A/N: Nothing belongs to me!
Chapter Four
"Excellent work, Mr. Brown." Just as Jack was hit with the bottle o' rum Commodore and his men came in. "You've assisted in the capture of a dangerous fugitive."
"Just doing my civic duty, sir." When those words were uttered I sorted in attempt to hold back a laugh and Will rolled his eyes.
"Well, I trust you will always remember this as the day that Captain Jack Sparrow almost escaped." Looking down at Jack. "Take him away!" Before leaving Commodore turned to me and Will giving us a look of utter disgust.
"He proposed to Elizabeth..." I said turning to Will. A look of sadness covered his face. It was as plain to see as the sun on a hot Caribbean morn.
"Oh I wish them the best of luck..." He smiled forcefully then changing the subject he added. "Weren't you running away from home?"
"I was but... Then I realized the only thing I could do when I ran away was become a lady of the night or a pirate..."
"And you would mind being a pirate?"
"Not at all... But I have to wait till a pirate ship shows up."
"Oh..."
"So... do you by any chance have enough room for me here?"
"If your father finds out he'll have me hanged for kidnapping." He smiled.
"That is if he even found out that I'm missing..." I grinned.
"I'm more than certain that your father is worried sick about his little girl."
"That's where you are wrong dear William. My father is already worried about his darling baby girl Elizabeth... She almost drowned and was threatened by a furious pirate. You know the Elizabeth I should be more like... The fragile one that doesn't run around sword fighting with the blacksmith's apprentice."
"I would hate it if you were more like a lady." He smiled. "'Cause if you were a lady who would the Blacksmith's poor apprentice sword fight with?"
"Someone who doesn't loose in two minutes?" I suggested.
"You will learn soon enough... Now if you don't mind I have some work to do."
With in five minutes the room grew to be more than a hundred degrees. It was unbearable but I chose to stay, so I wasn't going to complain. It wasn't until night fall that will stopped to rest.
"I think you have the hardest job in Port Royal," I said, "You have to make all these swords and put up with me..." I smiled, "Not many can do that..."
Smiling Will said, "I still can't believe you're the oldest... You act so much younger than Elizabeth."
I smiled and took a seat on a table, I was about to say something but before I knew it, a ghastly wind hit followed by the sudden booming of a cannon.
"Pirates..." I said under my breath. Will takes up a sword, a hatchet, and a knife. I was about to take a sword but Will stopped me by putting his hand on my shoulder and shaking his head. "But..." I was about to start arguing but he had already left. I feared a pirate coming in so I picked up a sword. I wasn't skilled with a sword what so ever, I only had a few fencing lessons. Which at this moment made me wonder what good a sword was. Maybe if a pirate did come in I could just toss it at him. I was pacing, that is until a huge sign crashed into the shop, followed by a pirate.
"Nat! Get out of there and go home. It's much safer there!" Will yelled. I did as he asked. Picking up the sword I had dropped I walked out side, to see a horrid misfortune. Pirate were lighting bombs and throwing them at the town's people and houses. I saw kids of all ages running to get far from the pirates. This couldn't be happening...
"I can't Will!" I said after getting over the shock of what was going on.
"GO!" I didn't want to go. Not only was I not leaving him alone with all these pirates, but I also feared for myself I saw a few pirates heading towards the mansion. That's when it hit me, Elizabeth! They were after her, Port Royal's most prized possession.
Sorry It's short I'll try to make the next chapter longer...
