An armed search party moves along the street. They look arround for the pirate and after not spotting him they continue on searching. A moment, and then Jack walks out from behind a statue of a blacksmith. He still wears the manacles. He enters the forge above is a sign with a black anvil and name 'Brown'. Jack slips through the door, takes a look around: No windows. The forge is dark, lit by lanterns. Many finelly made swords and various weapons are scattered about. Every tool is in it's place, the work bench is tidy and neat. Jack is startled by a noise or rather a snore. An old fat man with wild gray hair , in a blacksmith's apron, snores in the corner, cradling a bottle it's Mister Brown the man who took care of Will and Bella. Jack gives him a hard poke. Another. Brown snorts, turns away. Satisfied, Jack sheathes his sword, takes a hammer from its place on the wall. Moves to the anvil and starts to bang the hammer on the manacles,bends them but they don't break. He grabs a hot iron rod and places the tip and donkey's backside, the Donkey is startled and begins to move, also moving the gears he is attatched to. He puts the chains in the biggest gear succesdully breaking it in half,his hands are free. Then somekne opens the door and Jack dives for cover leaving his hat be the anvil along with he hammer. Will enters the forge, his adopted sister in tow. They have met on the way, Will of course greatly concerned for his sister. They shut the door behind them. And spot the drunken Mister Brown in the corner."Right where I left you." Will smiles. Something catches Bella's eye, the hammer is still on the anvil. " Not where I left you." Will looks at the hammer worried and ratherly alert. He moves toward the anvil.And they spot, to Bella, way too familair hat. Will reaches for it but the flat of a sword blade slaps his hand. Will jumps back pushing Bella behind him. Jack stands there, sword leveled at Will. He backs Will and Bella up, toward the door. Will glares at him. "You're the one they're hunting. The pirate." Jack acknowledges it with the tip of his head ... then frowns, regards Will. "You look familiar ... Have I ever threatened you before?" he asks curiously. "I've made a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates." Will glares. "Ah. Then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record. So if you'll excuse me ..." Beside the door is a grindstone, a sword resting in the honing guide. Before Jack can react, Will has it in hand tossing his sister another one. "Do you think this is wise, boy? Crossing blades with a pirate?" he asks.
" You threatened My sister" Jack then finally spots Bella ,who is also holding a sword in hand her hair messy in her bun. "Only a little." In responce, Will assumes an en garde position Bella steping back letting them fight. Jack appraises him, unhappy to see Will knows what he's doing. Jack attacks. The two men stand in one place, trading feints, thrusts and parries with lightning speed, almost impossible to follow. Will has no trouble matching Jack. "You know what you're doing, I'll give you that ... Excellent form ... But how's your footwork? If I step here-" He takes a step around an imaginary circle. Will steps the other way. "Very good! And if I step again, you step again ..." They continueto step around the circle
... They are now exactly opposite their initial positions. " Ta!" Jack turns and heads for the door, now directly behind him. Will registers with angry surprise and then with a vicious overhand motion, he throws his sword ,the sword buries itself into the door, just above the latch, barely missing Jack. Jack registers it, then pulls on the latch, but it won't move up the sword is in the way,stuck. Jack rattles the latch. Tugs on the sword a few times, it is really stuck in there. Jack mouths a curse, but when he turns back to Will, he's smiling. "That's a good trick. Except, once again, you are between me and the way out." he points his sword at him "And now you have no weapon." Eyes on Jack, Will simply picks up a new sword from an anvil. Jack slumps in dismay- of course they are in a forge! but then he leaps forward. Will and Jack duel. Their blades flash and ring. Suddenly, Jack swings the chain still manacled to his left hand at Will's head. Will ducks it, comes up wide-eyed. Then Jack's chain smashes across Will's sword, disarming him. Will quickly picks up another sword. Jack becomes aware that the entire room is filled with bladed weapons: swords, knives, boarding axes in various stages of completion. "Who makes all these?" he turns to see Bella watching ready to take action. "We do." both reply. "And we practice with them. At least three hours a day." Will tells Jack, rather angry."You need to find yourself a girl mate. Or maybe the reason you practice three hours a day is you've found one but can't get her?" A direct hit and Will coils even more tightly with anger. "No. We practice three hours a day so that when we meet a pirate ... We can kill it." He explodes, kicks a rack, causing a sword to fall into his hand; uses his foot to bring his dropped sword into the air, catches it and attacks Jack, both blades flashing. Jack parries with sword and chain. Jack's chain wraps around Will's sword, Will twists the handle of his guard through a link, and stabs the sword up into the ceiling . So Jack's manacled left arm is now suspended from the ceiling. Not good. He parries using one hand, twisting and dodging around.Jack compresses the bellows, blowing a shower of sparks from the furnace into Will's face. Jack grabs the chain, hoists himself up, kicks with his feet, knocking Will back. Jack uses his full weight, yanks the sword from the ceiling. Hurls a wooden mallet at Will, then a second, hitting Will on the wrist. Will drops his sword, falls down, gets up .Jack's pistol is aimed directly between Will's eyes. Will steps back, directly in front of the back exit. Glares, rubs his wrist gingerly his sister beside him. "You cheated"
Jack inly smiles. " Pirate."
Jack steps forward. Both Will and Bella step back, fully blocking the door. "
Move away."
"No."
"Move!"
"No. We can not just step aside and let you escape."
Jack cocks the pistol. "This shot's not meant for you." Suddenly, Mister Brown SLAMS his bottle against Jack's skull. Jack crumples to the ground.
