Okay, this is the first story of three. Obviously, I do not know what's going to happen in the third movie of Pirates, but I'm gonna guess. Anywho, this chapter is going to explain the main character and how she actually ends up in the movie, so here it goes!

Who Doesn't Want An Adventure?

Amanda sat at her desk in her room, doing her homework. She was extremely bored and wishing more than anything that she could be downstairs, watching TV right at that moment. She was not the smartest girl in the world, but she wasn't dumb. Her strong subjects were history and literature. She loved to read and study about one specific thing: pirates.

Pirates had always fascinated her, even as a young girl. Her parents would always take her to pirate museums and sword-fighting shows and she never got bored when she was there. When the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean came out, she was so excited. Not only for the gorgeous Johnny Depp, but the fights, ships, stealing, and bad guys. She saw it with her best friend, Daniel.

Amanda and Daniel had been best friends for a long time. Since they were two years old. They both lived in the same neighborhood in Rhode Island. They were meant to be friends. They finished each other's sentences, they laughed nonstop, and they understood each other completely. A lot of people in their grade thought they were a couple, but it had never been that way. At least not for Amanda.

As Amanda started to finish up her geometry homework, her telephone rang. She picked it up. "Hello?"

"Amanda, you're gonna freak out man." It was Daniel. They talked to each other on the phone for at least an hour daily.

"Dan, I'm doing my homework, what is it?"

"Pirates is on ABC!"

"Are you serious?" cried Amanda.

"Yeah, go watch it right now!"

Amanda's heart sunk. "I can't! I have to do my homework. I've still got a long way to go."

"Screw homework! This is the first time Pirates has ever been on TV. Are you gonna miss that just for some homework?"

Amanda smiled. Dan had always been a troublemaker. Not a serious one, but he still got into trouble a lot at school. He never did his homework or studied, but he was still a pretty smart guy and got B's in his classes. Amanda sighed. "I guess I can do my homework in front of the TV."

"Woot! All right, call me after the movie, okay?"

"Okay, bye." She hung up the phone and gathered her books up to go down to the basement to watch the movie. She walked down the stairs outside her room, and snuck quietly to the basement stairs. She opened the door and ran down. She sat down on the couch and turned on ABC.

"Look, there's a boy, there's a boy in the water!" cried the young Elizabeth in the movie.

Amanda smiled and opened her geometry book. How she wished she could be in the movie. She had always wanted to see what it would be like to be a pirate. It would be the perfect life to live on a ship and sail around the world. No wonder Jack Sparrow loved it so much. Amanda had never had a great adventure. She had never gone on any exotic vacations or almost died or anything like that. She had always wanted to have a real adventure. Pirates had an adventure every day. "Ugh, that would be awesome to be a pirate. If only…" Amanda looked up at the TV wonderingly.

"No, how could I wish for that? It's never going to happen. I'm the biggest nerd in the world, wishing to be sucked into a movie. But how damn cool would that be? Aw man, I wish!" She continued her homework, but kept looking up at the movie every couple seconds or so.

It was the part where the young Elizabeth sees the "Black Pearl" for the first time. Amanda was sitting on the edge of her seat; this part always gave her chills. Her eyes were wide open as she saw the black sails of the cursed ship. Hey eyes caught something in the middle of the screen that wasn't supposed to be in the movie. A small box. "What the hell is that?" She went up to the screen to see if it was a smudge. She rubbed her finger against it, but that made it get bigger. Her heart jumped. "What the-?" It was bright white inside the box and it was very bright. It was about the size of her head now. She looked around her and called her sister's name. "Kristen? Um, something's wrong with the TV!" There was no response. She turned to the screen again and now the box was taking up more than half the screen. She hesitantly lifted her finger and touched the inside of the box. That was a mistake. Her whole hand vanished inside the silvery liquid of the box and pulled her whole body forward. Amanda screamed as she was sucked into the box. She was surrounded by light, falling…falling.

"Amanda! Oh my gosh, Amanda!"

Someone was whispering at her. It was probably Kristen, waking her up. She probably fell asleep while watching the movie. "Wait a minute. I wasn't watching the movie. I was up by the screen and that box…that box!"

"The box!" screamed Amanda and she sat up. The next minute, her mouth was hanging open in surprise.

Dan was standing in front of her, dressed in a servant costume. His long, brown hair was tied back in a ponytail and he looked just as shocked as she did. "Amanda, where the hell are we?"

Amanda stood up and looked at her surroundings. They were in a hallway of a house; a very large house. She recognized it at once as she looked up at the chandelier above the staircase. She turned to Dan. "Oh my gosh, Dan, this is the Swanns' house! We're in Pirates!"

Dan shook his head. "That's impossible! How can we be here? And why are you wearing that?"

Amanda looked down and did not see her gray sweater or jeans anymore. She was wearing a light blue dress with an apron over it. The dress just touched the floor and she was wearing dirty, brown shoes that did not go with the dress at all. She touched her hair and realized that it was up in tight bun. "Dan, I think we're servants."

"Oh great! I'm so glad to be sucked into Pirates to be a servant."

"So you saw a box too?"

Dan nodded with a look of disappointment on his face. "I wanted to come as a pirate, not a servant. This wasn't supposed to happen." He sat down, against the wall.

Amanda sat down next to him. Sitting in the dress was not easy. It fluffed up around her as soon as she touched the ground. The inside of the dress was itching against her leg. She finally got comfortable and said, "I can't believe we're here. I mean, I know it sucks that we didn't come as pirates or anything, but…this is the coolest thing that's ever happened to me." She looked at Dan. He looked back at her and smiled.

"What are you two doing?"

Dan and Amanda looked up at a stern, angry woman standing in front of them. She had gray hair that was also in a tight bun, and she was wearing the same thing as Amanda, except that the dress was gray. They both stared at her, confused.

"Well, don't just sit there! You, girly, you've got to go help Miss Swann change into her dress. And you, you have to help with setting the table downstairs."

They both just kept staring at them. This angered her a lot. "Well, come on then! If you don't do this, I'm going to get fired too! Get up and do your work!" They sprang up and she walked down the stairs, briskly.

They looked at each other for a minute. "Alright, I'll see you…later…I guess," Amanda said.

"Yeah…um…sure." They waved "goodbye" and Amanda walked down the hall to the left. The end door was blocked by two people and Amanda recognized them at once.

It was Governor Swann and one of the maids in the movie that helps Elizabeth get dressed. She came up behind them as Governor Swann was banging on the door of the room. "This is so cool! They don't know what she's doing in there, but I do! She's hiding the medallion right now." After Elizabeth said "yes", he opened the door.

The other maid looked at her and rolled her eyes. Amanda just smiled and did as she did. She walked briskly into the room and opened the shades of her windows. The light almost blinded her. She looked out the window.

Port Royal. It was beautiful. Ships were sailing out in the beautiful, blue bay. The sun was shining and the town was busy with life. She was hypnotized for a moment, until the other maid touched her shoulder.

She whispered at her, "Come on, we've got to dress the princess."

Amanda smiled at her. She had never really liked Elizabeth in the movies, but she wasn't about to be rude to her. This was her only chance to do something really exciting. If she became friends with Elizabeth, she could go with her on the adventure. "Aw snap!" The two maids rushed over to Elizabeth.

Amanda knew this whole scene by heart. She didn't have time to pay attention to Governor Swann and Elizabeth because this corset thing was hard to put on. All the laces and holes were hard to match up. The other maid was doing it like she had done this everyday. And as Amanda thought about it, she probably did do it every day. Once, Elizabeth gasped and looked at the two maids. Amanda couldn't imagine how painful it must be to wear this thing.

Elizabeth then said the famous line. "Well women in London must've learned not to breathe." Amanda had to try very hard not to start giggling. This was the coolest thing that had ever happened to her and it was about to get much better, but she didn't know it yet.

I know this chapter wasn't that exciting, but the next one is going to have Jack Sparrow in it, so it'll be better. I'll try to update it soon. Hope you guys all liked it!
