Jack Sparrow once again slapped the pistol away from his ribs, "Point that somewhere else..." he said simply.
"Now, where did that dastard go?" Of course, this dastard was said Captain Grey.

Meanwhile, Will's wrists were still tied behind his back, but somehow he managed to break to the surface and gasp for air. The water was freezing cold and sent a shiver down into his bones.
He could hear the shouts and orders from ship above. Silently he swam on his back, kicking his legs slowly and quietly toward Grey's ship. Somehow....some way.....he had to save Elizabeth...he would not let Grey have her for a prize.

Grey was getting nervous, time was running out, he must get the crew sailing before the rest of Jack's crew came out of that inn. He was hasty as he got from his own ship to the Pearl.
"Leave the wuss!!" he said of Will, entirely ignoring his promise. "He's probably dead in the bottom of th' sea by now, just get him," he said, extending a dirty finger towards Jack, "aboard the ship NOW!" He waited impatiently, with the meaning look that Claudia and Barry better hustle.

Claudia, of course, pointed the pistol right back at this Jack Sparrow, whom she was beginning to find singularly irritating, and shoved him hastily down the gangplank. "Aye aye, Cap'n."

Jack started to get a bit flustered, "Oio...stop doin' that love!" He turned around and this time whacked the pistol right out of the girl's hand then watched it slide across the deck.
"Hah!" he shouted dead in her face still unaware of what kind of predicament he really was in.

(LOL, Pippin!)
Will had now reached Grey's ship. He had finally wriggled free from the ropes around his wrists....but in the process had burned off most of his skin.
Ignoring the pain from his swollen wrists, Will climbed the rope that held the anchor and onto the ship. Quietly he scurried across the deck, trying not to make a sound. "Elizabeth? Elizabeth?" he whispered to see if she was nearby.

Grey's impatient had reached its max. Walking up behind Barry, he slapped him hard. "Go help Claudia NOW you ba..."
But whatever curse he was going to use on Barry was interrupted by the faint sound of laughter coming from the harbor. Drunken sailors... Jack's crew no doubt.
"Quick!" he whispered hoarsely to Claudia, "knock him out! I'll help you carry him!"
The request was a strange one no doubt, but Grey was beginning to feel anxious.

To her credit, Claudia absorbed this order speedily and gave Jack a good thump on the head with the hilt of her sword. Perhaps it was a slightly harder thump than was strictly needed, but Jack had irritated her to no end. "Right, let's go," she hissed, and hoisted the unconscious Captain up by his booted feet, expecting Grey to take his arms.

Jack was out cold once more, and more limp and heavier than he was to begin with.

Soaking wet and freezing, Will continued his search aboard Grey's ship. Looking behind barrels and cannons, he decided to look below deck.
Creeping down quietly, he could see the door to the captain's quarters. "Elizabeth? Are you here?" he whispered as he began to twist the doorknob open.

Grey took Jack’s arms distastefully, and began going down the gangplank. Claudia was admirably strong for a woman, and he tried to keep his thoughts on this instead of the distastefulness of carrying this dirty pirate. Of course he could always toss him into the water... but that might give him trouble with the girls. And of course, he wouldn’t mind settling some old scores with Jack... on his terms.
“Cum’n, hurry!” he whispered anxiously, knowing Jack’s crew could at any moment be upon them. They began mounting the gangplank to the Devil’s Lightening.

"'m hurrying!" said Claudia, casting an anxious glance over her shoulder. She swiveled just in time to see Will disappear belowdeck. "'ey! Stop him!"
Several crew members sprang into action as they cleared the deck and Claudia unceremoniously dumped Jack on it to hastily pull in the gangplank.
----
Elizabeth suddenly looked alert, a sharp contrast from a moment before, when she had been looking decidedly rather sick. "Will?" she enquired, looking at the door.

"Bring 'er about!!" cried Grey, who's main concern now was to get away from this bloody harbor and into the open sea. He dropped Jack's arms on the deck too, the drunken pirate was still knocked out cold. Scurrying to the wheel, he began the process of launching his 'little boat.'

Meldawen wrote: "This'll be your sister, then?" queried Elizabeth of Victoria, voice rather strained, and without waiting for a reply added, "you'll find that our villainous captain ties a good knot, but perhaps there's something sharp somewhere you could use to free up our hands instead?"
Victoria nodded slightly. "This is my sister Isabelle. I'm sorry for no formal introduction, but I didn't think it was necessary in a time like this. And as for sharp objects, can't say I have anything with me...I lost the sword after trying to stop Grey." Victoria's emerald eyes searched the small, cramped room desperately. Suddenly she beamed, noticing the broken green glass on the table. "What about those shards of glass from Grey's rum bottles? They'd be just sharp enough to cut these ropes..."

Barry rolled his eyes at all of the name calling as he set to work on moving the ship out of the port and out to open sea. They needed to put as many miles behind their rudder as possible before those baffoons on Jack's crew realized what happened. He smirked spitefully as Will was drug on board and then turned his attention back to his work, not noticing that the blacksmith had gotten free and shifted below deck...

Claudia left the seemingly half-dead Sparrow where he lay and clattered down the stairs. "'Fraid you're not quite authorized to roam this ship over," she said with a toothy grin and a drawn sword, surprising Will where he crouched at the door to Grey's quarters.
~~~~~
Isabelle instantly set her bound wrists to a shard of dirty greenish glass, rubbing back and forth in the hope that the ropes would break. "Victoria...I'm sorry," she said huskily, not meeting her sister's eyes. "I tried to help, but I only made things worse in the end."

Victoria gazed up at Isabelle for a moment or two. "It's not your fault. It's these bloody pirates. I wish they never existed." She looked away with a few tears forming in her eyes. "How are we going to even get out of this mess?"
