I do not own potc.
Last chappie folks!
Jack's eyes were wide and he stared down at his chest. Devon howled with laughter as he padded himself over to make sure she hadn't really shot him.
"Nothing in the bloody gun," she said waving it at his face and laughing again.
"I'm really glad you find that funny," he snapped snatching the pistol out of her hand and throwing it on the ground. Devon gave him a smug look and picked it up again.
"Lighten up you dour bastered." she said turning and walking out of the chamber and through the cave. Jack followed her his face set with thunder.
"Lighten up you say?" he growled, "You sent me ship off with Tarrogyn, you shoot me and you lose my crew!" he looked up to the heavens, "My crew, where the hell are they!" Getting to the end of the cave they were dowsed in sunlight, Devon squinted over at the Pearl as she sailed towards the horizon.
"You crew Jack," she glanced over at his raging face. "Are on the Pearl." he looked at her question.
"You said there was-"
"I know what I said Jack!" Devon snapped, "Do you honestly think I'm going to let my father sail away with my treasure!?" she waved the pistol frantically in the direction of his ship. "The only way to get my father off that ship," she thrust her hands at the Echo, "Is to get him on that ship." she waved her hands at the Pearl. Jacks grin crawled across his face.
"Ahh, I see luv,"
"Your crew are hiding in the brig, my father hasn't a large crew to begin with and with five less still on the Echo your men will have them locked up in no time." she climbed into the boat and hardly waited for Jack to do the same before she rowed off. Grumbling he cast a look at his ship as she grew smaller in the distance.
"Are you sure they are on there?" he asked squinting at her, Devon rolled her eyes.
"Aye." Drawing close to the Echo Devon heaved herself up a rope and landed on deck .
"Devon!" her closest friend when she had been part of the crew on the Echo slapped her back, "Was wondering what had happened to my favourite lass." Devon hugged the man briefly before turning her attention to the Pearl
"Gerry, lock Cocker and Frank in the brig, they're not going to stand for what's going on over there." Gerry raised his eyebrows.
"Does that make me first mate if I do?" Devon grinned and nodded. Jack approached her as Gerry left,
"What you doing that for?" he frowned following her gaze out to the Pearl.
"Cocker and Frank are my fathers chums, they'll back stab me given have a chance, the other two there." she nodded at the two sorry looking pirates, "They'll just do whatever, as long as they have a bed and some food and a share of any treasure they'll do as asked." she turned and narrowed her eyes at Jack.
"Your lucky Jack, the thought did cross my mind to leave you on the Isle." the pirate grinned at her putting a hand on her shoulder.
"You cant get rid of me like that, ask Barbossa, it just doesn't work for me."
"Full sails lads," she hollered still looking at Jack, "You knew that door would open all along didn't you?" her eyes narrowed and she felt the Echo lurch forward. Jack grinned.
"Aye luv, I did."
"It didn't open cos of me." she held him in her grilling stare and he frowned. "Perhaps it opened cos of you?" Jack shrugged a small smile playing his lips,
"Perhaps."
The Pearl had stopped now and Devon could make out Jack's crew jeering and waving from the deck. Jack flashed her a huge smile as the Echo sidled up beside her.
"She's all yours Jack." Devon waved a hand over the huge dark ship and turned to motion Mr Gibbs to throw over her chest. He nodded and tied it to a rope swinging it over to the Echo. Gerry caught it and set it down.
"I'm sure we'll meet again," he grinned swaying back on his feet, "I've taken quite a fancy to that little box over there," Devon scowled,
"If you even think about pilfering my ship I'll have the chances of you bearing children reduced to zero." she glared at him as he caught a hold of a rope ready to swing across.
"You're a challenge Captain Tarrogyne, I'll give you that."
"And you're a pain in the ass." she couldn't help but smile. Jack tugged on the rope to make sure it was capable of holding his weight. Satisfied he turned back to her smiling wickedly.
"And I'll be stealing a kiss off you before I go." Devon was surprised when she didn't push him away, and more surprised when she found herself enjoying the warmth of his mouth against hers. He pulled away grinning like a fool.
"Until next time luv," Devon scowled at his back as he swung off and onto his own ship, almost as soon as his feet touched the deck the Pearl lurched forward. She sighed.
"Come on you three," she said to her three trustworthy crew members, "Lets go and get some more men aboard this ship. Tortuga!" They jeered at the prospect of the Port and a smile settled on her lips as the Echo picked up speed in the wake of the Pearl. She could see Jack at the helm his back to her as the distance between the two ships grew, as if sensing her eyes he turned lifting his hat in a mock statute.
"Fool." she breathed a grin plastering itself on her lips.
Sequel anyone?
A huge thanks to my reviewers, you keep me going girls and as a reward I'll post you the first chapter of the new story out in a little while. I.e. nowish, once I finished posting this one out. Its called AN EHCO IN THE WIND. I've spent a little more time on it so I'm hoping it's a bit better than this one and more romance I promise! Thanks. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
