A/n: Thank you so much Piratechick, Jeyke . . . sorry about it being to
lovey dovey for you lol there will be action just wait . . . Oh and Will
Turner will be in this chapter and maybe a few others, although he will be
leaving (Liz is also in this too)
Ps. Jeyke, do u really live in the mountains, I love the mountains and our family has a home in lake Tahoe . . .I guess it has something to do with the snows and the trees, I have always loved the forest, well im weird and I just thought I'd say that, hehe.
It was around 5am and Ellie could just see the peeks of sun rays beyond the horizon. She lay there exhausted from thinking so hard for the past days. She had made a decision she would hopefully not regret in the end . . . she was ready to leave, to be free again, to live again. She had dressed and sat there since 3 that morning planning out ways to sneak past the clinic's supervisors. She had decided to leave at 5:30 or as close to it as she possibly could. She crept down the squeaky hall way, then the stairs; where she met her trouble.
Right at the bottom of the steps was the front desk, ran 24 hours a day. She knew she would have to fake being a clinic clerk top get by; she has snuck into the broom closet and stole a pair of white paints and a white vest, along with a brown hat to cover up her face. She came down the steps at a normal pace, acting casual as she did so. To her releif there was nobody at the desk at the moment and shecould get away clean. But her luck was not on her side, she had forgotten the door has chime of bells at the top corner; therefore alerting the clinic's officials.
"Sir? My I help you?" the lady in front of her questioned.
"No, I was just taking a step outside, for some fresh air I mean . . ." said Ellie in a semi manly voice.
"May I ask what shift your on right now?"
"I believe it's the graveyard shift I'm working, but there are still 2 nurses upstairs." She said as hopeful as she could.
"Ah, mary and francis are still up then?" Asked the lady before her.
"Yes, Last time I checked . . ." Ellie now was halfway out the door praying the lady had bought her lies.
"Very well, take your break . . ."
Ellie closed the door and breathed out heavily; she had been holding her breath the whole time. She walked mildly in pace to the docks looking for a place to hide till she spotted Jack; Heavens only knew what ship he might be on, she wasn't even sure if he had his precious pearl back. She sat there, now worring if she would be noticed gone long on her break at the clinic or as the patient even. 'God what if they see I'm not in my bed and realize my fake employee never returned . . . they could easily connect the dots I'm sure . . .' she was squirming behind some crates when she saw someone move closer in on her. She was about to say step away, but realization dawned on her she had no weapons . . .yet any way, to fight with. So she held her ground silent and still until she heard a voice calling "Ellie? Ellie is that ye behind those crates?" said an almost unbelieving voice.
Ellie knew that voice! It had to have been Jack's; there is no one who could pull of a voice like his, ever. She suddenly had a strong urge to talk pirate like again as she stood up . . . "Aye, 'tis! . . . Jack,"
"Ellie, ye decided to join me then eh?" he said excitedly.
"Looks like it don it? . . . Perhaps I have, what's in it fer me if I join ye?"
"Ye can be at sea again . . . and be free," he tried on her, he noticed it must have worked.
"Sounds good te me," she said now smiling.
"So ye'll come with me then, eh?"
"Course I will, but we better get a move on before they see I'm gone . . ." she remarked looking over her shoulder at the clinic's sign. So they did, Jack took her hand and pulled her down the docks till they stopped at his boat /the black Pearl/ read across her finished side. So he did have her back, that's was good to see. It was now light out and morning had taken over the small port, "Jack can we go now . . . If they see I'm gone they could take me into a mental facility, I swear it's a jail, that's what it is!" "But your not insane love, you're just as normal as me." She frowned at him; he was anything but normal to her. "Well if they find me gone the navy is sure to get involved so get a move on with leavin' won't ye!" she said hurriedly seeing the navy ships about now. "we're goin' just hold yer horses!"
So he ordered his crew to get on with it and introduced Ana Maria to Ellie the second he saw her, and then Gibbs of course . . . "so these are your friends then Jack?" Ellie asked him. "You could say that . . .they be me crew too, darn scallywags they are." Ellie laughed at his remarks. "what you think its funny I can have a woman as a friend, eh?" "No," she said holding in her laughter at his facial expression. "Then what?!" "Nothing . . ." he looked at her oddly and smirked as he turned away. She had noticed another lady about the ship and thought it odd, she didn't seem to be the 'pirtate type' to Ellie; she was wearing a gown and had her hair loosely in a bun, but still it was tidy . . . "Jack? Who is that, the lady in the gown and all," "Oh that's just me friend Will's wife, 'er names Elizabeth, ye can call 'er Liz though." "Oh," said Ellie kind of surprised. "She normal, don fret, eh?" "Right," but that's when she noticed there was the Navy about and he was soming up on their tale . . . "er . . .did ye know the nay=vy is followin' us?" "Damn Navy . . .We can out run em though, or we should be able to," "Should, thought the pearl was the fastest ship around these parts?" "It is but I might stop just te get a good fight out em," "No don't, I haven't fought in like 10 years Jack and the Navy has probably been alerted that I'm out and on a ship with you, there not stupid you know and If you have to fight them it could get bloody if they truly want something!" "Have you not heard, I'm unbeatable to the Navy and always will be . . ." "Don be so sure of yerself Jack Sparrow!" "Captain . . ." She saw the ship approaching rapidly and took a run for the row boats, she decided to hide under the draping.
The Navy had stopped the Black pearl and Jack was ready to fight, even if it was just a game to him, he didn't kill for fun, he just needed a lil' fun and sword fightin' all ways has been his advantage in life . . . Aye Lieutenant?" "Have you by chance seen a woman about 5 feet with brown hair in white pants, a vest and a brown hat?" "No I haven't," "do we have permission to board?" 'why do they even bother to ask if they are gona board anyways?' "I guess you bloody well do, since ye where gona board anyway, Navy always does . . ." "Then we shall come aboard," and so they did.
"Sir, I'm the Commodore of this port's navy and I demand to know who is aboard your ship, crew or not," Said the tall this man before Jack.
Jack only smiled, "well there be Ana Maria, Gibbs, Cotton, Shiller, Monsco, Ross, a few more crew . . .uhh, I'm not sure who's missin' at the moment and there is Will and Liz Turner . . .Feel free to search around if ye need."
"You forget your crew's names . . .that's pathetic . . .perhaps you're not as intelligent as you come across?," he smirked, being sarcastic.
"Haha, for your information I don't ferget there names, they are just not around so I'm not sure who is missin'."
"Well with your offer to search this vessel we shall . . ." they stopped at a door near the far side of the bow leading down to a hallway.
"Is this to the hold of the ship and the cabins, Captain . . ." he wasn't sure what the captain of the pearl's name was and so jack told him . . .
"Tow Wellings at your service." Jack said happily.
"Well, my I have a look in your cabin Captain Wellings?"
"Aye, if it'll get ye off me bloody ship,"
"It will indeed, just a look see and we shall leave you to your sailing."
"Then get on with!" Jack yelled, he was hoping to get a little game of sword fighting going on but, they seemed un interested in any fighting, 'strange, this navy is' Jack thought silently to himself.
The Navy officers entered Jack's cabin and to their surprise the cabin was as normal as any other sailors. They knew this man was most likely a pirate and they should arrest him immediately but, there was no evidence of it in his cabin; only in his clothing. Jack stood in the doorway smirking as he saw the Commodore frown slightly,
"Anything Commodore?" asked jack in his prying way.
"No, surprisingly enough, we had much information pointing at you for the disappearance of Ellie hones for the clinic early this day and a few lootings as well but, we have concluded you have nothing for us to arrest you under and so you are free, sadly." The man had a very displeased look upon his rounded face; Jack could have sworn it was getting redder every second he looked at him.
"well if that's all you'll be needin' to do I would like ye to leave,"
"I'm sorry Captain Wellings but, I'm not leaving a /pirate/ to stay on water or land a /free/ man, there for I'm not leaving with out a fight,"
"If it's a fight ye want, it's a fight ye'll get . . ." at that moment Jack drew his sword and purposed,
"We have a fair fight, one on one, on deck with my crew and your navy officers at the ready if anything shall go wrong eh?"
"Deal." was the only thing the Commodore said.
Will was told to stay out of this fight, Jack knowing how much he wanted to be in it had told him only if it were necessary for him to step in, then he was permitted to. Liz was not the person for such fights but, she had grown close to Jack over the years and knew he was a good man; he had after all saved her life and was not your average pirate by a long shot. Will was his friend, though much younger, they got along great. Will had never in his life dreamed of being a pirate, but after Jack had asked him he had nothing to loose considering he and Elizabeth had lost their baby girl at the young age of two after her high fever in the winter of 1778, just 3 years ago. Elizabeth knew she would love being on ships again and she did have Ana of course, although they never use to get along before, they had come to know each other like sisters.
Jack stood facing The Commodore a smug expression on his face, the Commodore stared intently at Jack; neither was willing to make the first move. Ellie all the while being under the draping of a row boat as /not/ going to sit back and watch such a thing go on. She climbed from the boat being careful not to be seen by anyone of the navy at this point. Suddenly, Ellie was grabbed from behind and muffled. Jack turned his head slightly to see what the strange noise was and when he saw Ellie in the grasps of a young navy man he took charge and swung his sword at the commodore's head.
"I found her Commodore!" yelled the young man holding tightly to Ellie's arms as she kicked in protest. Will immediately felt the need to help the poor girl and pulled his sword out at once, he was fighting his way through the navy's men when someone shouted from behind him "I know you, you use to be that black smith in Port Royal, Will Turner ain't it?" Will turned to see a man of about 34 staring at him, "Yes, yes I was, what is it to ya?" he asked the man cautiously still wanting to help Ellie. "I'm Gregory Matters, use to work fer the navy down there, decided to come back to my home port couple years back." "Ah, yes I remember ye, ye use to be the lieutenant, eh?" "Yes, yes I was. What are you doing on a pirate ship anyhow?" "I am one, I have been since birth, never knew it though, I better be going if ye'll excuse me." And Will blocked another sword as he made his way to Ellie. All the while the rest of the crew had joined in now, Liz now very frightened for everyone in the middle of this, and she backed away even more.
The Commodore and jack were now in a fierce fight; Jack had nearly had his hand sliced off as his opponent lowered his sword swiftly to his right. The Commodore had great swords man ship and Jack was thoroughly impressed. Jack jumped to his right and grabbed hold of a rope hanging from the second mast; Jack twirled around to meat another one of the commodore's blows. Jack blocked it fairly well and pushed him back a few feet; giving him a few more seconds time to move out of the way. Jack was now face to face with the commodore, except jack had the advantage as he was standing over the poor man. He had failed to block an attack on jack's part and rolled out of the way just in time. He was huddled in a small ball yelling "I surrender!" over and over again. Jack was not one to kill a man for no reason. So he backed away and said "you have a good hand, commodore, I'll give you that. Ye let the lass go and I'll be willing to let all of ye go unharmed, if ye don let her go, it won't be pretty." "Let the girl go Franklin," "But commodore, this girl is insane!" he said unbelieving what he had just heard; let the girl go, never!
"Boy do ye want to get us all killed," asked the commodore shakily. There where no more sounds of clashing swords as every one watched the sight eagerly, even The Navy men were intent to see what was to come now. Liz had found her husband and was holding him tightly, she had become very tense.
"No, but I can not just let this girl go, she is a havoc to this world and should surly be sent to the insane institute," he protested.
Then in chimed Ellie, "I beg your pardon but, I am /not/ insane people, the institute is a jail! And I have just as much of a right to be on these seas as you do."
That was when jack saw from behind Ellie, the young boy was drawing a gun and he was not going to have her shot because of him. Jack began, "If ye are wantin' to hurt 'er try me first! Ye will not get very far, if ye do or if ye don't, it don matter lad."
"I beg your pardon?" ask the boy trying to hide his pistol.
Ellie was now frightened, "There really is no need to shoot me, I'll go if I must," she said nervously exerting words. She felt the pistols cold metal end touch her skin and winced. Elizabeth covered her mouth as she saw the gun next to Ellie's neck be cocked back.
The young boy /was/ going shoot, whether anyone told him to or not. There was a loud boom that filled the air with an utter silence. The young boy lay dead on ground and a terrified Ellie stopped in her tracks, Jack stood there looking deeply into Ellie's eyes. After the sight was clear and Elizabeth could see what had happened she screamed. Will held her shaking body tighter. What Jack had just done made Ellie more scared than Jack had ever seen her, but it had been 10 years and people now said she was insane, maybe this was the type of thing that drove her inside herself; all the killing. He had killed a man to save Ellie's life. Perhaps Ellie didn't want to be saved; this was going to be her way out of leaving with him . . . Ellie's eyes rolled back into her head as she fell to the ground unconscious. The last thing she saw Elizabeth running toward her as she murmured "oh dear . . ." almost to herself.
A/n: I decided to split this chappie into two haves so there's the first half, hoped you liked it! ; ) Remember to review it boost my reasons to write when I know I have people who want to read more of my story.
