Fishy looked up at Cap'n Jack, not all-together surprised at such a site, and smiled warmly despite the storm. "Pleasure seein' ye again, cap'n, thought i might not get the chance, that i did." he said, nodding his head. He laughed and offered him a small bottle of rum.
"And as for forgeting a bigger ship? Mate, the bigger ship forgot me." he said with another grin.

Lily swore her captain was somewhat sane. Just a little bit. But when she woke in time to come up on deck and see him throw himself overboard into the watr yet again she had to consider this theory.
She helped Roux tie a rope up to the mast knotting it several times. "I swear. Sometimes the Captain worries me. Even if he is savin someone. Not natural..." She muttered under her breath, and called out to Jack
"YE CRAZY PIRATE!" She shouted.

*Will felt Elizabeth shift in her sleep, rolling over on her side so that she was no longer curled into him. His eyes blinked open sleepily and he yawned, glancing towards the small port hole as if expecting it to be bright and sunny out. But instead the storm outside was still raging on and he could still feel the ship rocking about.
He laid back into the pillow, attempting to sleep again when suddenly he heard a splash not too far off followed by the familiar voice of Roux shouting out to someone. In an instant Will was sitting up again. He carefully climbed over Elizabeth and slipped on his boots, rushing out on deck. It didn't take long for the rain to soak him through again.
He spotted Roux and Lily tying a rope to the mast and he glanced outwards, noticing Jack perched in a small boat with another young lad. Wills brow furrowed but he turned to the others to offer his help.* I'll help you get them aboad. *He stated. He grunted a little, glancing down at the Captain again.* And you think IM the rash one? *He called, helping with the rope.*

::Jack blinked up at Will and smirked then called:: "Never called ye rash lad....just stupid." He smiled at his friend and then added: "Of course ye had yer reasons...."
:he smirked at Fishy then laughed at the lad:: "Good to see ye mate.good to see you...." He calpped the lad on the shoulder and smiled then waited for the rope to be lowered so he could actually get on deck and into dry clothes:

*He couldn't help but chuckle slightly as he was squeezed from behind. Turning around in her arms he hugged Arayel quickly.* Of course we can. *One arm still around her shoulders he led her down off the deck once more, this time towards the other side of the ship, and the sleeping quarters. Going from room to room he eventually found an empty one and guided her inside. He gently lowered her into a chair before sitting down in front of it and smiling up at her in the most comforting way he could.* The storm started to get to you, didn't it? *He asked, patting her gently on the knee. Sighing slightly he gave a little stretch and began speaking once more.* You know I've always been very sure of myself, but I'm starting to wonder if my judgement was right in this instance. I'm beginning to think it might have been smarter to just stay at home as you'd said. *Very much hoping that these thoughts wouldn't worry her he smiled brightly and added to them.* But what's done is done, here we are, and we'll be just fine.

*Arayel was slightly disconcerted by the golden eyed gaze Roux gave her, but she shook it off when Mason turned in her arms, her attention now focused on him. She moved with him as he led her off, thugh she did turn slightly when she heard a splash and several people shouting. She was also a little surprised when another man brushed past them, heading for the newest commotion. Now more then ever she felt like an outsider, the only familiar thing Being Mason at her side. She followed him into an empty cabin and gave no protest as he pushed her into the chair. She nodded to his question, laying her hand over his own as it sat on her knee* Yes, it did. *she whispered meekly, still a little cold, and shivering slightly in her wet clothes.* But I'm ok, I... I just don't want to lose anyone else the way I lost her. *She watched him contemplatively as he stretched. She had never admitted it, but the real reason she'd never gone back to piracy after the death of her sister was because she had found him, and she feared losing him in a similar manner. She pursed her lips as he spoke, she didn't like it when his faith in himself was shaken.* I don't think your judgment was off darling. *She said quietly, giving him a small kiss* This crew seems like fine, friendly people to me, the Cap'n is just wary. Can you blame him? You know as well as I do that piracy isn't the most trutin' of occupations. *She carressed his face softly and nuzzled her nose against his cheek, before rising and pulling off her drenched clothing.*

Roux just laughed at the Captain and Will and threw down the rope to help Jack and Fishy on board again.
"Ye know, most sane people wouldn't be jumpin' into the sea in the middle of a storm, captain." He replied and threw his weight into lifting Jack and Fishy back overboard with help from Lily and Will.
Once the captain was back on deck, with Fishy in tow he laughed and patted Jack on the back. "Ye do enjoy scarin' the rest of the crew without mercy don't ye?" He asked and began winding the rope back up.
With another good laugh and smile he walked away, sensing privatly that the storm would move on in a few hours and all was well. It was true the wind was howling less loudly, and the rain was a bit less cold.
"I'll be below, Captain." He said and walked away, ready to go see if anything was out of place or throw around from the storm.

Lily laughed and helped Roux and Will pull Jack and Fishy back on board.
"Honestly, Captain the way you act you would think you enjoyed diving into a stormy ocean."
She laughed and then, looking at the sky and figuring it was safe to go below deck now she followed Roux and came to her own cabin, which happened to be near Mason and Arayel. She paused, wondering who had taken over the room next door and frowned.
All the same she sat down on her bed, and wrung her hair out to dry.

: Jack took a second to catch his breath and then shook his head, flinging water: "Aye...a lot of fun this is." He agreed with a smirk and glanced at the sky.
The angry fist of clouds was opening its fingers and letting in a just a bit of light. Good. Well they'd ride this storm out soon enough and then once it died down, Jack could determine just how far off course they'd been blown:::
::He went to the wheel of the shipand took over for whomever was there. He whistled softly, the melody wafting over the deck::

Fishy looked from one pirate to the next. Most of them he'd never seen before, and those few he did payed no attention to him either, all soon departing, until Fishy was standing alone in the rain. He shrugged inexpressively and sat down right were he was, and continued softly singing to himself. He didn't mind the rain much.
"Torrent rage and sea winds blow, high water all a'foam, Jack. into the storm we bravely go, at last we're heading home, Jack.
two months lost on a raging sea, water on all sides, Jack. high and low its all i see, sailing and a'wailing 'till the waves come home."

Sarah listened to Maria and watched her face as she slapped her thing. Maria love, wait here. I'm going to try to find Elizabeth, or someone who could help. Sarah rushes out onto the deck looking for someone to help. Elizabeth!? Elizabeth?

*With the help from him, Roux, and Lily the Captain and the young lad with him were safely back on board. Will glanced over at Roux and gave a lopsided grin at the comment he made about Jack. As the man walked off Wills eyes turned up towards the storm clouds that were no longer as dark or dense as they had been.
He looked over at Fishy and smiled, reaching out and slapping the lad on the shoulder.* You should find a cabin, get some rest. Rowing a boat in that storm had to of been tiring. *He said, and grinned as he too made to leave to return back to his wife in the cabin. However as he was making his way there he saw Sarah who was calling frantically for Elizabeth. His brow furrowed and he trotted over to her.* Sarah, is something wrong?[/b] *He asked, arriving before her.*

Sarah almost ran into Will. Will! It's...it's Maria...her legs...they hurt...and...and...I think she's sick...Sarah started walking towards Maria's cabin. Come have a look at her Will. Please, maybe you'll be able to help.

Roux being Roux overheard Maria and Will. He didn't do anything at first, but simply out of curiousity, followed them.
"Maybe I can be of help?" Roux suggested calmly. "I am not exactly a docter but I know a few things that might help." He gave them both a even smile.

Lily yawned and listened as the storm outside died down. Well, that was nice to know. She took out her throwing daggers and looked at them a while. Then for no other reason then she was bored, set up a bit of paper on her cabin wall and began using that as a target.
All six daggers went within the paper. She smiled, pulled daggers from the wall, and started all over again. This went on for a while and finally when the rocking of the sea had become gentle she went back on deck.
Yes the storm was clearing out nicely. She grinned and began to clean up the deck. She moped up some of the water and flung it back overboard. No need to have a deck everyone would go slipping around on, funny as that would have been to watch.
Then she spooted Jack and called over to him: "That was fun! Next time why don't we just throw ourselves overboard? Just to save time and all." She laughed, refering to the number of people overboard in one storm. "Where are we going to, Captain?"
