Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! There's no stopping me! I'm on a role and it's scaring me.
On with chapter two. I own no part of POTC. Damn!
I hope I can keep your interest for my other stories. (The ones who suggested stuff'll be there.)
Jack: *cough*Peer pressure*cough*
**********************************************************************
Hannah joined Jack in the shallows with a devilish smile. The water was really warm and crystal clear. They locked eyes and played around, flirting with one another.
On the other side of the island, Gob was exploring the terrain. He climbed some rocks to get to a cave he spotted. When he got there he found he was too scared to go in. Disappointed with himself, he headed further up the cliffside. He finally got to the top and realized you could see the whole island from up there. He kicked a rock over the edge. His eyes widened at the height. He felt his heart beat quicken as he tempted himself to get further to the edge. Before Gob knew what was happening, he found himself in the air. The first thing he noticed was that his feet weren't on the ground. Then he realized that he had been pushed. As he fell, he twisted around and saw Hatchet. He saw his cold, emotionless expression. Gob flailed his arms at the shrinking figure even though he was too far away to grasp anything. Everything moved in slow motion. He flipped around again and saw all of the palm trees growing closer. He spun once more as he plummeted to the ground below. He heard one last thing before he was engulfed by blackness.
"That was for my father!"
**********************
Hannah and Jack sat on the beach, their clothes drying on a line between to palm trees. They noticed Hatchet coming up the beach with an unreadable expression on his face.
"Did you run into Gob?" Asked Jack turning around squinting. He was sitting with his legs stretched out and propping himself up with his arms behind him. "We should be headed out."
At first, Hatchet paused. "He... um."
"What?" Jack asked, now worried.
"He fell. Off of a cliff. I tried to get there in time. but.. I couldn't grab him."
"Oh my lord!" Yelled Hannah.
"What?!" Jack was completely shocked. "What were you doing up there anyway? I said to stay within site!" Jack tried to rationalize the situation.
Hannah started to sob and buried her face in Jack's chest. "Oh, Jack! I just want to go home! I can't take all of this death anymore!"
Jack held her. "I agree. Let's go back to the ship." He said grimly. He directed Hatchet to follow them back to the ship.
That night, they all stayed silent through most of supper. Hannah still choked back tears as she looked at her food. Jack looked up at her and noticed she wasn't eating. He had lost his appetite too. Then he looked up at Hatchet and noticed that ha was eating like normal and didn't even notice him staring. This got Jack's mind going.
The next day was slow and silent like that night had been. Night came around again and Jack sat in his quarters contemplating what to do. Hannah came in to talk to him. He confided in her what he was thinking.
"I'm not positive that it was an accident." Said Jack.
"What are you saying?" Asked Hannah.
"He tried to kill him once before. What's to stop him from doing it twice?"
She gasped into her hand. "Oh, no. Why didn't you say anything?"
"I wasn't sure. The facts are adding up. I just don't have any proof." He said rubbing his chin.
"Um.." She started.
"What?"
"I did see something strange.."
"What!" He asked impatiently.
"He had on Gob's coin pouch."
"How do you know?"
"Gob showed it to me." She sniffed. "It was really original. He was proud of it, and showed me." She started to cry again.
Jack held her again, rubbing her back. "I'll figure out what to do."
Outside Jack's door, Hatchet had heard the whole conversation. 'Those bloody traitors!' He thought. 'There not going to turn me in or maroon me!'
Hannah left Jack's room later to go to her quarters. She was startled by Hatchet that slinked out of the shadows.
"Oh! Umm Hatchet. Hello." She tried to act natural.
"Still upset over old Gob, eh?" He crept closer. He stretched out his arms to console her.
"No, that's all right. I'll be fine." She said backing away. She faked a quick smile.
"All right. Goodnight." He said with a slimy smirk.
~~~~~~~The sun rose that day with a red glow.
Jack spoke with Hannah, and she decided to go to her mother's home. Jack sailed the Pearl there swiftly and safely. Luck was on their side, for Hannah's mother lived very close to where they were now. The speed of the Black Pearl was a great help as well. They arrived that evening and got two rooms at an inn overlooking the docks. It was too late at night to go showing up on anyone's doorstep. Jack stayed in Hatchet's room so he wouldn't seem suspicious.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hannah woke especially early. She'd not slept well and decided to get some sea air in her lungs. To her dismay, Hatchet had the very same idea. They were on the patio area at the front of the inn facing the docks.
"Morning." He said.
"Mm." She grunted and nodded. She tried not to make eye contact, as he was getting more un-nerving. She wished with all her being that Jack would wake up and come out there.
He came unnaturally closer to her. Her first reaction was to look to the side of herself that he was not, to check for room to move. As she looked back up, he somehow appeared even closer.
"... Umm do you mind?" She finally mustered the courage to say.
"Not at all." He grabbed her and tried to kiss her.
She pushed him away with disgust. "How dare you! Why would I want to be with a murderer?!" Even as the words came from her mouth, she knew she had made a huge mistake.
Jack was just coming outside, rubbing his eyes and yawning as he heard 'murderer'. He ran to her side.
"Oh, is that so?" Hatchet spat. "What do you think pirates do, miss?"
"Pirates don't kill their crewmembers. That is unless of course they want to be burned in the deepest circle of hell for all eternity." Said Jack.
"Well, Gob killed my father, his crewmember, by not sounding the warning!!" Hatchet screamed as he lunged at Jack.
***********************************************************************
Still more to go! ... I need to get some sleep... zzzZZZzzzZZZzzz
Me: *collapses*
Jack: Aww. Little Cap'n Rummy fall-down-go-boom. Rather sweet when your not reeking havoc.
Me: zzzZZ—why's the rum gone—Zzzz—savvy?--ZZZzzzZZZzzz
Jack: *snort* Even in your sleep you steal my lines! ........... Well since the writer's asleep, I guess I have to tell you to read and review. Love's suggestions and all that too. .. I think that's all. No, wait. You're supposed to send rum... ya... that's it. Rum. *Devilish smile*
