"Hmm…Banana." I heard Jack murmur in his sleep.
"Banana!" I thought, looking up from the book my father had gave me. It was really early in the morning but no matter what I did, I just couldn't seem to fall asleep. The crew was already on deck working as hard as they could to get us closer to that island. It was amazing how just a few days on this ship could change a person. For once in my life, I felt like I was finally at home. Home is where you feel safe, wanted and secure about yourself, back home, the people just didn't understand me. Father was the only one who ever encouraged me to pursue my dreams and be who I wanted to be.
My mother was there for me also, but not like my father. She was the kind of person you could talk to and trust to keep your secrets, but, you couldn't talk to her about sailing, the navy and pirates. She'd never approve of me knowing all these things and learning everything I had from Captain Hordes. If she had known he had been teaching me about sailing and fencing she would have his head served to her on a silver platter. Then there were my sisters, Piper and Antoinette. Don't even get me started on those two, there only goal in life is to make me miserable but so far they haven't succeeded very much. I'll admit there are times where I'd rather die than be with them two but I stick through it. Besides, what would life be like without me always playing pranks on them two? Deep down, I know they love me and I love them also.
"Get away from me mango." Jack shouted, and turned over to face the wall. I giggled and went back to concentrating on my book.
"That's me pineapple!" I sighed.
"How many bloody fruits do you need?" I hissed, whipping my book at his back. As quick as lightening, he turned around and grabbed the book inches away from hitting his chest.
"I need all the fruits I can get!"
"You also need all the help you can get!" I shouted.
"That is where ye are wrong." Jack argued.
"Don't you remember what I said last night Jack?" I asked, getting out of my seat and heading out the door. Jack just looked at me confused. "I am always right." I gave him a mock salute and went up onto the deck.
"Samantha." Elizabeth smiled. "Good Morning."
"Good Morning to you too. Where is everybody, I could have sworn I heard everyone working out here." I said, looking around. Elizabeth laughed.
"That girl, Annabelle I believe her name is, she made a wonderful breakfast and they all went down there and are currently stuffing themselves." I laughed.
"Liz, I have never seen the sky look so beautiful in my life." I gasped, finally noticing the sunset peering over the icy blue waters. The sky was lit up with all sorts of pastel colours. It looked as though someone had struck there hand, ever so gently, across the sky and made such beautiful patterns with each colour. They swiftly went in their own direction and met together at different ends of the sky. It was remarkable.
"I know, staying on land you don't really get a chance to see the sky so…clearly, but, out here…it's magnificent." Elizabeth sighed, leaning onto the rail.
"In the famous words of Commodore Norrington…Indeed." We both shared a laugh.
"Sam, I am going below to eat something. I have this craving for some pickles and mustard." I looked at her with absolute disgust and horror as she walked down the stairs to enjoy her nasty concoction. I was alone and I was enjoying it. I looked up at the sky once again and saw the faint outline of a single star.
"Second star to the right and straight on till morning." I said remember the story I had read by the author J.M Barrie. (A.N I know about the time difference. xP)
"What would tha' be luv?" Jack whispered from behind me which made me jump.
"Do you have to do that?" I asked.
"Luv, ye answer me question first."
"That is from a book I read called 'Peter Pan.' It's about a boy that never grows up and goes on an adventure in Neverland with the Darling children. It's my favourite book, alright! Now, you answer my question!" I huffed out.
"Interesting, a boy who never grows up. S'all fake. Anyway, aye I do 'ave ta do tha'. It's fun."
"Do you have no imagination Jack?" I asked.
"I probably don't. Who needs it?"
"Imagination is the greatest thing ever. It is the one thing in your life that makes you believe in things that others turn down. It makes you feel wonderful, I should know. It's helped me ever since I was a child."
"Well, ye probably have enough for the both of us. Now, let's go down ta then galley and eat." Jack said, licking his lips.
"Alright." I sighed, and followed Jack downstairs.
"How close are we to this island?" Will asked Jack later on that night up on the helm.
"Very close. We should be there any hour or day."
"LAND HO!" Marty announced from the crows nest. We all turned around and saw a beautiful island awaiting for us. You could barely see a fire in the middle of it and there were people dancing around it.
"...or we could be there now mate."
"Jack." I said a bit worried. "I thought there were no people on this island."
"Well, that's what I thought. DROP ANCHOR, AND PREPARE TO REACH LAND. Gibbs, Ana, Samantha, and Will ye'll coming with me. The rest of ye form yer own groups. Elizabeth, I want ye ta stay back here with Annabelle and Andrew. Savvy?" Jack shouted.
"Savvy!" The enter crew yelled. They all scurried off in different directions loading the boats, getting weapons and some staying aboard to watch the ship. I was suddenly grabbed by Jack and practically thrown into the row boat beside Ana. I glared at Jack and so did Ana.
"Jack! Is tha' any way ta treat a lady?" Ana asked.
Jack smirked. "She ain't no lady."
"He has a point Ana." I told her.
"Now shut yer traps and let Will row us ta shore in peace!"
"Who said I was rowing?" Will asked.
"I did."
"You can row yourself to shore Jack." Gibbs rolled his eyes, along with Ana. They must have known another storm was coming.
"I ain't comin' with ye two. I don't need a headache." Gibbs announced climbing back up into the ship.
"Eunuch, row the boat!"
"No!"
"STOP IT BOTH OF YE!" Ana yelled, she picked up the paddles and threw one at Jack and one at Will. "YE CAN BOTH ROW!" Jack and Will stared at Ana with their mouths wide open.
"You heard her, now row!" I smiled.
"LAND!" Jack and Will said in accord as they fell onto the sand.
"I wonder why they are tired?" I joked.
"No idea why." Ana sniggered.
"Yer both evil." Jack puffed out. I began laughing but suddenly stopped at the feeling of something jabbing my back. I slowly turned around and saw about 100 hundred men staring at us with menacing looks.
"Jack…get yer arse up, ye to Will." Ana muttered, kicking them both. Jack grimaced and about three men ran up to him.
"Are you ok?"
"Let me help you."
"I want to help him Barney!"
"Um, that's alright. I can 'elp meself up." Jack stated, standing up and running over to me and Ana. Will soon followed as the men started bothering him.
"Excuse me." I said, trying to stop the men from staring at Jack and Will. They all looked at me. "Is this the Jagara Islands?"
"No actually. This is Alegre Islands." Ana and I looked at each other and burst out laughing.
"You are welcome to stay here…the ladies too." One man purred to Jack.
"Thank ye. We will be stayin' 'ere for one night." Jack smiled. The men all giggled and ran back to the fire. Ana and I were still laughing so hard, that we had to sit on the floor to stop.
"What is so funny!" Jack asked annoyed.
"Yeah." Said Will.
"Jack!" I snorted.
"Will." Ana laughed.
"Alegre means Homosexual!" Ana and I said in accord. Jack and Will both looked at each other in horror and started screaming.
"They wanted to help me!" Will shouted, with his eyes wide open.
"They wanted ta do more than tha' mate!" Jack shuddered in pure horror at the thought.
"And they laugh at us." Will yelled, pointing his finger at me and Ana.
"Aye mate." Jack hissed, staring at Ana and I.
"Now Jack, Will. It was funny…"
"And it still is." Ana burst out. I laughed and so did Ana until Jack and Will grabbed us.
"This is not funny." Will said right in Ana's face.
"What if they touch us?" Jack asked me. Ana looked at me and I snorted.
"It's no use…" I said in between laughs. "No matter what they do to you, Ana and I will laugh." Ana nodded.
"Well then, I bet ye they won't do anything ta us."
"Alright and if they do, you have to let me sail the ship." Jack smiled his regular cocky smile. I knew what he was probably thinking. That I would lose.
"Alright then luv, If I win ye have to…" He began to look me up and down. I rolled my eyes.
"Nothing sexual!" I said through gritted teeth. He glared at me and opened his mouth but Ana gave him a dark look.
"Fine. Ye have ta wear your hair down for once."
"Nice bet." I said sarcastically. "Is there a reason you want my hair down?"
"Never seen it down yet 'ave I?" Jack smirked.
"Well, no. Anyway, do we have an accord?"
"Does this include the, butt?" Will asked.
"No, just the jewels." Ana said.
"Aye then. We do 'ave an accord. Now let's go over ta the fire." Jack said scared.
"Cover your jewels boys. It's going to be a long night." I said walking over to the fire with Ana.
"So, tha' is why we are here." Jack said.
"You are so brave. Taking on a pirate. It's so much work." A man named Henry said.
"Oh, but look at his muscles. So strong." Barney announced staring at Jack. Jack squirmed uncomfortably and I giggled. He glared at me and I turned away to hide my laughter. I looked up and saw Ana pointing to Will who was in the middle of three men.
"How can you stand staying with that pirate and not falling for him? He's gorgeous." Some man said.
"Um, that's because I have a wife." The men looked at him.
"You're straight?" They all asked.
"Yes." Will stated, proudly. The men sighed in disappointment and began talking amongst themselves. Will motioned for me to come over and since he was having a bad enough day I went over.
"Having fun?" I teased.
"Sam, this is pure torture. Look at Jack." I looked over and saw Jack's face was mixed with fear, worry and a bit of anger.
"He made the bet, now it's time to make it more interesting." I stood up and screamed so everyone would look at me. It worked. "I have an announcement to make. Jack has just had a terrible thing happen to him. After 6 months, he broke up with his long term boyfriend Jake. Why don't we all hug him and make him feel better?" The men squealed with delight and ran over to Jack and hugged him. I found Ana lying on the floor dying with laughter and Will just sat there in pure horror at what I just did.
"Help!" Jack screamed but was thrown deeper into the hundreds of homosexual men.
"Sam! Help him." Will commanded.
"Fine, fine. Men, I am sorry to say that Jack has decided to convert to woman because of this incident so please, give the man some damn space." They all moved apart saying sorry to Jack. Jack was on the floor, and he looked as if he had just had everything taken away from him. I felt bad for him but no so much. Jack finally snapped out of it when I helped him up and he gave me such a glare I thought I would drop dead at any moment.
"Now Jack. It was only a joke." I said innocently. Jack unclenched his fists and grinded his teeth. Slowly, he began to calm down and smiled at me.
"Gent's if ye can excuse us, we'll be going ta sleep now." Jack said, grabbing my hand and leading me to a tiny hut. As he practically dragged me to the hut a man smacked Jack's behind and that's when Jack lost it. He let go of my hand and fell to his knees.
"WHY ME!" He got up and ran off into the hut and started yelling and cursing.
"I better go in there." I said unsure if I should. I walked over to the hut and lifted the grass flap. The hut was empty I turned around and I was pummelled to the floor.
"Ye touch me gent and yer…Sam?" Jack said.
"Yes, now get off of me." I heaved. Jack didn't budge.
"Say yer sorry, then I'll get off."
"Sorry for what?"
"For making all that happen!" Jack screamed.
"Never!"
"Say it." Jack hissed, he was so close to my face I could feel his breath on my lips.
"Sorry." I shouted angrily.
"Ye know, yer really sexy when yer mad." I looked at him and noticed he was even closer, if that was possible.
He was thisclose.
Jack leaned down and I knew he was about to kiss me. I didn't stop him but Ana did. She ran into the hut and when she saw us she came to a screeching halt.
"Did I interrupt something?"
"No." Jack and I said.
"Yes." I thought. Will came in and saw Jack lying on top of me.
"Did I miss something? I thought Jack was gay." Will teased. I pushed Jack off me and covered my face with my hands. I felt tears coming out of my eyes and Will must have noticed.
"Sam! Are you alright?"
"Yes." I laughed. "I'm not crying it's just so funny. Jack's gay!" Jack groaned and fell onto a mat.
"Goodnight ye good for nothing cads." Jack mumbled before drifting off to sleep.
Sorry I know it's short, but I need to make the story the same length as before.
