Devina scowled heavily and shook her head.

Jack walked out of the room letting Blackbird follow him. He opened an old creeky door and stepped inside another tavern of some sort. Darkness in that room seemed to only slightly break from the small lantern Jack held in his hand. It wasn't long before Jack sought out a table and placed the lantern on it and set the manuscripts down. His dark eyes lifted and looked at the shadowed Blackbird. "Like I said...one is missin'." His voice breaked the strange silence that was held in the small tavern.

"What 'one' would that be?" Blackbird asked, cocking an eyebrow curiously. "And first of all, maybe we should start with what we know for sure. I'm still unclear on some of the details."

"No no no no no.." Jack closed his eyes and held up a hand to shut Blackbird up. "Don't ye understand...he's done it on purpose..one is missin' and he has either burned it, or hidden it!"

"Exactly. And since we both know how wonderfully cooperative Barbossa can be, let's just waltz into the brig and request that he kindly return our codex so we can kill him. I'm sure he'll go for that."

Jack shook his then stared back into Blackbird's eyes, "No, Blackbird, straighten up and 'elp me think 'ere...." He put a hand to his forehead in frustration.

"Well I can't very well think if I don't know what I'm thinking about," she shot back impatiently. "Since we don't know what we're missing, nor what we're looking for, I suggest we start with what we have. If we figure out what we do know, we'll know what we need to figure out." Absently pushing back a wisp of hair that had fallen down in her face, she started examining the ancient codex. "So far, we know that any being that takes a coin from the Aztec chest becomes cursed. We've also found out that if a single coin is removed after the curse is lifted, any who were previously cursed fall back under it, presumably until that coin is again returned. Because Barbossa was dead when the curse was reinstated, he is more dead than alive and therefore apparently impervious to the mortal effects of the curse such as hunger, while you and the crew still suffer. So, the question is, what's missing? What doesn't fit?"

"Like I said earlier Blackbird.." He wagged his head and wiggled some nervous fingers on the table, "I don't know how many times ye want me to say it.." His eyes titled upwards to look at her while his neck hung low, "There's a manuscript missin' out of this bunch 'ere." He pointed to them.

Blackbird sighed in annoyance. "Yes, Jack, we've established this," she said, speaking slowly and clearly as if she was making sure he understood. "I'm simply trying to-" She stopped short, staring at the palm of his left hand under the table. "Jack..." she began unsurely. "Either a bit of moonlight found its way down here, or we've got another problem on our hands -no pun intended."
((You do know what I'm getting at, yes?))

(~nudges POTR~ Oh do I..)
Jack eyed her strangely and bent his eyebrows forward. "What?" He looked down at his left hand and flipped it over to look at his palm. He lifted it towards his face and stared. Indeed she was right. His mouth fell agape and he held a shocking expression on his face. "Maybe...maybe there's just a hole somewhere..that's-that's letting the moonlight come in." He took the lantern in his other hand then walked briskly over to the other side of the room, which was covered in darkness and getting out of the moons light then looked at his hand again.

Blackbird stood up and went over to him, for once unsure of what to say. "I'm no expert on the curse, Jack," she said, eyeing the hand curiously. "But...it's not supposed to be doing that, aye?"

Will sat with Devina outside the door, trying to listen. "It's no use" he said, now a bit frustrated. "I can't hear a thing"

(Sorry guys, I was having my birthday party last night! Woo!)
"Aye..." His eyes stared at the strange texture on his hand. His thought ran away from him for a moment or two before he blinked and came to. Before Blackbird knew it, Jack grabbed a hold of her sleeve, tore a long skinny piece of it it off and shot to the other side of the room leaving Blackbird in the darkness since he did have the only lantern. He then set it down and started to wrap the cloth that he tore from her tightly around his hand.

((Pippin's back!! How old are ye, Pip? Yer gonna post pics, aye?))
"Hey!" Blackbird exclaimed in surprise, striding after him. "I was using that sleeve! Anyway, won't everyone find it a bit suspicious that you're walking around with a strip of cloth tied around your hand?"
