A/N I am SO sorry it's taken me so long to update, I kind of forgot about
this. Thank you to one of my reviewers (superstarlet) for reviewing and
reminding me about it) okay well I think my originally intended plot might
have changed a tad, but I think I can still pick up where I left off.
And that's when it happened.......
All hell broke loose. The cannons went off, but since the ships were so close together the splintering wood went flying everywhere and damaged the other ship as badly as it did its target. Pirates were swinging on ropes between ships, amid gun fires, shouted curses, flying swords, and jumbled orders.
Darren was the first one on board the other ship. His age gave him a distinct advantage; since he was younger everyone assumed he probably didn't know the blade of the sword from the hilt. This was a fatal mistake. Darren didn't like to kill, but in some situations he was forced to, but mostly he fought his way through, injuring, but trying his hardest to avoid any deadly blood shed.
He worked his way into a relatively safe place where he could think. 'Okay, where would he keep a hostage?' But he was saved any further contemplation by a scream that was too high pitched to have come from a man. He ran in the direction of it to find some pirates trying to enter a room but having a random object thrown whenever they tried.
He walked up "Havin some difficulty there mates?"
"Who the hell are you?"
Neither pirate was armed, for whatever reason, and immediately backed off from the sword that was pointed at them.
"Never you mind who I am, what you should be payin attention to is the fact that I'm armed and you're not. Now I don't want any mess for anyone to clean up so just move away from the door, now."
"Lad I don't think you're in any position to be throwing orders," one pirate said as he advanced on him.
Darren quickly brought his blade up then just as quickly down, cutting the pirate on the arm, deeply. He let out a yell of pain and stumbled backward, "And don't call me "lad"," said Darren as he took a step forward. Both of Barbossa's minions took off at a run and Darren entered the room, only to have to duck a candlestick that was immediately thrown in his direction.
"Hey now, is that any way to treat your rescuer?" Darren mock- admonished.
"DARREN!" Jessie screamed and ran forward and pulled him into a tight hug, "I thought you had left oh Darren, you wouldn't believe the things I heard about Jack. I must speak with him. What's going on? I hear a battle out side. What's happening?"
"Calm down now Jess. Let's handle things one at a time shall we? First off, let's get you out of here." He took her hand and leaned carefully out the door looking the deck up and down to see if it was relatively safe for them to go. There was no one on this side of the ship. They were making their way slowly down the deck to where all the noise was coming when Darren had an idea.
He took off his coat and bandana and put them on Jessie. After smudging her face a bit and hiding her hair at a glance she could have passed for a boy, this was good since they didn't need any attention drawn to them. Then they started to make their way towards the noise again.
They drew their swords and with a quick smile at each other they ran into the middle of it all. They were both highly talented swordsmen(a/n or swordswoman) and compared to Barbossas's crew, who was not only uncoordinated but also didn't plan a single move of their sword and were rather just waving them in front of themselves like a pack of confused monkeys.
Fighting the entire way, Jessie and Darren finally made it to the railing of the ship, just then someone grabbed Jessie's arm and pulled her back.
Turning around Jessie saw Barbossa, just then she realized the Darren's hat had fallen off and her long hair had given her away quite easily.
"Now Miss. Turner, you weren't thinking of leaving us so soon were you? Not polite to just take off without saying good bye is it now?"
Jessie didn't know what to do. But just then Jack slapped Barbossa's arm with the flat side of his sword, making him let go of Jess, then held the sword to his neck.
"You've cause us quite enough of a disturbance, 'avn't ye mate?" Jack stated rather than asked, "How's about you and your little band o' monkeys just back off right now, me crew will be takin our leave, and everyone will be nice and happy, savvy?"
"No Jack, somehow I don't think that'll work out too well. You see yer crew will take yer leave, but young Miss Turner will be remaining with us."
Both crews were watching their captains intently waiting for any move to tell them what they were supposed to do.
"My god daughter will be comin' with me," said Jack.
Barbossa un-sheathed his sword, "Ye seem te be pretty sure of yerself there."
They began circling each other, swords making an "X" between the, their eyes never leaving each other for a moment.
The fight began. No one knew what to do, so everyone just stood and watched, waiting to see the victor of the fight. It went on for a while, Barbossa jabbing, Jack dodging and vise versa, until the sky had changed colors and both were too tiered to continue. Breathing hard they decided to see how talking would work. Both of them being pirates how would kill you just as soon as look at you this wasn't a normal agreement, but they both just simply could not fight any longer. So they sat down on the deck, both crews surrounding them.
"The girl legally and logically belongs to me," stated Jack as if pointing out that the sky was blue.
"Oh yes Jack, and yer really one te be prechin about obaying the laws," Barbossa returned smartly. No one could argue Jack's track record of lawlessness.
"Aright then, the girl is coming with us wheather ye like it or not, what do ye want with her anyway? Women are the worst thing ye can have aboard a ship!" Barbossa's crew looked at each other, they hadn't considered that. They had just gotten rid of the curse, broken out of jail, and discovered their captain was indeed alive. They didn't need the threat of any bad luck. Maybe just this once their captain was wrong... But of course no one had the nerve to argue with their captain, not yet at least.
A/n There we go, I finally updated, im really sorry I forgot about this but yea, here it is. I know it's kinda a lousy ending but im kinda running low on ideas, if you guys have any suggestions toss it into a review or IM me, my scrrenname's in my profile. Thanks for reading, please review!
