Bingo. Of course he was, but she wasn't disappointed at all. "Ah...Mr. Turner", she reached out a pale, callous hand, "I'm Evelyn, Evelyn O'Malley..."

Will reached out for her hand and shook it warmly, feeling not the delicate skin he had suspected, but rather more rough hands. Her touch made his heart flutter and head spin, yet he kept his cool. "Miss O'Malley...how may I be of assistance...if any?" and he smiled at her again...enamoured by the mystery of this young woman.

Captain...Captain O'Malley...! she thought, but held back from uttering the correction. His hands were indeed of a craftsman, and she shook it firmly, "Oh, yes, you may be of quite an assistance Mr. Turner..." she grinned mischievously.

Captain James Hook deftly selected the few barrels he wanted with a mere flick of his hand..."And hurry up because I haven't got all day." It was nearly time for him to return to sea.
He revelled in his life as a pirate...delighting in the cruelty of his ways and his deadliest weapon...his namesake...his hook. He had one more object to buy..."and I'll have that necklace too...the ruby one."
After collecting the gem, Hook smiled once more to himself. The necklace was heavy...far too heavy for the delicate little neck of Lady de Bourbon...but when she wore it....it would symbolise to him that she was his, and wasn't about to go anywhere...

Jack was in two minds, should he go to warn his friend Will? Or salvage this vulnerable young lady?
He was scuttling between the crowds, before he spun around to look back at the ominous galleon, the very ship that would imprison the fragile spirit for who knows how long...? With a frustrated grunt, he sprinted back, after all, Will was a strong young man, and he could defend himself!

Victoria had managed to find a stick from somewhere, and was doodling swirls in the dust with it. She had almost forgotten the world around her, lost in her drawing, but the pounding of feet she could hear coming towards the place where she was sat reminded her that Hook was coming back soon; indeed, this was probably the man himself. She looked up, ready to put on her "polite smile" look.

Jack was panting already, both from the lack of oxygen and the adrenaline, "Get up! Get up!" he cried in a shrilly whisper as he made his way closer to her. He was obviously in haste, and waved his hands at her, motioning for her to get moving.

Victoria looked up and her mouth fell open in a most undignified manner. She stood immediately. "What are you doing here?" she replied back, hushed yet equally as shrill, "What do you want? Please..." she panicked, "Nobody must see you here...I don't know what might happen..." she gasped.

Hook was about to turn the corner when he stopped. He had that inclination...something was amiss. He peered around the corner to see Lady de Bourbon, stood with her back to him, blocking his view of the person she was talking to.

A crowd was pointing towards a ship, and halted in front of the two. With time against him, Jack simply covered her mouth with his hand, "Just...shush?"
He shrouded her with a dark beige cloak, guising most of her clothes, and casting a shadow over her face, "Walk with me...don't run...don't talk..."

Victoria made a muffled shriek as the shock of what was happening overwhelmed her. Not another kidnapping...! She hurried along with Captain Sparrow, unsure of what was to happen, yet feeling remarkably safer than she had done a few moments ago.

Hook rushed forward, as the crowd dispersed. She was gone. His fury emerged as a growl of rage, heard by many of his crew floating around the dock.

A few moments later, Jack thrust Victoria into a sheltered stable. He glanced about, then followed in, "Are you all right?" he asked, his breath still a little short.

Victoria's eyes widened...had she just been rescued...? She wasn't sure, but she wasn't about to be carted about again like a piece of luggage. "Actually Captain," she said with some venom, "I'm not. I've just been bundled away ONCE AGAIN by someone I know only by name and I don't have one single idea as to what's happening at this very moment in time....I-I-...I mean...h-h-h-how very dare you!"

Jack raised his eyebrows in astonishment, he felt a little offended, "Well..." he scoffed, "If you're so outraged by being helped, be my guest and return to your loving Captain what's-his-name..." and at that he crossed his arms.
