Pirates of the Caribbean

Chapter 3

"Are you sure you know what you're doing?" Jack asked Cecilia gently.

"Yeah, I learned from you." She pointed out, shaking her head slightly.

"Now, that's where you want to park the ship." He pointed toward the little town ahead of them. Cecilia quickly swerved the boat.

"Okay, now, time to dock up."

Samantha clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth softly. The horse she was side saddled upon darted forth, leaving Samuel and his elegant bay thoroughbred stallion in the dust. Samantha giggled, and tossed her head. Her ferociously bouncy brunette ringlets sprung like springs. She patted her white Arabian mare softly, as people stared at her.

However, Samuel wanted to be the center of attention too, so he came along, his trimmed, but shaggy brunette hair billowing in the breeze. He smiled, laughing. "Beatcha." He laughed gently. Soon, the horses' hooves tapped against the cobblestone, as a signal that they were officially entered into the town. The town was beautiful, and very small for a town. The streets were cobblestone, and buildings hugged the rims of the streets. People of many different origins scurried about this town.

Samantha glanced at some people selling flowers. "Wait a moment, Samuel." She halted her horse and slid off, tying the horse up slowly.

"What? Flowers! It's mom and dad's 15th anniversary, isn't it?" He asked, obviously surprised. "I didn't see it coming." He mumbled.

Samantha approached the man that was tending to the flowers. The partially bald old man gave Samantha a warm smile. His clothes were raggedy, because he wasn't very wealthy. Pants hung over his boots, and simply a vest hugged his body.

"Good morning, Miss Turner." He bowed to her, and she giggled, flattered.

"Good morning, Mister Tom. I'd like a dozen roses please." She smiled at him. He handed her the flowers and in return, he received money. Suddenly… all was silent.

Hooves thundered in the distance. A gunshot was fired into the sky, as an old fat lady scurried down the hill. "Sparrow's back! With Cecilia!"
