More reviews!
DaydreamBeliever14-Thank you so much and thanks for the support!
PED-Sarah-Thanks!!
Captainsparrowsfeistylass-GEEZE, I have got to stop making you people cry! Lol, you're like the 17th person who has almost cried during this story, my goodness lol. But thanks for the awesome review!
SweetPea0431-LOL! When I read the line you were just kidding about, I started laughing, but hey! It's not a bad idea...I might have to put some consideration into it. And thanks for the awesome review!
AbbieNormal182-And of course, you can have a pirate medallion. Because once again, you gave me an awesome review!!
*All my reviewers get...*drumroll*...Mr. Cotton's Parrot! Oh, come on, he was so cute! He's my second favorite character lol*
Disclaimer: I don't own POTC, Jack Sparrow, or the name Weatherby, honestly, I stayed after the movie ended to see the clip when the movie was absolutely over, and I was reading the credits and it said Weatherby Swann, and that was it. I just started laughing like a lunatic in the movie theater and I was all alone, to make it even better.
A/N: *gasp* I just got this idea just now and guess what?! It's gonna cause some more conflicts! Hey, I need more story lines for the 7-8 months until Liz delivers, but this one sounded really good, so HERE I AM!
A/N2: My chapters are gonna be updated a little less frequently now because I have a Bat Mitzvah to get ready for on Saturday, not to mention I have a little visitor right now. You know, that certain aunt that makes you emotionally unstable and gives you really bad stomach aches? I believe I don't have to go further with this...BUT! To make me feel better with that *beeping* aunt visiting, I bought Benny and Joon today! Yay!
~*~*~*~A Month Later! Again!~*~*~*~
We sailed from the dreaded Tortuga and planned to stay away from that place for awhile, away from all the drunks and bars and definitely away from all the strumpets Jack had had...relations with.
Liz was three and a half months pregnant and her and Will were thinking up names. So far, they had William (Of course) and Weatherby after Liz's father (Which I thought was an absolutely repugnant name, but she liked it all the same).
A week before, Jack had informed us that a new crew member was to join us once we reached port at Port McCall, a 'beachy' type of island with calm waters and light breezes. It was slightly warm during the day and cool and chilly during the night. He had no idea of who this new crew member was, just that he was pretty positive that they had possessed the skills any pirate should have.
While we made our way toward the port, I sat down on a crate and sharpened my dagger with a small piece of rugged sand paper that Will had given me. You know, just in case this was some sort of plot to hurt the crew. You could never be too careful.
I didn't really listen as Jack yelled, "Anchor down!" but I was still aware that we had arrived at our destination. I was too busy thinking about who this mystery crew member could be, what he looked like, and how he thought he could ever get a chance on the Pearl.
Although, once looking down on the boat to someone standing on Port McCall, I realized that our new crew member wasn't a he, but was a she. Not to mention a pretty one at that. With pitch black hair reaching her waist and green eyes, a pale face (Rare, if you think about it. What kind of pirate isn't tan?), and her clothes were neat, clean and not torn at all. Maybe this wasn't her. Or maybe it was and she was just going incognito.
She walked up to Jack and slyly circled him, keeping her eyes on him at all times.
"Hello there," She said softly, "You must be Jack."
Jack didn't look pleased. "That's Captain Jack to someone of the likes of ye, young missy."
The woman frowned, but a bright smile came back just as quickly as it left.
"No need to be hostile, Captain." I noticed how she put an emphasis on the word Captain, as if she didn't mean to say it at all.
She walked closer to him and started rubbing his shoulder. "I would like to become a member of the Black Pearl."
Jack threw his head back and laughed. "What makes ye think ye have what it takes to be a pirate?"
"I used to be known as Captain Catherine Cicero of the Silver Manatee."
My eyes widened and I ran up to her, cornering her against one of the palm trees on the island.
"You liar!!" The woman looked at me confused.
"What are you talking about?!"
"My father was the captain of the Silver Manatee, not you!"
The devious woman smirked. "Ah, yes, I remember you. You're Juniper Skylark. Never heard what happened to your good ol' pops or how Jack was kicked off the ship, did you?"
She left Jack to start circling me. I looked up at Jack. "Yes, I tried to hide that little last bit, but it was true. There was a mutiny and your father was thrown overboard. Well, most pirates didn't know how to swim, but your father did. But we were too smart for that. So before we threw him over, we tied a large metal weight to his foot and he drowned." She stopped to smile. "And Jack over there, well he always told us he couldn't swim. So we just threw him overboard and he swam away, the sly little son of a bitch."
Jack tried to fight to get to her, but I held him back.
"Don't you DARE impugn Jack's honor!" I screamed at her.
"Whatever happened to your captain role?" Jack asked.
"Mutiny."
I laughed. "I don't blame them."
She quickly took out a dagger and pressed the cold metal against my flesh.
"Want to be saying that again?"
"I...don't...blame...them..." As I finished, I kicked her in the stomach, grabbing the dagger that she dropped.
"Now listen here, you aren't to have a place on the Pearl, do I make myself clear?"
She was gasping for the air to return to her lungs. "Crystal."
We came back to the Pearl and boarded. I turned back to see where the wench was, but saw no one.
It wasn't until later we all found out that she was nothing but a sly, devious, evil stowaway.
A/N: OOH, cliffhanger, sorta...Now this chapter wasn't supposed to end this way, but I thought it would be better this way and yes, I'm finally updating again! Yay!
