A/N: Hehehehe.Another castaway part.hehe

There was warm sand, and cool water. The sun was high. I didn't want to know where I was; I just wanted to sleep. But there was something moving near me, and I didn't want to wake up in some animal's stomach. I opened my eyes to see the afternoon sun shining down. I quickly closed them again, but it continued to shine right through my eyelids. I rolled over onto my stomach and then pulled myself onto my hands and knees. I looked up to where trees grew on the shoreline and saw Jack Sparrow looking at me. He was grinning like there was some big joke and I looked down at myself. My dress was in tatters and my bodice was clearly visible even though I had a dress on over it. Jack started to laugh and I groaned. The last thing I needed was Jack Sparrow starring at me the whole day. I stood up and proceeded to walk up the beach to where palm trees grew.

Jack watched me as I climbed up one of the shorter palm trees. It took me the good part of 20 minutes to climb up to where the coconuts grew. And there wasn't even a lot when I did manage to get up there. I knocked down four and then slide down to the ground. But when I reached the ground, there was only two at the foot of the tree. I eyed Jack, and then picked the coconuts up and walked down the beach. If I was going to be stuck with Jack on an island, then I should at least not have to listen to him constantly.

It had been an hour since I had last seen Jack. Sand itched against my skin and my skin crawled from the feeling it gave me. I was dangling my feet in a river. The water was cool and the hot sun was willing me to slip into the water. I looked around me, and once I made sure that no one was watching, I pulled off my dress and laid it down on a rock. I jumped into the water and it was like being reborn again. I scrubbed my skin raw of all the sand and grim. Then, suddenly out of no where I felt something swim past my leg. For the past minute or so I had been floating on the water, and this time when I put my feet down I couldn't touch the bottom. I felt something again and I started to swim for the shore. Then something grabbed my leg and I was pulled under the water. ********************

Jack had eaten the two coconuts that he had stolen from Abby. It had taken him a good hour to husk them to get to where the milk was soft fruit was, but he managed it. He was feeling hot and sweaty, so Jack headed inland to look for a place to drink. Sadly, Abby had gotten the idea before him. Jack grinned. Abby was in the middle of a river with only a bodice on. Her dress was lying on a rock, not to far away. Jack went and picked it up. He climbed a tree and let it hang down just a bit. Abby wasn't the tallest person in the world, and it would be just out of her reach. Jack turned back to see Abby drifting off into deeper water. His grin widened. Jack pulled off his shirt and slipped silently into the water. *********************

I had to fight to keep my head above water. Then, just as quickly as my leg was grabbed, what ever it was was gone. Sputtering, and waving my arms about, I broke to the surface. I swam to the shore, and collapsed there. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate on my breathing. There was a moment when I felt something move. The sun was blocked and my eyes flew open. I sat up and my head hit something hard. There was a yell and it was some time before I was able to see straight again. When I did manage to open my eyes, Jack Sparrow was sitting across from me, his body was dripping with water and he was rubbing his head. I made the connection at once. "It was you! You grabbed my leg!" Jack laughed as I got to my feet and walked off. I walked over to where I had left my dress. It was gone. I saw it up in a tree a few feet away. I walked over and reached up. It was just out of my reach. I jumped and pulled at the skirt.

There was a loud ripping sound. When I did manage to get my dress down, There was a tare that went along the seam of the dress. There was a hysterical laughter behind me, and I turned to face Jack. "That wasn't funny Jack." Jack only laughed harder; he leaned on a tree to stop himself from falling over. I saw Jack's shirt and I went and picked it up. With one strong yank I ripped the shirtsleeve. Jack stopped laughing and lunged at me. I easily moved out of the way and finished ripping the shirt's seam. Jack snarled and tackled me. He held me down and pointed his gun at my cheek. The cold medal touched my cheek and I shivered. "That was my favorite shirt you just tore!" Jack thought for a moment, before his face was full of anger, "That was my only shirt!" I freed my knee and hit him right between the legs.

Jack rolled off of me and groaned, "You cheated." I smiled down at Jack, but my smile turned to a frown when I caught the look on his face. Then suddenly a blade appeared below my chin. I didn't need to know who it was, "Worm, you know me well enough to know that a knife at my throat won't do much good." I felt a hand slip around my middle and Worm started to fiddle with one of the buttons on my bodice. I slapped at his hand only to feel the blade slice a bit at the tender skin under my chin. I took a deep breath, "What do you want, Worm?" Worm kissed my shoulder and made my stomach turn, almost bringing my breakfast back up. "I would think you would know that, Abby." The words that came from my mouth next made me gage. I couldn't believe I was saying this, "Why don't you ask, and you might just get it." I felt the knife leave my neck and Worm turned me around. His hot, revolting breath blew on my face. He leaned in, but I was faster. I pulled his gun from his belt, pointed it to his stomach and fired.

Worm went stiff. He looked down at the blood soaking and I pushed him backward. He fell into the water, and his body floated away. Jack stood up and lifted my chin. "That's a nasty cut." He went to the river with a torn piece of his shirt, and out of no where a knife flew through the air and stabbed his arm. I ran forward to see Worm, more than half dead, fall back into the water, dead. Jack sat down on the bank and attempted to pull the knife from his arm. I shook my head and sat down next to him. I pulled out the knife with one good tug. Jack howled, "Watch the goods, luv!" I rolled my eyes, "Stop moving and being such a baby!" I took Jack's shirt and soaked it with water. He hissed through his teeth as I pressed it to the wound. "Would you stop fussing already. You complain more than Tara did when I tried to get her to wear pants!" Jack was ready for a fight, "Well lets put a hole through your arm and see how you bloody like it!"

"It wouldn't hurt this much if you stayed still!" Jack watched me as I made a patch for his arm. What I really needed was fresh cloth and a fire to boil water. But he would lose more than half his blood by then. I rinsed out his shirt and then soaked it again. When I pressed it to his wound this time, Jack didn't complain. "Hold it there while I find something to use as a sling." I walked off, but I had to face facts. There wasn't much else that I could use. I pulled my dress off and walked over to where the knife was on the shore. Jack raised his eyebrows at me. He watched as I cut enough fabric for the sling out of my dress.

Then and arm sneaked around my shoulder and a knife was placed an inch away from my neck. "What is it with people, knives, and my throat!" Someone laughed a few feet away. "But it's such a pretty throat." I knew that voice and laugh as well as I knew my name. The knife went away and I turned around. "Ralf! What are you doing here?" I hugged my old friend and over his shoulder I saw three of my other sailing friends, Eric, Davie, and good old Nick. I hugged each of them in turn. Eric kissed me on the cheek and then they finally noticed Jack. "It's he the pirate that attacked us two years ago?" Nick pulled out his gun, but I put a hand up to stop him. Jack leap to his feet and did a fancy bow, "I'm Jack Sparrow. Maybe yeh heard of me?" The, in no time, all of them had their guns out. "Yeah, we've heard of you. If you laid one finger on Abe, it will be your death!" I grinned and turned back to Jack. "You hear that Jack? If you have laid one finger on me, you're dead. Would now be a good time to give them a list, or should I wait until we reach a most suitable port, so we can hand your straight over to the soldiers?"

`Jack grinned, and I suddenly heard his words before he spoke them. He was going to tell them, "Well, I'm not sure Abigail Bartholomew, what do you plan to do? What would your mother do? Oh, what was her nickname?" I had had enough. I walked over and punched him square in the jaw. He fell over on to his back, "Now that's not nice. Oh yes, now I remember. It was Silver Arrow." I turned back to Ralf. He looked at me and I could see the shock and pain in his eyes. His brother had been killed by my cousin Richard. "I should have known." Ralf put his pistol away, and walked away. Davie starred at me blankly. "Is this some kind of joke?" Eric walked right up to Jack, and dug his pistol into Jack's cheek, "You lying bastard. We don't need soldiers, we'll kill him right here!" Nick looked at me, a pleading look in his eyes. "Is this true, Abe? Are you a pirate?" I sighed. My heart was torn in two. Ralf was still walking away, I thought he was crying, "I am related to her directly. But I am no pirate. You know as much as I do that I hate every last one of them. Sparrow over here just happened to save my life."

Eric took his pistol from Sparrow's head. Jack walked over as if to hide behind me, but he whispered in my ear, "It's Captain Sparrow." I elbowed him in the stomach. "And that would be cheating.again," his words came out raspy. "I don't know about you Sparrow, but I don't remember you having a ship at all." Jack swaggered right up to me, his face less than an inch from mine. "That's because you're a woman and you know nothing about piracy. As you said yourself." I balled my hand into a fist and was about to punch Sparrow once more in the stomach, but he caught my hand. "I wouldn't be trying anything just yet." I walked towards Eric, and without even asking, took his sword from him. Jack knew what I was about to do, and he ran down the beach, yelling all the way. I followed him. He had lived long enough. Nick, Davie, Eric, and even Ralf followed me. Once I caught up with Sparrow, he didn't have a weapon, so he tossed sand in my face. The most it did for him was give him a second to grab the sword Davie held out to him.

We began to circle each other. "You think it's wise, Abby, to cross blades with the likes of me." I stopped circling and got into attack position. "The only reason your still in one piece from our last sword fight was because William saved your life. But he isn't here to help you now." Jack attacked me, and forced me to brace myself. I knew at once that he had been holding back on me when we first fought. But I could still keep up. I thought at one point I caught Ralf smiling. Then my back slammed into a tree and Jack pinned me there. "As I said before luv, crossing blades with a pirate, isn't the smart thing to do." Then he leaned in and kissed me. I tried to move, but he pinned me. When he finally released me I was so mad I could tare him limb for limb with my own hands. I walked over to Nick and pulled out his pistol. Then all four men jumped and grabbed my arms to hold me back.

Jack laughed and gave the sword back to Davie. "Now, might you be telling me how you got here, and if you are planning to take us back?" I was still trying to get at him, and I stopped struggling at their words. "You mean you don't know where you are?" I turned back to them, "If we knew, then we wouldn't be standing around here trying to kill each other!" Ralf broke out laughing, along with Eric and Davie. Nick on the other hand seemed slightly disturbed by the whole thing, "Now quit your laughing. If they didn't think to take a walk all the way across the island it's not their fault! How could they know they were on the other side of Tortuga?" Jack's face brightened at once, but I had a different opinion. "You mean to tell me we have been on the other side of Tortuga this whole time!" Eric nodded while his laughter carried on. His face was beat red. "Oh come on. It isn't that funny. Anyway, why are the four of you on this side of Tortuga if you hate pirates?" I looked at them and their laughter stopped and Davie pulled out his sword. "Are you charging us with piracy? Now that wouldn't be very wise." But He walked towards Jack, acting as if he had accused him. Ralf stepped forward and tapped Davie on the shoulder. Davie put his sword away and Ralf explained.

"It was Tara, Abe. She found we were in Port Royal for repairs, and told us you were missing. We patched up our ship as fast as we could, and then set out to get you." Ralf handed me my locket. I gasped and touched the place on my neck where it was supposed to be. "We found it floating on a piece of drift wood, Abe. It was in this area, so we thought we would look for you here." Jack took the locket from his hands and started to fiddle with it. "I know I've seen this before somewhere." I snatched at it, but Jack was too quick for me. A surprised look crossed Jack's face, and he quickly covered whatever surprised him. Jack tossed it back to me, "That's a pretty piece. But a dear, luv, and tell me where you got it?" I eyed Jack and thought there was no harm in him knowing. "My mother gave it to me, and her mother to her, and her mother to her. I've lost track after that."

Jack looked me dead in the eye, and started to walk down the beach. I ran after him. "Jack! What are you thinking? What do you mean you've seen it before?" Jack turned back and grinned at me. "That's for me to know, and you to find out, luv." I looked after him, and for the first time I was worried that I might be left out of something that was important to me or my family. I ran up to him and screeched in his ear. Jack backed away so quickly he fell over. I heard Eric behind me, "I forgot she could do that." Jack eyed me before telling me the truth. "My grandmother, long before she died. I must have been only four, but she told me about some legend that had to do with a seashell locket, alright?" But before I could answer, Ralf walked over and smiled at me, "I knew you were no pirate. Here." He handed me a cloak to wear for when we went into Tortuga. I eyed Jack as he tried to put what was left of his shirt back on.

"I didn't know you cared, Abe?" He used my nickname with question, grinning and showing multiple gold teeth that glowed. "That's Miss Abigail, Sparrow." Jack turned towards me and put a finger in me face. "Captain Sparrow, luv." The two of us fought and quarreled all the way into Tortuga.
