Elizabeth woke with a loud boom coming from outside. She went to her window and saw a black sailed ship in the port firing cannons at the town. Torches were moving towards the house. She ran to wake up her sister but she was already up looking out the window.
"It's the ship from my dreams, Elizabeth." Catherine said as she grabbed the pistol on the desk.
Just then a gun fired from below the floor. The girls ran down the stairs to find the butler dead. Two of the pirates noticed them and ran up the stairs to get them. Catherine fired a shot at them but they didn't stop running. The girls ran into one of the rooms and Elizabeth grabbed a tray full of coals. When the pirates opened the door Elizabeth dumped the coals onto the first pirate. They screamed as the girls ran past. As they got to the bottom of the stairs the large fixtured fell into the foyer floor. They ran into the dining room and bolted the door shut. Elizabeth and Catherine ran into the closet and hid. The pirates broke in the door.
"Come out poppets. We won't hurt you too much." said Pintel, a short man with a bald head. His partner Ragetti with a loose eye ball chuckled.
"The gold calls to us. We know your here poppets." Pintel yelled as he moved towards the closet. "Hello poppets." he said as he peered into the crack in the closet.
"Parlay. We invoke the right of parlay set down by the Court of the Brethren by Pirate Captains Morgan and Bartholomew. I demand to see your captain." Elizabeth demanded as Catherine hid the pistol.
"You two will go without a fuss then." Pintel said as he and Ragetti rushed the girls out of the room.
Meanwhile in town Will Turner was fighting off the pirates when he saw the girls running with the pirates. Then all went black to him. When the girls arrived on board Pintel and Ragetti seperated them. Pintel took Elizabeth towards the stair but was stopped by a tall African man.
"We were told not to bring captives." he said.
"She invoked the right of parlay of parlay to see Captain Barbossa." Pintel explained as he backed down from the man.
"I demand to see your.." Elizabeth said as she was slapped by the man.
"Don't speak unless spoken to." he said as someone grabbed his hand.
"Don't hurt the person protected under parlay." he said as the other man walked away. "My apologizes Miss."
"Captain Barbossa, I am here for stopping engagement on Port Royale." she demanded
"Those are some pretty big words missy. We're nothing but humble pirates." he grinned his rotting teeth.
"Stop all hostiles towards Port Royale." she said again.
"I am disinclined to acquiesce your request. In other words... No." he yelled as the crew laughed.
"Then i'll drop it." Elizabbeth said as she leaned over the side with the Medallion.
"No!" the crew screamed as they moved towards her. She smiled back a them.
"What is your name?" Barbossa asked as he went towards her.
"Elizabeth Turner." she made up as she held it.
"Let me guess that's a family heirloom, right. Well hand it over and we'll stop shooting." he said as she handed over the Medallion.
"Your have to take me to shore." she yelled.
"First it wasn't a part of the agreement. Second you have to be a pirate for the Pirate's code and third there more liek guidelines. Welcome to the Black Pearl Miss Turner." he laughed as Ragetti stopped him.
"Captain. What about the other girl." he asked as he pointed her out.
Barbossa walked over to the girl and looked at her. He did this for quite sometime.
"What be your name Miss." he said as he stepped closer.
"Catherine Marshwell."she said as she stepped away from him.
"That's as beautiful name Miss Catherine." Barbossa said as he bent down and kissed her hand. "Gents. Put in my cabin with the other woman, but don't hurt her." he commanded as she was taken to his cabin where Elizabeth was. Elizabeth looked upset and tired in the corner. Catherine walked towards her but Pintel pushed into another lit room with a desk, table and bed. Then the doors shut and all went quiet.
