Carmina Lily Rodriguez strolled along the busy streets of Port Royal, keeping an eye out for a grand looking building. She squared her shoulders and pulled the hat she had 'borrowed' from some drunken swot in Tortuga, down a little more, hoping she looked more man-like than she felt, at least her wet clothes were starting to dry under the hot sun. The brisk clip clop of hooves caught her attention, looking up, she gaped at the luxurious carriage that was driving down a paved path. Trying to appear as if racing after a carriage was the commonest thing in the world she dashed madly after it until it stopped at the gates of an immense mansion. Climbing up a tree she goggled at the magnificence of it all. 'If only ma could see me now' she grinned at the thought. A handsome young man stepped out of the carriage and she felt a giggly feeling in a stomach. "No! There is no way you are going to develop a crush on someone u don't even know!" she told herself sternly. Waiting until the carriage was out of sight she scampered from tree to tree, monkey-like, until she saw a branch reaching for an open window. She froze and listened for danger as her father had taught her to before running lightly along and diving headfirst toward the window.

Elizabeth Swann, soon to be Elizabeth Turner, was getting ready for Will, he was due any minute now to spend the afternoon with her. She stood in front of her wardrobe, trying to choose from her vast amount of dresses. All of a sudden there was thud and she whirled around in time to see a man tumble in through the window. A shriek escaped her and Will charged into the room with his sword unsheathed.
"What is it Elizabeth?" then he spotted a tall slender being trying to sneak out of the room via the window. It only took 2 strides for Will to reach the other side of the room his sword at the person's neck. "State your business."
An obstinate silence followed and Will pressed his sword a lightly against the person's neck, but not hard enough to break the skin. "What if I don't have any business?" he could here a trace of laughter in the person's voice, he paused, it sounded peculiarly like a girl's. He stepped back and yanked the hat off the person's head. The person's head snapped up and dark eyes, shot with green, glared at him. Will's eyes widened in surprise, "You're a girl!"
"What about it?" but her defiant stare faltered a little under Will's keen, searching one. Her black-brown hair was held up in a sort of bun by two long pins, but parts of it had fallen out and two locks now framed her face. Well-shaped eyebrows arched over her uncommonly coloured eyes, a straight nose that was a little snubbed, soft mouth and a stubborn chin completed her face.
Elizabeth came up and stood beside Will, "We're not going to hurt you."
The girl snorted indignantly, "Oh, I'm not worried about that."
Will raised his eyebrows in amusement, "Well then, why did you come tumbling into Elizabeth's room?"
"I need to find Mr William Turner and Miss Elizabeth Swann."
"Well you've found them."
The girl grinned, "Golly, if I'd known it was going to be that easy. Well. I sincerely apologise for my previous rudeness. I'm Carmina Lily Rodriguez, pleased to make your acquaintance." She made an elaborate bow to the couple, but when she straightened up, although she was still smiling, there was a troubled look in her eyes. "I need your help. I suppose you know a certain Captain Jack Sparrow?"
