Chapter 15 (technically)

The Black Pearl landed in Port Royal about a week later. Th rest of the crew stayed onboard as Aria,

Samuel, and Jack went to the Turner's. They had walked about three blocks when a cry rang through the

street.

"Pirates!" Suddenly the street was swarming with redcoats. Jack grabbed Samuel and Aria and pushed them

into a side alley. They followed him through the side streets for what seemed like ages. He began to slow

when they came to a dead end. They had lost the soldiers about a mile back, but it still wasn't safe. The only

means of escape they would have was through a door at the end of the alley. The only problem was, they d

idn't know what was on the other side of the door. But Jack apparently did. He opened the door silently and

all three of them slipped inside. Samuel instantly knew where he was. Jack had led them to the servants

entrance of his own house!

"Jack? Is this safe? I mean won't the Commodore expect us to be here?" He whispered, as they crept through

the empty hallway.

"He still thinks we're in some alley south of 'ere, don' worry." He replied as they reached the kitchen.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"Uh? Father?" said Aria looking at Jack with wide eyes.

"Quick! The cupboard!" He said urgently, pointing at the cupboard on the other side of the room.

"What about you?!" said Samuel.

"Don' worry about me I'll get in the broom closet! Now go!" he cried, as the Commodore's voice drifted from

the hallway. Upon opening the cupboard, Samuel and Aria realized that they couldn't both fit in side-by-

side.

"-I'm sorry Elisabeth. I want to believe you, but you have been involved with Jack Sparrow before, and the

Navy sees fit that your house be searched." Came the Commodore's voice, growing louder as he

approached. Aria pushed Samuel into the cupboard, and, sitting on his lap, closed the cupboard. They sat

listening to the sound of soldier's boots on the stone floors. Suddenly, Aria felt Samuel's hand traveling up

her thigh. She turned her head to see him sitting there with a look of pure amusement on his face. She

decided to play along. She coyly laid her arms around his neck as she kissed him on the lips. She deepened

the kiss, while sliding her hands into his shirt. Samuel began to rub her thigh where his hand had been as his

other hand traveled up her back. He removed his hand from her thigh and began untying her dress. She

moved her hands down his chest and started to remove his shirt, but was interrupted when the cupboard

doors were opened, by none other than the Commodore himself.

"Samuel? What are you doing in here?" he said looking a bit red in the face.

"What does it look like I'm doing Commodore?" he said hugging Aria to him. He helped Aria stand up, then

got up himself, fixing his garments. The Commodore stared at Aria.

"Do I know you from somewhere?" He said to Aria, his eyes narrowing (Aria has Jack's eyes, if I didn't

already mention that).

"Sir, I've never met you in my life!" she said truthfully.

"Well men! Sparrow is obviously not on the premises, so let us depart!" he barked, as turned around sharply

and walked out of the kitchen. Samuel and Aria stood there until they heard the front door slam shut, at

which time Jack came tumbling out of the broom closet.

"A fella can hardly get a breath in there!" he said gasping. He looked at Aria and Samuel who both looked

extremely flustered.

"What makes me think ya were doin' more then jus' hidin' in that there cupboard?" He said smiling evilly.

Just then Elizabeth came into the kitchen.

"Samuel!" she cried, launching herself into his arms.

"Mum!" He said, as they embraced. They let go and Samuel walked over to Aria.

"Mum, I'd like ya ta meet Aria Sparrow, Jack's daughter." He said snaking an arm around her waist. Elizabeth

frowned at his speech, and then what he had just said began to register.

"Does that mean... is Jack here?" she replied. Jack tapped her on the shoulder, making her spin around and

hug him.

"Jack! How good to see you again!" she cried. She then turned to Aria.

"Aria- very pleased to be meeting you! Jack never told us he had a daughter." She said, glancing at Jack.

"Jack, you are very lucky the Commodore didn't catch you all!" she said pointing a finger at him. She then

added,

"I suspect your Father will be home soon. He usually doesn't come home until five, but because of the

circumstances, he'll probably be here any minute." Aria and Samuel exchanged glances as Elizabeth led the

three of them to the study.
