Well I am hoping that you are all enjoying this story. Please Review to tell me what you think of it please.

Chapter 10: A Killer's Life For Me

Sweeney paced around in his shop, every once and a while he would look at the young woman that was asleep on the barber's chair. He wondered why she was avoiding feelings. Usually pirates would never avoid their feelings towards others, unless they were afraid of something coming to get them for the crimes that they committed in the past. What he was committing now wasn't much different than what the pirates did, but what was bothering his pet? He walked over to the chair and carefully brushed the strands of hair off of her face. He knew that she didn't look much like Lucy, but she was a woman who was out for revenge for her dead mother. What more could he want? Someone as much dead-set on killing someone else - much like himself. He took a closer look at the woman that was now sleeping in his barber chair, with the moonlight shining off of her golden hair gave her an angelic look to her person, the black dress was clearly two sizes too big for her by the way that she was sleeping, and the trinkets in her hair shined in the moonlight. He had no idea what the trinkets meant to her and clearly it was a meaning of some importance.

"Easy there Morgan, you wouldn't want to be swimming into Davey Jones' locker, luv." Maria said walking down to the deck below. The sun shined off of the trinkets in her hair.

Jack came down after putting a rope on the wheel to keep them going in the straight path that they were going now. "By the way you do things luv, I can see why my father named you Pirate Lord of Madagascar." Jack said placing a kiss on Maria's lips.

Maria smiled and looked at her husband. "Look at it this way Jackie, Morgan will become the Pirate Lord of the Caribbean. Taking after you, luv."

Morgan smiled at both of her parents. "When are we going to see Grandfather Teague, father?"

"Soon." Jack said smiling at his young daughter.

Morgan shot up sweating. That dream was going to get on her nerves while she was here on land. They were happy long ago when they were sailing the seas being the pirates that they were. Now with her mother dead there was no Pirate Lord of Madagascar and her here on land there was no Pirate Lord of the Caribbean Sea and no Pirate Lord of the South China Sea. She saw Sweeney pacing around and knew that he must've been at it all night long. "Mr. T?" She asked, finally finding her voice.

Sweeney's eyes shot over to her frame that was still in the barber chair.

"Were you up all night?"

Sweeney didn't say nothing, but Morgan knew that he was up all night long, probably watching her sleep.

"I am taking a stab at it - you were awake all night. Why would you stay up? Surely you have something better to do than watch over me all night long."

"It is too late for that. It is time to open the shop up."

"I will go and change then." Morgan said getting up out of the chair. She quickly got into a bag and pulled out a violet dress. She carefully slipped into the other room and changed into the violet dress that Elizabeth had given to her. It hardly hugged her curves except for the top which was rather fitting for a woman of her status. It made her feel a tad bit more whorish than the black dress did, but it would have to do. She walked back into the other room and put the black dress into the bag.

Sweeney's breath got caught in his throat. Morgan looked absolutely stunning to him now. She was in a violet dress that was dark enough to match the black heart that she had. His eyes racked over her body. "Turpin would want her, that is if he would come into the shop." Sweeney thought, just then the bell rang. His eyes shot up to see Judge Turpin standing there. "Judge Turpin." Sweeney said, causing Morgan to quickly look up. "What a pleasant surprise."

"Have you changed your company barber?" Asked Judge Turpin, looking at Sweeney as if he was a mad man.

"Yes, sir, sit sir sit." Sweeney said with a smile that was fake.

Turpin looked at Morgan. "You got wonderful tastes in women if I do say so myself. What is your name my dear?" He asked, as his eyes raked over her body.

Morgan felt a shiver of disgust come over her as she felt his eyes wander over her body. "It is Morgan Turner."

"I've never seen you here before Miss Turner. Are you related to the Pirate captain William Turner?" Judge Turpin asked his eyes still on her figure. His eyes were filled with lust.

"He is daft in the head, me own cousin." Morgan said moving next to Sweeney. "I am Mr. Todd's assistant." She bowed her head in sign of respect.

"I am not in here for a shave Mr. Todd. I just came here to see if you were getting better company. I will be sure to stop in sometime soon seeing the fact that you are getting better company." He said motioning his head over to Morgan.

Morgan stepped behind Sweeney so she didn't have to feel the eyes of the judge on her.

Sweeney nodded his head. "If you say so sir." He felt Morgan tremble behind him, he knew that she was scared of this man, but he was going to teach her not to be afraid of him. Of course he knew that Turpin would probably sentence her to death before the week was out if he found out that she was a pirate of all things.

Judge Turpin left the two of them to stand together.

Sweeney turned around and faced her. "You are afraid of him, yet you want to kill him."

"You didn't see what I saw, Mr. T." Morgan said, now looking up at him with tears in her eyes.

The tears in Morgan's eyes made Sweeney's heart ache, he had no idea or he had forgotten what she had said about what Turpin did to her mother. He thought it would be a good idea not to go into it with her at the moment. He pulled her close to him as he looked out the window, he pulled her closer when he saw the judge looking up into the barber shop, and he didn't want Morgan to see the judge looking up at them. Now, he just wished to keep the judge away from this pirate lady that he now had a fondness for. He glared at the judge.

Morgan looked up at Sweeney after feeling his arms get tighter around her body, and now she noticed that he was glaring at the streets below. Morgan slowly turned around and the color drained from her face, the judge was staring at them, and by the look in his eyes, he held lust in them only for her. Morgan quickly turned into Sweeney burying her head into his shirt.

Sweeney felt her head against his chest and he rubbed her back reassuring her that the judge would not get to her like he had done in the past getting with other women. "He isn't going to touch you." He whispered into her ear, hoping it would give her some comfort.

Morgan lifted her head up from his shirt and looked into his eyes. "How can you be so sure, Mr. T? He gets what he wants. If he gets his hands on me I am as good as in Davey Jones' locker."

"He won't touch you. I promise you that. I will slit his throat before he touches you." He whispered again in her ear.

Morgan thought about what he said and leaned up and kissed him softly on the lips. She pulled away quickly blushing some. "Sorry."

Sweeney didn't say anything except for crashing his lips onto hers in a sweet, yet tender loving kiss. He hated to admit that he had started to fall for her, a pirate of all people, a stealing, breathing, beautiful, sea-loving, adventurous, murderous pirate. He didn't know how it happened, it just did, and to him it felt great to finally have a woman kissing him in his barber shop.

Morgan pulled away. "And if he sends you to prison?"

"He will die before he does that."

Morgan looked up into his eyes. "Even though I am scared of him, Mr. T, you are right about him dying before he can send you away again on a false charge."

Sweeney captured her lips again in another sweet, tender, loving kiss.

Morgan closed her eyes and deepened the kiss. "How am I going to explain to him that I have to return to the sea as soon as possible after the judge is dead?" The kiss felt perfect to her and that was all that mattered to her at the moment. Her heart was beating faster and she hoped that Sweeney didn't notice it.

Sweeney pulled away and pushed a strand of hair out of her eyes. "You are safe here, like you would be out on sea."

Morgan nodded her head. "Aye, safe is good."

"I won't let nothing happen to you, you have my word." He whispered into her ear.

Morgan shivered as his hot breath touched her skin. "Mr. T. I understand that."

"Good." He said brushing the strand of hair out of her eyes. He looked closely at the beads she had in her hair. "These beads..."

"Yes?"

"What do they mean?" He asked looking at the Chinese beads and the other beads that were in her hair.

"The beads? The Chinese beads are for me being the Pirate Lord of the South China Sea and the Caribbean style beads are for me being Pirate Lord of the Caribbean Sea."

"Ah, I see."

Morgan looked down and let out a sigh. Being a pirate lord of two places wasn't easy. One place was enough, the Caribbean was enough to take care of and the crew. Since she was young she knew that she was going to be the Pirate Lord of the Caribbean, but now she was having other thoughts.

"Is there something wrong my pet?"

Morgan looked up. "There is nothing wrong Mr. T. I just realized how much I need to return to the sea once this is over."

"Return to the sea? Are you going to be welcomed back out there?"

"I have a life out there on the sea Mr. T. It is where I belong. I know that I am going to be the most feared Pirate out on the sea because I am already a murderer." Morgan said, with a smirk. "Besides you would be a wanted man. You would have to do something about that."

"Yes, I suppose you are right."

"Once the judge is dead, I can return to the sea." She said looking down at the ground. "You can come out to sea if you wish to."

"I am not sure if I could." Sweeney said burying his head into her soft golden locks.

"Are you afraid of the sea?"

Sweeney didn't say anything.

Morgan pulled away from him. "You are afraid of the sea."

Meanwhile on the Misty Lady it docked in London. Maria looked at Teague. "I cannot go onto land Teague."

Teague nodded his head. "I know that Captain Maria. I will talk to her." Teague said, getting off of the ship. "Be careful not to be seen."

Maria nodded her head. "Yes."

Teague walked away from his ship.

Maria watched Teague walk away from the ship. "Please Teague, talk some sense into your granddaughter. She needs you. She needs to know what is going on. She needs to know that the Sparrow family is in danger. The whole pirate race will be doomed if we don't stop what is coming." Maria thought as she hid in the brig.

Back in Sweeney's shop Sweeney was busy running his fingers through her hair.

Mrs Lovett came into the barber shop. She saw her Sweeney running his fingers through that filthy pirate woman's hair. "What is going on in here?" Mrs. Lovett asked fuming, after seeing what she just saw between Sweeney and Morgan.

Sweeney pulled back from Morgan. His eyes shot over to Mrs. Lovett. "Nothing, Mrs. Lovett."

Mrs. Lovett glared at Morgan. "I thought I threw you out? You aren't welcome here. You are a pirate!"

Morgan sighed. "A pirate who can't go back out on the sea." She hissed out to Mrs. Lovett.

Sweeney shook his head. "She will be staying with me Mrs. Lovett until she returns to the sea."

Mrs. Lovett's eyes softened. "Mister T. She cannot stay here. Someone is going to find out that she is a pirate. She is going to send us to the gallows."

Morgan moved away from Sweeney. "It is better than being shot."

Mrs. Lovett looked at Sweeney. "How can she help you? She is a meddling pirate after all. She could very well go to the Beadle."

"I would rather die than go to the Beadle. I would be hung if I went there."

"Then we would have one less problem." Mrs. Lovett said glaring at Morgan. She hated Morgan as of now, but how was she going to get rid of her?

Morgan scoffed.

"Mrs. Lovett leave us."

"But Mister T."

"Leave Mrs. Lovett."

Mrs. Lovett stormed away from the two of them.

The bell rang as someone came in for a shave. "Mr. Todd."

Sweeney faced the man that came into the room. "Ah yes sir?"

"I came here for a shave."

A fake smile came to Sweeney's face. "My apprentice will be giving you a shave." Sweeney said directing his head towards Morgan.

"But she is female."

Morgan's eyes darkened. "I am good at this trade, just like Mr. Todd here."

"Well, I see that you could give me a shave Miss..."

"Turner."

"Sit, sir, sit." Sweeney said motioning for him to sit in the chair.

The man took a seat in the evil barber chair.

"Miss Turner?"

"Yes, Mr. Todd?"

"Get ready for your shave."

Morgan nodded her head. "Yes, Mr. Todd." She said as she began to drape the client for his shave. She looked up and saw the look in Sweeney's eyes. He wanted to see blood and she knew it. She put the soap on his face and a smirk came to her lips. She quickly picked up the razor and slit the man's throat. Blood sprayed up onto her face and chest.

Sweeney came over and put his foot on the lever sending the body to the bake house.

Morgan looked at him.

Sweeney ran his fingers on her cheeks where the blood was and he leaned in for a kiss.

Morgan dropped the razor that she held in her hand. She pulled back from him. "We need to be more careful Mr. T."

Sweeney took a deep breath in. "I suppose you are right."

Morgan nodded her head. "Of course I am right."

Sweeney moved his hand away from Morgan's blood covered face. His fingers were red from the blood that he had taken off of her face.

Morgan looked down. "I am sorry Mr. T. I shouldn't have said anything."

Sweeney looked at her. "You are different Miss Sparrow."

Morgan smirked. "Of course I am Mr. T."

Sweeney captured her red lips with his once again. He ran his tongue on her lower lip tasting the blood that was on her lower lip.

Morgan groaned. She loved feeling this man's lips on hers. She had never really been kissed by a serial killer much like him.

Sweeney pulled away from her. "We have a long day today."

Morgan nodded her head. "Aye."

Meanwhile Teague walked down the paths of London trying to see where his granddaughter would be. He wanted her safe and London wasn't a safe place for any pirate, not even a strong one like Morgan.
