DISCLAIMER! - I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean! I just have a large obsession with it! I only own my OC Rebecca Swann!

The next morning I was rudely, by a guard yelling at me.

"Get up!" he yelled and I blinked my eyes a couple time trying get my surroundings. 'Where am I' I thought groggily and then I realized where I was. Jail. Slowly I got up off the hay seeing that Will was already standing outside if the cell his hands cuffed together.

"Where are you taking her?" Elizabeth asked worriedly grabbing my arm and the guard huffed annoyed

"Lord Beckett wishes to speak with her" he said bitterly and I looked back at Elizabeth, giving her a reassuring look.

After she let me go I walked out of the cell slowly looking at Will curiously, but he wouldn't make eye contact. 'Well fine' I thought I don't want to make eye contact with you either'

Soon enough Will and I were dragged up to the large that my father usually worked in but now it was more than likely being occupied by the devil himself.

"Hold them here" one of the guard told the other guard as he went up to a large door and knocked "Lord Beckett the prisoners you ordered" I heard guard one say and a few moments later we were pulled into the large office.

"Those won't be necessary" Beckett said point at our chains and the guard quickly took them off before leaving us and "Lord" Beckett. "The East India Trading Company is in need of your services" Beckett said to us handing Will a small glass of an amber liquid, but Will just stared at it. "We wish for you two to act as our agents in a business transaction with a mutual friend" he said putting the glass down when Will didn't take it "Captain Jack Sparrow" he finished and my heart skipped a beat.

"More acquaintance than friend" Will said "How do you know him?" he asked and Beckett smirked walking over to the fireplace.

"We've had dealings in the past" he said picking up a branding iron with a red hot 'P' at the end "We both left our marks on another" he said and I glared at his back

"What mark did he leave on you?" I asked coldly and I saw freeze for a moment before turning around to walk to his desk.

"By your efforts Jack Sparrow was set free. I would like you to go to him and recover a certain property in his possession." He said

"Recover?" Will asked "At the point of a sword?" and I bit my lip to stop myself from laughing, Will could never beat Jack in a sword fight, even if Will was an amazing teacher.

"Bargain" Beckett said smirking as he pulled papers out of a wooden box "Letters of Marque. You will offer what amounts to a full pardon - Jack will be free, a privateer in the employ of England" he said and I shook my head

"Somehow I doubt Jack will consider employment the same as being free" Will said coldly and Beckett put the letters back into the box.

"Freedom" he scoffed "Jack Sparrow is a dying breed. The world is shrinking. The blank edges of the map filled in. Jack must find his place in the New World or perish. Not unlike you, Mr. Turner. You, your fiancée, and her sister here, face the hangman's noose." He said I bit my cheek

"So you get both Jack and the Pearl?" I asked and Beckett looked at me confused

"The Black Pearl?" Beckett asked

"The property that you want that he possesses" Will said and Beckett shook his head

"A ship? Hardly. The item in question is considerably smaller and far more valuable. Something Sparrow keeps on his person at all times: a compass?" he asked and both Will and my eyes got wide and Beckett smirked "Ah, you know it. Bring back that compass, or there's no deal" he said and he dismissed us. Letting Will and I prepare for our long journey to find Jack Sparrow, to save my sister.

As soon as I was changing into my more comfortable dress Will and I made our way back to the jail with my father in tow. He wasn't too happy with the idea of me going gallivanting after pirates again but as soon I as I mentioned the fact that if I didn't both of his daughters would face the hangman's noose and he immediately shut up. As we made our way down the jail cell stairs a guard frantically tried to stop us.

"You're not…" he stuttered as Will pushed passed him going straight to Elizabeth's cell crouching next to her holding her hands through the bars "You can't be here!" he shouted

"I think you'll find that he can" my father growled and the guard stiffened

"Mr. Swann" he said harshly and my father's eyes narrowed

"Governor Swann, still!" he said "You think I wear this wig to keep my head warm?" he asked rhetorically and I shook my head pushing passed the guard to talk to Elizabeth.

"Jack's compass?" she asked "What would Beckett want with that?" and Will shook his head

"It doesn't matter." He said "We are to find Jack and convince him to return to Port Royal and in exchange the charges will be dropped" Will said

"No we must find our own avenue to secure your freedom" our father said and Will looked at him

"Is that a lack of faith in Jack… Or in me?" Will asked and my father rolled his eyes

"You would risk your life to save Sparrow's does not mean he would do it for anyone else" he said bitter and I felt a pang of hurt in his word, knowing that he was speaking the truth would Jack actually help us. "Now where is that dog with the keys?" my father asked turning around to start whistling

"I believe in you" Elizabeth said sincerely turning Will's face to look at hers "Both of you" she said glancing up at my and I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from crying. "Where will you find?" she asked after a moment

"Tortuga" I said

"We will start there and I won't stop looking till I find him." Will said "And then I intend to return so that I can marry you" he said sweetly and I smiled slightly at his words. They were so in love and nothing would ever change that.

"Properly?" Elizabeth asked happily, especially for a woman in her position.

"With your leave, if you still have me" he said and Elizabeth smirked caressing his face

"If it weren't for these bars I'd have you already" she said boldly and I had to hold back a gag. I loved romance with all my heart but this was too much. It was obvious that it was too much for my father also for he broke off a candle stick holder from the grimy walls of the jail breaking the intense gaze that was happening between Will and Liz. "I will wait for you" she whispered

"Keep a weather eye on the horizon" he whispered and they were close enough to kiss, but at the last moment Will tore away from her and quickly took my hand dragging me up the stairs of the jail. Not letting my say good bye to my older sister.

Tortuga

Once Will and I finally made it to Tortuga it was day light. The only people who were out and about were the wenches getting ready for their nightly shifts, and the sailors or pirates more so, that were preparing for another long journey out on the open sea.

"Where do you propose we start?" Will asked glancing around the docks and port area for any familiar faces, and I shrugged doing the same.

"Maybe you could start with some random sailors, they might know something" I suggest and Will nodded and I laced my arm through his. Even if it was daylight I was still terrified of these men. I had no idea who was drunk or not.

"Hey you!" Will barked making an older gentleman turn to us

"What?" the man grumbled looking at my peculiarly and I cleared my throat

"We are looking for Jack Sparrow" I said boldly and the man quirked an eyebrow "Have you seen him?" I asked and the still looked confused

"Captain Jack Sparrow?" He asked and I nodded this might be easier than I thought, and the man shook his head "Hadn't been thought about, thought he was dead" he said and my heart broke a little bit. Jack couldn't be dead, I told myself as Will thanked the man and pulled me away.

"He's not dead Becca" Will assured me and I nodded Will was right Jack wouldn't let himself get killed.

"I know" I said spotting another man who looked promising "Excuse me sir" I said politely and the man looked at me with a disgusting smile but I ignored it.

"Yes missy what can I do for ye?" the man asked as Will came up behind me and placed a hand on my lower back. I knew he meant nothing by it, it was purely for show so the man would get the wrong idea.

"Have you seen or heard anything about Captain Jack Sparrow?" Will asked and the man glared

"Please sir" I pleaded and the man looked back to me "I am looking for him" I said and the man smiled again

"Singapore that's what I heard" the man said and my heart felt lighter "Drunk with a smile. Sure as a tide, Jack Sparrow turned up in Singapore" the man said and I smiled. "Thank you" I said kindly as I laced my arm through Will's as we walk to the next man.

We had been on the docks for over two hours with little luck. Every person had a different rumor about where Jack was, and I could tell that Will was starting to get flustered.

"Maybe we should head into town and see if the wenches know anything" I offered lightly and Will looked down at me

"That is a perfect plan" he said with a smile and I smiled back lightly as we walked off into the town square. Hopefully some of the women around town will know where he is at. As soon as we got into town we both started looking for face we knew. Even if most of the men were at the dock at this time, maybe there would be someone we knew getting supplies.

"See any one we know?" Will asked just as I spotted the red head and the blonde wench that we had met last time we were in Tortuga. Scarlet and Giselle I believe were their names.

"Yes in fact I do" I said looking over at the two women and Will nodded walking us over to the two women

"Excuse me" Will said politely and the women turned around just as I unlaced my arm.

"Well hello there handsome is there something we can help you with?" Scarlet asked sweetly

"Yes, there is have you seen Jack around?" he asked and the women looked at each other there attitudes completely changed

"Jack Sparrow?" Giselle asked and Will nodded, and they both shook their heads

"Haven't seen 'im month" Scarlet said

"When you see him, will you give 'im a message?" Giselle asked before both of the girls slapped Will on the cheeks, and then walked away like nothing had happened

"Are you alright?" I asked taking Will's face in my hand looking at his very red cheeks

"Yea I'm fine" he grumbled and I took my hand off his face looking at him confused. I knew he was upset, but I didn't ever think it was with me.

"Let's head back to the docks maybe there is someone we missed" I said quietly and Will nodded, offering me his arm, but I just walked away.

"Becca!" he called when I was just a few feet ahead of him

"What?" I asked quietly still walking forward

"Is everything alright?" he asked now he knew that I was also upset

"Everything is perfectly fine" I said giving him the cold shoulder "But I don't know what is the matter with you" I added quietly and Will froze, but I kept walking. Not wanting to stop he obviously didn't want to be hear with me so the faster we find someone who knows where Jack is the fast he can get back to Elizabeth. To think that I thought Will and I were friend, no brother and sister is more like it, I thought to myself as I saw a dark man who we didn't question. Quickly I walked over to him. "Excuse me sir!" I called and the man looked up from the net he was repairing.

"Can I help you" the man asked and I noticed this was the first male not to check me out.

"I do hope so' I said as Will caught up to us, and as he stood behind me he place his hand on my back. "Have you seen or heard anything about Jack Sparrow?" I asked pleadingly, this man felt like he was our last hope, and the man shrugged.

"Can't say about Jack Sparrow, but this island just south of the straits where I trade spice for... delicious, long pork." He said obviously day dreaming about the food "Cannot say about Jack. But you'll find that ship there. A ship with black sails." He finished and my ears perked up. 'Black sails' I thought to myself 'the Pearl had black sails'

"Can someone take us there?" Will asked taking me out of my thoughts. Will obviously had the same thoughts I did.

"Of course come along" the man said as he stood up leading us on to the boat.

Hopefully this ship will be the one we have been looking for, and hold the man that we have also been looking for. I f it was not where on earth would Will and I try next?
