The ship was, of course, the first thing she'd investigated out here. Well..in a manner of speaking. Nami doesn't quite have the strength to pull herself up onto a vessel without the use of her legs, but she does revel in swimming around and underneath it, which fairly enough isn't something she's ever really had the chance to do before.

It's only when she tries to hail its captain that she realises it's deserted. Which is puzzling, because wasn't Jack looking forward to this? But then perhaps he forgot something in town and had to go back...

Whatever the reason, she's looking for him along the beach. It's more idle curiosity at this point, because Jack can look after himself. And...well, she's a little bored. So when she finally spots him wading into the surf, Nami vanishes beneath the surface of the ocean and angles towards him through the water.

The water is up to Jack's waist when he spies something coming AT HIM under the water. At first he thinks "shark," but then he notices what looks like waving red hair. Mermaid? Even worse! Jack draws his sword and then thinks the better of it and tries to make a run for it back to the beach. The shore is a ways off, however, and it isn't easy to run when you are up to your midsection in water.

Is he running away from her?

Well, then. That's just too good an opportunity to pass up. Mermaids from the Grand Line are the fastest creature in the ocean; it'll take her all of four seconds to wrap her arms around your waist and tackle you into the surf, Captain Jack Sparrow.

And so Captain Jack Sparrow goes tumbling into the water, cursing the DP and the Malnosso and his luck, and trying to get a good angle on this creature with his sword...except he's left it on the shore. And no dagger, either.

When he can break the surface and get a lungful of air he yells out, "Leggo! Blasted bloody mermaid! Leggo now, I say!"
