As the sun began to rise above the far off horizon, Jack found himself
awake to a fully hung-over crew (himself hung over) and a very testy
captain lumbering over him as his eyes fluttered open. His nose was
possibly two inches away from the peeved female captain of the Mimosa, the
ends of her hair tickling the sides of his stubbly face.
"Yes?" he questioned groggily, his head swerving from side to side, amazed that he got that word out.
"Jack, d' ye remember anythin' of last night?" she wondered, her head pounding silently inside, aware of her clenched up eyes.
He tilted his head back, letting fall down onto the pillow, wincing as the nap of his head hit the firm mattress. He folded his hands over his abdomen and looked at the ceiling. Caley grew angry. Her face transforming to a light shade of magenta as she leaned over the bed more closely to Jack's ear.
"D' ye Jack?!" She yelled into his ear sending his eyes jolting shut in pain. He looked at her and looked her over once before leaning back onto the bed.
"No." he lied, his eyes never leaving the ceiling after that.
She sighed heavily and hoisted herself back up from the side of the bed turning her back to him. "Good," She whispered to herself as she made her way out of the room and into the small hall where she ran into an extremely exhausted Kat.
"Kat, ye look 'orrible. Wha' 'ave ye been doin'?" Caley lifted her upper lip at her, her eyes over looking her. Kat's hair clung to the sides of her face, her eye lids drooped down halfway covering her eyes and her clothes were wrinkled and askew.
Kat ran a hand through her hair nervously, her face pasting a small smile onto her lips. "Just a late night I suppose with all you scallywags drinking like dogs. I didn't slip til near mourn."
Caley nodded her head lightly before heading up to the top deck. No sooner had Caley disappeared had Will appeared out of his dwelling. Kat turned around and spotted him, giving a full-hearted smile before diving into her own room as he went up on deck as well.
"Wha' the . . ." Caley whispered under her breath as a ship appeared starboard side, dark almost a black color brown wood, black torn sails flying in the wind.
"That's the Pearl," Will answered to Caley. His eyes growing large as the ship neared, no sign of Elizabeth on deck just the deformed and mismatched crew. A shiver ran up and down his spine as memories of the last time he had seen the Pearl flooded back to him. "What do we do?"
"Let 'em come, we can 'andle 'em." Caley smiled cockily as she gazed around at the female crew at hand on deck.
The ship neared and finally pulled a few feet of the Mimosa, starboard side. Cat calls and wolf whistles were heard loudly and boisterously from the crew of the Black Pearl. The new captain stood near the wheel, a rope in hand along with some of the crew. He smiled slightly to the side at the sight of female pirates, the thought, in his mind, was preposterous.
"Wha' can we do ya for cap'n?" Caley hollered from her place on her ship. Her hands placed firmly on her hips, her head held high in the air. If Will hadn't known better, she was showing the new captain up with her cockiness.
"Maybe ye can help us missy. We be looking for a captain, Jack be the name. Heard of him have ye?" The dark captain yelled back, an eyebrow rose at awaiting her reply.
Will looked between the two after surveying the ship for any sign of Elizabeth, no such luck. He opened his mouth to holler something back before feeling a slight jolt from his stomach as Caley's hand met his body. "Hush boy." She whispered from the corner of her mouth to him.
"And wha' if we 'ave? Wha' ye want with 'im?" She crossed her arms across her chest and bent her left leg at the knee sending most of her weight to her right leg. She titled her head to the side as she questioned him.
"I don't have time for question miss. He's the captain of this 'ere ship. I'm sending two of me boys 'ere over there to fetch him if he be on your ship." The captain said before motioning to two 'men' with his hand and two fingers. They grabbed ahold of their rope and jumped from the railing of the Pearl landing hard on the deck of the Mimosa.
"'e's down there." Caley replied pointing down to the door leading down to the level below. "Third door on the right."
Will was at a loss for words as he watched the two crew members make their way through the door, swords unsheathed. Caley had given up Jack without a fight, how much did she really hate him? Why? He just didn't understand nor see her reasonings behind her actions. Next thing he knew the two were dragging a screaming and hollering Jack. He was struggling against them, cussing at them. They had him by the arms and tossed him over to the Black Pearl.
"We got 'im sir." One replied as he flung himself back onto the ship soon followed by the other.
"Good. Thank ye for your kindness and for cooperatin' with us so easily . .didn't quite catch yer name." the dark captain questioned as he watched Jack enter on the ship.
"Caley, Cap'n Caley McGraw of the Mimosa." She smiled widely showing off her teeth, not exactly pearly white, but what pirate ever had perfect teeth?
"I'll be rememberin' that one." The captain smiled acidically.
"O' course ye will, ye'll be takin' that one to the grave with ya." She laughed loudly, he chest bouncing with every hardy laugh she gave.
Will turned to Caley, anger rising in his blood streams, his face flushing red. "What was that about?! You gave them Jack! Now they have Elizabeth AND Jack!" He wanted to scream, but instead scolded her in a rushed yet normal voice.
"That's just it me boy, it's Jack." She grinned a cashier-cat like grin at him as she looked over at the apposing ship. She turned around to find Kat entering the deck from below. She went over and whispered in her ear. "Ready the ship, we're blowin' out of 'ere." Kat nodded and ran up to the wheel, the masts ready.
Will heard a yell from a crew member to the new captain. "Sir, now what do we do wif 'im?"
"Tie him up with a rope, first one you see." The captain replied back.
Jack grabbed a hold of the rope closest to him and handed it to the crewman. "Here lad, here's a rope if ye must tie me up." The man took it and tie his hands together by his wrist. Jack looked from the knot up from where he had grabbed the rope. It was attached to the sail. Jack leaned over and whispered into the man's ear. "Thanks mate."
He smiled widely and jumped up being pulled up by the rope. He hit his head off of the wooden rod holding a sail on and fell downwards landing on a lower rod, wobbling slightly before stopping.
"Gentlemen, I thought you had him." The captain sighed heavily as he watched Jack. "We need him alive ye know."
Jack quickly maneuvered his hands out of bondage and placed them on his hips before raising a finger at the crew. "Ah, but gents, ye forget, I'm cap'n Jack Sparrow." And with that, Jack grabbed a hold of another rope and swung across to the other ship. He released the rope, flipped gracefully and sturdily lands his feet on the hard wood deck of the Mimosa. He grinned at them, his face quickly dropping as he felt himself lose balance and fall backwards landing on his arse.
Caley laughed, "Wonderful escape artist you are."
And without a second thought the Mimosa began to pick up speed and turn towards the horizon leaving the Pearl at their rudder.
Back on the Pearl . . . Blackbeard's blood began to boil in his veins. "We had him, he was here and you let him GET AWAY!" He hollered, slashing the crew with his tongue and words.
"Wha' can we do cap'n?" Ragetti stuttered.
"GO AFTER THEM!" He ordered tossing his hands violently into the air. Soon the wind was blowing about them as the Black Pearl began to gain up speed.
