over her beautiful features.:
"Like me........" her eyes flashed a glowing white, just to prove her point. She walked past Barbossa, out of the room, and indicated he should follow. On deck she walked towards the wheel of the ship:
:There she closed her eyes, and held her arms out, her hands palm down, facing the wheel. She seemed to focus on something. The wheel moved, adjusting it's settings, heading in a more north wet direction. A gentle breeze fanned out Callisto's long hair and standing there she looked quite ......immortal..and powerful. She smiled, her eyes still closed, guiding the Black Pearl......:

Sarah wasn't taken by surprised at Evelyn's ranting, though she was surprised that it all seemed targeted towards Eric. Before Sarah could respond to anything Evelyn closed the door on her face. Sarah's dizziness was really starting to kick in. She looked down towards Eric's cabin, where Evelyn had told her to stay, but decided aganist. Evelyn most likely didn't mean what she said and would skin Sarah alive if she found out she had talked to Eric. Sarah sighed, Eric seemed like a nice enough man, and seemed to favor Will a bit and Sarah would like to get to know him better. But it seemed if Sarah tried to become accquainted she be crossing some sort of line. She shook her head and again sighed. She then noticed Maria and decided to at least sit down next to her. Hello Maria, how are you? Mind if I ask you something? Sarah then went on to explain the 'situation' to Maria. Bloody 'ell, it's not like I'm trying to steal Eric from Eve, just become friends. But now she all upset. I tell you she's bloody mad!

"I can't believe he's dumping this mess onto me," Hermes groaned, following Jack out, talking more to himself than to the Sparrows. "I mean, I know this is my chosen family, but he's older, AND this is more his forte than mine...I just came here to keep an eye on him, and keep him on his toes..." Shaking his head, the god made sure no one saw him flying on deck. He looked like Orestes now, but his eyes were glimmering gold; it was clear, at least to the people who knew, that he was a god.
Hawk brightened. "Really, Dad? I mean...'m not senior enough, just joined th' crew..."
"Oh, Hawk, stoppit. You're th' cap'n's son now! Get some spine, lad!" Rose looked delighted at the prospect of steering the Pearl, then amused at Hermes talking to himself. "Y'heard th' man, Hermes, explain yourself..." She leaned against the side of the boat, arms crossed, smirking.
It was so ODD for Hermes to see Katarina's features mirrored on Rose's face, with her body in such a Jack-like pose. Katarina's beauty had been delicate, sweet, elegant, graceful; Rose's own had just begun to be tapped. It would be wild, untamed, fiery.
Hermes shook such thoughts out of his head and sat down on the edge of the railing. It would be a dangerous place to sit for a mortal, which he wasn't. The god's face held an odd mix of expectancy, hope, apprehension, and reluctance. "I suppose the story begins with the Box of Immortality..." he began slowly, his eyes fixed on Jack to see how he would take this.
And he told them. On the deck of the Pearl, surrounded by Hawk's shocked face and Rose's excited, thoughtful one, as well as Jack's enigmatic reaction, Hermes revealed to the Sparrows the secret of the Box, the truth about Callisto, and finished off with a gloomy, "By now she must have caved to Barbossa the location of the Box. We can't let him find it...the results would be disasterous...we MUST get there before him."

*Tobbs listened to Will speak of his past a bit and recount how he'd been told his father was a pirate, she smiled when he mentioned he'd accepted it, even if had taken awhile. Twas good to hear he could face what was in him...now if she could only...*
*She watched Will's eyes for what he thought and noted the curiousity in them. He wondered about her past a bit, as probably anyone who she would've told this much would...but no one knew but herself really.*
*She laughed lightly when he spoke of how he was used to listening, being a husband and all. It seemed with him she could talk, so twas good he was used to it already if she decided to tell him more.*
*When he began to speak on Jack, she furrowed her brows and looked towards the wheel, where Jack stood with Hermes. She sighed and shook her head as he finished his sentence, not taking her eyes off of the captain yet.*
"I tried trustin' 'im, I actually gave a chance for trustin' 'im and began too; in all the same day I told 'im not ta leave me...and 'e did Will...just like all the rest. But I guess it was just a matter of time is all, everyone turns their backs on me sometime. I just 'ope it wont be the same fer you, Will."
*She looked back to him and raised her brow, a teasing smile upon her lips as she placed her hand on her hip. She decided mayhap she could trust him a bit; it was a beginning at least, as she hadn't trusted anyone since her brother, which was years ago.*
"May'ap Will, I'll tell ya all that 'appened ta me soon...don' think I'm ready yet, but 'o knows; a warning- it's no fairy tale..."
*She heard Roux coming and turned to wave to him, noting his eyes radiating brilliance again. She'd have a difficult time with him and reading his thoughts in his eyes if they were this golden all the time!*
"Ahoy, Roux, 'ow be the crew? Everyone alright? And 'ows Ja-*She changed her words yet again....a nifty habit she seemed to have when it came to Jack Sparrow's name* the sparrow twins doin'? And importantly as well, 'ow are you?"
*She paused when she realized about every sentence was a question and she smiled apologetically at him.*
"Ya know, you'll 'ave to be teachin' me 'ow ta do that eye trick of yers, or watch yerself when ya do it in Tortuga...I don't doubt that 'alf the pirates there would try to wrestle you down and get yer eyes for themselves..."
*She winked at him as she teased him this time, in a cheerful mood than a gloomy one, as she'd gotten some of what was on her mind out and told to Will. She looked to Will to see what he was thinking, then back to Roux to here from him as well.*

* Maria had just started to whittle when Sarah came over. All of a sudden she started to explain the situation that was happening between Sarah and Evy. Maria really didn't have anything to say, seeing how Evylen didn't take a fancy to her either.* " She's like that, Sarah.. Ye just 'ave te get used te it. Took me a while before I got the picture." * She smiled at turned to Sarah* " So do you like Eric?" * She said playfully.*

Sarah smiled at Maria's question. She bit her lip a bit before answering. Eric is...is...I don't know, he's rather charming, ay? Sarah then sighed a bit a looked at her hands. He's in love with Evelyn though, even if they are fighting. So there's no point, is there? Sarah looked solemnly away. I thought I had Paul, but now he's gone. I had thought I might have found someone else, but he seems to be taken. He's one of those men who makes you smile though, you know?
((I'm leaving tomorrow and won't be back till Friday, I might have asked Will NPC for me, but actually-Maria- could you do it? Seeing as I'm w/ her anyway. I'll try to post tomorrow morning, but that will be my last.))

*Will glanced over at Roux as he smiled and said hello. Will tipped his head slightly and returned the smile.* Hello Roux...Apollo. *Will stated, not exactly sure how to address the God now that he knew who he truely was. In all honesty he hadn't ever expected to find himself in such a situation, otherwise he would have been better prepared. His attention then turned to Jack and his children as the three walked back out on deck and towards the wheel. Hermes followed them as well. Will smiled, glad to see the Captain was taking to fatherhood so well. It made his thoughts rush back to Port Royal and to Elizabeth. He liked being away from land for a while but he couldn't help but miss her. He almost wished he had brought her along. At times, she was great company in a sticky situation. He sighed heavily, messing with his wedding ring a bit. His eyes went back to Tobbs as she spoke again. He frowned a bit as he heard what she had to say about the Captain but then he smiled warmly.* I won't turn my back on you Tobbs. And whenever you're ready to tell me more just yank me aside. *He said with a bit of a laugh.*
*As Eric sat there, sulking about the nights events between him and Evelyn he overheard Sarah talking to the younger lass, Maria.. He glanced around a moment, wondering if anyone would see him eaves dropping but no one was paying attention to him. He tipped his head towards the hall a little more and raised a brow at Sarahs words. Honestly, he agreed with her. She seemed like a good, respectable woman and Eric didn't see why Evelyn should have any say in whether or not the two of them talked together. He stood back up and started to round the corner when he heard Marias question. He paused instantly, slipping back out of view and raised a brow at Sarahs answers.* At least someone thinks I'm charming. *He said bitterly, glancing towards Evelyns cabin. He was glad to hear he made her smile. At least he hadn't made every person he ran across on this journey cry yet. Finally he rounded the corner, walking towards the two girls as he rubbed the back of his head. It was still throbbing from where Evelyn had chucked the boot at him.* Hello. Sarah I heard your voice and thought I'd wander over. I know your in need of a cabin and so you're more than welcome to use mine. I'll bunk with Will. *He stated, tossing his head back in his friends direction.* And don't worry about Evelyn, she uh...she hates everybody. *He stated with a nod, giving a heated glance towards the womans cabin. But then he smiled and glanced back at the other two girls.*[/color]

* Maria was surprised when Eric came around the corner. When he offerred his cabin to Sarah, Maria was more suprised. She glanced towards Sarah's way smiled and nodded, as to say "accept". Eric then spoke of Evelyn about how she hated everybody. Especially me, she thought to herself. Maria wondered why Evelyn had hated her so much. Was it because she thoguht of merely a naive teen on a ship of pirates. Was it beacause she lacked the taste for alchohol. Or was it just because? Maria had noticed her mind wander and soon brought it back to reality. She turned once more to Sarah and smiled*

*Eric raised a curious brow as he saw Maria giving a nod in Sarahs direction and he grinned a little bit, wondering exactly what was meant by it. Then he smiled embarassed and blushed a little bit as the event below deck a few hours ago came back to him. Or at least a very small bit of it considering he didn't remember most of what went on in the past few hours.* I remember making a bit of an ass of myself below deck a little while ago...sorry about that. Don't honestly remember what all I did but sorry anyways. *He said, running his fingers akwardly through his hair as he looked at Maria. He laughed a little at himself. It wasn't often at all that he got drunk but when he did...he was an idiot. Slowly, he looked back at Sarah.* I'll take you back there if you want to stay there, just gotta get a few things out of it. *He stated, glancing in the general direction of his cabin.*[/color]

::Barbossa smiled, victorious. Callisto was going to take them to the island, and then he would find the Box of Immortality, and become the most feared man in the world for all eternity!::
::He calmly followed her onto the deck, all the while keeping a wary eye on her, until they reached the wheel. Callisto stood before it, spread her arms, and the ship began to change its course. At first, Barbossa wasn't sure whether he should be frightened or amazed, but he eventually decided that it didn't matter. All that mattered now was getting that Box::
::And then he would be unstoppable::
~~~
:: Damien laid his head back against the pillow, smiling to himself. The candle near the bed had long since gone out, and the room was completely dark. Perfect::
::He felt Selina's warm breath against his shoulder, and placed a gentle hand on the back of her head. She looked up at him in the dark, her black curls spilled onto his chest. He smiled and leaned down to kiss her::
"Don't be afraid tomorrow. I'll watch over you, I promise. I won't let anything happen to you...."

Sarah smiled when Eric around the corner, but hoped he hadn't heard much. She had to surpress her laughter at Maria's nodd. She was feeling a bit tired, and longed for somewhere nice to lie down. OK, thanks. She smiled at Maria and waited to follow Eric to his cabin. When she heard him apologizing for what he did last night she looked at Maria hoping for her to motion wheather or not he did something bad.

" It's alright." * She responded to Erics apology* " You only humiliated yourself in front of most of the crew, but thats all.." * She said jokingly and shaking her head, grinning* " But I forgive you for being a fool.." * Maria smiled when getting up. She brushed herself off from the wooden shavings and glanced at Sarah as she stood as well, when accepting Erics proposal to take his cabin. She had caught Sarahs glance to her, probably considering what Eric had done. * " Go on Sarah, no ones stopping you.." * She said which directed he hadn't done anyting bad*
(( Sure thing Sarah! I'll NCP you...))
