Commodore Norrington had all of his affairs in order. Captain Sparrow had indeed escaped and he was now preparing to set sail. He had his crew together and they were loading the Royal Navy's new ship, The Falcon, the ship received its name because its speed was a close match to that of the Black Pearl the fastest ship in the Caribbean. Norrington didn't get to marry dear Elizabeth as he had hoped but he was still happy none the less.

Once the ship was fully stocked for their trip they set sail after the Black Pearl. Norrington stood at the helm in a dignified stance. His first mate calling orders while he stood and oversaw the crew's efforts. The ship was out at open see within the hour. James Norrington was left to his thoughts as the crew did what they were so accustomed to doing. They sailed for several days on end with no sigh of the Black Pearl but finally as they were arriving near their first port Norrington saw Black sails on the horizon. The Black Pearl was going to dock at Tortuga to restock. James decided that it would be easier if he took a long boat to land with only a few sailors to keep an eye on the group of Pirates they didn't want to barge into the only pirate port and be out numbered.

James rounded up a small group of sailors and they stripped of their Royal Navy uniforms and wore only old breeches and loose fitted shirts. They used creative methods to make them appear more like pirates. They loaded into the boat and rowed to the island. James gave specific orders to keep an eye out for Sparrow and not to be seen if you are act as if you are a pirate nothing more.

His men exited the long boat and spread about the island they were to meet back at the boat as the Black Pearl prepared to set sail so they could leave and continue their hunt for Jack and his crew. James went straight for a pub that he figured Jack would be at. He saw two of his crew there enjoying drinks as wenches were all over them. James looked around at the around the crowed trying to spot Jack.

Luna Rayne was twenty five years of age and had lived in Tortuga since her parents died when she was twelve. She wasn't born here. No she was born in Port Royal a settlement of the King of England but her parents left Port Royal because of a bounty on their heads that was from a false accusation. They traveled on a ship for some time but eventually with Luna being so young they had to settle somewhere and the only place they were safe was Tortuga. Luna lived in Tortuga from the time she was ten until now.

To prevent from having men all over her like they were with the town whores she dressed in male cloths. She wore black breeches with a black undershirt and a grey loose over shirt. She had raven hair and deep green hair and her skin was a beautifully deep tan. She was muscular for a woman but not to much just enough to get her by and to hold her own in the bars.

She walked toward her evening hang out. She was a regular though she didn't drink much she could hold her liquor she walked in and saw that it was more crowded than the night before. Meaning that there was a ship in the harbor, she sat down at an empty table and ordered a mug of ale. She slowly drank her ale while watching the rest of the town' folk and sailors have their fun.

She looked around studying the faces of those she didn't know. As she looked she saw a man with dreadlocks and strange beads in his hair. She recognized him as an old customer Captain Jack Sparrow. She smirked to her self and continued on her search for new people to try and strike a conversation with. She saw one man that caught her eye. He was dressed nicer that most of the others and had cleaner hair. His skin was tanned but not as much as most of the other sailors. He had dark brown hair and blue eyes he was clean cut and well mannered but he seemed oddly familiar to her but she couldn't place where she new him. She sat and watched him for quite some time until he glanced up and saw her she turned her head as he did.

James found him an empty table and looked around at the poor excuse for a pub. He saw Jack sitting in a corner covered in with wenches. He cringed as he watched the wenches swoon over Jack. James looked around the pub watching as the men fought and argued. James turned and glanced and saw a woman watching him. He turned away but realized what he had seen and turned back to see the woman was looking away.

He saw that the woman was indeed rather attractive. He watched as she looked up at him. They made eye contact and she couldn't look away. He found himself frozen on the spot. "How could someone so beautiful be living in a place such as this" he thought to himself.

He stood from his seat and walked toward the woman. She sat still unwilling to move and wanting to learn more about this man that approached her. He smiled as he sat down and said, "Miss I saw you watching me? You seem oddly familiar have I met you before. Oh forgive my manners my name is Commodore James Norrington."

The girl looked up at him and said, "James, is it really you? What are you doing in a place like this?"

She asked exasperated. James looked at her oddly then he realized that she did seem familiar. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry what?"

The woman smiled and said, "It's me Luna Rayne, the descendent of Marcus and Evelyn Rayne, previous commoner of Port Royal."

James then seemed to recognize her and said, "My God. What are you doing living here?"

Luna looked away and said, "My parents were marked for death many years ago. You knew that. They ran away from their fate and we ended up here and I've lived here since I was ten and I'm twenty five now. This is not exactly where I want to live and I'm not marked for death. I was too young when the accusation was made to be considered a candidate for hanging."

James looked away remembering all to well that her parents had been marked for death on false accusations made by a man of higher social standing than her family. He did indeed remember having to try and hunt them down at their home only find that they had ran away. He was glad to see her alive and well.

Luna sighed and said, "Well it's been nice seeing a friendly face around here. But I'm going to have to turn in for the night. I have work to do in the morning."

James smiled and said, "Luna why don't you come with me and my crew. You can get off this Island and come back to Port Royal with me. You can start your life over I can help you pack tonight and we can be off by morning."

Luna looked at James in shock but excitement and said, "You mean it. You'll take me off this God forsaken rock?"

James nodded and she jumped from her seat and gave him an excited hug and kissed him on the cheek. She realized what she had done and pulled away blushing and said, "I'm sorry. I…"

James smiled and said, "Don't worry about it it's quite alright. Here let us go and pack your things we can have you back at the ship by morning."

Luna stood and waited for the Commodore to do the same. James stood up and waited for her to lead the way. She smiled at him and walked swiftly from the pub. James followed Luna to her little broken shack outside of town. He was shocked to see that she lived in such horrible conditions but looked so well. Luna walked inside and James followed he saw that she didn't have very many possessions and it wouldn't be hard to get her things to the ship.
