The nerve. Seriously? Here he is offering to break her out of jail - something that would get him hanged as well - and she wants to ask questions. She should just be grateful he's saving her from the noose. As it was, this was NOT something he usually did. He refrained from snapping at her. That wouldn't help. As much as he didn't want to admit it, he needed her. He needed someone. The governor would not help without the commodore. And Norrington wasn't going to spend resources. Will silently cursed the man. Personally, he never manned a boat before so he couldn't do something. He needed this pirate - crazy or not. He sighed. "She's a friend. We played together when were younger." Well she was part of their play so it works. Really he was more fixated on Elizabeth and Abigail tagged along but this was honest enough and all that the woman really needed to know.

Don't show weakness. Don't show hesitation. She was a pirate. If she saw that he needed her badly she would use that against him. He needed to act as if her willingness to help wasn't his only option. Though, she wasn't stupid. They both knew he was fairly desperate if he was coming to her. No doubt that would hurt him. If he was honest with himself he would admit that he would probably do most anything she asked to help free Abigail. But no need to let her know that.

Wheb she asked his name he didn't waste time. "Will. Will Turner. So will you help or not?" He stood nonchalant though his heart raced. Every second they delayed here was another second Abigail was abused and mistreated. Every moment the woman asked stupid questions decreased the chance of Abigail being alive when they find her. [i]"I'll get her back, Elizabeth.[/i] He vowed silently. [i]"I swear it."[/i] Not that Elizabeth could hear him. He pushed that aside.
