Chapter 2
Cassie turned around slowly, and came face to face with one of the ugliest
men she had seen so far. His teeth looked black and his visible eye (the
other was hidden by a dirty black fringe) was bloodshot and bulging. She
tried to breath but almost choked on the pungent smell of alcohol. She
looked down, and realized the pistol click, had been him putting his away,
right now, the man was leering at her almost hungrily.
"So what about it love.?" he slurred making and obscene gesture with his
pelvis
"I wouldn't go near you with a twelve foot barge pole" she replied icily
"Oh c'mon" he said putting his arm (or trying) on her shoulder. At this,
she did what most women in her situation had the sense to do. she slapped
his face and walked past him, towards the tavern she had come from.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By now, all worry had been replaced by excitement, she had just slapped a
man in the face and walked cockily away. This gave her an adrenaline rush,
and an empty stomach. When Cassie walked into the tavern, she decided to
order a meal and a drink of the brandy, though one of the only meals that
didn't want to make her want to throw up was a stew. When she got it, she
shovelled it in hungrily and drank the drink with thirst, and before she
knew it (or realised it) she was singing the song from the pirate boat ride
in Disney land to herself.
"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho."

Across the room, with the rest of the crew Captain Jack Sparrow sat in
almost a drunk stupor, like the rest of the crew. He looked around groggily
and saw a girl there, no more than nineteen, he thought to himself
distractedly.ahhh she was singing his song, that caught his attention so,
with great difficulty, he stumbled over and without paying much attention
to the fact that she was sitting alone for her own reasons, he sat down
She didn't seem to have noticed, girls couldn't hold their ale very well
jack thought fleetingly as he saw only three empty cups in front of her
"Nice pistol" he said gesturing haphazardly at the holster on her waist
She looked at him; her grey eyes had gone quite oozy with the drink
"Father" she hiccupped, "said it was a custom made one and" she hiccupped
again "plenty of people had 'em" she went back to singing to herself "oh
god." she said, and for the second time that day, she vomited her last meal
onto the already dirty floor. Jack raised an eyebrow and grinned, he could
probably get a bit of money off this one
"'Ere love, why don't you give me your money and I will get ya your drink"
he said, putting on his best charitable grin. Again, she looked at him, but
after vomiting, her eyes seemed to be a bit clearer
"You're a pirate," she said finally "why would I trust my money to you?"
"Almost" he said shrugging "Jack Sparrow" he said, holding out his callused
and weather beaten hand
"Jack Daw would seem to be more appropriate" she muttered and held out her
own hand "Cassandra Fenwick"
Jack looked at Cassie closely, she had dark grey eyes, which, he assumed
normally had a more intelligent look, dark brown hair tied back with a
bandanna on, and a pale heart shaped face. He could not help but notice,
that she looked out of place here amongst the whores.
"You're not from around here," he said finally, and inspecting his nails
"Nope" she replied, even though she was not as drunk as before she really
did not know much of what she was saying
"I'm not even from this time"
Jack frowned, this women was drunker than he had first thought
"I think I may have come back in time!" she continued, giggling inanely,
then suddenly stopping "I really wish I had some coffee, dad would flip his
lid if he saw me now, water will have to do though." she said muttering to
herself, she hen turned to jack who was looking at her confused. "Do you
know were I can get some water?" she asked
"I think you've 'ad to much to drink love," he said finally, giving her a
look that clearly said, he thought she was strange
"I know that!" she said impatiently
"Well there's a tap outside" he said watching her with a raised eyebrow as
she left.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It did not take long to find the tap Jack had been talking about, Her
mother had told her years ago that if you got drunk, the best thing to do
if you had no coffee would be to drink some water so not to get to
dehydrated and to neutralize the alcohol. ((A/N: I have no idea if this is
true, I heard it somewhere though.)). When she had done this, Cassie
suddenly realized what she had said, to a real life pirate, a cute one as
well. She felt so embarrassed
"I'm not going back in there" she muttered to herself and decided to wander
around again "I think I may hire a ship to take me to port royal though
tomorrow"
when she had first come to the Caribbean, her father promised Cassie that
they would go there, but when they had, it was a huge tourist town.
"I wonder what its like now?" she said to herself "I'll bet there are no
tourist attractions there at the moment" she smirked and decided to look
for another tavern to spend the night in
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: that was chapter 2, so what do ya think? I know I only posted my first
chapter yesterday, but I had so many ideas bursting to get out for this
chapter. I know this one is a little shorter than the other one, but, I
will (promise!!!) make the next one a bit more exiting to make up for this
one, which is basically here to show how Cassie and Jack Sparrow first meet
Toodle pipski for now!!
