All reviewers get a copy of the script-the same copy used by their favorite actor/actress in the movie! WOO!
A/N: I forewarn you-I just went to a Halloween dance and there was a kid dressed like Jack Sparrow and he was doing impressions, and it really freaked me out because this kid was really creepy looking, so my inspiration has been a little...flat lately. So please, if this chapter sucks, you know why.
Chapter 23-The Chase and the Fight
"Sir! There's a ship coming up! There going pretty fast!" The first mate on the Darlene exclaimed.
"What?" He raised his spyglass and looked behind him. There was a ship coming toward him.
"It's the Pearl...they've come for Juniper."
"Is it really?"
"Didn't you hear me lad? Of course it is! Alert the crew!"
When the first mate left, the Captain went to have a tête-à-tête with Juniper. ~*~*~*~
"Good news, crew. We're gaining quickly. We should catch up to them soon and have Juniper back on our ship again."
The crew cheered.
"Back to work, you scabrous dogs!"
The crew moaned and whispered some things about Jack that shouldn't be said out loud.
Jack steered and tried to make the Pearl go as fast as possible. It was gaining quickly and he thought about how soon Juniper would be back on his ship.
Will was below deck tending to his wife. She had been a little sick and though she tried to convince her husband it was just morning sickness, he wouldn't believe it. To him, this whole pregnancy was going to kill him. He was a nervous wreck and Liz was just coming on 7 months-it would take a miracle for him to last the last two months. He wouldn't let Liz do a thing- if she wanted to go into town, he would say no; he would get anything she needed and/or wanted. If she wanted to drink wine every now and then, nope; the baby wouldn't be healthy. If she wanted to even play a simple game of cards, not a chance; the baby would think gambling is ok.
Liz, even though she loved him, wanted to kill her dear husband. He was like an overprotective parent. Although, unlike kids of today, she had no curfew. She couldn't even leave the ship if she wanted to. She was going insane staring at those same, wooden walls. She had no books to read, sights to see, new meals to try. It was the same thing every day for nine months. And only seven of those months had gone by.
Although it looked like Jack was concentrating on what he was doing, he was that good of a pirate to daze off and think about something else while doing the right thing at the same time. He could steer and think about a totally different topic. This topic was Juniper. He couldn't wait to see her again. He missed her dreadfully and could barely remember what she looked like. He remembered her finer details, but the mental image he had of her was still blurry. He remembered her dark hair and those dark, mesmerizing eyes that no one could forget. He forgot what her nose looked like and her ears, her lips too. But he did however, remembered how sweet her lips had been.
He heard a high pitched scream and remembered where he was. He saw how close he was to the Darlene and told his crew to lower the anchor when he saw the opposing crew was doing the same. ~*~*~*~
"What do you want?!" The captain screamed.
"I want back me lass!"
"She's not your lass, she's ours!"
"By means of paper, she signed onto our ship!"
"To the depths with paper! She belongs to me!"
"What makes ye say that?!"
I looked down at this moment and tears flooded my eyes. I remembered the day that this captain was talking about.
~*FLASHBACK*~
"Juniper, listen to me." My father said, looking deep into my eyes. I wanted none of this. I didn't want to listen. But he made sure I did.
"You have to leave. Listen to me. I am to be hanged tomorrow. Please...I'm going to the gallows, and you are to stay with this ship." He handed me a slip of paper.
"Listen to me; do not leave this ship unless you have a dire need to. If they hurt you, you won't put up with that. If you've found another ship that suits you better, leave. If you find love, I say definitely leave. This is just a ship that I found that is willing to take care of you."
I nodded as I was about to cry. I held them in though; pirates don't cry.
"I'm going to miss you daddy..." I said trailing off. I was only nine and my dad was being taken from me.
"I'm going to miss you too. My beautiful, little piratess."
With that, he was taken away.
~*~*~*~
I decided to speak up.
"You weren't there when my father told me what to do!" I screamed. Everyone looked at me baffled.
"My father told me if I found a ship I loved and found a man I loved that I could leave! And that's what I did! I listened to him!"
Jack looked at me speechless. In fact, everyone did. I brought my hand to my eyes and realized I was pretty much sobbing.
"Lass...your father...is dead. Therefore, his word no longer matters to the likes of us. You're staying with us!" The captain screamed.
I gasped. How dare he say that! I drew my dagger and went at him.
I tried to get him with the blade, but he was too quick. Jack tried to pull me away, but I wouldn't let him. I kept going at him, and finally, stabbed through his left hand. I turned the blade to the side and pulled out my dagger.
He looked down startled and yelped in great pain.
"You...little...bitch!"
He went after me with a sword and I pulled my own from my holster. We fought for a while until Jack came in and fought for me.
"HOW DARE YOU HURT THE CAPTAIN?!" One crew member yelled at me. We then started fighting too, me advancing quickly.
Jack fought viciously at the captain. He wanted to make sure this man was dead and down at Davy Jones Locker. The captain was no different. He wanted to kill the man who stole his crew member. He advanced quickly on Jack, but Jack darted out of the way.
I tried to stab the man I was fighting, but couldn't. He was too quick. There was something about this man I found familiar. Something I couldn't quite pin point. I ignored it best I could and went after him again.
I heard someone stumble and turned to look. I had made a mistake. The man then stabbed right under my shoulder, causing me to collapse. I looked up at him and gasped. It couldn't be. But then I fell to the deck floor from weakness and everything went black.
PED-Sarah- Wow! Thank you so much!! You rock!
Angie-Thank you so much! Yeah, Will is really worried and so is Jack.
