Ellie awoke in a frightful mood. She was in a cold sweat from a terrible dream, but she couldn't remember the dream or more like nightmare she had; Ellie didn't really want to remember it anyways. She sat up in her bed at looked out the window; she never left the shade open, she hated the light from the moon unless she wasn't sleeping; so how come it was open now? Ellie curiously got out of bed and tip toed down the stairs of her tiny 3 room home; excluding the bathroom. BANG! 'What was that?' Ellie thought curiously and a little scared at the same time. She walked even faster down her stairs till she reached the last step and looked around her living room . . . BANG! There it was again; coming from the kitchen it sounded. Ellie crept through her tiny but warm home and found herself in her kitchen . . .Completely alone, 'but what was that sound from then?!' she thought agitated.

Ellie glanced once around her kitchen and noted that her seamstress table where she worked on repairing gowns for a living was knocked over on its side. She now was even more frightened and curious as to who . . . or what was in her house. She decided to go back upstairs and when she was half way up the stairs she felt really dizzy and fainted. She would have killed herself probably if it hadn't been for the mysterious person in her house and if she had been in her room she may have suffocated herself; so it was damn good that there was someone in the house at the time.

He picked her up and carried her to the couch near the stairs, then he laid Ellie down and caressed her beautiful hair out of her face and he admired her slim body and nice curves. He then looked at her at decided she was going to need some medical attention, she seemed to have lost consciousness by this time and this "Mysterious man" began to become quite nervous 'what if she dies and then I get blamed for it?' he thought. 'Oh great now I have to go get the medics and send them here with out them seeing me' He knew how to write well enough to get by and so he prepared a letter as fast as possible.

Dear medics,

Well she defiantly needs some medical atenson.

Well I beter be goin. She will be on the couch when ye get here!

Bye

He seemed pleased with his work and left for the town clinic. It was a short walk from Ellie's house; he rang the doorbell, left the letter on the step and ran around to the back to make sure they got it. A tall skinny man answer "hello?" he asked in a sleepy voice. There was no one there so he looked around and his eyes met the small white folded piece of parchment on the steps. "Eh, tom, look at this bloody strange note." "What?" the second voice of a man answered. "Says there is a girl, I think it's that seamstress's house; 92 Frankston Drive. We better go see what's wrong with her shouldn't we?" "Yeah hold on" the second voice mumbled. And 5 minutes later they where out the doors of there clinic.

Jack was quite relieved that they where on there way she didn't look very well when he left and all he could hope for was that se was going to be alright. HE walked to a small tavern near the docks; lights dimmed and only a bar tender half asleep with his head on the counter top. Jack stumbled inside; he needed a drink badly. /what if she died of something went wrong/ he would never be able to get over it; not now that he had just figured out what she needed to know for so long. Jack had met Ellie many years before; it seemed so long yet not so far in the past. He walked over to the counter asked the half drunkenly asleep man for some rum and a room and set his mug down and drank. He listened to his thoughts and then he remember that night so long ago.

Flashback*

Jack had known the captain of the Lady Kalian; it had been the ship Ellie had once sailed on before she had come here. She had been a pirate; a killing thief, that's what she had been. Of course Ellie never had dreamed of ever being part of such acts in her life, until she lost the only thing that mattered, the only that kept her going and so she was turned cold and she vowed that someday she would kill the man who had taken her life as she once knew it away . . .forever. She hated everyone, everywhere and only once did she ever trust one person enough to confide in them . . .but then she realized that was also to good to be true.

It had been a warm sea night, the air was salty and humid and very uncomfortable; the kind of nights when ships where attacked by surprise. Ellie looked out at sea with a deep gazing look across her face; she was startled to here her captains voice. "Eh, Ellie, wouldn't think to see you up this late?" she asked half questioningly. "Aye, most nights you wouldn't Captain . . .I just got to thinking whats going to happen after I'm finished with this life, can I leave it, where will I go, who can I trust, who can I look to when I need someone . . ." she trailed off in deep thought. There was a long silence and then "you can always find someone to confide in . . .perhaps that crazy captain jack sparrow I introduced you too last week? He's been on our ship since that night and you seem to like to watch him, eh?" "I don't know, It seems I start to trust or believe and I lose it and there's no turning back . . ." "Aye, but Ellie your special, you have a gift; you can win whatever battle you want . . .don't ever let yourself slip away from reality though 'cause someone like you could and when they do it takes someone strong willed and as crazy as Jack to bring em back." "what?" Ellie asked confused. "Lets just say I know jack and know you and know reality as well as the other side . . .you don't want to lose something that could be yours and let it slip away along with your mind; minds are fragile and if they break usually the best of people break too . . .i don't think you could of got past that time in life if you hadn't come to our ship in time . . .you see?" "Aye . . .i just don't think I believe anything can be real or the way it use to be or anything could ever be real for me like it use to be . . ." "But trust me you can win battles and all you have to do is stay with reality; I know sometimes you just seem to slip into a whole different world and if you do you may regret it for long time . . .if you can see what I'm sayin' you may be able to save yourself and your life as the way you had wanted it to be." "I guess I understand, I'll be sure to take that into consideration captain; you always seem to help." Ellie smiled faintly and turned back to sea as she heard her captain walk off into the hull of the ship. /Jack? This is so crazy me losing my mind; being a pirate and I don't even know why anymore!/ she took a few steps back and then heard an enormously huge cannon firing noise from not far off . . . / oh great!/ she thought and ran backwards as the ship shook with great force. With in minutes the crew was on deck ready to fight, they were under attack by the Black Pearl! /wait that was jack's ship, of course he hadn't been on it in many years since Barbossa had taken it. /I'm doin' this for you jack, you better not let me down when I need you! . . . I think . . ./ she thought with great hope and fear. She turned and saw the horrible things she would never want to see again . . .
