Will came running in, sword drawn, ready to attack the pirate with his
"daughter".
"Get away from my daughter, pirate!" He then realized this was Jack, and put his sword down. "Jack? What are you doing with Jacklyn?"
"The better question would be, what are ye doing without her?" Jacklyn stood there eyeing Jack up and down; she didn't trust him in the least.
"Enough!" Jacklyn said, "I ran away! It's not my father's fault." Jack didn't know how to react to that. So he just said the first thing that came to his mind.
"See, it's not my fault."
"No, it's not his fault. Savvy?" Jack smiled hearing his daughter using the phrase that he never expected her to use.
"But you said father." Will eyes widened.
"Jack, could I speak to you for a moment?" Will said hastily and pulled Jack into a secluded hallway.
"Aye?"
"What were you thinking?"
"I was thinking that I might get me daughter back."
"But she's not eighteen yet."
"Eighteen-thirteen no real big difference."
"Five years is quite a large difference!"
"Well, consider not seeing your own child for thirteen years than seeing her in the hands of a dangerous pirate."
"What?"
"I was on me Pearl, just minding me own business, when I saw a pirate with his knife to her throat."
"A knife to my daughter's throat!?"
"Nye, mate. My daughter's throat. Now, I'm asking ye very non-Jackishly. Please, please give me back me daughter. You don't know what it feels like being a father who abandoned his little girl."
Will stared at him, waiting for a punch-line, there wasn't one, just a man staring back, hoping to get his daughter back.
"You can have her, but we all get to tell her. And don't just blurt it out!! We need to break it to her slowly."
"Aye, wonderful!"

Ugh, writers block is hard. I'm sorry it took so long to get this chapter up, and the fact that it's so short. I'll start working on the next one soon. Ciao!
