Chapter 6: Rough seas and a fierce storm (author: you have to have a storm scene, LOL)
A sudden storm blew in around noon that day. Heavy rains and strong winds were blowing the Pearl and the Phantom off course. Jack and Isabella struggled to keep their ships under control while the members of their crews frantically tried to keep the sails untangled from the masts and spars as well as trying to prevent the ships from sinking with the water coming in down in the brigs.
"Jack! I just heard a cracking sound coming from the main mast! I think it's about ready to snap in two!" Will screamed over the wind.
"She can hold a bit longer!" Jack screamed from the helm. No sooner were those words out of Jack's mouth, a bolt of lightning came down and struck the mast, splitting it in two. It sent the top half into the sea while throwing Anamaria and Elizabeth to the deck below.
"I stand corrected!" That's when Jack noticed Anamaria and Elizabeth on the deck. "Oh my god! Will! Anamaria and Elizabeth fell from the mast!"
"I got 'em!" Will called. He rushed to his fallen girlfriend's side and checked her over for any major injuries. Elizabeth was unconscious, but breathing, and miraculously sustained only minor cuts and bruises. He then moved over to Anamaria and found her in the same state, remarkably. He hurriedly carried Elizabeth into her bed and then returned for Anamaria.
"Put Anamaria on me bed an' then get back out here! I need ye t' cut a few ropes off the bow spar!" Jack yelled.
"I'm on it!" Will rushed Anamaria inside, then returned and headed for the bow. Out of nowhere, Isabella appeared, clearly having just braved the storm and swung over from the Phantom to Jack's side.
"Jack!! Are ye ok?!" she yelled, struggling to be heard over the howling winds.
"Yea Isabella! I'm fine!" Jack reassured his girlfriend.
"How about Elizabeth and Anamaria?! I saw 'em fall!" Isabella inquired of her friends.
"They're unconscious an' 'ave a few scrapes, but otherwise ok remarkably!" At that moment, a freezing cold wave crashed over the side of the ship and crashed onto the deck, soaking everyone. Isabella grabbed a nearby rope to keep from being washed overboard and Jack held tight to the helm.
"I think it'll be over soon!" Isabella told Jack.
"For the Pearl's sake, I hope so!" he replied, not taking his eyes from the ocean for a moment.
