Thank for all the reviews! :) here's the first part.


Engagement Day: William POV

" George, get up. Hurry, it's time!" George had said that he would take a quick rest before we started the attack but it was time and he was still asleep.

" What is it? What going on?" he asked as he sat up. The fog that the Black Pearl brought with it bought us some time and cover but not much. This was definately not the time to be sleeping, we had to hurry.

" We're starting the attack. Come on, you and I have to get to the governor's mansion."

" Calm down boy, I'll be right there! Go! You go on without me, I'll catch up." He said as he all but pushed me through the door of the crew's quarters.

" Fine but don't take too long, we have to work fast!" I said as I ran to catch up with the others.


Getting into the mansion was not as difficult as i thought it would be. I knew there would be a lack of guards, but having just one guarding the entrance to the property was a surprise. He wasn't well trained either, and I easily took him out; but I didn't kill him. I didn't do that unless I had to. The front door was locked and for some reason, I decided to knock instead of breaking the lock with my pistol, the quieter I did this, the more time I had. The butler opened the door, saw me, then tried to close the door on me but I kicked it open again and went in, caught up with him as he ran away and hit him on the back of the head with the gun. He crumbled to the ground. I looked for a place to start, and quickly chose to go into a door right next to a staircase. I went in and saw I had picked the right room. It was full of things, expensive things. But probably every room was full like this one. I thought I heard something as I quietly closed the door behind me. I turned and saw nothing, but I slowly scanned the room again just to be safe, and it was empty. I walked forward to a long table filled with gold ornaments that was against the wall, and set the gun down so i could grab a few gold pieces and stuff them in my bag. Then I moved past the table when I saw the paintings. Some where of places; one full of trees and plants, probably a park. I recognized another, it was of London, but the one that really amazed me was of a woman. She looked around my age, maybe a couple years younger, but she was beautiful. I reached for that painting to take it with me when I started hearing the booming of the Black Pearl's cannons. Everyone would know of the attack now, and it was time to leave. Then I heard a woman's voice. It was stupid, but at first I thought it had been the painting. I knew it wasn't when felt a gun on the back of my head.

"Don't touch that." Her voice was a little shaky, she was scared.

" I said don't touch that!" She ordered me with more ferocity,trying to mask her fear. I of course, didn't obey because I could tell that she wouldn't shoot, she wasn't like the women of Tortuga. Those women were able to do anything and I knew she wasn't.
