When Jack got to the Pearl, Barbossa wasn't there and he didn't even notice the girl standing there. Right now he had a one track mind.. So now Jack had to figure out if Barbossa was on the ship or in town..
Jack turned to the side and looked at his shoulder where he felt something touch him.. Are those little buggers back already?? But then he heard a young girls voice and he turned to look at her.. "Aye.. I'm lookin' fer the cap'n of this here vessel.. You seen him??"

Jenna felt a little nervous as the man standing on the dock turned to her and replied to her question. Blushing slightly for no good reason, she said, "I saw a man and his crew a bit earlier. They all went into town to buy some food, I think. It seems like they are on a journey somewhere."
Jenna paused and looked around to see if any of the crew members were still hanging out around the dock. When she didn't see anyone, she continued, "There was a man with a monkey on his shoulder and with an apple in his hand. He looked like the captain of the ship, but I'm not sure. Do you know him?"

Jack nodded and smirked as the girl spoke but said nothing.. Of course they were on a journey.. They were searching for him so they could get the charts to the fountain of youth.. Jack played with the beads in his beard.. "Aye.. I know him.. And yer wrong.." When the girl only looked at him confused but said nothing he turned to look at her.. "I'm the cap'n of this here ship... Savvy?" He flashed her a gold toothed grin before making his way to the gangplank.

Jenna was a bit confused. She could tell that there was a lot to know about this man. He obviously had some sort of relationship with this large ship, but she had no idea how she knew the ship and its members. And was he really the captain of the ship? She wasn't sure.
Not about to let him escape, she hurried quietly after him and started to follow him to the gangplank. When he turned around to see what she was doing, she asked, "May I come with you? Maybe I could help you in some way?"

Jack got half way up the gangplank before he sensed the girl behind him. He turned around and the quick movement made him sway a bit.. Her offer made him raise an eyebrow. Normally he'd say no to working with a girl like this.. Or any girl for that matter. He learned his lesson with Anna-Maria and Elizabeth Swann. But perhaps she could be of some use. "Aye.." He said and went to the top deck to the helm. He gripped a spoke and smirked.. His baby was back where it belongs.. "I need a crew, supplies and someone to distract that fuzzy face Barbossa.." He turned to the girl.. "What can ye do fer me, love?"

Barbossa walked back to the docks after getting what he needed in town. He found Jack Sparrow talking to the young woman.
Figures he thought. The first thing Sparrow does when making port is looking fer wenches. He won't ever change.
"Jack Sparrow", Barbossa said walking up to them.

Before the girl even had a change to answer, Jack seen Barbossa approach them. "Good job distractin' him.." He muttered sarcastically to the girl and made his way to Barbossa. "Oi.. Glad ta see ya kept me ship nice and warm fer me.. I'll be takin' her back now though.." He said and waved his hands as if to shoe Barbossa off of his ship.

"Ye'll not be takin' my ship as long as I'm alive", Barbossa said taking hold of the helm.

Jack smirked.. "That could be arranged.." He placed his hand on his pistol.

Jenna watched as the man called Jack told the other man that he would be taking his ship back. Jenna could immediately tell that these two men were rivals. The two obviously knew each other quite well.
She stood rather stunned for a moment as Jack's hand went to his pistol. He wasn't actually going to shoot the other man, was he? The first man hadn't exactly been friendly to her. He had ignored her completely. And yet, for some strange reason, Jenna felt rather protective of him.
She slipped between the two men, put a hand on Jack's chest to hold him back and said, "I'll tell you what I can do for you. I can save you from murdering an innocent man. Please put your pistol away. There's really no need for that."
