AN: So I was in the middle of writing some Sleeping Hook drabbles when I got sick for a few days, I feel better now and my muse is now determined to do some Mad Sleeping Hook. OT3 for the win. The story's inspired by Sophie (her tumblr is: xxrouxx), after she made this awesome graphic series, the World Hopping Pirates (You can also view her graphics in her tumblr). This is really short because it's only a prologue, and it's more on exchanging dialogues with Jefferson and Hook. Anyway, I do hope you like it! :)

Disc. I do not own OUAT, ABC does. I do own the story but as I've said, the idea came from Sophie.

Prologue

When a ship sails across the ocean, the waves usually crash against its hull and rudder as if a rhythm was being followed. Some say that the ocean sounds so tranquil, serene; music to the ear of others. Unfortunately, this ship is different. The ocean's waves collide with the ship, sounding off-beat and far from music. It makes the ocean seem more noisy than relaxing. It was obviously not the best ship for a pirate or two to go on a journey. But sometimes, others are left with no choice.

"Had I known we were going on a long expedition, I would have stolen a better ship." Jefferson stood on the Quarterdeck, grumbling at the heavy bumps the ship would encounter.

A man not so far from him looked through the spyglass, not bothering to look at his first mate. "Well perhaps if you weren't so kind –"

"Killian, I was being careful! Besides, I wouldn't want to ruin the trust of Sparrow." Jefferson said as he shrugged his shoulders.

Satisfied with the view his eyes have seen, Killian brought his spyglass down and faced Jefferson. "As he would say, there should be a 'Captain' there somewhere."

"But he's not here, he won't be able to hear it and –"

"I was actually referring to me. But anyway, he's a pirate and pirates treat each other with respect. On rare occasions. Also, did it not occur to you that he might recognize his own ship, which you stole, if we happen to bump into each other?"

Jefferson opened his mouth, ready to throw a comeback but he stopped midway, "I hadn't really thought of that."

The other pirate rolled his eyes at the idiocy of his co-pirate. "I should've known."

"He has plenty of ships anyway, I'm sure he wouldn't mind me stealing the ugliest of them all."

"How'd you get this ship out of the bottle again?" Curiosity struck Killian.

"Simple. All you need is a crossbow, an hourglass, three goats; a man who knows how to play the trumpet, and another one who can go like this." Jefferson waved his fingers as if trying to do magic but hopelessly failing.

Now Killian wasn't sure whether Jefferson was lying or not but he decided not to further ask any questions because his assumptions about Jefferson being crazy just might be proven true.

"So where exactly is our destination and what are we going to do there?"

Jefferson's question made Killian smile. It's been awhile since the both of them went on an adventure, and with his eyes on the prize, they just might be able to go on an adventure of a lifetime.

Killian smiled at his mate, his smile showing what evil plan he has schemed in his mind.

"We're going to the Kingdom of Sands. And we're off to kidnap the Sleeping Beauty."

AN: And you've reached the end of the prologue! Yes, I added Jack Sparrow because he's awesome and I felt like I just had to. I hope you guys enjoyed it, despite my lack in writing skills! ( I need a lot of practice, I know.) If you guys have any comments/suggestions/constructive criticism, feel free to leave a review or you can always drop an ask on my tumblr (strangelydelusional).
