The Governors Daughter

The Big Joke

By Isabelle Depp

Celeste opened her eyes and looked up. Gun smoke was clouding up the cabin. She looked around. No one was hurt and she didn't even see a hole where a bullet had went. Then she looked up at commodore, who was laughing insanely.

"What is going on?!?!" she yelled at him.

"Celeste, you should know by now that I have feelings for you. The gun wasn't loaded; it just had gun powder in it. No one was in danger." He snorted and started laughing again, this time at Lydia's face. Her eyes were wide open and she was still shaking. Tears were still apparent on her face.

"That was not funny!" Celeste seamed. "Get out! Go! Shooo!"

"Cant anyone take a little humor around here?" He looked back at the men sanding behind him, who were all shaking their heads in disappointment.

"Commodore, sir, I believe it is against a law to fire a unloaded gun." The men behind him snicker, and Commodore ignores the rude comment.

"GET OUT!!!!!!" Celeste screamed again. Commodore turned around and walked out of the cabin, mumbling about jokes and people needing a sense of humor. Celeste rolled her eyes and looked at Lydia. Her tears had dried, but her eyes were still red.

"Lydia? It's ok. Nothing would have happened. He had no ammo, it was just a 'joke' or something or the sort."

"A joke? It wasn't very funny." She looked at her leg and flinched. It was bleeding through the cloth of Celeste's dress. Celeste took the cloth off her leg and rung it out. She put it in the bucket if water to rinse it off. She tied it above the wound, as tight as she could. She ripped off another part of her dress and wrapped it around the wound. Now it will stop bleeding, or it should slow down at least."

Lydia hugged Celeste then leaned back on the wall of the cabin. She fell asleep as soon as she had closed her eyes. Celeste got up and laid down on a bed. She stared up at the top of the bunk. She thought about Jack sparrow and Lydia and her mom. She thought about Commodore and Governor Swann, dad. She thought about how worried her will be And how disappointed that she skipped out on the wedding to run away with a pirate.

Meanwhile, back in Port Royal….

Celeste's mom opened her eyes and looked outside!

"CELESTE!!! You have to get ready for the wedding! I'll come help you with the corset." He mom stumbled out of bed and went into Celeste's 'room'. "Celeste? Celeste? SHIT! Stupid. She did that on purpose didn't she? When she gets home she's gonna get it."
