"Let GO OF ME!" came the spiteful lyrics of Marie-flanked by Pintel and Ragetti "Hello Poppet" came the snickering duo. The fae just tugged at her arms as they folded in an attempt to forcefully pry her arms out of their clutches. The triplets were soon hauled on board as well, the youngest of whom was crying and sniffling, clinging onto her older sister.
"Oh how cuteee" rang in Pintel who had attempted to crouch down-forgetting his post.
"You idiot!" Ragetti stomped his foot, "We're supposed to be watching her!" he directed his gaze to the now glaring Marie and smiled a near toothless smile.
"You." Came Jack's nonchalant tone.
The soaked eighteen year old just narrowed her line of sighed focusing on the pirate with a grimace.
"What's your name." He asked.
When no response played, Ragetti forcefully shoved her side, " The Captain asked you a question."
Marie just huffed, as if the corset wasn't tight enough already, all the stress, and now the pressure and pain inflicted by this idiot made her whole body quake.
Catching her pale composure, Jack reached out half way, only to flinch as the girl had fallen to her knees after impact. "Ooo…. That wasn't necessary " His voice, an attempted authoritative tone.
"Sorry, Cap' she-"
The sound of a heavy body falling on planks of wood made the girls scream
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Pintel's eyes dropped to the lump on the ground, " She fainted.."
Remembering Elizabeth Swan's antics shook his head, "Hold up a moment!" Jack called out making his way towards the girl. Kneeling down rolled up his sleeves as if he would soil his already dirty frock. "Do any of you remember our trip to Singapore? It was not, twenty years ago.." he began cautiously as he looked for the coat that would yield the corset beneath. When he realized it was built in he felt really awkward. "This is not malicious- am just being.. professional.." He seemed to call out to no one in particular, feeding the anticipation of the crew who seemed to goggle at the sight, completely ignoring the girl in the transparent toga who hid behind her sisters.
"What about Singapore?" came an angry woman's voice as heavy booted steps seemed to stomp their way into the scene. "SPARROW!" she hollered angrily the moment the man had cut open the built in corset making the young teen gag and throw up water as she turned to the side. Eyes turned to her torn dress and the man who was hovering over her, "AHHHH PERVERT!" she then released a fist that sent Jack tumbling to the side until he met the eyes of Angelica. Shrinking under her gaze, quickly sat up and rubbed his bleeding lip. "I… DID NOT deserve that.." his vocals seemed to float up at really awkward tangents.
The lad from before broke out in laughter, "Pfft hahahahahahaaaa"
Jack just eyed the lad with a "you-find-this-funny-" look as he stood back up wobbling in his signature drunken style. Standing straight turned to his crew and spoke quite loudly, "So this is the thanks I get.. for saving you lot!" he then turned to Marie who now stood gripping the front of her dress, taking a defensive stance. "Tell you what. How about I just drop you off the next port?"
"Parley" came an angry voice.
"Who said that?" Jack spat eyeing the four girls.
"I did." Came the angry tunes of Marie.
"Did you not just hear.. ? I am offering you youuuuur freedommm." His extended vowels and consonants gave him the drunken persona that led Marie and the girls to hold a heavy doubt upon his words.
"Parley. I invoke the right of Parley, According to the Code of the Brethren-"
All the while, while the girl reiterated the exact phrase that nagged the back of his memory, he was forced to stare at the girl. She really did look like a younger Miss Swan, yet she carried the piercing gaze of Will..The words the girl seemed to speak seemed but a breath of wind upon his existence, for all he could focus on was her features.
Angelica who'd noticed Jack's staring rolled her eyes and beckoned ,"Jack!" she called, only to find no response.. "Jack!" she yelled again. Being extremely hot tempered at that moment, yelled, "JACK!"
"Gizelle!" Jack seemed to blurt out.
Angelica's eyes flared, "Who's Gizelle?" came the thick Spanish accent.
Shrinking under her gaze Jack quickly turned his attention to the girl who was still continuing her banter, ".. you have to take me to your Captain."
Blinking blankly Jack paused… "Right." Placing a heavy arm across Marie's shoulders and started walking towards the helm, " Help yerselves lads, dessert all around!"
With an uproar the sounds of the screams rose filling the sky, Marie tried to get free but Jack had a firm hold. "You fiend!"
"Flattery will get you everywhere" he added shoving her towards the young lad who she'd practically stabbed just moments earlier. "There ya go lad, yer birthday present."
"WHAT?!" Marie hissed.
Angelica face palmed her temples, and shot a round to the sky, "ENOUGH!"
Pin drop silence swooped across the deck. " So help me Jack.." Came the threatening tones of the fae.
Chuckling straightened up, " You three" Came the authoritative and sane sounding Captain. "Which berth do you wish to make port?"
The three sisters exchanged blank glances before Jack continued, "Where is your place of origin?" Seeing no response called out to the lad, "Boy, tell your girl friend to translate to this here lot, that I mean to drop them home."
Marie could tell that this boy was trying to keep his anger a tone down, as he shoved her towards the trio. "You heard him.." the boy's tone drew low notes.
As suspicious as she was Marie turned to Jack, "What's the catch?"
"Am insulted! Here I am out of the goodness of me' eart-"
Marie felt a vein pulse underneath her hair, "Okay Okay. Don't pop a blood vessel." Turning to the trio sighed. "It's all right, you will be home very soon.. "
The youngest of the three piped up, "So we're going to Scotland?"
"Scotland?" Jack muttered under his breath.
Frowning slyly Marie turned challengingly, "You heard, Scotland."
"You must be joking.." Jack protested.
Mr. Gibbs chimed in "At this time of year it will be covered in ice!?"
"We will work-" prompted the middle sister as she looked towards her sisters, "We will work our wages until we make port and-"
"And what may you bonny lasses be able to do aye!?" Jack asked amused.
"Well me and my sisters know how to cook, we were the chef's daughters back 'ome" chimed the oldest in a Scottish accent.
"Well that's settled." Jack turned to Marie, " And what can you do, aside from being all pretty?"
Marie didn't meet his sarcasm very well, "I-"
"Mr. Greigore." Jack called out.
"Aye Cap'n?" chimed the lad who ignored Marie's wide eyed stare.
"Didn't you say we needed a new cabin boy? Being that you were promoted an-all?"
"Yes, Cap'n"
"Well, " Jack turned to Marie "Congrats you're hired!"
Stuttering Marie began to protest, "Wait-what? You-"
"Welcome aboard the Black Pearl Meh-Lady" Jack then dusted off Marie's Trecorne hat and placed it upon his head, "You can thank me later." With that said he turned in that same circular drunken motion, as he turned to the crew. "Mr. Gibbs!"
"Aye Captain."
"Set a course for.. Scotland.." Jack shuddered at the thought, "With a detour at Tortuga- we need to restock supplies and gather a fresh set of hands so to speak."
"Aye Captain."
Angelica hovered around the three soaked girls and issued them below, "Let's get you girls dried up huh?" Turning to Marie issued her with her eyes making the eighteen year old sigh and make her way towards her.
"Where do you think you're going love?" Chimed in Greigore.
Seriously not in the mood just skipped his comment and walked over to Angelica.
Jack had walked up to the boy and placed a heavy arm across the lad's shoulders. "You really need to work on your people skills."
Scowling just threw the heavy arm off and stomped away.
Jack shrugged, "What's his problem." Eyes to his beloved compass snickered. "Well my friend looks like we're going to have another detour once again."
