Summary: Commodore Norrington falls in love with Lady Serenity. But Lady Serenity is actually Silver, Captain Jack Sparrow's partner. In other words, Lady Serenity is no lady, she's a pirate. What will happen when Norrington finds that out?

Chapter 4

Once Silver, Elizabeth, and Will were on the Black Pearl, she sailed off immediately.

Will took Elizabeth to their cabin to warm up, while Silver ran about the ship looking for her things.

"My swords! My swords! Where are they?" she bellowed, searching the deck. "Where the heck are my boots? Where's my bandanna? Who has my shirt?"

"Calm down, you little wench! They're all safe in me room," Captain Jack said.

Silver snickered. "And I suppose you'll be escorting me to my things?"

"Of course! Right this way!" he said roughly, and dragged her to his room.

Once inside, Silver yanked her arm from Jack's hand. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!"

"Something is wrong, Jack. You never do this to me..."

"Maybe because I never knew you loved the bloke who was marrying Anamaria!"

"What?"

"Tom, isn't that his name? He's getting married..."

"To Anamaria..." she finished, curling her hands into fists.

"Uh-oh..."

Silver ran out of the room, searching for the only thing that could control her fists (besides rum). Finding Anamaria's room, she barged in and picked the bed up, propping it up against the wall.

Jack ran in after her, shocked to see what Silver did to control her anger.

Silver started furiously punching the already-beaten bed; first angrily, then slowly ceasing, and she slumped down on the wall next to the bed and started to weep.

Jack walked over to her, and she flung herself upon him and continued crying.

"There, there luv..." he murmured, stroking her hair, which was back in it's original down hairstyle.

The two of them were locked together for a couple of minutes, when Jack realized that she had stopped crying and in fact, fallen asleep.

Sparrow carried her back into his room, gently lowering her on his bed. She looks so beautiful when she's asleep. He continued to watch her until Gibbs came in unexpectedly.

"Here's her ponytail holder," he whispered.

Jack took the silver ribbon band, monogrammed, S.S.

"S.S.? What on earth does that stand for?" he mumbled, sliding it into Silver's hand. For some reason, everytime she had it in her possession, she smiled. But not tonight. She didn't even budge.

"Night, luv," the captain said, walking out the door. Before closing the door, he heard a voice say, "Night captain..."

The sun beamed bright, and Silver was trying to get some sleep. Giving up, she flung the covers off the bed and uttered a loud "aargh!" while rubbing her eyes. Feeling something in her hand, she opened it. Her ponytail holder. Silver got off the bed and looked about for a brush when she realized, I'm not in Ana's room. Where the hell am I then?

Looking around, she panicked and said, "Great. Jack's room. And he doesn't even have a brush!"

Throughing her hands up in the air in rage, she walked over towards Jack's closet and pulled out her shirt, bandanna, and most importantly, her swords. "Where are my boots!" she cried out in frustration. Rummaging through the closet, she still couldn't find them, and decided to take Jack's spare boots instead. Perfect fit, she thought, and smiled.

Silver turned to look at herself in the dresser's mirror, when finding her very own brush. Jack must have brought it here for me. She brushed her hair and put it in her usual ponytail before opening the door and walking out.

She found Jack, at the wheel, and quietly crept up to him. When she got in range, Silver covered his eyes with her hands and gave him a kiss upon each cheek.

"What the--!" started Jack, but then laughed.

Still covering his eyes, Silver whispered in his ear, "Thank you so much!"

"Why are you covering me eyes?"

"I want you to be surprised when you see me dressed!"

"But, I know what you look like in your pirate clothes!" Jack stopped for a moment, smiling. "You're not naked are ye?"

Silver mock-gasped. "Of course not! How would I be able to walk out here without getting stared at?"

"Maybe you were wearing a towel, and just now dropped it on the deck..."

"Keep dreaming captain!"

She let go of her hands, and Jack spun around, eyeing her up and down.

"You don't look...Hey! Those are me boots!"

She laughed. "Well, where are mine?"

"I don't...Anamaria! She took them!"

"She what?"

"Actually, she wore them, but that's the same thing!"

"So, can I have these?"

"Sure luv, hold on. Someone get on deck and steer!" he bellowed. When Will ran up, he took Silver's hand and they went to Jack's room.

When they got there, Jack closed the door behind him and said, "Okay, explain."

"Explain what?"

Jack groaned. "Not again! Listen, explain the whole thing-ma-jig on Tom and Anamaria."

"I don't know all of it, okay?"

"Tell me what ye know then, luv!"

"Fine!" she declared, mumbling, "Geez, no manners at all, ye stupid captain."

Silver took a deep breath and started. "It was years ago. Tom was my betrothed. For my 13th birthday, he took me out on a hidden cove, the same one we hid the Pearl in. We found some cursed Egyptian gold, so when I went home and read about them, I found out their use. We went back the next day, and for fun we decided to keep on for each of us. If one of us ever told a secret of the other, his or her coin was supposed to melt, and the one who told the secret was to get married to the first pirate that they laid eyes on. Well, Tom, he told a secret, just two days ago, he was drunk..."

"He didn't tell them about ye being Silver did 'e?" Jack asked.

"No, it was worse."

"Worse?"

"Well in my opinion it's worse!" she snapped. "He told them that he was marrying Serenity, his little Irish queen."

"What?"

Serenity sighed. "I'm the heir of the Irish royal crown."

"Why did ye become a pirate?"

"Because once I became queen, Tom's betrothal would mean nothing, and I'd have to get married to some old grumpy ruler in order to benefit my country."

"So you ran away, eh? You didn't want to get married..." said Jack, catching on.

"Well, during my whole life since 13, I've only wanted to marry one person. Tom. But now he got married to Anamaria. But, if he told my secret two days ago, while he was drunk, and there's only one pub in Port Royal...that means he told my secret the night I ran away!"

"Figures..."

"No, Jack, don't you see? He was there, I could have stopped him if I...if I..."

"Didn't call me Jackie Bird. 'Cause if ye didn't say that, I wouldn't have dragged you outside, and ye wouldn't fall due to a chicken."

"Hey, so it's my fault now?"

"I didn't say that!"

"You meant it! You insinuated it!"

"Okay, so I did!" Jack said.

"I'm going to give you a smaccident!" she roared, and jumped on his bed, grabbed his pillow, and started attacking him.

"Hey, this isn't a smaccident!" he cried.

"It hurts a lot less doesn't it? Do you want a smaccident?"

"No!" Jack jumped on his bed, grabbed another pillow, and starting whacking Silver.

"Hey! You're cheating!"

"How am I cheating?" Jack stopped and looked around him.

"Because you aren't letting me win!" Silver bopped Jack on the head, and his hat fell on the ground.

"Me hat!" Jack shrieked, and jumped off the bed to save it.

"Oh no you don't!" Silver declared, and jumping off the bed, she used the pillow and swept it to the other side of the room.

"Don't hurt me hat!"

Silver just laughed and dove for the hat. Receiving it, she put it on and looked at Jack.

"Lookie, I'm Jackie Bird and I wear a wannabe pirate hat!"

"No you don't! Stop calling me that Silver, and my hat is not a wannabe!"

"How would you know, you dress like a wannabe!"

"No I don't!"

"Yes you do!"

"No I don't!" Jack roared, and tackled Silver onto the bed. He started to furiously tickle her.

"Jack!" she screamed. "I can't breathe!"

"Then how come your talkin'?"

Silver kept laughing, and tears were coming out of her eyes. "Jack!" she whispered, giggling violently.

"Yes?"

"I'm dying, I need..." she laughed again. "Mouth-to-mouth recessitation!" she shrieked, full of laughter, then suddenly rolled over the bed. A loud thunk occured.

"Ow!"

"Ye deserve it mate!"

"Did not!" she whined, still on the floor.

Jack counted to 30, and when Silver didn't come up, he produced a worried expression.

"Silver, are ye okay?" Jack said, peering over the edge of the bed, surprised to see absolutely nothing.

Silver, who had crept around the bed and was now right on top of Jack, covered his eyes and said, "Boo!"

Jack jumped and fell off the bed, while Silver sat down and laughed.

"I'm going to get you!" he growled.

Silver screamed, and tore out of Jack's room.

Elizabeth awoke to the sound of shrill screams. That is the signiture scream of Serenity, I'd recognize it anywhere. Unfortunately. Groaning, she pulled off the covers and dressed.

Walking out, she saw that Will was at the steering wheel, and flounced up to him. "Morning honey!" she cried.

Will turned around and smiled. "My sunshine is awake, I see."

He asked for another crewmember to steer, and when someone came, Will gave him a pat on the back and said, "Sail us to Tortuga."

Will walked toward Elizabeth. They kissed for a long time, and suddenly Elizabeth started laughing during their osculation and Will broke off, looking puzzled. Elizabeth continued to laugh, and Will thought she looked so funny when she was laughing that he started to laugh too.

"What's going on with Silver?"

"What do you mean?"

"I was sound asleep, but I heard Silver screaming. What's going on?"

"I have no idea."

"Well, you're about to find out, 'cause here Silver comes!" cried Mr. Gibbs.

Silver ran onto the deck and hid behind Elizabeth.

"E! Help me!"

"What?"

"Hide me! He's coming!"

"Who's coming?"

"Jack's coming, he's going to tickle me 'til I die!"

Will rolled his eyes and laughed.

Jack ran up and said, "Hello Will. Morning Elizabeth. Give Silver to me."

"Never!" announced not Elizabeth, but Silver, who was still hiding behind Elizabeth.

Jack smiled, and began to start towards Silver, but not before getting a big smack on the head from Anamaria and her stick.

Jack grabbed his head in pain, and Silver started to laugh again. "Thanks again Ana---" She stopped. "Wait, Anamaria's gone. Who whacked Jack? Hey, it rhymes. So we can give him a Smaccident by playing the game Whack the Jack!" she said, throwing into a fit of giggles.

Jack turned around to see who whacked him on the head with a stick, and turns out it was Will.

"Will mate, what the hell were you thinking?"

"You were going for Elizabeth!"

"I was going for Silver!"

"Well, Silver asked me to."

"She asked you to do what?"

"Everytime she felt in danger, she would hide behind Elizabeth, and I was suppose to whack you on the head," Will said a matter-of-factly.

Silver and Elizabeth just gaped at the two of them. Finally Silver said, "Hello? I did not ask you to do that..."

"I did!" Elizabeth said.

"No you didn't!" Silver responded.

"I didn't?"

"No...did you?"

"I don't remember..."

The four of them stood where they were, trying to figure everything out, when Mr. Gibbs came up to them and asked, "Who wants rum?"

Automatically, Jack and Silver yelled "ME!" and followed Gibbs to the storage room.

"They are so naive. Rum gets everything off their minds!" Will said.

Elizabeth smiled and walked up to Will. They embraced and kissed. Elizabeth then asked, "Why did you whack Jack?"

Will chuckled and said, "Jack's a loony, he needs an occasional whack on the head..."

"Not a 'Smaccident?'" Elizabeth cut in.

"Maybe one of those will get to his head better than a whack from Anamaria's old stick..." Will said, throwing the stick overboard.

Elizabeth, whose eyes were still looking at the spot of water where the stick was thrown, said quietly, "Those two really are perfect for each other."

"They are. But Jack will never settle down for one woman, and you told me yourself that Silver never wanted to marry."

"She did. To Tom. But that's just a fantasy now. That jerk, to do that to Silver. She really loved him, and he had to go off and tell everone at the pub that she was..." Elizabeth realized what she was about to say when she stopped.

"She was what?"

"It's a secret."

"Do you have a cursed Egyptian coin too?"

Elizabeth gasped. "How did you...?"

"Silver gave hers to me. She said it's completely worthless magic, but I could probably get 60 shillings for it."

"No, I don't have a cursed Egyptian coin, but I promised."

"She would have told me, you know that. The four of us are a band of the most closest friends."

"You're right. Very well, Silver is the heir of the Irish royal crown."

"That's a secret?"

"A very valuable one, considering an Irish princess is also a pirate..." she retorted.

"Why'd she run away?"

Elizabeth sighed. "The last marriage she was almost forced into was to the king of Russia, for the benefit of Ireland."

"The king of...wait, isn't he 40 years older than her?"

"Yes, and she Russia needs an heir..." Elizabeth trailed off.

"That is disgusting!" Will said shockingly.

"Do you really think her parents care?"

"Well, her parents are the same age..."

"But they have absolutely no feelings toward their daughter." Elizabeth said, and walked back into the cabin.

The commodore grew a worried expression. They had already searched the area around and below Sun Peak, and there was no sign of Serenity, Elizabeth, or Will. Norrington sighed, remembering the joy Serenity had brought into his life when he was miserable. "I can still remember her laugh, her smile, her divine beauty, and now it's lost," he mumbled.

He was lost in a daze, when suddenly a shout awakened him. "Commodore, look what we've found!"

Norrington rushed over toward the left side of the ship and looked down. Serenity's veil. The commodore gave a countenance of sadness, and ordered, "Turn this ship around and bring it back to dock. I'm afraid she's gone..."

When they got back to Port Royal, Norrington saw Tom and Anamaria walking through the streets. "Is that you Tom?" he cried out, and hastened his steps toward them.

Tom turned around to see the commodore. Anamaria whispered, "Let's go already, what if he recognizes me?"

But Tom stood in his place and when Norrington was standing in front of him Tom asked, "Where is Serenity?"

"She's...gone. She wanted to get married at Sun Peak, and she said that she would never fall off...but she did. We searched everywhere..."

Anamaria smiled. "I might know where she is!" she said triumphantly, then realizing her outburst, she coward behind Tom.

"Aren't you part of Sparrow's crew?"

"Nope, not anymore!" she squeaked. Norrington looked skeptical.

Tom came to her rescue. "We decided to get married, so she's a wife now, no longer a pirate." Anamaria furiously nodded her head in agreement.

"Well, you seem to know where my fiance is, so do tell."

Anamaria gave a guilty look. "She went back on the Black Pearl..."

"She what?"

Tom butted in. "What my darling Anamaria is trying to say is that Serenity fell in, and the Black Pearl, took her hostage."

Anamaria nodded violently again. "I have a problem with being concise..."

The commodore nodded in approval towards the two of them. "Thank you, your information is greatly appreciated. Do you happen to know where the Black Pearl is headed?"

Anamaria and Tom shrugged, and simultaneously said, "Tortuga?"

Man, that was a long chapter. Hoped you liked it! Please read and review. Don't forget to play Whack the Jack with someone (his name doesn't have to be Jack, just whack somebody!) because it really lets your stress out. But I can't say anything for the person getting whacked! I guess it just creates more stress...oh well!
