- Chapter Fifteen -
As Raven and Gibbs emerged from Brown's former home, they found Will standing outside. This did not please Raven at all since she had specifically told him to stay out of her way. Apparently the young male had a different idea.
"I thought I told ye to leave, Boy." Scowled Raven as her eyes set on him.
Will looked her defiantly in the eye, then spoke to Gibbs.
"Gibbs, I thought I should warn you some of Commodore Norringtons men have been around this area. Some of the nearby residents complained about noises coming from here."
"Nothin' to worry about, Lad. I doubt we'll have any trouble."
Will raised an eyebrow sceptically, but nodded.
"Oh, and Lad? Give me warmest to Miss Elizabeth."
Will gave Gibbs a warm smile. While this exchange had been occurring Raven had been looking further up the street.
"Gibbs. We better move. Now."
Gibbs glanced to where Raven had been looking. In the distance he could just make out a couple of guards. It was their queue to get a move on.

Jack was beginning to become impatient. Raven and Gibbs had been gone a long time, and he was wondering what was happening. They couldn't just wait there for ever, and there was the code to think about. Still there was plenty of time before that would take effect.
To pass the time he had called Robert into his cabin. He had been going to teach the boy how to play poker, but it appeared that Raven had already beaten him to it.
"Is there anything that Raven hasn't taught you?" Asked Jack.
"Well she hasn't taught me how to fight with a sword." Replied Robert after thinking it over.
"Well then, Lad. Do ye want me to teach you?" Jack smirked at the boy, thinking that it would help pass the time.
"There is no need Captain. Malone taught me how to do that." Replied Robert proudly.
Jack's smirk dissolved away, making him stare at the boy and shook his head. Maybe he should just stick to passing time away with rum.

Raven and Gibbs quickly fled the area with the guards. They were mere moments from where they had left the boat when they heard a voice being called out from behind them. Their getaway hadn't been as clean as she had thought.
"Halt there!"
Raven spun round and saw a group of four guards, they appeared to be different to those she had spotted earlier.
The eldest of the guards stepped forward and gestured at them.
"And what is your business, Madam, as it would seem. Not that anyone would be able to tell under all that mess." The younger men laughed at this. But it didn't amuse Raven.
"I'd keep those types of remarks to yourself, if I were you, mate." She stated her voice lowering damgerously.
Gibbs eyes widened as he saw Raven reach for her sword. This was the last thing that should be happening. The youngest of the guards had been watching her too, and unsheathed his sword.
"I would not recommend that you do that, Miss." He stated crisply.
"Neither I, you, Lad."
By this point the rest of the guards had there swords aimed at Raven. Gibbs had no choice but unsheathe his own blade.
The fight ended quickly than Gibbs had expected. Raven took down two of the guards by slashing them simply across the stomach. They lay trying to stop the bleeding, breathing heavily. Gibbs had just taken down a third when he glanced over at Raven.
Raven had somehow gotten hold of the youngest of the guards. She was straddled over his chest, with one had clamped around his throat so he couldn't move. She slid her sword back into its sheath. Then reaching into her coat she pulled out her dagger.
"You're only youn', Lad. Ye should have a long life in front of ye. But this will make sure ye never cross a woman again, or a pirate." Raven's voice was raspy and low.
The young man's face had a look of terror, as the blade came down into one of his eye sockets. He screamed out in agony, tears were free flowing which was quickly joined by a stream of blood. A few moments passed before the young man finally passed out.
Raven ran a finger down the side of one of his cheeks, she then pulled herself up. She looked at Gibbs, then made her way back to the boat. Gibbs followed her mutely. The tales that he had heard about her were looking less like tales and more like reality.

Jack was humming a song to himself in which he couldn't remember the words, when there was a knock on his cabin door. It interrupted him, which was probably for the best, since the unknown song was starting to annoy him.
"This better be good." Jack called.
Malone appeared at the door and peered at Jack for a few moments.
"Raven and Gibbs are about to board."
"Thank you. Send Raven in here will you." Replied Jack, pleased that they were finally back on board. It was about time too.
"Aye, Captain."
With that Malone took off. Jack sat at his table and drummed on the table with his fingertips. He didn't have to wait long, as Raven walk straight in.
"You could of at least knocked, Lass."
"Didn't think you'd mind, after all you did request me." Raven retorted.
Jack noticed that her hand was covered in blood. There was also blood on the side of her face that had started to dry.
"What 'appened?" He asked gesturing at her face.
Raven brought her bleeding hand up to her face. Then peered down at her hand as she brought it down. She frowned for a second.
"My warning not to return to Port Royal for a while."
Jack raised a eyebrow. "Care to elaborate?"
"Gibbs and I ran into a spot of bother. A few of the Commodores guard thought they'd have the chance to capture me. Ran them down, but I left a few reminders for them not to mess with me for a while."
"That how ye hurt ye hand then?"
"Not quite. Did that as I found this." Raven reached into her coat and pulled out the paper she had found earlier. She opened it up and peered at it, she smirked at herself, then showed it to Jack.
Jack scratched a temple on his head, as he tried to understand what she meant. Jack then looked at the paper in her hand. At least one thing was clear, it appeared to be a faded map, along with some scribbles.
"It's a map. What's that writin'? Is it a code?" Asked Jack, not about to admit that he didn't understand what was on it.
"Not a code, Sparrow.” Raven gave a shake of her head and put her gaze back onto the papers. “But it is a message. It's in Latin. From what I can make out, it's pretty much saying where we have to go to find the Vase of Valyos. It appears that the map itself is the mark of Valyos."
"Ye can read Latin?" Asked Jack.
"Aye me da insisted. Had a tutor and everythin'." stated Raven.
"So where does it say we should be headin'?"
"From the looks of the co-ordinates......” She paused and worked out the co-ordinates within her head. Wetting her lips, she nodded in confirmation to herself. “...Havana."
Jack nodded and got up from his seat. At least they were getting somewhere in this expedition, and they now had a new destination. Finding a bit of cloth he gestured to Raven to sit down. Raven eyed Jack wearily but complied.
Jack grabbed one of his bottles of rum, then soaked part of the cloth. Raven watched him and then it dawned on her what he was planning to do.
"If you think you're goin' to do, what I think you're goin' to do. Then you've got no chance, Sparrow."
"For your own good, Lass." Replied Jack as he approached her.
Before she could move out of the way Jack made a quick move with his hand and grabbed her by the wrist. Then quickly aimed the cloth for her bloody hand. Raven hissed slightly and tried to get out of his grip. Jacked sighed, and let go of her.
"Fine, do it yourself." Jack held the cloth towards her.
Raven just smirked in response, and took the cloth from him. Jack watched her as she began to clean herself up. He expected her to wince in pain, but there was nothing in her face but pure concentration. Inwardly she felt the pain, but she didn't like to show weakness.
After Raven finished with her hand, she made a quick effort to get rid of some of the blood off her face. Jack stopped her, and took the cloth and ran it along her jawline where she had missed some of the stain. She watched him carefully as he ran the cloth along her face, her eyes watching his intently.
Jack was just finishing up, tossing the cloth to one side and was about to pull away when he was taken by surprise. One moment there was a distance between them and the next Raven was grabbing him by the back of his head and pulling him to her mouth, kissing him roughly. It took a couple of seconds but he began to return the kiss, matching the roughness that she had set.
He was just shifting an arm around her shoulder as Raven just as suddenly shoved him roughly upon his table, making him land upon his back, his lower legs dangling over the tables edge. She drew back on briefly so she was able to straddle his waist, while she quickly shed off her coat, tossing it to one side. Once that was out of the way she leaned down onto him, capturing his mouth once more, before he was able to make any objections. Not that he felt any reason to object.
She drew him in deeper with her kiss, now using her tongue to taste and explore him, tasting a mix of rum and sea salt, to which he was able to get the same from her. She moaned almost desperately into his mouth as Jack reached up his hands and began to expertly undo the laces at the top of her shirt. Raven responded by pulling the end of his shirt out of his trousers and ran her hand under it, feeling the bare skin beneath.
They were too preoccupied with each other to hear the knock at the door. Neither did they hear the door open.
"Captain...." The cautious voice of Malone trailed off seeing the situations between the two captains.
Raven almost fully leapt off of Jack, and glared at Malone. Backing away and redoing the laces on her shirt.
"My apologises. I didn't mean to disturb you both." Malone paused for a moment expecting either Jack or Raven to say something, but they both stayed silent. He shifted his gaze to the ground, knowing that the intrusion wouldn't sit well, especially with Raven. "Captain Sparrow, Gibbs would like to speak with ye. He's currently at the helm, awaiting instructions."
"Aye. Thank you Lad." Jack muttered, unsure if he was grateful or not for the intrusion. He gave Raven a parting glance and headed out of the cabin.
