Disclaimer: I own nothing that doesn't belong to me, if you know what I
mean.
I know that it is short so far but it will get a lot longer later.
Did you ever wonder what might have happened if Will and Jack had escaped and Elizabeth had not fallen in love with Will? Well I have and here go my thoughts.In story form as that is the only way I think.
________ On The Black Pearl____________
"I'm sorry. "Said Jack halfheartedly as he rubbed the wheel fondly with one heavily jeweled hand.
Will did not answer. Instead he slid to the floor of the ship and rested his head in his hands. Just then a woman came along with orange hair tied into a neat bun and emerald green eyes. This was no ordinary pirate, that was for sure.
"Are you ill?" She asked Will in a kind, young voice.
Will shook his head.
"His Bonny Lass is not interested." Said Jack without looking up from the wheel.
The girl slid down so that she was eye-level with William.
"Oh, then you are as good as ill." She whispered. "But some times the best things in life disguise themselves as the worst just to see if you are capable of finding the good."
"This is no disguise." Replied Will dully. "You did not know her."
"True." Said the girl. "But I have heard tell of the peril you braved in her name and if she cannot she how lucky she is than she is nothing much to loose."
Will nodded once.
"That's a boy. Now get off of the floor and join me. My name is Tameese Kellet. I am a blacksmith and have been asked to work aboard this ship. I could use a little help. It will take your mind off of the girl."
"Miss Swan."
"Of Miss Swan."

"I was a pirate once, you know." Said Tameese hammering a blade flat.
"And I was once a blacksmith." Will replied in a sorrowful voice.
"Yes. I visited Brown's once. Saw you in the back. If I am not mistaken, you made my sword." She pulled from her sheath a beautiful silver sword fitted with pearls with a crystal at the end. "Your work showed me that there was more out there than robbing and destroying. It showed me that there was something more that I could do."
"But why not be a pirate. There are many too few women pirates."
"And for that men seemed to think all I could possibly be on ship for was 'Pleasurable company.' But no, I was strong enough to take care of myself." She paused for a moment. "Seeing your work made me realize how afraid I was."
Will waited for her to continue but she did not. So he decided to ask what he was wondering.
"Afraid of what?"
Unfortunately ,at that second, Tameese's hammer slid from her sweaty hand and slammed into the wall behind her. Will retrieved it for her and waited for her reply.
"Thank you." She said getting back to work.
"Miss Kellet?"
"Hu?"
"You never answered what you were afraid of. I only ask because I wonder if I made the right choice."
"I don't know what I was afraid of. Could you pass me the edge hammer please."
(A.N. It will get better. PLEEEEEEEEEEASE review. PLEASE! It will also get longer but this was kind of a spur of the moment thing because I LOVE Pirates of the Caribbean.)
