Pirates of the Caribbean
I was not known of the fact of pirates until I was a young woman. Sure, I had seen pirate ships from time to time when I was younger,but I never knew that they were something more than just ships sailing out into the Atlantic. The only scary thing was that I knew one of them. His name was Jack Sparrow. He had come to the island when I was fairly young. I had no idea back then that he was a pirate. I guess it was because that my father never told me, or it just because he was simple afriad. Not that it mattered to me or anything.
It's been ten years since then. My name is Nicole. I'm 16 years old with a mind of my own. And that's only because I grew up in a family of warriors. That's what we do. Protect the island and the inoccent people that dwell on this island in the Caribbean. To us this place is not a curse. It's a resting place so we can get on with our lives. I haven't seen Jack in a while. I've pretty much forgotten about him. And that's only because he hasn't been to the island in ten years. But it's not that I care or anything. I don't even know if I want him back or not.
"Nicole! Get over here!"it was my sister Kiya.
"What is it?"
"Look out onto the bay."
I did. And what I saw was no ordinary ship. It looked like Jack's ship. I can't be,I thought. "Do you think it's really him?"
"You never know. Might as well check it out."
"No. I'll wait until the come on to shore. They might be the samurai again." Eight years ago our village was attacked by samurai. I was stupid enough to go down to the shore and greet the samurai like they were just wondering pirates that needed rest like so many others. But I was wrong. The samurai attacked our village that night and almost everything was destroyed. Many people made it,and some did not. My father was one that did not make it out of there alive. I still couldn't believe that he stayed in the building while I was to run out carrying my baby sister Kiya. But now he was dead. And it was all my fault.
I went down to the bay to see a man standing by the flag of the ship. I guess he was getting ready to land. But I took one look at his face,made me think. Who was this man? Why was he here? What did he want? But then I recognized the ship. It was the one Jack had been on ten years ago. Or so I thought. No. It can't be him,I thought. I just can't be.
But then I looked up again. There was another man with him. He was a handsome young man who looked about to be fairly in his 20s. But I didn't care about that. I just wanted to know if that man was actually Jack.
I then saw the man look down at me and smile. Oh god,I thought. It's got to be him. No man would smile at me like that and I knew it.
I then went down to the shore so I could help the men so they could land safely. The tide was about to about go out again and that can be a real danger to most people. Especially went trying to land on a island such as this one that was so small. When we were done I waited to see if the man was really Jack so I wouldn't be fooling with myself. My horse Yakul started to back away from me. But I wouldn't let him. I wanted to show him that I wasn't afriad of this man. And that was only because I knew him.
"Yakul,c'mon. It's going to be alright. I promise you."
He finally took a chance and started to walk back to me.
"I guess he doesn't remember me,"said a voice behind me. "At least not as much as you do that is."
I turned around. The man that was speaking to me looked much older than the Jack I had met so many years before. But that didn't matter to me. "Jack?"
"And I thought most people would be afraid of pirates such as me."
But I couldn't help it. I ran into his arms. I was so happy to see him again.
"Nice to see you again too."
"Where have you been? It's been ten years since I last saw you."
"Come. We have much to talk about."
