"What do you suppose he was thinking forcing his way into father's party that way?" Elizabeth asked, while irritatedly pacing the floor in her father's parlor. Will was watching her. The party had ended late last night and the guests had all gone home. But the story of the disruption would spread rapidly Elizabeth knew. "Doesn't he know that he made an already difficult situation harder? All of Port Royale know of your "connections" with infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. What is he doing here anyways?" Elizabeth finally quit pacing and stood looking out a window.

Up to that point Will had stood back, letting Elizabeth have her say. Now he joined Elizabeth at the window.

"It'll be all right. No irreparable harm was done." He grinned. "You know that Jack is as unpredictable as the sea is wide." A faint smile pulled at the corners of Elizabeth's mouth.

"I guess you're right. Still, I wonder what he's in port for?" Will shrugged.

"I don't know. But we may find that out yet."
