**Janes Point of View**
Jane stomped to Jack's cabin. How dare that man ask her that question? It was absolutely none of his bloody business. He had no right. Jane sighed as she shook her head. She wasn't exactly sure why she was so mad at him, probably because he was an ungrateful jerk. She had saved his life, and every one on this creaking tub, and he didn't utter one thank you. Jerk.
Jane was brought out of her thoughts as she came to Jacks cabin. The door was fixed, she guessed he got some of his men to do it. Jane slowly opened the door to see if AnaMaria was still in there, she wasn't. With another sigh Jane walked in and slammed the door shut. She had just come to the realization that she was very very tired. Hey, saving a bunch of lives aint as easy as it sounds. Jane looked at the bed, then looked at the cabin door. She wanted to sleep so badly....but she wasn't sure if she wanted to sleep in that bed.
"But is looks so comfortable" She thought....and without another thought about it, she walked over and got on the bed, the minute her head hit the pillow she was out like a light.

**Jacks Point Of View**
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jack hummed softly as he turned the helm a little to the right. He had been up there most of the day, and was trying to decide if he wanted to do a night shift. But he had caught himself drifting off earlier, so a night shift was out of the question. He looked over at Gibbs, nodded and walked away, leaving Gibbs to do the night shift.
As Jack began to walk towards his cabin his thoughts drifted to Jane. She was a piece of work that's for sure. She had a bad temper to. But she was also very quiet. He didn't understand why she got so mad at him when he had asked her who hit her. Jack shrugged, he guessed she was either in a fight, or maybe her boyfriend, if she had one, had hit her. But in general Jane just confused him. He knew she was a stowaway, how else could she had got on this ship.
Jack shook his head as he entered the cabin, but stopped short when he saw Jane sleeping peacefully on his bed. She was actually quite pretty when she wasn't wielding a sword. He long hair was spread everywhere, and she was curled up into a ball. Jack thought about kicking her off of the bed, but even he couldn't do it. Well actually he could, but even if he wouldn't admit it, he knew very well that he **did** owe this girl his life. So he just left her be as he made his way to the other side of the bed. He was tired and needed sleep. With another quick glance at Jane he slipped under the covers and he too went fast asleep.

**Janes Point Of View**
Jane opened her eyes slowly, trying to figure out why she was in a wooden room. Then it hit her...she was in another world on some physco pirates ship. Jane sighed softly as she turned around to be met with Jacks sleeping form. With a yelp she jumped off of bed, but she somehow got tangled in the bed- sheets and instead of landing gracefully on her feet, she fell to the floor with a thud. Jane cursed that bed-sheets and her clumsiness. And for some reason she cursed Jack too. But before she could too much on that Jack turned and looked at her on the floor.
"What's the meaning of this?" He grumbled. "Can't a Captain get any sleep around here?"
Jane snorted as she quickly untangled her self. She stood up and threw the blankets on top of Jack, who in turn grabbed his pillow and threw it at her, telling her to get out. Jane just grabbed the pillow that Jack had threw and threw it back before walking out of the cabin and shutting the door. She heard a something soft hit the closed door and assumed it was the pillow. Jane shook her head. She was right, he was physco.
Jane paused at the stair that led to the main deck, then she waked up them. When she got on the main decks he looked around. It was a beautiful day. But she could see a bunch of stom clouds in the distance.....she didn't think that was a really good sign, but decided to just forget about it.
"I see you are up early." Someone said behind her. Jane turned and smiled when she caught sight of AnaMaria.
"Good morning. How's you head?" Jane asked.
AnaMaria shrugged. "Tis fine. I've had worse before."
Jane nodded and turned towards the sea. "So...do you know where we are going?"
AnaMaria folded her arms as she came and stood next to Jane. "Why are ye asking me? Why aren't you asking Jack?"
"I did." Jane sighed. "He wouldn't tell me."
AnaMaria chuckled as she looked over her shoulder in the direction of Jack's cabin. "That sounds like Jack alright."
"So will you tell me?"
"Sorry lass. But I can't. Jack be the Cap'n and I can't tell you unless he does." AnaMaria said as she shook her head.
Jane nodded silently as she just stared out at the sea. She somehow knew AnaMaria was going to say that.
AnaMaria threw another glance over her shoulder before she lent closer to Jane and spoke softly. "But I do know what you could do lass."
"What?"
"Make a bet with him." AnaMaria replied.
Jane frowned as she turned to face AnaMaria. "What do you mean?"
AnaMaria smiled. "Just think of something to bet on. Jack cant resist a bet. And if you win, he tells you where we are going." AnaMaria's smile slid for a moment. "Just make sure you don't bet on anything to do with rum."
"Why not?"
"Because you will lose, trust me on that" AnnaMarai said.
Jane nodded. "Ok. I'll do that. ...Now I just need to think of something to bet on." Jane glanced at AnaMaria. "Do you have any ideas?"
"Sorry lass. I did my part of thinking." AnaMaria shrugged. "But make sure you choose something you are very good at. Good luck." AnaMarai said as she walked off to finish her chores for the morning, leaving Jane to think about the bet.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jane sighed as she tried to get comfortable on her wooden stool. It has been two hours since AnaMaria had given Jane the idea about the bet. Jane had been sitting on this wooden stool for two bloody hours trying to figure out what she could bet on. She wasn't really that great at anything but fighting. And she wasn't exactly sure she wanted to fight someone for an answer. But after another hour of sitting and thinking, she finally gave up and decided that if she was going to bet on something, and win, it would have to be fighting. So without another thought, Jane stood up to go and find Jack.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A few moments later Jane found him....where else but at the helm, AnaMaria was next to him arguing with him about something. Jane took a deep breath and walked up to Jack and tapped him on the shoulder.
Jack turned to look at her. "What?"
"Will you tell me where we are going?" Jack shook his head. "I already told you, luv, you tell me who had hit you, and I'll tell you where we are going."
"Forget it! That is none of you business." Jane snapped.
"Then where we are going, I aint telling you." Jack said as he turned his back to her.
Jane clenched her fists. She was so tempted to just punch him right then, but with a quick glance at AnnaMaria she decided she better not. Jane took another breath. Well it was now or never.
"Jack....."
"CAPTAIN!"
Jane frowned, then continued. "How 'bout we make a bet?"
Jack turned to look at her. He could never resist a bet. But he decided to play it safe. "What kind of bet?"
Jane swallowed. "I bet I can win a fight with anyone on this ship."
Jack raised his eyebrows. Who was she kidding? This girl was a shrimp compared to his men. She would easily loose. "Let's say I agree, and you win, what do you get?"
"Our destination."
Jack nodded. "And if I win?"
Jane bit her lip. She hadn't thought of that. Mostly because she planned on winning. "I...I don't know."
Jack raised his eyebrows again. He already knew what he wanted if he won. "If you lose, you tell me who hit ye."
Jane frowned a bit and she glanced over at AnaMaria who was shaking her head. But Jane really didn't have much of a choice. She nodded. "Fine, but on one condition."
"And what's that?"
"Who ever I fight, we fight hand to hand combat, no swords." Jane said. She was a lot better at hand to hand combat. The swords were just too heavy for her.
Jack nodded. This mad it even better. Nearly everyone on his ship was at least twice as big and strong as she was. He was positive she'd lose now. He held out his hand. "Aye, do we 'ave an accord?"
Jane shook his hand. "Yes, we do."
Jack nodded as he turned and began to go and look for someone to fight Jane. When Jack was out of earshot, AnaMaria walked up to Jane with a grim face. "Ye know, when I said that you should bet on something, I didn't mean for you to bet o something you'll lose at!"
Jane shook her head. "No, I wont. Fighting is what I'm good at." Jane glanced at the deck. "Yeah, thanks to my father" She thought.
"It wouldn't matter if you were the queen of fighting, everyone on this ship is at **least** two times bigger than you are...."
"Exactly" Jane interrupted. "Everyone is two times bigger than me, therefore, everyone is two times slower than me. I am smaller than everyone, so I am faster on my feet."
AnaMaria sighed. Jane smiled reassuringly. "I'll win, trust me."
"I..."
"OI! Lass! We're ready fer ye over here!!" Jack yelled from the center of the deck where a bunch of the crew had formed a circle. Jane took a breath and began to walk towards Jack, praying that she wasn't making a big mistake by doing this.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Authors Note: Well there we are, the 6th chapter. I hope you guys liked it. I hadn't actually planned on Jane fighting someone just yet. But I thought it would be neat to see her fight someone else besides Jack. So we'll see how that goes. I'll hopefully have the next chapter up in a week, so I'll see you all then!!
Anyways, R&R please!!
