Yay for another chapter! I would like to thank Emma D., Serena Maroon, Ramdom9747649, and Valerie Michaelis for reviewing, it really makes me feel so much better about my writing! Alright here it is, Enjoy!

With every step I took, I felt as if the world was slowly opening up to me. I began to break free of the shell that had been built up around me, occasionally giggling randomly.

'How's this for your little caged beast, eh Gilette?' I thought to myself.

Once we reached the docks, Jack led us down behind a wood post and turned. Will was the first to speak.

"We're going to steal a ship? That ship?!" he exclaimed pointing at the Dauntless. Jack looked slightly anoyyed.

"Commandeer! We are going to commandeer...that ship." continued Jack, pointing at the Interceptor. "...nautical term."

Will looked offended at the asumption that we were going to commit any sort of crime, but the pirate gave him no time to butt in.

"Now, one question about your buissness boy, or there's no use going. This girl...how far are you willing to go to save her?"

"I'd die for her!"

"Oh good! No worries then. And you..." he finally adressed me. "I asume your wanting to go, having following us this far, but I do not intend on being responsible for anything that happens to you, got it?"

"I don't expect a body gaurd Captain, I can take care of myself."

Will left and made his way toward a longboat on the shore, having already been informed by Jack what we were going to do. I stepped forward to follow, but was quickly pulled back by my arm. The concerned expression on Jack's face startled me.

"I'm serious luv. This isn't going to be some story book adventure. This is real, and either one of you could die. Whether you can take care of yourself here or not, the open ocean is not some fancy vacation route for Noble Women."

"Then I suppose it's a good thing I wasn't born a noble woman, huh?"

His determined expression lifted and we both traced Will's footsteps, while he muttered in my direction, "Don't forget, you still owe me your life darling. And a little something else too...".

I only rolled my eyes, remembering our broken moment from the day before.

I have to admit, Jacks plan to get us to the Dauntless was pretty incredible. I'd never have thought such an insane plan could work so incredibly well. Will, on the other hand, seemed stuborn to agree.

"This is either madness, or brilliance."

"Isn't it remarkable how often those two traits coincide?" he retorted, and I sniggered.

Moments later, we had climbed the side of the Ship and the two men strode forward to claim it as our own.

"Everyone stay calm! We are taking over the ship!" shouted Jack.

"Aye, avast!" added Will stupidly.

All the men aboard the Dauntless (about eight), laughed loudly at this prospect, and my eyes fell on one man in particular, at the head of them all.

"This ship cannot be crewed by two men and a..." the Lieutenant stopped when he realized it was me standing before him. "Josephine?" His shocked expression amused me, untill I realized what he was paying so much attention to, that is.

"Your new atture is quite fitting. Perhaps you will see to aquiring one for our upcoming nightly festivities, hmm?"

I couldn't believe that he had the nerve to talk to me that way infront of Jack and Will, and all those Navy Men! My temper was easily past blowing point, but before I could do any damage, our new accuiantance cut me off.

Jack drew his pistol and cocked it, pointing it at Gilette's head. "We are on a tight scheduale, as you can see, so if you don't mind."

"You'll never make it out of the Bay." he chuckled in response.

"Son...I'm Captain Jack Sparrow, savvy?

Soon all the men were piled into the long boat, and Gilette was the last man on our ship. He gestured towards me with an annoyed tone.

"Hurry up Josephine."

"I'm sorry?"

"Get in!"

"Oh I see. You suffering under the delusion that I am here as prisoner? No, I'm here of my own accord, to save my sister. And to escape from your disgusting fantasies of course."

His entire face contorted with rage, and he jumped toward me, trying to wrap his hands around my neck.

Jack and Will much have been watching the spectacle, because within seconds they were on either side of Gilette, keeping him from harming me. I couldn't tell which of the two was more enraged at the attempted actions of the Lieutenant.

"Josephine, If you do not come with me back to shore.."

"You'll what?" I cut him off, walking to him and quickly shoving my boot to his gut. He fell backward off the side of the ship, but to my dismay, he landed in the longboat down below.

"Farewell Lieutenant!" I puppy waved at him, batting my eyes lashes.

It was taking longer than I expected, preparing the ship to set sail. Looking back with worry, I saw that the Interceptor was sailing over to us. Norrington, and somehow, Gilette, were leading the men out toward our position.

"Here they come!" I shouted, and Jack only smirked. He made his way down from the helm, grabbing two ropes and handing one to Will.

"We'll be commandeering that ship instead. You'll be riding with me luv." Clearly he assumed that I would just give into to anything he wanted, but I wasn't letting him catch on that quick.

"I don't think so Captain." I said, gripping a third rope and praying I wouldn't make a foll of myself. We waited there for the memers of the opposite crew to board, and when they did, the Commodore's voice rang out.

"Search every cabin, every hold! Down to the bilges!"

Gilette's angry tone added on, "And when you find my Fiance, get her by my side."

We took that as our cue to get out of there. Will and Jack left first, and I sprung after them.

The feeling of gliding between the two ships, over the sea, couldn't be matched. I was more free in that moment then I had been in my ebtire life. It was over much too soon, and I landed gracefully on the deck. Jack raised his brow, apparently impressed, before running up to the helm. I followed him, so as to see the shocked faces of my old allies.

Will began hacking away at the lines tieing the two ships together, and Jack began steering us out of Port Royal. James realized too late what was happening, and shouted frantically at the Navy, "Sailors! Back to the Interceptor, now!

It was useless, we were already too far ahead, and they had no means of catching up. Jack removed his hat and began waving at the two angry leaders.

"Thank you Commodore, for getting us ready to make way! We would have had quite a difficult time with it ourselves!"

I watched in delight as Norrington's face fell with the realization that this had been the pirate's plan all along. Gilette looked even more outraged than before, if that was possible, which only led me to taunt him further. Thinking for a moment, I looked at my left hand and thought, 'Why the bloody heck not?'

Making sure the Lieutenants eyes were set firmly on me, I yanked off the engagement ring and chucked it with all my strength, into the water. He was possitively seething.

"Looks as though you were right Lieutenant! I tried to escape, and now there goes Josephine Swann, sinking further and further into the abyss, with all memory of her that I hold!" I shouted across to him.

The entire Navy opened fire at us, and Will ducked stupidly, but they wouldn't reach us, we were too far ahead, I grinned widely to myself, realizing that the caged 'Josie' I had always despised was gone. This was the beggining of my new life, as whoever I wanted to be, and my decision, between royalty, and rogue-ery.

OMG, I love this chapter! I really hope you all do too! It was such a joy to write, and honestly, I just hope you all loved it! You could always review and let me know...just a suggestion...;)

LOVE, PNC
