Will had gotten sidetracked. Mrs. Tucker's cart had gotten stuck. Being a gentleman, Will had stopped and helped her push the heavy cart out of the pothole and then to the market. Of course that entailed listening to her talk about her 'lovely' daughter and how she and Will would make a 'fine' couple. He had listened politely. He was not interested in the woman's daughter in any way. Oh she was nice - well minus the annoying habit of fawning over him every time he interacted with her. He wasn't sure if the mother had put her up to it or if she was just that interested. Either way, he had been glad she was not there today. That would have made it even longer.

Then of course, he got caught outside the bakery and spent some time talking there. Though, it was worth it as he had taken that moment to pick up some breakfast. Then of course there had been some commotion or other about some pirate woman threatening the niece of Governor Swan. He would have gone down to the harbor to see if he could help but he knew they'd turn him away. Shame really, he had trained to fight pirates. Not to mention, even though he would have done it anyway, helping out Abigail would in a way benefit Elisabeth. But alas, here was instead back at the blacksmith shop. 

Entering, he frowned at the drunken heap of his master. "Right where I left you." He shook his head. The man was an idiot. If it wasn't for Will, he'd have starved to death by now. Will turned and saw the woman by the fireplace. She wasn't there before. Her attire immediately raised red flags. The still slightly glowing chains indicated she was the pirate. "You. You're the one they are all looking for." He said slowly taking a few steps forward.

Here was his chance. He could finally capture or kill a pirate. Will hated pirates. They had murdered his father. He didn't see it happen but they had taken the man away before sinking the ship they were on. The only reason Will had survived was because he had been hiding. The very fact he had somehow made it to land without drowning was a miracle. That was how he had met Elisabeth. She had been among those that had found him. They were so much younger than. 

He frowned and pulled a sword from where it was hanging. He pointed it at the pirate. "You're going to come with me."
