"James, will we arrive in time?" Asked a tall woman with dark brown, almost black, hair and brown, almost mahogany colored eyes. The woman was Rosalie Sparrow of London.
Commodore Norrington turned to look at her. "Rose, we will arrive on time."
"I hope so." She continued. "It would be highly improper to arrive at Will and Elizabeth's wedding late."
Commodore smiled inwardly. He knew Rose was only nervous because she was about to meet his former fiancée. "Rose, please calm down." He said, leaving his post to join her by the starboard rail. "There is no reason for you to be nervous." He turned her head so that their eyes met. "Seeing Elizabeth again won't make me love you any less."
Rose's eyes darted away from his. " James, there's something I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
"I'm the-" But she was interrupted by young the captain at the wheel. "The harbor is dead ahead!"
Commodore looked at Rose as if to say "I'd talk more, but I'm needed." Then he walked to the captain and took the wheel.
"Will! Will Are you in there? Father wants to know if you the suit he bought you fits. Will?!" Elizabeth yelled knocking on his door.
"Yes, it fits fine, but the hat's feather."
"What?" "I can't find it." "Oh! That's because it doubles as a quill. I show you how to lock it into place if you will unlock the door!" "I have to find the quill first." "Open the door and I will help you!"
The Interceptor II sailed smoothly into the harbor. Rose had moved to the bowsprit. She had perched herself on it, sitting precariously overt he water. Commodore saw her. "Rose, please don't do that." he handed the wheel off again. "Rose you need to e careful. This is not a merchant ship. It's much larger and that is dangerous." Rose gave him a look of mock contempt. "Fine, I'll get down." she stepped of the bowsprit. "You know that is what attracted me to you rose. Your bold nature and fearless attitude. I like that in a woman. You are also very intelligent and beautiful. Don't kill yourself by doing something stupid." Rose smiled, "like sitting on the bowsprit of a ship?" "Exactly." Commodore Norrington replied. The ship docked in the harbor at noon. Commodore and rose were met by a carriage at the peer. The driver a black native said he had been sent by the governor to pick them up. Commodore shuffled awkwardly sideways trying to conceal a box he was carrying behind his back. Rose took no notice; she was too busy looking around her at the strange, new place. Commodore had the box under the seat in the carriage before rose got in. "Rose, the ceremony starts at two!" he called. Rose was brought back from her spellbound state and stepped into the carriage.
"Okay the guests will be arriving soon, so start placing some food out on the tables." Governor Swann told some of the maids he had brought to the island's small cabin from his house. Will and Elizabeth entered the room. Elizabeth was dressed in a fancy white gown while Will wore a brown tunic, a feathered hat and The governor smiled. "You two look absolutely stunning." "Thank you, governor Swann, "Will said nodding and shaking the governor's hand. Elizabeth smiled back to her father. She was glad he hadn't made her were a corset and was constantly showing her gratitude. A younger maid opened the churches mahgagony door. Rose and Commodore Norrington had arrived. Both Elizabeth and Commodore felt a slight shock. To Elizabeth it felt strange knowing that just a year ago, She had been engaged to that man. The same went fore Commodore. Will was shocked to see that commodore had found a new girlfriend and Rose was completely shocked to see to see her boyfriend's former fiancée. "Commodore Norrington! Back from London, I see! And who is this, may I inquire?" the governor asked cheerfully. Norringotn smiled and took rose's hand. "This is my girlfriend, Rosalie sparrow. Her father is Howard Sparrow, captain of the Northern Wind of the British navy." The governor looked her over as did will and Elizabeth. There was something familiar about her but none of them could quite put their finger on it. "Rose, I left something in the carriage. You wait here. I'll be right back." Commodore left the church and went back to the carriage. "So tell me where is old Howard right now?" asked Governor Swann. "He's been sent overseas to help put down the revolt of the colonists in America.He is part of a blockade in Boston Harbor." Rose answered. "I'd heard the colonists were angry. Do you really think they will break away? From the Crown?" Elizabeth asked. "They're pretty serious. I don't doubt they will make and attempt but they will fail against the British army." Rose replied. "Does your father even know you're together?" Will inquired. "No." Rose answered. "But I've told my mother to inform him in her next letter." Then rose suddenly became interested in the sword Will was carrying as if entranced by it. "May I see your sword?" she asked. Will gladly agreed. He drew the sword from its sheath. Rose took it and held it gingerly on her finger. "This sword has the best balance of any sword I've ever seen." She turned it, watching the light reflecting off of the blade. "Do you mind if I try it?" she asked. Will nodded. Rose turned to the closet maid and asked if she would bring her a turnip. The maid hurried off to fetch it. She returned quickly. Rose took the turnip and handed it to Will. "When I say now, toss turnip into the air." Commodore returned just in time to see Will toss the turnip. With the speed and agility of a snake, Rose slashed upward through the turnip then again through its side before it hit the ground. Commodore, Will, Elizabeth, and the Governor applauded her skill. "Where did you get this?" Rose asked, handing the sword back to Will. "I made it." He answered. "It's a find sword." "Rose, we'd best get ready Commodore said he produced the box from behind his back. "I bought this for you to wear." Rose turned and approached him and took the box. Inside was a red velvet dress with black-laced corset was also included. Rose's face lit up like a candle. "Oh thank you, James!" she exclaimed, embracing him. "I'll go put it on right away!" Rose dashed to the church's powder room followed by a maid Elizabeth told to go with her. "She's very energetic!" the governor commented.
Rose lifted the dress from the box it was even more stunning now that she could see the dress s in its entirety. She allowed the maid to assist her in putting son the corset. Afterward, she put on a small hoop skirt, and then the dress. She then pulled up her long dark chocolate colored hair in a very fancy bun with a few card tumbling down in the front. The maid whose name was Nancy picked up the box. A pure silver locket fell out. Rose picked it up. She held it in her hand and admired the find detail on the locket's front. Then she opened it. Inside was a small painting that feathered Commodore and herself in stunning detail for the painting's size. She put on the heart shaped locket and went to join her comrades, as the ceremony was about to commence.
The Stormeye was gaining on them. Jack sparrow was doing the best he could to outrun Captain Josey and her Spanish corsairs. ""Tis no good, cap'n! They'll catch us before we reach Port Royal!" one of the crewmembers yelled. Jack suddenly had an idea. The oars on the ship had lain unused and forgotten for over twelve years; the oar holes in the sides of the ship had been enlarged for cannons. "I need half of the crew to go down below deck and find all the usable oars left on the ship! Open the cannon flaps and row! Half on the side half on the other! Now, go!" The crew raced below deck. Anna Maria handed out the eight oars that were still unusable. She then took charge of keeping the rowers together. Anna tapped on the wall to keep the rowers in time. Those who didn't receive an oar raced back up on deck to help with the sails. Jack smiled. They were picking up speed!
A gathered crowd watched as Will and Elizabeth exchanged vows. Governor Swann was moved to silent tears as he watched his little girl become a Turner. Rose fiddled with the locket around her neck. She meant no disrespect to the bride and groom, but she was sill very nervous withal these people that Commodore Norrington knew and she didn't. It was as if he was bringing her home to his "family", the people of Port Royal, and they were all judging her. They wanted to be sure that she was a fitting mate fore Port Royals's second highest-ranking citizen and highest-ranking military official.
Jack climbed to the crow's nest. He tuned to the south as he watched the Stormeye sinking into the distance. He laughed and turned back to face the north. He's dark brown almost black hair waved in the wind along with his braided two-pronged goatee and clothing. "Now on to Port Royal!" he said. But his high Spirits were shot from the sky. He saw the Stormeye was also picking up speed. Josey had orderd her crew to use the oars on her ship. And unfortunately for Captain Sparrow, Josey had more oars and they were in better condition than his. He climbed back down to the deck then went below. "Anna Maria, you've got to make them row faster!" He yelled. Anna nodded and sped up her rythmatic tapping on the wall. Jack mounted the first stair when he heard the sound that condemned them to being caught. CRACK! Jack turned to see where the sharp, loud sound had come from "Captain, we're putting too much stress on the oars! One just broke! We can't keep this up!" Anna yelled. Jack drew his sword. "Then we'll stand and fight!" "You're daft, Jack!" Anna yelled "We have half the crew they do! They'll overrun us!" "Then I'll strike a bargain with Josey. My surrender for your freedom!" "Jack!" Anna yelled and ran after him as he went back up on deck. "Jack!" Anna said. She grabbed his shoulder turned him around. "You're crazy! They'll kill you!" Jack smiled. "Anna, I'm captain Jack sparrow! I'll escape! Just make sure you leave fast. Port royal is only 25 miles from here. See? It's that little dot on the horizon. Make for it as fast as you can!" Anna nodded and began shouting orders to the crew that was emerging from below deck.
So, what do you think? I'm sorry this first chapter is so slow! There's a battle between Jack and Josey in the next chapter so stick around.
