Thanks to Lydia Sparrow, Nausicaa of the Spirits, and TheRandomChickenOfDOOM for reviewing the first chapter! Here's chapter two!
Time accelerated to see that I was dressed in clothes like Jack's, running from some soldiers. I ran until there was a dead end, that's when they caught me.
I then recognized a man dressed in navy blue uniform stepping up to me with handcuffs in his hands as none other than James Norrington. He clapped the cuffs on my wrists.
"Antoinette Marcelle, you are under arrest for stealing food, piracy, and treason against the king." He said. "Only fifteen years old and you're a criminal."
"What can I say, mate?" My former self said in a strong cockney accent. "I'm a rebel."
"Right…" Norrington replied. "You are sentenced to six years in jail."
"Pssh," I scoffed. "You call that a punishment?"
"Or would you rather have a short drop and a sudden stop?"
"Uh, no I'm fine with the sentence." They escorted my former self to the Port Royal prison.
"How the bloody hell did I end up like this?" I asked.
"You ran away from your uncle to Port Royal where you went into piracy." Tia Dalma replied.
"That sounds like the girl I know," Jack said.
Time then moved forward to reveal that I was sitting in a jail cell with men in a neighboring cell reaching through the bars saying, "Come closer girl, we don't bite." (Reference to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest)
"If you dare lay a hand on my wife, you low-lives, I swear that you'll wish you never messed with Captain Jack Sparrow." I heard Jack snarl, but he knew he couldn't change the past.
"If you keep on flirting with me, I'll kick your derrière." I said. I then got a clever idea. My former self took out a nail file and started filing at the bars so I could get out.
"I would've never done something like this when I was in high school." I said. "This is the complete and total opposite of me!"
"But it's the woman I ended up loving," Jack said, bouncing his eyebrows and giving that look that suggested that he wanted to make out.
"Just keep on watching, you romantics." Tia Dalma said, not amused by Jack's gesture.
Time went on to see that I was running from soldiers again and the soldiers were yelling, "She escaped! Get her!" But I luckily escaped by hiding behind a tree.
I heard myself say, "I gotta change my life around."
"This is a turning point in your life, Antoinette." Tia Dalma said. "Jack, you will soon come into play in Antoinette's life."
"Good," Jack said. "because I was wondering when the heck I'd show up."
