Okay, I would make some excuse for not updating, except none of them do any
justice. I'm just lazy and I forget a lot to sit down a type. Anyways,
thanks to all my reviewers, it means a lot and you each have separate thank
yous at the bottom. Read first though!
Summary: Jack met someone, in those ten years without the Pearl that became so obsessed with Jack she would kill anyone in her path to get to him. Now, 9 years later, she's back to claim him, except there's a problem, Jack's with Ana now. And she's not too happy about that.
Before I start, let me remind you I don't own any of the characters, settings, and so on in Pirates of the Caribbean, except for the ones I make up...sooner or later. I am not getting paid for this either, it is pure pleasure.
Enjoy!
A Deadly Obsession -Chapter 2- What's Wrong With You?
Early the next morning, Jack stood at the helm studying the clear blue sky and calm waves. He didn't hear Ana creep up behind him, a mischievous grin placed on her face.
"Ahh!" Ana screamed in his ear, impressed with herself that she'd snuck up on Jack without so much as a backwards glance from him.
The pirate captain didn't jump, nor did he seem to move in the slightest. In fact Jack's attention still seemed to be caught up in the cloudless sky.
Ana frowned, "Jack?"
He still stood frozen in his position, with one hand on the wheel.
"JACK!"
"Whazzat!" The pirate whirled around hands flying to his cutlass.
Ana ducked as his elbow came out of nowhere barely missing her head. "I's me, ya bloody stupid idiot!" She shouted, bringing her hands up in an 'I surrender' position.
"Oh, 'ello luv." Jack seemingly unfazed, turned back to original spot, taking up the wheel once more.
Amazed at his weird behavior, Ana lowered her hands and walked around in front of Jack's vision. "Wha' the bloody 'ell, is wrong wit ya?"
"Sorry, luv," Jack started sincerely, "didn't mean to scare ya."
Ana snorted and placed her hands on her hips, she loved this man, but her pride still got the best of her sometimes, "Oh don't flatter yerself Jack. Ya didn't scare me. Now what is goin' on?"
Again, Jack ignored her and pulled at a few loose strands of hair back that had been tickling his forehead.
"Answer me, right now Jack Sparrow!" Ana grabbed his shirt and pulled him down to her eye level.
"Captain." He mumbled breaking the staring contest with her. As Jack pulled out of her grip and stumbled down the steps to the lower deck where he shouted orders to the crew and told Gibbs to take the helm for a bit.
Anamaria followed him and almost fell over in shock when he reached down and tightened one of the ropes a lazy crewman must have forgotten. Never, never had she seen Captain of the Black Pearl not order another of the crew to do the duty rather than do it himself. Something was most definitely wrong with him.
"Are ye drunk?" Ana asked though she already knew the answer. Jack might have stumbled around like a drunkard, but when she had seen his eyes they were clear brown orbs, proving he wasn't drunk. However she had no better question than that one.
For the first time all morning, Jack's expression changed into a look of confusion. "What? No."
"Then 'ow do ya explain that?"
"S'plain what?"
"That!" She pointed a dark finger at the place where Jack had squatted not even a minute ago.
"Was loose, and there's a storm comin'."
Ana's eyes shot up to the blank sky then back to Jack's even blanker face. "Arghh!" She yelled frustrated, throwing her hands up and stalking below deck.
Jack watched her go and sighed, hating the feeling of playing dumb with her. But now was not a good time to tell her about his memory of Devyn, with a storm blowing their way. And as if hearing him, the wind picked up and out in the far east a dark cloud grew catching the horizon.
LATER THAT DAY
"Hold fast on the yardarm, lads!" Jack shouted through the sheets of rain to his crew desperately clinging on for dear life. "Make yer way down one by one!"
The men slowly made their decent to the ships deck almost being washed away as another giant wave crashed broadside tumbling the Pearl around.
Jack squinted, as he made out Gibbs's bulky body stumbling his way. Searching once again for Anamaria, he saw her shape helping the men, who had just climbed off the rigging, below deck. Then without warning, Ana's figure placed a hand and foot on the rigging and she heaved herself up.
Jack went to shout out to her but he felt a hand on his shoulder and Gibbs spun him around away from the wheel and Ana. "Cap'n, we need to drop canvas!" Gibbs sputtered in his face.
Shaking his head, Jack yelled back, "Take the wheel Mister Gibbs, and keep 'er afloat!" And with those words, he heedlessly made his way towards the main mast and rigging that Ana had now halfway climbed up.
Knowing that his words would most likely be caught in the wind if he shouted up at her, Jack followed her expertly onto the rigging. Catching up to her, he smacked her leg to get her attention. Ana swung around, still clinging to the ropes so hard her hands started to blister in the cold wind.
"Get down, ya crazy woman!" Jack felt odd calling someone else crazy instead of himself.
Instead of screaming back at him Ana moved over leaving enough room for him to climb up beside her, then she pointed a few feet to her right.
Now that Jack was higher he could see Carter, one of his hardest working men caught up in the main sail's ropes. He also appeared to be unconscious and was hanging rather dangerously over the edge. The ropes holding him were the only things keeping Carter up, and they were strained from his weight and could snap at any time, leaving a far way to fall to the solid deck.
Jack turned back to Ana and took one hand off the rigging, pointing downwards he commanded her to climb down to the deck. "I'll get 'im, luv."
Anamaria smiled at the irony of the situation and nodded, figuring Jack could handle it better than she would. But before she descended she leaned over and whispered loudly into his ear, "I could 'ave done it meself, but I figure ya want the glory." She smirked then made her way down carefully.
Jack didn't watch her back down, instead he stood clinging, mouth open, to the rigging. 'You've 'eard those words before matey, but where?' Jack contemplated with his inner voice searching for the answer.
Then it hit him like a wave of memories, and lightning flashed in the dark sky and the location before him changed as he faded into cold gray eyes.
Flashback
Jack felt helpless for once in his life as he felt Devyn smirking behind him her hand molded to the outside of his, his finger lightly touching the trigger of the pistol they held in their hands.
"Devyn, let go luv... please?" Jack cocked his head towards her, which was leaning over his shoulder. However her eyes didn't move from her target, who lay stripped naked on the bed.
Jack tried not to remember what happened with Natalie only a week before, "I wasn't doin' anything wit 'er, Devyn. Ya gotta believe me!"
"She's naked, Jack!" Devyn's hissed in his ear.
"She wasn't in 'ere before. I left for a second tah find ye, and when we came back, 'ere she was." Jack tried to tell her the truth. "She musta' got lost and fallen asleep."
"You expect me to believe tha'!" She shouted, and Jack felt her finger, covering his over the trigger, tighten. Calming herself, Devyn leaned in close and kissed Jack behind the neck softly before whispering seductively, "I could 'ave done it meself, but I figure ya want the glory."
Jack squeezed his eyes together as tight as possible and felt the gun go off in his hand, then as soon as Devyn loosened her grip, it dropped to the floor and Jack heard her laughter behind him.
End Flashback
"JACK!"
Jack Sparrow's eyes snapped open to the present in time to see a monstrous wave hit the Pearl with such force it cracked the sail that held Carter attached. The sail's thick wood groaned in Jack's ear, making him sure he would go deaf, then it split completely and was swept out into the angry ocean water, taking Carter with it.
"No! Damn it!" Jack screamed as the wood disappeared between the waves. He didn't have much time to mourn Carter before he felt one of his hands fall loose of the rigging. Jack reached to grab for it again, but his foot slipped and all of a sunned he was falling towards the deck, smacking his forehead on the main mast.
Seconds before he should have hit the deck, Jack felt a jerk on his foot twisting it so hard he wanted to cry out. But before he got the chance to, he blacked out while hearing Anamaria's tortured scream resound in his ears... or was it Devyn's?
