Joanna walks around looking for Jack in hopes that she can find him before the soldiers do, she walks past Will's Blacksmith, but stops because she see's something off. Joanna pulls out her sword and swings it around, pointing it at the man behind the statue.
"Ah I knew you would find me" Jack said putting his sword away and stepping out from behind the statue.
"What are you doing here?" Joanna asked.
Jack parades around her for a brief moment.
"I am in need of a ship, your blasted father has taken the Pearl for his own"
"My father? You tell me he is alive?"
"Aye, he is, cursed and evil as ever"
Joanna shoves him inside the blacksmith shop. "What do you mean cursed?" She asked pointing her sword at him once again.
"Do I have to threaten you as well Chris?" Jack asked readying himself to fight her.
"I think you will find it impossible for me to be intimidated" She smirks at him.
"Ah" Jack said dodging her surprise attack. "Oi! You cheat" Jack yelled bringing his sword around colliding with hers swinging her around.
"I never!" She said smacking him in the butt as she spun around, gracefully falling back into her stance.
"Do you think this wise, girl–crossing blades with a pirate?" Jack asked being distracted by her beauty.
"Do you think it wise to be crossing blades with the daughter of Barbossa?"
Jack attacked again, but she matched all of his moves, maybe even better than himself. Getting a foot hold ahead of her, he steps in blocking her sword behind his back, holding her wrist. Jack leans in and gives her a kiss, she pulls away from him.
"Your a sneaky bastard!" Joanna yelled, whacking him again, but he parried her attack.
"I only took what was mine" Jack says with his quirky smile. "Now come love, we must leave" Jack said grabbing her arm, pulling her towards the door.
A sword flies past his face and lands in the door above the lock.
"What the hell?" Jack was shocked.
Only person alive that knows that move. Joanna thought.
"Will!" Joanna shouted.
Jack lets go of her arm, walks to the door and tries to pull it out but is unsuccessful.
"That is a wonderful trick… except, now you have no weapon" Jack said now ignoring Joanna and placed his focus on Will.
"Will!" Joanna shouted throwing her sword to him.
Will catches her sword and fights Jack, they continue their swordfight jumping onto a cart that sways under them; Will hooks a knife in the irons hanging from Jack's left wrist and throws it up so it is embedded in the beam above, in return Jack hits a loose board which throws Will off the cart; Jack uses his body weight to get the knife out of the wood and falls back on the cart just as Will climbed back on.
Joanna watched her friend and ex lover fight, she couldn't believe he kissed her! But at the same time she didn't want to see him dead. She walked away not baring to see either one of there demises.
Will is thrown up into the rafters and cuts free a heavy sack which vaults Jack up into the rafters as well; they fight, jumping from beam to beam; Jack loses his weapon and falls he grabs the closes thing to him and blinds Will with sand he takes out his pistol while Will protects his eyes ready to shoot. They hear men trying to break the door down.
"Move away" Jack demanded.
"No" Will yelled.
"Please move" Jacked asked again.
"No! I cannot just step aside and let you escape"
"This shot is not meant for you" Jack said cocking his gun.
"And it's not meant for who ever you intend it to be meant for" Joanna said knocking him on the head with a bottle of alcohol.
Jack falls unconscious, Norrington's men break in the door about the same time.
"There he is. Over here" Norrington's men shout.
"Well, I trust you will always remember this as the day that Captain Jack Sparrow almost escaped. Take him away" Norrington said looking over at Will. "Move out"
Once the men were gone. "That was close, are you okay Joanna?" There was no response. "Joanna?" She had just vanished, but in all reality she had just escaped out the window.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Later that night a strange ship was approaching the harbor, blasting its cannons at anything and anyone.
Jack was lying in the jail cell when he heard a familiar sound. "I know those guns" He gets up to look out of his little window. "It's the Pearl" He smiles slightly, remembering why he ever named that ship the Black Pearl, it was because of her, everything was always because of her.
"The Black Pearl?" one of the other prisoners asked.
Jack snaps out of his daydream.
"I've heard stories. She's been preying on ships and settlements for near ten years. Never leaves any survivors"
"No survivors? Then where do the stories come from, I wonder?" He laughs at there stupidity.
The Black Pearl's guns are destroying the battlements, just when everyone thought it couldn't get worse it did, the pirates are now coming ashore in boats. Joanna threw off her dress reviling her under clothing, black pants, a purple blouse with a black corset over top of it, making her bust pop out the top of her shirt, she threw on her pirate boots, grabbed her sword, gun and knife and ran out the door.
She swings her sword at a pirate coming towards her, killing him before he even had a chance to attack. Joanna knew she had to get to Elizabeth before it was to late, she had reached the house but the doors were already blown open.
"Elizabeth?!" Joanna yelled, running through out the house, not being able to find her anywhere.
She runs back outside to the dock and see's the Pearl in the water, knowing her father was there some place, she scans the ship in hopes of a glance of her long lost father, she see's a feathered hat but she doubts it's her father, since it was only Jack who had told her, he was alive.
"Come on!" Pintel shouts at Elizabeth, dragging her to the long boats.
"Elizabeth!" Joanna shouts, slicing the head off a pirate she thinks it could have been a commoner, but she was so enraged her eyes had turned blue, so blue they looked like ice.
Just then a pirate Joanna thought she had killed popped up in front of her, waving at her. Joanna gave him a confused look.
"Outta my way, scum" The pirate knocks Joanna on the head, she faints.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Twigg looks a round. "This ain't the armory"
"Well, well, well, look what we have here Twigg– Captain Jack Sparrow" Koehler said spitting on the ground in front of 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. I hear tell, Barbossa's daughter lives"
Koehler grabs Jack's throat, a skeletal arm appears.
"So there is a curse. That's interesting" Jack said finding it hard to breath.
"She is the least of our worries, Barbossa will kill her without a second thought" Koehler released his neck and walking out.
Jack picks the bone back up. "That's very interesting"
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Joanna wakes up on the streets with a huge lump on the back of her head.
"Elizabeth?!" Will shouts from not far away.
"William?!" Joanna shouts back.
She see's Will running around, looking for Elizabeth, but notices Joanna first.
"Joanna!" Will calls out, running towards her. "Did you see Elizabeth?"
"The pirates got her" Joanna said sadly.
Will looks around in a daze. "What do we do?"
Joanna grabs Will's arm to find Norrington.
"They've taken her. They've taken Elizabeth" Will raged inside even thinking about dirty pirates touching her.
"Aye that be true" Joanna agreed.
"Mr. Murtogg, remove these men"
"Excuse me James, I am in fact a woman"
"We have to hunt them down. We must save her" Will stated being highly stupid.
"Jack Sparrow. He talked about the Black Pearl" Joanna mentioned.
Will's eyes light up "Ask him where it is. Make a deal with him. He could lead us to it"
Norrington rolled his eyes at Will's comment "No…the pirates who invaded this Fort left Sparrow locked in his cell ergo they are not his allies" James faces Governor Swann ignoring Will and Joanna.
Will slams his hatchet into the table. "That's not good enough!"
Norrington pulls the hatchet out of the table. "Mr. Turner, you are not a military man, you are not a sailor. You are a blacksmith and this is not the moment for rash actions. Do not make the mistake of thinking you are the only man here who cares for Elizabeth" He hands him back his hatchet.
"You care not for Elizabeth, only her high position in government, you wish to become Governor one day don't you? To hide from battles you do not wish to fight, I understand now, why you do not want to fight, your afraid" Joanna said seeing right through everything he was hiding.
"Joanna do not forget, you were the one to defend said pirate admitting you were one as well, I can still have you hang" Norrington said in her ear.
Joanna wasn't one to mess with, especially with death, she was the most deadly pirate ever to walk this earth. "If you even try to, every pirate in the Caribbean will come and kill you, promise you that"
"Then you better leave now" Norrington said with a sour look on his face.
