Alex strolled along the port. Her eyes drifted across the markets. She suddenly became acutely aware of her own hunger. She licked her lips and made her way over casually. She slipped a roll into her pocket before strolling off again. She was reaching for an apple when a hand clamped over her fist. She glanced over to see a soldier glaring at her. She grimaced as her hand was forced behind her back. She was led to a band of more soldiers.
"What's this?" asked one, appearing more than slightly inebriated.
"We've got a thief," said her captor. "Pirate, too," he said, twisting her around so that the "P" that was branded into the skin on her left arm was visible to the others. "Should we get the commodore?"
"If it's a pirate, aye," said another.
"I'll get him," said a dark-eyed one, giving Alex a purposeful look before setting off.

(aye, we can start that idea if you want. :) and sure thing... although I don't know if Carms would ;))

Carmon stopped on the steps and pulled an innocent look at Vari. "well, what do you think "fix up" means? And don't look so horrified! It's not that bad." Carmon raised an eyebrow and had an amused look on her face. "if you're planning on staying here and staying away from the jail than you're gonna have to bear with it. I'm sorry but that's how it is. And maybe first you should try to say "you" and "and" instead of "ye" and "an"." she smiled encouragingly at Vari. Carmon did like this girl and the more time she spent with her the more she discovered that. She took Vari again and led her down another hallway until they reached another room. "oh, and maybe you'd like to meet my brother too? he might have some ideas for a ship for you." Carmon smiled again and pushed the door open.

Cutler Beckett sat up. He had been sitting in his chair which had been comfortably tipped back against the wall, just lounging there and thinking while looking at all the ships and soldiers arranged on his desk in a smart fashion. "yes? come in" his usual calm, smooth, and cool manner returned.

(ummm, yeah... although I'm not exactly sure where (I know on Port Royal though!) tonight my brain is kinda dead... so would you like to start off? and will they be together going to the Applegate house? and I need to add more with Cole and what he's up to... :erm: but all that later! I need sleep! :P)

Vari nodded. In this situation it would be useless to try and fight back, considering this Carmon girl was being extremely nice like no one ever willingly had been to Vari. Not only that, but she now had a warm place to stay at night out of sight of the Redcoats. "Maybe you are right." The word still felt foreign on her tongue like something bitter, but she decided to bear with it for the time being.

[[PD, I'm a bit confused at your last post - when you say 'he might have some ideas for a ship for you', did you mean Cole knows where she can get a ship, or the name of one...? :confused: ]]

~

Keyara slowly wandered in, taking in all of the beautiful paintings in the room. There were very many trinkets and pieces of artwork, much like Beckett's office. Slowly her gaze met his and she smiled slyly. "May I have a seat?"

~

[[I'll try and make it work, okay, PD? :) ]]

Night had fallen by the time Edward Blackhaven and Charlotte Percy made it to one of the docks in Port Royal. It was nearly pitch black, save for the street lamps that lit their path, and eerily quiet. Looking over at Lotty with glowing green eyes, he smiled. "She's here... somewhere."

Definitely XD. And thanks!

One little question, though...was Beckett responding to one of the soldiers that had Alex knocking or was that someone else's charrie?

(oh, oops, sorry... I guess I should've explained it better. :P but I have a great idea for where Cole can GET a ship. ;) and that's what I meant.)

Carmon chuckled and pulled Vari into her room. "I get that a lot. There's no use in fighting with me as my brother says. Now sit here." Carmon guided Vari to her bed and forced her down while she went to the wardrobe and opened it. "there aught to be something for you in here. You're about my size and height" Carmon looked back at Vari and gave her a quick overlook. "what about this?" she pulled out a gorgeous, dark blue gown with all the trim and ruffles one gown could have. "and this?" she held up a matching pair of blue silk slippers. After giving Vari another look she sighed. "you've never worn a corset, have you?"

___________________

"of course." Beckett motioned to a chair directly across from him, leaving only the desk between them. He gently leaned back in his chair again and gave her a questioning look as if to ask 'and why did you come and interrupt my peaceful sanctuary like this?'. Instead he only said, "yes, Ms. Pierce?".

___________________

(ok, thanks for starting it off for me, Ara!)

Charlotte Percy stopped and her gray green eyes met Edward's for a moment. An amused look spread across her face. "how do you know she's here?" Lotty's voice seemed to echo from everywhere which created what seemed like a very loud sound in the sleeping street. "Ah, I guess it doesn't matter.... where should we start looking?"

Oh, Beckett was responding to Keyara, Millie... they're on Beckett's ship which is just setting sail to go to Port Royal. :)

Okay, thanks XD.

The soldier tapped lightly on the commodore's door. He heard the clanking of boot-shod feet behind him. He frowned and turned to see the soldiers dragging the female pirate. "What's going on?"
"Tried to nick some poor woman's purse," said one of the soldiers, holding her fast.
The soldier frowned and knocked again, this time more loudly.

((Okay here we go ;) PD just come in whenever you like ))

Sam strolled over the docks in the dark night. All the pubs were far too decent for her: everyone seemed sober and no one cheated with card games. She missed Tortuga and its chaos but there was no way she could get there. She had no ship, no money but that didn't matter now. The information which the barman of the pub had given her was much more interesting, that was before he kicked her out of course. Vari was here, in Port Royal. No doubt they could commandeer a ship together.
Quickly she put some of her red curls underneath her hood, those soldiers around Port Royal were way too curious. In the distance she heard voices, familiar voices and Sam frowned: usually there wasn't that much piratefolk on the streets in Port Royal (and pirates they had to be, since she knew no one else). With her hands in her pocket, she walked over to them, whistling, curious who to meet.

---

The Commodore had retired in his study soon after he'd talked with Gillette about the executions of next day. He woke up from his thoughts when there was a short knock on the door. He put aside his paperwork and answered: "Come in"

[[No problem, PD. :) ]]

Vari grimaced at the mention of a corset. Although she had never worn one, she had heard of women passing out from them. "No, I haven't and I don't plan to."

~

Keyara pulled out one of the chairs and sat down, thanking him. "Such a grand ship like this... it must get lonely sometimes." She eyed Beckett carefully and smirked. "I thought you might like some company."

~

"In the taverns," Edward responded, "If I know Vari, she's been gambling."

(ok, this is going great everyone! :-D)


Carmon gave Vari a glare for a minute before she said, "you might've never planned to, but I'm afraid today is the day you're going to break your plans. We have to do this right if we're going to do it at all." she firmly placed a corset beside Vari. "in the morning we'll see what we can do. For now it's getting really late."

_________________________


This seemed like an odd excuse to Beckett. Him lonely and in need of her company? He had hardly even met her and certain they were by no means friends and even if he did get lonely there were other people on board. He assumed a relaxed position and looked at her thoughtfully wondering what she would come up with to say to him next. This aught to be interesting he thought smugly to himself.

________________________

"That narrows it down." Lotty gave the street another quick scan. She noticed a figure in the distance but didn't give any thought to it, "after all this is a well-to-do English town so I doubt there's as many taverns as there is at Tortuga." Lotty gave him a wicked grin. Although she hardly ever drank or gambled she was still very accustomed to the Tortuga taverns and the whole Tortuga scene.

________________________

Emma Clarence meandered down the streets of the Port Royal looking for a place to stay for the night or for someone she recognized. She pulled her gray coat in closer around her for protection against the night air and possibly for other things. She had been to Port Royal before, of course, and it was here she had learned the most about her father. But still it wasn't enough to tell her anything she really needed to know to find him. She sighed and peered down yet another alley looking for the people or person she had come to find. They were one or some of her many friends she had made while on her voyages. Pirate friends as most of them were, since they had been the ones who had helped her the most with her quest and some had even taken her on-board even when her money had been too low to buy passage on an English ship.

(so that's my intro for Emma... I think it's rough but I hope it'll get better with her:))

A pair of hazel eyes held Carmon's glare before the owner of them spoke. "Where're am I going to sleep?" Vari inquired, still dreading the idea of dealing with the corset the following morning.

~

Keyara simply held Beckett's gaze for a moment, him having not said a word, and sat in silence, too. She cursed inwardly and thought about saying: Well, are you going to just sit there grinning stupidly like a bloody cheshire cat? Instead she quietly spoke, "Milord?"

~

Edward nodded towards Lotty. "So our job shouldn't be too hard. After all, I'm sure there aren't many pirates running around here."

[[I guess Will can bring in Sam or PD can bring in Emma soon, right? We should probably get them all together soon so we don't have so many separate plot lines. :yes: ]]

Sam now got a closer look at the couple. A man and a woman, definately no inhabitants of Port Royal. Though she didn't immediately recognised them, she thought them to be familiar in some sort of way. She glanced again at the pair and she was close enough to notice the green eyes of the man, whom she thought to be quite handsome. Sam caught his last sentence. "After all, I'm sure there aren't many pirates running around here."
Sam grinned and threw off her hood."Then yer lucky mate. Ye just ran into one.."

((Perhaps they recognise Sam ;) ))

"Commodore," said the soldier, entering the room. "We've got ourselves a pirate. Caught her theivin'," said the soldier, dragging the passive Alex into the room.
Alex watched him boredly. "The irons, then, is it?"

Anamaria dragged the escaping pirates through the streets, just in time to see Alex get caught. Muttering a few choice words, she told the others to make their way to the shore, and then she followed the soldier to the Commadore's office. if they put her in the jail, they'll find that their prisoners are gone. And I don't want that, yet.There she snuck in, looking for an opportune time to spirit the girl away.

The Commodore got up and he looked at Alex in curiosity. She was obviously more than a thief, he could see it in her eyes, her gaze betrayed the same pride Sparrow had. He took her left arm and beneath her sleeve the black "P" was evidence of his thoughts.
"No, it will be the gallow for you" He took his hat and added: "Tommorow, with the others.. I'll take her myself, soldier. I need to check on some things on the Fort anyway."

((Perhaps Anie, it would be nice if Norrington did find out that they escaped ? ))

"Ah those," said Alex, yanking her arm free of one of the soldier's grasp. "You know, Commodore, you're throwing away a very good opportunity, here," she said. "I think that you are in a position where you could gain a rather large amount of valuable information. But if it were the gallows, well then I suppose Sparrow will be torturing you forever..." she said, gazing boredly at her fingernails. "Of course, it's of little importance to me."
