Stumbling backwards as he was tossed like he weighed nothing, Elijah just stared at Jack, a dangerous expression slowly forming and twisting his features. Even though he truly was a bastard, getting called it by someone he loved like family was a button not many were willing to press. Swiping the back of his hand against his lip, he wiped away the trickle of blood that had started there. "Listen t' you!" He said while grinning like a madman, "Resorting to callin' names because you can't handle the truth!" Watching every single movement Jack made with an eye like a hawk, Elijah rushed forward again, this time using the brute strength he had but never showed. Shoving the other man backwards against the wall, he ducked his head low, his fist going to work on Jack's ribs.

Upon hearing Amy's shriek, Marabelle's head jerked up and she ran towards the sound, only to see Jack and Elijah going at it. "'Ey!" She called, attempting to draw attention. She had seen plenty of fights on board, and knew better than to get between them. Unfortunately not even the Captain could pull the two out of their fight and they'd have to go until they couldn't any longer. It was the only way.
