They were quickly taken to prison and thrown into a cell. A few men whistled at her but she just rolled her eyes and sat waiting for Jack to wake up. She quickly noticed that there was a dog that carried some keys in its mouth. All the prisoners would call the dog trying to get it close enough that they could swipe the keys. Each time the dog walked by it would ignore the, so it all seemed rather pointless to Marie. After a while Jack awoke and mumbled,

"Bugger. Jail again."

"Complaining already?" Marie asked.

"Not anymore. How terrible of me not to notice the fine company I have with me."

Marie rolled her eyes and leaned against a wall. Jack said curiously,

"While we're here we might as well get to know each other." Marie didn't comment, "Or not."

At that moment the dog decided to walk by again and once again all the prisoners tried calling it, Jack looked over and said,

"You can keep doing that forever and the dog is never going to move."

"Oh excuse us if we haven't resigned ourselves to the gallows just yet." One of them said testily.

Jack just grinned and continued,

"So what brings you to Port Royal, love?"

"I could ask you the same thing."

"I see. Are you always this distant with your criminal companions?"

"Do you always ask so many questions?" Marie replied.

"Touchy?" Jack asked confusedly.

Marie sighed and said,

"I'm sorry Sparrow. I'm a bit frustrated at the moment."

Jack refrained from correcting her about his name. He put an arm around her and said quietly,

"It's alright. It's always a bit frustrating to end up in prison."

Marie felt a little uncomfortable with Jack's arm around her but said nothing about it,

"So what do you think we'll be sentenced?" she asked hesitantly.

"I'd say a hanging, most likely." Marie sighed at that answer. "No worries love; I've been sentenced to hanging numerous times. We'll escape."

"How can you be sure?"

"I'm Captain Jack Sparrow."

Marie grinned and leaned her head back on the wall.

Suddenly they both heard a loud boom. Jack sat up saying,

"I know those guns." He quickly looked out the window and grinned as he said, "It's the Pearl."

"You're sure?" Marie looked out the window and saw it was indeed the Black Pearl.

"The Black Pearl," One of the prisoners said, "I've heard stories, she's been preying on ships and settlements for nearly ten years. Never leaves any survivors."

"No survivors? Then where do the stories come from I wonder." Jack said smiling.

Marie grinned and slid down the wall to sit once again. Jack quickly joined her and she asked,

"How long do you think this will go on?"

"Not long." Jack replied quickly.

"I hate prison. It's dull."

"Who's complaining now?" Marie rolled her eyes, "You know, I could make our stay less dull…" He said as he ran a finger down her jaw. She jerked away and said,

"I'm sure you could."

Before Jack could reply a canon flew through the other cell. The prisoners quickly fled from the prison saying,

"My sympathies friends, you've no manner of luck at all."

They both rolled there eyes in frustration and sighed. After a few minutes Marie asked softly,

"Why didn't you tell those idiots I was on the ship?"

He looked over at her smiling and said,

"I would think it would be obvious. If I had been successful in commandeering the Interceptor, I would've needed help. And besides that, you're easy on the eyes, love."

Marie looked away when he said that. Why does he always do that? She wondered to herself. Pirate. She thought rolling her eyes. She leaned her head back and was about to fall asleep when she heard Jack get up. He picked up the bone and walked to the door of the cell. Marie almost laughed when Jack began calling the dog, but stopped smiling when the dog actually began to approach Jack. Just before Jack could reach the keys a door flew open and the dog ran off leaving Jack and Marie utterly disappointed.

Two burly men walked in one of them saying,

"This ain't the armory."

"Well, well, well…look what we have here, Twiggy. Captain Jack Sparrow." He spat at Jack and Marie jerked slightly.

Twigg said "Last time I saw you; you were all alone, on a godforsaken island, shrinking into the distance. His fortunes aren't improved much,"

"Worry about your own fortunes, gentlemen. The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers." Jack said.

The other man grabbed jack by the neck through the bars. Marie gasped when she saw his arm was only bones in the moonlight. Jack's eyes widened when he saw it and he said curiously, "So there is a curse, that's interesting."

"You know nothing of hell," He whispered angrily. He let go of Jack and Marie asked quietly,

"Are you alright?"

"Ya, love. I'm alright."
