Ana woke up some time later, she did not know how long she had been unconscious

Ana woke up some time later, she did not know how long she had been unconscious. She soon comprehended that she was on a soft bed and a light was beating down on her face. Ana slowly opened her weary eyes and saw four eyes; two of them belonging to Victoria and the other two belonged to Captain Jack Sparrow. They were both staring at her intently. She sat up and saw that she was in Victoria's room lying on Victoria's bed.

"Oh Ana, are you alright? You gave me such a fright! We, I mean Captain Jack Sparrow and I were scared that you weren't going to wake up and we would have to call a doctor. That would never have worked though, because then the doctor would wonder what a man like Captain Jack is doing in our house and then would call the police! Everything would have been ruined Ana!" Victoria stated very quickly.

"I'm alright now thank you very much, I'm glad you two worried about me, especially you Captain Jack. I've heard that you never have the sense to help a civilian, instead you just go on with your pirating life!" Ana said sarcastically. She stared at Captain Jack and watched his face for any sign of emotion. Ana was disappointed because she realized that he had learned to hide his emotions very well.

At last Captain Jack spoke, "Actually, that is exactly why I politely intruded into your fine home this evening, to discuss the matter of pirating. As you see, I am not as young as I used to be and it is not so easy to continue with my previous life. The crew of my ship dropped me off here because they were tired of me and knew that the Turners lived here and would probably help me out. So here I am! What do you say? Can I stay for a while? Just as long as I figure out what I'm going to do with the remainder of my life" Jack declared as he looked between both Ana and Victoria. He could see the resemblance of Will and Elizabeth in Victoria, she was a very pretty girl, he decided. Ana looked somewhat familiar and he couldn't figure out just where he had seen her before. As he looked upon their faces, he could see that Victoria was very excited at the prospect of letting the famous Captain Jack Sparrow live with her. Ana however was another problem, she looked very confused and didn't know whether to accept or decline.

"Well you see Captain Sparrow..."

"Please call me Jack, it will make me feel more welcome" Jack stated enthusiastically while Ana shook with the rudeness of Jack to interrupt her.

"Alright then Jack, as I was saying, Mr. and Mrs. Turner are not in right now. However I will let you stay here until they arrive back home and then they can make the decision. Will that suit you?" Ana said with a note of impudence.

"Please say yes Jack! Please do! It would be so much fun to have an ex-pirate in the house! All of my friends would be insanely jealous and they would all beg to come over and see you!" Victoria said eagerly.

"Well you see darling, that would not quite work out. I must stay hidden and out of site, no must know that I am here or else I would get arrested and probably so would your family for helping a pirate. So if you were wise, I wouldn't tell anyone unless you want to see that pretty little neck of yours hanging in the hangman's noose!" Jack said clearly trying to frighten Victoria.

Victoria's eyes grew huge with fright and she said, "Oh Jack! I wouldn't dream of doing such a thing! I promise that I won't say a word, just as long as you stay for a long time! Well if you'll excuse me I must be going off to bed so I can get my rest and help persuade my parents in the morning. So Ana if you could please move, I will go to bed."

Ana stared at her and wondered what the sudden change in her meant. All that Ana knew was that know she would be stuck entertaining this pirate until the Turners came home, a prospect not at all interesting in her eyes. Of course, he could do all of the talking and tell her what he has been doing since he took Mr. Turner off on their little adventures. Yes, she decided, that would be just the thing to hold him over until they came home.
