Here we go again!

Chapter Two...

"HEY! YOU TWO!"

"You don't have permission to be aboard there, mate." they said, aiming their guns at Jack as Alkali came down next to him.

"We're sorry, it's just such a pretty boat."

"Ship!" Jack said, correcting Alkali.

One of the men lowerd his weapon and asked, "What's your name?"

"Smith! Or, Smithy, if you like." Jack said, totaly prepared for this question.

"And you, girl?"

"Smith, too. I'm his daughter." Alkali said a little smugly. Jack stared at her repulsed but turned back to the two gentlemen.

"What's your purpose in Port Royal, Mr. Smith?"

"Yeah! And no lies!"

Jack let out a sigh, "Alright then, I confess. It is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, rage, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer our weasly black hearts out!" Jack said.

"I have to follow." Alkali said, acting a little down about that fact.

The guys stared at Jack, "I-I said no lies!"

"I think he's tellin the truth!" the other guy muttered to the first one.

The first guy looked a little flustered, "If he were tellin the truth, he wouldn' a told us!?"

"Unless he knew that you wouldn't believe the truth, even if it was told to you!" Alkali said, smirking. Jack just pointed plainly at Alkali.

O.O

SPLASHY!

Everybody looked over as they heard a faint cry of "ELIZABETH!"

"Will you be saving her then?" Alkali asked her 'father'.

"Why me? What about my new Navy Buddies?" Jack asked in a fake whine.

"I can't swim!"

"Pride of the King's Navy YOU are." Jack and Alkali said in the exact same tone as Jack handed her his stuff, telling her to not loose them.

After he jumped in, Alkali gave them a look of 'you are so stupid' and ran to the docks, holding Jack's stuff.

He hoisted Elizabeth up onto the dock where the Navy men noticed she wasn't breathing.

"MOVE!" he yelled and cut the corset open. Elizabeth coughed suddenly while water escaped from her mouth and she took in some heavy breaths. "Where did you get that?" Jack asked quietly to her.

"On your feet." a deep voice was heard. Alkali raised her eyebrows at the sudden rudeness of the man towards the one who just saved his possible fiancee's live.

"SHOOT HIM!"

"Father! Commodore, do you really intend on killing my rescuer?" Elizabeth asked.

"I believe thanks are in order." he asked Jack while extending his hand in gratitude.

Jack slowly extended his own hand but it was taken suddenly and his sleeve pulled up.

"Had a brush with the East India Trading Company, did we, Pirate?"

Jack grimaced and Alkali whispered, "Smoooooth."

"And who are you?"

"Smith! Or Smithy, if you like! I just got here, my ship I was on exploded. Don't worry, I'm the only survivor. I'm here looking for something to now do with my life since everybody I knew was on that ship!" she said plainly.

Everybody stared at her.

"Sorry, Sir. She's my daughter, a little bit off ever since her mother died! Tragic. Well, if you don't mind, I need to bring her to a doctor!" Jack said, trying to get out of Norrington's grip.

"I don't even know you!" Alkali yelled suddenly and staring at Jack with a frightened look on her face.

"See." Jack said, twirling his finger round his temple.

"Check her." Norington said and a random navy man pulled up her sleeve and noticed there was nothing there.

"HA!" Alkali yelled in Jack's face.

Norrington pushed up the rest of Jack's sleeve and saw the tattoo.

"Well, well. Jack Sparrow, isn't it?" he said, spating at the word Sparrow.

"Captin Jack Sparrow, savvy."

"I don't see your ship, Captain!"

"I'm in the market, as it were."

"He said he'd come to commandeer one."

"Told you he was tellin the truth! These are his sir." he said, pointing at Alkali who was still holding them. Norrington had to wrestle them from her arms to look at them.

"No additional shot, nor powder. A compass that doesn't point north. Hum, and I half expected it to be made of wood. You are without doubt the worst Pirate I've ever heard of!"

"Ah, but you have heard of me!" Jack said happily.

Norrington grabbed him and brought him over to where Gillett had the irons.

"Commodore, I really must protest! Pirate or not, this man saved my life." Elizabeth said, defending Jack.

"One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness!" Norington said.

"Though it seems enough to condemn him!" Alkali said brightly, standing next to Jack.

"Indeed!" Norington said to Alkali.

"Finally." Jack said and wrapped his chains around Elizabeth's neck.

"NO NO DON'T SHOOT!" Gov. Swann yelled.

"I knew you'd warm up to me. Commodore, my effects please, AND my hat!" Jack yelled.

When Norrington did nothing Jack yelled, "Commodore!" and turned to Elizabeth "Elizabeth, it is Elizabeth, isn't it?"

"It's Miss Swann!" she said forcefully.

"Alright, Miss Swann. Be a dear and put them on for me," he said as she was given them. "Come come, we don't have all day!"

As Elizabeth put his stuff on, Alkali (knowing what would happen next) did the casual side switch (from Scrubs, all you Scrubs fans. J.D. did it, but she's just doing it to get to the other side of the dock where she... just wait so I can write it out properly so I don't sound like a bad storyteller, Gosh).

When Elizabeth was finished puting Jack's stuff on him, he spun her around and said, "Gentlemen, m'lady, you will always remember this as they day that you almost," he backed up a little bit, "Caught," still backing up, Alkali readied herself on the edge of the docks, "Captian... Jack... SPARROW!" he yelled and pushed Elizabeth back to the crowd and ran off, Alkali dived into the water, and the Navy men focused on Jack. But only two Navy men figured out Alkali wasn't there. Since Jack said she was his 'daughter' (quote un-quote) they figured they needed to capture her as well.

Alkali (being on the swim team at home) was an excelent swimmer, but didn't have the best lung capacity (but can beat almost anybody at a Holding Your Breath Contest). She popped her head up quickly to take a breath and saw two of the Navy men following her. She screamed and dived back down and swam as fast as she could in boots, a jacket, and with various weapons on her belt.

They managed to catch her ankle and brought her up nearly half a mile away from the docks.

"Come on, girly. You're coming into the fort with us and your daddy dearest." one of them said, smirking so as he did.

O.O

They brought Alkali into the cell and slammed the door after her. Sopping wet, she sat down next to an odd pile of stones. She picked one up and studied it.

"Alkali Sparrow?" somebody asked. Alkali looked up, thinking it weird that they named her Sparrow. Well, everybody did think she was Jack's daughter and she never did put a name to her.

"Yes?" she asked the Navy man who asked her.

"We found this." he said, pulling out her very wet hat that she disregarded on the dock.

"Thanks." she said, pulling it through the bars and putting it on.

As she sat down again, the disgusting men in the other cell started to notice she was a girl. They started whistling and edging her to come over to their side of the cell.

Disgusted, she realized she had a stone in her hand. She stood up and looked at them with a sly look on her face. The guys started getting excited and were pressing against the bars when she chucked the stone and it hit one of the guys in the face. She kept chucking stones at them till they were cowering at the other end of their cell. She sniffed and sat down, crossing her arms and legs.

After a little bit in the cell, they brought the unconscious Jack into the cell and dropped him on the floor where he awoke instantly.

"Wha?"

"Welcom to our new home, daddy dearest!" Alkali said sarcastically and meanly.

"Oh, bugga." he said.

"I thought you didn't say that till the second one?" she muttered to herself causing Jack to ask, "What?"

"Nothing," she said, looking out at the world. "So how was your fight with Will?"

"How did you know?"

"Haven't we established that I'm psychic?" she said plainly.

Jack gave her a weird stare.

"Never mind. I just know."

Jack sat down and pulled his hat over his eyes and pretended that he was asleep.

Alkali found the last stone on the floor and held it up in a going to be throwing fashion. The guys in the next cell started quivering.

-.-

Later that night, the guys were in the next cell were trying to get the dog to come towards them. Jack was still pretending to sleep and Alkali was playing catch with herself with the stone. She was sitting, cross legged, on the floor with her back to the door of the cell.

"You can keep doing that forever, that dog is never gonna move." Jack said to them.

"Well excuse us if we haven't resigned ourselves to the gallows just yet!" one of them snapped. Jack grinned and sat back again.

"When is that stupid ship gonna come. I'm board outa my mind and those guys are getting on my nerves!" Alkali growled.

"What ship?" Jack asked but heard cannon fire in the background. "I know those guns," he said and sprang up to the window. "It's the Pearl." he hissed.

"The Black Pearl!? I've heard tell about her... been prayin off ships and settlements for near ten years. Never leaves any survivors."

"No survivors!" Jack smirked, "Then where do the stories come from I wonder!"

Alkali smirked at the confused looks of the other inmates.

Ok... I'll continue later... I want a brownie
