Title: My Pirate

Chapter 1: A pirate's life for me…

Disclaimer: I own bugger all. Ok?

Summary: Diana Nixon has every thing a 22-year-old girl could wish for; a beautiful home with her parents, and well everything she wants. Except for adventure. So when a pirate ship is spotted hidden in a cove, Diana tries to sneak on to the ship, The Sea Dragon but is caught by the first mate and taken to Captain Harry Groves, a man out for the blood of an old enemy, Captain Jack Sparrow…


Jack stood at the helm of his ship. They were headed for Port Royal. It had been two years since his last visit and Jack was eager to see Will. One, he never thanked him for saving him from the noose. Twice. And two, he'd lost his sword in a raid two weeks ago. Plus he genuinely liked the boy.

DIANA!" Yelled her father.

"What?" She asked.

"Where do you think you're going? Don't you know that a pirate ship has been spotted down in Fishermen's Cove?" he asked her angrily.

"Yes I'm quite aware of that. And I was only going out for a walk." Diana protested.

"Then why are you taking a bag? You're not planning on running away are you?" Asked her mother with a slight note of fear in her voice.

"No, I'm not. And if you must know I was going to go see the horses on my way back and brought some bread for them." She lied.

Yes she did have some bread in the bag along with some trousers, a shirt and a pair of her brother's boots. She was planning on sneaking on the pirate ship and possibly joining the crew.

"Fine be back in time for dinner." Her mother said. She turned to leave.

"Oh and Diana?" her mother called.

"Hm?"

"Don't get caught by any of those pirates." Diana nodded in acknowledgment. And so she left.

Harry started pacing. The crew should have been back half an hour ago. It didn't take this long to collect supplies, or was it guarded heavier than they first anticipated? He sighed. His crew were useless. Well apart from Jo.

Ten minuets later the crew got back. The first mate, Jo Radcliff, brought someone with him. A girl in boys clothing by the looks of things.

"Captain!" He called,

"We have ourselves a hostage!" said Jo.

"Who is she?" Harry asked, quickly approaching the sailor.

"She won't tell us sir." Replied Jo.

"Why is she here?" The captain asked.

"We caught her trying to sneak on to the ship and she requested parley." Jo replied.

"So lass, do you have a name?" The captain asked.

"Diana…Swann." she said remembering her cousin from Port Royal.

"Ah, and you wouldn't happen to be the governor of Port Royal's daughter now would you?" Asked Harry.

"Umm, yes. And if you harm me, then my father will see to it that you swing from the gallows," she said.

"Is that right Miss Swann? Well you'll be happy to hear that not only are we headed for Port Royal, but also we plan on blackmailing your father into handing over every piece of gold, silver and precious stone or metal in exchange for your life. Lock her in the brig." He said laughing. Maybe they weren't so useless after all.

So there you go. First chapter done. Reviews help me write.
