Chapter 7
Elizabeth was on a boat heading towards the Black pearl. When the butler was shot she had run into the chamber and hid in the armoire. Most unfortunately the ugly vile pirates had found her because of the gold madalion around her neck.
Apparently the gold "calls" to the pirates. Now she was stuck on a bloody pirate ship all because of the stupid madalion that she had taken from Will when she and her sisters had found him. Her thoughts were interrupted as the pirates pushed onto the ship
"I didn't know we were takin on captives.", said one of the pirates with a glare.
"She's invoked the right of parley with Captain Barbossa.", said the fat pirate that had captured her. She stepped forward.
"I am here to negotiateā¦", she is stopped when she is backhanded by Boson.
"You will speak when spoken to.", he said towering above her
A man with a long beard and a creepy looking monkey on his shoulder grabs Bosons wrist, "And he'll not lay a hand on those under the protection of parley."
"Aye, sir.", Boson said stepping back
"My apologies, Miss", the captain said kindly. But Elizabeth wasn't fooled. She hated pirates and this man was no different. She boldly stepped forward
"Captain Barbossa, I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal.", she said showing off her superiority to these vile creatures. The captain smiled.
"There are a lot of long words in there, Miss; were not but humble pirates.", he said with a hearty laugh, "What is it that you want?"
This pirate was treating her like a child! Couldn't he see how inferior he was compared to her. She glared at him, "I want you to leave and never come back.", she spat.
The smile faded off of the captains face, "I am disinclined to acquiesce to your request", he paused and leaned forward, "means no."
"Very well. Ill drop it.", she stepped up to the edge of the ship and ripped of the chain and dangled the medallion over the sea.
Barbossa laughed once again, "Me holds are burstin' with swag and that bit of shine matters to us? Why?", he shot her a suspicious look.
Elizabeth was puzzled, "Its what you've been searching for.", she said, "I recognized the ship. I saw it eight years ago on the crossing from England."
"Did ya now?", said the captain with a smirk.
"Fine, well,", she said catching on, "I suppose if it is worthless then there's no point in me keeping it.", she drops it a bit, the pirates lunge forward. She presses her lips together satisfied with herself.
"Ah.", Barbossa chuckles, "You have a name, Missy?"
"Elizabeth", she pauses not wanting to give away her real identity, "Turner. I'm a maid in the Governors household.", she curtsies.
"Miss Turner!" Barbossa whispered happily, "And how does a maid come to own a trinket such as that. Family heirloom, perhaps?"
she didn't like these pirates, "I didn't steal it if that's what you mean."
"Very well,", he said holding out his hand, "you hand it over and well put your town to our rudder and never return."
Elizabeth hands it over, "Our bargain?", she says, as Barbossa hand the coin to his monkey and walks away.
"Still the guns and stow em.", yells one of the pirates.
Elizabeth couldn't believe this, "Wait! You have to take me to shore. According to the code of the order of the brethren -", once again she was interrupted.
Barbossa marched back up to her, "First of all, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirates code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules.", he paused and with a wicked smile said, "Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner."
