Chapter 3: Maiden overboard

Will was on deck as a look out for Tortuga. He felt very honored that Jack made him second in command of the ship. He was starting to follow in Jacks footsteps of living his life on the sea, or he was following his fathers, he didn't know. Will was still upset over Elizabeth's death; he leaned against the railing of the ship and inhaled the scent of the salt sea in the air. Jack came from below deck all jumbled up his hair was every where, his shirt was unbuttoned and his hat was crooked not like the Jack Sparrow Will knew.

"Jack what happened to you, you look like you got in a fight or something" Will asked concerned. Jack just gave a lopsided grin.

"Nay mate, not a fight I got in" Jack smiled. Will was more confused now then ever.

"Then what happened to you?" Will asked again. Jack just rolled his eyes and leaned against the wet railing.

"There is a lass aboard the ship, and she took a bit of liking to me, if you know what I mean" Jack raised his eyebrows up and down to get the point across. Will rolled his eyes and looked out towards the sea again. What he saw surprised him; he saw a maiden floating on a piece of wood.

"Jack! Look! Should we save her?" Will asked. Jack looked over his shoulder to see what Will was talking about, there he saw a maiden floating on a piece of broken wood probably from a ship or something. Jack was having a debate with himself whether he should save the girl or not, Will stared at him with confusion as he saw the inner battle within Jack.

"Oh bloody hell, I'll save her myself" Said Will and jumped into the water. Jack leaned over the railing and yelled towards Will.

"Your neck, not mine mate"

Will swam against the current to the floating plank, just as he was about to reach it a tide came over and swept both Will and the girl underneath the water. Jack was starting to get nervous if his companion would make it or not.

Underneath the Water

Will is swimming hurriedly for the ever sinking girl. He finally grabs her and tries to pull her up the surface, but he realizes he couldn't. [Why did it have to be a heavy girl?] He quickly looked back towards her and saw she was tied to the wood, he cursed at the top of his lungs but all that came out were bubbles, he tried to untie the girl and finally after a few moments he untangled her from the flank and headed towards the surface, half way up Jack jumped and tried to help Will out.

On the ship

Jack was starting to get a little jumpy because it has been so long that they haven't come up for air yet.

"Bloody hell I knew I was going to get wet" Jack took off his hat and his belt that held his gun and dived into the ocean waters.

Normal POV

Jack grabbed one arm of the maiden while Will grabbed the other and they both headed for the surface. As they broke through the water Will gasped for air like he never breathed air before. Celina through the men a rope ladder and they climbed up it with the girl hanging over Will's back. As soon as they came aboard they laid her down gently and tried to see whom she was. Will pushed her long black hair out of the way and saw her beautiful face. He was enchanted by her looks all he could do was stare at her fair complexion. Jack noticed and gave a fake grunt.

"Mate shouldn't you see if she is still alive before you start falling in love wit her?" Jack asked. Will had to admit he had a very good point, he came back from dream land and checked her pulse, it was steady but faint, then the girl coughed up some water and turned to her side.

"Well she's alive then, Chris take her down to your quarters and make sure she gets proper care" Jack said.

"Aye Captain" Celina said and carried the maiden off. Will just stood there confused.

"Why would you put the maiden with Chris won't he try to do stuff to her?" Will asked. Jack rolled his eyes at the young fellow and put his arm around his shoulders.

"Remember earlier of how I was saying there was a lass on board?" Jack asked Will. Will then nodded for him to continue.

"That was her, mate" Jack said. Will nodded slowly and made an o shape with his mouth as they walked off to the living quarters.
