Chapter 2:
Jack and Salina continued to walk through the dead town towards the ship, until Jack swerved over to Salina; grasping both her arms. Sparrow got real close to her face and started to talk to her. "Now listen, love. My crew is going to look at me very strange if I bring ye aboard dressed like that." "Well what do you want me to do? I don't carry extra close in my dress you know?" "Obviously." He said while looking down at her chest. Salina gasped and then in one swift moment slapped him across his face.
"Ow! Maybe I deserved that." He was facing her again. "There's a clothing shop right here. Come with me and I'll make you look like a pirate. That hair will need fixin' too." Salina looked shocked while being dragged into the shop. Twenty minutes later her and Jack walked out of the shop. Instead of a white under gown, Salina was now wearing a cream colored shirt with black knickers and burgundy boots that came up to her knees. As she turned around in front of the shop window she realized how much more comfortable she felt in pants versus a dress.
"Hold on a second Jack." Salina dashed back into the shop. "Women, they always want to shop." Jack took his hat off and scratched his head. Salina now stood by the door of the shop, a bandana around her head and a scarf around her side. "Well?" She looked at Jack for an answer, but he just stood there in awe. "Well?" She said it again in a stricter tone. "It looks good." Jack fumbled a little with his words. "But?" Salina walked closer staring at him the whole time. "Well. It's good if you're the maiden of flags." Jack chuckled a little and Salina frowned, but soon found humor in it too. Salina dropped the bandana. "Now lets go." Once again, they began to walk towards the Black Pearl.
But, Jack stopped walking once they had gotten to the peer. "Hey! You have the cloths, but the cloths are new." "Okay?" Salina looked at Jack who was pointing to the dirt and the water. "Oh No!" Jack nodded. "Jack no!" Jack grabbed her arm and pulled her into the water. Salina let out a little scream as she fell in. There was a big splash and then a noise of laughter coming from Jack. Salina was standing in the waist deep water sulking and almost crying from the fright. "Now you're dirty." "Now I'm wet." She said while wringing out her clothing. "It's good enough." They hopped out of the water onto the peer. Salina shook out her hair to where it was separated and the blond was noticeable again.
When they were on the gangplank Jack nudged her in her side. "Just keep quite and let me do all the talking." Salina nodded, as Jack began to walk in front of her. The way he walked was somewhat funny to her. He swayed sort of and used his hands to explain things; it was rather amusing to Salina. "My fellow pirates!" Jack yelled as he strolled to the center of the ship. Salina slowly walked up onto the deck, trying not to attract any attention to herself. But, it didn't take long for the pirates to notice her.
"Captain? There be a women aboard!" Barbosa yelled from behind Jack. All the men turned and looked at Salina, while Salina just stood there staring straight at Jack. It seems with a sudden burst of energy all the men dashed towards her. "No! No don't hurt her!" Jack yelled while being pushed and shoved out of the way. Salina quickly dogged through the crowd of men and found a way to stand behind Jack. "Hey! Oh Boys over here!" Salina stood beside Jack waving her scarf in the air. Jack stood with his arms crossed and his hat tilted down a little, Salina was now resting her head on his shoulder.
Jack looked down at her. "This should be fun." She nodded and stood up again. "Well boys. Are you going to come and get me or not?" A sequel came from Salina as she realized that Barbosa grabbed her butt. She turned and faced him. Salina took her scarf and wrapped it around his neck. "Shame shame." Then she dashed off up the stairs to the higher deck. It seemed that the men followed her; she started to climb up the cargo ropes to the mast. Salina noticed Jack sitting on the edge of the boat; hat off staring at the port. "Com'on boys! You want me or not?" She yelled from the mast.
Salina grabbed another rope and swung down the mast, circling around it like a pole. There was a thud when she hit the deck floor. Salina looked up and saw practically the whole crew chasing her. Salina casually walked over to Jack. "They'll be up there all night trying to get down like I did. But they can't because they're not light enough. They'll end up breaking their necks." Jack looked up at her; her arm was now resting on his shoulder. "Where'd you learn how to do that?" "Just because I lived in a mansion doesn't mean I was ship deprived." He stood up, hat on and held out his arm. Salina raised an eyebrow and then locked her arm on to his. Jack and Salina walked towards the cabin, but not before Jack yelled up to the crew. "When you scallywags figure out how to get down." He chuckled. "Then get the ship ready to take off."
Once in the cabin, Salina sat in a leather chair playing with her hair. "I must admit." Salina looked up at Jack. "That little stunt you did back there was quite amusing." Salina smiled and walked over and sat on the desk in front of Jack. "It was fun. I've never felt free like this. It feels so good." She smiled and looked out the windows of the ship. "I'm really sorry about your father." Salina now faced the floor. "It's okay. I didn't like him very much because I didn't really know him. He was never there; my uncle was there more than him." Salina sighed and then looked up to Jack. "He must have done something horrible to you for you to kill him like that." Jack sat brushing his hat off. "Not to long ago when my men and I docked our ship out a little ways and took row boats to shore, we were getting supplies. He and the navy boarded our ship and tore it apart. If we hadn't gotten back when we did our ship would've been chunks of wood floating in the water."
Salina turned and was now facing Jack, who was up by the window. "I'm sorry Jack. My father caused you lots of trouble." "Then when we did come back he threw my men in jail and I was supposed to be dangling from a rope by dawn. But that all changed." Jack turned and sat back down in his chair. "I remember that day." Her words sounded broken and fragile. "My father told me he caught the most ruthless man out there. But that this man did not deserve that title because he was just a drunk and made his decisions based on that. I was shocked, he told me that this was the last real pirate ship." Jack looked confusingly at her. "It was you. You-you were the one who let my men out and frayed the rope so it would brake." "Yes, that was I." "Why did you do it?" "Because if the last pirate was killed there would be no hope for me." Now Jack, even more confused, leaned in closer to her. "You see I could not stand my life. It was too big for me." "But your father." "I shed my tears for him. But now I am here. Where I belong."
Jack got up and put his hand to her cheek. "You may sleep on the couch if you want." He helped her off of the desk. "Thank you. Goodnight." "Goodnight." Jack grabbed a blanket and tossed it to her. Then walked over and flopped in his chair; tilted his hat and fell asleep.
