Prologue
A tall, tanned woman stood on the end of the plank that was between her and the waves of the sea, staring back at the men still on her ship.
"Listen, Miss Raine, you can stay if you want, if you would only agree to our terms." Said a man close to the plank, waving his cutlass around like he was some kind of god. His skin was foul and scarred his teeth yellow. The girl, 'Miss Raine' spat back at him, causing him to take a step backward and grin at her.
"If I've told you once, Barbossa, I've told you a thousand times. You shall not have any part of my body to call your own. If you get rid of Jack, you get rid of me. And I am not a miss."
"See, Barbossa? See? I told you not to get rid of me." Said the man who was called Jack, who was grinning awkwardly. He was surrounded by evil, decrepit pirates.
"Oh, shut up, Jack. Your turn next." Said Barbossa, turning back to the girl who was standing proudly on the wooden beam. "Very well, Raine, your time here is up then, and you have chosen your fate. Catch." He tossed her a pistol. She caught it without any trouble. "I trust you'll be wanting that, darlin, before the day is through. Now git moving afore I change my mind!"
"We couldn't have that happening, now could we?" The girl said sarcastically, but when Barbossa took a menacing step toward her, she scowled. "Very well, I can walk on my own." She turned and took a swan dive off the board, swimming toward the island in the distance before her strength ran out. She turned once she was a fair distance away from the ship, to see Jack standing on the end of the board, apparently saying something to the men on the ship. But then something was tossed into the water and Jack dove off after it. After that, the girl, Raine, just turned back around and used the last of her strength to crawl up onto the island and sigh happily, flopping herself down into the sand.
"What's put you in such a fine mood, Jane?" Jack said, dragging himself wearily up onto the island and staring at the Pearl make its way away from the island.
The girl frowned. "For the last time, Sparrow, the name is Raine. I don't want you calling me Jane. It's embarrassing."
Jack grinned and sat down next to her. "Well, sorry, Janie dear, but I was just wondering what was making you so happy. After all, we might as well be dead. And also, while you might want to be called by your last name, Captain, or Jack will do just fine for me, thank you."
Raine smiled.
"Well, I was just thinking about how we have all the time in the world, just the two of us here on this island."
Jack grinned slowly.
Raine stood up and turned her back on him.
"Have fun!" She called over her shoulder to the scowling, bewildered Jack.
