Chapter 4

The Sliver Dolphin

Will awoke with a horrible headache. He looked around and remembered last night. He remembered what he said 'OH MY GOD!!! GET OVER YOURSELF!!! Its not like I wanted to touch you!!. I mean look at you!! When was the last time you bathed?' He thought of how mean he had been to her. He knew he would have to apologize. He also remembered what she did. He sat up and saw he was on the couch and she was in the bed. 'I guess she did get her way.' She was still asleep, so Will went on deck. It was almost dawn. Gibbs was approaching him.

"Morning Cap'n! We have six new crew members. Not counting that little miss that brought you aboard last night."

"She did? I don't remember anything."

"She brought you aboard with you on her shoulder. She carried you like you were a sack of feathers. Will she be staying with us?"

"Yes Gibbs, she is a friend of Jacks. No not a whore friend a real one." he spoke reading Gibbs' mind

"Alright Cap'n. We will be leaving Tortuga soon."

"Can't we leave now?"

"Everyone is here so I don't see why not. I shall call up Annamaria to stay at the wheel."

"You do that Gibbs, I will go check on our little guest."

At that Will went back below deck. Kaile was still asleep. 'Fine, I shall wake her.' Will walked over to the bed and sat on it and said her name quite at first and then louder the second time and even louder the third.

"Kaile? Kaile? KAILE!?" she awoke on the third time

"What in the bloody hell do you want?"

"I want to talk to you."

"Fine." that was when he realized she had no clothes on, she sat up with the sheet wrapped around her

"Would you like to dress first?"

"I will when you leave, just make your talking fast."

"Ok, I just wanted to say I was sorry for saying what I said to you last night. I was way out of line. I didn't mean it. Really."

"You wanted to touch me?" she laughed

"No thats not what I meant, I meant..... I mean......"

"I know what you meant I am just messing with you. Is that all? Can you leave now?"

"First of all this is my room and you will never tell me to leave it. And second I will be sleeping in my bed from now on. Third, isn't there anything you want to say to me?"

"No not at all, I am not going to say I am sorry. Because anything I did to you you had coming. Now I am going to ask you nicely to please leave so I can get dressed."

"I am going to leave now, but only because I am a gentleman." at that she laughed "And I deserved the punch, but you didn't have to knock me out."

"Really? I think I did, if I didn't I wouldn't have had the chance to sleep in your bed. Which I believe is now mine."

"We can discuss who's bed it is later, just get dressed and come and find me when you are, there are somethings we have to talk about."

Will walked onto the deck for the second time that morning.

The Black Pearl

Jack awoke with an empty spot next to him. 'Where is Elizabeth?' was his first thought. He went on deck to look for her.

"Sleep well?" he turned to find Elizabeth at the wheel

"WHO LET HER STEER THE PEARL!!!!!"

Jacks second mate came up to him "I showed her what to do and now she is trying it. She caught on fast Cap'n."

he muttered more to himself "What is this world coming to!!" than spoke to Elizabeth "Lizzie, luv, please be careful with her!"

"Don't worry Captain, I will do just fine."

"I need more rum, and maybe a gun."

The Sliver Dolphin

Kaile decided to take her dear sweet time in getting dressed. 'Should I make the bed? Umm? Yea I will, it will make it look like it is mine.'

She looked around the room. At the pictures, maps, and mirrors. She had a horrible black eye from the fight last night. It was swollen. It was very dark in this room so she walked up to the deck.

"Will?" she looked around and didn't see him but she did see the old man from the night before

"Hey you!" Gibbs looked over to her

"Yes little miss?"

"Call me Kaile, do you know where Will is?"

"He went below deck. The door is just over there." he pointed behind him

"Ok." she walked over to it and went down "Will? Where are you?" it was very dark down here

"Over here. Just follow the sound of my voice." she did

"What in bloody 'ell are you doing down here?"

"Well, when I saw your eye I decided to come down here to get a cold rag."

"I don't need one!" she protested but knew it would put the swelling down

"Yes you do, come over here and take a seat!"

"Fine, Fine!" she walked over to the table he was at and took a seat, the room was lit only be candles

Will pulled his chair right in front of hers and placed the cold rag on her eye. He looked at her and saw she got pretty cut up last night. She had a cut on each arm and one down her cheek.

"What was that fight about?"

"He thought I was a whore. A cheep whore, so I decided to show him otherwise."

"I would hate to make that mistake."

"Too many men do, just because I am a girl in Tortuga doesn't make me a whore."

"Its not only that, you are pretty, that adds quite a bit to it."

She had nothing to say in return. He actually said something nice. She just looked at him with her one eye covered.

Will saw what he said made her uncomfortable.

"Well, not anymore. This black eye takes a lot away from your beauty."

"Hey now! That wasn't nice!!" she kicked him in his shin

"Either was that!!" they both laughed

Will had something that had been bugging him pop back in his head.

"Who were those guys chasing us? And what did they want?"

She wished he hadn't asked.

"Well, this may take a while."

"We have the time."

"Ok, here I go. It all started when I was a young girl. My father was a pirate and so was Jacks, that is how we met. Our fathers were part of the Black Pearls crew. Jack and I had the bright idea to stay on the ship to surprise our dads when they were out at see. So we stayed below deck until the second day, we ventured out and bumped into the Captain. He was just about to throw us over board when Jacks father stopped him. From that day on Jack and I were part of the crew. Jack was 13 and I was 5. That was 13 years ago. Jack and I would do work and help the crew. We were pretty good, didn't cause too much trouble. But the Captain didn't like us. This Captain was a crazy one. His tortures would make your hair stand on end and his ideas were not like most peoples. The trip they were on was one to find this special trail that lead to a great treasure, but first they had to get all the pieces to the puzzle. We went from town to town for two years. On the third year we had it all. So the captain had the great idea to tattoo the pieces onto two people. Not anyone in the crew, too obvious to someone seeking the map. So Jack and I were the two. Half is on my left shoulder and the other on his right." when she said that she turned and pulled her shirt down to show Will, he looked on in sheer shock "I was 8 and had to get a tattoo that I didn't even want. Since then people have been seeking Jack and I for our backs."

"Interesting story, but what does that have to do with those men?"

"I am not there yet. Well Jack and I made a promise to meet in ten years and try to find this treasure. You see that captain never found it because Jack was sick of him and killed him and we ran away with the pieces they found. We burnt them and split up. I was 8 and alone. I lived by myself for ten years and have done a fine job on my own. But when I was 16 I wanted to be a pirate like my father, so I went to Captain Chalo on The Sliver Dolphin and became part of his crew by striking a deal with him. The deal was, to find Jack and go look for the treasure and for when we found it that this would become mine. But he was a man. One night I was called down to his cabin to discuss the map on my back and how to find Jack. So I went down and he told me to take a seat. I did and he got up and walked over to me. He asked to see the half of the map that was on my shoulder. So I did. He touched my shoulder and ran his finger along the course. I hated this, he than grabbed me and threw me onto his bed. He jumped on top of me and I tried to get away but, couldn't. But I always kept a knife in my back pocket. So I played along for a little while until I could get my knife. When I did I stabed him right in his leg than ran out of his room. I was very lucky that day. You see Jack had the Pearl and was coming to attack our ship so the men were preparing at the order of the second mate, seeing as the captain was busy. So I hid until the battle began and than I made a plan to get over to the ship and hide below deck and wait to see who won. At the time I didn't know Jack was the captain. So I swung over to his ship with my cutlass in hand and began to fight. Than I saw him. I stopped fighting and ran to him. He recognized me at once and we ran below to talk. I gave him a fast explanation and than we both went up and fought, we won. I got to lock up the Captain up in the Brig. Than I stayed with Jack for awhile. Then him being Jack, when we got to Tortuga we made plans for when we were going to meet and how to know it was him. He told me he would come on the Dolphin. Then the next day when I went to go to the Pearl it was gone. He left me there by myself. He also threw some of Captains Chalo's crew overboard. Well they swam to Tortuga. And Captain Chalo got away from Jack and came to Tortuga looking for me. Those men are part of his crew. They have been trying to get me for two years. But they are not the smartest group of pirates, so I doubt they will find me. So that is my story. Now I am here with you going to meet Jack.Don't worry those guys will never know were to look for us, on their own ship." Kaile said looking at Will

"I have to show you something. Come on." Will got up and walked away she followed him up to the captains cabin

Will walked over to the chest and opened it.

"Here this is for you, its from Jack. This is the note he left for you."

"A dress? Why would Jack leave me a dress? He knows I hate them!" she read the note and laughed at the parts about will

"He's Jack." Will said and Kaile nodded

"I have to wear it! God no!" she looked very angry "Well I hope Jack doesn't honestly think I am gonna have to wear a dress and not get to drink his rum?" she said more to herself with a gleam in her green eyes

"Ummm, I don't know if that is such a good id....."

"What eunuch??" at that Will snatched a bottle and took a swig

"Save some for me!" she took it from Will

"Get your own!" she decided that wasn't a bad idea so she reached in and got her own

"Jack is really holding out on his crew with this stuff!"

"Should we save some for tonight?"

"Ahhh, sure."

"I wanna go see who this new crew members are." Will put the cork back in his rum and left, Kaile followed she wouldn't drink alone

The Black Pearl

Jack kept his eye on Elizabeth for hours. He didn't want any harm coming to his boat.

"Lizzie aren't you bored yet?" he asked hoping and praying

"No, I am very much enjoying this!" she knew she was hating it but she liked to keep Jack siting on the edge of his seat

"Alright then." he said disappointed
