Chapter Twelve
A year had gone by. Jack had come back a few weeks later as he had promised. Elizabeth had told Jack about her encounter with Will. Jack understood. After everything that had happened with Pearl they figured if she really wanted to come back to them, she would come back one day. Slowly, everything began to get back to normal. Jack went out sailing every now and then, and sometimes Elizabeth and Suzette would join him, but only if it wasn't for a long period of time.
Don't get me wrong. They still missed Pearl a great deal even Suzette did, and didn't even know her. Suzette grew older. On her ninth birthday was when she really began to be interested in her piano lessons, and recitals. She was nothing like Pearl. Sure, she liked to go sailing with her father once in a while, but she was much more lady like than Pearl. She would always be a daddy's girl even though she didn't spend much time with him.
It was hard for Jack to face the fact that Suzette did not want to follow in his footsteps, and maybe someday become a lady pirate, but he was still very proud of her. She had recently been accepted to a finishing school for young girls, and she planned to go. Jack decided that since she would be leaving soon that he should take her out sailing with his crew for one last time.
~*~
"Dad, where are we going?" Suzette asked.
Jack looked away from the sea and to his daughter. God, she looked so much like Elizabeth. It was like a mini Elizabeth. Same beauty and grace, but she did have her father's eyes; that was a plus. He could tell she would be a heartbreaker when she was older. "We be going to Port Royal. Be where ye mum grew up...most likely we'll be seeing ye granddad." He said; the last part in a dreading tone.
"I have a grandfather?" she asked a bit surprised. "You told me he was dead!" she shouted in confusion.
Oppss. Jack forgot about that. He sighed. "Listen little one, ye have a grandpa...and he is alive, just he doesn't know about ye."
Suzette's eyes widened. "What?! My own grandfather doesn't know about me?! DAD!!! How could you not tell him?!" she screamed. The crew was silent. Jack knew they were listening. He turned to them. "Back to work!" he ordered. He looked at Suzette. Well, she certainly had her mother's temper. Suzette stood there with her arms crossed looking away from her father.
Jack bent down. "Look, me and ye grandpa ain't exactly on the best of terms. I be a pirate, and he be the governor of Port Royal. His job it to kill pirates. Ye understand?" he asked. Still looking away Suzette nodded.
"Good." Jack said as he stood back up and steer the Pearl. "You still could have told me." She mumbled in his direction. He looked over at her. "Well, it's a little late for that, don't ye think?" he asked in a sarcastic tone. Then there was silence. Moments later they felt drops of rain begin to fall. Jack knew that it would soon turn into a storm. He looked at Suzette.
"Suzy, go into ye room, and go to bed. There be a storm, and I don't want ye to be getting sick, savvy?" he asked, but in a more demanding way. Suzette nodded and hurried into her room. There she took the red ribbon out of her hair, and let her long golden curls fall to her shoulders. She then changed into her nightdress and climbed into bed. She rolled over at looked out the small window above her bed. She knew a storm would be starting up soon.
~*~
"Captain! We be going the wrong way!" a crew mate shouted through the rain.
Jack looked over trying to see anything at all. It was pouring too hard to see where you were going. He looked at his compass. Dear god, they were going the wrong way. But at this point it didn't matter. They just needed to get out of this storm! 'Doesn't matter! Just keep going until we's get out of this bloody rain!" he called back.
This would be a long night.
~*~
"Dad, are you sure you know where we are going? I mean we have been looking for Port Royal for at least three days now, and you said we'd be there in less than two!" she shouted. Jack sighed. It was like having a little Elizabeth on board. At the moment Suzette reminded him of one of those little dogs that you said hi to, but they'd just bark and bark, and then even if you kicked them they'd still bark. Jack laughed at the thought of it.
"What's so funny?" she asked.
Jack looked away. "Nothing, love." He said.
"Dad! My name is Suzette! Su...zette!" shouted. "Don't call me love!"
Jack rolled his eyes. "I don't mean it like that. I mean it in a good way. I mean it as if to say that I love me daughter. Is that alright?" he asked.
Suzette didn't say anything. She simply crossed her arms. "Well I still don't like it." She said.
Jack sighed. "Suzette, ye be me little girl, me heart, and I can't live without me heart, savvy?" he said.
Suzette smiled. "Ok."
Just then they heard a cannon blow. Someone was firing at his ship. HIS SHIP! "Stop blowin holes in me ship!" he shouted. "Loud the cannons!" he called to the crew. "Suzette, go to yer room." He demanded. She didn't say anything. She simply ran off into her room. The blows continued as they fired back. Soon they came close enough for them to put the plank out and walk across to the other ship. Of course Jack was the first over.
Once he was across the blows stopped. He looked around and realized he was surrounded by dozens of pirates. Men and women, he smiled nervously. They didn't do anything; they only looked at him. Then, suddenly, to rather large men came over and they each grabbed one of his arms. "We's taken you to the captain." One of them said.
That was what Jack wanted so he didn't have a problem with it. Jack looked around as they took him to the captain. The ship was quite nice actually. Nice and big, and everything seemed to be pretty clean. It was almost as if a woman ran this ship. They soon came upon a door that led to the captain's quarters. They opened the door as Jack stepped inside.
"What do we have here boys?" a voice asked.
"Looks to me as Cap'n Sparrow...what shall we do with him?" one of the men asked.
"Captain Sparrow is it?" the voice said. "Just leave him here boys. I'd like to have a word with him." The voice demanded. "Yes, miss." They both said together. Jack looked surprised. So it was a girl...interesting.
He heard footsteps and saw a figure come out of the shadows. He only saw the woman's body at the moment. From the looks of it she was wearing a pair of dark brown trousers tucked into a pair of black boots. She wore a white poet top, with a deep red corset over it making her waist look extremely small. The woman then stepped out of the shadows completely.
Jack's eyes widened.
"Long time, no see Jack." The woman said.
"Pearl?" he said.
She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, its me. I have my own crew now." She said.
Silence.
"I saw your ship, do I decided to say hello." She added with a smile.
Jack looked at her, "So ye blew holes in me ship?" he asked.
"Hey, you did the same to me." She snapped.
Jack shook his head. "Anyway, how have ye been?" he asked.
Pearl shrugged. "I've been good...what about you? Obviously you've been fine if you're out sailing again with what looks like Suzette as well?"
Jack's eyes widened once again. Suzette! He had forgotten about her. 'Pearl, we need to go get Suzette! Now!" she shouted.
"Alright..." Pearl mumbled as they walked out and up to the top deck. A/N: SO what did you think? I know a little bit of a stupid ending, but I didn't know where else to end it. I hope ya'll are liking my ficcy so far. I am very greatful for my reviewers. Please r/r! Thanks!
