(sorry it's taken me a while to reply to this one too.... :blush:)

(btw, Millie, maybe you should have her run into Will and Elizabeth? Or have her pass by the blacksmith shop and hear them and sneak in or something? Or you could have her wander around until the ruckus dies down and then she could run across Carmon while Carms is trying to free those Norrie sends to the jail... just suggestions. :))


Will glanced over at Elizabeth, not too surprised at the sudden change in her. He had learned by now that whenever class and etiquette could finally be left behind for a short time she took full advantage of it. He smiled and nodded, although he wasn't quite as animated as Elizabeth was. In fact, her comments saddened him slightly because he knew things would never be "like old times again". there was something that had definitely changed over the past months. He felt like he had grown in many ways and he couldn't go back. "Of course I remember," was his response to her. "it feels like yesterday," he said quietly, reflecting to himself. He looked back over at Elizabeth. He loved seeing her almost glow with health and happiness.

______________

(aye, Emma was caught as well... ;) Oooo, we get Oliver in it too?! Goodie goodie! :teehee:)

Emma caught Vari out of the corner of her eye. Even with Jansen's firm and rough grasp and the uncertain fate that lay ahead Emma felt somewhat more comforted knowing Vari was there. However, she wished she could get free for only a moment. She would show this Jansen that she was not the kind of girl he wanted to take lightly. Emma positively fumed inside. Never had she been so man-handled by a brut like this man.

______________

Lotty returned Sam's quick glare, but she knew now was not the time to be quarrelling among themselves. She looked over to Cole as Sam questioned him. Bullets were still whizzing by and she knew it would only be a matter of minutes until these bloody Redcoats would come tramping up the stairs with their little guns. "A back door?!" she stared at Cole, expectantly, when his didn't answer soon enough for her.

Nicolas had been in somewhat of a reflective daze while staring at his friend. He snapped out of his as he heard two women's voices."Yes, yes, there is a backdoor. Carmon, you know where it is. Lead the way and make sure everything's clear and there's no soldiers gaurding that way. We'll have to go down the back stairs." Carmon quickly followed orders and walked back down the hallway. "Now, I'm going to need help carrying him." Cole glanced at Lotty and Sam before quickly bending down to lift his friend up.

"At least these gaudy, upper class mansions have some good points to 'em. They aren't completely a waste of the poor’s money." Lotty muttered as she helped Sam and Cole carry Edward down the hall.

_______________

(yeah, that would work better, I think. :yes: I guess we'll just have to see how it works out... ;) I know... weird. :P

lol, of course. There's always some excuse when it comes to Keyara and Beckett... ;))

Cutler looked over at the officer. "Yes?" he waited for a response. The other man remained in the doorframe. "Lord Beckett, Lieutenant Groves is in need of you opinion on something important on deck." Cutler wondered what it could be now and why the Lieutenant didn't come to him himself. He sighed and nodded and the man quickly left his presence. Lord Beckett sauntered to the door and opened it and stepped out into the pleasant Atlantic air.

(I hope that was good... I couldn't think of any other excuse for why Becky would have to go on deck. :P haha, I've thought of that too, Ara!)

(Thank you PD! You are a lifesaver! :hug: I was completely blanking on ideas.)

Alex rushed through the town, looking for a good place to hide until things calmed down. She sighed and stopped in the street, looking around. She heard footsteps behind her. Instinctively, she dashed into the nearest building. A quick glance at the sign above the door incidacted that it was a blacksmith shop.

Laughing a little to herself, Elizabeth muttered, "It's ironic, isn't it? We used to play at being pirates, and now you are one. And I suppose I am too, but not a proper one. Now that you're teaching me how to swordfight, I'll feel like Captain Swann again." She smirked, remembering their childhood games in which she'd always declared herself captain of the imaginary ship. "Although I suppose technically you should be captain, seeing as you're better at swordplay and fighting than me."

(I saw her not too long ago, I believe...)
Alex jumped when she heard voices. Instinctively, she whipped out her pistol. She inadvertently knocked over a metal rod set against the wall as she was slipping into the shadows.

[ I am só sorry :( ]

Sam followed hastily when Carmon showed them the backdoor. Only a moment before she left the hall she turned and looked back: the Commodore still lay motionless on the floor, the smook was clearing and there was no sign of Vari or Em.
She turned her back at the hall and muttered: "hold on Ed" while she helped to lift Edward.

It was a relief when they left the mansion. Although the air was warm and moist, Sam breathed in deeply. "If ye're lookin' for a place to hide I can help. Closeby is a place I used to stay to escape Redcoats. It's somewhat further down the street."

-----------

James woke up and groggy shook his head. He felt dazed.. and for a moment wondered where he was. Then it all came back to him. Elizabeth...the break-out.. the pirates.

[[Don’t sweat it, Will - we’ll always wait for you. :hug: ]]

Edward’s breathing began to quicken as all thoughts of surviving left his mind. Blinking back tears, he tried to reply, but no words would come out. Instead, he began to cough up small amounts of blood, the coppery taste lingering in his mouth. He clung desperately to Cole’s shirt, feeling small and helpless.

-----------

Vari looked back at Emma to make sure she was all right, despite Oliver’s commands. She tried to smile comfortingly at the other pirate, but deep down a sick feeling was taking hold. This wasn’t going at all like she had planned, and now the gallows might just seal their fates.

Oliver smirked as the high walls of the fort came into view. “Welcome to your new home, ladies.”

-----------

[[Perhaps we could shake things up a little bit… ;-) ]]

As Keyara turned back to survey the deck, a sudden lurch of the Endeavour made her cling to the railing. “What in bloody…” The force of the impact had sent a few of the soldiers to their feet, and were now scrambling to retrieve their hats and weapons. Keyara peered over the port side of the ship, trying to get a better glimpse of what had been causing the commotion.

[[If you don’t like it, I can change it, but I thought that maybe possibly we could have the Kraken show up for a little action or something…? Or it could just be a reef if you want. Whaddya think? :huh: ]]

(don’t worry, everyone, I’m FINALLY back! Even after the stupid computer decided it had detected some problem and had to shut it all down… RIGHT when I was almost done with my reply! :annoyed2: UGH! Anyway, sorry it took me so long…

Millie, you’re welcome! I’m happy I could be of some help. :happy: )

Will smiled and looked back down at their feet for a few minutes, thinking over what she said. “It is ironic,” he looked over at her. “Although I don’t know if we could be seriously thought of as real pirates.” he shrugged. For a few minutes he immersed himself in a reverie about those days gone by. He was brought out of it by her reminiscing about the same fanciful games they used to play as children. He nodded, “and here we are. Almost like it never happened.” he trailed away. “It’s as if it was destiny.” that one sentence escaped his mind and came out as a slight murmur before he knew it.

________________

Carmon quickly pushed open the heavy back door and held it as the others carried Edward out into the warm day.

Cole gently put Edward down for a quick rest. He could just catch a glimpse of what was going on inside before Carmon let the door gently close. He worried about what might’ve happened to the Commodore during that fight. He hoped he wasn’t seriously wounded. ‘How could something like this happen?’ he mentally kicked himself, ‘how could this get so out of control?’ he scowled at himself for being so careless. Now not only was Norrington mad or hurt or worse, but so was Edward. They were both his friends, so he thought. How could he let both of them down in one day? “What?” his sisters desperate voice shook him out of his wandering thoughts. “Hide?” he looked back at the two women. “Yes,” he said in reply to Carmon and Sam, “yes, we need to hide him.” he paused and thought. “and us,” he finally added a tad resentfully.

Lotty was by Edward the whole time the others were talking. "Don't worry, Ed. We'll get ya fixed up," she whispered to him. "perhaps we should be going soon?" she said impatiently to the others. "It is daylight and they are still looking for us."

__________________

Despite Mr. Jansen’s firm hold on her, Emma managed to twist her body in such a way so she could barely catch Vari’s smile. She gave a quick nod of her own in response, but was jerked back by Jansen. One thing Em was thankful for was she didn’t have the time to worry so much about their fate. The biggest thing she had to be worrying about was if her arms would get enough blood circulating to them with Jansen’s iron-like grip. And if she moved at all in any direction other than forward his grip grew even stronger. She wished she could somehow twist herself into a way where she could trip him or something. She glared at the fort as they neared it. However, one thing that brought her some delight was the fact she could tell Jansen wasn’t at all pleased with the performance of the Commodore and his men. there was an almost constant string of muffled muttering and curses that came out of him. 'ha,' she thought to herself, 'at least that bloody Commodore won't get out of this completely blameless. We gave him a good fight and cost 'im something.'

_________________

(Ooo, that would be great! :lol: )

As the ship violently jolted, Lord Beckett barely caught the handles of the great, glass doors leading to the top deck saving himself from a fall. He remained motionless for a few minutes, still griping the door handles and wondering what had happened. He finally took a breath and pushed open the doors. An officer nearly ran into him in his hast to inform the lord of what had happened. The poor officer, still slightly breathless himself, tried to get out what he wanted to say. Meanwhile, Cutler surveyed the upper deck while trying to listen to the other. “It must’ve been a reef,” he finally said to the other man. The officer still stayed by him, looking worried and occasionally throwing sidelong glances towards the water. “Free us.” was Lord Beckett’s one order.

(I love the idea of it being the Kraken, Ara! :-D lots of good action there... *rubs hands together evilly* :teehee:)
