A/N: FIGHT SCENES ARE AWSOME! Are they not? Well you can tell me what you thought of last chapter and this chapter by reviewing me (hint hint)! Well the next chapter has arrived so you can read it now. Well go on! Read!
Pip: *looks frantically to Nev for an answer on what to do*
Nev: Jack, why don't ye sit down, take a load off, have some rum? *hands him a pint*
Jack: Why thank ye, I think. *looks at her questionably* So what have ye lasses been up to these past few weeks?
Pip: *takes drink of rum*
Nev: Oh not much, I got myself a place on my dear friend Anne's ship and Pip here's got a spot on it too. Just got an opening so she was asked to join the crew *thinks: yeah what a crew we have 2 people*
Jack: Sounds like you've been busy.
Nev: ye know me Jack, I like to keep myself at work as long as it aint scrubbing the poop deck! (he he. pip knows what I mean) *stands to get another pint but stops in tracks and sits back down biting her lip and looking at the table*
Jack: *looks at the frightened girl awkwardly* What's wrong, love?
Nev: *turns and gives a fake smile* Nothing, nothing at all.
A voice from behind: Hello Pip, Jack, *pauses for a moment and Nev bites her lip even harder* Nev?
Nev: *turns head and looks the man over sighing right before she acknowledges him* Good day Will, long time no see, eh?
Will: Yeah. *Elizabeth runs into the pub with Anne by her side*
Nev: *stands up inches from Will's face* What on blazes are you two doing running in to a pub like that! You could give a person the wrong impression, like that we're being attacked!
Anne: *holds a finger up as she takes a breath* We. *breath* Are *breath*
Elizabeth: *walks up to Will and Nev* And what is this? *eyes them both then they scramble apart one at one end of the table the other at the other end of the table*
Nev: *standing behind Jack* Nothing.

Salina stood with her eyes closed fully aware of everyone watching her; she gripped her sword tighter and walked over to Jack. Her stern face cutting straight to his, her eyes flew open revealing so much anger and hatred towards him.
"Now see here, love-."
Salina thrust her sword into the planks of the ship just missing Jack's boot. "No Jack you see here! I am sick of these pathetic games that you play with women! It kills me that you use them completely! I didn't want to hurt Anna and I'm almost positive this could've been avoided if you hadn't started metaling around and teasing both of us like we were dogs!"
"Me? You think this is my fault?"
"I don't have to think, Jack, I know! You are the most irresponsible, inconsiderate, low down fool that I have ever met and you don't know love from a ship, god knows if it weren't for your crew you'd be dead by now!" Her face grew closer to his and her light blonde locks fell in her face.
You didn't have to look to see the anger flowing from Salina it filled the air, her face grew scarlet and she could barley hold herself back from hitting Jack. "Salina." Jack reached out and put his hand to her face.
"Don't you touch me!" She smacked his arm down then hauled off and punched him in the face, sending him to the ground. "You can't manipulate me Jack! I won't have it! And if you keep this up there'll be a new captain on this ship, savvy?" She spat on him as she flew away from the scene grabbing her sword from the broken planks as she stormed off.
Gibbs grabbed Jack by his arm pits and pulled him back up, his hat lay on the floor of the deck and everyone was starring at him. "Well go on! Get back to work you scaberish dogs!" Everyone moved about trying to get to his or her rightful place of work.
Salina flew by Elizabeth who stood at the top of the stairwell with Will. "Salina are you-."
"Please Will just go away!" She hollered back as she thumped down each step keeping her face hidden as she continued downward.
Elizabeth looked to her husband with sympathy, "I'll go see if she is okay you just help Jack with that bruise he's got on his face, might turn black shortly." Elizabeth kissed Will's cheek and walked lightly down the steps watching for Salina as she came to the hallway at the bottom.
Anna-Maria stepped out of her room and noticed Elizabeth starring at her. "What's all the commotion on deck for?" She asked with little enthusiasm.
Elizabeth smiled slightly, "Salina gave Jack a black eye and stormed off down here, said she hated the way he manipulated woman."
Anna shoved passed Elizabeth, "Maybe if she wasn't so easy to manipulate it wouldn't of happened."
Elizabeth turned and her anger showed, "Maybe if Jack hadn't betrayed her several times over and led her to believe he still cared it wouldn't of happened, but are you forgetting that you were equally manipulated in all of this?"
Anna-Maria scuffed and mumbled something under her breath as she left the hallway and went back onto the deck. Elizabeth turned and continued down the hallway until she came to Salina's room. "Salina?" She knocked faintly on the door to get Salina's attention.
Salina stood leaning against the door, she examined her hands over and over each time finding the same result. Her right knuckles were bleeding from the the impact to Jack's cheek bone, and both hands were shaking horribly.
"Yes I'm here, just a minute." She turned from the door and looked out the tiny window at the raging sea. "Come in!"

Gibbs sat in Jack's cabin looking over his bruise. "Well captain your going to be black and blue for a few days now I guarantee that."
"It hurts like hell, I don't think I've ever been hit that hard by a woman before."
"Well there's always a first time for everything Captain. Hold still, it looks like your skin cracked, your bleeding a little."
"Just wonderful, I swear when I get a hold of that woman I'm going to- ." Jack clenched his fist.
"You'll do nothing sir." Gibbs smiled as he further examined his face.
Jack loosened his fists and relaxed, "You're right I won't, I could never harm her ever."
"Physically at least, you've already done enough mental damage to the poor lass. I'm surprised she hasn't gone mad yet."
"You don't call what she just did mad?"
"Not even close, that's just bent up frustration when it comes to Salina. She has a lot of it you know. That woman's got anger like you've never seen."
"Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it's true. Say Gibbs?"
"Yes sir?"
"How come you know all of this about Salina?"
"Well while you were off sailing and finding your own life during those 13-14 years that you hadn't seen Salina, I saw her quite a few times. She'd come into Tortuga to visit me and whatnot."
"Oh, I see."
"But don't get jealous Jack, no matter how much I cared for her she cared for you double of that. Looks like you're going to need stitches."
"What are you talking about?"
"Your face some of the skins cracked and it needs to be sewn back up. It's probably just from the air being dry though and then when Salina punched you it just gave in and cracked."
"No not that. What you said about Salina."
"Oh, yeah she would always ask me if I had seen or heard from you, she seemed quite worried about you, she even thought you dead twice, those stupid stories that go around you know the ones."
"Aye, so she asked about me?"
"Yes sir, but don't get all happy about it because I think she's pretty disappointed in you now, I mean she waited for you all those years and now you've moved on."
"What? She waited? For me? Why on earth would she do that, she could've had any man out there?" The door to the cabin creaked open and a woman stepped in.
"Because she once loved you so much that she couldn't give up trying to find you, hoping that you could forgive her for the stupid things that she had done." The woman stepped out of the shadows and her hair fell freely to her sides.
"Jack I haven't come to apologize for what I've done and I never will because you fully deserved it. But I am willing to make a truce, that is if you are?"
Gibbs backed away from Jack as soon as he was finished stitching up his face. "What brought this on?"
"Let's just say I had a talk with a rather soft spirit who enabled me to realized that I could never fully beat Barbossa without your help."
"Elizabeth, eh?"
"Aye, she gets to the best of us I'm afraid." Changing her tone she began to speak again, "I expect from here on out to be told everything that is going on, the exact coordinates of where we're going, to be informed about any sudden changes and most of all to have someone explain to me fully why Barbossa is after me and Cat. I expect to be notified of any new information about Barbossa and have partial if not most commanding power over the ship, understood?" She walked to Jack and extending her right hand revealing her bloody knuckles.
"Well I'll allow you to have partial commanding not most, but agreed." They shook hands; Jack took notice of her bloody knuckles and turned her hand to where he could see them better. "But first you need to take care of that."
She yanked her hand from his and smiled, "I'll do that myself. Now I suppose we are on equal terms?"
"Aye."

Anne: *walks over to table* What's going on here? *Looks around and notices Will and Jack* Oh my god! It's really them! It's the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow and William Turner! *she jumped up and down smiling*
Nev: *looks at her amusingly* Aye it's them alright.
Anne: Wait a minute, you know them? *stops jumping*
Nev: well sort of, yes!
Anne: Well how you never told me!
Nev: We'll have to talk about it later, perhaps you should read A Change In The Winds, it's me and Pip's story (hint hint!) but I have no time to explain at this moment, what is this you say about an attack?
A/N: Well tell me what you thought of this chapter, I know it doesn't have that much excitement I'm sorry. But please read and review and if you can please do check out Mine and LOTRwolf's(pip) story A Change In The Winds it's pretty good and you'd understand my a/n's a little better. well until next time, TA!
