OOC: I'm just checking what the plan was, I think Evie stops at Gonaives where Rory comes into the plot, and then Isle de Muerta. Let me check.

My last post: (about being a good friend)
"Pfft", Jack scoffed at the last comment, "I'm not so sure about that..."

Victoria sighed, and patted his shoulder... "I'm sure you're a fine friend Captain Sparrow..." she examined the drunken glaze in his eyes and stood slowly.... "...I think I'd better leave you to your thoughts...Good Night..." she paused...and smiled tenderly, "...Jack."

Jack gave a mischievous smile and waved his hand as if he were about to say something charming and delightful, however only a few vowels spluttered out before he toppled off of his chair.
There was a moment of silence before loud, throaty snores ensued.

Victoria span around, and burst out laughing. She laughed until tears dripped down her cheeks. She hadn't laughed in so long...! Wiping them away with her finger, she stumbled back over to the drunken pirate and dragged him nearer to the bed, almost falling over herself as she heaved the man across the floor. Finally, unable to lift him, she pulled the sheet and pillow down from his bed and tucked him up. Whispering close to his ear..."Good night Captain..."

Meanwhile, Evelyn was at the wheel, her sharp green eyes scrutinizing the path she was taking. The map was still in her hand, although she had memorized the directions. Even though it was a basic map, so far it was good enough.
"Capitan, what do we do about the Senor downstairs?" enquired Jorge.
Evelyn merely shrugged, "Just leave him."
"But...he hasn't eaten for days, he doesn't look so well...we do still need him Capitan..." Jorge gently insisted.
Sighing, Evelyn nodded, "Alright, alright, send some food down will ya?" she waved him away.
Jorge prepared a plate of what was left from dinner in the galley and made his way to the cells. He passed the plate and a cup of water through to the young prisoner.

Will thought he sensed someone nearby....groggily he opened his eyes to see a cup being thrust in his face. The ache in his belly and the nausea he felt urged him to grab out blindly until he had a weak grasp on the cup. Thirstily he threw the water down his throat... "Thank you..." he rasped, coughing slightly as his dry throat was quenched.

Jorge nodded to him, there an awkward silence, he refilled the cup, "Watch your mouth around her, the Capitan..." he said as he passed it to him. "She er..." he paused, "She can be...difficult."

Will couldn't help but chuckle a little... "Don't I know it...", he stopped and leaned forward a little..."she's getting herself in terrible danger. She's putting all our lives at risk. I know she's a strong and powerful woman..." he laughed again...before adding mysteriously..."but I don't think she can handle this!"

Jorge leaned forward, "You mean the treasure?" he asked, intrigued. "She hasn't really spoken about it, all she said was...was that there would be a reward for us all...but really, she hasn't said a word." He now sat down, crossing his legs, "Why, what is the danger...?" he asked.

Will began to explain... "Once you take even one piece of the treasure, you are cursed. Cursed to walk the earth unfeeling, untasting...un-living..." he paused..."you're a walking corpse. You can't die..." Will remembered his Father for a moment, and looked away for a fleeting second, then continued... "Sounds good hmm? But you can't live either. You'll long to be released, and the only way you can, is to deny your greed....and leave the treasure." Will sat back on his heels, and folded his arms and supped his drink again slowly. Cocking an eyebrow he spoke quietly... "Still feel like chasing that 'reward'?"

"Cursed treasure..." Jorge laughed, "Sounds a little cliché, no?" he offered more water, and then shaking his head added, "I really doubt that this treasure has this curse that you speak of..." Could it be? In any case, Jorge kept it in mind, bitter immortality didn't really take his fancy.

"You may laugh", Will pointed a finger warningly, "but it's true, I've seen it with my on eyes. The moonlight....it reveals all." He sipped the drink again, and turned away slightly.

Jorge looked down, then stood and made his way back above deck.
Evelyn was still at the wheel, seeing Jorge she said nothing, and so Jorge said nothing. Frowning, Evelyn took out her telescope, there seemed to be a small island a few miles away, so she turned her course very slightly to avoid getting near any rocks.
Katrina approached her, "Captain?"
Evelyn put the telescope away and turned to face her, "Aye?"
"Where's our first destination?" she asked.
Evelyn narrowed her eyes a little, "First destination?"
Katrina paused, "Well..I know that we're on an important voyage but umm...I thought it would be good for the crew to stop somewhere...half way just to liven up a little Captain." She was a bit hesitant as was everyone else, Evelyn wasn't really in good moods these few days.
Evelyn looked at her for a moment or two, then nodded, "Alright Katrina, we'll stop at Gonaives. But I'm not dilly dallying, y'hear?"
Katrina nodded, "I hear Captain." she replied and went on her way.
