Well I think that's enough talking for now so here's your much awaited chapter:
Chapter Nine - The Valiant Rescue
By twilight the sleeping forms aboard the magnificent vessel began to stir. Be the time the first golden rays hit the salt stained glass windows the first of the early risers were well and truly awake. But by late morning the ship had returned to its busy state. Bustling people hurried back and forth across the worn wooden deck praising the heavens for such a splendid day. The winds sang a cheerful melody as they danced around the fleeting white sails. A perfect blue sky filled with fluffy white clouds lay out before the vessel as it plowed through the crystal waters. You couldn't have asked for a better day of sailing.
The slightly chilly wind whipped Emily's chocolate brown curls as she emerged from the sleeping quarters. A smile had already overtaken her features as she stood happily basking in the suns warmth. Clasping her simple skirts in one hand she strolled towards the helm where Jack and her parents stood deeply engrossed in a conversation.
Making her presence known she greeted each face in turn and took stand next to the Captain. His rugged features held a pleasant expression as she gazed upon him momentarily. Grinning in a wonky fashion he nodded to the young girl and she returned the gesture, a smile evident on her sunkissed face.
"Beautiful day is it not?"
He inclined his head slightly, eyes glued to the horizon. "Couldn't have asked for better."
She smiled and nodded silently in agreement. Resting her eyes for a moment she breathed in deeply as a fresh breeze floated around them. Sniffing slightly her brown orbs fluttered open and gazed around curiously.
"Can you smell that?"
Eyeing Emily in a questioning manor her parents inhaled the sweet air and paused. Shaking her head Elizabeth stepped forward and placed a slender hand upon her daughters' forehead worriedly. Emily struggled away and released herself from her mothers' grasp. Looking slightly flushed she frowned.
"I'm fine."
Turning to the still figure belonging to the pirate captain she watched him expectantly. Eyes still firmly affix on the horizon, he turned to Emily no longer smiling. "I can smell it too."
Looking past him she leant forward. Blinking quickly the scene before her came into focus. A light kindled in the distant sky disturbing the tranquil and calm blue. A pillar of smoke steadily rose and tickled the tummies of the pale clouds. Sparks of fire shot in all directions creating what would seem like fireworks. Dropping her gaze slightly horror claimed her face. A now charcoal vessel could be seen being devoured by a red a gold flame at a rapid pace. Cries of help rang in her ears as she turned to Jack.
"We have to save them!"
By this time they had neared the ship dramatically and it was obvious to all that those people aboard the flaming ship were no more than merchant sailors. The smell of fire and burning wood seared at their nostrils as Elizabeth gazed upon the innocent ship helplessly. The same expression her daughter bore was mirrored in her liquid brown orbs. Will stood watching Jacks every move hoping he would do the right thing. Silence cut through the air like a rusty knife, with an exception of the terrified screams. Everyone stood still and awaited their Captain's decision.
Sighing Jack nodded and steered the Pearl as close as he could but so he was still at a safe distance alongside the blazing vessel. Unfortunately that said safe distance was a long one and there was no chance of the sailors merely jumping aboard. Ordering five of his crewmembers to cut ropes and swing over to rescue the innocent people Jack leaned against the steering wheel and tried to hold the Pearl steady.
The five pirates plus the four sailors and one woman swung back safely. Jack made to pull away from the almost sunken ship when the woman let out a yell. Elizabeth by her side tried to comfort the woman and make out what she was saying. Spanish can out in a flurry and even though she only knew a little Elizabeth still managed to get the main idea. Nodding her head understandingly she stood up and walked briskly over to Jack.
"The woman said her son is still aboard the boat." When Jack made no reply she spoke to him with urgency. "Jack?!? There is still someone aboard the now nearly sunken ship!"
Nodding this time he swerved the Pearl back alongside the ship and yelled orders to one of his crewmembers. "Take another rope. There's still a boy on the wreck. Bring him back safely or I'll have your neck for it."
The man nodded and grabbed the closest rope. Winding it around his large hand tightly he swung over onto the burning wreck. Will suddenly appeared at the Captains side looking concerned and nearly frantic. "Emily's gone!"
"Gone?" Jack asked questioningly.
Will nodded and eyed the burning ship with suspicion. "Gone! Missing! Disappeared! Whatever you would call it. She's just not here!"
With a twinkle in his eye Jack placed a hand on the panicking mans shoulder reassuringly. "We'll find her and if it's any conciliation I haven't seen Junior all morning."
Patrick appeared eyeing his father with annoyance. "Jack. I'm right here."
Before the matter could be pressed any further the sudden sound of Spanish could be heard. All three males turned to see Emily holding a bundle in her arms being hugged tightly by both the woman and a man that now stood by her side. A smile of relief appeared on Will's face as his daughter's figure met his eyes. Striding over to her he layed a firm hand on her shoulder. She turned around and flinched slightly when she saw who it was. A strange smile budded on Will's face as he leaned towards her.
"You have a lot of explaining to do young lady."
Authors Note - Well that was an interesting chapter. I love writing Jack but it's a real challenge thinking of what he should say and do. Oh well I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Can't wait to hear from you all and find out what you think. Love Lizzie P.S I have one more chapter already written and roughly a half of another one ready to post when I'm satisfied that enough people have reviewed! *Grins evilly*
