Angelina lay on the buck of the ship the Revenge, weird name for a ship, she had thought. groaning, she had again vomited her lunch, as the waves tossed the ship like a toy boat. It was noon for God sake, why couldn't she had developed sea legs, like the rest of her family? But sea sickness wouldn't keep her from visiting her brother in Jamaica, even though she missed her mother terribly, Lady Anabel Norrighton send her daughter, to prepare her brother James, at the news they were moving to Port Royal, prepare him. Surely James won't object of his mother, sister and kid brother to come to live with him? their father is now deceased, and mother simply had it with life in England. But goodness no one prepared, Angie for this? off all the nuisance, sea sickness, ugh.
Angie felt, something lick her fingers, and smiled her pet wolf Raja, was laying next to her on the bunk, he was her bodyguard, ever seen she rescued him, when he was a cub. Now the wolf, looked at her with pity.
"Will you stop it, we will be there in no time, than I won't step foot on another ship for a very very long time".
Raja looked at her, like if she had lost her mind.

Captain Jack smirked as he guided the ship out of Port Royal harbour, hoping that Norrington wouldn't send a ship out after him straight away. The Pearl was in desperate need of repair.

"Land Ho!".
Angie heard the words! the magic words!, they have reached land! oh for goodness sakes, she sat up, the cabin was still spinning a bit, she shoke her head, as she gentley got up, at the moment, her companion Mrs Kitty, who has been with the family seen James was born burst in at the moment. Looking pleased and happy.
"They are dropping anchor Miss". Angie had a smile on her face
"Thank heavens, not sure, my stomach can stand this abuse one more day". Raja had already lep on his four legs, and was headed out through the cabin doors.
"Looks to me like you are not the only one". Mrs Kitty laughed joyfully. As Angie, stepped out of the cabin, she shielded her eyes from the sun as she stepped on to the deck of the ship.
It was beautiful, so lush and green. Why she could see mountains. But she noticed a bit of communtion as she spotted, the fort. Had something happened? why so many people?
"Seems we have arrived in a bad time Miss Norrighton" Mrs Kitty said,
"You forget , my brother is in charge I'm sure what ever the cause, he would handle it". She hopes.

The Pearl passed the approaching ship and Jack tilted his hat to the people on board.

Raja was on high alert, as the wooden gang plank was lowered on to the docks, there was high activity going on in the port, not just the merchants who were unloading their cargo as well, but there were soliders as well. Had the city been attacked? even though, piracy was supposed to have died down, in these waters any ways.
Angie scanned the men looking for her brother, did James know of their arrival? or had the ship carrying your corriurer haven't arrived yet or has it sank.
"Is Master James coming to greet us Mistress Angie?" asked the old woman. As they descended with Raja, close on their heal, good thing he was wearing a collar, or there would be panic, as one old chap drops his box insight of the animal.
"Stay close to me boy" Angie smiled at the old man, she didn't want her best friend to be hurt "he most know where here, if not we will ask after all, he is the commondore". Angie was still upset she had not arrived at the ceremony of her brother, she wanted to know what has happened seen then.
She sees a small boy running and she calls to him
"You boy!". He was no more than 12 years old and scrawny looking,
"Yes Miss". His eyes opened wide as saucers, as he noticed the wolf.
Angie led out a sigh
"Its alright, he won't hurt you". The boy losing his fear held out his hand, and Raja licked it, a giggle escape the child, as he scratched the wolf behind his ears.
"wants your name?" Angie asked
"Peter, miss".
"Well Peter do could you inform the commondore that his sister has arrived".
"Your Commondore Norrighton's sister?!" the boy asked
"Why yes, I was suppose to have met him here but I don't see him".
"Oh last I heard, he was preparing to go after an escaped pirate"
"Pirate!" Mrs Kitty exclaimed
"Oh dear" whispered Angie, things are indeed looking quite interesting

Commodore James Norrington ordered men to and fro at the fort, preparing to set sail in two days time to go after the pirate Jack Sparrow. He didn't care how much Elizabeth pleaded anymore. She didn't love him and he didn't have to listen to her. After all he was Commodore.
Looking down towards the docks, he sees that a ship has come in and it's name was familiar...The Revenge...Oh dear God, he'd forgotten.
"Gillette (Forgive me if that's not the spelling) take my leave for the moment. My sister has come to port and with the man, Sparrow, complicating things, I forgot that she was due in. I must leave, excuse me."
He took off down sets of numerous corridors, steps, and open rooms until he was out of the fort. He ordered one of the foot soldiers to run ahead and tell his sister that he would be there shortly and apologize for the delay.
He alwasy loved Angelina and he was sure to hope that she'd understand.

"oh Mistress Angie, did you hear that an escaped pirate" Mrs Kitty said clutching her skirts "God knows where the spawn of satan is now". The old woman looked around as if any minute, a big bushy man would spring out at them and slit their throats.
Angie rolled her eyes at her companion's over wrought imagination. She was sitting on her trunk, fan herself as well, she had set the boy Peter to get her brother, while Raja slept faithfully by her side.
"Really, Mrs Kitty, would an escaped man, be lurking in the town?" Angie explained " He most be far away from here, no doubt he had help".
"buut Mistress, it was said pirates were vanquised". Piracy would never been entieraly vanquished thought Angie. She panted the woman's hands "Don't worry about a thing, besides James is here, and his number 1 goal was to rid the Caribbean of these villians". Than how come one escaped him so easily?
these thoughts were interrputed when she saw a group of red coats heading there way. Thank goodness!, she got up from the trunk
"Miss Norrighton" a red headed boy with freckles asked, and out of breath, that is before his eyes landed on Raja.
"Raja is my pet thank you, and yes I'm Miss Norrighton, Angelina at your service" she cursty "and this is my companion Mrs Kitty". But she didn't see James
"The commondore sends his apologizes for his delay and he will be with you shortly".
"yes yes I know all about the escaped pirate".
"Are we in danger lad" said Mrs Kitty. The boy smiled
"Not really ma'am. he escaped down the high walls of the fort into the sea, a ship was waiting for him". Angie looked at the old woman like saying "Told you".
"May I know the name of the pirate who dare cross my brother Commondore Norrighton". Angie became intriqued.
"Jack Sparrow". Jack Sparrow! why she has read loads of books on this man, he was just as famous as Sir Henry Morgan, and Blackbeard. Though she sometimes questioned the truth behind his stories, attacking Nassau Port without firing a single shot? was that even possible.
Coarse the young solider did fail to mention that Jack Sparrow had escaped before and with the help of Mr Brown's apprecientce, Will Turner, and now said Turner helped in the escape again, not only that, he got Miss Swan, the Governor's daughter involved, what a scandal. But it was not his positon to tell Miss Norrighton that.
