A/N: Hello and welcome to The Protectors. I hope you enjoy.

The day I found out I was protected by fictional characters was a strange day indeed.

I was walking home from school with my friends Ashley Kennedy and Elizabeth Davis and I had the strange feeling I was being watched. "Do you guys feel like you're being watched?" I asked, they turned and looked at me.

"What are you talking about Ali?" Ashley asked giving me an odd look.

"I feel like I'm being watched." I said

"I think you're going even further off the deep end." Elizabeth smiled. I chuckled

"I suppose you're right." I nodded and we walked home. The three of us live a good distance from the school, but we walk anyway. If you're coming from the direction of the school my house is first, then Elizabeth's then Ashley's. We live in the country; kinda. There's only about five houses on our street.

Anyway, on our way home we were walking in the road, not our smartest idea. Well, a car came up behind us and we didn't hear it because we had our IPods in. Finally when we did hear it, it was too late, Ashley and Elizabeth ran to either side of the road, I just stood there frozen in horror. I closed my eyes and braced myself for the hit and the end. I heard a thud but I was still standing, unharmed. I looked at the front of the car then to the ground, there lay Jack Sparrow, or more importantly JOHNNY DEPP! Whoa wait Johnny Depp! It can't be, but before I could say anything two men who I swear to god were Geoffrey Rush and Mackenzie Crook came and helped him up and ran off. I was still standing there, gawking now. Then Ashley and Elizabeth came and pulled me out of the road. "Did you see what I just saw?" I asked still dazed.

"I-I don't' know. What did you see?" Ashley asked.

"Elizabeth?"

"I saw Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush and Mackenzie Crook. How about you?" She asked. Ashley and I nodded.

"What are we smoking?" I asked and looked at them.

"I-I don't know." Elizabeth said and shook her head.

"What's wrong sweety?" Mom asked at dinner.

"Nothing." I replied to my pizza.

"Something happen on the way from school?" Ron(my step-dad) asked. I ignored him.

"Sweety, what's wrong?"

"Was I dropped on my head when I was a baby?" I asked. "Don't answer Ronald because you wouldn't know."

"Alison Heather Gray-"

"My last name is Shea, not Gray." I said

"Still be nice to your father."

"Step-Father" I corrected.

" Anyway, no deer I don't believe you were, why?"

"I think I'm hallucinating." I replied.

"What do you mean?" Mom asked.

"I almost got hit by a car and instead of me getting hit, Johnny Depp did. Then Geoffrey Rush and Mackenzie Crook came and took him away." Mom walked around the table and checked my temperature.

"You don't have a fever."

"I wasn't the only one who saw it!" I exclaimed "Ashley and Elizabeth did too!"

"Alison, have you been smoking again?" Ron asked.

"Okay, that was a SQUIRREL and I wasn't smoking it. I was turning it on a spit." I said and looked at my pizza.

"Still it did make you hallucinate." Mom pointed out.

"But I haven't been!" I protested.

"Alright, Ron you call Dr. Burbank, Alison just go to your room, do your homework and go to bed." Mom said, I nodded and went to my room.

"God, Lamphere, why'd you have to give me so much homework." I sighed, looked at my math then looked at my stack of science "You too Mrs. Kerr, and Mr. Braunitzer with his packets." I looked at my social studies packet. "Mr. Williams on the other hand gives me no homework. I likes him." I smiled. "Anyway," I went back to my homework.

After I finished my homework I got into my pj's and got into bed. That night I had the strangest dream:

I was standing in an old looking office and a man sat at a desk in front of me. "Ah, Miss. Shea," He looked up "Please take a seat." He waved his hand and a chair appeared and I sat."Now on to business." I raised my hand. "Yes?"

"Why am I here?" I asked

"You are here, under the matter that you were almost hit by a car on the way home from school. Am I correct?"

"Yes, sir."I nodded.

The man chuckled "No need to call me sir, call me Patrick."

I nodded.

"Now your protectors have informed me-"

"Whoa, wait. My protectors?" I was confused out of my toilet plunger hat.

"Yes, Jack Sparrow, Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson, Hector Barbosa, James Hook and Regetti."

"Say what now?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes. You haven't been told?" He asked surprised.

"No, no I haven't."

"Well, let us fix that shall we?" He turned to a speaker."Send in Ronald."

"Yes, sir." A woman said on the other end. And My step father walked in the room, WHAT! Is he doing in my dream?

"Ronald?"

"Oh, hello Alison. You called me sir?"

"Yes. Why didn't you explain this to her?" Patrick asked.

"I didn't think she was ready, sir."

"Not ready? When she came and said she was Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush and Mackenzie Crook you still thought she wasn't ready?" Patrick yelled

"Well I er, um."Ronald stuttered, I raised my hand.

"Yes, Ali?" Patrick asked

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!" If I was in my toilet plunger hat, it would have fallen off by now. I was that confused.

"Well, when you were born you were one of the selected few who got protectors. We took a little look into the future to see who some of your favorite movie characters were and they got the job." He smiled.

"Why me?"

"Well, we got all the characters together and asked them if they wanted to be your protectors. And they said yes." He chuckled "James even said he'd marry you when you got older, you were so cute."

"Bull-"

"Before you swear, let's ask them ourselves. I'm sorry Jack won't be here, he's still recovering from getting hit by the car." I looked at my hands. "Send in the protectors." Patrick said into the speaker. I looked at him wide eyed, he smiled.
