A/N: Hey everyone! I'm finally updating this crazy story. I know it's been forever and a day, but I couldn't help it. I feel awful for leaving all of you dangling. I had awful writer's block and a terrible workload to deal with. After reading the story of my friend, IdrilThePirate (read her amazing stories, they're WONDERFUL), I had inspiration. Thanks, my dear! I love you! So, here I am. . . Hopefully it's just as good as when I started. Enjoy!

Norrington's Plan

While all of Jack's problems were going on, time continued to move forward and Norrington, the Navy captain who'd been out for Jack's head from the moment he'd stepped onto Port Royal land, continued to search for him.

"Gentlemen, we MUST find Jack Sparrow."

Eyes darted around, each looking at a mate's pair. No one would say a word.

Norrington was a bit miffed at why there were no comments, but decided it didn't matter and moved on. "Men, Jack Sparrow has been here. A townsman spotted him near the blacksmith shop," Norrington gritted his teeth, "which means he's seen Mr. William Turner."

He wouldn't voice it, but he knew this meant that Jack had seen Elizabeth too. Elizabeth was something special to Norrington. He proposed marriage to her a few weeks ago. She accepted until Will became a hero and saved Jack from a scheduled hanging. He would never admit it to anyone, but Norrington loved Elizabeth more than anything and to see her with Will Turner made him sick.

"You will go to the blacksmith shop and ask anyone there if they know where Jack went. Two of you will come with me and go to the Turner house. Someone's bound to be there." Norrington had a revengeful look on ins face, almost as if hanging Jack would be the best thing he could accomplish in life.

"Sir, what if no one is at either place?" asked a very timid Navy member.

"Then we go to the ship and sail for Isla de Muerta."

A round of gasps was heard around the room before Norrington dismissed them all into what would be an extremely grueling task to find Jack Sparrow.

A/N: Well, I know it's short, but I had to get something up. And Norrington's plan isn't all that complicated. More will come. If anyone has any advice as to where I can take this, PLEASE email me at The ideas would be much appreciated. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my first update in over a year. Hopefully there will be more to come. I do enjoy writing this fiction.

IdrilThePirate, thanks for the inspiration to start writing again. You know how much you mean to me. ) Keep writing the way you do. It's great.
