Ok, next chapter. Yes, I'm nearing to the end. I have everything planned out in my head, just not on paper. Also I'm working on an ending, hopefully a good one ... Anyway, I think we should start the next chapter...
Chapter 36
"Why hello Mr. Sparrow, what can I help you with?" Angela poked her head outside and gave a forced smile.
Jack smiled back. "So this is yer place, aye?" Angela let Jack in.
"Actually, no. I only live here. The person who owns the house is that one over there." Angela pointed to Alison.
"That one?" Jack sounded worried.
"Aye, Captain, that one!" Angela beamed proudly. I feel revenge calling my name.
Jack nodded. "I was afraid of that. Then I guess the boys and I won't be staying with ye..."
"Stay with me? Hold on a second,-"
"Great I thought ye'd never ask. Will, Billy, we're stayin' 'ere for the night!"
"Hey, that's not fair!" Alison went over to Jack and kicked him in the ankle.
Jack gave out a really loud yell. Alison giggled seeing how much noise she made.
"What-is-the-name-of-that-demon-child?" Jack managed to hiss out. "And-who-is-she?"
"Why Jack, don't you recognize Alison when you see her? Emma's 'daughter'! The little on who loved your Pearl."
"Excuse me? That is 'little' Alison? How can that be?"
"It's called growing up. She is after all a nine-year-old."
Jack looked shocked and shaken. Innocent Alison was now Demon Child Alison. But then he remembered something.
"Aye then where is my lass, Emma?"
"You can search the whole island and not find her, unless she calls your name...There is your clue. Go find her."
Jack now looked perplexed and a bit frazzled. Unless she calls my name? What the 'ell does that mean?
"I'll be back for dinner later with or without her. And keep that demon child away from my reach. I really don't want to murder a child."
Alison gave an evil grin and giggled. Angela waved. The both had planned what they were doing next, as they watched Jack head off.
Later that day, around dinner time...
Jack, Will, Billy, Alison and Angela sat at the table, quietly, eating. Everyone kept stealing glances at each other.
"So Jack, did you find Emma yet?" Angela looked up from her food and gave Jack a look, as if saying You'd better say something or else...
"Actually, no I didn't. The Amazing, Dashing and Extremely Handsome Captain Jack Sparrow has no idea where to find his lass!"
"Well, you are close, but at the sametime far. Don't give up your seach, or you will live a life of disappointment. What you are looking for might hit you right between the eyes, if you pay enough attention."
Jack looked confused. "Luv, we have to work on your rhyming. But for now, why can't you tell me where she is?"
"You will find out eventually..."
