Disclaimer: I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean


Chapter 4

„What? What did ya say?" Captain Arthur couldn`t believe what he had just heard. „The lass. She knows Sparrow."

Smith nodded. „She said that Sparrow killed Edward and that she didn`t know where he was." Arthur rolled his eyes and shouted at Smith: „AND THAT MAKES YA ASSUME SHE KNOWS SPARROW? SHE DIDN`T EVEN SAY ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT HIM? HOW DOES THAT HELP US?!" Smith knew Arthur had a point. But there was something about the way Angelica talked about Jack, that made him almost certain that she knew him. Smith told Arthur this too.

Angelica heard the steps of the stairs crack. It was the next moring. Just shortly after sunrise. Angelica knew because there was a tiny hole on the wall of the cell, which she could look through.

„You. Teach." Arthur adressed Angelica, who felt the anger inside her again. Arthur walked over to the cell and knealed down, so he could see Angelica`s face. „Do you know Sparrow? Personally?" Arthur started the conversation. Angelica laughed bitterly. „I wish I didn`t." she responded, Arthur could see the hatered in her eyes. He could see that she knew him very well. Too well.

„Did ya… love him?" he asked her in a bitter voice. Angelica`s face dropped and she stood up. Why were they all so interested in Jack? She hated him, but at the same time, she felt like she had to protect him. „Did ya love him?" Arthur repeated. Angelica`s eyes had a cold expression as she lied: „No."

Arthur stared at the woman in front of him. „No. No, I did not." Angelica felt like she had to sound more convincing, but that was hard, since even though she hated him, she also loved him. And she hated that she loved him. She wished that she could stop loving him and move on, but that was nearly impossible. She didn`t realize that Arthur was staring into her eyes as she was thinking about him.

He knew she had lied. He saw it in her eyes. In a matter of seconds, the captain unlocked the cell door and grabbed Angelica, pushing her against the dirty wall.

„Do. Not. Lie to me." Arthur`s voice was once again low and threatening. Angelica felt her eyes filled with tears and Arthur of course saw it. He grinned. He had her where he wanted her to be.

„DO YOU LOVE THAT JOKE OF A PIRATE?!" Arthur yelled right into her face and Angelica closed her eyes, which caused a single tear to roll down her cheek.

„Don`t talk about him like that." Angelica pleaded quietly. That was all the answer Arthur needed. She was in love with Sparrow. „What about him?" Arthur lowered his voice again. „I don`t… no, he… he marooned me on that island, if he loved me, would he have done that?" Angelica spat full of hate, not only towards Arthur.

Arthur grinned. „Where is he? I know you know."

Angelica swallowed. Of course Jack wanted to get his Pearl back… he`d probably go to Tortuga, where else would he go?

„TELL ME WHERE HE WENT AND WHAT HE IS DOING!"

„Why do you care?" Angelica questioned him. „Why do you want to know everything about him? What is he to you?"

In response, Arthur slapped her so hard, that Angelica fell onto the floor. She was usually a strong woman, a pirate, but now she felt absolutely helpless. „No food, nor water until you`ve told me. AND I WILL FIND OUT, EVEN IF I HAVE TO TORTURE YOU FOR IT!" Angelica knew he meant it. As soon as he left the brig, she cried and didn`t stop until she fell asleep.


Tortuga

Jack was strolling through the streets of Tortuga. He had to find his crew, he wanted to set sail! And Gibbs still hadn`t returned, so Jack had decided to do it himself. „Like a bunch of kids." Jack murmed.

Then, he saw the door to a pub open. This was the pub Jack had last seen his crew in! He was convinced that he`d witness Gibbs leaving the pub along with his crew, but instead he came face to face with an old man. Jack grinned. This was the owner of the inn. „I will pay you back…" Jack said, trying to sound reassuring. He never paid for the drinks he had there… at least, not always. „I don`t care, let me through! I`m sailing away." The guy said and pushed past in a hurry.

Jack cocked an eyebrow. He was never usually so careless about money. When Jack turned around, he was almost hit by Gibbs.

„Jack, there you are! We MUST go. Now." Gibbs started to pull Jack with him. „Why? Gibbs, what`s going on? Where is the crew?" The tone in Jack`s voice made Gibbs stop. Jack sounded… worried?

Gibbs gave Jack a scared and worried look. Jack chuckled. „You look like Angelica when she told me she was with child." Gibbs` eyes grew even wider. „THE LASS IS PREGNANT?!"

Jack rolled his eyes. „Nooo!" Jack sounded very impatient, so Gibbs decided to just get to the point.

„Blackbeard. He…He`s… alive. And he`s here, Jack. He`s lookin` for ye. He`s plannin` to kill ye, revenge for you killing him."

Jack couldn`t believe what he had just heard. Gibbs was freaking him out, but Jack did what he always did, when he was frightened or worried. He joked about it. „Ah, I see not even Davy Jones wanted to keep him in his locker. Glad I`m not the only one who hates that pirate."

Suddenly Gibbs pushed Jack inside the pub. Jack stared at Gibbs in confusion as Gibbs made a hand signal to be quiet. Jack peeked out of a small window and couldn`t believe what he saw there – Blackbeard was standing in front of the inn, pistol in hand.

Jack looked at him through the window. Same smoking beard, black clothes, cold, grey eyes…

And Angelica was his daughter? Jack frowned at the thought. Her mother must have been bloody beautiful, then…

Blackbeard seemed to be standing there for centuries and Jack was just about to open the door and shoot him, when Blackbeard walked off.

Jack realized that shooting him probably wouldn`t have worked anyway. A man that returns from the dead is often not easy to get rid of…

Jack pulled Gibbs with him and they rushed to the port. The Pearl was still there, in all it`s glory. Just, John wasn`t there anymore. „Bloody sea-dog." Jack cursed for seemingly the hundreth time that day. But as Jack boarded the ship, he realized that there was a man sitting on a barrel next to the stairs up to the helm.

„Jackie." The man started, Jack groaned. Not his father again! „Dad, I`m old enough to look after myself now." Teague laughed, shaking his head. „I heard Edward Teach be tryin` to kill you. What you gonna do about it, Jackie?" Captain Teague asked Jack while getting up. Jack shrugged. „I`ll shoot him first, then!" Jack suggested, but only recieved a „look" from his father.

„One says: You can only kill a man for ever if you stab him with the gold dagger." Teague explained, staring past his son and Gibbs at the sea. Jack laughed. „Am I s`posed to paint a knive yellow and stab it though his heart just lika Barbossa did with his silver and poisoned sword? Really?" Once again Teague rolled his eyes.

„There is a chest. A chest with jewels, jewels with the power to" Teague was cut off by Jack, „rule the wind and tide! Angelica told me. Does that mean she didn`t lie?" Teague shook his head. „´tis the truth. Only Calypso herself can tell you how to use the jewels for ruling the sea, but I know that the gold dagger can kill Blackbeard. And Blackbeard knew this, so he hid the chest somewhere… find it, Jackie!" captain Teague explained to Jack.

„How?" Jack had no idea. Teague grinned at him. „He must have told his daughter where it was… or at least given her a map…"

Jack rolled his eyes. Oh great.


Soooo… Chrissy and Alayna just don`t have the biggest role at the moment, but they will, I promise! Anyway, please review, it really motivates me :)
