On the 'Fire Soul':
"Some time for everyone to decide to go shopping!" Phoebus growled his grip slipping.
"Hold on!" he heard. Jack was running towards them, and took seconds to be there and grabbing Esmerelda's hand, helping to pull her up.
"What are you doing here?" Phoebus asked.
"Helping, now shut up and pull!" Jack said. Esmerelda was in the ship in no time.
Esmerelda fell on top of Jack after both Phoebus and Jack pulled her on to the ship. "Thank you, Jack." Esmerelda whispered, as she looked into Jacks eyes as he layed on top of each other.
"Hey!" Phoebus said. "I helped here! You'd have been in the water by the time Jack had gotten here if I hadn't held on to you!"
"SHUT UP!" Sara said, hitting Phoebus over the head with Jack's hat. "They're having a romantic moment!"
"I'm sorry about punching you before," Esmerelda whispered as she looked Jack over intently.
"Yeah, well, I'll forgive you for that if you'll forgive me for sleeping with your sister," Jack chuckled.
"Done!" Esmerelda laughed at Jack's facial expression.
"Squawk! Kiss and make up! Kiss and make up! Squawk!" Gar squawked.
"Hey, that's my fiancé!" Phoebus protested.
"Squawk! Leave them be! Leave them be! Squawk!" Gar went back to squawking, aiming his talons at Phoebus this time.
"For once, I respect that bird," Jack smirked. "Though I still think it's a bloody—"
"JACK!" Sara yelled.
"What?" Jack asked innocently.
"You know what, don't insult Gar!" Sara retorted.
"I'm sorry, look at me keeping you from your ship," Esmerelda giggled as she looked at her position from a top of Jack. "Just let me get up off you, then you can get back to work."
"Oh, um, right," Jack said, blushing.
"No, don't apologize!" Sara groaned. "Gods dammit, you DO need all the help you can get!"
"I've, er, got to go..." Jack said, backing off the ship. "Your welcome for rescuing you, and—"Jack never finished, he'd backed up a little too far and stumbled backwards into the water.
"Jack!" Sara cried, running to the side of the ship. She sighed when she saw Jack bobbing up and down in the water. "Can't you back up without falling into the ocean for ONCE?!" Sara yelled at him.
"JACK!" Esmerelda yelled also running to the side of the ship where Jack fell. Phoebus running after Esmerelda not wanting to let her out of his sight. "Are you ok? Do you need any help?"
"No, I'm okay!" Jack yelled back up. "Though, I could use some whiskey about now!"
"Oh, come on!" Sara yelled, going to the dock next to where he was and dragging him out of the water. "I've decided we're going shopping!"
"Shopping? For what?" Jack asked.
"STUFF!" Sara growled, dragging Jack off.
"Geeze, and I thought you were demanding..." Phoebus said.
"Don't start with me, you are still on my SHIT list! You think that you can just parade around like nothings changed! Well you wrong a lot has changed you should know that much by now!" Esmerelda argued as she turned to face Phoebus.
"I made a little comment, why are you suddenly mad at me for it?" Phoebus asked. "I never said things weren't different!"
"You sure do act like it things are still the same," Esmerelda replied as she threw her hands up into the air. "You still like to startle me when I'm deep in thought."
"I'm a very conventional guy, I like patterns," Phoebus shrugged. "If I'm used to startling people, I do it. It doesn't mean everything's the same, just some."
"What did you want to talk to me about before I was about to plummet of the ship?" Esmerelda asked.
"Well, I..." Phoebus hesitated. "I was wondering, if you still have any feelings for Sparrow. You know, if you still love him."
"Why? Is there a reason that I shouldn't still love him?" Esmerelda asked.
"Well, yeah, unless you forgot about me," Phoebus said. "I love you Esmerelda, you know that, otherwise I would have never asked you to marry me. But how am I supposed to trust this engagement and our future marriage if you still love someone else? How can I be sure that you love me back?"
"I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO TRUST THIS ENGAGEMENT, I NOT EVEN SURE ABOUT MY OWN FEELINGS RIGHT NOW ABOUT JACK. ITS BEEN FIVE YEARS SINCE I LOST SAW HIM AND HE ALL OF A SUDDEN SHOWS UP AND CONFESSES THAT HE HAS LOVED ME EVER SINCE WE PARTED ON BAD TERMS FIVE YEARS AGO. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL ABOUT THAT?" Esmerelda retorted.
"I don't know how you're supposed to feel about that, but how do you feel about me?" Phoebus asked, looking into her eyes. "Do you still love me, Esmerelda? Did you ever actually love me?"
"Yes I did actually love you at one time, but I'm not so sure right at this moment. I need time to sort through all that is happening with Jack showing up." Esmerelda whispered as she went to her cabin.
"What just happened?" Ethan asked as he came up on to the ship. "Did you and my sister just have a falling out about something?"
"What happened? What's wrong with Esmerelda? Did you hurt her in some way?" Elizabeth replied. "If you did then you will have to be answering to the 5 of us?"
"I didn't hurt her, you imbeciles!" Phoebus snapped. "We just got in an argument, as all couples do! You'd know if you ever got a girlfriend or boyfriend!" He then stormed down the ramp to calm himself in the city.
"Captain!" Quatre inquired, sticking his head in the door of the captain's cabin. "What are we to do now? The crew is awaiting orders!"
"We're heading off to Peridot, Quatre, tell them to pull anchor..." Treize muttered, looking out the porthole at the ship next to them.
"Who are they?" Quatre asked, looking over Treize's shoulder.
"Captain Jack Sparrow's ship, the 'Black Pearl'," Treize muttered.
"Jack Sparrow?" Quatre asked. "I've heard of him, I heard he is one of the greatest pirates to ever live."
"That's what bugs me," Treize growled. "His crew has beaten mine, and I'm looking for payback. Now's a good time, but I don't want to do anything in port, it's too...easy..."
There was a knock on the Captains door, Rei poked her head in and said, "Captain Do you know where I can find Zechs? I really need to talk to him about some things."
"I don't know, but you best get off the ship unless you want to take a little trip with us, we're leaving," Treize said.
"I'll tell the crew," Quatre said. "Zechs is in his cabin, I think he's a bit depressed though, so be careful." He then bowed to both of them and ran off.
"Captain, can you just tell him that I was looking for him?" Rei asked as she opened the door to leave. "I would really appreciate it if you do."
"I'd tell him, but he won't let anyone in his room," Treize said. "He's completely locked himself in there, the only person that he let in there was Rudolf, but when the kid came out he had a bruise on his cheek and was crying something about Zechs hitting him."
"Here can you give him this," Rei asked handing him an envelope. "I hope it will have him understand and explain some things. Maybe it will have him go back to his old self again."
"I will. And I hope it will, Zechs would have never struck a child before," Treize shook his head.
"We're ready to go, sir," Wufei said, appearing at the door.
"Good. Now, good day to you, Captain Sanada," Treize said.
Wufei bowed gently as Rei left and closed the door behind him.
"Good day Captain Treize, I hope this helps." Rei replied as she curtsies, adjusts her shall and leaves. Hoping that she still had a chance with Zech's and their love that she had lost.
