Pirates of the Caribbean: The Return of the Gold Medallion
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters used in this story. They are from my all time FAVORITE movie, POTC: The Curse of the Black Pearl. This is my
first Pirates fic, so bare with me on this one! Enjoy!
Chapter 1- The Heart of a True Pirate
The soft, cool breeze drifted from the shore of the ocean to the homes of the island. The sky was gray and lonely, baring no sign of cheerfulness whatsoever. The harbor in which all the ships were docked was empty, except for the few people who were on the beach, perceiving the fabulous view of the enormous vessels. According to the attitudes of the people on a day such as this, the period of time which has just commenced would seem like it lasted for an eternity. However, for those who used their time wisely and thriftily, the day would not be so languorous. Two such candidates were Will Turner, a local blacksmith, and Elizabeth Swann, now called Elizabeth Turner. She was the governor's daughter, and held a high social status.
Will's duty as a blacksmith and husband was to take care of him and his wife, while continually producing the finest swords and weaponry in town. He practiced swordfighting three hours a day, often with his good friend, Jack Sparrow, a swashbuckling pirate and captain of the Black Pearl, a massive pirate ship.
Though on this uneventful and weary day, Will Turner was not even remotely close to his home. He was on his honeymoon, relaxing with his beautiful wife in France, a place "with the best amusements, women, and rum," as stated by Jack Sparrow. At the moment, they were sitting on the beach, Elizabeth getting a tan, Will taking a swim in a lagoon that was connected with the ocean.
"Hey, Elizabeth," said Will. "Come and have a swim with me."
"I can't at the moment, Will," said Elizabeth. "I am tanning."
Will did not reply to her answer. Instead, he put his two hands together, picked up some water, and walked up to the sand, where his wife was tanning. Her eyes were closed and focused on deep thoughts, which is why it came as a surprise when Will opened his hands, spilling the water on her.
"Ahh!" she screamed, opening her eyes. "Will Turner! You better run for your life!" She got up and ran at him.
He ran toward the lagoon, and Elizabeth followed. He stopped when he reached the water. "You said that you didn't want to come in here," he said, surging Elizabeth's mind to change. "So I guess you can't get me." He smiled.
"Well, that was before I was splashed by a commoner!" She jumped on Will, knocking him into the water, both of them laughing. He pulled her in by the foot after he came to the top, soaking her tanning outfit.
"I hope you can afford to buy me a new tanning suit," said Elizabeth, as she spat out water.
"And I hope that you can swim," said Will. He grabbed her around the waist and pulled her further out into the lagoon.
"No Will!" she screamed.
"Yes Elizabeth," he replied smoothly. "Don't worry, I am right here. I will protect you from any harm or danger. Just like always."
"But you don't have your sword."
"Who needs a sword? Swords get too ugly to be used in front of you, my dear. Instead, I will sock my enemy in the face, kick them in the shin, knee them in the stomach, ask them if they want mercy, and elbow them in the back of the head. Sound good?"
"Will Turner, you come up with the craziest ways to defeat pirates."
"Pirates? I don't think you have to worry about pirates anymore. The worst of them are gone. They went down with their captain, and they are going to stay down forever. Besides, Jack has ensured me that he has told every pirate that he knows to leave us alone."
"But can we trust Jack? I mean, half the time he talks to us, he's drunk."
"Didn't Jack keep his word when he said that he would rescue us and make sure that he go the Black Pearl back? Didn't he ensure that Captain Barbossa would go down with his crew, never to be seen again? Didn't he tell us that he would visit us, and that if there was every anything we needed, he would be happy to steal it for us?"
Elizabeth smiled at the last remark that Will made. She knew in her heart that all of this information was true. "I guess you're right," she said. "I trust Jack just as much as you do."
"And you will always know that I will protect you, no matter what," said Will. "I love you, Elizabeth."
"And I love you, Will." They looked at eachother sweetly, and gave eachother a romantic kiss that lasted for quite some time. There was a definite amount of passion in the kisses that Will gave Elizabeth, but in this one, the degree was very strong. As the couple romanced, they had no idea that they were being closely watched, by none other than a pirate.
"You have the heart," said Will, "of a goddess who's kisses take you into a world of love, romance, and passion, where all of a man's dreams come true."
"And you have the heart," said Elizabeth, "of a true pirate, who give the best kisses any woman could imagine."
"Tell me something I don't already know," said Will. He was going to kiss her again, but he was interrupted by a low, raspy voice of a pirate.
"I hate to break up this scene of romance," said the pirate, "but I have business to attend to, so if you'd gladly hand over this fair maiden, I would be most pleased."
Will smiled at the pirate standing before him. He was a tall man, with a black beard, a black pirate suit, and brown boots. He had dark markings around his eyes, and wore many necklaces and rings.
"Hello, Jack," said Will. "It is a pleasure to see you, as always."
"Ah, Will," Jack answered. "The pleasure is all mine, but I still wish to see your maiden."
"And why is that?" asked Elizabeth.
"Because I have a little gift for you," replied the pirate, yellow teeth gleaming out behind his wide smile.
"A gift? For me? You shouldn't have."
"But, I did," replied Jack smoothly.
"No, you really shouldn't have stolen an old lady's diamond necklace," she said, pointing to one of his many necklaces.
"This isn't for you," he said. "This is for you." He opened his hand to reveal a circular gold medallion. It had a skull on it which was gleaming beautifully.
Both Will and Elizabeth gasped.
"That's right," said Jack. "Will's old medallion. I've taken the liberty to give it a name." He moved around as if he were drunk, but he was actually walking closer toward the lagoon.
"And what did you name it?" asked Will.
"The Gold Medallion," said Jack. "The Gold Medallion."
