Julia kept watching and waiting for the Black Pearl to start off after the ship. The Black Pearl didn't move an inch. Julia waited a few more minutes. Nothing happened. The silence was unbearable for she knew that by now there should be cannons and gunshots going off and smoke all over the place but it was still clear.

She said an ugly curse word before stomping inside to get Will and Elizabeth. She went inside their room and started yelling franticly.

"There's a ship coming up to the harbor! Get up! Jack isn't doing anything about it!" she cried, shaking Will.

Will grumbled in his sleep and rolled over on his other side. Julia sighed with frustration and said, "It's happening! He's coming! Get up!"

Will opened one of his eyes and glanced around for a moment before sitting up in the bed. He snorted and looked at Julia.

"What were you saying?" he said with a hoarse voice.

"Oh just come on!" Julia grabbed Will's arm and pulled him out of bed and dragged him outside. She let go of his arm when they were out and ran to the very edge of the cliff shouting, "See! See! It's a pirate ship! Look! There's the Jolly Roger!"

Will walked next to her and studied the ship with a hand to his chin. "It's too dark, how can you tell if it's the Jolly Roger flag?"

Julia looked closer and suddenly felt extremely stupid. It wasn't the Jolly Roger flag; it was an ordinary Caribbean flag that just seemed darker than before since it was about two in the morning.

Julia looked at him and tried to think of an explanation. Her face brightened when she figured out the perfect one.

"What ordinary ship would sail at this time at night?"

Will considered this and squinted his eyes harder at the ship. He mumbled something before realizing what it was.

"That's the Commodore's ship, Julie."

"What's he doing sailor around?!"

"I don't know but I'm going back to bed," Will said, annoyed as he walked back into the house.

Julia watched the ship for about thirty more minutes, watching it pull into the harbor. When people started coming out of the ship, she tried her hardest to see if there were any swashbuckling characters. There wasn't. All she saw was a few sailors and then she saw a woman come out. She was beautiful with flowing blond hair and dressed in particularly fancy clothes. After she came out, Julia saw the Commodore.

Julia stayed awake that whole night. Was that the Commodore's wife? Why were they arriving in the middle of the night? Julia had a feeling that trouble was going to start. She knew how Commodore Norrington acted around Elizabeth and didn't like it at all.

The next morning she decided to go to the Governor's house and see what was going on. She knocked hard on his door and another maid answered this time. Julia ignored her "Hello!"s and bumped passed her. She opened the doors to the study without knocking and walked in.

"Grandfather, do you know anything about…" Julia blurted but stopped when she saw them.

The Commodore and the woman she saw earlier were sitting with the Governor, chatting until Julia barged in. Everyone turned to look at her and her face flushed. The woman smiled and the corner of Commodore Norrington's mouth twitched.

"Julia! What a nice surprise! Here, come meet Commodore's lady friend, Fran!" said the Governor.

Julia smiled weakly and sat next to the Governor. He smiled even more and said, "Fran, this is my granddaughter Julia! Commodore, you remember Julia, don't you?"

"Yes, I remember," said Commodore Norrington while looking at Julia with no expression.

Fran stuck out her hand with a cheeky smile and said, "Nice to meet you!"

Julia forced a smile and shook her hand. Then, she turned to the Governor and said, "Well, uh… I was going to ask you something but I can see you're busy so I'll just go…"

The Governor sighed and said, "Very well. See you tomorrow at lunch!" It was obvious that he thought she was going to tell him more about Barbossa's Nephew.

Before Julia reached the door, Commodore Norrington said, "Tell your mother to come down and visit, wont you?"

Julia grimaced and nodded. Fat chance, she thought.

That night when Jack came, Julia actually came out of her room. Jack was already sitting there, chatting with Elizabeth and Will. Julia took a chair beside Elizabeth and sat, looking at Jack.

"Did you see it?" she asked, interrupting Will who was saying something to Jack already.

"Don't be rude!" said Elizabeth.

"See what, luv?" Jack said, looking at her.

"The ship last night."

"Er… No, but I 'ad Cotton on the lookout last night and he didn't tell me it was the right one so I had no worries."

"He never tells you anything, you mangy rat!" she said while standing up, going to her room and slamming the door.

Jack looked around with a confused face as if he'd just missed what happened. "What's with her?"

Will sighed and rubbed her forehead. "She's just so wild these days…"

"Hey, she's a pirate, mate."
