CHAPTER ONE: It was time to retire the original Black Pearl. And needless to say, Jack was NOT happy. So once again, Captain Jack Sparrow was in the market for a boat.
*** The Pearl had been a very handy ship, in times of war, and in times of great need of sunning yourself on the deck. It had been used for enemy purposes and for the use of the real captain, Jack.

Sailing into Tortuga wasn't easy when every five seconds, the boat more and more resemble a swimming pool. Which, don't get me wrong, was a great idea, if the swimming pool was also serving as a vessel carrying the greatest pirate to ever roam the Caribbean. When Jack finally reached the port, it was time to say goodbye to his beloved Black Pearl.
"Wait," he said to himself, "pirates don't cry." But no matter how hard he tried to hold it in, his emotions got the best of him. He bawled like a baby for over an hour until Will Turner, his faithful companion, came upon the sulking sailor.
"Jack? Is that you? I thought I saw the Pearl dock here, so I rushed down to see if my eyes had deceived me. Well, what a nice surprise!" Jack suddenly forgot about the boat. He felt better when Will was there. Suddenly, Will felt a tap on his shoulder and whipped his head around, alarmed.
"Well, is that any way to treat your fiancé, sweetheart?" Elizabeth strode up behind them and looked astonished. "Jack! I knew I'd find you here! The moment I saw the black sails, I knew you'd come back." Elizabeth looked slightly confused. "Why did you come back?" Jack stood there with what felt like every ear in Tortuga listening to him speak.
"Well the truth is," Jack paused for a moment, "Im retiring the Pearl." It turns out every ear in Tortuga was listening in. Gasps were heard all around the port, and suddenly everything went quiet.
"Jack! Are you serious?" Elizabeth asked. "I thought the Pearl was your life!"
"Well love, the Pearl was like my own personal swimming pool when I sailed in this morning. There was water up to me beard! It's time to get a new boat."
