I walked up to my bedroom with Lillian after a long, boring dinner event that mum made us go to. Lillian looked completely pleased with the idea of it because she knew that her love interest, James Norrington, would be there. I honestly didn't know what she saw in him. I sat down on my bed and sighed. "You know we've gotta go back out there." Lilly said, fixing her hair in the vanity mirror. Of course she wanted to go back out, she'd get to see bloody Norrington. "I know. I just need a break." I stared out the window for a while and breathed in the fresh air. For a split second I thought I caught a glimpse of a ship but I figured it was just a trick of the water. After I grabbed my father's necklace off my nightstand and Lilly fixed herself up, we walked back downstairs to the large dinning room.
(Hope that's good and that you can both can write. I wasn't sure what to write.)

"Drop anchor!" I shouted from the helm. Jack turned to me, "Tha's my job, Jade" "Shut it Jack... to the long boats!" I order and the crew scrammbled to get my orders done. I walked down the steps and to the railing, Jack trailing behind me. Jack and I had a past together... a very interesting past. First we hated each other, then we loved eachother, then we cared for one another, and now we were just very good friends... I wasn't exactly part of his crew, I wasn't a captive, i wasn't the captain or first mate. I had my own ship of which i captained named the Seductress. Only I lost her when i was raided my my life long enemies, the brothers Clyde and Clark. From there my luck spiraled down, and now i needed Jacks help more than ever. It was funny that I had almost as much power as him on his ship, more than Gibbs who was his first mate. "Lets go Jack" I said pulling him down the ladder after me. We were at my least favorite place in the world, Port Royal, but I had buisness to do here, buisness that meant life or death. So we rowed quietly to the shore of this proper, sugar coated town.

Anna and I walked back into the large dining room and sat beside each other at the table. Dessert was going to be served, and then talking and finally the dinner event would be over, and James would be gone. He is the man I want to marry, but it all comes down to what my father says. I can't wait until I can leave here and be back on the ship with Anna. But, I know James would most likely not follow me. "Anna, he's over there! Isn't he the most perfect man you have ever seen?" I asked, pointing to James across the room, tapping Anna's shoulder.
((I hope that was good. I suck at first posts, I really do.)) ((edit: i fixed it a little. gah, i cant remember anything about lilly! and she's my own character!! *bangs head against wall* i have lilly in too many different stories, and im confusing her lives!))

(whoa whoa whoa...Lilly...You grew up on dad's ship didnt ya? Yer just visiting me an' mum.) I smirked at her. "So go over there." I said, nudging her with my elbow. I was the only one who knew about their relationship, if you can call it that. They had been secretly seeing eachother while Lilly stayed with me. We walked over to the other side of the room and they started talking. I wasn't paying attention. I, unfortunately, had to worry about my stepfather chosing a suitable husband for me. I glanced over at him and saw him talking to a man that I had once had the "pleasure" of meeting. Lilly looked at me and followed my gaze to them. She gave me a sympathetic smile and continued her conversation with Norrington. I suddenly wished I had ran away with Jade and Jonathan, our older siblings, when they left.

We pushed the long boat up to the shore, silently and still covered in darkness. "So.. who are ye looking for?" Jack asked as we walked swiftly down an allyway. The rest of Jacks crewo was behind us, ,waiting for my signal. I loved how I could take control over his whole crew and ship and even him sometimes. I held out my hand for the crew to stop; a few navy men were passing and I didn't want to blow our cover so soon. "Anna and Lilly Black" I whispered back. He raised an eyebrow, "Black? You mean like Henry Black?" "Yup" "Why do you need to find them?" He asked. I supposed I had never mentioned to him they were my sisters and i needed their necklaces and blood to lift my darling curse. We made our way down another street or so, when I decided we were far enough. "Ok men..do your thing. Meet back at the ship in no more than 10 minutes or we're leavin ye" With that the men dispersed and me and Jack headed for the old Black mansion, tho i doubted thats what it was called nowadays.

After a little while longer, I decided I would try and slip away for a minute or two. I walked into the entrance hallway and paced in there for a little while. I ended up sitting on the steps leading up to my room and put my head in my hands. I wanted more than anything to be somewhere else. I suddenly heard the front door open and my head shot up. What I saw made my jaw drop slightly. A woman, dressed in men's clothing, and the strangest man I had ever seen walked through the door quietly. They were pirates. I looked closer at the woman's face. She looked familur. I stood and they finally noticed me. "Can I help you?" I asked caustiously.

I was talking with James about ways to get my father--a pirate--to like him, so that we could have his blessing to be married. My mother would love the idea. "Well, we won't exactly need your father's blessing since your mother remarried. Would we?" James asked, and I sighed. "I love my father more than my mum. I'd rather him say I can marry you instead of my step-father." I said, and James opened his mouth to say something, but I heard the door open. Expecting more quests, mother? I thought as James and I went to see who it was. I heard Anna ask something, and by the time I saw who the people were, James had pulled me back around the corner.

I had opened the front door to the mansion and stepped through, Jack at my side. I hadn't expected anyone to be there, but I noticed a girl sitting on the steps, her head in her hands. "Can I help you?" She had asked. I saw out of the corner of my eye a woman round the corner then it looked as if she had been pulled back. I faced the girl on the steps.... maybe this would be easier than I thought, but no matter, it was vital that my identity be hidden no matter whom i met up with until I got my sisters back on the ship. I wouldn't let them know it was me until then...i was just some treasure seeking pirate. "Tell me" I demanded taking a step closer, "Where can I find Anna and Lilian Black" I narrowed my eyes and waited for an answer.

I furrowed my brow. Nobody knew me as Anna Black anymore besides my family. "How do you know-" I stopped, staring at her. I took a step closer and she pulled a face. My eyes widend. She couldn't possiblely be... "Jade?" I questioned, hoping I was right. By the look on her face, I was. I noticed out of the corner of my eye, the man she was with pulled a face and looked at me then her then back, utterly confused.

"I dont know what yer talkin bout girl, are you Anna black?" I asked trying to hide the shock from my voice. I knew it was one of them.. either Anna or Lillian. But they were twins and she hadn't told me her name... She seemed to contemplate for a minute then said, "I'm Anna" But the excitement in her eyes made me know she knew it was me. I refrained from smiling...she had grown so much, and looked beautiful...she looked a bit like me but younger with softer features. "Good" I snapped, "Wheres this Lillian" But I relized the girl I had seen out of the corner of my eye minutes ago was Lillian.

"Still in the party. Now, can you kindly tell me what this is about?" I questioned, crossing my arms. It was Jade. I knew it. She had our father's eyes and hair, except much longer. She stared at me closely before replying.

She knew it was me..i couldn't hide it from her, and after all this time... strange. "I have some buisiness I need to attend to. And I need you and Lilly-- Lillian Black to do this" I said still trying not to sound too friendly.

"James, let me go!" I said, trying to get out of his grasp. "No, Lillian. I am not allowing you to be taken away and have God only knows what happen to you on a pirate ship!" He said. "Have you forgotten that I was living on a pirate ship! Now, please! My sister might need my help!" I said, and James let go of my arm. I ran back into Anna and froze, watching her talk to one of the pirates that came in. She looked familiar, but I wasn't sure.

I turned and saw Lillian standing behind me. I motioned for her to come forward and she stood at my side. "What do you need us for?" I questioned her, not moving.

I grinded my teeth together.. i hadn't expected this too be so difficult. Jack leaned in to me and whispered in my ear. "Can't we just grab em, and stoll back down to me ship...simple and easy to remember" I debated it in my mind. I was getting very frustrated with all my sisters questions, but it seemed so much easier just to grab them and drag them back to the ship, but at last i made up my mind. "I'll explain it all to ye when we get back to the ship...now, if ye'd be so kind as to follow me..." I said ready to grab them if they objected.
