Here we go! Swash buckling pirate fights! Black smith vs. Pirate. Place your bets now! Oh my god! Guess what? Chicken butt. Guess why! Chicken thigh. Guees who! Chicken poo. Yeah I know, the last one was kinda inappropriate.

Remember I don't own pirates. Just me, my sister, Chelsea, and any other people you don't recognize.


Xio and Chelsea were just discussing the fact that they were going to meet Captain Jack Sparrow when Will opened the door to the black smith's. The first thing they noticed was Will's donkey running in circles, making all the gears shift and turn. Will ran to the donkey rubbing its nose to calm it down.

"I will have Jack on animal abuse for this!" Xio said quietly to Chelsea. Will looked around and spotted Mr. Brown in his drunken stupor.

"Right where I left you," Will said pulling his jacket off and throwing it on his worktable. Something caught his eye though. There was an empty peg on the wall and its sledge hammer lying beside his work anvil.

"Not where I left you," He noticed Jack's hat sitting on another of his work anvils and reached for it.

"I wouldn't grab that mate," Xio pointed out but Jack's sword blade had already slapped Will's hand before he could make contact with it. Jack stood there, sword leveled at Will. He backed Will up, toward the door. Will glared at him.

"Never mind," They both said going off to the pile of barrels Alexia was sitting on.

"Hey girlfriend! How was it with Jack?" Chelsea asked Alexia as they settled in to watch the show.

"Dunno, he's a bit soft in the head sometimes and smells of rum. But over all he's cool." Alexia said swinging her legs.

"You're the one they're hunting. The Pirate." Will said the last word with such disgust Alexia actually felt bad for Jack. Jack acknowledged this with a tip of his head then frowned.

"He's a better pirate than you'll ever be!" Alexia shouted at Will who turned and stared.

"Be quiet Xio!" He said pointing finger at Alexia. She looked positively offended.

"Terribly sorry Will but I'm Alexia not Xio," She said gesturing towards Xio who took a bow, with is hard to do from her sitting position on the barrel. Alexia gave Jack a look and he raised his sword higher.

"You seem some what familiar. Have I threatened you before?" Jack asked.

"Nice one Jack but think, it'll come to ya!" Chelsea yelled. Jack gave her an odd look and ignored her.

"I make point to avoid familiarity with pirates." Will said with the ugliest look on his face. Jack lowered his sword.

"Ah, well then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record so if you'll excuse me, come on luv," Jack said stepping back to grab his hat. Will quickly grabbed a sword of his own and pointed it at Jack. Jack seemed unimpressed.

"You think this wise, boy? Crossing blades with a pirate?"

"You threatened Miss Swann," Will said holding his sword steady as Jack ran his sword against it.

"Only a little," In response, Will assumed an en garde position. Jack evaluated him, unhappy to see Will knew what he was doing. Jack lunged forward and attacked. The two men stood in one place, trading feints, thrusts and parries with lightning speed, almost impossible to follow. Will had no trouble matching Jack.

"So what are we going to do next?" Alexia asked Chelsea and Xio.

"I don't know but I'm going with Elizabeth when she's kidnapped. Ooo I get to meet Pintel and Ragetti," Chelsea scratched her head," I guess after this I'll have to go back to the manor."

"Yeah and Alexia we have to switch or I'm goin kill Will soon," Xio said sticking a thumb over her shoulder at Will. He and Jack were now talking about footwork but since the girls knew all of the words of the movie by heart they barely paid attention.

"You know what you're doing, I'll give you that. Excellent form! But how's your footwork?" Jack said as he took a step around an imaginary circle. Will stepped the other way, maintaining his relationship to Jack.

"If I step here..." Jack side stepped and attacked Will who easily parried it," Very good! Now I step again."

Jack moved in a circle swinging at Will until they were exactly opposite of their initial positions. Jack stopped and gave Will a small bow.

"Ta!" he climbed up to the door and had his hand on the handle when Will threw his sword.

It struck its mark right above the latch so the door could not be opened. Jack first tried to lift the latch, to no avail, then began to jiggle the sword roughly. Jack mouthed a curse before spinning around to give Will an evil smile.

"That is a wonderful trick-" He pulled out his sword against the unarmed Will, "- except, once again you are between me and my way out and-" Jack gestured to the back door with his sword, "- you have no weapon."

Never looking away from Jack, Will whipped out a red-hot sword that had been resting in the furnace. Jack slumped alittle before leaping forward. When the donkey saw the glowing sword it squealed and started the gear shifting again. They began fighting once more around the main support for Will's machine. Jack looked around at all the bladed weapons laying about.

"Who makes all these?" Jack asked swinging again. Alexia raised her hand smiling like a crazy person while Will popped around the other side of the support beam.

"I do," he swung at Jack while he threw hammers at him," And I practice with them three hours a day!" Will said proudly. The girls rolled their eyes simultaneously.

"You need to find your self a girl, mate." Jack ran around grabbing everything and anything to throw at Will but he dodged the hammers and lunged at him.

"Or perhaps the reason you practice three hours is that you already found one and are incapable of wooing said strumpet." Jack gave Will the oddest of looks.

"You're not a Eunuch are you?" Jack looked down and all the girls started giggling.

"EUNUCH, EUNUCH!!" They sang as Will gave them all dirty looks but they just kept giggling.

"I practice three hours a day so that when I meet a pirate I can KILL it!" Will shouted and pushed Jack away with his sword and kicking up another to fight with.

They then started fighting, blades flashing, on an unstable titter totter wagon. Jack swung the chain still attached around his wrist, smashing them against Will's sword. The chain wrapped around Will's cutlass and he takes the moment to twist the blade through a link and stab it into the beam above them. Jack only had one hand now.

"COME ON JACK!"

"YEAH DON"T BE A WIMP!"

"KICK HIM TO THE CURB JACK!

Jack started swinging like mad, then found a loose board and hit Will in the face with it. As Will fell backwards Jack hoisted himself upside and using his full weight he finally managed to yank his cutlass free. Unfortunately Will got back up on the wagon just as Jack fell from the beam, shooting him high into the rafters.

"That can't be good for a man his age," Xio commented lightly in a British accent. Chelsea giggled. Jack rolled back into the small unrising that lead to the front door. He got up, shaking his head, and looked around for Will.

"Look up you mangy DOG!" Xio screamed as Chelsea and Alexia hugged each other laughing.

Jack looked up and smiled at Will in the rafters. Will smiled back and cut loose a case of barrels spending Jack up into the rafters too. Jack pulled himself up and moved to the right so Will couldn't reach.

"Don't let him get in your head!" Alexia shouted from her barrel. They were all in tears from laughing so hard.

Will went to the right then back to the left quickly confusing Jack who moved but moved back so he was in front of Will.

"Float like a butterfly, Sting like a BEE!" Chelsea screamed laughing hard and falling off of her barrel. Alexia and Xio came down too holding their sides and laughing like retarded hyenas.

As they fought in the rafters Jack sidestepped Will and tried to get down. But Will beat him to it so Jack grabbed the bellow beside him and sprayed Will in the face with red sand. Before Will could open his eyes, Jack kicked the sword out of his hand and brought out his pistol. Alexia, Chelsea, and Xio popped their head over the tops of the barrels just in time to see Will hold up a hammer and open his eyes.

"NO!" All three girls gasped as Jack pointed the pistol right in Will's face. Will however looked confused.

"You cheated." Will stated, shocked.

"Pirate." Jack said like that made everything right. The Commodore and his men started beating on the front door. Will hurried to cover the back door again.

"Move away." Jack voice was hard but he didn't want to fight again.

"No." Will said as Alexia came up beside him and held her cutlass towards Jack. Jack looked confused and sad that his friend had turned on him. That is until Xio walked up beside Jack and held her sword to Alexia.

"So you've chosen your side then?" Xio asked as Chelsea ran up.

"Reckon I have." Alexia said raising her sword.

"Stop it you guys! Your sister's for crepes sake!" She said but didn't bother to stop them. She knew they had made up their minds.

"Please move." Jack said very nicely, both Will and Alexia shook their heads.

"No, I can not just step aside and let you escape!" Will said eying the front door again.

Jack cocked his pistol and pointed at Will again.

"This shot is not meant for you!" He said but Will just stared at him.

"What the freck?" Alexia said quickly as Mr. Brown brought his bottle down on Jack's head.

Xio knelt down to help Jack as the Navy came bursting through. Alexia gave Chelsea a look telling her to go and she quietly exited through the back door. The guards surrounded Xio and Jack as the Commodore came up.

"Excellent work Mr. Brown you've assisted in the capture of a dangerous criminal." Norrington said putting his gun away.

"Just doing my civic duties," Will and Alexia shared a look, he still sounded way too drunk to be awake.

"Well I trust that you will always remember this is the day Captain Jack Sparrow almost escaped. Take him away." Xio moved away from Jack as the guards picked him up.

"What about these two Sir?" Gillette asked grabbing Xio and Alexia by the wrists.

"Commodore , they're under my charge." Will spoke up. Alexia gave him a grateful look but Xio glared.

"No I'm not! I'm under the charge of Captain Jack Sparrow!" Xio yelled and spat at Will's feet. Gillette let go of Alexia and grabbed Xio's other wrist.

"Come on we will let her stay in the brig with her Captain." They all laughed and dragged both Jack and Xio away. Alexia felt sad watching them go but she knew she'd see Xio again tomorrow. She looked at Will.

"Thanks for the save Will." She gave him a hug. He grabbed her shoulders and held her at arms length. He looked her over.

"Well, you did stand up for me so I could not let you go to the brig with that Pirate." Will smiled and so did Alexia. She looked him over and laughed.

"You got a little something on your face." Alexia said pointing to her own face while Will blindly swiped at his.

"Got it?" He asked. Half of the dirt on his face was gone so Alexia grabbed a rag and had to rub the rest off with spit and elbow grease.

"Got it." Alexia smiled looking over her work. Will smiled unknowingly, he had not noticed when she had spit in the rag to remove the dirt.

"Come on, I have some work to get done. Would you like to watch?" He asked showing her some of his tools at his workstation. What was Xio talking about hanging with Will is kinda of fun, Alexia thought and she sat on a barrel, munching messily on a mango he had offered her, and watched him work.


And there you go. Review! I made chocolate éclair pie. Yummy!
