She heard a loud slam. Her eyes shot open and she grabbed her.

Jack watched as the blade poked at Will's chest and the young woman's electric blue eyes looked at him, and then the whelp, then stayed there.

"Will, when I said 'I'll be at Tortuga, if you need me I'll be staying in a tavern' I meant 'I'm going to Tortuga, don't come find me.'" She put her sword down and closed her eyes, ready to go back to sleep.

"Lacey, Elisabeth is in danger!" Will told her.

"Pity, all that beauty gone to waist. I guess Jimmy will need to marry someone else…. Oh, sorry for your loss." She said drowsily, before yawning.

"Let me handle this mate." Jack said, stepping forward. "Pirate to pirate."

Lacey opened her eyes.

For a moment he stared at them, but soon spoke, "Love, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow and you would make a lovely addition to me crew as we sail to save the dear Miss Swann."

"What's in it for me?"

He grinned, showing his teeth. She noticed the ones that were gold. "I can give you a great deal of prophet. Gold for instances"

"Do I have your word?"

"Of course."

She seemed to be thinking about it for a moment "Will, is this why you woke me up?"

"This is very serious! Barbossa has taken her on the Black Pearl."

Jack frowned and the woman sat up straight, her brown hair put up in a pony tail. She gave him a suspicious look "Oh really? That's a good thing to know. And your sure it was Barbossa?"

"Yes!"

Jack moved aside as she put her feet in her boots and stood up in front of them "Alright, lets go."

"This is the crew you wanted me to join?" Lacey asked. Looking down the line of crew members as they all stood on the dock. "At least they have legs." She whispered to herself. She watched as her new captain walked down the line. She couldn't forget the mute named Cotton and his parrot. But her favorite had to be when her old friend Anna made her presence known by slapping their captain. Lacey could just smile and tell Jack the sting would stop in an hour or two.

"Bloody women." he muttered, walking onto the ship with his crew.

"So what's the banana for?"

Jack looked in his hand to see the yellow fruit. "I'm not quite sure, love."

"I prefer apples, but your choice is your choice."
