"You slipped in right under Norrington's nose!" Elizabeth exclaimed over tea. "How?"
"Easy," Elsa explained. "Disguises." She lifted the cloak from her lap gingerly.
"But, how did it work?"
"Norrington, the old sod," Jack laughed. "He wouldn't know if Blackbeard himself stepped foot on his docks!"
"I am so glad you're back!" Danielle screamed, trying to stop herself from hugging Elsa again.
"Keep it on the down-low Turner," Elsa said. "Norrington will not find out."
"Yes ma'am. You have me solemn promise," Danielle swore piratically.
"I love you man," Elsa giggled. "I have missed you so much. You have no idea."
"Same here. I had nothing to do all day but think of you."
"But my question is: Why does everyone think the Black Pearl and her crew have been sunk? Killed?" Will asked, his face alight with confusion. As usual.
Jack and Elsa looked at each other mournfully, then looked at their friends.
"You mean it's true?" Elizabeth whispered. "The crew? The ship?"
"Aye, a ship went down and her crew-all lost to Davy Jones' locker," Jack said, removing his hat.

"Off the shores of Valparaisa," Elsa continued. "Those poor, unfortunate souls. The poor Black Death." She lowered her eyes to the coat in her lap-then she looked up with a sly smile on her lips.
"The Black Death?" whispered Will.
"But, that's not the-"
"Precisely!" Jack yelled, slapping his hat back on his head happily. "They got the bloody names wrong, can't you see?"
"Brilliant!" Elizabeth squealed, almost dropping her tea cup.
"Jack!" Danielle said suddenly.
"Yes?" the pirates answered simultaneously.
"Elsa, I mean!" Danielle corrected herself. Everyone laughed as Danielle blushed a little. "Sorry."
"Yes, mate?" Elsa said. "What's on that blacksmith mind o' yers?"
"You sound more and more like a pirate every day," Elizabeth smiled.
"Finally! It's been a few years now," Jack said, looking at Elsa comically.
"Aye it has.But now it's different. What was it you were saying Will?"
"I wasn't saying anything, Elsa," Will said, confused again.
"I meant Danielle. My apologies."
"Dom! What about Dom!" Danielle said, not being able to contain her question any longer.
"What about 'im?" Elsa asked, draining her cup of tea.
"Where is he? Are you two still...?"
"You mean Dominic Andrews? The Scot? The one I tried to have killed? The one who was secretly courting my young daughter behind my back?!" Jack yelled, standing up.
Danielle gulped.
Elsa stifled a laugh.
Jack sat back down hastily.
"Yeah, he's back on the ship," he said calmly. He, too, drained his tea cup.
"You two are just full of trickery this day aren't you?" Elizabeth sighed.
"Pirates," they said simply, with that trademark grin.
