His eyes widening for a moment, he was about one step behind Jack for the moment. He raised his eyebrow in thought.
"The pearl? The black pearl? You own it?"
He rememberred something about the mutanty, he never remember Jack owning the pearl as far as he could remember, but that was along time ago, back when Barbossa was captain of the ship. Joseph nodded attenitvly.
"Off we go then, we have a fair way to go"
He saluted slightly and waited for instructions.
[ We can skip a bit if you wish. ]

He smiled down at Joseph and the nodded.
"Yes. The Pearl has always been mine."
He said as he clapped the lad on the shoulder as he headed for the docks.
"A fair way, eh? Not for the Black Pearl. She'll get us there before dawn."

He carried on and followed Jack, certain that he was telling the truth and moved towards the docks, noticing the black sails of the legendary Black Pearl and went wide eyed at the sight- he had only heard stories, had never seen it up close, the ship with black sails.. He followed Jack up onto the Black Pearl as they got ready for their journey to begin. ****** [ Skipping on ] ****** He agreed that it didn't take as long as Jack said it may, even less, he also learnt that the sea was definately something to get used to during time- sea sickness isn't so great. Joseph shook his head stepping onto the docks, helping to tie the Black Pearl into place.

Jack came ashore and put his hand on Joseph's shoulder.
"You alright, son?"
He asked. Knowing that sea sickness can be quite the downer when onboard the Pearl.

He nodded with a stubborn sort of look, rememberring- uck.
"Yes, i'm quite alright now. Are you ready?"
He smiled, knowing his father was a little supportive now, which was a good sign.

"I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. I'm always ready."
Though he was quite nervous about seeing an old lover after so many years. Especially since he had a child with her, and didn't know it. Talk about awkward.

He waited a moment and moved off to a nearby hous- it wasn't exaclty a manor but it was a resonable size- ranted more like, but his mother stayed in there. She was resonable rich, to support her as well as Joseph who helped out at the Swann Manor. He carried on hoping Jack was following and opened the door- to see his Mother walk down the stairs with a suprised look.
"Joseph, it;s so good to see you finally, i've been so worried."
Pause.
"Jack Sparrow? What are you doing here?"

He stopped and looked up at the house and whisled. Then he followed Joseph and stepped inside, taking his hat off and holding it at his side. He looked around and then jumped when hearing his name and looked up at Jennifer. He gave a nervous smile.
"Ello, Jenny. Just...in the neighborhood and thought I'd drop in."

She looked at Joseph expecting an explaination, but in a way she was sort of happy that Jack was back, she did miss him terribly.
"Nice to know you dropt by, 16 years late i must say"
She narrowed her eyes and looked at Joseph with piercing eyes then gave him a motherly worried look.
"Been worried about you, go and clean up, you probably havn't eaton properly for a while, Tortuga i bet you found Jack, therefore this can't be good.
Joseph nodded and strolled up stairs to clean up leaving Jennifer and Jack alone.
She walked into the living room
"Well well Jack Sparrow, nice to see you, still remaining to have your old look i see- never change"
She narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips turning to him, yes she still loved him, but she wasn't so sure she could admit that at the moment.

He nodded to Joseph as he left and then followed Jenny into the living room and stood infront of the fireplace, watching her.
"Good to see you too, you're just as beautiful as ever, love."
He wasn't trying to pull off his old Jack charm, he was merely speaking the truth. Now for the question.
"Why did you never tell me?"

She blinked and turned on her heel as she heard what he said- oh the compliments, she rememberred them like a burning memory of the past- the only charm. She took a deep breath and looked over at Jack.
"I didn't tell you because, i didn't want you to have to deal with it that's all, i thought you might not what anything to do with me after this, i mean Joseph being born- your a pirate, you can't go around looking after me all the time, you need adventour[sp]"

Jack pursed his lips and then fidgited with his hat a bit while looking down at his feet. He looked back up at her and shook his head.
"I still wish you would've told me. It would've made meeting Joseph a lot less emotional."

She blinked and looked over at him, adjusting a strand of her curled black hair behind her ear and tried to occupy herself, not to think to much of the subject to be honest. She turned around slowly to face him and sighed.
"Well, i'm suprised you even came here, you've probably got lasses to please, and adventours to go on. You and me were a long time ago Jack, it's in the past, I know Joseph may be a big part in this, but i don't like to see him getting his hopes up for the perfect rolemodel of a father"
She moved closer to him and rolled her eyes, allowing herself to calm down and scanned him quickly- the same old Jack she always knew and loved.
