Pirates of the Caribbean:
Which Year is it Anyway?
Chapter 1: Getting To Know You
Late one night my sister, best friend, and I were hanging out in my room when I asked them if they wanted to hear one of my Jack Sparrow books. They said it was ok, so I picked The Age of Bronze since it was one of my favorites. I had read all the way to where Jack and the crew noticed the bronze ship in the water.
" I wish we could be there with them." I said.
" Yah, that sounds like it would be fun." Erin told us.
Right about that time, a shooting star went across the night sky. My light went out and the room started to smell suspiciously like salt water.
" What's happening?" my sister asked.
Suddenly we were spat out into a body of water making a very loud, very wet splash. When we surfaced, our eyes were stinging from the salt in the water and we noticed a ship next to us. Well, less than a ship really. Soon the passengers footsteps on the 'ship' could be heard coming in our direction. When they peered over, I noticed the familiar faces of Jack's crew.
" Who are you lasses?" the one in the middle asked.
" I'm Allison, this is my sister Caitlin, and that's my best friend Erin." I explained.
" Well I'm Captain Jack Sparrow!" He said proudly.
" This is Arabella Smith over here, that's Jean Magliore and Tumen on the left, the blonde one is Fitzwilliam P. Dalton the third, and that nasty-cat-thing over there is Constance, Jean's so called sister-turned-cat." He continued.
" It's nice to meet you all." I said.
" Um, do you guys mind getting us out of this water, please?" Erin asked.
" Of course we don't mind. Let's haul 'em out, mates." Jack said.
When they pulled us out, we took in the surroundings. It was amazing, but in a weird sort of way.
" So, where are ye from?" Arabella asked.
" We're from the Fu…." My sister started to say when I slapped my hand over her mouth.
" Fuji Islands. We're from the Fuji Islands." I finished for her.
" How did you end up here, there must be an explanation?" Fitzwilliam asked.
I hesitated. Then I looked at the girls with a "follow my lead" look.
"We fell off a cliff." I said.
The girls looked at me and Erin asked, " We fell off a cliff?"
I nudged her with my elbow and gave her the evil eye.
She saw me and quickly re-thought her response. " Oh, duh, we did fall off a cliff. I remember now, it just went blurry."
" We were being by a rabid dog." My sister said, speaking up.
" Really, what happened?" Tumen asked.
" I think we made him mad when we threw the rock at him." Erin said.
"Ok, we, ya'll threw the rock at him." I said blaming it on them.
" How were we supposed to know he was rabid?" Caitlin questioned.
" I don't know!" I replied.
" We weren't the only stupid ones, you tripped and pulled us off the cliff." Erin said, getting even.
" But you guys started it!" I yelled.
" Ok girls, let's not argue." Fitzy said, flirtingly.
I mentally puked. Oh my gosh, Erin actually smiled at him, ewwww!
" Do you want us to take you back?" Jack asked.
Erin and Fitz looked disappointed. " No we're fine. We were getting bored there anyway." I said, Erin and Fitz's faces lit up again.
I don't even know how we would get back anyway. Might as well just savor the moment.
" As much as I would love to learn more about our new crewmates, we need to find out what's up with that ship there." Jack said.
Hope you enjoyed it! I made it look as not rushed as I could.
