The sky was a dark black and blue, and the day was going to be filled with a really bad storm. At first the Captain thought the ship could make it to it's destination but the Captain realized it wouldn't when rain started to pound down. Lost in thought though, the Captain forgot to tell the crew that they would make a stop.
"Captain?" asked the Captain's first mate Lilly and heard worry in her voice.
"What be the matter?" the Captain asked.
"The storm," is all she says, knowing the Captain will catch on.
"Oh I forgot to say," the Captain just says and turns around from looking at the storm, the Captain looks at the crew and is proud of their hard work and decides to reward them. "Mates!" The Captain shouted and everyone stopped what they were doing for the moment to look at their leader. "Since the storm is so bloody horrible I've decided to dock at the nearest port which is a few miles north but only until this bloody storm is over," The Captain stopped to look at the crew making sure they were dead silent for their Captain to finish. "We're going to Tortuga! So get a move on you bloody scallywags!"
Cheers filled the air as the crew went hard to work. The crews favorite city was Tortuga, and as much as the Captain hated the place, had to admit the rum there was the best.
The Captain and the crew docked The Red Throttle about thirty minutes later and already the storm was going away. The Captain questioned whether or not to stay because of the crew. Maybe we should stay for half an hour for getting the supplies and set sail, you think, but yet the crew has been working hard and need a break...Hmm... Turning around, the Captained faced the crew made up with about an even number of both men and women. "Mates," they looked toward their leader, dead silent for their Captain to speak. "Well the storm is clearing up and I have decided..." The crew looked nervous surely hoping they could stay for a few hours or days, if lucky, "Because you all have been at hard work and listening to me without reason or question...we will stay for two days tops unless we need to go early of course." The crew cheered. "Now go have some fun." The crew headed down the gangplank except Roger as he knew he was going to watch the ship as the crew and their Captainwent out and about.
"Captain we have need of some supplies," Roger said.
"Which ones?"
"We need food, gunpowder and rum."
"Alright. I'll head out, buy the supplies and have the stores men bring them here. If anyone that is not a stores man with supplies or part of the crew comes up to my ship and tries anything, you get me with the signal and do not leave this ship. Savvy?"
"Aye."
"Good I'll come back with some rum for ya Aye?"
"Thank You Captain "
The Captain stepped down the gangplank and looked up to the many men and women staring.
Well why should they not? The women here are always in dresses and never see a female in any other kind of clothing... most of the time. And it is the same with the men in this town. All the men here ever see is whores in dresses. Unless they know me of course.
Men and women stared after her as she walked pass them and she starts getting annoyed. She turns around the corner to a popular local tavern and walk inside, opening the door rather roughly enough for it to slam behind her after getting inside. Everyone was looking at her in a rather scared manner. Why should they not be scared of me?
Oh bugger how am I going to get me crew off me back. I never told them to save me from Davy Jones . And yet they save me ,bring me to Tortuga and for what? Just to yell at me and tell me what a bloody idiot I am. Well, at least they helped me kill Barbosa...again.
"Captain?" Gibbs says.
"What?"
"Umm so exactly how are you gonna deal with Davy Jones? I just mean that you can't go onto sea 'til we figure out where Davy Jones heart is, get it, and then have the power to get Davy himself to call the Kraken off Will and you."
"Gibbs, how many times do I have to tell you that I dunno know? Huh? I'm tryin' to think about it but if ya keep on asking me I won't be able to think."
"Aye sir...sorry."
At that moment there was a huge slam and everyone looked at the door dead silent. He looked up realizing it was a women, a beautiful woman with long black hair, brown eyes, thin and tall in a black shirt with straps on her shoulders holding it up, the top of her breasts barely showing, black pants down below a couple inches of her shirt showing a little bit of her stomach, she had two belts on, one red the other black, black gloves on her hands, and she had on black high heeled boots. She also had weapons, a pistol and a sword. Her face had no make up. Jack recognized her at once for who she was. Oh Bloody Hell! Not Her.
She started walking down everyone still looking at her, especially the men. But then again why wouldn't they? He heard a man ask her who she was. But all of a sudden a group of men and women went around her as if protecting her. Why would they do that? They can't know her. Can they?
"Mates! Go drink your rum, I'll be fine," she says.
Surprisingly they did as she told them. Dressed like that and looking like that you won't be, not with the scum in here.
"The name's Jones, Captain Aila Jones! Captain of The Red Throttle," she said with a seductive voice. His jaw dropped. "Now does anyone have a problem with that?" She said in a threatening tone. Everyone looked scared and backed away, even the men. She smiled, and began walking to the bar. She can't be, that wasn't her name when I met her. Did she change it? She must of. Jacks thoughts were interrupted by Gibbs.
"Jack isn't that-"
"Aye Gibbs it is."
"But how did she become Captain Aila Jones the most fearsome female pirate of the Caribbean?"
"I dunno but lets go find out aye?"
"Aye Captain, lets."
Aila had wanted to laugh when she saw everyone's expression when she had said her name. Everyone looked scared. She started walking to the counter to get some rum for Roger.
"What can I get you miss?" Said a scrawny blonde barmaid.
"Four rums in the bottle, and don't call me miss."
"Oh, um okay, sorry Captain Jones," she got out four rum bottles. "Four shillings please."
Aila handed her eight and said "Four for the rum and four for you as a tip."
"Thank you Captain!"
"No Problem."
Aila turned around heading for the door and saw Captain Jack Sparrow the last person she
expected to see and the last person she wanted to see. So she ran out quickly before he saw her.
A few minutes later she was with Roger handing him his rum. He started giving her four shillings but refused to take them.
"No Roger these are on me."
"Well thank you Captain, did you get the supplies yet because that was pretty fast? Unless you have some kinda superpower for speed."
Aila laughed. "No I'm gonna get them before we leave actually. Well I'm off yet again. I need to find the information that we need."
"Aye Captain I know, good luck with that!"
She headed down the gangplank only to find Jack Sparrow and Gibbs at the bottom. As if they were waiting for her. Aila walked to Gibbs and said, "Well hello Mr. Gibbs long time no see." She laughed and gave him a hug as they were great friends.
"Nice to see you…?" His face scrunched up as he tried to figure out what to call her now.
"Aila, she replied smiling at him.
She saw Jack from the corner of her eye looking at her with a wide smile. "Aren't you going to say hello to me at all?" He said in a cocky tone.
She slapped him hard and said, "Hello Jack." Gibbs started laughing but stopped as Jack gave him a deadly look.
"What the bloody hell was that for?" Jack said while rubbing left cheek.
"What the bloody hell do you think it was for?" When he didn't reply you said, "That was for the last time I saw you as I am sure you remember!"
"Oh."
"So why the name change?" Gibbs said changing the painful subject.
"Oh well Aila Jones is my legal name but I wanted to be called by the name you knew me by so
people wouldn't find out who my father is, and Lumos is my mother's maiden name so I used that."
"I see. And you're the fearsome Captain of The Red Throttle as well eh? Impressive lass.
There are a lot of men out there to get ya, ya know that? Well I'm sure they won't hurt ya only because yer rumored to be a better swordsman-"
"Swordswoman," she corrected Gibbs.
"Aye! Swordswoman than any woman pirate and most of the men as well."
"Sounds about right. Although it still doesn't stop them from tryin to kill me know does it?"
"Aye."
"Wait a minute!" Jack said rather afraid.
"What?" Aila asked in a pissed of tone that he was actually willing to talk to her after what he did some years ago.
Jack looked at her with curiosity and asked "Aila, why did you want to keep your legal last name to yourself?" Gibbs looked at her also with a look of curiosity.
Jack spoke before she could even try to. "You're Davy Jones daughter aren't you?"
