After a few minutes her stomach began to settle and she sat down leaning against the railing, Jack followed her with his eyes.
"Yer not hung over are ya luv?" giving a curious glance, Jack and Ana were the only two that knew what happened to her when she was drunk that one time. She smiled and shook her head. Jack lifted a brow, she hadn't been sea sick since she came on board the Pearl. "A'right get up then we have a ship to sail." He said while walking over to the wheel. The sun had peaked over the horizon and the crew began to assemble on deck to begin their daily duties.
Several hours had passed and the crew was now scattered about the ship trying to find ways to entertain themselves. Jack was, as usual at the wheel staring out over the ocean. Anamaria slowly made her way up to the quarterdeck towards Jack and leaned against the railing.
"Did you talk with Raven this morning?" Ana inquired.
"Yes.... Well no, more I talked and she made movements with her head." Jack mused.
"I heard her get up this morning, do you know why?" She ignored Jacks comment as she looked out over the sea.
"Aye she was as sea sick as a drunken fool, odd though." He paused as he gazed over to Anamaria, she turned around and gazed at her Captain disappointed with his answer. "the lass has a strong stomach, never been sea sick before."
"I realize that cap'n," she gave a nod of thanks and headed to the front of the ship.
Raven came up from below deck in search of Anamaria, more then pleased to find her standing alone watching the waves bounce off the hull. She approached her and leaned against the rail a few feet away to allow her presence to be known. It wasn't uncommon for a pirate to stab a fellow crew member, if surprised. Hasn't happened on the Pearl yet but why take a chance. Anamaria looked at the girl and nodded a hello then looked out at the sea again. Looking around to see where the rest of the crew rest she slid a bit closer.
"Ana, how did me mother become pregnant?" Her head wiped in Ravens direction at the question, her surprise quickly covered by a calm demeanor.
"I don't know," she relied simply, turning to watch the waves.
"Liar," Raven's voice raising barely above a whisper. "Two years ago ye said ye knew, ye can't just magically forget ya know."
"Ye remembered, didn't think ye would. I be mistaken then I thought ye got your brain from yer Pa'" Anamaria smiled, and turned to Raven only to be greeted by a cold glare. She sighed Raven never took well to her parents being insulted unless she was the one throwing the insults.
"Don't ye go glarin at me li'l S it took ye two years to be askin me 'bout this. Ye obviously fo--"
"Yeah, yeah can ye just be getting on with the story?" Raven smiled, she knew Anamaria was kidding, and Anamaria would never apologize, she's to stubborn. Both women gave a short laugh as Ana began to speak.
Yer mum was passin' Tortuga on her way to Fort Morgan, Port Royal when her ship was attacked and destroyed, she floated on a large piece of debris over to Tortuga which took the lass a couple hours. Once makin' it to land, wet 'n sore she made her way into the part of town ye grew up in, lookin' for some merchants to take her aboard to her destination. I was walkin' down the street 'n she came up to me, I was maybe 10, 11 years old. I told her where to go but to wait till morning. Find a place to sleep in a tavern I says to her. Then continued on me way. A few weeks later I ran into her again, surprised to see her I went up and talked to her. She told me while she was waiting for a room a man started talkin' to her 'n buyin' her drinks till she be a drunken wreck. He lead her up to her room then woke up to find she was sore between her legs 'n 3 shillings on the table. Sound familiar?"
"Yeah, only she got paid." Raven said in a fake bitter tone, in reality, she was shocked, her mother had gone through the same thing.
"A bit later she went to a midwife after not receivin' her cycle. They told her, she was pregnant with ye. Her father was to be Governor John Sutherland of Fort Morgan as his brother-in-law was placed in Fort Charles."
"Sutherland? Me mothers name is Wood." She stated firmly.
"She changed it li'l S if she had told the people in Tortuga she was Emily Sutherland, they would of, one, laughed in her face or two tried to kill or ransom her. She was a smart women for bein' raised as a lady. She lived her way through the pregnancy with me help, then whored her self once ye where born so she could raise ya. Strong women ye mum is, independent 'n stubborn as hell, she must have been to get through it all with out help from her rich family ties. Her family don't even know she's alive. She don't want them to know she's a whore, or that she got knocked up by a pirate."
"An here I thought she got knocked up while on the job." Raven replied sarcastically trying hiding her surprise. Receiving a glare from Anamaria.
"Yer mum was 'n is a very respectable person---" Anamaria started,
"Yer lyin'" Raven accused glaring back at Ana.
"Ye, can read 'n write can't ya? Where did ye think yer mum learned that, in Tortuga? 'n why, in bloody hell would I lye 'bout it, to ye."
"because y---"
"Ladies, ladies," cut the calm voice of their captain, Raven took one look at him and stormed off. "She's more temperamental then normal."
"I know," she paused for a moment. "About how long 'till we dock again ye think?" Jack looked at her quizzically.
"We just left Tortuga not even a week ago."
"Just answer me question."
"We can stop in Port Maria for the night if need be."
"I would appreciate that, thanks." Anamaria smiled slightly as she walked down below deck. Giving him no room for argument.
Jack mumbled about not being in control of his own ship, as he watched the women walk down below deck.
The town was dirty, not at bad as Tortuga mind you, just before dusk and the streets were dead silent as the Pearl pulled into the dock and anchored. Raven hadn't been seen much since that morning and yet was the first one to leave the ship and venture into the village. Her destination predetermined. Stopping in front of a small shack she took a suspicious glance around to see if anyone was watching, pleased with what she saw, she looked up once more at the sign that read MIDWIFE and entered.
A/N: a little tid bit I have one of the original scripts for this movie and the ending is completely different! Well not completely different Jack still get the pearl and his crew and Elizabeth and Will still get together but there's a trial for Will's life and Jack isn't rescued from the gallows he doesn't even go to the gallows!!, whoa it's weird. It's so different from the final movie! Instead of turtles Jack says his rotting body is still on the island and that he's a ghost it's weird!!! I just updated I a little bit I'm trying to finish the story before I upload another chapter because I know I don't have a lot of time e-mail me or review if you're really against this.
