It was almost mid-night in Port Royal. Most of it's citizens were in bed, all were a sleep except for two girls. Christie and Melissa laid on their beds talking, they both were sent to bed about three hours ago. It had been an eventful day, introductions, duels; they both were pretty tired but still not ready for bead.

Christie stared at the balcony deep in thought, as Melissa lounged peacefully on her bed. Melissa looked at Christie, thoughts wondering through her head.

"You never told me why you and your family came to our house," Melissa asked finally getting the question out, but not want to pry. Christie looked back at Melissa and sighed.

"I do have a mum, an' she's no whore from Tortuga if that's what yer thinkin'." Christie stated boldly, as Melissa just stared at her for the use of the language. Christie continued while she used her hands to help tell her story. "My mum is Anamaria Sparrow, first mate an' wife to me dad. It happened one day when the crew, me dad, an' me were looting a port. All o' us went off into the town while me mum an' Danny stayed on the Pearl. Ye see, me parents have a rule that me an' Danny had ta be 12 before we could go with me dad an' mum looting ports. Danny's ten an' he's not old enough yet, so me mum had to stay behind. While me dad an' me were looting the town, Captain Barbosa an' the Grave revenge came to the Black Pearl, took me mum, and left Danny unconscious laying there before the mast. When we all returned and found out what happened me dad came here to seek yer help, an here we are." Melissa stood there in awe at all the things that had happened to Christie.

"That's awful," Melissa said in reply to the story. Christie just laid back down on her bed.
"What ye gonna do, were pirates this stuff happens. But when I find that son o' a bitch, he's gonna wish he stayed in hell..." Christie fumed as she though about the situation then she saw Melissa shocked face. "Oh, sorry the language. I can't help it, 'm a pirate," Christie pleaded showing a small smile. Melissa by now recovered from her shock after a few hours with Christie she was pretty used to the cussing. Then Melissa got out of bed to go get something from her dresser when she stubbed her toe on the bed post.
"Damn it," Melissa cursed from the pain, Christie at first was taken back by Melissa's words not expecting her to swear, then Christie grinned slyly.
"Will make a pirate out o' ye yet," Christie answered Melissa, who retuned Christie's grin. "An' ye think that's bad well, now me dad plans to leave me an Danny wit' the governor. An' if 'e thinks that he can keep that from us, 'e has another thing commin'.," Christie shouted loud but not loud enough for anyone outside the room to hear. Melissa's expression was full of confusion.
"Wait, why would your dad leave you with my Grand Father, and not with my family," Melissa asked the puzzle still not put together.
"Cause yer parents are leavin' ye too," Christie answered still enraged.
"How do you know, my parents would have told me," Melissa argued not wanting to believe Christie.

"I over heard me dad an' them talkin'," Christie answered boldly; Melissa glared accusingly at her while wearing a small smile. "I'm a pirate what do ye expect. Me actin' like the queen, what's 'er name, Lizzy 'er somethin'," Christie defended, while Melissa laughed at her thought of Christie being the queen.
"So, what are we going to do about are parents plans to leave us here," Melissa asked getting back on subject. Christie furrowed her eyebrows, and rested her head in her hands trying to think.
"We can follow are parents when they leave," Christie suggested, stating the first thing that came to mind.
"No that wouldn't work are parents would be sailing away before we are on the boat," Melissa corrected; Christie frowned when she thought of this idea. "Maybe we could steal the boat and go after your mother ourselves," Melissa stated her own idea.
"First, we'd be out numbered an' killed when we found Barbosa. Second, we don't steal ships we commandeer them, nautical term. An' third, we don't know how to get ta the dreaded Isle de Meurta," Christie responded to the suggestion, and then her expression turned into a mischievous toothy grin. Melissa looked at her knowing there was an idea to be heard. "I got it! We can stow away on the Pearl, an' reveal ourselves when we're to far ta go back," Christie spat out excitedly her eyes glimmered with excitement.
"But how will we get to the ship, if are parents drop us off at my grandfather's house. They will be ahead of us," Melissa said looking at Christie who still was smiling.
"Me dad won't go back to the Pearl till evening when the crew will return, and I'm guessin' that are parents will drop us off before night. So, we'll sneak out o' ye Grand Father's house an' stow away on the Pearl, savvy," Christie responded proud of her plan. Now Melissa's eyes were filled with excitement.
"But what if they catch us before we're far enough away from Port Royal," Melissa asked wanting this plan to be full proof.
"Let me take care o' are leverage," Christie grinned slyly thinking of what she had to do. With the plan all set the two went to bed to rest up for the day ahead.

Melissa woke up around nine o'clock; Christie was still sleeping in bed. Melissa slowly approached the sleeping figure that was Christie. Melissa was about to tap her on the shoulder, when Christie shot up with a loaded pistol aimed at Melissa. Melissa jumped back startled at Christie sudden movement. Christie quickly realized who it was and put it away.
"Sorry, bad experience involving me sleeping, me brother, an' 'im firing a gun," Christie stated while getting out of her bead and stretching. Melissa was dressed in a plain dress made out of cotton, Christie didn't have a change of closes she only had one outfit that she always wore. Christie strapped on her belt carrying her sword, then the two headed downstairs. They were greeted at the bottom of the stairs by hearty voices coming from the dining room. As Christie and Melissa entered the dining room their parents greeted them.
"Mornin' luv. How'd we sleep," Jack asked from his spot at the table grinning as his half-a-sleep daughter just sat down and smiled quickly at him. Melissa was in a better mood.
"How was your night, Melissa," Elizabeth asked trying to engage in conversation.
"Good, and how was yours mom," Melissa answered in a wide-awake tone. Every one was seated at the table now eating breakfast, while talking to one another. After a few minutes Christie was awake and talking. Then when everyone was done, they sat back and relaxed for a few minutes.
"I should head down to the armory," Will said not really wanting to go.
"So should I," Westly chimed in. Will then got up and started towards the door followed by Westly.
"Ah Westly, why don't you come down to the harbor with us," Melissa asked quickly trying not sound to anxious not let him go, but she didn't want to reveal their plans in front of her parents, Jack, and Gibbs.
"Why," Westly asked confused about why his sister would want him to accompany her and Christie. Christie stepped in.
"Cause I asked Melissa if 'he would show me aroun' the harbor, an' 'he said that ye know it better an' therefore would do the job better," Christie answered as Melissa mouth the word * Thank You*, while Westly looked proud thinking about the compliment.
"Well I do spend more time there, ok I will go with you," Westly answered as Christie and Melissa were overjoyed that it worked but were keeping it inside them selves.
"Mother can we go too," Jake and Nathan asked. While Danny looked at Jack who nodded at his son.
"I suppose you may, but be home for lunch," Elizabeth responded sporting a little smile. Then all the kids exited the Turner House and started walking down the street. The adults sat back down at the table seeing that the kids were gone.
"So is everything set for tonight," Will asked hoping the answer was yes.
"Aye, the crew will be back an' ready. An' I hope they got a lot o' rum, cause I'm gonna need it for after me kids find out 'bout are little plan," Jack responded his smile turning in to a painful expression imagining what his kids would do. Then he turned to Elizabeth. "Is yer father willin'," Jack asked being hopeful.
"Yes, I told him about Danny, and Christie. I told him that they were are best friend's kids, who's parents were coming with us. He doesn't know about them being yours our about them being pirates," Elizabeth said smiling as Jack nodded his head at her with his hands in a prayer like form.

The group of Turners and Sparrows were now half way to the harbor. Then when they walked by an alleyway Melissa and Christie led them into it.
"I thought we were going to the harbor," Westly asked once again confused, Jake, Nathan, and Danny just looked at the scene before them dumb founded.
"No that was just to get you to come with us away from Mom and Dad. We need to talk about something important," Melissa, corrected as Westly frowned with the feeling of being used; the worst part was that the compliment wasn't true.
"What's so important," Danny asked curious.
"First did ye tell them 'bout why we're 'ere," Christie asked pointing to Jake, Nathan, and Westly. Danny shook his head as a sign of 'no'. Christie sighed heavily, thinking about the time that they would lose, and then retold the story. When the story was finished they continued.
"An' worse are parents are goin' to leave us 'ere with the governor tonight," Christie stated exasperated. The three receiving the news were shocked; the first to recover was Danny.
"That traitor, Dad can't do that ta us," Danny yelled enraged by the plan to deny him of an adventure.
"Well what are we going to do," Nathan asked not wanting to be left out on what would be his first adventure.
"We 'ave a plan, but we need yer help," Christie stated grinning. So they all went over the plan and soon every thing was set, all they had to do was return to the Turner's House.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The door of the Turner's House opened and in walked Christie and Melissa, followed by Nathan and Danny, then Westly and Jake. "Were in here, children," Will called from the living room. They all new what awaited, but neither of the two groups showing it to the other. The group of kids all filed in to the living room and took a seat in front of the adults. "Now children, Cap'n Sparrow has come to Port Royal asking the help of your mother and I. This means we will have to go out to sea; there it is too dangerous for you so we will leave you in the good care of your Grand Father Swann," Will explained to his children while looking at their expressions. The Turner kids looked completely shocked and disappointed, they were practicing their faces on the way back to the house. As for the Sparrow kids they looked normal, but soon would look if not more than disappointed, very perturbed once they heard the news that they waited to hear. They also were practicing. "I 'ave decided that ye too, will also stay wit' Governor Swann," Jack told Christie and Danny, frowning when he got to the "Governor Swann" part. "What, ye can't do that ta us. We 'ave every right ta go wit' ye, ta rescue are mother," Christie yelled standing up making it very clear on the 'are mother' part, while Danny glared. "I'm the Captain, an' yer father. An' what I say goes," Jack roared back stressing the 'yer father', as Christie stood her ground. "Traitor," Danny growled lowly, while he shot daggers at Jack. Jack was almost about to loose it. "That's enough, this is finished," Jack growled back, Christie looked him strait in the eye. Danny on the other hand had some trouble. Christie and Melissa stormed out of the room, soon followed by the boys. Jack was still kind of mad but was cooling off as all the adults could feel the emotions that ran through the room. "At least she didn't have her pistol," Gibbs told Jack trying to lighten his mood. Jack just looked at him with a small grin.

Once Melissa and Christie were both in her room, she slammed the door for the effect. Then their two faces turned to smiles. "Well that went well," Christie said displaying a grin that her father wore a lot. "Yeah, but weren't you a little harsh," Melissa asked with some pity in her voice. "I'm a pirate, he expected me to go down fighting. If I didn't he would have caught on, an' besides I didn't mean it," Christie explained as Melissa's expression turned back to a smile. "Now what do we do," Melissa asked wondering when phase 2 of the plan would commence. "We wait fer the opportune moment," Christie replied devilishly with a toothy grin. ~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%%~%~%~%~%~%~%~ %~%~ So how is it? Please review; make my day!
