Chapter 3: Trapped Into Another Time.
After she swam to this island, Lara stood up to her waist in the water. She was aware of her new surroundings and being in a different year. Like well over 250 years back perhaps. She floated to the shoreline. She walked towards the ladder to the docks and rocks right beside it. Not far from her were the docks on 1 side and this had caught her eye immediately. This surprised her all the way. There were some of the old ships during the 1700's indeed. She definitely ain't livin' in New Jersey anymore. When she was a kid, Marty would tell her and Jeff a lot of stories of the Pirates of the Caribbean and the ships that sail the seas. "Whoa." Lara was amazed and shocked at the same time. She climbed up onto the dock on the other side and walked past the people, who were dressed on old time clothes. Some of the men and women looked at her like 'what in the world is she wearing?' Lara only had a pair of swimming shoes, a tank top shirt and a pair of men's swimming trunks that goes to knee level. She certainly don't dress the way these people do, during the 1700's. This was way different than the clothes from the 21st Century.
When Lara walked towards more into town, she came up to a couple woman with blonde hair and a yellow dress. The other woman with brown hair and a red dress. "Um excuse me, ladies. Maybe you guys can help me out here." Lara said as the women named, Gissele and Scarlett turned around when the girls looked at her with their eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Scarlett and Gissele looked at Lara up and down. "I was wondering if you don't mind me saying. What island am I on at least?" She asked kindly to them.
Both Gissele and Scarlett looked from Lara to look at each other like 'Where does this girl come from?' The girls looked back at her once again. "Oh, you darling girl, you're in a town of Tortuga, love. Why do you ask, girl?" Scarlett asked her. Gissele just grinned at Lara, but was curiously as to wondering about her. Where did she really come from and where did she get those clothes from indeed? From the way that Lara was dressed.
Lara looked at them with her eyes widened in confusion and her lips parted when she quietly sighed, but even though, she took their words for it. "Uh, thank you ladies. Okay just asking that's all." She replied to her question and at this she said her goodbyes and she bid them a good day, before she walked away. She walked more into town and she saw a man, who was wearing a dark clothing and a hat with a big feather on it and some Pirates walking right behind him into an unknown building. Lara had wondered what building that would be. She walked by rushing further up the road to see what the hell was going on while people gave her looks when she walked up the dirt road. Although, Lara was letting her clothes air dry. She didn't care if they were wet, or dry. But now, she was trapped into another time. Lara had a gut feeling that she may never come back home ever again to her family, unless there's a rain storm and choppy waters come back from mother nature someday. She was rather curious of where those Pirates were heading indeed. She was new at this discovery to her.
Meanwhile, the witch lady's messenger came inside and he told her that the woman from the future is here in Tortuga. He did described her well to her. Shansa grinned at this. She knew that she would come here. So she told him that the woman may need weapons and she may need to accompany Barbossa and his crew to help and meet the Brethren Court and to help fight a war soon. She also told her messenger that the red coat soldiers would come soon and cause a fight and maybe also capture her, because she was a witch. After they talked a bit, she told him to go to the table and wait for a meeting to start. Then there was a firm few knocks on the door. Shansa walked over to the door and she opened it and she saw Hector Barbossa along with Jack, the monkey in front of her with his crew. The witch lady stood aside and she let Barbossa in along with Tia Dalma, Elizabeth Swann, Gibbs, Ragetti, Pintel, Marty and Cotton and his parrot in. After she closed the door, Shansa walked over towards her cauldron. She was scooping something like a slimy green from the cauldron and she poured it into a smooth wooden cup. "I have been expecting you, Captain and crew men. Perhaps you would all like some tea?" She asked them, before she drank it from her cup. She licked her lips to get the green stuff off her lips.
The crew behind Hector waved their hands while they said their no thank you's politely to her. Barbossa looked at what she had in her hand and in her cup and he had the disgusted look on his face when he saw what it was. How could she even drink that stuff. "I shall pass. Thank you kindly." He said, before he gave Shansa a pouch of coins for her. "Now, what shall we speak about that ye know of, Shansa?" Hector asked her.
Shansa turned to look at Barbossa and the crew with a wicked toothy grin. Barbossa knew by the look of her that something was up. She knew that the woman was here in town. "My messenger over here." She said, gesturing them to Liam. "Just told me that moments before you came here, captain that the future woman is here in Tortuga from the waters. " The witch lady told him. And at her words, only Shansa and her messenger, Liam knew and quite aware of Lara's coming from a different time. But Hector and the others were now talking about who this woman may be and where she was from originally. Shansa turned to look at Liam and she told him to get the weapons for Barbossa and his crew and that definitely includes Lara for the up coming fight against the red coats along with Lord Beckett's Armada fleet and other unknown nasty Pirates, such as Davy Jones. Liam walked out of the room to get the weapons that they do need for up coming battle to come.
While the others were talking about this unknown lady to them, Hector was wondering about this lady person was indeed from the future. What she she was like. What does she do for a living. Would he like her though? Perhaps so. He wanted to know of who this lady is. "Shansa, who's this woman from the future that'd ye speak of. Aye? He asked the witch lady in wondering. The others behind him were looking at her, wondering as well of what the fucking hell was she was really talking about.
Just then, Hector and everyone in the room looked at Liam as the messenger walked back into the room as he brought in hatchet axes, daggers, swords and pistols and Liam even brought in some quite a few bomb grenades along with some clothes to be changing into. Oh boy,the witch lady really does have her ways. Shansa smiled wickedly as she looked at them. "Ah, yes, captain and his crew. The woman that I was speaking of is a descendant of a Teague and a Sparrow." She said and when she said those words to to them very clearly, Barbossa was flabbergasted and was blanched at this. Hector and the others knew that name very well. In which Teague was sailing course to Shipwreck Cove. The lady from the future is a descendant of 'the' Captain Teague. Jack, the monkey was making some screeching noises at this point. Elizabeth, Gibbs, Cotton's parrot, Ragetti, Marty, Pintel, Tia Dalma and Cotton himself looked at Shansa like 'What the hell is this witch on about?' Tia Dalman also knew that this woman from the future was coming as well. They thought to themselves in wondering when they were thinking that no 1 can come here from the future. Or can they? They would like to meet her sooner, or later.
Then, there was a soft knock on the door and everyone looked at it. Both Shansa and Tia gave them a toothy smile as she walked over and she opened the door. And there she was, Lara Teague that Shansa was expecting right in front of her and also in front of the other Pirates as well. Lara looked at the witch lady with confusion at first and then it dawned on her from the way that Shansa was smiling at her and that glint in her eyes. Something was up big time. It's like that Lara looked at her and she had just read her mind. "Um, am I expected here, or something, Ma'am?" Lara asked her with curiosity. Lara then looked over Shansa's shoulder when she saw the other Pirates, who were looking at her in shock and confused, like 'Who the hell is she?' "I just wanted to know if you guys were coming over here, or something." She said.
Shansa moved to the side and still gave her that wicked grin. "Yes, madame, you are as I expected to be. Do please come in." The witch lady said. Lara then walked in. Shansa walked passed her in a slow pace as Lara looked at the Pirates as to why they were here. She wonders to herself. "Please, come and sit down. We have much to speak about, madame Teague." Shansa said to her. Barbossa looked at her with amazement and curiosity. Gibbs, Elizabeth and the others looked at Lara with the same expression as Hector's. And then, the Pirates and Liam gathered around at the table to have a meeting conversation of what was going to happen.
Lara looked at Shansa across from hers with her eyebrows all the way up to her hair line with shock and surprise. 'How the fuck did she know my name? Hmm.' She thought. "Uh, wait a minute here, ma'am, how did you know my name exactly, who ever what your name is. Please?" she asked her in question. Hector and the other Pirates were beginning to like her already.
The witch lady chuckled softly at her. She knew that Lara was feisty at times. "Madame Teague, my name is Shansa. I am a witch that knows a lot of things that I see of who comes and who goes. I sense people, who are unpleasant and know what is about to happen soon." After she said this, the Pirates and Lara looked at her like, 'What is she on about.' They all thought. They talked about what the hell was going on. Shansa had told her, Barbossa and the other Pirates about the up coming war. Lara was confused and rather curious at the Witch's words. She also had told them that the red coat soldiers are coming to capture her soon as well. They then all got their weapons and pistols for the coming battle against Lord Beckett's Armada and Davy Jones. Time was of the essence. Lara got herself a couple of swords for herself, along with 2 small axes and some daggers with her. She may need them. 2 of the Pirates, Pintel and Ragetti walked to the table and they picked up the clothing and walked back to the group. Everyone in the room all looked at Lara. Madame Teague told them that she did some fencing sword fighting when she was a teenager. She still does practices every single day with her Dad. The Pirates shrugged their shoulders and they nodded at her at that. Before they all stood up from the table, Shansa looked at Barbossa. "Look after Lara Teague, Captain. She is the key to help all of us to fight a war and meeting with the Brethren Court. The song has been sung, Captain." She said to Hector, who was looking at Lara and he nodded in agreement, before she looked at the others and Lara. "And you have a ship is waiting for you at the docks. And go meet Will Turner in Singapore to retrieve the navigational charts to save a Sparrow from Davy Jones' Locker and set sail for Shipwreck Cove for the Brethren Court. Tread carefully and stay safe. All of you." Shansa added.
Hector, Lara and the other crew walked towards the door, opening it and they left to go outside to their temporary ship along the docks. Suddenly, the red coats came bursting through Tortuga. The Pirates never stopped walking to the ship as both Hector and Lara watched as when the soldiers from the East India Trading Company rushed over to the same building that they were just in there. Barbossa looked down at Lara, who was looking at the soldiers with shock, but she composed herself as she looked up at Hector. "How the hell did Shansa know that these guys are coming to get her, Captain?" Lara asked him. Just then, they looked back over to the soldiers when they brought Shansa out and they took her away. Half of the 10 soldiers caught Barbossa and Lara watching them. The red coats didn't want any witnesses, seeing of what they were doing. It's like that they were on a top secret mission that no 1 doesn't want anyone to see at all.
Jack, the monkey leaped off of Barbossa and he ran down to meet the others. Hector placed his arm around Lara's waist and he pull her along with him none too gently as Lara winced at hie roughness, rushing down the dirt road. "Come on, Madame Teague. We best be meetin' the crew are waiting for us on ship." He said to her. As Barbossa and Lara jogged down the road and just out of no where, there were some more soldiers stopped them in their tracks with their swords and pistols at the ready, aiming at them. Lara and Hector then saw his crew quietly came up right behind them and then all hell broke lose. The fight and the blood shed began. Barbossa and Lara brought out their swords at the ready at them and fighting against the red coats while they were running towards the ship. The crew had ran ahead of them to wait for them. Their swords were clashing and there was also gunfire, but the East India Trading Company had missed their shots at the Pirates. Lara never meant to kill them and she felt bad doing it, but she had to do it, because she was protecting the Pirates and Barbossa. Good thing that the monkey went with the others. These are her people in her ancestry and her heritage as well. She was really good at this kind of sword fighting against Beckett's men. In the 21st Century, you can't be hurting people. Even assault and battery. You'd be arrested for it and go to trial and go to prison. But back in the old days, you can do whatever you want to do and don't get caught doing it, during the 1700's when Pirates ruled the seas of the Caribbeans and all over the world.
After Lara just killed a British soldier, she turned her head and looked at what she was eyeing at that shocked her. There was Barbossa and another soldier grabbing at each other's throats by their hands when their swords were dropped to the ground. Lara took out her hatchet and getting ready to strike at any minute and she gave the British red coat an ugly look on her face and she's pissed off at this minute. No 1 hurts her people like that. "Hey, soldier ass hole!" Lara yelled at the British soldier, who looked at her with a nasty glare at her. Hector looked at her with a glare like 'I've never heard her say such language before.' But he knew that she was referring that nasty name to the British soldier in front of him. "Here, Mr. Soldier, you fucking catch this, buster." Lara added. Boy does she have a mouth. Just before she threw the ax at the red coat and she struck him into his right side where he bled out profusely. The British instantly let go of Hector's neck when the soldier collapsed to the ground dead. Hector took a deep breath a few times. Lara had to make sure that he was okay when she rushed over to him as she get her hatchet back in its place and she got closer to Barbossa, who looked at her with amazement. Where'd on Earth did she learn that talent? Hector thought quietly. He likes her even more as he stare at her. She gently grabbed him by the arm and he let her do so, so Lara could get him going to the ship where the others were waiting for them on the docks and they jogged as fast as they could more down the dirt road. A lot of blood was shed that day in Tortuga when Pirates fighting against Lord Cutler Beckett, men.

After Hector and Lara got onto the ship with Elizabeth, Gibbs, Tia Dalma, Marty, Pintel, Cotton, Ragetti and Cotton's parrot, Lara and Hector walked up to the helm wheel when Jack, the monkey leaped back up onto Barbossa's shoulder. Gibbs came up to them and he looked the Captain in the eyes. "Where we'd be heading, Cap'n?" Gibbs asked him and he looked over to Lara briefly while Hector was in thought of how to figure of how to get into Singapore without any detection from the British soldiers. "I would explain later to you all later." She mouthed to Gibbs, who he nodded at her in appreciation for saving their lives from the red coats. Lara nodded back at him. She would explain her true story later when setting sail to Singapore to get what they need.
"Aye, master Gibbs." Barbossa said. "We'd be setting a course to Singapore to meet Sao Feng and retrieve the navigational charts like Shansa says to us earlier. The song has been sung. We must convene the Brethren Court." Hector said. Lara sat down onto the wooden design, watching when the Captain took the helm wheel. Barbossa's monkey jumped off of him and Jack went over to Lara and the monkey climbed up onto her. He seemed to like her She noticed that the monkey's master was Hector himself. Barbossa turned around and he smiled at Lara. "Jack seems to like you, madame Teague." He said silkily to her when Lara looked at the monkey and she lifted her hand carefully in hoping that he won't bite her, Jack didn't do so. She petted Jack gently. The monkey felt relaxed under her touch. They were now sailing for Singapore to get what they need and rescue her ancestor, Jack from Davy Jones's Locker and meet with the 9 Pirate Lords of the Brethren Court.
