.:: Who wants a part in PotC 2? Well, too bad... Take it up with Disney ::.
-I'd like to take this opportunity to say that the people at Disney are meanies for making us fans write a disclaimer when we practically worship PotC! Ok, I'm done... you know what I mean when I write 'disclaimer,' and there it is, so drop it!
-I'd like to say that I own some things Disney doesn't... Lindsay, Jessica, Arielle Faye Turner, Rebecca Barbossa, the Meridian, and the two mystery characters soon to come! =))

CHAPTER FOUR: "This isn't Gilligan's Island!"
With the shock of all of this happening and being real and stuff along that line, I followed Lindsay and Jack out of the room and into the hall. Jack turned to us before we left, and we gathered closely.
"Let's not have a repeat of sword hunting as you like to call it, savvy?" Jack whispered. Jessica and I went red and smiled. All because we couldn't shut up... wait! Why are we taking the full blame?
"Lindsay called the cops!" I argued.
"Shh..." Will said. "Governer Swann is right up the hall asleep." So, with that, we turned quietly to go down the staircase. The line up was Jack, Lindsay, me, Jessica, then Will. We slowly went down the staircase unnoticed, except for the fact that Jessica kept stepping on my heels ("Sorry, Ravii!" Jessica said. Yeah, you better be...)! So, Now we gotta make a break for the door...
"Go, lassie," Jack said to Lindsay. Lindsay, with her book bag and purse swinging around, ran for the door. She stopped though.
"It's locked!" she mouthed frantically. Jack ran over to her covered in bags, dropped them, and pulled out a knife. I saw him try to pick the lock, but it wasn't working.
"Get under the staircase!" I heard Will whisper.
"Why?" I asked.
"Someone's coming!" Jessica whispered quickly. So, the three of us ran off the stairs and under them. Will bumped over a table with a vase of roses on it, and it smashed onto the floor. When he was under the stairs with us, Jessica elbowed him.
"Nice!" she whispered. I looked over at the door, Lindsay and Jack still trying to open the door. We motioned them over as we heard a voice come from the top of the stairs.
"Who's there?" the voice said.
"Crap! A maid!" I said. Jack and Lindsay finally ran over to us, bags shaking at their sides. Lindsay slammed herself against the wall and dropped her bags.
"Listen," Jack panted. "Door's locked. We need to find an alternative."
"But the nearest one is through the dining room and through the courtyard!" Will whispered. Footsteps were hurriedly coming down the stairs. The maid was right above us. Will threw Jack into the wall, we threw our bags in a pile, and the four of us leaned into the shadows to hide. Jack pressed us against the bags more as Will went out beside the broken vase.
"Mr. Turner!" the maid said, coming down the stairs and rushing over to him. "What are you doing up at this hour? You and Elizabeth both weren't in your room!"
"It's fine, Estella," Will said. "Arielle woke up, and we went to see her. I ran down here to find something for Arielle to eat and bumped over the vase." Will started to pick up the shards of the vase with Estella. My heart was pounding... I know we're gonna be caught...
"Well, Mr. Turner, I'll fetch something for Arielle," Estella said. "You and your missus get back to bed and get some sleep. I can handle this vase as well."
"Thank you, Estella," Will said. And to our amazement, Estella ran around us and into the next room, and Will motioned us out. We grabbed our things and made a B-line for Will.
"Nice save!" Jessica said.
"How did you do that?" Lindsay asked.
"Estella is a good person," Will said. "Now get to the dining room fast! I'll meet you in a little bit on board. Jack, get them to the Meridian," Will said. "Now go!" We ran past Will as quiet as possible whispering our thanks. That was so cool...
SLAM!
"Jack!" I said. He had stopped dead and we ran into him.
"What's the hold up?" Jessica asked.
"I forget which is the dining room..." Jack said.
"Dining room? That way!" I said, pointing to the door in front of us. You see, us crazed fans watch the movie... Well, Jack's really never been in the Governor's house that we've seen or heard of, so go figure. We ran into the dining room and stopped again.
"Courtyard... Where's the courtyard?" Lindsay asked. We were kind of panicking...
"There wasn't one in the movie!" I said.
"Movies lie!" Jessica said. "Let's find another way!" We saw the closet Elizabeth took refuge in in the movie, the rug that was overturned, how cool! It's like taking a tour! Well, what you didn't see in the movie was the door at the end of the room! So, we went through that next. And guess where we are?
"Whoa..." I said.
"This is awesome..." Jessica said with a smile. It was a small recreation room! There was a huge piano in the corner I was tempted to play; more tables with more flowers, and lots of beautiful candelabras Will could break out of sheer curiosity. It wasn't all that big, but it was bigger than the dining room for sure.
"So now where?" Jack asked.
"You're asking us?!" Jessica asked.
"Well ye're doin' good so far!" Jack said. "Now where?" Ugh... us girls gotta do everything... we looked around and saw three doors. The one we just came from, but the other two? One was just a plain wooden door, and the other was glass with moonlight coming through it. Lindsay and I started for the glass door. It must lead to the courtyard...
"Where are you going?" Jessica asked.
"To the courtyard!" Lindsay said. "Come on!" Jack and Jessica waddled over to us from the bags they carried, and Lindsay and I opened the glass door. There was a breeze blowing the drapes around us, and Lindsay and Jessica ran outside. Jack, who was carrying the bags Will had abandoned, was stuck and couldn't get through the door.
"Suck it in, Jack!" I said, pushing him.
"There's no suckin' happenin'!" Jack said. "I can't get through!"
"So take off the bags and throw them out here!" Jessica said.
"Good idea, Stewy," Lindsay said.
"Thanks!" Jessica replied. So, Jack started stripping himself free off the bags we had forced on him, and I started throwing them out into the courtyard at Jess and Lindz.
"Now go!" I said as I tossed the last bag out. I dashed out after him onto the cobblestone patio. Jack to the heaviest of each of out bags and we carried our own as we ran low through the gardens.
"We're never gonna find the docks!" Lindsay said after a few minutes.
"Patience, luv," Jack said. "The path's comin' out here somewhere..." After a minute we were out of the gardens and at the stables.
"Look at those horses!" Lindsay said. "They're lovely!"
"Yes, yes, very beautiful..." Jack said. "We've got a ship to find! Shove off!" he yelled. We headed past the stables and the carriages on a dirt path. The moon gave us light to guide us around the house and to the front gate.
"How are we gonna get over that?" I asked.
"We're pirates!" Jack said. "We'll find a way!"
"Yo ho!" Jessica said cheerfully. I smiled and we dropped the bags. Jack started throwing them over the fence and into some bushes.
"Find us a way through, Jane," Jack said to Lindsay.
"Me?!" Lindsay asked.
"C'mon, Bloody Jane!" I said, clapping her on the back. "Find us a way over, under, around, though the gate!" So, Lindsay got up to the gate and tried to squeeze through, but the bars were too small.
"I think Stewy can get through that way, seeing as she's the smallest," Lindsay said. "But Erica, Jack, and me can't." With that, Jessica walked up to the gate and held her breath as she struggled to get through the bars.
"I'm stuck!" Jessica said. "Linkin! Ravii! JACK!"
"Shut up, lass!" Jack said. "What happened?"
"I'm stuck! What's it look like?!"
"Calm down, Mary..."
"CALM DOWN?!?!?!"
"Jess, chill!" I whispered. "We'll get over to the other side and help you through, ok?" Jessica was all twisty and stuff around the bars of the gate, but she managed to nod. I looked back at the house that had a few dimly lit windows, including the one Elizabeth, Arielle, and now the maid Estella were in on the top floor in the corner.
"Jack! You threw over all the bags?" Lindsay asked in what sounded like hysterics.
"Aye," Jack said. "Problem?"
"Yes!" Lindsay said. "We could've piled them up and climbed over!"
"Or Jack could just throw us over..." I suggested.
"Ok!" Lindsay said. "Launch me over, Jack!"
"Er... all right," Jack said. It was messy to see how Lindsay finally got this to work, but they were finally steady after a second or two.
"Ok!" Lindsay said excitedly. "Three, two, one –"
"BLAST OFF!" I yelled. Hey, I may have been risking us being captured, but I couldn't help it... I'm sure you've had it happen to you! With that, Lindsay went soaring over the fence, but not by much... wait... never mind... Lindsay was dangling from the fence by the hood on her hoodie.
"Now I'm stuck!" Lindsay said.
"Ha ha!" Jessica laughed up at her.
"Shut up, Stewy," Lindsay said. I couldn't help to laugh. "You too, Ravii!"
"What?" I asked.
"Get me down!" Lindsay yelled.
"Get yourself down!" I said. "Just slip out of the hoodie!" Lindsay stopped struggling for a second to consider, then she nodded at my suggestion. She started to wriggle out of her hoodie, and then she fell to the ground. Her hoodie was still caught on top of the gate, but we'll get it...
"Ha! It worked!" she said, getting up. "Thanks, Erica."
"No biggie," I said. "Try to get Jessica out of the gate!" I stepped up to Jack, and he hoisted me onto his shoulders.
"I hope ye fly better than Jane," Jack said.
"Me too," I said quietly as Jack attached something to me. "What are you doing?" I asked.
"Tyin' rope to ye," Jack said. "Ye'll go over, and then ye can pull me over with this." When he was done, I steadied myself and was flying over the gate. I didn't hit the gate like Lindsay, but landed face first into the bushes. I spat out a mouthful of dirt and leaves and got to my feet. Lindsay wasn't doing to good with Jessica as I stepped onto the path and untied the rope from my waist.
"Lindz! Help me get Jack over quick," I said. Lindsay left Stewy in the gate and ran over to help me pull the rope so Jack could get over.
"What about me?!" Jessica asked.
"Chill out!" I said again. "Jack can help us get you out when we pull him over!" Jessica shut up and sighed. Lindsay stepped in front of me and we gave the rope a hard tug...
"ARGH!" Jack bellowed. He flew over the gate with the greatest of ease, and landed hard onto the dirt path face first. He was motionless.
"You ok? "I asked as Lindsay and I ran up to him. Jack sat up holding his hat to his head. "Please don't tell me he has amnesia again..."
"Well if he does, we know how to cure it," Lindsay said. I smiled. Good Ol' Robbie...
"Jack?" I asked quietly.
"Huh?" he asked.
"You ok?"
"Peachy, Grace..." Jack muttered. "I'll be fine... get yer stuff and let's get to the ship..."
"What about me?!" Jessica yelled.
"Yeah, Jack," Lindsay, said. "We gotta get Stewy!"
"Yeah!" Jessica said. "Help poor Stewy out over here!" Jack was still dizzy from his hard landing (I was, too...), but he staggered over to Jessica. Lindsay and I watched him.
"How'd this happen?" Jack asked.
SMACK!
"C'mon, Jack! Get me out!" Jessica said. Jack was back to his senses... Jessica sure has a way of curing people... Jack shook his head a moment and blinked at Jessica. "Well?!" she asked.
"C'mon, Mary!" Jack said. "Give me your arm!" Jessica extended her arm, and Jack took it. Lindsay and I grabbed it, too, and we gave a hard tug.
CRACK!
"My ARM!" Jessica screamed. "You trying to break it?!"
"Come on, Jess!" I said. "It's not that easy!"
"Well make it easy!" Jessica yelled.
"Will you stop screaming?!" Lindsay said.
"WANNA MAKE ME?!?!" Jessica bellowed.
"Both of you shut it!" I said.
"Erica! Get me out..." Jessica moaned.
"We're trying, Stewy," I said. "Just cooperate, ok?" Jessica nodded, and we tried another approach. Lindsay and I got behind Jack and pulled this time. Not working...
"OWW!!!" Jessica screamed.
"That's it..." Jack said. He took the sweatband off of her wrist and stuffed it in her mouth. Jack gave Lindsay and me a satisfied smile. "That outta hold ye," Jack said. "Ye always did have a big mouth, Mary..." Jack grabbed her arm again and tugged harder still, and Jessica screamed even louder even with the sweatband in her mouth.
"Jack!" Lindsay said. "Let's try something else..."
"What do ye suggest?" Jack asked, dropping Jessica's arm.
"Coconut oil?" I said. "It'll make her slippery..."
"You have coconut oil in your bags?" Lindsay asked.
"No..."
"So why go there?!"
"Because it works on Gilligan's Island!"
"This isn't Gilligan's Island!"
"So?!"
"So!... so... ah! Just think of something else!" Lindsay said. Jessica tried to say something through her sweatband, but we couldn't make it out. Jack walked up to her.
"If I take this out, ye'll be quiet?" he asked her. Jessica nodded, and Jack ripped the sweatband out of her mouth and threw it on the ground. "What's yer idea, luv?" he asked.
"Instead of trying to detach my arm, how about the lotion I brought?" Jessica suggested. "It's in my red and green bag there... Jergen's Coconut Lotion for Dry Skin!" Lindsay and I threw aside our bags before finding Jessica's biggest bag. We rummaged through the bag and found it.
"Got it," I said. "Now what?"
"Put it on me! Duh!" Jessica said. We started to dump the lotion onto her, and she emitted screams of "That's cold!" and "Wowee!" and junk... When she was finally covered in coconut lotion, she smelled good, looked horrible, and was still not budging.
"Dump some water on her!" Lindsay said. I went over to my book bag and took the red water bottle I had clipped onto it off, and unscrewed the lid. I threw it on Jessica, and she sputtered and coughed.
"Thanks, Ravii..." she said.
"No prob," I said with a smile. Jack and Lindsay took her by the shoulders and shook her, and with a few more shakes, Jessica fell to the ground. She sat up wheezing, covered in lotion, water, and one side of her covered in dirt.
"Come on!" Jack said. "Let's get a move on!" We grabbed up the bags, Jessica's sweatband, and Lindsay's hoodie off the gate, and ran down the street. Jack suddenly turned down the alley and we came to a door. Jack opened it and we dashed inside.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"Blacksmith's shop," Jack said. "Gotta have me things like ye do. Just a quick stop. We'll be five minutes if that."
