Chapter 2

I don't own the pirates, just Alyse and Nicole and the plot

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Pearl

Jack was taking Will away from Port Royale for awhile since Elizabeth decided to marry Norrington. Ever since she told Will he hasn't been the same. He seems to always be in another world, one where he is always sad.

"Will, do you wanna....wanna steer? Will? WILL?"

"Huh? Oh, sorry. What?"

"Oh nothing."

"Where are we going to?"

"Does it matter?"

"Yes it does."

"Away, away from Port Royale."

Will went back into his trance.

"Gibbs, get me some rum. I am afraid I will be needing a lot of it."

"Right away Cap'n."

Than Jack drifted into a world all his own.

The Sea Hawk

The girls heard footsteps.

"Is someone there?" Nicole was worried because she couldn't see a thing

"Yea, I am Steve, I work on this ship. I have brought you two some food."

"Oh, I see thank you."

"Well, criminals with manners. That is a new one!" he lit a match and Nicole and Alyse saw a handsome young man

"We are not criminals!" Alyse didn't like being called that

"Oh sorry, what am I to call you then."

"I am Alyse and that is Nicole."

"Nice to meet you."

"Same here."

"So, they are really going to hang you two?"

"I am afraid so."

"Why are you striking up conversations with young ladies who are to be hanged for causing crimes?" Alyse was suspicious

"Well, to be truthful I am new on this ship and don't really know anyone. I get stuck with the jobs no one else wants. But this one I am enjoying, a conversation with two pretty girls that are rebels."

"Oh please!" Alyse sighed and decided she didn't like this guy

"Oh, Alyse, that was sweet, be nice." Nicole thought he was kind

"Well, here is your food. I have to go." he opened the door and handed Nicole food for the both of them

"Thank you." she took it and handed some to Alyse, "We better eat up."

"Yes, this seems like a great meal." she lifted the spoon and watched the food fall off it

They ate their food and chatted. Nicole said she was scared and Alyse tried to comfort her(which is not like her and didn't work to well). The morning faded into afternoon, but the girls didn't notice because they always felt like it was night. Then they took a nap, they were awoken by Steve calling them.

"Girls, wake up."

"What, oh not you again!"

"Hi Steve."

"Hello. I have your dinner."

"Oh, thank you."

"Is it alright if I stay? I don't really like it above deck."

"I am going back to sleep!" Alyse announced

"You can stay, we can talk."

"Alright."

"Do you know how long until we reach Port Royale?"

"In a couple of days."

"I see."

"I have a question for you."

"Than ask it."

"How is it that a girl who is nice like you ended up in all sorts of trouble?"

"Well you see, when I was ten I became an orphan. I meet Alyse and we became good friends and grew up together on the streets. We started to need things so we had to steal them. When we were younger people would give us food because they felt bad for us. But than when we became young women, the men started to want things in exchange and Alyse and I were not like that, so we had to steal what we needed. And now I am here."

"Bloody hell, that is horrible."

"It wasn't so bad."

"I am so sorry you had to go though that!"

"Its not your fault."

"Yes it is." Alyse muttered from her sleep

Steve and Nicole laughed. That had been the first time she laughed in a few days. Not really having the best time of her life lately.

"Well, I think I should best be going up. It was nice to talk to you though."

"Same here." than he blew out the candle and went up

Nicole feel asleep after eating. She slept late into the next day.

The next day, well what they thought was the next day since they couldn't really tell, it rained. Maybe a storm but they didn't really know. Nicole's eyes ached for some sun. Alyse was getting really sick of the dark.

"What the Hell! I am sick of this darkness!"

"Me too Alyse."

They had run out of things to talk about. Both girls didn't really feel like talking. Life was now to short to talk. They just sat there, each thinking.

Alyse

'I feel so bad for getting her caught up in this, she is a good person. She shouldn't be here.'

'Its not all your fault. She is the one who stole it.'

'Yea, because I told her to.'

'I wonder if I am ever going to get out of here?'

Nicole

'This sucks.'

'I should have just told her that I didn't want to take the food.'

'I don't want to die in a few days, and I know she doesn't want to."

Than they both heard foot steps.

"Hello luv!" Alyse acted like nothing was bothering her

"Hey girls."

"What has the cook made us today?"

"That is not why I am down here."

"Than why are you?"

"I want to help you two. You see tonight we will be sailing past Tortuga."

"How do you know about Tortuga? You aren't a pirate?" Alyse was confused

"I used to be. You see they took over the ship I was on and if I didn't go over to their side they were going to kill me."

"Really?" Nicole was shocked

"Yes, now back to what I came down here to say. Tortuga, we are passing there tonight and I am going to get you two out of here."

"How?"

"Tonight when it gets quite dark I am going to come down here and get you two out and they you are going to have to row our little boat to Tortuga."

"What is going to happen to you?"

"I don't know, I will just tell them that when I came down here you two were gone."

"Why are you doing this?"

"Because you guys are nice and need help."

"Thank you so much." Nicole was almost to tears with joy

"Thanks." Alyse didn't sound as happy, she didn't like people helping her

"I will come back tonight."

"We will be waiting."

Than he left. Nicole and Alyse just sat there all day in shock. Waiting, hoping nothing would fail with his plan. Than he came. He opened the door in a hurry.

"Come now, we don't have a lot of time. Most of the crew is eating."

The girls ran out and followed him up. They had to be quiet and fast, a hard ting to accomplish. Than they made it to the little boat at the side of the ship.

"Get in now, I will lower you down."

"We own you our lives, thank you so much!" than Nicole kissed him on the check, he blushed a bit and then they got in and were lowered down "Bye."

"Bye girls! Don't get into to much trouble!" than they were in the water and both rowed their little hearts out

They rowed all night and into the morning. It was tiring work. Than they finally reached land.

"Here we are! Land and light!" Alyse was thrilled to see the sun rising

"I can't believe this, I thought in a few days mu life would be no more, but now look at us! In a pirate town. This time no stealing!"

"Oh, fine."

They pushed the little row boat on shore and plopped down on the sand and just layed there looking into the sun and its beautiful rays. They layed there for some hours and then Nicole spoke.

"I think we should get a job."

"What kind, the only jobs here for women is whores and barmaids. And there is no way in hell that I am going to be a whore, and barmaids make nothing!"

"I have an idea. You know that act we made so many years ago."

"No Nicole! No! I am not ding that again!"

"I believe you will. We don't have many other options."

"Ahh, you promised me we would never do it again! It is soo embarrassing!"

"Why? You were good at it! You owe me! We are doing it! But first we should practice."

They were on the beach practicing it for most of the bright day.

Thats it for now!! I wonder what it will be!! Sorry to do that to you!! I didn't want to go the route with Jack and Will saving them, that is used to much. Did I do good? Please review!! Thank you to my two reviewers!! YOU ROCK!!!! Could you tell me if I made any mistakes. I do that alot!!!
