Hey guys! New chapter! But first…as promised…I am about to flame a few flames I got on Friday!
First to Morningstar Devereaux -
Fist off,-calling me bitch? Jeez, what side of the PMS bed did you wake up on? I don't recall ever doing anything to you honey. And secondly, my "mindless random crap" seems to be attracting a lot of attention from people whom find this stuff amusing…LIKE IT IS INTENDED!
Whether you think so or not is not really of my concern seeing as you are an insignificant floater who was obviously having a bad day and decided to take it out on an innocent story. Next time you feel like taking your anger out on something-go yell at yourself in the mirror.
THIS FLAME HAS BEEN BURNED!
SECONDLY to Black Pearl-
First off I would like to comment you on your original name. [sarcastic snigger] I am sure that the other 543 girls out there with the same name would appreciate it if you made it a little more personal. Secondly honey, I know what his name is. In fact I even know what it means in elvish. Whether you believe it or not I have enough sense to actually read the book before claiming I know what I am talking about. And I really don't care if you can't find this funny. I am sure I can find a few people out there that would love to disagree with you! Can I ask you a question though…the addition sign thing…a little over dramatic there. A simple hit of the 'enter' key would have done nicely. My last comment to you is…lasto lalaith nin! Heniach nin?
THIS FLAME HAS BEEN BURNED!
On a final note to all future flamers, I thank you, because you make that little number at the bottom of my story go up. You people have to understand, I had 77 reviews but now I have 79. THANK YOU!
And now…here is what (most) of you came for!
~~~
For all of your information neither Will nor I won the bet.
It took three weeks.
THREE WEEKS!!!!!!!!!
And no, for all of you out there wondering, Will and I did not have an illicit love affair that we later had to deny on behalf of Melissa.
Please people, after all of this time I would think you could have learned a few things about what I am NOT!
Actually the most entertaining thing I had done in all those weeks was to learn how to tie a knot, fall off the ship six times, and form a Hate/Hate relationship with Will. Stupid annoying pirate boy.
So I was wringing out my hair one day (did I say six times, I meant seven) when Will comes up to me wanting to go to Tortuga.
"We are kind of low on supplies, and Tortuga is the closest port." He said winding a coil of rope around his arm.
"There is no way I am going to that place. One person takes me as being a hooker, and that's it. I am left with memories I'd rather not have." I replied giving him an evil look.
"Well you don't have much of a choice do you?" Will said trying to be all macho Pirate Man. "Unless you want to jump off the ship again and swim off?" I take the Pirate Man comment back. More of Smart Ass Really Needs an Ass Whuppin Pirate Boy.
"Alright Pirate Boy, you asked for it." I seethed. But just as I was about to open up a can of whup ass on his ass, for the second time in three weeks someone grabbed the back of my shirt and pulled back. "Ok, who else is now going to get their ass kicked?" I asked turning around.
"'Ello Lass. Miss me?" Jack said smiling with all of his golden teeth glory.
"No." I replied simply. His face fell a little and I felt bad for him. "Ok I missed you a little." I added hugging him.
"Yes, that is what I thought." He said. I could hear the satisfied smile in his reply.
"Ok-get off me." I said pushing myself away, "Where are me mates?"
"Well, you see. We had kind of a problem." Jack replied looking a little more than worried.
"What are you saying?" I asked as calmly as I could.
"Here- I will let this one tell you-she seems to have a be'er grasp of these things than I do." Jack stepped away to reveal Melissa standing directly behind him looking rather satisfied with herself.
"Basically," She said. "Cherice is back at school, and Legolas is back in Mirkwood where he belongs."
"Wait-so Cherice is gone? And so is Legolas?!" I screeched trying to get the facts straight.
"Yup." Melissa replied simply.
"But I didn't even get to say goodbye to Legolas!" I cried sinking to my knees. I wasn't so concerned about Cherice, because I knew she was back in a place where she couldn't hurt herself or her fellow elf.
"He gave you a note! He gave one to Cherice too, but seeing as she's not here…I am kinda scared about what he wrote to her…Here take yours." She replied handing me a folded sheet of paper.
The note, incase you all are wondering, read exactly as thus-
Mel,
It was a pleasure knowing you. I am deeply saddened by the fact that we probably will never see each other again. Whatever magic that brought me to you, Cherice, and Melissa, has with no doubt dissolved by now. You will forever be in my memories.
Silo Anor bo men lin,
Legolas
"He is such a sweet Elven Prince dude." I said wiping a tear away from my face. Come on people, I was sad. After knowing the guy for a while it was going to be hard to let him go. ESPECIALLY because I didn't say goodbye. It was like 'ouch' to the 10th power.
"Yea I know I will miss him too." Melissa said sadly. "But anyway, this brings up the subject of us getting back."
"Wait-you want to go back?" I asked, highly confused. "Even after just meeting your Willy boy?"
"Actually-" Melissa whispered pulling me aside, "Yes, he is a little different than I thought, cute yes. But maybe not my type. I will tell you one thing-he is pretty good for a good make out session."
I groaned and stood back up fully, "Ok, so how do we get out of here?"
"Ye two are leaving?" Jack asked coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around my shoulders. "But we just got back."
"I know Jack, but I really need to get home, I have a lot of homework and my mother is making macaroni tonight and I have dish duty." I think we all know the importance of Dish Duty? Besides, I was really tired of falling off of the ship. And I really wanted my bed, and a shower, and soap, and the internet, and my books…sorry.
"But I don't want you to go." Jack said squeezing me.
"I know, the life on the high seas is highly appealing, but Mel is right. I have homework too." Melissa said shifting on her feet. I am sure she was thinking of a nice, hot, soapy shower too.
"But what about me? Aren't I appealin' enough to make ye stay?" Jack asked pulling me around and looking me in the eye.
"Jack, you have to understand something. I DO NOT LIKE YOU LIKE THAT!" I yelled. "IF YOU WERE ABOUT 25 YEARS YOUNGER AND ACTED LIKE YOU WERE 13 YEARS OLDER THEN YOU MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE!" I snorted and coughed for a second before regaining my breath and turning back around.
"Now, Melissa. Tell me how to go home."

For some reason that chapter seemed a little different. Anyway-the next chapter will be the last. [drops a bomb] oops sorry about that. Hope I didn't hit any toes! [people explode] [I cringe] ooh, you might just want to put a band aid on that!
I am possibly thinking of a sequel though. POSSIBLY! And reviews like "OMG! YOU HAVE TO WRITE A SEQUEL!" will not make me write one, though I am flattered that you want another story.
[waves] see you then!
