A/N wow sorry this took like a year to update…and literally, but I kinda forgot bout it and I wasn't getting a lot of reviews, but since I can see the hits now ill try again, so heres another chapter although its not as good as I had hoped


Later that night I found myself drinking away in my cabin, finally getting some time to myself. But as soon as I thought I was alone I heard a rather loud knock on my door. I groaned and turned to yell to them but I found James already standing in front of me. "Yes?" I asked growing tired of being questioned.

James sat down on a chair and faced me, "How is it that Jack knew where you were? And he said I had just missed you in Tortuga?"

"He had just given me passage to Tortuga so I could get to me ship."

"Why weren't you on you're ship?"

"Well that is a little more complicated and I'm still tryin to sort it out. But it seems after fightin the navy my crew decided to sail away while I was on the navy's ship, and I managed to escape and row off to the nearest port."

James nodded and was about to ask me another question when Lucas appeared in my door.

"Cap't there's a ship in view of port side, I think its Rackham's" I nodded and followed him on deck. Port side I saw the shape of a ship parallel to us. As I looked closer I nodded, "There's the Mirage, lets bring her around" I said to Lucas

"Aye sir" I watched as the Sea Hawk was turned towards the Mirage, I smile crept on my face as I went to retrieve my extra sword. As I reached my cabin I ran into my brother, again as I was reaching for my sword.

"Where are we going?" he asked stepping in front of me.

I looked up at him and then out my window where I could see shape of the Mirage moving in. "Well right now after someone"

"Who?" I looked closely at him trying to figure out why he was asking this many questions.

"A John Rackham, if ya must know, now excuse me but I have business to attend to." He grabbed my arm to stop me, but I shrugged it off and walked out of my quarters. As I entered into the bright sun I shielded my eyes before checking on our progress with the Mirage's. I smiled as I noticed we were almost in range with the ship. About 10 minutes later we were along side the Mirage and my crew where prepaid to fight, but they waited for my next move.

I glanced at the ship's deck next to me; I could see Rackham and his crew moving close to the edge. I stood my ground waiting for him to make the move to my own ship.

I smiled and he swung over with two other members and walked up to me with his sword drawn.

"Well if it isn't Cursed Jade, where's the captain" he asked looking around the deck

"I am the captain" I stepped forward towards him, holding my sword down on my side.

"Well my apologies captain" He raised his sword, pointing it at my throat. I picked up my own sword and quickly knocked his away from me, "Save it Rackham" He thought for a moment before motioning to his cabin on the Mirage, "Shall we?" He turned in an attempt to go back to his own ship.

But as he turned I put my cutlass to his neck, "No I don't believe we shall" he turned back to me, fire in his eyes as well as mine.

Before I knew it I was wrapped up in my own fight with Rackham and the two crews had found themselves in a similar situation. Ignoring the fighting around me I concentrated on blocking Rackham's moves.

He wasn't a skillful fighter but he had power with each blow, I had to fight hard to block his own sword but found it easy to circle around him and get my own sword in him. I smiled as I found blood on my blade, and a cut within his stomach.

He slowed down even more and as he raised his sword to cut me in half I met him half way knocking his sword to the side of him and giving myself a clear shot. I looked into his eyes and cut him deep in the chest with my sword. His face paled, "That's for Nathan" I spit out as I retracted my sword from his body.

As it fell to the deck I seethed my sword and grabbed a piece of paper out of Rackham's pocket. I looked at the scene around me and watched as Rackham's crew moved back to their own ship.

"Lucas, Rackham has a date with Davy Jones" I said walking back to my own cabin and Lucas dumped the bodies overboard.

Inside my quarters I pulled out the paper I had taken. Undoing it I laid it out on my desk. It was a map of the Caribbean, the location to a treasure Nathan and I had found, one Rackham was after all along.

I hung my head as I thought back to the many events in my past I wished I could change, tears threatened to fall but I shook them away as I heard a knock.

"What" I growled

I got no answer except the opening of my door; I turned to see my brother in the doorway. I rolled my eyes at him, "What is it now?"

He glanced at my desk and the newly acquired paper, "All that for a map?" he asked suspiciously.

"Well I'm a coldhearted pirate right, all I want is some treasure" he raised his eyebrow and I sighed, "So then is Nathan a piece of treasure" he asked

"Depends on you're definition of treasure" I said smiling, as I saw him frown.

"Who's Nathan?"

"Well don't ya just say what's on you're mind" it was my turn to frown as he smirked. This game was starting to frustrate me. "He was no one, now leave my quarters" I said raising my voice to him and pointing to the door like a child would.

He seemed to get the message though as I heard the door slam behind him. I sunk down on my bed as I grabbed a flask of rum. I needed to think on my own, without my brother trying to do it for me, or trying to bring up the past.
