"Hide in the cupboard!" her mother whispered hurryingly,

"But mother what about you?"

"I'm getting ready for the pirates, you must hide. God knows what they will do with a young girl barely 16. GO!" Her mother ushered her daughter into the cupboard. They could hear the town screaming, burning fires lighting up the night sky.

"But I can fight!" she insisted,

"Go!" she did what she was told. They heard a loud crack and a thud, Alexandria's mother took her sword out of the sheath as her father came crashing in, parrying blows from a dark pirate who came barging into their sea shore home. She watched through a small crack in the door as her father lunged a fierce attack only to be pierced by the counter. He fell with blood from his chest on his hands. Alexandria fought the urge to get out of the cupboard as her mother screamed and attacked the dark figure from behind, only to be shunted aside, with his sword pointed at her neck. More pirates ran in grabbing everything off the shelves and tables, Alexandria couldn't stand it, she pushed open the cupboard door, took her knife out of her boot, and drew it into the man closest to her. He fell with a cry, hands over his bleeding stomach.

"Alexandria!" she heard her mother scream, still a sword at her neck.

Alexandria made to kill the next but was caught by another behind her, who clasped her hands behind her back.

"Your mother, is she?" the first dark figure said. Her mother didn't move, Alexandria nodded, "Well, say your farewell," and he slit her throat.

"NO!" Alexandria struggled to get out of the dirty man's grasp.

"Lets go," the dark figure said. And the dirty man let her go, she rushed to her parents. Tears staining her cheeks, blood staining her hands.

"Wait!" she said, calling to the dark figure, "What is your name pirate?" she asked daringly,

"Why must this pretty lady know?" he asked,

"I am going to kill you." She said slowly, staring at the dangerous man. He laughed,

"Well, call me. Jack Sparrow." He said, and turned swiftly.

"I will kill you!" she said clutching the knife, and ran towards him, she slashed at his face. His cheek began to bleed, the wound was deep, but not life threatening to her disappointment. His men threw her back into the house.

"Damn you girl!" He said clutching a piece of cloth on his cheek, with a laugh he left.

"I will hunt you down! I will tear you apart!" She screamed. "I will have my revenge Jack Sparrow!"

Jack Sparrow. Hmm, sounds good. Captain Jack Sparrow. Hmm, sounds even better. Jack thought as he steered his old, or new Black Pearl. He heard a shout from the lower deck, from the cargo.

"Captain!" some one called. He heard a cry, a mans' cry, Jack quickly rushed down to the lower deck. He found a young girl with great swordsmanship, and long black hair, attacking one of his crewmen who was… not doing very well in the life and death situation.

"'ello there luvie, are you having fun on my ship?" he said swaying on the railing. The girl smiled with a fury in her eyes, she disarmed her opponent and raised her sword to his thick neck. "Oi, just let my man go." He said putting his hands up, a signal to stop. The girl moved in closer to her opponent, still the sharp, at his neck.

"No, why should I? You didn't let my mother go." Jack frowned,

"Now, now luv, no need to act like that. I don't even know your mother-" he said gesturing with his hands a lot.

"Of course not!" she shouted angrily, tears falling. "You and your crew just barged into out town, burning and stealing. Killing! Of course you wouldn't know who my mother was, you killed so many! How can I blame you for not remembering!" she rambled. Jack walked slowly closer,

"Now, now luv, I think you've got the wrong ship-"

"Is anyone here called Jack Sparrow?" she demanded. Jack bowed smiling. The girl smirked, "I'm on the right ship, I see your face is intact." She said. "You killed my parents. Right before my eyes. It's taken me three years to find you, and now I'm going to kill you. Like I told you."

"Whoa! Wait luvie! I think you've been misled." He said anxiously, "Three years ago, I was marooned on an island, my ship stolen from me by Barbossa luvie," Jack told her, trying to laugh, Alexandria lowered her sword slowly as her victim began to breathe again.

"You lie." She said and before she could point her weapon at the Captain. The rest of the crew were on the stairs with their guns cocked and pointing in her direction. Alexandria dropped her sword, "I will kill you." She said, as she was bound and led into the Captain's cabin.
