Disclaimer, I solemnly swear on pain of death that I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean. But Emy is definatly my character.
Ch. 7. New Plans on that horizon
Jack and Emy returned only to find the crew passed out from partying. They made their way to the captain's quarter's. Emy took her place on Jack's bed and Jack himself relaxed himself in his own chair. A new adventure finally awaited him and the Pearl.
"Jack. Jack. JACK SPARROW WOULD YOU WAKE UP! WE HAVE TO GO TO PORT ROYAL TODAY!" Elizabeth screamed into Jack's sleeping face. He looked up at her then frowned.
"Do ye realize what time it is women? I had a late night." Jack replied putting his hat back over his eyes.
"Oh, I understand Jack. You and Emy had a celebration of your own I see." Elizabeth laughed.
"Well, If ye want to put it that way I suppose," Jack was cut off by a resounding slap. He once again took the hat off his eyes to see a very angry Emy staring down at him. He gave a gruff sigh and got to his feet to get the crew moving them to Tortuga.
Emy climbed the mast of the ship, making her way to the crows nest. 'I can't believe I finally got hold of it. This is what I've been waiting for all me life.' Emy had traded her usual skirt for black leggings in order for easier movemen't throughout the day. She had a feeling there was a lot in store.
Jack looked up and watched Emy standing in the crow's nest. The wind blowing through her long brown hair. He had a feeling that Emy was going to be something special to him. Of course she had thwarted his attempts several times already. Jack nodded to Ana Maria to take the helm as he strolled away. He then made his way and climbed up to the crows nest.
"Beautiful, isn't it." Jack stated as he stood behind Emy. She nodded her head but remained silent. Jack moved closer, placing his hand upon hers.
"I never thought it would be mine Jack." Emy said, leaning forward into the wind. " The treasure me mother told me about, the Jewel will be mine."
"So what's the story behind this Jewel?" Jack asked, Emy had pulled her hand away from his. He now moved beside her to watch her more closely.
"Me dear ol' mum, god rest her, told me the story when I was still young." Emy said. "She told me of a jewel of such beauty and worth that many were corrupted by the thought of it. The jewel is said to lie in a cave off a coast not far from Port Royal. Unfortunately no one has ever been able to find the entrance." Jack shifted slightely as she told him of the jewel. She acted so much as he did when looking to find some treasure or another.
"May I offer ye assitance in your grand endevor? Ye would 'ave use of the Pearl and it's crew. Not to mention the best captain around." Jack smiled at the last part of this statement.
"I would love that Jack. It's thrilling enough just te be aboard the black Pearl, but to be searching fer me treasure on it as well? Now that's an honer." Jack gaver her a dirty look."And then there's the pleasure of sailin' with ye Jack." Emy smiled and winked at him. Jack was slightly surprised when Emy gave him a small hug, then made her way back down to the deck. After a moment of reveling in the sea breeze, Jack followed Emy back down.
Elizabeth and Will were waiting for Jack when he returned to the deck. Will moved forward to talk to Jack. "I have some news Jack. Elizabeth and I decided it best not to return to Port Royal at the moment."
"Well mate, ye could always join me and Emy for some treasure huntin' now couldn't ye." Jack smiled. Will nodded in appreciation, then returned to Elizabeth to let her know they were staying on. Emy walked up to Jack.
"If I may inquire, my captain, why are you so 'appy?" She asked.
"I've got me best mate back. This crew is finally coming together Emy." He turned and placed a hand on her shoulder before walking back to the helm. Emy just knew something big was going to happen today.
