A/N: Oh wow.I got like 5-6 really good reviews yesterday.I am so happy.thank you.this chapter should be pretty good..I mean com'on any chapter that starts out with..well you'll just have to read it..te he! Disclaimer: I admit it, I don't own POTC! I wish I did. *sniff*

Will, Barbossa, and a couple other men from the crew walked down the stairs to the brig. "Well seems how it tis mornin' it seems right te let him out. I just wish'd I'd knew where Miss Rose went te, she would've loved to hev made fun of Jack." Will began to laugh, but stopped suddenly when Barbossa outstretched his arm and blocked Will's way.
Barbossa stepped quietly to the cage trying to keep from waking the two people in it. Jack and Salina still lay in the same place they did the night before. Barbossa put his hands on the door to the cell; he placed his face to it and started to laugh, but not overly. "Well Will, I think we found Miss Rose." Barbossa continued to laugh as another man brought down a bucket of water to wake them.
Barbossa turned swiftly. "No one else but us is to know about this, ye hear?" All the men nodded. "Good. Now I suppose whom ever has the keys will open the door?" Barbossa gave a few looks around to the men, until Will kindly pointed at the cell. Barbossa turned and looked. "Oh fer heaven's sake! Gi'me that there bucket." Barbossa stretched his greasy fingernails out on the bucket and swiftly chucked the water at the cage.
Salina jolted out of her sleep and screamed from the cold water hitting her body. She sat up for a minute as Jack rubbed his eyes and began to sit up. Salina pulled the wet hair out of her face, stood up and walked to the cage door. "Barbossa would ye be so kind as te get me another bucket of water?"
Barbossa looked confused and started stroking his beard. "Fer what, milady?" Salina turned away and then swerved back around.
"Well ye see." Salina got awfully close to the iron door, enough to poke her head through. "Ye see, Jack over here smells really bad, and me was wonderin' to me self why not douse him with some water. Do ye see?" She now leaned her arms up against the cage, boring her ice blue eyes into Barbossa's head.
"Aye miss, but I can't do that tis the captain." Salina turned her head and looked down at Jack. He had passed out again and his hat was by his feet. Jack looked almost innocent when he slept, but so did a lot of people. His dreadlocks (A/N or matted hair..who knows what it really is?) were all in his face and his pants were all scuffed up, they even had holes in them. Salina turned on her heel and faced Barbossa. "Well seems how he's still sleeping, that makes me the person in charge still. Doesn't it?"
Barbossa backed up and bowed his head. "Aye, milady." He turned and walked passed the other cells just to hear a woman's voice yell to him.
"Barbossa! I did not join this crew to be waited on and I expect none of ye men te do so! I am a pirate not a lady in court! Learn the difference or I shall have te teach ye!" Barbossa turned with a smile as Salina opened the cell door and took the bucket out of his hands. She made sure to shut the cell door behind her and take the keys with her.
'So is this what it's like being a captain? This is so fun, I must stop I sound like a little child. But yet there is something about being in charge that makes me feel important yet free at the same time.' Salina thought as she lowered the bucket down the side of the ship, then raised it to carry the water back to the cell.
Salina walked down the steps passed the crew and straight to the cell. She smiled quickly to the crew as she pictured how Jack would react to the rude awakening. Salina gave the keys to Will who opened the door; she stepped lightly in the room then moved the bucket directly over Jack. The water came flowing out of the bucket onto Jack's stomach. It splashed everywhere, even Salina got wet.
She fell back in hysterics as she saw Jack wake up. His face was bewildered, and then he came back to his senses as he realized where he was. When he turned he saw Salina laughing and rolling on the wooden floor. Her dress had become so wet he could almost see through it, which he didn't mind at all. Then he looked up to the crew, he became enraged as he remembered what happened and figured out what had just happened.
Salina stopped laughing just enough to look at Jack and she did not like what she saw. His eyes had become so dark they looked evil, and the charcoal under his eyes made him look fierce. "Twas only a joke Jack." She said while sliding over to him. Jack stood up and leaned on the side of the cell. Salina got up and walked over to him. "Jack! What is wrong with ye! Stop this nonsense it twas just a joke!"
"A joke!" He shouted at her.
"Yes Jack a Joke. This ship and crew was doin' fine till you had to wake up and start this!" She said, as she grew closer to Jack.
"Well I guess ye better go keep it that way! After all it tis only my ship not like any women is really capable of handling the responsibility of it! Ye may try but ye'll never succeed!" Salina became enraged with his comment.
"Yes Jack I am a women and I may not be the best captain in the world but at least I can keep the ship afloat and the crew happy. Which is more than I can say for ye!"
"Oh yeah ye keep the crew happy. By doin what? Taking them te bed!" Salina's jaw dropped as she began to hurt inside again. Without even thinking she slapped Jack hard across the face.
"Yer a coward! A coward if ye say that! You can't even admit that ye were bested by me me in battle! Ye hide in yer cabin always thinking and never really living yer life! These men work hard fer ye and ye don't even care! I cared, and I worked with them! I may be a woman but at least I can say I had the pleasure of working with the men that served me!" With that said Salina pranced out of the room, her dress flew as she walked.
"What! What are ye dogs lookin' at!" Jack yelled at his men, they dropped the keys in the cell and left Jack alone. When Will walked out from the brig the first thing he noticed was Salina. She reminded him of someone, but he couldn't put his finger on which it was. Her cream colored under gown waved at her side revealing her lovely figure, and Salina's long hair dangled, waving ever so slightly in the wind. The ocean spray landed on her face and embraced her skin. It was one of those moments when she could've cried but didn't, she just stood there still as a stone.
What was she thinking about? Was she thinking about Jack or James? Was she thinking about what went wrong or what went right? Was she dwelling in the past or stuck in the future? Who knows?

A/N: Well was that an interesting way to end a chapter? Not really a cliffhanger but good enough! I must tell you that this chapter actually makes me fell a little sad..although my spirit is rather happy because I get to see POTC again.YAY! Go me go me! *does little happy dance in the center of the room * Please, as always, r/r!
