Authors Notes: Ok from now on it's just from the different girls' points of views each chapter. Every other chapter is a different POV.
Jamie and Jacklyn walked out onto the deck slowly, looking around. There were crewmates leaving the ship as well as some running around it.
"Tortuga." Jamie said, smiling.
"You only like it because the bartenders are afraid of you and give you free drinks." Jacklyn said.
"Yep." Jamie said, smirking evilly. "Time to commandeer ourselves a new ship." Before they took three steps someone was shouting at them. Jamie and Jacklyn turned to see Will and Jack walking towards them.
"I in no way doubt that you two can handle yourselves and know your way around." Jack said.
"But we figure that since you just woke up…we should go with you." Will said.
"That's fine." Jacklyn said. Jamie looked at her sister then rolled her eyes. She gave Jacklyn's braid a quick tug to bring her out of her daydream. "Ow!"
"Welcome back to the real world dear sister." Jamie said. She looked at Jack who was grinning. Jamie, being the ever playful tease that she is, winked at Jack before turning and walking off the ship. Will and Jacklyn followed behind her and Jack followed behind them. Jamie walked up and down the docks then turned and looked at Will and Jack. "How long are we here for?"
"Bout a few hours." Jack said.
"Ok then." Jamie said. She looked at Jacklyn and yet again rolled her eyes. Her sister was too indulged in looking at Will without making it look like it. "Ok…you." Jamie pointed at Jack. "My sister likes taking in the sights…they go look around…we take that ship." Jamie pointed out to the water at a ship. It looked like the Dauntless but it didn't have the pretty colours that Jamie hated.
"That ship?" Jack asked.
"That ship…captain." Jamie said with a mischievous smirk.
Bloody women. Jack thought. "Fine…that ship."
"Ok then." Jamie said, smiling. She looked at Jacklyn. "Go…see sights…steal things…be a pirate."
"You're not my boss." Jacklyn said.
"I know." Jamie said. She leaned in and whispered into Jacklyn's ear. "But it gives you alone time with Mr. Turner."
"Right." Jacklyn said. "Well…you wanna see sights?" She looked at Will.
"Sure." Will said. They walked off.
"Right then captain." Jamie said. "Let's commandeer us a ship." She walked away and Jack quickly ran to catch up with her.
Five minutes later Jamie and Jack were walking on the bottom of the water with a small boat over their heads.
"This was crazy…but works." Jamie said.
"Yes…it normally does." Jack said, looking over his shoulder at her before looking back ahead of them. "Ready?"
"Are you?" Jamie replied in a coy voice. Jack smirked to himself. "1…2…3." They flipped the boat off of them and swam to the surface right next to the ship. Jamie reached it first and she waited for Jack. His head came up after a minute.
"You're fast." Jack said.
"Been swimming since I was 6." Jamie said. She looked up at the ship and Jack looked at her. Her hair was soaked and, since it was down, there were small strands clinging to her face. "Ok…time to climb."
"What?" Jack asked.
"Climb…you know…how to you expect us to get up there? Fly?" Jamie asked.
"Right." Jack said. They got to the top and hid behind the wheel. Jamie looked down at the deck. There were about ten men there.
"Too easy." Jamie muttered. "I'll take care of these guys…you see if there's anyone under the deck."
"Who said you give the orders?" Jack asked.
"This is gonna be my ship." Jamie reminded him. She stood up and walked down to the men, Jack watched her. "Hello boys." The men turned and looked at her. Jack slipped down the other set of stairs and down below deck. "Now…who all knows who I am?" Every one of the men put their hands up. Jamie smiled. "Good…now…you all know what I'm capable of. If you want to face me…stay on the ship." The men all ran and dove off the ship. "Too easy."
Jack came back up and saw the deck deserted. He looked up at Jamie who was carefully steering the ship into port. When they got it docked and got off Jamie looked at Jack.
"Well…I'm up for a drink. You?" She asked.
"Yeah," Jack said. They walked to the nearest tavern and got two bottles of rum. They sat and drank in silence. Jacklyn and Will showed up shortly after.
"Hey you two," Jacklyn said. "Get the ship?"
"Yep," Jamie said. "All the men on that ship were down right scared of me."
"Because you're the ruthless Jamie Jameson," Jacklyn said. "Anyone who knows that ain't fool enough to fight you."
"Right…considering I took out ten men in under ten minutes," Jamie said. "I deserve the reputation that I got."
"You certainly do." Jacklyn said. Both girls took no notice that they had completely shut the two guys out of the conversation. Not that Jack really noticed, he was busy watching Jamie after what Jacklyn said next, "Try wringing the water out of your shirt. It's dripping wet."
"Yeah whatever," Jamie said. She stood up, took the bottom of her shirt and twisted it to wring the water out of it then tied it up just under her breasts. "I got too many scars."
"You get into too many fights," Jacklyn said. She looked up to see Jack's eyes moving up and down, obviously scanning over Jamie's revealed torso and the belly button that had a regular earring through it showing that it was pierced. Jamie sat back down, looked at Jack then pinched him.
"OW!" Jack shouted, jumping and grabbing his arm.
"You used your nails didn't you?" Jacklyn said, smirking. Jamie smiled widely and nodded her head, messing her hair up more then it was. "Good girl." Jack glared at her while Will laughed.
"I don't need swords or pistols," Jamie said. "I'm a human weapon. Come on…I wanna grab us some crew." The girls stood up. Jamie leaned over the table and took hold of Jack's chin. "Gonna take some of your crew as well." She winked before linking arms with Jacklyn and leaving the tavern.
"Women…are going to drive me insane." Jack said, letting his head fall back.
"I know what you mean." Will said.
Jamie and Jacklyn walked through the streets of Tortuga.
"So what are we looking for?" Jacklyn asked.
"Hmmm…" Jamie said, looking around. She noticed a crowd and pulled her sister towards it. "That's what we're looking for." She grinned widely as they watched what looked like a wrestling match going on. People were cheering for either guy. "Whichever one wins…we take."
"Sounds good," Jacklyn said, watching with slight interest.
"Maybe we could persuade Will to join our crew," Jamie said, looking at Jacklyn.
"He's too loyal to Jack," Jacklyn said, sighing.
"Damn, too bad," Jamie said. They watched as one guy fell unconscious and the other was declared the winner. "Ok now…before he leaves." The girls made their way to the winner. "Hi. Nice fight."
"Thanks," The guy said, looking at Jamie then at Jacklyn. "What can I do for you ladies?"
"Well first of all," Jamie said, noticing the smirk on his face. "You can wipe that smirk off your face because we do NOT want that." The smirk was gone in an instant. "And second…we're Jamie and Jacklyn Jameson." The guy stared at them in shock. "And we have a proposition for you."
"Aye? That would be…" The guy said.
"You see…we're in the market…our ship got sunk and we got ourselves a new one…but we need a new crew," Jacklyn said. "What you say to being a part of that crew?"
"I'd say…Sure." The guy said.
"Welcome aboard sailor," Jamie said. "Oh…and by the way…we sail under the colours of the Black Pearl and Jack Sparrow. You still interested?"
"Aye." The guy said.
"You got a name?" Jacklyn asked.
"Devon." The guy said.
"Nice name," Jamie said. "So…if you can handle sailing under the Black Pearl colours…and command of two girls…then follow us." The girls led him to the dock and their near ship. They were surprised to find some of the crew from the pearl already working on changing it. "There's our ship…help out those guys." Devon nodded and went aboard. "Look Jackie…we're getting a new family."
"Oh give it up," Jacklyn said, laughing as her sister pretended to cry. Jamie laughed instead. "Do we need anymore? Because that looks about near half of the Pearl's crew."
"We should get a few more," Jamie said. "We need more then just us as girls on there. I'm pretty sure Jack isn't fool enough to send Anna-Maria over." They walked around and recruited a few more guys, finding no girls but the prostitutes that couldn't even swing a sword yet alone use it to protect her.
When Jamie and Jacklyn got back to the docks they found Jack and Will were on their ship and helping get things ready…well…Will was helping and Jack was barking orders.
"Excuse us…captain." Jamie said as she and her sister came aboard their ship. "But who said you can give orders on our ship?" She smirked evilly at Jack. "Letting it pass this time." She looked at Jacklyn. "Let me guess…you're captain again?"
"Of course," Jacklyn said. Jamie just rolled her eyes. She went below deck to see what they had for storage. Down below decks was dark so she pulled out the box of matches she had taken from the Captain's Quarters on The Pearl. She couldn't stand not being without matches. Since she had no clue where her original pack was, she had to make due with the pack she found. She lit a match and used it to light the candles.
"Crates and crates of stuff. Hopefully rum or else I'm gonna scream," Jamie muttered, opening the crate closest to her and sighed in relief when she saw it filled to bursting with rum bottles. She closed the crate and started looking in others. Jamie had been down there for longer then an hour and was so interested in finding out what the crates held that she didn't notice someone coming down to check on her.
"You been down here a while," Jack said. Jamie turned and looked at him.
"How long you been there?" She asked.
"Bout ten minutes," Jack answered. His eyes trailed from the slightly damp and messy hair and down the rest of her body. Jamie leaned against a crate that was filled with food. It was obvious to Jack that sometime in the last hour Jamie had rolled up her breeches because instead of ending at her ankles, they ended just above her knees, showing off more scars, though not nearly as many as there were on her stomach.
"Liking what you see captain?" Jamie asked after a while, her little mischievous smirk back in place with her mismatching eyes twinkling. Jack's eyes slowly came up to meet her own. "I been watching ya the whole time."
"Have you now?" Jack asked, smirking.
"I have." Jamie said seductively. Wait…why am I being seductive to him? Oh well…its fun and I love his reactions. Besides…it's in my nature. She thought, smiling in a seductive way as well when she noticed the look in Jack's eyes. Without thinking, her tongue darted out to moisten her lips. Jack's eyes watched it.
"Hey! You two alive down there?" Will called from the top of the stairs, bringing both Jamie and Jack back to reality with a crashing halt. "Jack get back to the Pearl. We're about to leave."
"Coming," Jack called back. Jamie went to walk past him but he grabbed her arm. Jamie looked up at him since she was about half a foot shorter then Jack.
Damn him! Damn him and his sexy eyes… She thought.
Kiss her…don't kiss her…kiss her…don't kiss her…BLOODY HELL! Women drive me mad. Jack thought.
Jamie seemed to make up Jack's mind for him when she put her hands on the back of his neck and pulled his head down to hers in a bruising kiss. Jack's arms worked by themselves and made their way around her waist, pulling her closer.
"JACK NOW!" Will shouted, causing Jamie to jump back and away from Jack. She gave him one last look before heading up the stairs.
Ok…problem solved…no more thinking about kissing him because I already did it. Jamie thought. She stood next to Jacklyn as Jack came above decks and left the ship, getting onto his own ship.
"I wanna steer." Jamie said suddenly, making Jacklyn look at her. "Come on…I'm good at it."
"Ok." Jacklyn said, moving aside. Jamie took the wheel and followed the pearl out of port and out to sea. "We got Cotton."
"What?" Jamie asked, glancing at Jacklyn.
"Cotton...the guy with a parrot from Jack's crew," Jacklyn said. "We are never gonna learn what he means."
"Eventually we will," Jamie said. "And he's a hard worker." She looked down at their new crew and spotted Cotton cleaning the deck.
"What's do we got in storage?" Jacklyn asked.
"Food, blankets, rum, more food, more blankets, more rum and other kinds of drinks," Jamie said.
"Was it hot down there?" Jacklyn asked.
"What?" Jamie asked quickly.
"Well…you got your breeches rolled up," Jacklyn said, looking down at Jamie's legs. "Was it how down there?"
"It gets to you after a while," Jamie said. "Needs more light…had to light the candles."
"You still have your matches?" Jacklyn asked.
"No," Jamie said, sighing. "Their somewhere on the Pearl. So I just took the box I found in Jack's room."
"Thief," Jacklyn said.
"Yep," Jamie said. "That I am big sis. Now go play captain and see how everyone's doing." Jacklyn rolled her eyes but left Jamie alone. Nope…not thinking about him…thinking about steering…not thinking about him. She thought, managing to convince herself that it was true. As the sun disappeared below the horizon, Jamie had caught up to the Black Pearl and was actually sailing past them. One of the crewmen the girls had recruited knew how to steer so Jamie got him to steer as she went to the side of the ship and looked over at Jack who was steering the ship and talking to Will at the same time.
Jamie whistled to get their attention and Jack got Will steering the ship before making his way to the side of the ship and looked at the Jamie. She looked down at the water between the two ships then up at Jack.
"What's betting I could jump that?" Jamie asked, smirking.
"Not sure…that's a pretty big jump Luv." Jack said, smirking himself.
"You don't believe I can do it?" Jamie asked. She called Jacklyn over. "Hey Jackie…could I jump that?"
"You've jumped bigger." Jacklyn said, going back down below deck.
"Told ya," Jamie said, sticking out her tongue.
"Like to see ya do it," Jack said. "Or maybe you-" He never got to finish it because them Jamie took a few steps back before running, grabbing the railing of her ship, flipping over the gap and landing right next to Jack on the Pearl. Jack stared at her.
"Now…what were you about to say?" Jamie asked innocently.
"Can you get back?" Jack asked, it was the first thing that came to his mind.
"Sure…just do the exact same thing. Watch," Jamie said. She walked forward a bit, turned around, and did the same thing to get back onto her ship. "Good night Jack." She walked down into what was now her room.
"That was interesting," Will said. Jack looked at him before walking back over to his friend. "Heard she could do a lot but never heard about her being able to do that."
"What have you heard about her?" Jack asked.
"Well…she and her sister raided Port Royal a year ago," Will said. "You should know that."
"Yeah," Jack said, "No casualties, no gun shots. What else?"
"Well, while you two were below deck, Jacklyn told an interesting story about Jamie," Will said. He looked at Jack who gave him a 'go on' look and hand gesture. "Jamie's quite the little seductress. She took over keeping the navy off their backs while the rest of the crew stole. She was able to get every single one of those navy men to do what she said."
"How?" Jack asked.
"Apparently just with either a smile or a pout," Will said. He looked over at the other ship.
Isn't that the truth. Jack thought, remembering the look on Jamie's face that made him want to kiss her and do so much more.
"Their parents died when Jamie was 5 and Jacklyn was 6," Will said. "Their father was a pirate and got killed by the Royal Navy. He wasn't the captain of the ship but they took it over anyway."
"Again…how?" Jack asked.
"Well…again, it was Jamie being little miss seductive," Will said. "When the girls said they wanted to take over the ship, well, they were five and six so you can imagine the captain wouldn't hear it. So Jamie pulled her little pouty look and got the captain to just, fall victim to it. Then she stabbed him with his own sword."
"Are you serious?" Jack asked.
"Ask Jacklyn," Will said, looking over at the other ship again to see Jacklyn steering. Jack looked over as well. "She told me the story."
"I think I will," Jack said, walking back over to the side of the ship and calling to Jacklyn, who got a crewman to steer again and went over to where Jamie was standing before.
"Aye?" Jacklyn asked.
"Is what Will said about Jamie true?" Jack asked. "About how you guys got your ship?"
"Aye," Jacklyn said. "She didn't even think, just grabbed the sword and thrust it into his heart. That's what she told me. So then we became the youngest captain and first mate. Course we had someone else steer for a while until I was 12. Then of course, when she hit 12, bodies started changing very rapidly which gave us these." Jacklyn looked down at her body. "And then one day Jamie noticed how a few of the crew mates staring at her breasts…and she bruised all their chests."
"Bloody hell," Jack said. "She's dangerous."
"Oh I wouldn't worry about her if I were you Jack," Jacklyn said. "After all…she's only a girl." Jacklyn smirked and went back to steering the ship, leaving Jack with a look on his face that made Jacklyn want to laugh but she managed to refrain from doing so.
Jamie lied on her back on her bed and stared at the ceiling with her hands under her head. She had been lying there for a while and, to her dismay, the only thought she had in her head was of that damned kiss.
"Why the hell did I kiss him?" Jamie grumbled as she flipped her legs over the side of the bed and sat up. She stood then walked over to the desk that was in the room. She opened a few drawers and found paper, quills and ink. "Well…I can draw stuff now." She took everything out and spent the next two hours sketching pictures of the new ship and did some of Jacklyn.
Jamie: Well?
Jack: What?
Jamie: You know what.
Jack: I do?
Jamie: (rolls eyes) HOW WAS THE DAMN CHAPTER!
Jack: You didn't have to yell. It was good.
Jamie: This is what Will puts up with every day. I do not believe that is possible.
