Chapter 11 Dutchman


They arrived on deck to be immediately greeted by a friendly face.

"Well.. Well, well Jack Sparrow.." The man looked towards the neighboring ship.

"Ah no mate Captain Jack Sparrow"

"Where's the Pearl?"

Jack sighed. "Barbossa."

The man laughed. "And who do we have here?"

Jack turned around frowning. "Oh! Um this is Jasmine.. We have another along but she decided to stay on the ship."

The man bowed and held out a hand. "I'm Bootstrap Bill."

Jasmine took it and let herself be guided out past Jack so Bootstrap could get a better look.

"You're very beautiful." Bootstrap said

Jasmine laughed slightly. "Thank you."

A younger man walked out of one of the cabins.

"Oh and I need you to.."

"Jack?"

"Will!" Jack said and stepped up.

Will looked over to the girl standing to his right.

"And a.. A girl?" Will turned towards Jack.

"Uh.. What?! Oh yes the girl" Jack motioned for her to come over. "This is Jasmine."

Will smiled and held out his hand in greeting, then frown.

"What?!" Jack asked noticing Wills decline in happiness.

"What?" Will turned to Jack. "Oh nothing."

"It's very nice to meet you Jasmine." Will said.

"Oh thank you! Would you mind if I talked to your um.." Jasmine said looking towards Bootstrap Bill, who was beaconing to her.

"Father." Will finished. "And no I wouldn't mind at all."

Jasmine smiled and walk to Bootstrap.

Will watched the girl walk to him a slight smirk played across his face. He turned back to Jack frowning.

"Isn't she a little.. Young, for you Jack?"


After about two hours Will announced he was going to visit Tia Dalma on the other ship..

"I really need to discuss some things with her." Will said going over to the other ship.

Bootstrap and Jasmine walked back out on deck after Bootstrap was finished giving her a tour.

"And that's why we're here."

"Oh that very fascinating.." Jasmine bumped into Jack "Oh sorry Jack, I wasn't watching where I was going.. Where's Will?"

"'E's over talking t'Tia Dalma.." Jack said.

Jasmine turned back to Bootstrap and thanked him for the tour.

"Oh your welcome lass, I have to go finish the job Will asked me to do earlier. Ok?"

"Sure I'll see you later.."

Bootstrap smiled then walked away.

Jack grabbed Jasmine and pulled over to the banister.

"Whoa!"

"Luv I need to ask you a few questions."

"Ok?"

"First off What did Bootstrap say about why they're 'ere?"

"He just say Will, all of a sudden, said he needed to return here.. Why is this relevant?""No reason, Secondly Did 'e say how Will's doing as the captain?"

"No we didn't talk about their life a lot.."

Jack sighed "And lastly Why were you and Tia Dalma in your cabin together right before we came over here?"

"We were talking.."

Jack stared at her trying to figure out what they could possibly be talking about.

"Ok" He put his arm around her shoulder. "So you like Will?"

"Yeah he's really nice, but why is Bootstrap the only one that stays with him?"

"I don't know luv I think it's because the father and son or somethin like that."

They both stared out into sea, Jacks arm still around Jasmine.

"You know Jazz when I get the Pearl back I have the world in the palm of my hand. We could go anywhere together. Just you and me, me and you.. Us."

Jasmine laughed. "Jack do you know how old I am?"

Jack stared at her thoughtfully. "No.."

"I'm fifteen, now considering you've already work at the EITCo and have done countless other things being a pirate.. I can assume your not still a teenager."

"Well I… Wait how did you know I worked for the East India Trading Company?"

"I know some one who worked there when you did.."

"Who?"

Jasmine shifted uncomfortably "No one.."

Jack stared at her "I'll try and get that information out of her some other time.."


Will returned about three hours after he left. Jasmine, Jack and Bootstrap were having a little fun by playing Liar's Dice for rum.

"I bid three fives." Jasmine said laughing she had won most of the games and owned most of the rum. Unfortunately she doesn't drink..

"Four sixes." Jack said angry that he was down to his last bottle of rum.

Bootstrap laughed "Five ones"

"Six ones"

Jack looked at his dice he had three ones, one five, one six.

"Seven sixes" Jack said stubbornly

Bootstrap looked at his dice three ones, one four, and one two.

"Eight ones"

Jasmine smirked as she looked at her dice four ones, and two threes.

"Ten ones."

Jack looked at her. "Liar!"

They lifted up their cups and counted.

One..

Two..

Three..

Four..

Five..

Six..

Seven..

Eight..

Nine..

Jack hung his head listening to Jasmine say "Ten."

Jasmine laughed and they handed over their last bottles.

"You guys can have them, I don't drink rum."

Jack looked at Jasmine as though she had just said something vile and despicable.

"Y-You d-don't what?" Jack asked.

Jasmine laughed. "Jack I'm only fifteen, I don't drink."

Jasmine handed them their rum back, and stood up.

Will watched the girl clean up, smiling slightly thinking..

"She one very attractive girl, and she reminds me of someone.. I just can't put my finger on who.."

"Will where does this go?" Jasmine asked holding up the dice set

He snapped out of thought "Oh! Uh… Here just give it to me I'll put it away"

He walked off to put it away.

"Well luv back to the ship?" Jack asked coming up behind Jasmine.

"Sure Jack. Let me go say goodbye to Bootstrap." Jasmine went to find him.

Will came back and walked up to Jack.

"Where's Jasmine?"

"Went t'say goodbye to yer father.."

Will smiled "Oh ok."

Jasmine and Bootstrap walked out on deck. Jasmine was smiling but Bootstrap looked appalled.

"You ready?"

"Yeah Jack I'm ready."

"Ok let's go then."

Jack started to prepare the dinghy and Jasmine started off to help him but was pulled back by a hand on her shoulder.

"Jasmine could I talk to you.. Alone?"

Jasmine looked up and saw Will standing over her.

"Sure." She said confused.

She stood up and they walked into Will's cabin.

Will closed the door and sighed.

"Jasmine Why I came back was because Tia Dalma summoned me."

She stared at Will trying to figure out why this was useful.

"Why she summoned me is.. The captain of the Flying Dutchman is the one who carries these.." Will said showing her two water colored vitals, beautifully crafted and finely detailed.

"What are they?" Jasmine asked staring at the vitals.

"They're the bottles you need for the fountain water."

"Oh.. She never said anything about specific containers."

"I know she wanted me to tell you.. The captain of the Flying Dutchman is the only person who can carry these before they get used."

Jasmine smiled "Do I need to give you anything for these?"

Will laughed "No… But I would like some information if you could.."

"Ok?"

"Why are you with Jack?"

Jasmine stared thoughtfully at Will..

"Bootstrap.." She answered simply

Will looked at her questioningly.

"You'll figure it out.. Thank you so much for the vitals." Jasmine said.

"You're welcome."

"Oi' where'd ye go? Come on we 'ave t'set sail!" Jack yelled from outside.

Jasmine laughed "Ok I have to go, thanks again!"

Jasmine ran out to Jack.

Will smiled and went to fix himself so of the tea he took from Jack.

He walked out on deck, they were boarding their ship.

Bootstrap walked up behind Will.

"I have to tell you something…"

"Hmm?" Will said as he took a sip of tea.

Bootstrap came closer and whispered something in his ear.

Will spat out his tea.. "W-W-What?!"


Ohh more flirting.. "WWWhat?!" That my friends is an answer for later.. Mmmmuuuccchh later… What ever it was must have been surprising though. Yes I am purposely doing that to you.. I'm so evil. Lol
