Chapter 23
DIS: I OWN NOTHIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once Jack and Angeline were aboard and loaded into the brig, Norrington pushed the ramp that was in between the Black Pearl and the Dauntless leaving the rest of the crew and Will on the Pearl. Will saw this and quickly grabbed a rope and swung over to the other side landing in front of Norrington. "You almost left me." Norrington shrugged, "Oops." He said in a less than sincere voice. Just then Murtogg, one of the officials on the ship called, "And what of the other pirates and the Pearl, Commodore?"
"Leave them be, twas only Sparrow that I wanted." Norrington called over his shoulder.
"And what about Angeline?" Alex called angrily over his shoulder, "If it was only Jack you wanted, why did you take her too?"
"A slight bonus, on my account." Norrington said before heading to his cabin.
Alex turned to go after him but a hand held him back. He turned and was face to face with his father, "That is not a good idea, Alex."
"Didn't you hear what he said?"
"Yes but if you react like that the plan won't work." Will said trying to calm his son.
"What if Jack's plan doesn't work! Huh? HUH? THEN WHAT?" Alex said his voice becoming louder with each word.
"It will work, Alex. Jack knows what he's doing. If you do not trust him then trust your own father. I've known Jack for awhile and even though he seems a little....off, he's a good smart man."
"He's a bloody pirate dad! They cannot be trusted." Alex said still angry.
"And what of the girl? Is she not his daughter? Would that not make her a pirate as well?" Will said almost getting angry at Alex for talking like that about pirates. Alex was part pirate himself.
"That's different! She's a girl and she's definitely nothing like a pirate!"
Will looked at his son. He couldn't believe what he just said. "Are you so blinded by love that you cannot even see that she is almost exactly like Jack in every way?
"What do you mean?" Alex said questionably.
"She walks like him, talks like him, and acts just like him. She's almost an exact copy of him!"
"She is not!"
"Alex, do you not remember how you met her? Did she not beat you in a sword fight?"
"She cheated! She told me the donkey was on fire!"
Will chuckled, "Jack and I also fought against each other."
"And what was the outcome?" Alex said expecting a long story about how his father had beaten Captain Jack Sparrow.
"He cheated. He threw sand in my face. So you see dear son, their not so different."
"You lost to Jack!" Alex said laughing slightly.
"I would not be the one to talk, Mr. I lost because I care more about my ass than about my life." Will said teasing him.
"I do not care more about my ass than my life! Its just it caught me off guard!" Alex said defending himself.
"Sure, Sure." Will said laughing.
IN THE BRIG
Jack woke up to find that his daughter was asleep. Her head lying peacefully in his lap . He smiled and brushed a stray hair from her face. He thought about the plan that he had so thoughtfully came up with. Would it work? He hoped so. For his sake and most of all for Angeline's. He looked at her sleeping peacefully and smiled. His baby girl was all grown up and in love, and he couldn't do anything about it.
He thought of what would happen if his plan worked and they weren't killed. Would she stay with the Turner's? Would she forget about her pirating past and turn into a proper English girl like Elizabeth? It wasn't impossible, improbable, yes, but not impossible. His heart sunk at the thought of leaving her behind at Port Royal while the Pearl sailed away. He wouldn't be able to take being without her on the ship, it would seem much too big without her smiling face.
He had always thought the Pearl was his everything, that he would survive as long as he was at its wheel. It was his freedom, his life, and his home. But since Angeline was born, he found that he needed her more than he had ever needed the Pearl, he loved the girl more than rum! Which was a lot! He dismissed the idea of her staying behind in his head, she wouldn't leave the sea. It was in her blood.
Angeline stirred from her place in his lap and looked up at him, "Good mornin' da'!" She said smiling slightly.
"Mornin' princess. N' how did ye sleep?"
"Not well." Angeline said getting up and pacing around the cell.
"N' why's tha'?" Jack asked holding out his hand so she could help him up.
"I had a dream." She said pulling Jack abruptly to his feet.
"'Bout what?" Jack said questionably.
"I dreamt that we were at the hanging and Alex saved us, but then something happened and all I saw was red and felt a ton of pain." Angeline said shuddering slightly.
Jack stopped and put a finger to his chin in a thoughtful way, "Don't your dreams always come true, luv?"
"Sometimes." Angeline said shrugging, "Mum says tha tha's cause her great great gran'ma was a gypsy."
"At least we were saved righ'?" Jack said teasing her.
"Daaaaad!' Angeline whined playfully slapping his arm. "I was in PAIN!"
"Couldn't be emotional pain? Ya know wha' I mean luv?" Jack said trying to make sense of her dream.
"Sure, why not? Ye go on believin' tha' dad, k?" Angeline said rather sarcastically.
Just then a noises were heard coming from the stair well. Jack instantly laid down while Angeline stood at the bars. Jack pulled her arm down so that she was lying down next to him.
"Jus' one question da'." Angeline said looking at the ceiling.
"Yeah?" Jack said questionably.
"Why are we on the floor?"
Jack shrugged from his place on the ground, "Jus' a habit, I guess."
The noises came closer and Angeline sat up on her elbows. Just beyond the bars she could make out the slight shape of two people. One was shorter and slightly skinnier than the other. She cocked an eyebrow waiting for them to step out into the light.
"Ello luv" came a voice.
OOO CLIFFY.......kinda........sorta.......not really.....no.....but thats ok hehe.....lolz ANYWAYS
I know this chapter isn't that good but I thought I should put some humor in it because it was getting kind of depressing...lol! sry dont hurt me hehe!

Reese Sparrow (HE BETTER SHOW UP!!lol! how bad would it b for them to b callin his name and hes not there to get it!lol!) Trinity144 (Ya never know) Stardra*(Ill try for a lil more action, its just so challenging to write...but trust me there'll be a lot more soon thanks for the suggestion) AND CaptainCatalina (very very orignal bc no one has said that b4 for fear of being unoriginal so in a way...u were original...Savvy?)
