"Where's Sparrow?" asked Norrington ignoring Turner's comment.
No one moved or spoke, apparently trying to listen for Sparrow.
"Where is Sparrow?" he asked again this time as though he believed he was talking to a dog. Yet again no one spoke or moved.
Jack sat behind the bar where he could easily see Norrington, who was becoming very angry and red in the face. "He looked like a raspberry" noted Jack, but quickly cleared it from his thoughts.
All the Commodore had to do was look around and he'd find Jack, because pirates didn't blend in very well. You could say that Norrington hated Will for "stealing" his fiancée that he couldn't stand being there in his home.
Time passed and Jack grew impatient and thought that he could give Commodore a good scare. He jumped out of behind the bar and began to walk over towards the navy men.
"Commodore!" he said with fake passion, "Where have ye been?"
He paused to hear what Norrington had to say and was sure he heard him say something, but all he could make out was something like, "Hunting you".
He laughed and said, "Ye can't hunt me mate!"
Commodore didn't seem to know what to say, so Jack continued, "But I am ready for another adventure!"
By that time, however Gillette had returned, with the irons close by hand.
"Ye haven't ranked much" Jack commented as Norrington ordered Gillette lock him in irons.
Gillette snorted as to say, "Coming from you…"
Gabriella walked back into the room trying to avoid the glances of everyone, but failed.
"Miss, you have assisted in the capture of a dangerous criminal", Norrington stated using a familiar saying, he inquired, "What is your name?"
She hesitated, but answered, "Gabriella Lampion, sir".
"Well it is nice to meet you Miss Lampion," he said slightly bowing to be a proper gentleman, "Now, not to be rude, who are your parents, may I ask?"
Gabi looked as though she had just swallowed a bar of soap.
"Uhh…" Gabi muttered.
She couldn't say "pirates" or Anamaria and Ivan Lampion/ He could know Ana from Jack! She stood there her eyes to the floor not knowing what to say.
"Us", muttered Elizabeth coming out of her shell.
"You?" asked Commodore shocked.
It was a perfect answer. Will and Elizabeth parents; It was so mysterious!
"Yes…" said Elizabeth nodding empathetically.
"How?" asked Commodore thinking aloud. He retained his thoughts inside his own head, "Wasn't Will a eunuch?" He rethought knowing that was inappropriate for a young girl such as Gabriella.
"Miss Lampion, how old are you?" he asked using the obvious train of thoughts that he had avoided at first.
Gabi didn't know what to say, or even if to tell the truth. "13" she said shakily aloud for one of the few times in her life.
"Why does it matter?" asked Jack trying to help Gabi avoid the subject.
"Does it not seen odd, raising a girl to 13 in two years?" Commodore asked.
Jack smirked and smartly replied, "With medical miracles these days…", but stopped as he received a look from Will as if to say, Shut up and let me do the talking.
"You see, Commodore, we adopted her" said Will with his hand firmly sat on Elizabeth's shoulders, "Just a couple of days ago".
"Very well," said Norrington, "I believe thanks are in order".
He stuck his hand out perhaps to shake, or maybe look for her pirate brand. She put her hand out to meet his apparently protesting, but dealt with the moment.
However as their hands met he quickly went to pull up he dress's sleeve, the one with her Lampion mark! Jack sighed with relief with the thought of Ana refusing to give her a brand as a child.
However Norrington noticed the lamp and quickly questioned it.
"What's this?" he asked arrogantly.
"Err, nothing" she said trying to pull away, but failing.
"If you do not wish to tell me, I shall have to take you in with Sparrow there", said Commodore motioning to him. Jack was giving nasty remarks and gestures to the guards. She sighed as she heard him murmur, "It's Captain Sparrow…"
"It's nothing" she said again trying to act more confident.
"Very well, take them away!" said Norrington with a smirk on his face. Was he pleased Elizabeth had lost something she had loved as well?
"No!" pleaded Gabi snapping Norrington back into reality.
"I said, take them away!" ordered the Commodore.
As they dragged Gabi and Jack to the cell she heard him under his breath, "Don't worry love, William taught me how to get out".
