Some of you seem to think that Saihrena has been found. Whatever would give you that idea? I simply said sail ho, and no quarter given. Does that sound like a happy Jack that's about to rescue his love to you? Na uh... well on with the story!

Chapter 29

Lost and Found

Saihrena walked back to her cabin in a daze. The hoots and catcalls from the men were completely lost to her ears. She truly had no idea what to do. The king of Portugal had kidnapped her now and would force her to marry him.

"Saihrena what happened?" Rakasha asked as Saihrena entered the room and closed and locked the door. Saihrena didn't hear her though. She simply walked to her silks and lay down. "Rena?" Kasha asked, coming over and sitting next to her friend. This seemed to break her from her reverie and she looked up at her friend's anxious face.

"He's here," she whispered.

"He who?"

"Morgead, it's Morgead for God sakes," Saihrena yelled. Kasha studied her for a moment, wondering if Rena had gone insane.

"How could Morgead be here? He's in Portugal ruling," Kasha said.

"He was first mate here with Huske, he found out Huske was trying to find the Pearl and joined up. Now he's Captain Kasha, he said he's taking us back to Portugal where we can be married." Rena broke into tears at the prospect of this. Kasha took her in her arms and held the sobbing woman.

"Well at least we're not going to Turkey," Kasha whispered. Saihrena nodded through her sobs, trying to calm herself. "And I bet Jack's coming for us, why he could be here right now for all we know."

"Sail ho," they heard a muffled voice yell. Saihrena looked up into her friends eyes.

"Do you think?" Rena whispered. Kasha just shook her head in confusion. Rena stood and went to the door. "I need to know," she said as she unlocked it and stepped out. Kasha was right on her heels and she sped up down the hallway, up the stairs and onto deck.

"What's happening?" Kasha asked a passing sailor in Turkish.

He looked them over for a moment before answering. "Pirates are on our heels, and their flying Jolie Rouge."

(AN. For all who do not know what this is, which I'm sure is many because I didn't even know the name Jolie Rouge until I looked it up, this is a flying red flag instead of a Jolly Roger. Pirates would fly the red flag when no quarter was given. They called it Jolie Rouge which means, oddly enough, pretty red. But it also signified blood and as I said in the last chapter no quarter given means kill everyone. And I just found out that pirates would use different pictures on their Jolly Roger flags to identify which pirate it was. So I will now be doing this. Anyway now that we all have more information about pirate flags and lingo BACK TO THE STORY!)

Jack smiled evilly at the ship he was approaching. He had told them to fly the red a lot sooner than necessary but he figured he would give them time to ready themselves, they would need it.

"Captain, are you sure you want no quarter given, sir?" Bandit asked from his place at the helm.

"Yes," Jack said. He wanted blood. If he could not have his love by his side he would kill whoever crossed his path until she was there.

"You won't get her back that way," Bandit said and Jack turned to stare at the man in shock and disbelief.

"What way?" Jack asked.

"By killing everyone and destroying everything, she wouldn't want that Jack."

"How-"

"Did I know what you were thinking?" Bandit cut Jack off, laughing at his Captain. "Because the very same thoughts ran through my head when I saw the ship, but it's not what Rakasha would have wanted from me. Ask the others to kill all, but do not ask me to Jack," Bandit said. Jack nodded once in response. He knew Bandit was right.

"I can't change it now," Jack whispered. Bandit nodded and looked out to sea. They were fast approaching the ship and soon the fight would begin. God help all that came within Jack's reach. They would not last very long.

Saihrena ran to the side of the ship and looked behind them. She gasped in disbelief at what she saw. "He's here," she whispered as tears began to fall down her cheeks. He had come for her. Her heart swelled with love as she saw the Black Pearl gaining on this piddling little ship.

"Get below," a man growled, grabbing her by the wrist and throwing her to the ground. "Don't ye know nothin missy? That there ship's the Black Pearl and she's flying a red. If I was ye I'd hide and neva come out. Be betta than what that Cap'n 'as planned." She smirked up at him, then stood and brushed herself off.

"Don't you know anything you foul excuse for a man. The Black Pearl is my ship, I am not only a crewmember but I am also Captain Jack Sparrow's lover. Your Captain and his first mate kidnapped me and my friends from that ship. If I were you I'd get down on my knees and beg me for mercy because there is no other way you will live if you do not," she said dangerously. His eyes grew big as she spoke.

"What if yer lyin? He asked.

"What would I have to gain by lying to you?" He nodded his head.

"Yer right, I'm sorry missy; ye need anythin ye ask me, I be Joe Burns, Burns fer short."

"Well a sword and a pistol would be nice," she said hopefully.

"I sword I might be able te get, but a pistol I couldn't," Joe said.

"Thank you Joe, I will be on deck for a while." He nodded and then took off. Mayhem was happening all around her. Men were running around deck, cannons were being loaded recklessly, swords were being thrown around, and sails were being hoisted as they tried to outrun the Pearl. She chuckled at this, as if they could ever outrun her. She walked to the stairs with Kasha and watched with amusement. This would be something to remember.

A loud boom sounded, and she knew a cannon had been shot prematurely. She smirked to herself knowing Jack's men would never do something so foolish as to waste a cannonball.

"I said do not fire until they are within range," Morgead yelled. She ducked behind Kasha as he came into the open and began berating the unfortunate child that had lit the fuse. The boy couldn't have been more than fifteen; it was truly Morgead's fault for assigning him to the cannons.

The Pearl was growing closer by the second and soon the black ship would be within cannon range. She prayed for her friends on that ship, she prayed for Jack, but mostly she prayed for freedom again. Morgead left without noticing the two of them standing in the shadows.

"I wish I had been wearing pants when we had been caught," Kasha murmured to which Rena readily agreed. It had been a pain to be wearing the long dress.

"Miss Saihrena?" A man asked.

"Joe, yes?" She asked with a slight smile.

"I brought your sword," he whispered, handing her a wrapped bundle.

"Thank you Joe. I suggest when the fighting starts you stay behind Kasha and I if you want to live," Saihrena said brusquely. Joe nodded and left. Another boom ripped through the air and the ship she was on rocked back and forth. They had been hit. In all the excitement of being rescued she had forgotten about the dangers of cannon fire. She moved her weight instinctively with the ship to avoid falling.

Cannons began firing from both ships suddenly. The battle had begun. Saihrena and Kasha kneeled down and huddled together. The smaller a target they were the better. Soon the cannons stopped firing and she looked up. There she was, the Black Pearl in all her beauty and splendor, in front of her very eyes. Tears sprang to said eyes and she stood up and pulled the sword from its bundle.

"Board," she heard a familiar voice yell. She had missed Jack so much in her month away from him. She could barely believe it had only been a month since last she saw him.

"Stay behind me. We need to make our way to the Pearl," Saihrena yelled over the clashing of swords and screams of the dying.

"M'lady dun' let them kill me," she heard a voice yell and looked up to see Joe running from Ana Maria. Ana stopped in her tracks at seeing Rena.

"Rena, you're here," she whispered as Joe cowered behind them.

"Oh Ana it's wonderful to see you. I have promised this man his life for his help, please see that my promise is kept Ana? I'm going to find Jack," Saihrena said as her and Kasha briefly embraced their friend. Ana nodded and grabbed Joe by the scruff.

"If yer with us then fight," she yelled at Joe.

Rena took off towards the Pearl, slaying any man that stood in her way. They deserved death for what they had done. Saihrena and Kasha made it rather quickly to their ship.

"Kasha get to the Pearl and find a weapon, keep safe," Rena said. "I need to find Jack." Kasha nodded and ran across the gangplank at a crazy speed. Saihrena paid it no heed though and turned back to the battle. From the looks of it her crew was winning. There were more pirates than Turkish sailors to be seen, and more were dropping by the second. She glanced around searching for the familiar dreadlocks and tri-cornered hat.

"There you are," she whispered as she spotted Jack. Her heart leapt into her mouth as she saw who he was fighting. Morgead stood in front of him with a dark smile on his face and a sword in front of a defenseless Jack. Morgead had somehow knocked Jack's cutlass from his hand and he stood proudly in front of the ass, awaiting his death.
