Later that day Jace was standing in the rigging looking out to sea. She had found out about what had happened between her parents through Mr Gibbs. Although it upset me she understood most of what he was saying to her. She sighed and started humming a Spanish lullaby that her mother used to sing to her when she was alone with her. Which wasn't very often because she had been much more close with her father. She smiled as she remembered what had happened the day she had admitted that when she was three.
Flash back
A small two year old girl was running around the deck of the Black Pearl being chased by both her parents. She was laughing and giggling as she ran because she knew she could out run them. I mean come on it wasn't hard. Just then someone swooped down from above and grabbed her. She screamed as they landed in the crows nest. "Hello pritty," a voice said. The small toddler smiled and turned around.
"Hewwo Hectow," she said smiling at one Hector Barbossa.
"What did you do this time?" he asked.
"I dwon't know what you mwean Hectow," the small toddler said trying to look inocent but the look couldn't be pulled off as she looked to much like her father and he has never been inoccent a day in his life.
"Come on what you do?" he asked again.
"Stole daddys rum," the toddler admitted. Hector began to laugh and howl at the small child's antics.
"Now why you do a thing like tha'?" Hector asked.
"'Cause I wanna be like daddy," the small child replied. Hector's eyebrows rose into his hair line.
"Don't you want to be more like ya mother?" he asked.
"No. I love daddy more," the child admitted.
"Excuse me?" a voice asked from behinde the toddler. She looked around to see her parents standing there. Her father was trying not to laugh as her mother looked at her with wide eyes.
"Well I love mummy and daddy the same but me get along betew wid daddy," the toddler emended. That did it Jack Sparrow burst out laughing and fell from the rope he was holding onto. Luckely he fell ontop of the piled sails that needed reparing.
"Oh you are for it Jack Sparrow," the toddlers mother had said and chased him all over the ship until he pulled her into a kiss.
End of Flashback
"What you thinking off?" a voice asked starteling her so that she nearly fell off of the rigging. She probouly would have done if an arm hadn't shot out to steady her. "Sorry darlin'," a voice chuckled.
"Nothing much," Jace replied.
"Hmm?" Jack asked.
"I'm not thinking 'bout much," Jace replied.
"You Jace are always thinking out something," Jack said and Jace couldn't help but agree.
"You rember that time when I was two and I told Hector that I was closer to you then mum?" Jace asked. Jack thought for a moment and then started laughing.
"How could I forget?" he asked.
"Yeah. That was what I was thinking about." Jace said and sighed as she looked up at the stars. Thinking of her mother, thinking of how much her life had changed in less then twenty four hours after all those years living with a false family. Yeah Jace was happy where she was. Back with her father on the Peal like it should have been.
