Alex and Mercy split up and quickly rounded up all the members of the crew. They were a little annoyed about having to leave so early, but most of them had spent all their money already. Everyone met back at the small boats and rowed to the Temptress. In the middle of the night, the Temptress sailed away from Port April without a trace.

Jack walked into the tavern. There was nobody in there since it was morning. The barman was cleaning a glass with a dirty rag.

"G'morning," Jack said to the barman, approaching him. The barman looked at Jack wearily.

"G'morning," he replied. Jack sat at the bar.

"I'm lookin' fer some information," Jack said. The barman continued to clean the glass.

"I'm sorry mate, don't know what yeh talking 'bout," he replied. Jack grinned and placed a few coins on the bar. The man picked them up and bit into one of them. Seemingly satisfied, he put the rag and glass down.

"What do yeh need to know?" he asked.

"That's better," Jack said, "now, I need to know where the Temptress is, and where she's heading." The barman laughed.

"Yeh too late. The Temptress left port last night, in quite a rush." he said. Jack scowled.

"Well, where is she headin'?" he asked, placing a few more coins on the bar. The man laughed, pushing the coins back.

"Cap'n DeGrae isn't stupid, mate. He don't tell anyone where he's heading," he said. Jack sighed and picked up his coins.

"Thanks anyway," Jack said, standing up. He swiftly walked out, heading to the Black Pearl. Gibbs walked up to him.

"Where we headin'?" he asked. Jack frowned.

"Port Benjamin is the closest port from here, right? We'll just head there, hopefully we'll be in luck and run across the Temptress." he said. Gibbs nodded and ran off, giving directions. Jack sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. His hangover was gradually getting worse. He couldn't even remember buying that much rum. He walked to the helm and began leading the Pearl out of the docks.
