Disclaimer: I don't own PotC, totally unfair. I do own Nakada and that evil gypsy woman though. And Jack is living in my wardrobe… the lawyers just don't know it yet!


Two weeks later, The Black Pearl was sailing for Tortuga, the one place Jack felt they could find the where-abouts of the gypsy. Jack himself was standing at the helm, smiling down at the deck. Nakada sat on a barrel by the main mast. Her stomach was still heavily bandaged and Jack had forbidden her from doing any hard labour. Nakada was content in working on the ropes at the bottom of the rigging and her happiness of working on the Pearl again was infectious. None of the crew could be seen unhappy and the musicians aboard: two fiddlers and a piper, had set up a lively beat to keep the crew's morale high. Yet Jack knew his daughter was still troubled, the burn scars on her back, along with the gunshot wound to her stomach would serve as a constant reminder to what had happened to her.

Jack sighed and looked at his finger, where a small scar was already forming. Keeping Nakada safe from anybody the gypsy may have talked to would be hard, but Jack would do all he could, even if it killed him.
"Hey Jack! Watcha looking at?" Nakada asked cheerfully as she walked over to her father, he pushed his thoughts out of his head and turned to face her.
"You lass. You look just like me and your ma, have the men queuing up before too long." Nakada pulled a disgusted face as she stepped up beside her father
"I aint having no men after me Jack." She said, scowling "Can't stand them. Stuck up pansies who turned up on the Tarrow's doorstep." Jack laughed
"You aint going near any man like that unless you're pirating off him lass." He laughed

"How long until we reach Tortuga?" Nakada asked quietly, turning serious
"Four days luv." Jack replied, equally as quiet "Nervous?" Nakada rolled her eyes and leant against her father
"Jack, the last time I went to Tortuga I was kidnapped. Remember? Nervous could hardly cover what I'm going through now." Jack put an arm around Nakada's shoulder, keeping the other on the helm.
"I suppose you have a point there luv." He replied "I aint gonna let them kidnap you again." Nakada smiled her thanks and stared out across the deck.

"We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs" she sang softly before looking up at Jack and smiling
"Drink up me hearties, yo ho." They sang together before turning to the ocean

THE END


To My Reviewers:

Jinxeh: Yay for theories! I found a fairly good picture of me in my files the other day. Bad plot bunnies! Fire-pokers and rum are much better! Review!

Tinkthefairy: Yes There is a sequel! You're not the last to find out, honest! And yes! This was the last chapter… it makes me sad to think about that. All my chapters are short! You should know that by now! The blood packed thing was pretty creepy but what oh well. I will save Nakada from calling Jack 'Dad' until the sequel, don't worry! I like your idea of waiting until just before she gets into big trouble. It's sweet. Jack is my Hubby! Death to Evil Gypsy Woman! I think you're the one in Denial! He loves me! ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME. HE SAID HE DOESN'T LOVE YOU, HE LOVES ME! HE DID A BLOOD PACT ON IT, AND SEALED THAT WITH A BLODD PACT, AND SEALED THAT WITH A BLOOD PACT, AND THEN COLLAPSED FROM TOO MUCH BLOOD LOSS, THEN SEALED IT ALL WITH A BOTTLE OF RUM WHEN HE CAME ROUND! HE'S SITTING HERE RIGHT NOW TELLING ME HE LOVES ME!(I'm going to miss this argument, at least until the sequel comes up!) Review!

Daftlilme: The last chapter is up! The sequel… you'll have to wait a bit coz I'm a lovely person who makes you wait! Force never works! (Unless you threaten me with fire pokers or the death of Johnny Depp) Not the puppy dog eyes! I'm being taken over by the cuteness! Nooooo! Review!

Blairwitch: Human blood was a bit gross. Mikki would love it, if it wasn't for the fact Jack Sparrow was in it! Review!

Windvuur: Sequel is coming soon! Stopping the eye thing… until some other part of my story I think is totally rubbish appears! The sequel is going to be called…? Haha! I'm not going to say on this page! Review!
