It is now 8/22/10 Wow I'm lazy XD
This chapter is dedicated to my two best friends that I love and couldn't live without and my sister. Ruby and Lily I love you so much! Ruby, I have a special note for you at the bottom.
Briana, I'm going to miss you so much. Even if you're probably not going to read since I didn't tell you to, but I have to say/type it anyway. I love you and I want you to have a fun time in College! I mean it when I say this. If you die before me and I get into Heaven, I better see you in there damnit or I'll go down to Hell and kick your ass and bring your ass up to Heaven! I love you!
~Maddie
Ruby and Lily please read until the end. Everyone else- You guys should just be reading the story cause the things I'm writing after the actual story is kinda depressingish.
Chapter 4!
We hid behind some crap (Not literally) to check out the ships. Will looked at the ships. "We're going to steal that ship?" he asked pointing to the Dauntless.
I rolled my eyes. "Commandeer. We're going to commandeer that ship." Jack said pointing to the Interceptor.
"Nautical term." Ruby and I said together.
"Let me ask you all something or there's no point in going. Boy, this girl? How far are you willing to go to save her?" Jack asked.
"I'd die for her!" Will said dramatically and I rolled my eyes.
"Oh good! No worries then." Jack said. "Girls, why are you 2 here."
"I'm with you Jack. Whether it be death or life on the Black Pearl." I said and he smiled proudly at me.
"And you?" he asked Ruby.
"I'm with Alex. Plus Lily owes me 20 bucks." She said.
I chuckled. "Nothing like money to get you to save your best friends life." I said.
She grinned. "Yep!"
Jack nodded. "Alright then. Alex, you stay here with me. Will, Ruby…..do something else." He said making a shooing motion. Ruby nodded and pulled Will away.
With Will and Ruby!
Ruby pulled Will into the pub. "Why are we going in here?" Will asked. Ruby stopped for a second thinking and then shrugged and continued pulling.
"Two rums please!" Ruby said happily as they sat down and got their rum.
"Why do you think Jack and your friend wanted to talk alone?" Will asked.
Ruby shrugged. "Talk and make a plan probably. Who knows how Jack and Alex think separated, let alone together." They got their drinks and Ruby took a sip. "DAMN! This is strong!" she muttered.
Will did the same and grimaced. "I'll be right back." And Ruby nodded drinking more rum.
Regular POV (Mine/Alex's)
Jack and I spotted Will coming out of the pub alone and I ran up to him. "Where's Ruby?" I asked.
He blinked. "I left her in the pub 10 minutes ago." He said. "Why?"
"YOU WHAT?" I screeched and Will flinched. I glared at him and ran towards the pub. We all ran in and saw Ruby on the table with 2 empty cups next to her. I grimaced and dragged her out of there, seething at Will. I slapped Will across the face angrily. "That's for leaving her alone." I slapped him again. "And that's for leaving her in a room alone with alcohol!"
Ruby stumbled along. "Alex?" she murmured.
"Yes, Ruby?" I sighed.
"I luuuuuuuuuurve you!"
I grinned at that. "I luuuuuuuuuurve you too." I said rolling my eyes.
"Know what else I lurve?"
I put a hand through my hair. "What?"
"Pie, Ouran High, Tamaki, Fiyaro, falafels, and Will!" she said.
I laughed. "Really?" I asked feigning surprise.
She nodded seriously. "Uh huh! But don't tell him!" she said loudly.
"Ok." I said smirking.
"WILL!" she yelled when she spotted him. "I lurve you!" she wrapped her arms around him and he looked kinda weirded out. "Why…" she sniffled. "Why did you leave me?" tears streamed down her face and I rolled my eyes. "Why?" she cried and Jack hit her in the head and she passed out.
"Jack." I said annoyed, but I was fighting a smile.
"Sorry, luv, but she was getting so annoyin'" he said shrugging.
I rolled my eyes and looked at Will. "William, carry her." I said.
"Why me?" he asked pouting.
I turned on him. "Because you were the bloody one to leave her in the pub in the bloody FIRST PLACE!"
Jack looked surprised at my temper. "Calm down, luv." He said putting a hand on my shoulder.
I breathed in and out calming myself down. "Ok, I'm good." I murmured and felt something vibrating my pocket. My cell phone? What the hell? I opened it. "'Ello?" I asked my voice taking a kinda Brooklyn accent.
"ALEX!" a voice yelled.
"Lily? How the fuck do we get service?" I asked amazed.
"I don't know, I just wanted to play a game, and I found I got 5 bars. Oh and don't curse." She added in a scolding manner.
"That's really weird." I said.
"I know! Hey, let me talk to Ruby!"
I chuckled. "I can't." I said.
"Why? What happened?" her tone was warning yet wary. "Did you do something?"
I narrowed my eyes offended. "No! Will got her drunk and she was being annoying so Jack knocked her out." I said.
"WHAT! Let me talk to him." She said annoyed.
"Lily, cell phones don't exist yet." I said slowly.
"Oh yeah…wait why did Will get her drunk? Isn't that Jack's job?"
"Oh he didn't mean to, he just left her alone in a pub with rum…" I said
"Oh…." ((I think I like the word Oh…))
"Yeah, so have you seen the creepy undead people yet?"
"No, it's not night yet, and even if it was it takes them a while to come out." She said.
I laughed. "Wow, Lily, I didn't know they were gay." I said.
"Alex! That's not-" she started.
"I know." I said overlapping her. "So what have you been doing for fun?"
"Mostly hanging with Ragetti and playing with Jack the Monkey, they're so much fun! I told Ragetti and Pintel I was psychic when I first saw them."
I scoffed. "Psychic?"
I could hear her pout. "It was the only thing I could think of when they asked how I knew stuff."
"Is that why they kidnapped you too?"
"I guess, crap! Elizabeth is coming, I have to go. I'll tell Barbie and them you said hi."
"K thanks! I'll tell Ruby and Will that too."
"Ok, cool, bye."
"See ya." I said hanging up and saw Ruby was waking up. I chuckled and looked at her. "Hey, Sleeping Beauty." I said
"Hey." She said and then grimaced. I had forgotten she only gotten drunk once before.
I chuckled. "Here, take this." I said giving her something from my bag with a bottle of Gatorade.
She took it quickly. "What is it?" she asked drinking the Gatorade.
I grinned. "Alka Seltzer Morning Relief. Take it with Gatorade and in 15 minutes you'll feel a lot better. If you add sleep it's even better." I told her.
"How do you know this?" she asked.
I shrugged. "Stumbled across it when I was looking for a cure after T.J. got a hangover. I used it, he said it helped; I used it for myself when I had my first hangover." I said
She nodded. "Cool." She said and then clutched her head.
"Yeah, it gets worse before it gets better." I said.
Jack looked at her sympathetically. "First 'angover?" he asked
She shook her head. "Second, alcohol doesn't like me. I think my first was worse though."
I laughed. "Can you walk, Ruby?" I asked. She got up and nodded slowly. "Is the Gatorade and Seltzer helping?" she nodded and smiled weakly. We went and took the canoe and went under, every so often Ruby winced.
"This is either madness or brilliance." Will commented.
"It's amazing how many times those two traits coincide." Jack said
"Will, watch out for the-" started Ruby and we heard a crunch. Will had gotten caught into the lobster trap. "Never mind." She said rolling her eyes. "Wait, didn't they do this on Mythbusters?" she asked.
"What's Mythbusters?" asked Will and Jack.
"Yeah, they tested it and it didn't actually work." I said laughing.
"So how does this work then?" she asked as we let go of the canoe.
I shrugged as we climbed up the Dauntless. "Beats me."
"Gentlemen, don't be alarmed! We're taking over the ship." He said dramatically.
The men laughed. "This ship cannot be crewed by two men." Gillette said
I stepped out. "That's why I'm here." I said.
"Oh no, a woman with gender confusion." He said mockingly and laughed.
I glared and put my sword up to his throat. "Say that again. I dare you." I said.
Jack cleared his throat and I looked at him. "Um, luv, I'll handle this." He said and I let go of Gillette. He put his gun to Gillette's forehead. "Son, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow" he cocked his gun. "Savvy?"
I smirked as he paled. "So why don't you go cry to Norrington, K." I said as he got into the longboat and left with the crew.
Jack disabled the rudder chain and we got ready to leave. "Hold on, luv." He said grabbing my waist as Will grabbed Ruby's and we swung over to the Interceptor. "Thank you, Commodore, for helping us make way!" Jack said waving.
"We'd have had a very hard time by ourselves!" I finished the line smirking. They shot at us and we ducked laughing. I took Ruby down below and she went to sleep. I came up just in time to hear Will say. "When my mother died I came out here, looking for my father." Jack pretended to not be listening. "At the jail it was only after you learned my name agreed to help me. Since that was what I wanted I didn't press the matter. I'm not a simpleton, Jack." At this I snorted and Will looked at me for a moment and I smiled back innocently. "You knew my father." Will finished looking at Jack.
"I knew 'im. Probably one of the few people who knew 'im as William Turner. Everyone else called him Bootstrap or Bootstrap Bill." Jack said.
"Bootstrap?" Will asked confused.
"Good man. Good pirate, I swear you look just like 'im." Jack said
I scoffed. "No he doesn't." I called.
Jack looked up at me surprised. "You knew 'im?" he asked.
"Bill? You could say that." I said quietly. "Good man and good pirate is true though. He really was a good man. Probably even a better pirate." I said
"That's not true! My father was a merchant sailor. A good respectable man that obeyed the law." Will argued.
"'E was a bloody pirate. A scallywag." Jack said annoyed.
Will unsheathed his sword. "My father was not a pirate!" he said angrily.
"Put it away some. It's not worth getting beat again." Jack said sounding bored.
"You didn't beat me. You two ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight I'd kill you." Will said.
I raised my eyebrows. "Then it's not much incentive for us to fight fair, then is it?" I asked and Jack and I locked eyes for a moment and I ducked as the sail hit Will so he was hanging above the water.
"Now, as long as you're just hanging there pay attention." Jack ordered. "The only rules that really matter are these, what a man-"
"Or woman!" I interjected.
He rolled his eyes. "Or woman can do and what a man or woman can't do." Jack said. "For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man, or you can't. But pirate is in your blood boy, so you'll have to square with that someday. Now, me for example, I can let you drown, but I can't bring this ship into Tortuga with just me onesie self, and Alex, although good for fighting it seems, I don't think she can sail, can you?" he asked me.
I shook my head. "I can fight and I can kill, can't sail." I said.
"See? So." He swung Will back and offered him his sword back. "Can you sail under the command of 2 pirates, or can you not?"
"Tortuga?" Will asked taking his sword.
Jack smiled. "Tortuga." He said.
"Two pirates?" I asked
Jack grinned. "You don't think I'd put you under the whelp did you? Nah, you're first mate."
"Sweet!" I said and went up to Jack. "So, what can I can and can't do?" I asked Jack.
He looked thoughtful. "Well, lass, you're a bit like Turner, except you need to square with your heart, not your blood. So you can take a chance on whoever your heart desires or you can't and you'll wonder forever what would have happened if you took the chance." A tear slid down my surprised face and I nodded and went down below running into Will. "Sorry." I murmured and he caught me.
"What's wrong, Miss Depp? Did Jack do something? Did he hurt you?" Will asked worriedly.
I shook my head. "Call me Alex, and no, Will, nothing like that."
"Then wha-Oh." He said.
I looked at him. "What?" I asked.
"You're in love with him." He said kindly.
"What? No, I'm no-" I started and then sighed. "Is it that obvious?" I asked.
"No, I just know that look. I see it on myself every time I think of Elizabeth."
I groaned. "Oh, God! I have 'The look.'" I said.
He laughed. "Love isn't so bad."
"It is when you can never be with the one you love." I said sighing.
He sighed too. "Trust me, I know what that feels like." He looked at me confused. "But why can't you get Jack? You're both pirates. And he seems to like you."
"Well Will, you need to know a couple of things about me, Ruby, and Lily, the girl who was kidnapped along with Elizabeth. But you can't tell anyone, ok?" he nodded. "Now this is going to sound far fetched as hell, but I'm telling the truth. We're from the future and we know what's going to happen. I know Jack's future and what's he's going to do and…and…" tears started again.
"You're from the future?" I nodded. "Well that explains the weird stuff that you talk about with Miss Bloom." He said and I chuckled. "Can you tell me something?" he asked and I nodded. "Will Elizabeth be happy?"
I smiled. "Will, Elizabeth loves you, you have to know that. And if the future stays on coarse you and her will have a wonderful life together, but to get there it will be hard, and some of things you go through will be awful, but it's ok, in the end you and her get together." I said. "You have to remember that."
He beamed and hugged me. "Thank you. Thank you so much." He said. "So why can't you be with Jack? Because of the future thing?"
I sighed. "Well that yes, but also because he has a very bad reputation with woman. As in having sex with him and then leaving. I can't take that, I can't be like the others." Will nodded sympathetically and hugged me.
"I'm sorry." He murmured and I smiled weakly as he left.
He was still quite happy about Liz, I could see that and I smiled a bit. 'At least one of us is happy.' I thought. About 10 minutes later Jack came down to me.
"Hey, lass." Jack said.
I forced a smile. "Hello, Capn'."
"Alex, I was just wondering what your plans were after this adventure." He said sitting down next to me.
I sighed. "Well, Jack, either the girls and I will go home or we'll stay here with you." I said.
"If ye stay with me I have to know the truth." He said.
"Truth?" I asked standing up.
He stood up with me. "Why did ye say that you loved me, but ye back away every time I make a move." He said
"Jack, please don't." I said when he moved to kiss me.
"Lass." He groaned.
"NO! Jack I can't! I can't let myself love you. You'll only hurt me and my heart can't take that. Not from you." I said
"I won't hurt ye, Alex, I promise." He said.
I made a noise of a laugh and a cry. "We both know that's a lie, Jack. How many times have you said that to a girl and then broke that promise?" He didn't answer. "I thought so." I said as a tear slid down my face. "I'm sorry, Jack." I murmured and left him standing there.
Jack's POV (Sorry if it's a bit OOC.)
I shook my head. Why was she so bloody stubborn. I guess I wouldn't actually be infatuated with her if she wasn't. But what did she mean when she said 'Not from you?'
I sighed. Lasses were so confusing. "I need rum." I muttered to myself.
WHOOP 8 ½ pages! I'm so awesome! Hehe! Guys just so you know I love your guys so much! Summer is now over and I start High School tomorrow with the Lily from my story and my friends Katie and Hannah I sometimes talk about in the story and Author notes. Although in the story Katie is Zooey and she'll have a bigger part in Dead Man's Chest.
Anyway, so you guys are absolutely amazing! I don't think I could go on with this story without all of you reviewers! So guys keep reviewing. Every time I have a bad day and I look on my email and I see that someone reviewed any of my stories my heart just swells up and I beam. So please just keep reviewing! Like I said I'm starting High School and this will probably be a hard year, especially since one of my 2 best friends, Ruby from this story, is going to a different school than me. So this is for her!
Ruby, I wish so much that you could come to my High School, but I know you can't. I love you so much! You better swear that even though we're not going to the same High School we'll get together some time soon! Besides you still have my books and I still have to watch the FMA movie at your house! Anyway, I'm going to miss you. Never leave Lily and I! I don't know what we would do without you. We'd probably fall apart and knowing our tempers we'd probably kill each other.
Again I love you so much!
Never leave us, and keep writing and drawing, you're an amazing girl!
~Maddie.
And I'd feel bad if I didn't put in a letter for Lily even though she's going to my school.
Lily, I love you so much too. The same thing that applies to Ruby applies to you, I don't know what I'd do without you or her. You both keep me, well not sane, but without you I'd probably have killed someone a long time ago or done something I would regret. Don't ever leave me! Keep writing and drawing and remember you're an amazing actress and singer. I can't wait to be with you in Choir and Theater.
~Maddie
No, I don't know what actually came over me to write all these notes, but I don't care. Maybe I'm going crazy. I don't know, all I know is in my heart I'm crying…well that sounded kinda poetic…
Well enough of this unhappy crap! If any of you guys actually read all that I'm sorry lol ^^
Anyway, I love all you guys! Review and read my other stories.
Plus rubyqueen808 stories
