Okay, then!
I'm so, so sorry for not updating in such a long time, but . . . I've been really busy, and it's hard. This is my LAST YEAR OF JUNIOR HIGH, so everything counts.
Alrighty then, time for the thank yous!
Partouf, if you'd do the honors. . .
Partouf: Oh, alright. But don't expect me to be so generous all of the time!

And so, without any further adieu, I invite you to relax, pull up a chair, as my imagination is proud to present. . .
My new chapter!
********************************************************************
Recap on last chapter:
Realization dawned on me as I said to myself 'Holy shit, I'M IN PORT ROYAL!'
********************************************************************
I struggled to catch my breath, as I was dying of hyperventilation.
But, wouldn't you hyperventilate too if you found yourself in the very same town where the famous Elizabeth and Will Turner lived!
'Oh, feck, feck, feck! I can't believe it! I'm in Port Royal!' I muttered to myself after I had calmed down, and I looked around me. To my left, a sheer cliff, rising into the serene blue sky. To my right, in the distance, a small dock with sailors and Negro men bustling back and forth onto and off of dry land.
'Well, seeing as there's not enough space to go left, I might as well go right. . . .Right after I check with Mu-' I began, and then turned back to look back at the cave . . . . . which wasn't there anymore. My jaw dropped, and I almost screamed in shock. ~That was my only way back! ~ I thought, and I furiously kicked sand at the solid rock wall that used to have a cave through it.
And so began my adventure, or more like a misadventure, by struggling through the sand and semi-high tide to the docks.
Or, at least, the long wooden planks soaked with water that went out and floated on the water, I can't remember which is which.
Anywho, I actually made it to underneath this really nice. . . .Thing. . . .Like in the scene where Jack meets Murtogg and Mullroy and them and whatever, and I sat down and watched as everyone bustled around me, not even taking a glance at the odd woman sitting underneath the . . . thing . . . in her odd clothes and such.
What an interesting day THIS was going to be!
Suddenly, as I was staring blankly off into the distance, I noticed a couple of guards point to me, and yell 'There, look! Blah blah blah PIRATE!' 'I think that means trouble. . .!' I said, and stood up as they came rushing down the dock, shoving poor innocent old men into the water. ~How rude! ~ I though, and ran for it, up the sloped walkway and into the crowded streets or Port Royal. A yell of 'HEY! STOP, YOU!' came from behind me, and as I paused to turn around, I ran into someone.
A very tall and muscular someone.
A very tall and muscular someone who had a sword drawn and a very pissed off look about him.
'Look, I'm really sorry for running into you, but I was-' I stammered, but my speech was cut off as the man hoisted me about a couple centimetres off of the ground, growling 'You stupid whore! You made me lose my concentration!' I looked around the dude to see a barrel with some cards on it, and it looked like he had been playing poker.
Oh, shee-it.
I gasped for air and clutched to my bag so that it wouldn't fall off, wriggling in the man's grasp, and saying a string of curses that would make a sailor blush. I heard him whistle, and he smirked at me, growling 'Ye've got a healthy vocabulary, lass.' I heard hurried footsteps behind me, and then two men said 'Drop the lady, and back away, sir!'
And he dropped me.
And I landed hard.
On my ass.
'Ooow, feck!' I groaned, and then I was hoisted up by the guards, and was dragged away with my back pack in the hands of one of the guards whilst being told 'You're coming with us, Miss, to see the Governor!' I didn't let them see my smile, and I thought ~Perfect! A visit to the Governor, so be it! Now I'll get to see Elizabeth! ~
Unfortunately, as I soon found out, the Governor wasn't available, so I had to wait in a locked room for him to come. 'Y'know what, I think this is just a misunderstanding. I'm. . . .An ambassador from another country, and I got lost, and . . . . Yeah.' I said feebly to the stony-faced guard who was left to watch me, but he didn't seem to be listening.
'Could things possibly get any better?' I mumbled, resting my head on my chin and tucking my bag on my lap, and then I heard a door open in the distance. 'I don't see how my father could be busy when we have a stowaway pirate here! What did you say she looked like?' I heard a female voice say, and I perked right up.
~That, ~ I thought triumphantly, ~would be Elizabeth! ~

And that, my friends, is the end of this chapter!
I'll try to update The Black Rose as soon as possible, if not sooner!
Fair winds to ye, wherever ye be,
Drink up, me hearties, YO HO!
