A Little Reunion

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...

Libby started to mumble the song as she gained consciousness...and swallowed a mouthful of water.

"Just keep – cough-cough glug-glug."

Libby jerked awake. She was surrounded by water! And she was sure she hadn't wet herself. She sputtered as she looked around. She was in some kind of harbor full of tied ships, next to a cliff.

Libby's head began to swim, taking over because she couldn't, she was too dazed. She sank...

Just before she slipped into the heavy sleep of drowning she felt strong arms grab her and pull her up.

She heard lots of gasps around her as she was placed gently on the jetty. She sat up and looked around.

"Two unfortunate swimmers in one day!" came a faintly familiar voice. "My word. Elizabeth dear, was this child there too?"

"No, Father," said another familiar voice. "I've not seen him until now."

Libby sat up. She was surrounded by a bunch of people in both very outdated clothes. The people in the clothes looked very familiar. But she was still in a daze.

"Where am I?" Libby asked weakly.

"All right, young lad?" An ugly guy with white hair looked down at her. "What be thee doing, frolicking around then?"

"What?" Libby blinked and rubbed her eyes. Norrington? What the heck?!

"What the hell were you doing swimming in that water," a husky voice explained. Libby recognized it instantly and turned to face him.

The young woman who she had heard before turned to him in disgust. "Blasphemy, sir! Much as I am grateful for your rescue, I am appalled."

"Ja...Ja...Jac, Oh, my God, JACK SPARROW?!?!" Libby shrieked and coughed up about a bucketful of sea water and eels.

The young woman stared, aghast. "Your language! Such a child."

"Aha!" Said Norrington to Libby's favourite movie character ever. "You are a pirate!"

Jack looked annoyed. "I am Mr. Smith. I will not be insulted by such... such, oh what the hell. What are you going to do?"

Norrington looked triumphant. He turned to Libby, who was getting to her feet and squeezing water and small fish from her hair.

"And YOU, lad, must be a pirate too, for you know this man."

The Governor glared at her. "Am I to assume you know Jack Sparrow, young man?"

Libby gave a small laugh of disbelief. "Everybody knows him! I... Hey, I'm a girl!"

Everybody gasped again. Jack raised an eyebrow, looking pleased that another person knew about him and obviously thought everyone else did too. Norrington looked thunderstruck.

"Impossible," Elizabeth murmered.

"That... what... then, well... HOWEVER," he sputtered. "Your clothes do not indicate so."

Libby looked down. Of course, she was wearing jeans. She had to smile.

"I'm wearing pants. So shoot me."

Now even Jack looked confused. Norrington prodded his gun looking puzzled. Elizabeth looked incredulous and the Governor blinked. "Miss?"

"I mean, er, are you really going to shoot me because I wear pants," She amended. What a day. Sarcasm was going to be pretty scarce.

"Well then young lady," the Gov said. He went very red. "Would you kindly go... go... and... cover up."

What! Did her top fall off or something? Libby checked herself twice. "Why? I'm wearing a T-shirt."

Jack grinned. This little lass had nerve, running around in what looked like undergarments and mens' wear

"Then, young lady," The Governor continued, now looking anywhere but at her. "May you kindly explain why you were frolicking about."

"So was she," Libby pointed to Elizabeth.

 Elizabeth was affronted.

"I fell because of that corset. I couldn't breathe."

"Well I whacked my head on something," Libby said truthfully. "And I found myself swimming. Then Jack must have saved me after he saved you."

"Oh yes... Jack Sparrow." The Governor turned to the pirate and snarled. "Shoot him!"


More chappies coming!! Please review!

PS. Libby CAN swim. And also she has a haircut which is really cool and something the Victorians wouldn't dream of giving their daughters.
