Jack awoke in the large soft bed. The sunlight poured in the room, and a wind briefly cleared the humid feeling from the room. But a few moments after, it was back. Jack let out sigh that was crossed by a yawn. He turned his head to his side to find that he was not sleeping in the bed alone. She had the blankets kicked off of her, and her head was softly resting against the pillow.

He resisted the urge to let out a surprised yell. The girl stirred and Jack realized who it was; Camille. With a small scold he stood up, for the past week he had awoken to find this girl in the same room as him. Either she was sleeping next to the door, on a chair, next to the bed...now she was sleeping on the bed though. Jack crept to the door and opened it with a small creak. He froze and looked back at Camille, not so early in the day did he want her following him around. She stirred, but was still asleep.

With a quick step out of the door he walked down the hall. Maud was carrying a tray, "Oh...Mr. Sparrow,er, Captain,I mean... Jack...I was just bringing you your breakfast. Eggs, toast, a piece of ham and some milk and juice." She said with a smile. He looked at her face then down to the tray of food then back tp her, perhaps he was wrong about Maud.

"Not very hungry at the moment...Don't bother with Camille, she's still sleeping..."

Maud watched him, "Alright then,sir."

Jack brushed past her, "I'll be going on a walk, tell whoever wants to know that I'll be back in an hour or two."

She looked at him curiously, "Okay then. I'll just give Camille her breakfast when she gets up...A bath too I think, she seems to really love them... and you."

He paused for a moment then quickly walked down the staircase, "Have a nice day." He called over his shoulder to her.

"And you,sir." She said back to him.

Jack stepped out of the home into the light. The sun blazed down on his head and the air felt thick. He started to walk, the dirt lifting each time one of his boots did. Walking out of the gate, he saw that hardly anyone was in the sun. There were only a few kids out today, and they were in the shade of trees.

He didn't stop walking until he was at the shore, a lonely part. Sweat was beading off of his head, and he wiped it off with his sleeve.He kicked off his boots and let his hat,coat,and sword drop to the ground. When the water reached his waist, he stopped walking and dived under. The cool water hit his face, it was utterly refreshing. No one would be able to deny it.

After taking a short swim,then drying in the sun, Jack made his way back to the mansion of a home. He softly held the shell in his pocket. He found it in the sand, it was a pale blue color with a few speckles of brown on it, it was something Camille would like. Jack opened the door of the home and saw that it was...quite empty. When he left, Will and Elizabeth had been there...Where could they have went?

He stood there for a moment, wondering this. A pounding noise could be heard against the door of a closet in the next room. Jack slowly walked into the room, and carefully put his hand on the sheath of his sword. With the other he slowly reached onto the handle. He took a deep breath, readying himself. He swung opened the door and looked down the the ground. There sat Elizabeth and Will,together. Well, tied together. For a moment he gazed at them questioningly.

Jack pulled them out and pulled the piece of cloth from Elizabeth's mouth. "Jack!" She shouted, "Maud!Camille!"

He looked around and pulled the cloth from Will's mouth, "I don't see them anyplace, Elizabeth...Want me to go and find them?"

"No!" yelled Will, "Maud took Camille!"

Jack stared at him for a moment, his breath stuck in his chest, maybe he had heard wrong, "What do you mean 'took'?"

Elizabeth was trying to stand up,Jack hadn't yet untied them. "Kidnapped her,Jack!"

He stared at them, "Your ...I...WHAT?"

Will stared up at him, "JACK!..SHE'S A PIRATE!"
