PART 1: The start of their own adventure
++++++++++++
"Madeleine!!! We've been waiting for you the entire morning!!!" Shouted Elizabeth as she furiously knocked on Madeleine's door. It was already 9am. It's been an hour since she and Will have finished preparing a special breakfast for their only daughter's 16th birthday. And of course, they couldn't start the celebration without her.
Young Madeleine sleepily turned to her side in bed as she slowly opened her eyes. She gave out a small yawn as she pushed the covers off of her. The light that shone through her seaside window radiated against her eyes, causing her to cover them for a while.
"Can't I get one more hour of sleep? It's my birthday after all." She groaned.
Madeleine found it difficult to sleep the night before. It was because she was so excited that her parents have invited Uncle Jack along for her birthday celebration. Oh how she loved her Uncle Jack. Unlike her parents, Jack always longed for adventure, just like her.
Suddenly, thoughts of being with her Uncle Jack again filled her mind. Her eyes suddenly opened wide with excitement as she made her way in front of the mirror in her room. She smiled at her reflection as she saw it staring back at her.
"You're definitely going to get your adventure today, whether mother likes it or not!" She said matter of factly.
Her face was so much like Elizabeth's. But her hair was dark brown, just like her father's. She gave a small, hearty laugh, like that of an excited young woman, and rushed to the closet to look for the best clothes she could find.
She rummaged through the clothes she found there, until she pulled out a nice long dress that had nice, small ribbons on its sleeves.
"Good thing mother lets me wear anything I want. I can't believe some mothers actually force their daughters to wear those horrid corsets." She thought to herself.
She ran to the bathroom and quickly freshened herself up with a nice hot bath. After a while, she stepped out of the bathroom fully dressed in her long dress.
"I'm coming, mother!!!" She shouted. She wasn't sure if her mother was still by the door though.
She walked to the door and slowly opened it. And as she'd thought, she didn't find her mother waiting in front of her door anymore. "Looks like she's already gone downstairs. I hope I'm not late."
She carefully made her way down the stairs. And as she was heading down, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"MADDIE!!!" Shouted the proud Captain Jack Sparrow. He was standing by the foot of the stairs with his hand on the hilt of his sword.
"Uncle Jack!!!" She shouted back, her eyes filled with so much joy. She loved the sight of him. She loved how he always walked around in his pirate garb, and how he always carried around his pistol and sword. Whenever she looked at him, it was as if he always had the sea by his side.
Madeline quickly ran down the stairs and threw her arms around her beloved uncle.
"You came!!!" She said.
Jack smiled back at the young woman in front of him "Of course I came! I wouldn't miss this for the world! So, have your parents still decided on whether you can take a short trip with me on the Black Pearl?"
Madeleine suddenly got a worried look on her face. "Well ---"
"Sorry, old friend. But the sea is still too dangerous for her." Will stepped out from the dining room area with his hands on his waist. A smile formed on his lips as he looked at his dear friend.
Jack turned towards Will and waved a hand at him. "Aaah, William. You're always stuck up as always. If you keep your kids cooped up in this house for too long, they'll turn out like you!"
Will's eyebrows furrowed. "Hey!" He said.
Madeleine gave out a small chuckle as she saw her father's reaction. "He's right, father. After all, it is my birthday. And Jack is a trusted friend after all. You've been friends with him even before I was born. You know he'll take good care of me."
Will waved a finger at her daughter. "And that is why I don't want you hanging out with him! Because I know what he's like!!!" He said in a joking way.
Maddie rolled her eyes and sighed.
"Aahh.Enough of this." Will said. "After all, we still have a nice birthday breakfast to enjoy." He motioned his hand towards the dining area. "Shall we?"
"We shall!!!" Jack shouted. "Come on, Maddie." He said. But before she could take a step, he leaned close to her "Don't worry. I'll see if I can convince your parents to let you come along with me one of these days." He smiled and winked at her.
A smile formed on her lips as she nodded. She really couldn't wait to sail the seas with her Uncle Jack's honorable pirate crew. Not only did she look forward to seeing new lands, but she also looked forward to being in the company of Anamaria. She loved how free that woman was. In fact, she wanted to be so much like her.
But her thoughts of adventures suddenly came into a halt as she felt a grumbling feeling in her stomach. She was definitely hungry. And a good, hearty breakfast was really what she needed at the time.
+++++++++++++++++
An hour after breakfast..
+++++++++++++++++
Jack, Will, Elizabeth, Maddie, and her 7 year old brother, Micheal were sitting around in the living room as Jack and Will kept each other up-to- date with what's been going on with them nowadays.
"So, Jack, how's the pirate life going?" Will was sitting on a chair adjacent to Jack who was sprawled on the couch. Jack comfortably sat there with a rum-filled glass in his hand.
"Well, business had been quite slow nowadays. As you know, Will. I only, well, 'gather resources' from military vessels. And military vessels haven't been using sea routes for almost a week! It's terrible, I tell ya! I miss the thrill of boarding ships and scaring guards out of their wits!"
Will sighed and leaned back against his chair. "Perhaps it's time you give up on the pirate life, old friend. After all, you already have enough fortune to last you and your crew for a lifetime."
Jack leaned his upper body forward and rested his elbows on his knees. "Will Will Will. You know what they say --- once a pirate, always a pirate."
Will just smiled as Jack said that. He knew nothing could ever change Jack's life of piracy. He's just glad that Jack wasn't one of those pirates who killed and plundered everyone and anything they could get their hands on. In fact, he was happy to have Jack as a friend ---- even if he regularly got him and Elizabeth in trouble every now and then.
Madeleine suddenly made her way to the couch and sat beside her uncle Jack. She wrapped an arm around his shoulder and turned to her father. "So father, have you already agreed to let me sail with Uncle Jack in the Black Pearl?"
She looked at her father with the best pitiful, puppy dog eyes that she could come up with. Jack also looked at Will, as if trying to convince him to let her go aboard the Pearl.
"He must agree with me!!! He must!!! It's my 16th birthday today! I'm sixteen! I'm not a child anymore!" She thought to herself. "If he doesn't let me, then I'll just die!!!"
Will sighed and looked at the two in front of him. There was a short moment of silence until Will opened his mouth to speak.
"No." He said sternly. "I'm sorry, Madeleine, but it's just not safe out there. Not only that, but you're still not old enough to handle the real world --- especially Jack's world."
Madeleine's face was suddenly filled with sorrow and frustration. Her eyebrows furrowed and her lips remained half-open as if she didn't know what to say.
She just stood up and looked at her father. "Why do you always have to keep me locked up in here?! You and mother had the adventure of your lives when you were my age! Why can't I go out and have my own?!".
Will opened his mouth and reached out to her. But before he could say anything, the young woman quickly ran up the stairs and headed straight to her room. The last thing they heard was the loud sound of a door slamming shut.
Elizabeth quickly stood up and looked at Will. "I'll talk to her." She said.
"No. Let's just leave her be for a while." Will said with a worried look on his face.
Jack stood up and placed a hand on Will's shoulder. "You're being too hard on the girl, William. Remember, she has YOUR blood running through her veins. Sooner or later, she'll be out in the world whether you like it or not."
Will just looked back at Jack, still worried about her daughter.
++++++++++++++++++
Maddie slammed the door behind her and locked it. She didn't want to offend her parents, especially her father, but she just couldn't stand being treated like a child anymore. She pulled off her dress and threw it on the floor as she made her way to the closet.
"So they think they can just keep me in here forever?! I don't think so!" She rummaged through her closet to find new clothes to wear. But this time, she was looking for traveling clothes in particular.
If her parents weren't going to allow her to go out on a short adventure, then she would find a way to go out by herself. Yes --- she was going to escape.
Maddie pulled out a beige long-sleeved shirt and brown pants. She held them in front of her and smiled. "Well, these will be enough for the day. After all, I won't be gone for that long."
With a smile on her face and excitement pulsing through her veins, she quickly put them on. First the shirt, then the pants. She tucked the shirt in the waist of her pants and fastened it with a thick belt. She stepped in front of the mirror and marveled at her unlady-like apparel.
"Aahhh, I can already smell adventure in the air." She said.
She looked at the window on the sea-side wall of her room and the smile on her lips grew wider. That was going to be her ticket to freedom.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
The young man held the telescope against his eye and looked at the land that his boat was heading to. "Port Royale!!! At last!!!" He gave out a small laugh and quickly pulled the telescope away. He pushed it into its shorter form and stuck it in his pocket. He'd been wanting to visit Port Royale ever since he got his boat a week ago.
He knew everyone had already been to Port Royale. In fact, going to such a place wasn't already a big deal to most of the sailors and pirates he'd met. But for him, it was one huge step.
He excitedly ran to his small cabin and looked at the map that was laying flat on the table. He looked at the location of Port Royale and placed a finger on it. "I'm definitely on the right track!". Excitement filled his every breath.
The young man ran back to the main deck and headed to the wheel of his small boat. "Ah.I can smell it now. The smell of a new land, and new things to explore!" He smiled as the wind blew against his form. Oh how he loved the sea. Too bad his mother wasn't a big fan of it.
He stood there, gazing at the land before him as his boat grew closer and closer to it with every passing minute. The young man was quite tall, around 5'11". He had blue eyes and wavy brown hair that was tied back in a tight pony tail.
He wore a long, brown coat with a dark red vest, white long-sleeved shirt and brown pants underneath it. Despite the fact that his clothes were reminiscent of a pirate's, he still didn't look like one. On his back was a small bag, with its strap wrapped around his upper body and a sword lay fastened on the left side of his belt.
After half an hour of sailing, his boat slowly made it's way towards one of Port Royale's docks. His eyes lit up as he grinned at the sight of the protruding harbor that was only a couple of meter away from his ship. "I'm really here!" He said with excitement. "I wonder if I'll run into some very well-known pirates." He chuckled.
As soon as the boat made its way beside the harbor, he quickly grabbed its rope and jumped onto the dock. After landing on his feet, he quickly tugged on the rope and tied it up on one of the wooden poles on the side of the dock's platform.
"Excuse me, sir." A stout man dressed in fine-looking clothes slowly approached him.
The young man stood up straight and brushed his hands off as he turned towards the stout man who just approached him. "What may I do you, fine sir?" He asked. He might as well leave a good impression on his first encounter in Port Royale. If there was one thing adventurers like himself should avoid, that was trouble. And the man who just approached him seemed important. The kind of person he had to be nice to.
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's your first time being here in Port Royale, aye?"
"Aye." He answered.
"Hmm. Well you see, it's a shilling to tie up your boat at the docks and I'll need to have your name."
"Oh." The young man raised his eyebrows. "Yes."
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a coin. He handed it to the harbormaster. "As for the name, it's Hector Donovan."
The harbormaster placed the shilling into his money pouch and smirked. "Well, Hector. For whatever business you have here, I do hope you enjoy your stay."
"Thank you." He said with courtesy. He then made his way to the main land of Port Royale.
