Eh. I gave in. Here's the fourth chapters, and I better get some gosh darn reviews soon! Or I shall be very upset! *laughs* Eh, I'm just going to keep posting until someone else takes notice of this.

Governor Swann looked like he'd been hit in the head by a plank of wood. He placed his hands on the rail of the Dauntless and glared at Will.

"You! After all I've done for you! I thought your days of piracy were over!" His face was tinged pink, and he now looked furious. Cotton's parrot swooped silently downwards and grabbed his wig, which the Governor grabbed at aimlessly. The parrot soared back to the crow's nest where he alighted on Cotton's shoulder. This only served to make the Governor even angrier. He shook, visabely torn between ordering his men to fire and keeping Elizabeth safe. He finally just stalked off to his quarters.

I smirked, swinging back and forth slightly on the rope. "Well, I do believe we got what was comin' to us," I glanced in Will and Elizabeth's direction. "So, ye scalliwags, we'll be gettin' on our way now." Anamaria, while we'd been talking, had taken the opportunity to quietly swing over to the Dauntless and cut the ropes which held their sails up. She swung back over and landed on the very back of the stern of the Pearl. She had done the whole thing very quickly; I'd have to remember to thank her later.

We were already out of cannon reach of the Dauntless when they tried to come after us. On this nearly windless day, it was entirely impossible for them. Even from the distance we were ate, I could see the Commodore's face turn a darker shade of red every minute. I just chuckled and turned the ship in the direction of Tortuga.

Late that night, the Pearl safely anchored, Will, Elizabeth and I sat in my quarters. "So," I said, tossing Elizabeth an apple, which she bit into gratefully, "how'd ye get on the Dauntless?" Will, who had been pacing the small room, stopped to answer me.

"It was pretty simple, really," he said, a smile on his face. "We were talking to Governor Swann shortly before they were set to leave and he told us to get off the ship or they'd have to set sail with us on board. So, we hid in his quarters until we heard the Commodore shout your name." He grinned like a little boy on Christmas morning and took an apple from the bowl on the table.

I nodded. "And how exactly did they not find ye?" Will just shrugged and took a bite of his apple. I peered at Elizabeth, who was staring quietly at her apple. "And why be you so quiet, missy?" I inquired. She tore her eyes away from the apple and landed them on my face. She opened her mouth to speak, and that's when we heard the commotion on the deck outside.
