When I reached my temporary home, Jack was standing outside, leaning against the door. It was incredibly early in the morning at this point, so clearly he knew about the situation, or he was drunk. Likely the latter.
"Why are you here?" I asked him, and he shrugged.
"Heard about Will, thought I'd propose a plan." He smirked, surprisingly sober. He had the same mischievous look in his eyes he always had, and I knew this wouldn't end well. But Will's trial would certainly end with a hanging so it couldn't get any worse than that.
He explained his plan to me, then we decided to go to the jail and tell Will. It wasn't perfect, and knowing our karma, this was going to go terribly, then somehow manage to succeed.
Will's POV
I sat on the bench of the jail. I knew exactly how to open these gates but if I did, that wouldn't help my case. The same men who sat here coaxing the guard dog to bring them the keys were no longer here, and knowing them and their pure idiocy they likely were hung rather than attempting to escape. As for the dog, nobody knew where he disappeared to. Last anyone saw of him was on the same island as the cannibalistic tribe, but either way he had been replaced.
The sound of the tide and the creaking of ships kept me awake as I was so close to the dock, not that I would be able to sleep anyway.
I was pulled out of my daydreams by two familiar hands reaching between the bars and waving frantically for my attention. They were too large to be female, so I stood on the bench and was met face to face by the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow.
"We've come to tell you our excellent plan for your rescue!" He told me, making it sound much better than it really was. Plus is was likely going to end terribly. But what did we have to lose?
"Is Elizabeth here?" I pushed his plan to the back of my head, it was Jack, the plans were to extravagant to even attempt to remember.
"Yes, but she is keeping watch. Do you want her? I can get her. Elizabeth!" Jack spoke quickly, almost anxiously.
I watched my wife make her way over, she had changed from her dress into more casual attire, trousers and a top. I had always loved how she looked when she wasn't trying to look flawless, her beauty was always so nonchalant either way,
"You heard the plan?" She smiled while not making eye contact with me, she did that a lot. She never meant to, it was just a habit of hers to focus on something other than the person while speaking.
"Yes. It's certainly something, Although I do have a slight bit of hope in it working. I mean, it's Jack. We saved him from multiple hangings and I'm sure we can conquer the same with me."
"I would hope so. Your date is in the morning, Norrington hasn't had an ounce of power in his life so ever since he became governor he's really abusing it, and rushing things without a fair trial."
"We'll figure it out. I don't think he realizes this won't really kill me." I laughed and nodded towards the large scar on my chest that peeked out of my shirt.
Elizabeth sighed, a weight lifting off her shoulders obviously. "I forgot about that. We'll still mess with him?"
"But of course!"
Hey all, I made a instagram account so follow me! It's . Pretty lit. Lots of fun times. Lots of story updates. Possible face reveals who knowsssss.
I decided to go with shorter chapters more often, I lose interest in what I'm writing pretty quickly so this will keep everyone interested I guess, every so often they might be a bit longer. I have a feeling the next one will be long so I'm excited to sit down and write it! I'm hoping to have that up Friday night at some point since I have no school that day and plenty of time to write.
Love love love, M.
