Ch. 4 So you're the Captain?

Sadly do not own anything Disney, would like to but don't. Only my characters, which I guess is cool. No it is cool. Okay now I'm just a freak, so gone read forget I said anything…….

They both froze. Facing the gun which made the noise. The arm which held the pistol. The shoulder which held the arm. Then the neck which was coming out of the shoulder blade. Then the head which was supported by the neck. Ash instantly recognised the face of one very infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. Ash loved reading about pirate things. She never longed for what they did, they just intrigued her, or more like their freedom did. Although she would never admit it. She sucked in a deep breath. This notorious pirate was infamous all over the world especially in Port Royal. Where the two girls lived. Ash quickly turned her head to that of Emily's.

Em's gaze followed from the head of him, to the chest, where she rested, then the middle of his hips, where she definetly stopped at, then to the feet. Ash rolled her eyes.

She knew what Em was thinking, that was about as obvious as the dirt on the ground.

"Like what ya see, luv?" This Captain asked Emily.

He was rewarded with a, "Ughhh", then a, "I've seen better." she added.

Ash bit her bottom lip to keep in a smile.

"Oh really?" he asked with a mocked hurt expression.

"Yes! In fact, I absolutely, positively have seen better. And if you think that pistol will frighten me, dear sir, you are terribly mistaken!" she stated clear as day.

He mumbled, 'captain', then, "And why is that?"

"I rule Hell!"

Oh that explains all the weird and strange behaviour, Ash thought. She quickly looked to the Captain. He had his eyebrows shot up. He obviously had never been talked to that way, by Emily that is.

Ashley forcefully nudged Emily to shut up. Silently asking her with her eyes to shut up!

"Bloody hell, Ash, what was that for, ya daft wench?" Em spat spitefully.

"Don't dare call me a daft wench, Emily Leanne Langley!" she retorted.

"Oi, don't use my middle name!"

Ash discarded the fact she used Emily's dreaded middle name.

Every crew member intently watched the two girls. Moving their heads from side to side, while both girls were arguing.

"That's Captain Jack Sparrow", Ash advised.

"Really? Looks nothing like him!"

"Well, it is."

"Yes, it is me."

"No?" Em questioned, circling around his form, examining everything about him. His black beaded hair, chiselled body, from what she could tell. His hat, his teeth: he showed her in his smirk. But most importantly his eyes. Ash could tell Em was lingering on his eyes. Then she snapped her glance.

"Oh I guess it is. To tell ya the truth, I was kinda expecting something a bit more."

"Oh boy", Ash loved Em's bluntness, but most of the time it got them into trouble. And at least she knew when to hold her tongue. Em had yet to master that art. Ash knew that this man was the Captain of the most feared Black Pearl and was the most feared pirate captain. But most importantly he was a womanizer and their was no wounding his famous pride.

"Oh really?" he was gritting his teeth, "Well your nothing special yourself, kitten. Let me tall ya luv, yer just Plain Jane and your friend too."

Ash was taken aback.

Em just turned her face to Ash's, "I don't like him. He's far too conceded and rude! And quite frankly he's rather small", the last part added in a whisper. Now of coarse it wasn't true but she was going to have fun now, because he too ruined her pride and Lord knows that never happens. Ever.

Jack clenched his jaw. Ash feared for her life, the pistol was still in his hand. She was worried. Ash waited for the blow. She knew the Captain didn't intentionally hurt women with physical pain. But Em exceeded her limit, above and beyond.

"And why shouldn't I kill ye right now, luv? Ye've already given me reason why I should?" he spat.

Ash looked back to Em. One eye open. Em tugged the earring of her left ear. This was her tell for lying. No one ever figured it out, but Ash did and she knew to follow along.

"Well, I really didn't technically give you a reason as to why you should kill us", she replied.

He let out a sigh, then motioning with his hand for her to continue.

There it was the second ear tug, "Well Captain, you wouldn't want to hurt me because I am the Commodore's niece and am worth quite a lot as for my friend……"

Em left space for Ashley to continue the lie. As she often did, but Ash could never lie which left Em to jump right back in.

"…..She is also my sister. Together we're worth quite the sum, Captain", Em finished with a bow.

"Yes and I could possibly convince father and the Commodore to increase the ransom", Ash gritted through her teeth.

Em inwardly smiled. Ashley could not lie without a base, but when she did, it was a fantastic spin. Hearing that, was the icing on the cake for a pirate.

"But, we must be returned unharmed", Em added quickly.

"And to Port José"

"Why Port José?" he asked.

"Yes dear sister, why Port José?" Em asked through gritted teeth.

"Because father is resting there, remember?" Ash nudged Em.

"Oh, right, we were on our way to visit him", Emily was taking over again.

"First off when you're visiting your father, why would you hide in a...closet…and second Port José is a docking port?" Captain Sparrow intervened.

"Ummm, ummm, we, were a, we were hiding, from you. Yes you the, uh, sailors told us they saw pirates and to hide in the least unlikely place. So we, uh, did", Ash said.

Jack seemed convinced, "But why a docking port?"

"Well, yes we know, that's where all the ships reside but……" great Ashley could no longer lie. She could think of nothing more to say.

"…..Their is just no questioning father. He's old and we must give him as he wishes. He's on his death bed", Em answered in mock sorrowfulness. She saved the day. Hopefully.

"Oh, I see", he said, "Well take 'em back to the Pearl mates. Lock 'em in the brig", he pronounced showing off his gold teeth, with that the Captain grabbed Emily and another pirate grabbed Ashley. After swinging over to the Pearl, Captain Sparrow threw Emily over his shoulder. The other pirate did the same the same with Ash. She screamed and kicked and wailed to be released. Em just let it happen. The pirate put Ashley in the brig first.

Right before the Captain did the same he firmly tapped Emily on her rear. She smiled then yelled," Pirate Bastard!", and then he threw her in the brig and smiled.

"The one and only, luv", with that he left.

Em smiled too, Ash rolled her eyes. Even when they were in big trouble Em still managed to flirt. Gahhhhh. This was not the time.
