Disclaimer: Again, I don't own The good cap'n, the pearl, or anything else,
except this really crap storyline, and Half own Shail. I only borrowed the
rest of 'em
A/N: This story might take a while, as it's based on an RP me and someone are doing right now, so please, bear with me. Oh, and by the way, thank you to Jade Aura, the ONLY person who reviewed. Bunch of lazy bastards.
Jack made his way down to the docks where the pearl was harboured and stood waiting for her. he smiled inwardly to himself, thinking. jack felt unusual trust towards her, though he usually trusted no one (except perhaps young will; but then, he was a special case.)
After a short while, the woman reappeared, one hand resting casually at the hilt of one sword. "Ah... so this is the Black Pearl..."
Jack smiled and sauntered over in his usual fashion. "This is the infamous pearl! Impressed?"
He hollered up at Gibbs to lower the gangplank, and led her onto the ship.
"Fascinating..." She said with a bright grin, resting one hand on the railing. "Really, Jack. this is a fantastic ship. One of the best I've seen."
"Thanks," jack found himself almost reaching for her hand to lead her around, but restrained himself. "D'ye want me to get the crew down?"
She turned her icy blue gaze on him, and then smiled. Something about him was more than amusing... though she couldn't put her finger on it. "If you wish so."
"OI! GIBBS!" he yelled. "Get those scurvy dogs down here! The lady wants to have a look at the crew!" He turned to her and gave her a gold-capped toothy smile. "Here they come, m'am"
She smirked and shook her head. "Now Jack, ye'll embarrass me with such respect. Call me Shail, savvy?" She grinned at him.
Jack took his hat off to her. "If you wish... Shail..."
She chuckled, one hand still resting comfortable on her sword's hilt. Out of habit. "Well well. nice crew." She commented, her sharp eyes taking in his men as she walked past them.
Jack put one hand on her shoulder. "Come on, I'll show ye the rest of the ship." He gave her a smile, before turning to the crew. "BACK TO WORK, YE SCABBARDOUS DOGS!"
She nodded, not bothering to break his hand, as she usually would have done.
He took her down to the brig, the cannon rooms etc. before returning back top. "So what did you think?"
She grinned at him. "Honestly? It's an incredible ship. Better than I'd imagined."
"say Shail, I wouldn't mind looking at your ship, the Nova," jack said, turning to her. "Would you mind showing me?"
She smiled pleasantly. "Certainly, Jack. Follow me." She took his arm and led him off the ship, crossing to another part of the dock where a rather large-but discrete-ship was docked.
Jacks eyes widened. "Well, this is certainly a grand one isn't it? he said, taking in the details. "How old is she?"
"Decades... made by me predecessor's great-great-granddad." She grinned. "And now it's mine."
"By god, she's in a fine condition!" jack said, running his hands over the details of the carved wood.
She laughed and nodded. "Would ye like to come aboard, mate? The crew's probably all out picking up whores, but I can show her to ye."
Jack laughed. "Yes, that would be good. Me crews usually the same, but its their night overtime."
She smiled and did something surprising. She jumped off the dock and caught a hold of one of the ropes hanging from the sides, hauling her self up and tossing the gangplank down for him. "Come aboard!"
Jacks mouth gaped open. He knew that if he'd done something in that condition it was likely he would have fallen into the water. He sauntered onboard and looked around. It was certainly a fine ship, and there was something about it that reminded him of the interceptor before he got it trashed.
She smiled proudly and rested one hand fondly on the railing of her ship. "She's beautiful, isn't she?"
"Very much so," jack said. He ran one hand along the railing, feeling the fine carpentry. His hand connected with hers for a second, then looked at her, before quickly withdrawing it. "Very beautiful. Who did the carpentry?" he asked quickly
She almost commented on the contact, but refrained. "As I said, it was made decades ago. But I've 'ad to work on the carpentry m'self a bit over the years."
"You maintain this yerself? You must be skilled in the subject."
She shrugged. "Some m'self, some by th'crew. But I work on it quite a bit... ye know, pillaging can be a messy business." She said with a laugh.
Jack grinned. "So, how far off do ye sail?" he asked. Ever been to India?" She nodded casually. "Aye...we've taken this crate halfway around th'world, I swear." She laughed and shook her head. "Been to the oriental areas... and places where th'only thing to steal from would be savages."
"Ah, the Far East! Great places, good plunder, savvy? Dangerous though, unless yer ship is well protected."
She nodded in agreement. "Aye, very expensive o'er here... everyone wants it but no one's willing to get it." She grinned. "'Cept brave folk such as ourselves, eh?"
Jack laughed again. "Aye, I'll drink to that," he said. "Speaking of drinks, we best be heading back to the town, else we'll miss the last of the beer and rum!"
She grinned and nodded. "Ye can go ahead and walk off. I've got to fix the gangplank." She made a face. "I remember the last time it was left untended.had several bastards thought they could take me ship!"
"Ok then. Ye want a hand with that? That happened several times on the pearl," he said, frowning.
She smiled and shook her head. "I've got it under control." She assured him.
"Ok, if yer sure," he said with a smile that showed the hint of his gold plated teeth. He stepped off the ship and waited on the dock. She stepped off the ship, and jack offered an arm out to her. "Well? Shall we?"
A/N: Whew, finally. That was one tough part to get down. Well, PLEASE read and review, and stop being horrible, this is my first Fanfic, ya know.
