How infamous is he?
Nicola woke up the next day, found a way to 'pinch' a few foods and when she had finished her breakfast, she decided to explore a few bits of the ship. She found herself in a desserted place, looking around at what a ship's got.

When she was passing past a cabin, the door burst open, and a boy about her age stumbled right at her. "-And stay out! You-" A loud screechy voice squeled and cursed dangerously, and they could both hear her still ramble on about stuff people didn't want to hear.

The boy got up, mumbled a little to himself as he straightened himeself. Then he looked at Nicola as if he hadn't noticed her. "Oops... Sorry, I was um... kinda in a hurry." The boy said, foolishily, rubbing his head.

Nicola smirked (a little mockingly) at the comment and almost rolled her eyes. "Ha, yeah. In a hurry..." Nicola repeated as she didn't have anything else to say. "Well..." She motioned a gesture that she was going to leave now.

As she was passing, the boy grabbed her arm. "What's the hurry?" He cocked his head and frowned as he stared at Nicola. "Hey, you look kinda familiar... Do I know you?" He asked, which caused Nicola to raise one eyebrow. "Ah, that's right.... You're the girl that got on the wrong ship!" He stated, halfly winding her up.

But Nicola stayed calm and simply rolled her eyes slightly. "Great So everybody knows that now..." She said, and the boy lightly laughed.

"So... What's your name?" The boy asked out of the blues. "I'm Kory by the way..." He talked grinning.

Nicola blinked. Most of the boys in Port Royal had names like, Michael, Benjamin or Edward, something that sounded royal. But if it was unusual, it would be a very long name. But she hadn't heard of the name 'Kory' in Port Royal.

Nicola rubbed her arm as she got back to Kory's question."I'm Nicola." She told him. Then added, "Nicola Norr-... Nicola Sparrow." She added proudly, thinking of her mother's maiden name.

As soon as Nicola said 'Sparrow', Kory's eyes widened. "Did you just say Sparrow?" He asked, just to make sure. "You... You're the Capt'n Jack Sparrow's... daughter?" He asked, frowning a bit with shock but excitment.

Nicola was surprised that he knew her uncle. "No... I'm his niece." She announced. "You know him?" She asked, waiting for the answer.

Kory chuckled as if Nicola was joking. "You've gotta be kidding me! Of course I know Capt'n Sparrow! Who doesn't?" He said. "I'm going to be in his crew one day... Maybe even his first-mate!" He exclaimed, his eyes twinkling with his dream.

Nicola frowned a little. 'Uncle Jack's first-mate? Now, that's a little too much...' She thought and grinned. She was also grinning at how famous her uncle is. "Well, Kory, see you around..." She flashed a smile and walked passed, the direction to her cabin.

Kory smirked and waved, as he walked the opposite way.

Nicola was on her way to the cabin, when a big fat pirate twisted her wrist. "I'm gonna be rich when I sell ye!" He laughed maniaclly, as Nicola tried to get out of the man's grip.

"Let me go!" She shouted and the stranger. "Someone! Help me!" She shouted again. She tried to kick him and punch him, but the pirate was just too heavy and fat.

The pirate man looked annoyed and shouted in a big echoey voice, "Shut up!", but Nicola gave him the evils and kept on screaming for help. The man was about to punch Nicola, when a hand grabbed his. "What the...?"

A sword was pointed to the man's thraot. "Do not harm a single hair on this girl..." The voice said calm. "Or else ye'll have ter deal with me!" The man who saved Nicola said.

The fat pirate laughed, even though he was sweating and uncomfortable with the blade at his throat. "An' what if I get passed ye?" He questioned, boastfully.

"Well then ye can take her and sell her..." The man announced, which Nicola got shocked. "After ye get through Jack Sparrow!" He said his name threateningly. Nicola figured by now that he was none other than Mr Appledorn.

The fat pirate looked shocked and surprised. "Ye mean... the capt'n Sparrow? Capt'n o' Black Pearl?" He quizzed, sweating more, and when he recieved a nod, he stared at Nicola. "I.... I'm so sorry. Please don't tell Jack Sparrow!" He pleaded.

Mr Appledorn looked down at Nicola, waiting for her answer. Nicola grinned. "Alright .. Only in one condition though!" She said smartly and the chubby pirate gulped. "Never ever try and sell little children or else I'll find out somehow and tell my uncle!" She announced and Mr Appledorn couldn't help but smirk.

"I... I wont, never ever again! I promise, just don't tell Sparrow." The man stammered. When Mr Appledorn gave him a cold stare, he backed away slowly breaking into a run.

Nicola blinked at how that had happened. "Wow, my uncle must be pretty scary." She mentioned out loud.

Mr Appledorn smirked. "Not scary... Just famous, or should I say infamous." He corrected, mainly to himself.

"And I can't believe I shooed a pirate that was about 3 times my size!" Nicola excitedly told him, happily.

Mr Appledorn just smiled and didn't say anything. He figured that Nicola didn't know that the fat pirate wasn't sober.

As the two of them walked back to the cabin, Nicola noticed a small dot in the distance. She squinted her eyes then her eyes went round with happiness. "An island, Mr Appledorn! An island!" She shouted excitedly at her only companion.

Mr Appledorn stared hard at the dot then smriked shortly afterwards. "It's not just an island... It's Tortuga." He explained, both of them looking silently at the island near the sunset.
