I HOLD NO CLAIMS TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING BUT THE TWO SETS OF THE RUSH TWINS!

Epilogue

Until Next Time

"There is just one thing that I don't like about Tortuga," Rena scowled from the door of the bar. Lance was sitting at a table with two women, Gizelle and Scarlet if she remembered correctly, laughing and drinking. "It's all the whores here; men and women alike." She shuddered as she left and began to move down the street.

"Oh, come now love," Jack moved after her, wrapping an arm around her waist. "It's not all bad!"

"So say you."

"What? Do you not trust what I say?"

"Not one bit."

Jack laughed. "You're horrible," He told her as they reached the dock.

"I try. In fact, I say we leave Lance here. He's just a-" She froze, glancing around. "Hey, where are Norrington and Nissa?"

"Well, that's just it. The two of them have decided to stay here." Jack told her.

"Here?"

"Not for the rest of their lives, of course. Norrington, God only knows how, has tallked Nissa into going back to England with him to try and see if he can get his title backk after all that Beckett did."

"And she's doing that willingly?"

"Apparently so."

"Wow. Talk about-"

"Stupidity?" Jack offered up with a smile.

"No, you jerk! Love! Love love love love!" The man smiled down at her as they paused at the end of the dock. He was caught by her beutiful for a moment before - "Jack…where's the ship?" She asked.

The man beside her was silent, trying to spot the Black Pearl as well, but with no luck. Rena had to keep her cool and keep her act on. She knew that her brother could, but it was going to be hard for her in tricking Jack into not letting him know that she knew Barbossa was going to take off with the other two members on her family AND the ship.

Jack's arm fell from Rena's waist as he scratched his head. "Where-"

"Where the hell's the ship?"

Jack and Rena turned around to see Lance, Giselle and Scarlet on his arms still, paused behind him.

"Is that it?" The blonde asked, looking down at the boat before them.

"The Black Pearl?" Scarlet sounded disappointed.

"It's not very big."

"That is a dinghy," Rena replied.

"The vessel that I was telling you about, my vessel," Lance looked around. "Is lovely, awesome, and huge!"

Rena leaned over the Jack. "So, is he the Captain now?" She asked. Jack shrugged, watching in enjoyment.

"And it is…gone. Why in the hell is it gone!" Lance removed his arms and moved to the front of the dock. "No! I was gonna get laid, too! No!"

Rena rolled her eyes at her brother. She then sighed, spotting something in the horizon. "Oh dear," She placed a hand on Jack and Lance's arms. "It seemed that Barbossa has run off with the Pearl…again."

Jack turned his face to watch the ship sail off, a frown in place of his amused grin.

"Oh, Lance, you promised to take us for a ride!" Scarlet groaned.

Giselle didn't look too happy. "I was to be given the first ride."

"What? You?"

Rena knew what was coming. "Jack…" And this was why she didn't tell Jack that Barbossa planned on taking the Pearl. Such troubles. "Now, just calm down, dear."

Lance glanced to the left to see a sleeping Gibbs on the dock, holding a teddy bear to him. Rena found it adorable. The Elder Rush brother moved over to Gibbs and began to nudge him with his foot.

"Mr. Gibbs," Lance and Jack both wore a very unhappy look. "Any particular reason why my ship is gone?" They both asked.

"The ship?" The man replied, still half asleep. "We're on the ship." He settled back down to sleep some more but realization dawned on him and he jumped up. "Jack! The ship's gone!"

Jack gave him a sarcastic look. "Really?" Their attention was grabbed by the two women that were now hitting each other and Lance stomped over in anger.

"Will the two of you just shut up?" Jack, Rena, and Gibbs shared a look as the two other women looked at Lance in surprise. "Listen. "Of course I lied." He told the blonde. "No, I don't love you, I just wanted to get laid." He told the red-head. "Of course it makes you look fat; and it's a horrid color on you. "I've never been to Brussels. It is pronounced 'egregious '. No, I've never actually met Pizarro and I find his pies to be disgusting."

"I love them!" Jack decided he should whisper to Rena. She giggled.

"And you know what, I really don't care anymore because the Pearl is gone and I am stuck here with my sister and her lover in a small little boat and will have to listen to their lovesick giggles until we receive a bigger one or until I can't stand it anymore and I have to kill the bloody idiot! Got it?" His voice was loud.

Rena held a surprised look on her face. She had never seen Lance THAT much annoyed. Not even with Jack.

The two women shared a look before both slapped him. Rena slapped a hand over her mouth in a giggle as her brother then turned and slapped Jack, who then in turn turned and slapped Gibbs. Gibbs looked pissed for a moment but Jack gave him a smile and Gibbs shrugged with a grin of his own.

"Take what you can." Gibbs told Jack.

"Give nothing back." Jack replied. They bumped knuckles and Gibbs hurried after the two women that were now walking away, talking about Sea Turtles. Rena knew that this wasn't going to be the last time that she saw him.

"So, Jackie," Rena hooked her arm through his as Lance stood on her other side. "What now?" She asked.

"I…I don't know." Jack answered her.

"Then it's a good thing that I got this then, isn't it?" Rena and Jack looked at Lance as he pulled out a small scroll. Both recognized it. It was the charts! "I had a feeling that ole' Barbossa would pull something like this on us, so I grabbed it this morning. Swift, ain't I?"

Jack looked like he could kiss Lance, but they all knew that if he so much as even dared to try, he was going to die. "Well, come on then," Jack stepped into the boat and held a hand out for Rena. "Let's get too sailing!"

"All men up the ratlines!" Barbossa ordered before picking up a peanut and handing it to Jack2(the monkey) as he sat on Jena's shoulder. "Oh, that's a good boy! You're Daddy's boy. Oh yes you are. Oh yes you are." He coed.

Leon, sitting on the railing behind his sister, raised an eyebrow before giving a smirk. ~As long as he doesn't talk to my sister like that, we're good. She's his wife, not a pet~

"Sir?" Ragetti, Pintel, Marvin, and two other men walked up to the three of them. Barbossa glanced at them. "Some of the men don't feel entirely settled about leaving Captain Jack behind."

"Again." Ragetti whispered to his friend.

"Again."

"And with Rena again," The other man added. "And Lance as well."

"What he said."

Barbossa tried to hide his smirk. "Is that so?"

"I would make us feel a whole lot better regarding our fortunes if we could see that item you told us about."

"On the charts."

"Aye. With our own eyes."

"To help put an ease to your burden of guilt, so to speak."

"Ah," Barbossa turned and Jena backed up so he could grab the charts. Leon and his sister shared a look. Things were about to get hairy. "Feast your eyes upon this, mateys. There's more than one way to live forever. Gents, I give you the Fountain of Youth." He opened the charts to let them take hold of its glory until he noticed the looks on their faces. He glanced down as Jena couldn't help but let out a soft giggle before slapping a hand over her mouth.

The charts were gone! Cut out. No longer there.

Barbossa lifted up what was left of the chart and scowled. "Sparrow." Another giggle from Jena got free and Barbossa froze, turning to look at her. Leon and his sister both refused to look at him and he easily put two and two together. Setting the item down, he moved towards them. "Not Sparrow," He growled. "You two."

"Well," Leon and Jena held twin smirks as her hand lowered. "You weren't expecting us to leave Lance and Rena with nothing after you took the ship, were you?"

"But-"

"Hector," Jena took a step forward. "You have the Pearl. Can't you live with just that?" She asked him. "For at least a little while?"

Barbossa continued to just stare at her for a moment, not sure of what he should really say. He understood why she did it, he was making her leave her twin and Leon's twin behind because if the two of the came then Jack was definitely coming,

"You could have told me instead of making me look like an idiot in front of the crew." He told her.

"If I had told you what Leon and I were planning on doing then you would have guarded the charts with your life until I had to rip them from your fingers." Jena replied as Jack2 hopped from her shoulders. "I'm sorry, but I just couldn't leave them behind without something. After all," She took a step around him. "Are you not Hector Barbossa? Can you not find treasure without a map leading you there?"

Barbossa smirked and slid a hand across her waist. "Just tell me next time before you do something, Aye?"

"All right. Hector…"

"Yes, dear?"

"I'm going to kiss you." She told him.

The Pirate Captain looked down at her with a large smile. Leon turned away politely as his sister and her husband exchanged greetings of joy.

~God, I hope that Lance doesn't get to see Jack and Rena doing this. He'd explode!~

Jack was silently singing the Pirate's Life song as he raised the small pirate flag with a red Sparrow on it. Jack then took seat towards the back of the boat, Rena sat in the middle, and Lance at the front. Rena wore a smile while Lance looked as annoyed as ever. Pulling the charts back out, he began to move the wheels again until it lined up off of a coast(what was soon to be known as St. Augustine in Florida(one of the BEST places ever to go Ghost Hunting if I do say so myself! :) ))

Aqua De Vida

It read.

The Fountain of Youth.

"We're devils and black sheep

And Really Bad eggs"

Jack paused for a moment and pulled out his special compass. He stared at the arrow for a moment before reaching behind him and grabbing a bottle of rum, pulling the cork out with his teeth. Rena watched the look on his face. He still looked confused. It seemed that the Compass was pointing somewhere else still, and not towards where Jack wanted. It took a few moments before Jack looked up at her and smiled. He set the compass down for a moment before leaning forward, grasping the back of her head, and pulled Rena into a kiss. As the woman responded, Jack tried his hardest, and failed horribly, in trying to ignore the daggers that Lance's eyes were trying to stab him with.

Jack pulled back again with a satisfied grin and picked his compass back up. It took a moment before a large smiled broke out onto his face before he took a drink of the rum.

"Drink up, me hearties, Yo Ho."
