Jack Sparrow

[alldrenched]

I smiled and thank Ana, then I walk slowly around the Pearl, getting my bearings. Then I walk down the stairs to a broad open room where hammocks are hanging, I drop my coat and hat in Joey's lap after he takes one and I wander some of the corridors, passing Jack's open door.

(oh btw I exalted you and I asked that you didn't tell Jack that I told you about the dutchman, btdubs. Nothing else.)

I'm in here, muttering away. A breeze rolls in. I look up - there's the girl again. Oh bugger, left the door upon.

[alldrenched]

I smirk at his muttering, and the fact that he looks a bit vexed to see me,"Sorry to barge in," I wasn't sorry at all," I was wondering where my crew and I should sleep tonight?"

[boo radley]

"Erm," I stow my papers away. "You mind closing the door for a minute, luv? There's enough going around that I'm a bit worried about." Like some members of me original crew, who won't shut their fish traps about where we're headed. "Right. Have you seen AnaMaria yet about this...problem?"

[alldrenched]

I step in, closing the door behind me, and I peer about at all the odd items laying about."er, Ana," I turn staring at a map, cocking my head not recognizing it, then I notice the date, it is from before America was discovered, I make an odd face at that,"Um, Oh yes I did, she said in a hammock with the crew,but that you might have a better place for us." I pull a chair over to myself and nearer to him and sit down, throwing my legs around the back of it, I face him. I tug on my skirt to keep proper, even though I am wearing pantaloons under my dress.

[boo radley]

I stare up her skirt, pantaloons and all. "Then, well, she knows. There aren't that many places here for a person to stay, unless that person is Captain or First Mate or... I dunno. A prisoner? You could sleep up on the poop deck. It's nice and breezy up there. It might be a bit wet, but you can tell the Indian, I think his name is Leech, to give you a blanket or...something."

[alldrenched]

"Alright" I reply slowly, I slip off of the chair and stand, walking out the door and closing it behind me, "'Night" I call back after me. When I return to the hammocks I find everyone is asleep. I slip off my dress and leave it with my bag under Joey's heavy arm, he wakes when I do so and I put my finger to my lips. "Shhhush" I say and in only my slip and pants I hurry up to the now empty deck, just as I thought, we anchored after the storm.

Through the crystal water I can see the Maniot on the floor of the ocean, it isn't too deep here I reason, we are near enough to that island. I climb the railing then take a deep breath and prepare for the night chilled water, and I jump. The water is warmer than I expected, I pop onto the surface and suck in air before diving under into the Maniot, yes, no more than 15 feet below us she laid, it hurt me to see her so mangled. With one breath I made it into the narrow hallway leading to my old office, but I can't make it much further at first, I knock a few bottles of rum and the jostling frees them from the hall and they float up with me swimming right behind them. I burst back onto the surface and take in a deep breath. I dive again and this time I make it into my office, I grab at clothing, a few hard lacquered wood maps, and a bag of coins and jewels which I hadn't had the time to gather last time. And then, as I leave I grab a small oil painted silhouette.

I break the surface finally and bobbing around me are the maps and the rum bottles. I carry my bag and silhouette up with me as I climb a rope onto the ship again and I start to toss a net out to catch the rest.

[boo radley]

I hear a splash. I look out and sea the girl bobbing in the water. I shrug. One less crewmember, we're good. Then I see her reappear with gold and other items of certain value and I decide I must be a part of it. So I swagger outside and stand behind her. When she's done catching the rest of her...stuff... with the net, she turns and sees me.

[alldrenched]

I jump back startled then I smile, "Oh, hi,"is all I say, and I drop onto the deck and start to collect the things I hoisted up in the net.

[boo radley]

"And what in the matter of precious sea and whatever else the bloody hell there is are these?" I point at the stuff on my deck. After moments of pausing.... "I want half of it. Or all of it, if you're feeling generous, luv." I wink at her.
