Prologue:
The call is made"Yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me." Two young girls sang. They were sisters and the daughters of the new governor of Port Royal and on their way to their new home. A man behind them grabbed their shoulders,
"None of that." he said.
"That's enough Mr. Gibbs." Said a Captain by the name of James Norrington.
"But…" The girl on the right said, her hair was a light brown her blue eyes shinning like stars.
"No, mind Captain Norrington." The Governor said.
"But we think it would be exciting to see a pirate." The other one said her hair was an even lighter shade of brown.
"I know…That's what worries me."
"Look!" The first girl exclaimed. "Their, there's a boy in the water!"
"Man over board!" Someone yelled. They pulled in.
"Thank you Christine." He father said, " Will you look after him, see he has all he needs?"
"Yes father." She went over to the boy telling Elizabeth (Her sister) that she'd catch up with her later. The boy had dark brown hair and a kind face, could it be? He seemed so familiar, and so…she didn't know how to explain this new feeling bursting in her heart. All she knew was that this stranger, this boy had to be her other half, the only one who could complete her.
"I heard your soul across the sea." She sang in a lovely child's voice. "I can't believe this moments come, there's so much I want to say, now that I've found you, can you forgive me if I feel this way? We just met, tell me that's okay…"
"Christine! They need you below!" Norrington said.
"Your sister will take over." Her father said.
"Yes sir." Christy said and walked away reluctantly, now light hearted that she had found her other half.
Chapter 1Captain Jack Sparrow:
Christine sat up to the sounds of Elizabeth waking. It had been 8 years sense that day, and not one had passed without Christine remembering that one moment.
"Lizz why are you up so early." She asked.
"Oh, sorry Christy didn't sleep well."
"Elizabeth! Christine!" Their father called. "May I come in?"
"Just one moment!" Lizz called hiding the pendent she wore. Christy rolled her eyes; she never could understand that part of her sister.
Their father came in, "Still in bed at this hour?"
Christy nodded to him smiling wile to maids came in carrying packages. "I have something for you." He said. The boxes opened to revel a cream and blue dresses.
"May we inquire of the occasion?" Lizz asked after a glance at Christy.
"Does a father need a occasion to spoil his two daughters?"
Christy rolled her eyes as they stepped behind screens. There was silence then, "I had hoped you'd ware them to Captain Norrington's ceremony."
Christy poked her head out from behind the screen and said, " I knew it!"
"Komendor Norrington." There was an intake of breath. " Elizabeth, Christine, how's it coming?"
"Hard to say." Lizz said gasping.
"I hear it's the latest fashion in London."
"We'll women in London must have learned not to breathe." Lizz finished.
Finally they were ready to leave. They went down stairs and found a pleasant surprise.
"Will!" Christy exclaimed.
Will smiled, "Miss. Swann and Miss. Swann."
Christy rolled her eyes, her and Will had spent a lot of time together, even if he only had eyes for Elizabeth, and had become good friends. Christy was even helping him try to get Lizz's attention.
He winked at her.
"How many times have we told you call us by our names?!" Lizz asked kindly.
"Just one last time Miss. Swann, as always." Will said, only Christy saw the love in his eyes, it cut her to the heart. Luckily she was able to hold her self in.
"Mr. Turner." Lizz said walking away. Christy shrugged at him and followed her sister and father to their carriage.
Later after the ceremony, James came over. "Elizabeth, may I have a word?" Christy smiled encouragingly and gave her a nudge toward James and watched as they walked away. They made a cute couple, she had to admit. And he was an a nice man, next to Will she could see her self marrying him, but once again she was pushed to the side by Lizz. That was the only thing about her sister that she envied. Was the love Will so dearly wanted to give her.
After she had thought that Lizz fell over the edge. "LIZZ!" Christy ran down to the docks and looked desperately for her sister. A little later, that felt like forever to Christy, a mans head appeared and he had Lizz. Christy let out the breath she'd been holding. He wore a red bandanna and dreadlocks. They were drug back under the water. Another heartbeat later the man had put Lizz on the docks at her feet. The guards took over, "No, breathing, no breathing."
"Move!" The man said and cut the corset handing it to a man wile Lizz choked up water. Their father and James came over.
"Arrest him!"
"Father! Komendor! Do you intened to kill my rescuer?" Lizz asked incredulous.
"I believe a thanks are in order." James said unhappily holding out his hand.
The man took to reluctantly. James pulled his sleeve up to revel a "P" that had been branded on his arm. "Had a brush with the east India trading company, pirate?" Without waiting for an answer he pulled the sleeve higher, "Well, well, well Jack Sparrow is it."
"Captain." Jack said.
"I don't see your ship Captain." James said curtly.
"I'm in the market, as it were." Jack said giving him a half grin.
Christy stifled a laugh as the irons were put on Jack. Lizz ran up to James, "You can't! He saved my life."
"One good deed isn't enough to redeem a man of a life time of wickedness." James told her.
"But it seems enough to condemn him." Jack retorted.
"Indeed."
Christy decided to step in, "Father please, he did save Lizz, why not let him off this once."
They finished with Jack. "Finally." He said and put the chain of the irons around her neck saying, "I knew one of you would warm up to me, Christine, it is Christine?"
"Its Miss. Swann to you!" Lizz yelled.
"Ah, Komendor, my effects please, and my hat. Miss. Swann if you'd be so kind." Jack asked as his effects were put in her arms.
Christy smiled raising an eyebrow. She put his hat on and then the rest, she tightened his belt very tight, if he could play with her she could play with him. "Easy on the boos love."
Christy laughed, "Your despicable."
"Sticks and stones love, I saved Lizzy's life over their, you saved mine, were square." He turned her back around and she said in an amused voice,
"Yea think?"
"Gentlemen…ladies, this is the day you will always remember as the day you almost coat…Captain Jack…Sparrow!" He thrust Christy into the arms of her father grabbed a rope unleashed it bringing a canon down and swung around.
"NOW WILL YOU SHOOT HIM?!" The governor shouted.
"Open fire!" Christy could here Jack yell faintly and saw him jump onto a bridge and run for dear life.
Later found Christy and Lizz in their room. "Tell me again were your going." Lizz said as she watched Christy dressing behind a screen. Christy stepped out now in a plain cotton dress, "I've told you, I'm going to Will's. I told him I'd help him out today at the shop. Cover me will you?"
"Again?!" Lizz demanded, "Pretty soon you'll be as good as him!"
Christy laughed, what lizz didn't know was that she spent time their because it was the only time she got alone with Will and he was the only one who truly understood her. Their was only one thing that she couldn't tell him and that was that she loved him, that was it. "I highly doubt it… Will you please relax?!"
"Oh, come on Christy your day has been as hard as mine if not harder, take a brake I'm begging you."
Christy rolled her eyes at this, "Please, that was nothing, now if you'll excuse me." She went silently down the stairs leaving Lizz very confused.
"Hey Will!" Christy yelled, no one answered, "Hum, must not be back yet." Just then the door opened and Will came in,
"Oh, hi Christy. I thought I heard your voice." His eyes suddenly clouded confused, "What?" He asked moving past her.
She turned around, "What is it Will?"
He merely went over to soothe the donkey that seemed very distressed.
"What's wrong with it?"
"I don't know," he said moving over to his teacher, "Right were I left you." He turned around and saw his hammer, "Not were I left you."
"Will." Christy said looking at a hat she had suddenly recognized and smiled, "I know who it is." Will put out his hand to take the hat but a sword came and slapped him making him move away and face his opponent.
