'Ello! Guess what, everyone?! This story has a plot now!!! YAY! I don't have much to ramble about now, so I'll get to the shout outs...
Smiley Cad: It's my dear friend, Cad! 'Ello, Cad... heh, don't kill me! You remember what happened in Egypt, and if you kill me again that means I'm stuck with you for DOUBLE eternity! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Oh, crap. Jack got hold of my maniacal laughing machine again...
Wenamedthemonkeyjack: I'm glad it was interesting. I don't usually like explanation chapters either and I end up just skimming 'em most of the time, LOL.
Ev1lSandwh1ch: Wow. You have no idea how much that meant to me when you said I had Jack's character down well. The one thing I can't stand about other stories is when they have too much out of character moments, so I am trying SO hard to keep Jack acting like Jack! THANK YOU!
Capnjacks-luckylady: Like I said above in Ev1lSandwh1ch's shout out, I am overjoyed that you think I am portraying the characters well! THANX!!! Do me a favor and correct me if they are getting too OOC!
Piratechic(who isn't me, but my friend, Catiebell who was using my account): It is so like you to be cheering for the deranged fairies! Sometimes I wonder what life would be like without you psychotic friends of mine...
On with the story now!
Last chapter: Jack slowly made his way back inside the Turner's house, but quickly hid in a bush when he heard a very unwelcoming voice.
"Hello Elizabeth, Mr. Turner." Commodore Norrington said as they opened the door, "forgive my intrusion, but as you might know, my mother's birthday is coming up this Friday and I came to personally invite you to her birthday celebration."
"Oh my! Is it her birthday already? How old is she turning again?" Elizabeth asked.
Norrington looked slightly offended and said, "Well I'm not sure how old she is. I do not find it polite to ask a lady her age."
"Of course, forgive me." Elizabeth replied politely as Jack rolled his eyes.
"Don't fret. Will you come to the ball held in her honor? Tomorrow, at six o'clock there will be-"Norrington stopped abruptly and Jack tried to quietly worm his way through the bushes to see what made the Commodore stop.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Did I interrupt something? I'll go upstairs till-"Jack heard the musical voice of Mary Ann float out to him.
"Oh, no! Stay, please! I'm Commodore Norrington, and you are..." Jack couldn't take it any more and stuck his head out of the bottom of the bushes, now completely laying on the ground. He saw Commodore Norrington kiss Mary Ann's hand as she told him her name.
"It's a pleasure to meet you." Norrington replied in what he hoped was a suave voice. Jack shuddered as Mary Ann smiled politely at Norrington. Who in their right mind would like that pigheaded eunuch? No one should be interested in someone like that.
"Are you staying here on vacation? With your husband perhaps?" Commodore asked as Jack angrily swatted a bush branch out of his ear.
"Oh, no. I'm not married. I'm just visiting Will and Elizabeth for a bit" Mary Ann said and Norrington beamed.
"Oh, well, in that case, would you like to come to the ball too?" He asked Mary Ann.
"Of course. We all will. Thank you for stopping by, Commodore." Elizabeth said quickly and waved her hand in a shooing motion at the bush where she had just noticed Jack leaning out of.
"Alright, good day." He replied and turned around right as Jack ducked back into the bushes.
Jack smirked and right when Norrington passed Jack's bush, Jack threw a rock at his head. Norrington turned sharply when the pebble smacked him square in the scull, but didn't see anyone so he continued on his way, mumbling to himself.
As soon as he was gone, Elizabeth yanked Jack out of the bushes and into the house.
"WHAT WERE YOU DOING OUT THERE?? NORRINGTON COULD HAVE EASILY SEEN YOU AND YOU COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!" She said angrily.
"I was jus' admirin' yer lovely bushes, tha's all. Honestly, yer clearly over-reacting." Jack replied smoothly. Elizabeth just glared and stormed upstairs.
"So, Jack. Have you thought about bringing Mary Ann aboard The Pearl?" Will asked casually, sideling up next to Jack.
Jack sighed and replied with obvious irritation in his voice, "I'll let 'er stay fer a bit, bu' I'm no' intendin' ta babysit the lass forever, savvy?"
Around noon the next day
Mary Ann had spent most of her stay so far at the Turner (AN: see, Nicole! I remembered it was Turner! Go me!) home talking to Elizabeth (for such a small woman, she sure had a big mouth! She hardly let Mary Ann slip a word in) and playing with Claire and Peter. She had steered clear of Jack Sparrow because she didn't exactly feel comfortable in his presence. She wasn't afraid of him, but from what she saw, their personalities clashed horribly and it left nothing but awkwardness around them.
She was currently on the balcony with Peter and Claire, animatedly telling them a story about knights and dragons, acting out the parts and adding said children into the story. Little did she know, Jack and Will were watching from a neighboring balcony with amusement.
Jack was impressed. He had never seen someone of high society act the humble way Mary Ann was acting right now. She had changed out of her elegant apparel and was in a simple blue dress. She had chucked the crown and her hair was swinging freely around her shoulders. She had a very active imagination and was acting more like a crazy six year old than the 175 years (she was 25 when she was turned into a frog, so that's how old she looks) she'd been around.
She was sword fighting an invisible opponent when Elizabeth swept into the room and shouted, "What are you doing? We have to get ready for the ball!"
"What?! We still have six hours!" Mary Ann said.
"We need to pick out what you're going to wear and we need to do your hair and... oh lord, just come here!" Elizabeth said and dragged Mary Ann into her room.
Jack turned to Will and shook his head, "Poor girl. With 'er intelligence level, I doubt she'll be able to make it ou' alive after bein' in there with tha' quick witted woman fer six hours."
"Jack, I'm sure Mary Ann is much more insightful than she seems." Will replied.
"I was talkin' abou' yer wife, mate." Jack replied with a smirk.
How was it? The next chapter will be MUCH more eventful and than I can really kick off the plot, alrighty? Now, if you liked it, REVIEW and tell a friend about it. If you didn't like it, REVIEW and tell an enemy about it so they'll be stuck wasting their time reading this piece of crap like you! So, either way, REVIEW!
Question: Are there any Elizabeth fans out there???
Smiley Cad: It's my dear friend, Cad! 'Ello, Cad... heh, don't kill me! You remember what happened in Egypt, and if you kill me again that means I'm stuck with you for DOUBLE eternity! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Oh, crap. Jack got hold of my maniacal laughing machine again...
