Chapter (5): Sailing away

Shippo bounded ahead of Sango and Miroku, headed to the well. It had been a full day since Inuyasha had left, and they had set out this morning to see if he'd come back with Kagome yet. He dashed ahead, then pulled up short as he realized there were others in the clearing.

Jaken was staring dejectedly into the well, leaning heavily on the staff of heads. He was so absorbed in watching to see if there was any sign of his master, he completely missed Shippo racing into the clearing. The little kitsune stopped dead in his tracks as he caught sight of the wrinkly green toad perched on the well, and stared.

Rin brought Jaken back to reality as she caught his sleeve and asked Shippo, in the most forlorn voice imaginable, if he knew when Sesshoumaru-sama was coming back.

Miroku and Sango, with Kirara trotting alongside entered the clearing just as Jaken, startled, turned too quickly, and fell in the well. Hard.

Sango blinked, and went over to where Rin was standing beside the rim, watching Jaken as he fell down, bouncing off the sides like an extremely old rubber ball that was cracked, but could till bounce. (Even if rubber didn't make such interesting noises of outrage/threats/OUCH)

"Does the pretty lady know when Sesshoumaru -sama is coming back?" Asked Rin, her face hopeful. She looked to where Sango was standing, features wide open and written with eagerness.

"Sesshoumaru?" Miroku glanced away from Jaken's sprawled form at the bottom of the well, voice anxious. "He's not here, is he?"

"No, Sesshoumaru-sama isn't here. He went down there" Rin pointing solemnly to the well. "He went down and disappeared and left Rin all alone with Jaken." She looked lost, suddenly in a vast and empty world, without the large form of the dog Taiyoukai filling her horizons.

Sango and Miroku stared in horror at the well.


Kagome shifted on the roof, watching as night came on, bringing mist into the harbor with it. She looked over at Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha, both glaring across the roof at one another and sighed. At that reflected glaring had given her a headache. Where was Tylenol when you needed it? She finally got up and walked over to the stairs leading to the street. She didn't care if they protested, she had to get away for a minute or two.

Inuyasha looked over at her, and asked loudly "Where do you think you're going?"

"Inuyasha, I've been sitting-crash-um…sorry…about that…but I've been up here all day, watching you two glaring, and I need a break. Too much iced tea and you two with your staring contest is a bad combination."

Inuyasha slowly picked himself off the roof and didn't say anything as Kagome went down the stairs to the street. Sesshoumaru just sat on his side of the roof and smirked.

He might have a 'down' necklace, but Inuyasha had his own. And, he was amused to note, was thoroughly wound around Kagome's fingers.

Fat chance of him ever acting so stupid…


Kagome went down the stairs on the outside of the building and turned, keeping an eye out for any redcoats. She hadn't seen any from her perch on the roof for some time now, but there was no sense in taking chances.

She wandered around the small square for a while, looking at the 16th century town with interest, before walking past a blacksmith shop. She stuck her head in the window briefly, never having seen a blacksmiths shop before and watched as the figure silhouetted against the forge pounded away on a white hot rod of iron.

He set down the hammer and looked up, wiping his hands on a rag, before turning to where she was framed in the window. His eyes widened as he took in her strange dress, and he had just time enough to say "Oh no, not another pirate!" before Kagome realized her mistake and ran.

'Another pirate?' wondered Kagome 'He must have seen Jack! I hope he's ok…'

She ran past the market, people staring as she raced by them, and finally ended up beside a large house. Momentarily, something caught at her senses, feeling very similar to this afternoon.

She stopped for breath, hidden just inside the gateway, wondering for a split instant where that feeling had come from, when shots rang out over the harbor, echoing weirdly in the mist that had crept in.


The prisoners in the next door cell sat and whistled, waving a bone to the dog that had the keys in its jaws. "Come here, boy. Want a nice juicy bone? Come here. Come on!" Urged one of the tattered scarecrows holding out the treat.

Jack sat in his corner and sighed "You can keep doing that forever, the dog is never going to move."

"Oh, excuse us if we haven't resigned ourselves to the gallows just yet!" The prisoner glared up at Jack, before going back to begging.


Estrella, Elisabeth's maid, turned down the covers as Elisabeth lay under the sheets. She placed a bedpan under the comforter, and smoothed it down. "There you go, Miss. It was a difficult day for you, I'm sure."

Elizabeth looked over in her direction, "I suspected Commodore Norrington would propose but I must admit, I wasn't entirely prepared for it." That prospect was enough to terrify anyone…

Estrella appeared taken aback a little "Well, I meant you being threatened by those pirates. Sounds terrifying!"

Elizabeth hesitated a moment, trying to recall the docks. "…Oh, yes, it was terrifying."

"But the Commodore proposed! Fancy that. Now, that's a smart match, Miss, if it's not too bold to say." The maid smiled warmly. There was a perfect mix of a match, if ever she saw one!

"It is a smart match. He's a fine man; he's what any woman should dream of marrying." Elizabeth replied noncommittally.

Estrella's voice grew sly, as she probed further, emboldened by the response to her advice "Well, that Will Turner, he's a fine man, too."

Elizabeth looked askance. "That is too bold."

"Well, begging your pardon, Miss. It was not my place." Estrella seemed miffed, and left.


Will hammered at the sword he had been interrupted in, pausing again as a chill breeze swept through. The iron flickered, cooling past the point at which it could be worked.

He sighed, and set down the work. It was clear he would not get anything more done tonight.

He peered out the window, thinking of the pirate girl who'd looked in on him, and then closed the shutters. It was very hard to concentrate today for some reason.


Governor Swann walked beside Norrington on the top of the fort wall, talking as he went to fill the dead air. "Has my daughter given you an answer yet?"

Norrington seemed a trifle disappointed. "No, she hasn't."

Governor Swann seemed faintly disappointed as well, but consoled himself with thoughts of the dock. "Well, she has had a very trying day." He looked out at the harbor "Ghastly weather, don't you think?"

Governor Swann cocked his head, listening to a faint whistling roar "What's that?"

Norrington's eyes widened, as he realized what it was. "Cannon fire!" He pushed the governor away from the nearest explosion. Norrington took a split second to see, analyze, and react to the situation at hand.

"Return fire!"


Jack jumped to his feet and peered out the window as the guns resounded inside his cell. "I know those guns! It's the Pearl." He said, half to himself.

A prisoner in the next cell clutched at the bars, whispering nervously. "The Black Pearl? I've heard stories. She's been preying on ships and settlements for near ten years. Never leaves any survivors."

Jack looked away from the window and gave a lopsided smile. "No survivors? Then where do the stories come from, I wonder?"


"What's that?" asked Inuyasha, after his ears had stopped ringing. Whatever it was loud!

"No idea" Sesshoumaru looked dazed, enough that he answered Inuyasha without thinking. His ears felt numb, as though everything had to travel through wool to reach them. He wrinkled his nose slightly as a wall of overwhelming scents, dozens of them, rushed in. Gunpowder, and corpses. It was almost like a steel cage, trapping him inside with the many different ropes of air born decay.

Inuyasha looked over the side of the building, and caught sight and smell of a rotten figure coming up the street, waving a sword and intent on killing the townswoman he was after.

Inuyasha realized, at the same time Sesshoumaru did, that Kagome was out there, in the middle of a battle.

"Oh shit!" Inuyasha jumped down from the roofs and landed in front of a woman, who screamed and tried to strike him.

Inuyasha flew past her, knocking over the pirate who's been chasing the hysterical woman and drawing Tetsuseiga as he went, searching franticly for Kagome.

Sesshoumaru sighed, and dashed after him, nonchalantly slicing the undead pirate clean in half as he went. The pirate collapsed just as Sesshoumaru caught up with Inuyasha, and then hesitated.

Why was he looking for the one person he should avoid, seeing as she could 'down' him? And why was he not killing Inuyasha again…?

Oh yes, he'd promised not to… Besides, he reasoned, he needed both Inuyasha and Kagome, however irritating, to get back to the Western lands, and Rin. He'd do anything to get back to Rin. She must be worried sick, and frightened…

If Jaken didn't watch her properly, he would be very sorry when Sesshoumaru returned.

Both youkai ran down the street, side by side, twin blurs of red and white, occasionally cutting through the invading pirates in their way, and once, avoiding a hatchet. Neither could find her scent mixed in with all the others, and when they had, in a square, she'd walked everywhere in it, leaving no direction for them to follow.

Inuyasha could have screamed in desperation.


Will ran out of the shop, carrying a hatchet and a sword, ready to use their twin sharp edges on any pirate that moved. He fought off a pirate menacing a woman, leering at her as she screamed. He slashed him across the back, and the woman took the opportunity to slam a frying pan down on the pirates head with bone shattering force.

Will grinned at her, then blinked as a white and red blur sped by. He reflexively threw his hatchet at it, missing as….whatever it was…sped away. Will frowned, puzzled. Nothing could move like that!

He retrieved his hatchet from the wall, where it was quivering in place, and kept on fighting, intent on the surging battle.


Norrington shouted orders to the soldiers along the walls. "Sight the muzzle flash!"

"Aim for the flashes!"

"I need a full strike, fore and aft! Let these demons bite at this!"

Cannons obediently spat fire towards the Black Pearl.

Norrington turned to the governor cowering behind him. "Governor, barricade yourself in my office. That's an order!" The governor nodded dumbly and ran for it.


Kagome looked around, still sensing that same thing, but closer and spread out. She raced towards the house and ducked inside the door, leaning on it and sighing in relief. She didn't want to face the fight outside without a weapon in her hand, and since she'd left her bow behind….discretion was now the better part of valor.

She moved away from the door. Even with her bow, arrows wouldn't do much against guns, and would attract too much unwanted attention to her, in this place where firearms were the only projectiles.

She heard a commotion at the top of the stairs and looked up. A butler shuffled past her hiding spot and the girl, Elisabeth, appeared at the top of the stairs. Kagome frowned, torn between hiding from the girl, and leaping out to stop the butler. The presence she had felt was outside the door, and she did not think it would be wise to invite it in.

"Don't!" cried Elisabeth, just as the butler opened the door, framing a ragged bunch of pirates. Kagome had waited too long and lost her chance to stop him.

Pintel smiled "Hello, chum." He calmly pulled the trigger and shot the butler. Kagome gasped, and Elisabeth screamed.

Pirates! But then why could she sense them, as a miko? They appeared to be nothing but ordinary thugs! Kagome snatched at an umbrella, and stepped out from the shadows, makeshift defense at the ready.

Pirates, spiritually enhanced or not, were not welcome here. (She conveniently overlooked the fact that she was considered to be one in this part of the world)

"Up there! And you two grab her." Pintel jerked his thumb over in Kagome's direction, and two pirates peeled away from the main group, to grin menacingly at Kagome.

"Girl!" Elisabeth ran back up the stairs and slammed the door behind her.

'Hasn't he seen a girl before?' Kagome wondered, before she became totally preoccupied by the two pirates in front of her. Carefully, she summoned the same feeling she had when powering up her arrows, and lifted the umbrella, letting a faint purple fire lick around the edges of her makeshift sword.

Hopefully, it would work…the two in front of her did not feel clean, in a sense. Could she purify them…?

They advanced on Kagome, circling her into a corner. She grinned, and struck, catching one on the shoulder. He sprang back with a yelp, massaging where she'd touched. Something flashed, and Kagome swung out wildly again, missing the second pirate by inches.

That was all the opening the man needed, and he caught her in a gigantic bear hug, pinning her arms to her sides. Kagome twisted, repulsed by the sudden contact with something so blatantly wrong.


Estrella clasped Elisabeth by the shoulders. "Miss Swann, they've come to kidnap you!"

"What?" Elisabeth looked confused.

"You're the Governor's daughter." Estrella explained patiently.

Elizabeth brushed that aside "They haven't seen you. Hide and the first chance you get, run to the fort." She shut the door on Ragetti and Pintel, distracting them. As they came through the door she smashed the bedpan on Pintel's head.

Ragetti dodged the bedpan, and grabbed her wrist. "Gotcha!" Elisabeth set her teeth and emptied out the glowing coals inside the bedpan on his head, sizzling the scanty hair there. "It's hot! You burned me!" He yowled, and let go.

Elisabeth ran.

"Come on!" grated Pintel, following after.

Elizabeth made for the stairs, blinking at the screaming melee below.

The girl from earlier had been cornered, but she was putting up a good fight, flailing about with a…glowing umbrella, kicking and writhing like a snake.

She shook her head, focused on her own escape. Pirates tried to corner her, and she glanced around, trapped

Elisabeth made a break for it as a cannonball smashed in, taking out some of the pirates chasing her. Pintel and Ragetti pursued, but were stopped when a chandelier fell in front, spraying glass shards everywhere and cutting off pursuit for a few crucial seconds.


Kagome caught a brief glimpse of Elisabeth's frightened face above her, and heard a loud crash. She shouted her outrage, and tried to hit another piece of pirates skin with her umbrella, but couldn't get it up in time. The man caught it and disarmed her, wincing as his palm touched the umbrella.

"It burnt me! Witch!"

Kagome glared at him. "Miko, dumbass." Perhaps Inuyasha had been a bad influence…

She swore at the lot of them as they tied her up, hand and foot. "I'll get you for this! Inuyasha's going to cut you to bits! I'll blast you into the next century!"

They ignored her, and dragged Kagome to the boats.


Elizabeth ran into a room, locking the door behind her and spotted a sword handing on the wall. She tried to get it out of its bracket, but the whole thing came off in her hands. She opened the window and hid just as Pintel and Ragetti broke down the door.

"We know you're here, Poppet."

Pintel smiled "Come out… and we promise we won't hurt you." Ragetti looked at Pintel questioningly who only smiled more. "We will find you, Poppet. You've got something of ours, and it calls to us. The gold calls to us."

"Gold calls…" Ragetti echoed him.

Pintel stepped up to the closet, and opened the door. "'Ello, Poppet."

Elisabeth blinked at him, then had a sudden inspiration. "Parley!"

Ragetti looked startled "What?"

Elizabeth went on in a rush. "Parley. I invoke the right of parley. According to the Code of the brethren, set down by the pirates Morgan and Bartholomew, you have to take me to your Captain."

"I know the code." As though she would need to explain the code to a pirate! It didn't mean he would follow the code of course, but he did know it, off by heart.

"If an adversary demands parley you can do them no harm until the parley is complete!"

"To blazes with the code." Ragetti spat.

Pintel disagreed with him. "She wants to be taken to the Captain. And she'll go without a fuss, unlike the other wench. We must honor the Code." He smiled coldly, showing off yellowed teeth that glittered in the lamplight.

Elisabeth looked slightly less sure than she had a minute ago.


Will fought through the streets of Port Royal, face to face with the attacking pirate. Will was pinned to the wall, and he couldn't escape.

"Say goodbye!" The pirate laughed coarsely. He was still laughing when the sign from the shop fell on him.

Will pushed his limp form away with a grunt, freeing his sword from the fallen man. "Goodbye."


"Come on!" Pintel urged Elisabeth, bringing her to the cutter that would take her aboard the black pearl.

Kagome, already dragged on board, glared at him from behind the thick ropes around her hands and feet. Her eyes narrowed. "And you! You're going down, buddy! Inuyasha!" She hoped he or Sesshoumaru could hear her…

Elizabeth ignored her for the moment, and glanced back to shore. She saw Will standing in the street, sword blade flickering in the light of arson. "Will!"

Will looked up and saw Elisabeth, and the pirate girl he'd seen in his window tied up behind her.

"Elizabeth!" He turned, and spotted the same pirate he'd 'killed' before with his hatchet, and cocked his head to the side, confused. He had killed him, right?

The smoking pyromaniac threw a bomb at him, grinning. It fizzled dangerously down, and…didn't go off. Will and the pyro pirate stared at it. Will smiled and shrugged.

Another pirate ran up behind him, pushing Will aside. "Outta my way, scum!" He knocked Will on the head, and the blacksmith swayed, and collapsed to the cobblestone street.


A cannonball boomed through the prisons stone wall, blasting a hole in the cell next to Jack. The prisoners inside cheered, and ran for it, trying to escape in the midst of the fight.

Jack glared at the hole 'Couldn't be just a bit to the left, could it?' He sighed, and picked up the bone lying discarded on the ground. He whistled, and held out the bone enticingly.

"Come on, doggy. It's just you and me now. It's you and ol' Jack . Come on. Come on, good boy. That a good boy, come on! Bit closer, bit closer. That's it, that's it, doggy. Come on you filthy, slimy, mangy cur…." There was a crash from the stairs and the dog, which had been inching closer, turned and ran.

"No, no, no, no, no, I didn't mean it! I didn't..." Jack turned his head as the former prison guard was thrown down the stairs, lying limp at the bottom of the stairs.

"This ain't the armory."

Koehler shrugged, and looked over at the cell. "Well, well, well, look what we have here Twigg – Captain Jack Sparrow."

Twigg spat at Jack "Last time I saw you, you were all alone on a godforsaken island, shrinking into the distance. His fortunes aren't improved much."

"Worry about your own fortunes, gentlemen. The deepest circle of Hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers." Jack spoke in a quiet, dangerously soft voice.

Koehler shot his arm through the bars and grabbed Jack 's throat, his arm becoming half rotten bone and scraps of dank cloth as it entered the moonlight pouring in through the cell window. Jack looked down at it in surprise "So there is a curse. That's interesting."

"You know nothing of Hell." Snarled Koehler, yanking his arm back and leaving with Twigg.

Jack twirled the dogs bone between his fingers "That's very interesting."


Kagome considered how much of a chance of escape she currently had as the rope ladder dropped down from the ship. If she swam for it, they might shoot her. Inuyasha wasn't close, or he'd have rescued her by now. He must have heard all the yelling, if he was within range…but in the confusion of the attack, he might not have. She had no weapons, and no backup. Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be a way out…

Reluctantly, her captors loosed her ropes to permit climbing.

She glared around her balefully, and started up the ladder, Elisabeth close behind.

"I didn't know we was takin' on captives." The Bo' sun eyed the two girls who'd come on board.

"She's invoked the right of parley with Captain Barbossa." Pintel pointing at Elisabeth.

"And we think the others a witch! She had a glowing purple umbrella!"

"I'm a miko, not a witch!" Kagome glared at the large man, feeling faint at the wrongness vibrating in the air over the ship. It was like being in the center of Naraku's shouki, almost…

Elizabeth broke in "I am here to negotiate –" The Bo' sun casually backhanded her.

"You will speak when spoken to. Both of you." He drew back his hand to deliver a similar blow to Kagome, but a man behind him grabbed his wrist.

"And ye will not lay a hand on those under the protection of parley."

"Aye, sir."

"My apologies, Missies." Barbossa stepped forwards, eyeing Kagome. "Miko, you say? And a negotiator…? What an interesting pair." Barbossa smiled slowly. "Proceed with the bargaining."

"Captain Barbossa , I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal."

"There are a lot of long words in there, Miss. We're naught but humble pirates. What is it that you want?"

Elizabeth's eyes narrowed. "I want you to leave and never come back."

Barbossa smirked. "I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means "no.""

Kagome watched as Elizabeth took the medallion around her neck and made as if to let go of it over the side. What did that medallion have to do with the pirates? It must have something to do with them. They felt the same. "Maybe you shouldn't get rid of that…I think it's important. Something's wrong with this crew…" So much hate, blood, and an appetite that could never be sated stained that medallion…

Barbossa raised an eyebrow. "And what makes you say that? That gold is nothing to us." What did she know? Was she really a witch…?

"Very well. I'll drop it." Elisabeth dangled the medallion over the railing, swinging it.

Barbossa shrugged it off again. "I told you, me holds are burstin' with swag. That bit of shine matters to us? Why?"

Elizabeth looked puzzled "It's what you've been searching for! I recognized the ship. I saw it eight years ago on the crossing from England."

"Did ya, now?"

Elizabeth shrugged nonchalantly "Fine. Well, I suppose if it is worthless then there's no point in me keeping it." She dropped it a bit, and the whole crew lunged forward.

Kagome grinned. "Told you it was important!"

"Ah. You have a name, Missy?" Barbossa looked at Elisabeth, and acknowled the Bo 'suns signals.

"Later"

"Elizabeth …Turner. I'm a maid in the Governor's household." Elizabeth paused, then curtsied.

" Miss Turner …?" Barbossa's eyebrows rose again.

"Bootstrap." Whispered the crew excitedly.

"And how does a maid come to own a trinket such as that. Family heirloom, perhaps?"

"I didn't steal it, if that's what you mean." Elizabeth said, looking at him.

"Very well, you hand it over and we'll put your town to our rudder and ne'er return." Smiled Barbossa

Elisabeth handed it over. "Our bargain?" Barbossa walked to the Bo 'sun.

"Still the guns and stow 'em, Signal the men, set the flags and make good to clear port." The Bo 'sun, turned towards Barbossa. "That girl, she knew something."

"Well now…" What to do with her?

Elizabeth ran over to him "Wait! You have to take me to shore. According to the Code of the Order of the Brethren -"

Barbossa cut her off "First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl , Miss Turner."

"At least take her back! She's a pirate!" Elisabeth pointed at Kagome.

"Am not!" Kagome looked indignant, then grimaced. "Oh…wait…I am?" She smiled winningly.

Barbossa chuckled. "She isn't, by her own admission. And we have questions for her…"

The Bo 'sun caught Kagome's arm and pushed her towards Barbossa. He walked down towards the bow of the ship, hurrying towards a group of pirates having trouble with one of the guns.

"You know something of this curse, don't you?" asked Barbossa, eyes narrowed.

"A curse…? That explains a lot, I suppose. Why was that medallion so important? I could tell it was just by the feel, but not how…" She trailed off, hugging herself tightly against the onslaught of feeling, and wishing she'd stayed on that roof. "The medallion does have a lot to do with it, doesn't it?"

Barbossa paused, considering. "Aye. I suppose we'd better not feed you to the sharks then. You can go with Elisabeth to my cabin. You're going to be our insurance, till this is lifted." If the return of all the coins did not work, then perhaps having a witch…miko…on their side would come in useful…

"Good thing you didn't feed me to the sharks, or you'd have a real problem on your hands when Inuyasha gets here!" Kagome tossed back, going towards the cabin, wondering what he meant by 'insurance'…


It was almost morning, and the invaders had long since left. Inuyasha had sheathed his sword, and stood at the shore, looking out at the distant clouds and cursing. His brother stood off to one side, looking bored. Inuyasha paused in his stream of imaginative profanity, and stared out at the water.

"Why'd she leave? I should have been there! I should have been there!" Inuyasha angrily threw a rock out at the waves, tracing the pattern of scents in his mind again. She had been the on the beach, with another girl, and several of the foul pirates, before leaving on a boat. He kicked the sand and turned, hoisting her bag on his back.

"Come on. We're find Jack and get him to sail a ship after her or I'll bash his head in!" Inuyasha frowned. Stupidstupidstupid …He curled his fists so hard the nails pierced his palms. He should never have let her out of sight! Something bad always happened when he did!

Sesshoumaru shrugged slightly and went. He idly wondered how the pirate would be able to help them if his rash half-brother 'bashed his head in' for not helping him. This whole situation was bad…he'd left Rin behind, he'd no idea how he would get back, he had to put up with Inuyasha and the girl, the necklace she controlled, and to top it off his tail had gotten wet!

Inuyasha headed to the jail, racing through the predawn light with Sesshoumaru close behind him. If they hadn't found the pirate last night, he wasn't in the town, and there was no guarantee he'd escaped, so it was worth a check.


More chapters done. This ones pretty long too, I guess. That makes two really long chapters, and one shorter one in the last three reposts. :P I think the longest chapter is about 14 to 15 pages, size 10 Times New Roman font. And the shortest ch is 3 pags. Lots of variation there. I tend to cut things off where it feels right, not when I hit a certain number of pages of writing. :P

Lol. I think this chapter was one of the ones where I really, really wanted to redo everything. I hated the fact I'd written Kagome up as a bit of a wuss, facing the pirates. Originally she didn't put up much of a fight. I think I went a little to far the other direction to compensate, actually…but I'd rather have a too assertive Kagome, rather than one scared of her own shadow, don't you agree?

My homepage 'Dark Gardens', contains a large amount of writing, (original and fanfiction), and an art section. Come visit! (FF .net won't allow underscores to be posted in a ch, so you'll have to visit my profile for the site's link)
