Recognizable characters that you just don't recognize because you're having a bad day? Not mine, though I'd like to stake claim for them just that day.

Jack crouched in front of the wooden door that trapped him and Ana Maria inside of their room. He had tried everything he could think of to unlock the door and escape.

"Jack, leave it, will ya? They may be stupid, but not tha' stupid!" She rolled her eyes and sat back on the chair, placing her boots on the bed.

Jack turned and glared at her, mimicking her facial features and rolling his eyes just as she did. "Jack, stop bein' such a child!" He had been really annoying to her the whole time they had been stuck in the small, cramped room. They were shoved in last night and had no idea what had become of their other two friends.

Jack sat back, off of his haunches, and let out a sigh. "This is the most ridiculous thin' tha's ever 'appened ter me," he said, standing up and sitting begrudgingly on the bed.

"How's tha' Captain?" Ana asked, looking at him curiously. Jack twiddled his thumbs.

"First, they bring us to some stupid room or cell, whatever you call that stupid place we were thrown in…take 'Lizabeth some'ere—we don't know where. Then, as if we weren't happy in there, the stupid Spanish gits drag us separately into nicer rooms, making Will go into a different'un than us…and yet we still don't know where the hell the lass is!" He threw his arms around grandly, eyes wide. "What the hell kind o' capturin' is this!"

Ana Maria smiled and shook her head. "They aren't pirates, just stupid Spanish idiots workin' fer the smart'uns. Tha's why." She sidled down, further into the chair, preparing to sleep to pass the time.

Jack sat up straight. "Tha's it! Ana, you genius! Now I know why I ne'er listened ter Gibbs and 'is 'woman on board is bad luck' ploy!" He stood up and started pacing. Ana just watched, arching her eyebrow.

"Somebody is tellin' 'em wot ter do! Ana Maria, you see!" She just looked at him, thinking he was even more insane than she already thought. "Somebody wif more power! It's Norrington, I'm sure of it!" He turned around to look at Ana Maria, with a wild wide-eyed look and picked her up to kiss her. "Thankyou Ana!"

He set her down and they both looked at each other, wide-eyed before turning away and walking to their respected corners.

Will moved closer to the warmth in front of him. With a yawn, he stretched and let out a yawn. Cracking open one eye, he saw said warmth pull him tighter to her. With a grin, he allowed her to believe he was still asleep, feeling her hands move down his back and snuggle into him further.

He leant forward and deposited a kiss upon her lips, strongly enough to cause her to open her eyes tiredly. With a small yawn to which she covered her mouth daintily, she grinned up at her lover. "Good morning," she drawled, kissing the stubble resting at his chin.

"Good morning," he said, grinning back. The grin left his face as if he suddenly remembered what had occurred just the day before. Elizabeth noticed this and likewise happened with her features.

"We'd better get dressed," he said, knowing she understood. With a sad nod, she unwrapped herself from his arms and kept the sheet about her abdomen modestly as she prepared to get up.

Getting the hint, Will turned away from her as she stood and pulled her trousers and shirt on her lithe form. Buckling her belt, she smiled at him. "Thankyou, William." He turned back around with a glint in his eye. What she didn't know was that there was a rather shiny vase on the dresser next to the bed. He'd just happened to glance over at it and notice her reflection was in it.

Biting his lip, he stood up, holding the sheet to his waist as he motioned for her to throw his clothes to him. She did so, still oblivious to the vase, and he caught them. He let go of the sheet before Elizabeth turned, causing her to blush vehemently.

With a slight chuckle, he pulled on his clothes and put his hair back in its tie.

Walking around the bed, whilst fixing her hair, and gingerly wrapped her arms around him. Will smiled and set his hands on either side of her waist. "I love you," he muttered into her hair.

She squeezed him tighter and let a tear drip down her face and wet his shoulder. He felt it and pulled her back. "Elizabeth, why are you crying?" The pirate took her face in his hand and wiped the trace of the tear from her cheek.

"What's to happen to you, Will? What's to happen to us?" She looked away from his gaze that was making her uneasy.

He brought her eyes back to his. "I'll protect you, no matter what…" he started, but then his eyes caught the vase again. "The vase!" He said, startling Elizabeth away from her reverie. She narrowed her eyes, confused. "Vase…?"

Will tore away from her and hastened to the dresser to pick up the vase. "Apparently, my love, the Spanish colonel is just as stupid as I thought," he said, a wide-eyed glint coming to his eye.

Elizabeth finally caught on. Placing her hands on her hips, she raised an eyebrow with a small smile. "Will, were you watching me change through that?" She asked, amusement leaking through her voice.

At the lousy pirate's timid blush and sheepish grin, she reddened. "Will, you didn't!" He widened his grin and started towards her. She smacked his arm, totally embarrassed. She hid her face in his neck. "It's alright, love. I couldn't see that much," he tried to reason with her.

She shook her head. "That's not it…I mean, that's a lousy, rotten thing for you to do, not to mention just like a man…"

"Pirate," he said simply.

With an amused smile, she kissed his cheek. "Why would Corday do this Will? That's what I was upset about. He helped us so much, and then you reason that he betrayed us." She shook her head numbly. "I don't understand this incredibly confusing fiasco. Who can I trust? Who's left for me?" She turned away from him, looking around the room.

They heard footsteps coming towards the door. "No!" She said, shortly. Her eyes widened as they came closer. Will took Elizabeth's arm and dragged her behind the door. She was about to say something but Will placed his hand over her mouth quickly.

"You can trust me," was all he said as the door opened.

"Senor and senorita…" the guard started as he strutted in with a smirk upon his face. Will leashed out and broke the vase on the now unconscious man's head.

"That was what the vase was for?" Elizabeth asked, pointing at the man on the floor. "Yes," he said simply, as he pulled her out of the door and stepped over his body.

They ran to where Will figured Jack and Ana Maria were held. He started trying to open the door. When he couldn't, he looked around and pushed Elizabeth back to the wall. "Stand back," he said, quietly.

After prepping himself, quickly, Will ran straight at the door and exploded straight through. "Ow," he muttered, clutching his arm. "Jack, Ana…c'mon!"

Both Jack and Ana Maria looked at each other and started after Will, who grabbed Elizabeth's hand with his good arm. They tore down the corridor, and then down some steps.

"Where are our horses, mate?" Jack asked, quickly.

"I don't know, but we'll find them," he said determinedly.

A hand shot out and grabbed Elizabeth away from her friends and lover. "Will!" She yelled, before a hand was placed over her mouth.

"No! Elizabeth!" He started towards her when another three men tackled him to the floor and hit him across the face repeatedly. Jack and Ana Maria were apprehended as all prisoners yelled out their fury.

Will felt the blood drip down from his nose to his mouth. He looked up, dazed, to see Elizabeth struggling in a man's grip. It was the colonel. "Get your hands off of her!" He roared, trying to get at Gutierrez.

"No, senor…I'm sorry, I can't do that." The Spanish man smirked, running his hands through Elizabeth's hair as she whimpered.

"Don't touch her!" Will was shaking in fury.

"Why, Mr. Turner…isn't it better a colonel touch a social beauty rather than a pirate? Oh, but I almost forgot…she's already been stripped of her innocence by a pirate, isn't that right boy?" He grinned at the intense fury Will fought with. "You see that?" He whispered into Elizabeth's ear as she watched Will fight to get to her. "A pirate, through and through. What did you get yourself into, bella?"

Will stopped fighting and sagged to the ground. The navy men who had captured them all started mercilessly torturing them, hitting Jack and Will everywhere they could think of, before a loud voice cut through.

"Stop it!"

Everyone stopped and looked around. Jack's eyes narrowed, then opened wide as he saw who it was. "Corday! Jauques, help us outa this, mate!" Jack said, grinning.

The Frenchman strutted to where Jack was and stood in front of him. "The infamous Captain Jack Sparrow right in front of me, and I barely, just barely, let him get away." He slapped Jack across the face lightly and laughed. "Colonel Gutierrez was working with me, Jack. These men were a great help to me."

Then he caught sight of Will. "And once again, young pirate, you were wrong…on so many levels about me, about the Straight, and about the Spanish. You can't seem to keep anything…Straight!" He laughed at his own joke, as the henchmen laughed with him out of habit. Jack smirked ruefully.

Will looked at him in rage. "I knew it. I knew you couldn't be trusted!" He fought against the three men holding him again.

"Is that why you are so angry? You were right and nobody believed you? Aw, you poor boy." He smacked Will across the face hard, causing Will to jerk back. Corday turned around and looked at Elizabeth, his mouth almost watering.

She recoiled in fear as he came closer. "You lost yourself to him, no?" He asked, pointing at Will. "Don't you dare speak about such things in my presence, you traitorous, slithering, beastly, fake excuse for a man!" Elizabeth grinded out between her teeth.

He just chuckled, a greedy glint coming to his eye. Then he turned to everyone else.

"Sparrow, what made you think the British colonies in Gibraltar would even care about one pirate ship crossing the Straight? You are all horrible excuses for pirates, especially you, boy." He rounded on Will, who had gone numb by now. "You thought you had everything figured out, but you fell right into my trap. You and your maps and gadgets…a real adventurer aren't you?" He laughed mercilessly at Will, leaning closer. "And you swore on your life to protect this fine young lady, didn't you? I know your type. You promise yourself to a woman like this, and then you're gone."

"I'd never leave her!" Will interrupted, bellowing at the man he seethed in anger at.

Jauques bristled at the interruption. "What kind of man are you, if even that…?"

"A real man," Elizabeth answered, trying to escape Gutierrez's hold on her arms.

Corday chuckled. "A real man, you say? And I suppose you are speaking by experience, aren't you?" At Elizabeth's vivid blush and anger, he walked up to her and ran a finger down her cheek. "You are beautiful when you're angry."

Ana Maria roared and tried to break free. "Touch her again and I'll kick yeh where your father forgot ter bless yeh!" She screamed. Jack flinched. "Oh, bad idea Ana, good one, but bad idea," he mumbled, with a small smirk.

The man turned slowly on his heel and walked to her. "Ana Maria…be a woman for a change."

"Why don't you try being a man for a change, yeh fairy!" Ana barked, raising her eyebrows challengingly.

"Ah, once again…good idea, Ana Maria, my pet." He smiled maliciously and strode right up to Elizabeth, taking her face in his hands and kissing her. She fought as hard as she could against him, before he pulled away. She reached up and hit him across the face quickly, before being subdued again by Gutierrez.

"How do you like me now?" He asked, seeing Will almost exploding with rage. They had to practically pin him to the ground with four men to get him to stop thrashing about, he was so angry.

"You're not a man, you're a PIG!" Elizabeth screamed, tears running down her face in anger.

Will finally stopped, his energy nearly gone, and laid his head down in the dirt.

"Take them all to a cell and lock them in there, I'll be back for the pretty one." The man waved them off with one last longing look at Elizabeth as she was dragged away. He'd have her, he made up his mind.

They were thrown into the cells in a real dungeon now, so as to not let them escape. Will just lied there when he was thrown in, not moving. Elizabeth was thrown in after him and landed on top of the young man. Jack and Ana were each pushed in as the cell door was closed loudly and locked. The men taunted them in Spanish for awhile before strutting out of the dungeon.

Will turned over and took Elizabeth's arm in his hand. "You alright?" He breathed. At her livid nod, he smiled partially, wrapping his arms around her. She pulled out of his arms quickly and sat up, wrapping her own arms about herself. Will followed suit and sat up. He reached out a hand to touch her arm, but she moved further away from him.

Confused, he looked at Ana Maria and Jack, furtively. At both their shrugs, he looked back to the young woman before him. "Elizabeth…?" He tried inching closer. "What's wrong?"

"Will, what was that letter about? Tell me about the letter," she interrupted, not looking at him. "I'm not postponing it any longer. Just tell me now." He sat back down, closing his eyes painfully. "Alright," he murmured.

Jack and Ana knew better and just sat next to each other, silently watching them.

Elizabeth turned around and stayed there, waiting for him. "Why do you need to know now, Elizabeth?" She shook her head that meant it didn't matter. "There's no reason, other than I need to know."

At Will's nod, her thoughts drifted.

"And you swore on your life to protect this fine young lady, didn't you? I know your type. You promise yourself to a woman like this, and then you're gone."

"I'd never leave her!" Will interrupted, bellowing at the man he seethed in anger at.

What about the woman in that letter? Had Will promised himself to her and say he'd never leave her? Apparently, he had… for he was here now, sitting in a cell with Elizabeth, after having made love to her the night before. Of course, Elizabeth knew she could trust Will…she just had to be sure.

"The letter. That woman…"

"Kateri." Elizabeth said, watching him.

"Yes, Kateri Larkin…she was a woman who had boarded on the Pearl when I was seventeen or eighteen. I met her at the Faithful Bride in Tortuga." He paused, looking at Jack who nodded soothingly at him. With a deep breath, he continued. "She—she thought I was my father, Bootstrap Bill Turner. I've been told I look quite like him. Kateri thought I was him and had confronted me, yelling at me and hitting me. I didn't know what to do, so I grabbed her arms and asked her what was going on. That's when she realized I wasn't my father. I told her my name, and she seemed heartbroken at first, but smiled still. We spoke for awhile and finally I invited her to stay with us on the Black Pearl.

"She was a great woman, always caring, she worked hard and never complained. She'd started treating me as a son the few months she was there. I asked about my father almost every night, but she'd never tell me anything. I was certain she knew him though. Positively certain." He shook his head ruefully and looked at Jack again.

"Keep goin' boy…I've got yer back, mate," Jack said, winking at him. With a nod, Will continued.

"Then, one day, she was gone. Completely gone and nobody knew where she'd gone off to. Gibbs handed me a note that had her handwriting on it, and told me it was about her and also about my father. Years and years went by, and I'd always go into the library and take out the note to read it, but I could never bring myself to do it. I don't know why, maybe I was scared of what would be in there." A tear rolled down his cheek, as he reached up and wiped it away quickly.

Elizabeth started moving closer to him, for her own comfort more than his.

"What did the letter say, William? I only read the first parts and that was it, but I know you finished it. What did it say?" She leaned a bit closer as he looked down, his eyes shut tighter than she thought even possible.

With a shaky sigh, he opened his eyes to reveal the tears clouding his vision. Elizabeth's heart broke to see him like this, but she stayed sitting there, waiting for him.

"She gave me information about my father. She had been in love with him, they were lovers. She said he had been with her for all that time, but she knew all he thought about was my mother. So she left him, knowing he'd never love her like he did my mother. And she told me how my father died. He was killed in battle with a Spanish warship. He was shot in the chest by a captain named Gutierrez, killed instantly.

"She's dead now. Most likely by her own hand. She said she couldn't go on, knowing she'd caused my father's death. She loved him. She had sent him to a port where she knew he could be killed, and when he was, she blamed herself. And now, she'd dead, I'm sure. If she didn't kill herself, the guilt of my father's death did it."

He turned his head away, tucking his knees up beneath him as he leaned against the wall, away from everyone, and let the tears flow.

Elizabeth's heart shattered at the sound of his sobs. She scooted over to him and draped her arms around him. "Will, love. Look at me," she said softly, lifting his face to hers. "Did you love her?"

He nodded. "She was like a mother to me, a great friend," he said, softly. Elizabeth rested her head atop his and squeezed him to her. "I'm sorry, I needed to know."

"S'alright," he whispered, looking into her eyes, his tears gone for now as he was warmed beyond his control by her almond-colored eyes. "I understand." He moved to lay down, setting his head on her lap as she smoothed his hair back.

He smiled and turned his head, nuzzling against her stomach, missing the wide grin that had plastered itself on Jack's face.

Elizabeth raised her eyebrow. "What?" She asked him, still stroking Will's forehead with light fingertips. The pirate turned his head in her lap and looked at Jack.

"So, yeh two 'ad quite the night, did yeh?" He asked, his grin turning into a smirk. It stopped though when Ana Maria rolled her eyes and elbowed him in the side.

"Ow, love! Wot was 'at fer!" He rubbed his side gingerly, looking at the blushing pair incredulously.

"Fer bein' a cad," she said simply, smiling at the lovers.

"I will ask you one more time…where is my daughter, Commodore?" Weatherby Swann paced in front of Norrington on the Dauntless. They were in the Captain's quarters, discussing their plan of action.

"I am not quite sure of that, sir…but I can assure you that we will find her and when we do, Turner and his captain and crew shall hang." He sat down, fixing his pompous wig underneath his hat.

"Where could they be, James?" The older man asked, looking much older than he was as he rubbed his forehead gingerly. "If anything happens to her—she's my daughter, the only part of Emma I have left," he sighed.

Norrington stood and walked to him. "We have good news, Weatherby. I told you. They're somewhere near Gibraltar. Jackson sent word to me the other day."

"I know, that's what you've said, but what if we cannot reach it in time…?"

"We will. And those pirates shall hang, as I said before. When we get our hands on them, they'll wish they hadn't messed with the Royal navy of Port Royal." He gritted his teeth. He'd make Turner pay for stealing Elizabeth Swann away from him if it was the last thing he did.

"Where are we now, Commodore?" The governor asked, as they sailed smoothly through the water.

"Just outside of the Caribbean, but we're making good time."

"Wonderful, full speed ahead. They shall not have her," Swann said, slamming his hand down on the table. He'd be damned if any pirates got their hands on her while he was still alive.

Elizabeth sat in a chair, looking at Corday angrily. "Would you like some wine, mademoiselle? It'll sooth your nerves for later," he said with a disgusting grin.

"Don't even waste your strength pouring me any. I'll not have it." She looked down at the table angrily.

"There's no sense in fighting, Elizabeth. I'm a man of power, and I always get what I want. If I want you, nothing can stop me." He smirked at her. "Not even your pirate lover, the boy who thinks he knows all." He chuckled, drinking some wine.

"It's a pity I wont be the first to have you, though. It would be much better that way, but I can't change that now. I'll have to compare my experience with your Turner…see how it was for him, maybe…" He looked at her hungrily.

"You'll not have me!" She yelled, standing up and throwing the chair at him. He laughed, uproariously, watching Elizabeth as she tried to get away from him. "There's no way out. So you might as well calm down and let me do what I want with you. There will be no stopping me, Elizabeth." Jauques set down his glass and started towards her.

"No! I'm…I'm hungry!" She said. He shook his head, smirking again.

"Do you think I'm as stupid as those men out there?" He asked, holding up his hands in a shrug. "I'm not falling for that."

He got up closer to her, as she had backed herself into a wall. The Frenchman leaned over and pushed a strand of hair away from her face. "How could you let a pirate have his way with you, my sweet…with his rough hands, not nearly as smooth as mine…"

"I love him," she said, trying to move away from him.

"Do not joke with yourself, Elizabeth. You let him put his hands all over you, and you wont give me the time of day. Why? What does he have that I don't?" He asked, leaning closer, Elizabeth feeling his breath on her neck as she whimpered.

"A heart made of gold. You haven't got anything Will has. Get off of me!" She yelled, shoving him away from her as she made a break for the door. He grabbed her wrist, causing her to yell out in pain as he tore her back to him.

"You'll not get away from me that easily. I will have you!" He kissed her lips savagely and started moving his hands down her sides. She cried out, fighting against him as hard as she could.

"Will!" She screamed, hoarsely. "Will! Help!"

"He'll not help you now…he can hear you, but help, he cannot," he whispered into her ear. She tore at his arms, scratching and kicking, trying to get away.

She would not let him win. "GET AWAY!" She screamed, shrilly.

A loud bang was heard as Corday's eyes shot open wide. Elizabeth's eyes cleared from the tears as she watched him sink to the ground, dead.

She looked up to see Will standing there, an enraged look in his eyes, a smoking pistol held up still in his hand. He looked at it, numbly, before Jack ran in the room around him and grabbed Elizabeth's hand. "C'mon love, we have to go. Will! Let's go, mate!" Jack yelled, as he pulled Elizabeth out behind him.

Will stood still, pistol still held high, staring at Jauques Corday's now dead body. He pulled his arm in and sheathed the pistol in his belt before turning with one last look at the traitor and tearing away after Jack, Ana, and Elizabeth.

"Will, where the 'ell you been?" Jack asked, as Will ran up behind them. They were taking a rest in a secluded alley way, bent over, hands on knees.

"Right behind you," he said, taking a shaken Elizabeth into his arms and kissing her forehead. "You alright?" He asked. She nodded, numbly and dove back into his arms. They heard the sounds of men's boots coming up behind them.

"Let's go!" Jack barked, pulling Ana along as Will and Elizabeth followed.

"Where to Turner?" Jack panted as they ran.

"We need a boat," Will stated, pulling Elizabeth closer. "We'll go around the bend until we get to Algiers!" Jack merely nodded as he saw the dock looming in the distance. "There it is, mate!"

He sped his party up as the men chased after them. Elizabeth turned to look over her shoulder and saw them pretty far away, but gaining. "They're coming," Ana Maria barked.

Jack was relieved to see that there was only one boat and no way for them to follow by sea unless they took out their wimpy little wooden rowboats. With a smirk, he ran up to a rowboat and started pushing it into the water. "Will, 'elp me out, man!" He said loudly.

Will let go of Elizabeth's hand as he helped his captain push the rowboat into the water. "Liz hurry! Get in!" He lifted her in as Ana Maria crashed into it, followed by Jack. Will grabbed the oars and started rowing them as fast as he could to the ship.

Jack noticed that it was much smaller than the Pearl and also less obvious.

As they reached it, Will threw the oars to the bottom of the boat and helped Elizabeth climb up the ropes of the ship, who was followed closely by Ana Maria.

All of a sudden bullets started flying past them into the hull of the ship.

"Damnit," Jack yelled, throwing himself over the side of the railing to safety. "Get down ladies!" He yelled.

"Will!" Elizabeth screamed. He'd be shot if he didn't come up soon. Jack had already started sailing the ship away, so Will jumped as far as he could and held onto the railing. "Help him!" Elizabeth yelled, grabbing his arms as he swung. She and Ana Maria both successfully helped pull him up as a bullet whizzed by and grazed Will's arm. "Ah!" He yelled, as he landed on deck. Sitting up, he felt the small gash on his arm.

"Will, ye alrigh' mate?" Jack asked from the helm. Bullets were still shooting past them, so everybody was crouched down. Will nodded and grabbed a sheet that rested on the deck. He tore it and started dabbing at his wound.

Ana looked over at Elizabeth. "You still in one piece, lass?" She asked, a small sympathetic smile. "Yes, thanks to Will. How'd it happen?"

"Will got an idea that had somfin' ter do wif a vase, I dunno." Elizabeth let out a small smile. "A vase, huh?"

"Yep, and then he grabbed some straw and threw it at the fella who was there, givin' Jack enough time ter grab the keys from the oaf's belt. Will got smacked a good'un, but Jack had the keys, hidden behind 'is back.

"Then the feller who was 'sposed ter be watchin' us strolled away ter do 'is business and Jack unlocked the cell door. We grabbed out effects 'n I hit the big'un on the head, knockin' him unconscious. We ran up to where we could 'ear you screamin'…but Will 'ere and 'is rage sped right past us and tore around the corner.

"Two seconds later, Jack 'n I 'eard a loud gunshot and saw 'im standin' there wif a smokin' gun." She shrugged, tying Will's bandage securely. "There ye are, mate."

Will mumbled his thanks and leaned back against the wall of the ship. He closed his eyes, breathing hard, still clutching his now bandaged arm. Jauques Corday's body was lying in that room, no life whatsoever in it, because of the gun sheathed in Will's belt at this moment.

Will opened his eyes and looked down at the gun. Powder was around the rim of the barrel, he noticed. When he looked up, he saw Elizabeth on the other side of the small ship, looking at him with no expression. She'd seen him just kill a man.

"What will she think of me now?" He thought to himself, standing up slowly and crossing to Jack's side. "I'll fix the sails," he muttered, climbing up to where the sails were flapping about.

As he tied them down, he looked to Elizabeth with a secretive glance. She looked almost numb, with a blanket wrapped around her shoulders as Ana Maria comforted her. "What has this done to her?" He thought to himself. As he looked forward, he saw the sun just setting, thinking of what lied ahead.

(A/N:) I DID IT! I DID IT! (humble applause)

mz-turner: This is for you, Hali. All of this! FOR YOU! I spent ALL Friday writing the WHOLE chapter so that you could read it! >. I know, I love you! Whee! Even though you called me gay...HAHAHAHAHAAHA! JUST KIDDING! And, look at me, Hali. I'M KAREN! WILLIZ! I'd NEVER kill Will and make Elizabeth marry the Commodore. Are you INSANE! O.O I'm the LAST person who'd do that! And I love you too! (wink) Bye Hali!

Wills-lost-treasures: I updated! Here you go! Teeheezers! Thanks for the review!

Johnny'shumiliatedgrape: (sniff) I want a bijillion dollars. (sniff) Hahahahaha! If Jack and Ana heard that...hmmm, I wonder. (images) AH! (smacks head) GET THEM OUT! GET THE IMAGES OUT! That would be Jack. Heehee!

And of course, thanks to Araminta Ditch, my home girl. She's the bestest beta EVER and I love her to death! Stay cool chica and I LURVE you like a sister! (hug)

Well, I believe that's it then. You guys need to come back though. I'm trying to get myA/N written faster because my family is like, "AAAAH! TORNADO!" and I'm laughing at them all. My Dad's seriously running by yelling, "KAREN! GET THE WATER BOTTLES AND GRANOLA BARS!" I'm just sitting here, like "You guys need to take a chill pill." And Mom turns around and goes, "I DO NOT NEED A CHILL PILL! (twitch twitch)"... O.o

See you all later!
