So after having that bomb land on me, I walked into Blackbeard's courters. I could hear Jack's voice already yapping away. As I got closer I could hear exactly what he was saying.

"You have been deceived. She is not your daughter. Believe me when I tell you, I know about her deception."

I rolled my eyes. "For god's sake Sparrow you can't go one minute without causing trouble can you?"

Jack jumped a little after hearing my voice behind him. He turned around smiling widely. "Well if I didn't, nothing would ever be interesting darling."

I scoffed and shook my head.
"You're just lucky it was me who walked in. Imagine what would have happened if she heard you. I can," I chuckled, "And it's quite amusing." Though right as I said that, I heard movement. "Well I suppose I don't have to imagine." I said grinning. "Come on out dear, I know you're hiding."

And as I requested, Angelica came out of her hiding spot. Jack's expression changes immensely when she did. Which made me laugh.

"Wow you really are the same."

"You two know each other?" Blackbeard asked pointing at the both of us.

I nodded as it were an obvious fact. "Of course."

"How?" Angelica asks with jealously in her tone.
I raised my eyebrow at her.

I looked over at Jack to see him looking even more nervous. "Oh," I grinned absolutely loving this situation, "Are you another one of Jack's girls?" I asked walking toward her, literally looking down on her.

"No! I'm not just-"

"I meant no disrespect," I commented, tilting my head. "I'm actually quite confused on how he got a beauty like yourself." I complimented, caressing her cheek softly.

Once I saw a blush overcome Angelica's face I smirked and backed away. I looked over to see Jack chuckling and Blackbeard's eyes widened. "Oh sorry about that. Forgot father was in the room!" I said looking back and forth between Angelica and Blackbeard.

Blackbeard clears his throat, probably trying to ignore everything that just happened. "May I ask what exactly you're doing here Siren?"

I let out a laugh-like sigh. "Yes well... you see I heard that you are going to the Fountain." Blackbeard nodded. "Yes, now I know we all know that to use the fountain there is a ritual. A ritual that calls for a tear from a mermaid."

Everyone nodded.

"Now that is what I'm here for. I need to know where exactly you plan to get a mermaid."I said in a serious tone.

"Why is that?"Blackbeard said in a challenging manner.

I scoffed, placing my hands onto his desk. "Because I happened to rule over several kingdoms that are inhabited by merpeople." All three of their faces were overcome with shock. "And if you plan on hurting any of my subjects I will personally sink your ship with no delay. We both know I can."I stare into Blackbeard's eye, and if I could I would probably burn straight through them.
I don't take too well with people challenging me for no reason, basically just to show their dominance. Especially when I comes to my people. So where EXACTLY are you going to get a mermaid?"
I demanded this time in a not so friendly tone.

"White cap bay."Angelica spoke up, defusing the tension.

That made me un-tense, and I sighed out of contentment. "Thank you Angelica," I said giving her a small smile. "White cap bay is just fine, Perfect even. Those mermaids are monstrous and are underserving of their power." I commented, calmly walking away from Blackbeard's desk.

That's when Tim entered as well.

He has impeccable timing.

"Everyone and everything is ready Captain."Tim stated, standing like a soldier who has fulfilled their orders. I gave him a small nod, which led him to walk out of the room once again.

I let out a short, content sigh. "Well it seems I am needed, so if you'll excuse me," I said making my way to the door, "That was all I wished to discuss anyway."

As I opened the door Blackbeard spoke up. "I still have some questions-"

"Captain Blackbeard all you need to know is that I will be accompanying you on your voyage. Just to make sure you do not mess with things you're not supposed to." I stated, cutting him off with a sharp tone. I looked back to see Angelica shocked that I spoke like that to her father, and Jack looking at me throughly confused. While Blackbeard simply sighed and sat back down. Claiming victory I waved at the three of them, "Thank you for your time." Quickly before anyone could say anything else I closed the door behind me. To be meet Tim's face.

"So is it really him?" He asked, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"Which one?" I asked, walking down the stairs. I know by now the new must have reached him.

"Both."

I groan, "The one that looked totally confused in there was Jack, and the other one.." That's when my mind seemed to wander.

How the hell did he end up here?

Was he here the whole time?

Does he...

"Captain?"

I shook my head once I heard Tim's voice. "I think you already know enough to know who the other one is." I remarked jumping over to my ship. "Speaking of which, where is the other one?"

"In your courters Captain." He answered jumping over himself.

"Thank you." I speak softly as I draw near toward the door that held my past behind it.

Tim smiles at me. "No problem at all."

"Make sure the crew know their course, will you?" I asked, knowing very well that he would have to tell them in the morning. Seeing as the whole crew was asleep.

"Of course," he nods with a knowledge of the crew as well. I gave him one last, small smile before walking to my courter. Right as I clutched the handle and so close to twisting the door open, Tim said, "Good luck Syreana."

I turned to face him once last time to give him  thankful gaze before opening the door. When I did I saw the face I had longed to see for so long. It was like I was stuck in place for a few seconds. That was until he looked back at me.

It seemed like an eternity of us gazing at one another in complete silence. Luckily he decided to break it, letting me once again here his warm, low voice. "Syreana?..." my breathing seemed to shake just at the sound of his voice. "Is it really you?"
