Days had slowly passed by on the island. Elizabeth grew worried. Although she warned Jack that it was not going to be easy as last time, she didn't actually believe herself when she said it. Thankfully, Jack's fever had come down quickly, and was now walking about.

Jack inspected his pistol with great care, trying to clear off any grime that was stuck to its elegant designs on the handle. Small drops of sweat crawled down his knitted forehead. Never had there been such a humid day with a scorching sun and its unforgiving rays. Jack abruptly put down his pistol into the sand in annoyance. For the first time in is life, Captain Jack Sparrow was inescapably…bored. He placed his hands behind himself, locked his elbows and leaned back his head.

"Lizzie!" He said loudly. Elizabeth was currently peeling a series of mangos that they would eat sometime soon.

"What is it Jack, can't you see that I am busy?"

"There is absolutely nothing to do on this blasted island." Jack complained.

Elizabeth laughed mockingly. "Jack Sparrow, I am not your mother. Stop acting like helpless small child and find something to do!"

Jack grinned sarcastically. "Fine then," he quickly got up without using his hands for support, "perhaps I'll look around and see if I can find anything that can get us off this Godforsaken spit of land." Jack made a move to bend down and place his pistol in his belt once more, but a bruising pain made him hesitate instantly. Jack grunted loudly and cursed under his breath.

"Jack you're not going anywhere in your state." Elizabeth stated while getting up to help him. She held onto both of Jack's arms to help him up. She blushed as she felt his strong muscles tighten with hre grip.

"I thought you weren't my mother," he frowned, "besides, I'm almost sure that it was that bloody rum that made me side worse." Great. Now this woman is making me curse rum. He thought.

Elizabeth let go and returned his sarcastic smile and stated, "Why don't you peel the fruit while I go around the forest and try to find something useful."

"Fine by me mum!" Jack laughed. Elizabeth pushed Jack slightly, causing him to lose his balance. She rolled her eyes at him and walked into the Greenland and started to search.

Elizabeth pushed through the thick leaves and followed the path she made for herself over the passed few days. All of a sudden, an abnormally large fly started to annoy her. Too preoccupied with trying the swat the fly away with her arms, she didn't see a series of knotted roots on the ground about where she was walking. Not too soon, Elizabeth tripped and cursed loudly.

Suddenly, she heard a pair of footsteps behind her.

Elizabeth took a quick look back before sprinting up and behind a large tree. She tightly held onto her cutlass once she realized that it obviously wasn't Jack. Still staring at ground where she fell, she listened intently to the drunken laughter coming closer.

"That bloody wench wanted how much?" One man asked and half laughed.

"Much more overpriced then what she gave to me…hiccup…I was done with her anyway, so I just blasted her out the window."

Elizabeth's mouth fell in disgust as louder laughter came near her. She looked behind herself and noticed a bush that was full with leaves. She quickly jumped behind it and watched the men walk away through a small bare spot. She decided to follow the men from a far distance.

Don't tell me there's a port here, and Jack and I have had to fend for ourselves for the past couple of weeks. She complained.

Jack sat quietly on the shore and watched the sun set slowly as he munched on some of the mangos he had finished peeling some time ago. Completely bored out of his mind, he reached over to his jacket and pulled out Will's map and started to fiddle with the drawings and different seas. Should work on finding the Dragon, even though we don't have a ship, or even a crew… Jack sighed loudly in defeat and cursed Beckett's son for taking away his crew and the Pearl.

After some time of searching, Jack started to ponder as to what was taking Elizabeth so long to find food to eat. Probably got herself into some sort of unnerving situation. Jack rolled his eyes slightly and made a move to get up when suddenly he saw Elizabeth emerge from the bushes, running rapidly towards him.

Jack tipped his head to side and shouted "Where have you been love? Doesn't take that long to gather fruit.

Elizabeth stopped running and panted loudly. "Jack… you'll never guess what I've discovered!"

Jack perked up and wished for the one thing he truly needed.

"Rum?"

Elizabeth gave him a cold stare and replied, "No, while I was trying to gather food, I heard some men coming towards my way…," Jack quickly stood up, maneuvering around so that it doesn't affect torso too much, "… and I followed them to where they were going…" Elizabeth huffed and puffed. Jack leaned in closer, waiting for the rest of her interesting story. "Jack… there's thriving pirate city and dock just past these trees behind us."

Jack looked over to the greenery and smiled with his mouth half open.

"Well, we'll need some short of plan won't we? Can't be stayin' on this island forever."

Elizabeth nodded and returned Jack's grin. "Tonight, we're leaving."

Jack was truly happy that Elizabeth had found the port. But he did wonder, why did Beckett's son maroon us here? He knows all of the ports, certainly all the pirate ones. He's playing games with us, or rather…me. Jack pushed his thoughts to the sides as Elizabeth called him to put out the fire.

Mustn't forget that death only leads to revenge.

A/N I know this certain chapter is a little short, but rest asure, I only wanted it to be a short one because I didn't want to reveal too much of my plot. Adventure awaits upon the open seas mates...
