Chapter 2: A Different World
Captain Jack Sparrow lay in his warm berth, staring endlessly at his cabin ceiling. He lie thinking about how slow things were going on the Black Pearl. No gold, no women (accept Anamaria), absolutely nothing at all. He's sure that the crew was always complaining behind his back; it had been this way for at least a month. We don't even have rum, he thought, granted I do drink it up pretty fast. He got out of bed, walked slowly over to the window taking his sweet little time, and glared outside. It was dark and he had the perfect, enchanting view of the sea. Usually, he'd be proud that he had his own ship and his own crew and his own view of freedom, but right now, all he wanted to do was be a pirate. Pillage and plunder, get drunk, but most of, he wanted...
Anamaria burst through the cabin door, " Caption, you're needed in the map room." (I don't know what else to call it). Jack yelped in shock. He swerved around, his heart beating faster than usual. He noticed it was Anamaria, so he calmed down. His eyes narrowed in anger.
" Ya' know love," he started out calmly, " ya' could've knocked! Ya' scared me half ta' death, Anamaria!" he shouted, finishing his opinion. Anamaria stared at him with an eyebrow raised, waiting for a reply. Jack looked in her eyes and felt bad for yelling at her. He decided to be a gentleman and apologize," I'm sorry, Anamaria. Just knock next time, please." Jack put his hands in a praying motion, thanking her.
"So, what am I needed for, love?" Jack asked, walking over to Anamaria slowly. When he was standing in front of her, he put his hands on her shoulders.
Anamaria stood up straight, respecting him because he was superior and responded," It's okay Jack, it happens to everyone." She stepped back from his shoulder grip and bowed," Gibbs only told me to summon you, Captain."
Jack nodded understanding her knowledge of the situation and dismissed her. Before she closed the door, Jack pointed out," Oh, and Ana?" She turned to face him. Jack smiled, showing his colorful, yet charming grin. "Ya' don't have ta' respect me that much." His voice was soft and rich with his Enlish accent. Anamaria thanked her friend by returning a warm smile. She quietly closed the heavy door behind her.
Jack quickly grabbed his coat and exited his cabin. Taking his time to look at the Caribbean, he made his way to the map room. He stopped to look at the waves for a moment," Freedom." (That was kinda cheesy huh? Oh, sorry back to the story). A small breeze came and gave him a slight chill. When he finally reached the map room, he found Gibbs inspecting a certain map.
Jack figured Gibbs hadn't noticed his presence because he seemed to be concentrating pretty hard. Jack looked around to see if anyone else was in the room, he smiled and closed the door as quiet as possible. Jack turned around and faced Gibbs. Still smiling, he shouted," Cannon fire!" Gibbs yelled in shock and dived under the table. Jack roared out laughing at his well-thought-of prank. Gibbs noticed Jack having a good time laughing and rolled his eyes as he crawled out from underneath the table.
" You're still young Jack, but surely you'd know not to startle a man when he's deep in concentration'?" Gibbs asked annoyed and partly angry at Jack.
Jack was on his knees laughing hysterically," Guess I was younger than I thought I was, mate." Jack got on his feet, snickering every once in a while. He walked over to Gibbs and the map he was inspecting. Jack hadn't recoginized the waters when he looked at the large, warn-out map.
"Where is this?" Jack asked, refusing to be in a fun mood. He looked at Gibbs expecting him to have an answer.
" About one mile from where we are, Captain. According to the map, no one sails these waters because of mysterious disappearances. People say that when ships sail here, even well known pirate ships mind you, they vanish. Like they never even came close." Gibbs said quietly as if someone was listening. Jack looked at the map and raised his eyebrows in curiosity. He looked at Gibbs still having the expression of curiosity on his face.
"Now, Jack, I know that look. That's curiosity and competition in yer' pirate eyes I see. This is dangerous territory, Captain, to go in means sure death for you and the crew. Please, let's turn around to Tortuga and stock up on goods. I know you've been cooped up on this ship, but it's not worth it," Gibbs suggested quietly. He looked at the pirate one last time, then went to go roll up the map.
" Wait. This is a perfect chance for us to finally have somethin' to look forward to," Jack started." We will sail these waters, no matter what the crew or yer' superstitious friends say," Jack ordered. He stood up straight and headed towards the door, proudly noticing his wild, pirate spirit. Jack opened the door to leave.
" Jack, wait!" Gibbs yelled from the table. Jack turned around. "Are you sure ya' can handle this, Captain?" Gibbs asked giving him respectable, but worried look.
" Gibbs, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow, savvy?" Jack stated in a reassuring manner. He waited patiently for Gibbs's response.
" Okay, Jack, but don't come cryin' to me when we're dyin'," Gibbs warned, pointing at Jack with threat. Jack let out a short laugh.
" Now that's somethin' to look forward to!" Jack shouted as he walked out the door. He shut the door quietly and walked towards the helm . Jack gave the helmsman the Bearings for the new location and walked fast towards his cabin hoping that no one would stop him to ask for help. He had just started feeling tired and didn't want to lose it. Finally, he had reached his warm, cozy cabin. When he entered he shut the door, took his cost and shirt off, and climbed into his berth. Still holding his shirt, he rolled it up and stuck it under his head for extra support. Jack sighed in relief that he had finally was going to get a decent night's sleep and put his hat over his eyes to shield them from candle light. Finally, sweet sleep, he thought.
Just when Jack was dozing off, he heard an extremely loud noise, like a crack of lightning. He yelled and jumped out of his berth. There was one slight problem though, he didn't jump out of his berth....
