As Jessie walked down the darkened roads of Port Royal all she could think about was how much she wished that she could just be true to her pirate instincts and shoot Madeline and her little posse, but no she just had to be a lady. HA! Jessie and lady are not two words that are commonly heard in the same sentence. Tears welled up in her eyes, how many times had she wished that she wasn't a pirate? How many times had she wished that she was just a regular girl like everyone else? It wouldn't be so bed if Darren was there with her, but the way things are going she often finds herself wishing that she were someone else. Someone who wasn't a pirate. Then she walked past a big crowd of people, apparently there was someone in the center of the mob, who was singing.
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
Jessie paused and turned her head to listen.
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
She stood there listening, what was this song? This seemed to be doing a pretty good job describing her feelings. She thought about how girls like Madeline got everything their greedy little hearts desired, while she and her old crew and friends were constantly persecuted against just because they were pirates, and how no seemed to be in too much of a hurry to help them.
It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Jessie sighed. There was a too much going on. She was so busy wondering about the Black Pearl, that she didn't study for tests in school, and didn't learn the proper way to get dressed in those death traps that women thought made them look beautiful. All she wanted was to be back on the Pearl, that was all, but she didn't see how that would happen.
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
That a hero lies in yooooooouuuuu
Jessie sighed, but happily this time. That song had been wonderful and it had given her spirit the boost that it had needed. She turned around to walk off when who should she run into but Madeline.
"AH! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING YOU BLOODY PIRATE!"
Jessie sighed, just when she thought she might be in a good mood for a while….
"Madeline I really don't feel like putting up with your right now so if you don't mind would you move?" said Jessie trying to be as nice as possible, she didn't want to start anything.
"Oh so you're trying to be nice now are you? I didn't know pirates even knew HOW to be nice, I thought all they did was pillage and plunder and kill."
That made Jessie mad, you know what Madeline, I would simply LOVE to hear you say half the things you say to me to my captain and godfather, perhaps you've heard of him? CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW?!"
All of the color drained from Madeline's face. Then she smirked and then the smirk turned into an all out side-splitting laugh. "Jack Sparrow?! You really HAVE lost it Turner! You think that Jack Sparrow is your GODFATHER?!"
"That's right, do you have a problem with that?" asked Jessie getting more than a little annoyed.
Madeline stopped laughing, "You really believe this don't you?"
"And why shouldn't I believe the truth?"
"Turner, if you think that THAT'S the truth I think you'd better lay off the rum."
Suddenly another voice entered their argument, a man's voice it said, "Rum huh? Where's the rum? I know I heard someone say rum!"
"No dad, there's no rum it's just a whiny little bitch giving Jess a hard time."
Jessie looked over and saw the two people who she had been ready to kill to see, Darren and Jack Sparrow. She ran over and gave then both a hug, one so tight they both though she would strangle them to death.
"Loosen up the grip, love. You can't strangle us, that's the gallows's job," joked Jack. Jessie backed off "Sorry but I haven't stopped thinking about two since the day I came to this god-forsaken place…"
then she noticed them both staring at her, "What is it?" Darren was gonna say something but Jack cut him off "my my love, you look just the spitting image of yer mum." Jessie looked down and noticed that it was one of the rare days that she actually let the maids talk her into dressing up. She was actually wearing a corset and a very nice dress, with her hair all fancied up.
"Um thanks, I don't usually dress like this…" she was cut off again but this time by a scream from Madeline. "MY GOD! YOU'RE PIRATES!"
Darren laughed at that, "well aren't you sharp one, how long did it take ye to figure that one out?" "DON'T YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT PIRATE! I'LL HAVE YOU HUNG!"
Jessie laughed out loud at that along with Jack and Darren, and she had to admit it felt good for her to be the one laughing at Madeline for a change. Darren continued, "Love you DO realize that we could just kill you right here and now before you get a chance to tell anyone, don't you?" She paled, this thought obviously had not occurred to her. "She wasn't bothering you now was she Jess?" asked Darren, "Cause if she was I would happily behead her for ye." Jessie laughed, it was so good to have Darren there to stand up for her again. "Well now that you mention it she HAS made my entire life here a royal hell." Darren's hand went to his sword. Madeline saw this and dove to her knees, "Jessie, I'm SO sorry, I I I didn't know, I was just trying to put you down, because of my own insecurities, I'm so sorry PLEASE don't kill me." Well of course Jessie wouldn't kill her, nor would she let Darren, but after 6 years of torture from this girl Jessie wasn't gonna let her off the hook that easily. "I don't know Madeline what have you ever done for me? You're such a brat I think it would be doing the world a great service to just let Darren kill you right now." Madeline got so scared she fainted right on the spot. Jessie, Jack and Darren all looked at each other then burst out laughing. After a few minutes they had clamed a bit and were now going back to the Turner's manor. Jessie held Darren's hand the whole way as they got caught up on old times and were already plotting their next adventure. Could life get any more perfect?! Jessie thought. They continued walking until they arrived and colleted her things, after a few words with her parents Will and Elizabeth decided that they had gotten too accustomed to life on land and wouldn't leave so they said good-bye to their daughter and Jess, Jack and Darren made their way to the Pearl. They climbed aboard and Jessie was greeted by the crew. After about half an hour Jessie went to go find Darren. He was on patrol at the back of the ship. "Hey! Thanks for sticking up for me today" said Jessie. "No problem Jess, I really have missed you." "I've missed you too Darren you have no idea how much I've wanted to be back here, I really feel like I'm home."
"It's good to have you back Jess, real good." Said Darren, then he came a bit closer to her and hugged her, but as he pulled away he didn't fully let go he just held her by the waist looking at her. Then he started to lower his face to hers to kiss her when…
