Chapter 2

Help

Jupiter mostly kept to herself while walking down the filthy streets of Tortuga.She wanted to be in the pub (bar whatever) with Jack but he seemed uneasy and she didnt want to annoy him. Jupiter found a small crate and sat on it in the middle of the street. She was really tired and forgot which direction the bar was. She wasent waiting for someone to find her, she just wanted to rest. People walked past her giving her curious glances and some of them looked straight at her face. She did look quite comical sitting in the middle of a busy street. A man walked past and smiled at her with a toothless grin. 'Hmm.' She watched him walk past. 'I swear I have seen him before.' She thought this again as he walked past. 'Maybe he is lost.' She thought. Then he walked past and he had three men with him, he didnt stop but he pointed her out to his friends. 'Maybe I should find Jack.' She got up and turned to the direction she remembered the came from. A strong hand grabbed her hood, choking her. 'Where do ye think yur goin?' She turned around and met the man and his friends. They had chains and guns, they didnt look friendly. 'FUCK YOU, LET ME GO YOU FREAK!' The men laughed at her as the one grasping her hood pulled her closer. 'Such a dirty mouth for such a pretty lady.' She didnt cry, she didnt scream, she didnt look helpless, she just stood there. She didnt know if anyone would help and she wasent sure that tonight she would lose some of her innocence she just stood there. She closed her eyes as one of the men brought up a gun, she could feel it pressed against her head. She could hear people yelling but the yelling wasent yelling of distress...just fighting. 'I knew I shouldnt have come to Tortuga.' She thought. 'Bad things always happen here.' Everything happened so fast. Jupiter was thrown to the ground and she heard a gunshot, she wouldnt allow herself to open her eyes. She heard muffles yells and then everything went a strange quiet. It was dead silence and when that happenes you know theres trouble. She opened her eyes and looked upon a pile of dead bodies, most of the bodies consisted of the men who tried to harm her. She also saw Jack laying beside her, out of breath. She turned to him and gasped. 'You came for me.' Jack looked up and sighed. 'Of course I did luv, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow!' He held out his hand to her and they both went to the Pearl for a feast with the crew.
