::: Peri's Point of View :::
Did I just scream? I did! I never scream. Okay, Okay calm down Peri. Your only alone, naked, in a bed next to Jack Sparrow, an infamous pirate captain who is grinning wolfishly down at you. Okay calm.
"What do you think your doing?" I ask in a deadly cold voice, my hazel eyes narrowing.
"It would seem I was starring at ye luv." He answered cheekly.
"Why am I naked?" I grated out quietly.
"You are? You sure? Let me check, luv..." He leaned over as if to check under my sheet. And trust me, he was quite surprised when my fist met his cheek and he went flailing, and toppled over the chair. I grinned, because it was after all amusing to see the almighty pirate cap'n to be so easily conquered by a sixteen year old girl. I'm sure his crew will find this story amusing. Blackmail for the future... WHOA- What futute? None. Right. My amusment quickly vanished as the angry Captain got to his feet and quickly rubbed his now brusing cheek. I tightened my sheet. Oh gosh, he's going to kill me. My handed wandered around by my side, searching for my sword that was not there.
"Er- Jack. Let's be reasonable about this. I forgive you. You forgive me." I really hated making this compromise, as I had never really learned the word compromise. But Jack Sparrow was scary looking when he was livid with anger. And then my eyes couldn'd help but wondering torwards all those knives, pistols and other weapons gleaming dangerously at his side. His crossed his arms and glared down at me.
"It's Captain Jack Sparrow." He said. I sputtered.
"Yer not my Captain." The words escaped before I even had a chance to think.
"This is me ship, and I'm the Captain luv." He seemed to be waiting for me to utter the words, 'Yes Captain.' He'd be waiting an awfully long time. I crossed my arms over my chest and just glared. He tapped his foot impatiently. "Well luv?" He asked finally upset.
"I'd never call you my Captain."
"You know what I do with unruly crewmates? Luv?'
"I'm not a crewmate."
"I feed em- to the fishes." I faltered for just an instant. His smug grin said he noticed my reaction. I straightened a bit. My eyes returning with defiance.
"I can swim-" I schreeched as Jack stepped foreward and scooped me up. "What in the 'ell are you doing?" I stutter as he balances my weight and makes torwards the cabin door, my sheet till rapped tightly around me.
"Allowing ye to swim, luv." My eyes searched for any escape and landed on my sword.
"My effects Sparrow." Jack stopped and look thoughtful for a moment, almost distant. He swung torwards the wooden deck and allowed me to pick up my sheathed sword and the locket my father had given me as a parting gift. The locket was a strange one, the clasp being extremely difficult to open. But after hours of work one boring night I had opened it. Inside was a small key, one that could open a small diary or such. What a strange parting gift. But I didn't ponder this as I clasped the necklace around my neck. I finally noticed my burning wrists. Red, stinging welts encircled both of them, where the rope had been. I was starting to feel exsaution oversome me from the days of my illness. We walked onto the dark deck. On the far horizon dawn was starting to color the sky. But I quickly noticed what looked like the whole crew of the Black Pearl was wondering around deck as though trying to look busy. My eyes fell on a healthy looking Ben and Patchs. I gave them a lopsided grin.
Jack quickly walked over to the side of the ship dangling me over the side.
"Jack Sparrow! What in the 'ell are you doing!" A girl who looked a few olders than her stepped foreward. She was clearly a well seasoned pirate though. Black hair and dark skinned. Her only hope of rescure. But Jack ignored the girl.
"Say it luv." He said smugly. No I wouldn't. I looked over at the waves, not to bad. There seemed to be a smudge of land to my right. I think I could make the swim. "s'Not that hard luv."
"Your not my Captain." I said in an annoyed voice. Sounding more brave than I felt. The steely look never left his eyes. And I saw this act for what it was. An example of his power to his crew. He was going to drop me into the cold sea. And suddenly I had an idea. "Your going to drop me into the cold sea, Mr. Sparrow?" I asked softly, my eyes downcast, trying to appear weak.
"All me wants is to be called by me right title, luv." He said encouragingly.
"All right your a Jack-As" I shouted and with a well placed blow to his jaw he dropped me in surprise. Clearly not the way he wanted his crew to see him, being shown up by a young girl who was supposed to be begging for her life. But with a proud smirk, I started smimming off torwards the small island. The locket and sword both in my posession.
::Back on board the Pearl::
Ana Maria heard a loud splash as the girl's dog jumped over board to be with his master. She grabbed the small cabin boy just in time. Jack's loud cursing could be heard from miles around.
"Captain?" Ana Maria asked calmly, all most arrogantly.
"What the 'ell is it Ana?" Jack asked through a sting of colorful curses.
"Jack why did you take the ship in the first place?" Jack cast an annoyed glance over at her.
"What bloody ship?"
"The one with the Taylorn/Turner girl." Suddenly it hit him. He looked longingly at the retreating back of Peri Taylorn/Turner. The one with the key to the biggest pirates treasure in the Carribean. The one with the key to Bootstrap Bill and Brass Knuckle Joe's buried treasure. She was the only heir of Joe. He had known this before setting out for her. But when she given her last name as Turner, he knew she'd known of Bootstrap. Bootstrap lately rumored to be on the Isle of Silver Win, with his and Joe's treasure. There was only one key to get to the map, and it just swam away. Jack dropped his head, chucked off his coat , hat and most of his weapons before diving in after his gold.

The sheet was dragging her under, as she and Patchs made their way to the small island. And finally giving up in vain, Peri dropped her sheet and continued on her way, her muscles screaming in agony. What would she need to cover on a deserted island, anyway? And so as she neared shore and was about to step up, modesty overtook her. She was being stupid. She looked around. The Pearl was still anchored but no one could see her from here. But wait-- What was that little bobbing dot? It looked like- no. No. NOOO. Jack Sparrow was on his way after her, the smug little smile disappeared as she realized she was not going onto the pirate ship again, naked. And Jack was not going to see her naked. So gathering her courage she and Patchs made a run to the nearby woods.

Ye like? Any suggestions on who this little meeting should turn out?
