For the Love of Jack
A New Acquaintance
All of her life Gypsy Hawk had been the aid to her father, Captain Spencer Hawk. Gypsy had also been born and brought up on the pirate ship the Blood Ruby. The ship got her name from a small blood ruby that is imbedded in the necklace that now hangs from Gypsy's neck, as it had on her mother's years before. As she reached the age thirteen, her father thought it best she have more authority over the crew. But they didn't like the idea.
"'Tis all right father. The lads don't need a woman guidin' them any way. I'll just go and cook or clean or somethin'. Savvy?" Gypsy said as she tried to convince her father into believing she really didn't mind the crew's decision (though she really did).
One day when Gypsy was 'swabbing' the deck a young man came on board. He looked to be around fifteen, two years older than Gypsy's current age. Plus he had a poet's shirt, britches, and boots that fit his look very well, that was rounded of by his shoulder length, black hair, and his brown eyes.
"Where is the captain of the ship?" the boy asked a near by pirate.
"Who want's to know?" the pirate requested.
"No one who is intending to tell you!" the boy shot back.
"For someone so young, you happen to have a big mouth. Gypsy come 'ere," the pirate said. As Gypsy came closer, her heart began to beat faster. What does he want me to do now? She thought. She wasn't keen on showing a boy to the captain, whom the boy didn't know, was her father. And she especially wasn't excited about the fact that the boy was very attractive.
" Why don't you show our young guest to the cap'n." the pirate said. Gypsy stood up strait and said," Only if I know his name,"
"I will not give my name to a girl!"
"Oh, you will if you know what's good for you. What's the matter? Can't trust a girl wit' your name, can you?" She shot back.
" My name is Jack Sparrow," the boy said, reluctantly.
"See know that wasn't so hard. Fallow me." Gypsy led the boy to the helm, where Captain Hawk was standing and talking to another pirate, whose name was Billy.
"Look Billy, its Gypsy and who are you?" Cap. Hawk asked in a very sarcastic tone.
"My name is-"
"-Jack Sparrow!" Gypsy said with a large bow and a playful grin.
"That's not how you should be treatin' our guests, Gypsy." Billy said in his low drunken voice. Billy was one to get carried away in his drinking and almost seemed proud of it. Though he sounded drunk most of the time, he only had a drink of rum once a day, (and he only got carried away on special occasions.) "Yeah well he insisted in thinking girls were inferior to him self." Gypsy told them.
"Well Mr. Sparrow," Cap. Hawk said," when you get a little older, you'll learn that women are very much above us all. 'Tis them who give life- "
"And pleasure," Billy added. Gypsy frowned at that remark, but Billy just shrugged his shoulders and gave her an 'innocent' look.
"So boy, what do you want?" Cap. Hawk asked.
" To see the captain." Jack said.
"But I am the captain, so what do you want?"
"To be a member of your crew. My father was a pirate, so before you ask I do have pirate blood."
"You know how to cook?" Cap. Hawk asked.
"No" was Jack's response.
" Well then, you can finish swabbin' the deck and Gypsy, you start dinner!"
"But Captain I didn't come to be some sort of cabin boy!" Jack protested.
"Do want to be part of the crew?" Jack nodded," the then you will have to learn to start low and then work you way up like the rest of us did."
With that Jack started mopping the deck and Gypsy went into the haul of the ship to start cooking, as the ship took off.
A few hours later, after every one had finished eating, Gypsy showed Jack where he was going to sleep.
"We have to share a room. And I'm sorry that I didn't show you sooner." Gypsy said.
"That's alright. And I'm sorry that I was such a bastard up there. That captain was just getting' me nervous, even before I met him. I just don't have people skills."
Gypsy just nodded, "Well goodnigh'.Jack Sparrow." And she lay down on her hammock.
Jack did the same thing then asked," How well do you know the Capn'?"
" Very well.he's my father."
Well that was my first chapter of my first fanfic. Woohoo for me. YYYYYYEEEEAAAAAHHHHH! Ok I'm finished. That was fun. Now for the begging. PLEASE SEND IN YOUR REVIEWS. I NEED THEM. They help me. Give me advice anything. But please restrain, if possible, from being mean. *Puppy dog face*
