Chapter one: Intro

I watched my ship sail away in the twilight, with a single tear running down my cheek. Her beautiful hull slowly made its why through the crystal clear waters of the Carribean, as the sun slowly dropped down into the same waters taking away the only thing that had truly belonged to me.

It was given to me by my father, Captian Klyde, one of the most feared pirates around. It was special not because it was the last thing my father gave to me, but because that ship was what he and my mother got married on, shortly before she had me...and died. And now that ship was wretched away from me like a person stealing candie from a babe.

My crew had mutinied. My first mate had tried to stop it all, but he was a sallow wimp of a man that he used to be. They quickly killed him. He didint really put up much of a fight, or go down heroically. He just got a shot through the head, and plopped out over the ocean, never to be seen again. After his death, they came for me. They did a crew trial, and found me quitly for some crime. I think it was that of taking a saphire necklace, and not sharing the good. Every captain had that right, but this crew was ruthless...My own doing I suppose.

They left me on this little island, they called Fox Island...And told me that I shouldnt be here long. Of course they ment I would die soon, and not that someone would come to get me.

As my beautiful ship finally reach my end of sight, I gave a sigh of longing, and despair. I then looked around me, trying to see my surrounding as best as I could, because of the rapidly dimminishing light. There where mountains, and some palms, but I couldnt see much else. I went to the beach, and as far away as possible from the water without going into the palm area(who knew what was there) and sat down, watching the stars slowly start to apear. I quickly located the North Star, and saw I was facing Southwest. I didnt really know what was closest, the Carribean Islands, or Jamacia. Either guess was as good. I layed back, and just counted stars until I fell into a peacful, and dreamless sleep, that came everynow and then for me. My only wish was that I was on the rocking ship, that would put the most fussiest babes to sleep.

I woke up amid an almost crying type sound. I jumped up and looked around. The island seemed to be totally different in the light. It was...beautiful. If I hadnt been in this situation, I would certainly make this a good place to keep whatever it was I plundered. The sound came again, this time faint. It was comming from the palms. I walked slowly over to the thick bunch of trees, trying to locate where the sound was comming from. I wondered if it was a human, and if they knew the way off this little island, that was ironically now my home.

I finally made it to the center of the little palm forest, and turned all the way around when I saw what was making the pitiful crying. I almost laughed at my foolishness to think that it oculd have been human...

It was a monkey. A baby one by the looks of it. It was just lying there on the sand, crying sadly, as though knowing if its mother didnt come, it would surly die. I gingerly walked over to it, and just as carefully knelt down to look at it. It wasnt that old. Probably only a week, at the most. I picked it up, andn it just stoped crying and looked up at me. I then thought, what if its like a bird? You touch it and then its mother doesnt have anything to do with it? I couldnt take care of a little baby monkey! Never the less, I took it back to the beach, and made a little spot for it in the warm sand with my coat...that was slightly damp, but warm. I looked around for some coconuts or anything reall. Something to give the little monkey to drink.

After an hour of searching, climbing, cutting and what could possibly called juicing, the little thing had some coconut milk. Nothing it would get from its mother, but it would work.

I decided to name it too. I couldnt go around calling it "Monkey". I had no clue as to how to tell the difference between a boy or girl, I picked the most androgyonus name out there. Captain. Maybe later if I ever found out its sex, I would add something to it...but Captain worked for me.

The rest of the day was spent finding more coconuts, trying(but failing) to make a shelter of some sort, and tending to Captian. I decided for the time being to call it..."him". He was...vocal at best. The only time he was quite was when I was holding him. I fashioned a sling so he could comfortable sit in the crook of my arm, yet I could use it. The only time he made an odd squawking nose was when I bent over to pick up an old palm frond. Ever since that...I squated.

Before it became night again, I walked through the palms. It was pretty uneventful until I came across a rock that had a small waterfall in it. I quickly ran,well as quickly as Captain would let me, to it, and tasted it...It was fresh water. I wooped for joy, and quickly took a drink. I set Captain by the water, and he just stared at it, and made odd chirping noises at me so he could get back into his little sling.

I was just finishing putting him back, when something behind the waterfall caught my eye. It was a small flash, and abit of movement. The light was starting to go, so I quickly made a little torch. Captain didnt really like it.I wnt under the waterfall as best oas I could without getting me or Captain wet. He let out a little furitive noise, but stayed calm.

"Ok. If your another stupid monkey baby I have to take care of, forget it...I already have one of those!" I called out into the little cave behind the waterfall. My voice ecoed...but that was it. Until I herd a small snicker.

"I hate monkeys." A rough male voice said from a corner. I jumped so high that it made Captain squack again.

"Who the hell are you?" I called out into the general area the voice came from.

"Why, Im Captain Jack Sparrow, love."
