The Fan Fic
Once upon a time, there lived Cherice and Melissa. They had both seen Pirates of the Caribbean and loved it. Cherice loved Will Turner and Melissa loved Jack Sparrow. So together they sat down to write this fan fic. They each had their own ideas of what to write about. But Cherice is typing…. Soooooooooooooo…. Yeah. Lol. Anyway, back to the story. So one day they went back to see it again. And little do they know, that their obsessions would turn into reality. And so with a swirl of blue light they were transported into the time of the Pirates of the Caribbean….
"Whoa. Pirates." "No shit Sherlock a.k.a. Cherice." "Ahoy there!" Yelled someone. They turned… slowly…cautiously… "Arrgh matey, man over board!" Suddenly they realized they were floating on a piece of wood. "Uhhhh that's WOMEN overboard to you, pirate!" They both yelled back up. "Arrgh so we got ourselves two little lasses. Arrgh! What should we do with 'em cap'n?" And then there he was…Captain Jack Sparrow. "Bring 'em up, savvy?" And then the "Arrgh" pirate yelled, "Women overboard! Get the lifeboats! Arrgh!" Then the lifeboat was lowered, and the two girls climbed aboard. :::writers block::: … lol.
"Welcome aboard! I'm Captain Jack Sparrow, some may argue about the 'captain' part, but eh, oh well. This is my ship, the Black Pearl. Maybe you've heard of it, maybe not. Well, make yourselves at home. Feel free to look around." "I know who you are!!!" Melissa yelled. "I've heard all the stories, I even saw the movie!" "Right. Well, That would be Melissa, I'm Cherice." She stuck out her hand for a friendly handshake. "No takers. Right then, I'll be this way if anyone cares. Which no one does." Then…..Cherice………caught sight of Will. "Uh, stupid Elizabeth is with him. There'll be no living with her…but what to do about her…push her overboard? Nah, Will would hate me. Unless he didn't know it was me…no but then he'd have a broken heart…" And her thoughts rambled on until Will noticed her and came up and started talking. "Hello? Are you deaf or something?" He waved a hand in front of her face. "Eh? Oh hello." Not knowing what to say Cherice shut up. "Hi, I'm Will. Will Turner that is." "Hi…" Her voice trailed off at the thought of actually talking to her. Then Melissa came up and disrupted the moment. "Hi-ya! I'm Melissa!" She looked around. "Do you know where I can get some food?" "Oh brother. Ignore her. She's always hungry. She really only needs to eat 3 times a day, but she sure could fool anyone who doesn't know." Will laughed. "I'm Cherice by the way." She smiled.
So Cherice was obviously in heaven and there went Melissa, looking for Jack. Whoops, I mean CAPTAIN Jack. "Ohhh, Jaaaaaaaaaaack! Where are you?" She paused for a moment. "Marco?" Expecting a 'polo' back, she was slightly disappointed when she got no response. She was getting mad. "Marco! Marco, dammit!" Oh well. When she realized there was no hope, she went off in search of something to eat.

Meanwhile, below deck…
"So," Captain Jack Sparrow said, looking at his crew. "What are we to do with the girls?" There was a long silence until his first mate Briggs said, "Well, we should let them off at the next port. After all, it is bad luck to have a woman on board." He was hit upside the head by Anna Maria. "Stupid. I am a woman." Captain Jack shook his head absentmindedly. "Well, we consider you more of a man, anyway." That was, needless to say, the wrong thing to tell her, *smack* she slapped him right across his face. "Wow, ok. So about these two girls. We could make them part of the crew. OR, they seem 20 or so, who wants a wife?" Anna Maria stood up for them. "You pigs! Leave them alone! They'll sleep in the same room as me and Elizabeth, that way there is no battle of the sexes!" Captain Jack looked at her in disappointment. "Fine, have it your way. It's not my fault I was left on an island all by my lonely perverted self." "Well we could stay away from them but who's to say they won't stay away from us?" One pirate yelled. A roar of laughter arose. "THAT'S ENOUGH!" Screamed Anna Maria. "My decision is final, you won't screw it up, and if you do… there'll be serious trouble!" And with that she left in disgust.
Above Deck.
Cherice was hitting on Will…when Elizabeth came along. "Ahem." She cleared her throat in that way that people that are starved for attention do. "AHEM!" Cherice and Will stopped looking at each other. "So you must be what the pirates brought aboard." She looked at her from head to toe…. And didn't like what she saw. Will did, though he would never tell anyone. "Hi. You must be Elizabeth. Nice to meet you. My name's Cherice." Once again she held out her hand for a handshake. Elizabeth took it, squeezing it rather hard. "So, I see that you have met my fiancé?" Will thought to himself, "fiancé? I haven't proposed to her…" "Yes, I have. I don't want to disrupt anything between you two though, so I'll just be on my merry little way." Will thought to himself "No, stay…" But he didn't say it aloud. "That's good," Elizabeth said, looking at her again. "Well, I guess I'll see you at dinner. Buh-Bye!" And she left. Not moments later, Melissa appeared. "Have any of you two seen Jack? I've been looking for him since I got here. Haven't quite found him yet…" Elizabeth chimed in, "I think he's downstairs with the crew. I wouldn't go down there just yet. I think they're discussing what to do with you and the other one. Have fun looking around the ship though, it's quite interesting. Now if you could excuse us….." But Melissa was already on her way to the stairs, a happy little grin on her face. "Thanks! Bye!" "They both have a knack for curiosity I'll give them that." Will said chuckling. Elizabeth rolled her eyes.

Below Deck… again.
"Ah and here's one of 'em!" Melissa was walking down the stairs, the small grin still on her face. "Oh. Hello there." She realized that she was the only woman there. "Arrgh, fresh bait!" "Shut up you dirty… thing." Captain Jack stood up for her. "Oh! Hello, Jack!" She decided not to add the Marco Polo thing in the conversation. "Good day, poppet. Have you looked around yet?" "A little. It's amazing." Jack smiled showing his gold teeth. "Ahem, crew." He looked at them as if to say, "Leave us alone!" They got the message and got out of the room. "So," he said, after a moment. "How did you get to be on a piece of driftwood? Not a crash, I hope?" "Oh, no, no, of course not! We just jumped into a movie and landed here. Nothing that amazing, I must say." "A movie?" "Nevermind. All you need to know is that, we're here, by a miracle actually and now I'm sitting here in this finely crafted chair talking to the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. So, tell me about yourself." Jack puffed out his chest. "Well, I am a captain. Of a ship. Named the Black Pearl, so the big Bold letters on the side of the ship that say that makes a lot of sense." Melissa nodded her head, smiling. "Oh, yes. The big bold letters DO make a lot of sense." So the conversation dragged on, mainly of not a lot. After a little while, a bell sounded, and Jack stood up again. "Well, there's dinner. We should go up now." So up they went. The crew standing at the top of the stairs, looking at Jack with envy. "What, we didn't do anything!" He yelled back. Melissa, so oblivious, didn't even notice the crew. "Yea! We just talked, and, er…. Stuff."

At dinner…
Everyone, even Melissa and Cherice sat around a very large table. "Typical pirates…" Melissa thought to herself as she watched them all eat. It was really rather a disgusting sight. There was a lot of discussion and yelling around the dinner table and Elizabeth seemed to be the only quiet one. Cherice, being her usual chatterbox self fit right into the conversations. "Ha! You have to be joking, you can't honestly believe in 'curses' and stuff. That only happens in stories!" "Ah you see but that's where you're wrong, this is only one big story, with things happening out of nowhere. Take me for an example! One minute I think I'm mortal the next I'm shoved into the moonlight and I'm nothing but bones!" Jack argued with a laugh. And dinner lagged on, and every time someone looked at Will, Elizabeth grew even more bitter and jealous. Consumed in envy Elizabeth ran off to her room.
"No one can have Will. He's mine! He fought his hardest for me, why would he be looking at her like that? Ugh, she's such a pig! What was with her clothes! Talk about ugly." So in all her bitterness she locked herself up in her thoughts. Unaware of her surroundings, she didn't even notice Will was standing right over her. So he sat down next to her as she was curled up in a corner of her room. He sat there for a while until she took notice of him. She didn't say anything; she just leaned in and kissed him. He didn't back away, but something made her know that he was slipping through the cracks in her fingers, which was all fine and dandy with Cherice, after all, she was obsessed with him and the more she got to know him the more she liked him. "What was that for?" Will asked a little startled. "I want to know that you are only mine, and no one can get in the way of what we have." There was an unnerving silence. "Elizabeth, I love you." Her eyes brightened up a little. She kissed him again and she leaned against his strong muscular chest and he put his arms around her. And so they sat, wrapped up in each others embrace.

Later that night…
As Jack sat in his special chair he wrote in his journal (yes his JOURNAL).
Day 84 of the Black Pearl Adventure:
Some of the crew found two young women floating on a piece of wood, not bad looking I must say. The one with blonde hair is looking pretty damn fine to me right about now… Though the one with the dark red hair seems to have a thing for Will… eh oh well. Guess I'll have to remind Will about the previous adventure trying to rescue his bonnie lass Elizabeth… but anyway. It's been a very tiring day, especially with Anna Maria around. Me and the rest of the crew were deciding what to do with them when I made a joke about them… Anna Maria got pretty mad and slapped me across the face… again. I really should get used to that by now. Eh oh well. I think its just about time for me to get some rest… tomorrow is going to be another crazy day.
-CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow. (yes don't forget I'm the captain.)
In Elizabeth, Anna Maria, Melissa and Cherice's room…
Day 84 of this madness:
Found 2 stupid girls on a piece of wood. Should have just left them there. It probably would have been so much easier. The one has a thing for Will, I really won't permit this…especially all we've been through together. Well not much else to say so I guess it's time for me to turn in for the night.
-Elizabeth Swann-Turner. (Turner… I can only hope…)
Will's room-
Day 84 of my pirate escapade:
Still unsure of how Jack manages to get us places with a compass that doesn't point north, he has a way of that kind of stuff you know. We found two women on a piece of wood just floating along on the sea. A blonde and well…guess it's hard to describe her hair color. It's like the color of black cherries, but bring her into the light and her hair is set ablaze. The color of crimson fire, a sunset on a hot summer day. It's really quite a sight I must say. I fear we have too much chemistry together for our own good though. She's been all I can think about, I can't stand thinking of anyone else…not even Elizabeth. I don't know what to do. I thought I had fallen in love with Elizabeth but then along arrives this other woman, a fine woman indeed. Well I really think I should sleep on this and see what happens tomorrow. 'Night.
-Will Turner
The next day
"Good morning everyone!" Jack yelled trying to wake up the rest of the crew with his usual sarcastic enthusiasm. "Rise and shine open the curtains!" No one moved. "Guess I have to do this the hard way." He walked over to the windows, pulled the curtains off and the sun came shining through like there was no tomorrow. A few tired men stirred. Still, none woke up. "Fine then. Off to the others!" He moved quickly down to Will's room. He knocked on the door. "Knock, knock! Is little Will up yet?" Long silence. "Hmm, take that as a no." He bursted through the door and shook Will hard along the shoulders. "Wake up! We've got a big day ahead of us." Will grunted. "Why is it that I'm the only one who can wake up this early in the morning? For pity's sake people." "I blame the rum." Said a voice from the doorway. "Ah, fine morning isn't it Elizabeth?" "Yes, indeed it is. I do suppose you'll let me do the honors of waking Will up though." "Of course. He's all yours…" His voice trailed off as he remembered how Cherice and Will had gotten along so well. "Carry on, I'll be waking the others." And Jack left. Elizabeth walked slowly over to the side of Will's bed. "Good morning, Will." Will opened his eyes to see Elizabeth's face blocking the sunlight so every strand of her golden hair glowed. "Good morning." Will replied.
Meanwhile…. (Melissa typing now)
"Rise and shine, lassies! 'Tis a fine morning." Said Jack as he knocked on the cabin door of Melissa, Cherice and Anna Maria. There was no answer. "Hello! Anybody there?" From deep in the room, he heard a gruff voice answer. "Get away from the door, Jack, or else I'll shoot you through the door." Needless to say, Jack moved away from the door; Anna Maria was very scary in the morning. After a moment, a head stuck out of the door, one with blonde hair and bright blue eyes; It was obviously not Anna Maria. "Sorry," said Melissa, looking over her shoulder. "Anna Maria is, well…. A little crazy in the morning. The sea air seems to do some funky things to her hair, and she has drool on the…." She was cut off by the very Anna Maria that she was talking about, dragging Melissa behind her. "There is nothing wrong with me in the morning," she said stiffly, glaring at him. "And I DO NOT DROOL!" Melissa rolled her eyes. She knew that she did, in fact, drool, for she had the bed right next to her. "Right-o then." She looked from Anna Maria to Jack, all the while wondering how she was going to get out the door. Jack, having seen her problem, stepped out of the way, and said gallantly, "Well, milady. Shall I show you the way to the dinning hall? I think that we will have some good food, for sure." Melissa, being the dumb blonde that she was, tilted her head and said, "Uh…. I had dinner there last night. Why would I need to find the way again? Did it move or something?" "No, it didn't move," he replied, raising an eyebrow. "I was just wondering if you wanted to…" He was cut off by Anna Maria. "You best not be doing what I think you are," she yelled. "Remember our talk yesterday." "You mean the one where you smacked me for no reason?" Replied he. "Yea, that one." Came her voice very far away. Suddenly, just as Jack and Melissa were about to stalk away, Cherice came out of the bedrooms, her hair still perfect from the night before. "Whoa liquid rice man! (actually something she would say in real life…lol) So uh, morning. Have a very pleasant day and I will see you all……….. later. Right now I'm….. Off to see the wizard! The wonderful wizard of the Black Pearl… Ok, I'm done. Bye everyone!" And with that, she walked away into the room that she just came out of, Jack and Melissa staring blankly after her.
Back in the Room of Will… er, Will's room, that is.
"So, Will," Elizabeth said, looking down at him. "How were your dreams? Pleasant I hope?" "Oh, yes," he replied, linking his hands behind his head. "I had some very pleasant ones indeed." Will thought to himself, "Though why that Cherice character was in there instead of Elizabeth is quite odd. But to tell…or not to tell…" Elizabeth looked down at her dearly beloved and sighed, guessing correctly that his thoughts were somewhere else. "We need to talk," she said, sitting up on the bed. "It is something of great importance." :::awkward silence::: "Are you having feelings for Cherice?" :::awkward silence::: Will bit his tongue… really, really hard. In the quietest little voice someone could ever make he replied with, "Yes…" "I KNEW IT! You've had feelings for the little tramp since the day we found her!" "That was only yesterday." "EXACTLY! You've known her for all of a day and a half and you already have feelings for her! You've known me for over eight years!" Elizabeth stormed out of the room slamming the door behind her. "Well that did not go well." Will muttered.
Breakfast
"So then I said to them, 'Let's all go naked and dance in the rain!' And then they made me their chief." Jack said, staring Melissa. "Wow. That is really, really amazing," Melissa replied, awed. "Oh brother," Cherice said, looking at the couple. Will saw this as well, and decided that since Cherice was bored, he would strike up a conversation. "So, have you seen Jack naked yet?" Once this left his mouth, he realized that it was the wrong thing to say, for Cherice looked at him like he was insane. "Uh….. No, I haven't seen Jack naked. Nor do I want to." "Er…," Will said, flustered. "That's good. That's very good." "Will, honey," Elizabeth said, trying to get Will's attention. "Can you pass me the bread?" Seeing as how Will was too caught up in his conversation with Cherice, Jack passed the milk to her, all the while still talking to Melissa. "Well, whatever floats your boat," Melissa said, smiling. "No pun intended." "But what if I want there to be pun?" "What about a bun?" Melissa asked, laughing hysterically at her wanna-be joke. "Uh…." Jack replied. "Right. Whatever you say." "Yes, whatever I do say. Hahahahah." Jack just shook his head at Melissa, wondering how on Earth he could like someone who was so…odd. "Well, mates," the captain said, looking around the table. "We need to get an early start today in order to reach Port Haven ((I honestly don't think that this is a place.)) by tonight. So, every body up and get going!" "Do we have to?" All of them grumbled, shoving food in their faces. Meanwhile, Cherice and Will were still talking. After a moment, Elizabeth was so annoyed, that she poked Will on the shoulder and said, "Will, did you hear what Jack said? You need to get a head start today. So, get up." He didn't. "Oh, fine then. I'll go start the main sails myself." And with that, she got up and left.
