Once again as I have stated before I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean...crud
"Now, that we have Jack with us again, what do we do?"
Everyone looked over at Captain Sparrow for directions. "Don't look at me!" the Captain said, waving his bottle of rum like a weapon. "I'm not the captain of this ship," he said, his voice dripping with malice as he pointed towards his former first mate. "He is."
Barbossa glared back at Jack. "I was the captain of the Pearl, until you sunk her!"
Jack's face looked like a tomato. Elizabeth swore she could see steam coming out of his ears. No one insults Captain Jack Sparrow and gets away with it. Jack rose out of his seat and drew his sword, Barbossa doing the same but Ivy stood in between them. "Get out of the way Ivy," Jack spat. "That man deserves to die."
Ivy jumped when Jack raised his voice, but held her ground anyways. "Jack, we are never going to get the heart of Davey Jones back if we fight amongst ourselves! We have to stay together!"
Barbossa lowered his weapon and extended his hand towards Jack. "Truce?" he asked with a little difficulty.
Jack just stared at Barbossa's hand and looked back at Ivy who was still glaring at him. "Fine."
Ivy smiled and sat back down next to Elizabeth. "Good boy Jack," the blonde said to the steaming Captain.
"Feh," he replied, shooting deathly glares at Barbossa.
"Well, now that's out of their system, we still don't know where we are going though," Will quipped.
Jack rolled his black rimmed eyes. "Do you always have to point out things like that?"
Will grinned. "Yes I do."
Ivy rolled out a map onto the desk. "So when that last time we saw the heart?"
"You sound like my father when I've lost something," Elizabeth stated, rolling her eyes.
"I told you before, I put it in the jar of dirt and then I never saw it again, "Jack said, putting the rim of the bottle up to his lips again.
"And that was also the last time we saw our friend Norrington too," Ivy said tapping her chin with her index finger. "I'll try to figure out what happened."
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow at her new friend. "How are you going to do that?"
"Just ask for a few favors from my friends who are still angels. They can show me where on the map the Commodore went. But I will need a rather large map." Ivy said frowning.
Jack leaned back in his chair and tipped his hat over his eyes. "You can use the Captain's Quarters love. It's got a large enough map."
Barbossa snapped his head towards the laid-back pirate. "You mean my quarters?"
Jack grinned from underneath his well-worn hat. "No, mine. No one takes my place. Not even you Barbossa."
--------------------------
Hours later, Captain Sparrow stumbled into his newly commandeered room. Ivy was no where to be found, so he sat on the edge of the bed and pulled off his belt and vest. As he started to pull off his shirt, he heard a small sigh. Jack walked over to the large deck chair to find Ivy curled up in a little ball in the chair, fast asleep. "Ivy, you work way too hard love." Smiling, Jack picked the small angel up and carried her out onto the deck, taking her back to her room she shared with Elizabeth. Ivy squirmed in his arms and almost tipped Jack over. "Whoa, easy love," he groaned. Ivy finally settled in his arms and pressed her face against Jack's shirt. Jack set her down very gently in her bed and pulled the sheets around her. Ivy mumbled something incoherent in her sleep and turned onto her side as Jack silently slipped out of the door.
---------------------------------
The next day, Ivy was surprised to find herself in her bed and not at Jack's desk. As she stumbled into the galley, Jack strolled up to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Sleep alright love?"
Ivy looked up at Captain Jack's face. "Did you carry me into my room last night?"
"Now what would give you that idea?" he asked, flashing her one of his famous grins.
Ivy smiled back and started to walk away from him, but he pulled her back to face him. "What are you doing Captain?" she asked, pouting her lips.
Jack raised an eyebrow. "Your eyes have changed colors. Are they supposed to that?"
Ivy's hands flew up to her face. "What do you mean?" she asked.
"You're eyes were purple when I met you, now they're brown," Jack said frowning, causing the beads in his hair to clink.
Ivy ran over to a piece of glass on the floor and picking it up, looked at her reflection. Her once bright purple eyes had taken on the color of Jack's rum. "Well, they're not supposed to do that."
Will stumbled into the room, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "What's going on?"
"It seems like Ivy's transforming into a more human form," Ragetti said from the other side of the room.
"How do you figure that one Ragetti?" Jack asked, raising an eyebrow at the one-eyed pirate.
Ragetti cleared his throat as he stepped towards Ivy. "You see, angels don't normally look the same as humans, so now that she's one of us mortals, she has to look like us too." Everyone stared at the pirate.
"How did you figure that out?" Pintel asked.
"Well, I've been reading the Bible!" he said, smiling at his counterpart.
--------------------------
"Ivy, please?"
"No."
"Why not?"
Ivy sighed. "I am not going to tell you which rule I broke, alright?"
Elizabeth crossed her arms over her chest. "Aww, please?" she asked, pouting.
"No," came the simple reply.
The brunette glared and followed her new friend into the room they shared. "Why not? It's not like you're going to get in more trouble if you do!"
Ivy whirled around. "I am not telling you!" the blonde screamed. "Sorry Elizabeth, I'm confused about the rule, that's all."
Elizabeth grinned evilly. "What about the rule?"
"I know for a fact that I did not break that rule," the brown eyed angel said, sighing. "I swear that I did not fall in love with a human, but they told me I did."
"So that's the rule you broke?"
Ivy's eyes flew open. "Oops..."
"So, who's the lucky guy?" Elizabeth asked, smirking.
Ivy frowned. "That's what's got me confused," she said, pacing around the room. "I don't know who it is."

(Authoress' notes: There's a longer chapter finally. But I'm a little disappointed. If I can have at least 6 or 7 reviews, I'll write longer chapters. Please? They are what give me ability to keep writing this. If there aren't any reviews, I lose my confidence in my story, and then Ivy's story will never be finished. So please review. Thank you.
