Disclaimer: I really don't own much at all in this fic…. I'm not sure I even own the name of the town, I have this fear that I accidentally stole it subconsciously…. But I'll never really be sure of that will I?
Oh and I apologize for the crappyness of this fic… I just had to get it out of my system… you know what I mean… don't you?
Anyway… on to the Fic
Prologue?
Time Lost
It was a rainy day that dim morning in Carvala, the dark cloud filled sky roared and flashed as the sea below summoned small but dangerous waves. The entire town still seemed to be asleep, waiting silently for the rough storm to pass, not a soul could be spotted that morning, save for that of a young man at the docks.
The young man was speedily making ready his boat to set out on the treacherous sea. Wind and rain blew into his face almost blinding him, but still he kept on with what he was doing, only pausing a few moments to tie back his dark, tangled hair back with a tattered piece of cloth. A determination was set in his dark eyes that is not commonly found in mortal men, but there was also a sadness there that was hiding, not wanting to show it's self.
As he turned to untie his small boat he noticed a young woman standing close to him. Her eyes were red and tears mixed with rainwater dripped from her fair face. Her plain nightgown and bare mud covered feet gave one the impression that she had ran there in a hurry.
When the young man saw her, they rushed towards each other. He held her close tightly as she began to weep into his shoulder. They embraced there, not talking, eyes closed shut, with her head under his, as the rain lashed down upon them.
But the time had now come for him to leave. He slowly lifted her chin, and brushed the hair away from her face, revealing her stunning blue green eyes. Those eyes. They were beautiful, but they broke his heart so much when he saw the pain that lay in them, much like his. But he could wait no longer. It was time to go.
"Sorry love but I have to go," he quavered a little not wanting to show his sadness. To be brave.
"But … there… there has to be some other way," she said giving way to tears again.
" Please don't cry love," he said gently caressing her face, "This is the only way, I have to go. But I'll be back some day, and I'll be a real captain of a real ship," he gave a small smile, " and we can ride the seven seas together, nothing will be able to stop us."
The young woman gave a small nod, showing that she accepted the fact that he was leaving, weather she wanted to or not. She reached up and placed her hand upon his tan face, as she pressed her lips firmly on his. When she drew back she hugged him close.
"Please don't forget about me," she whispered in his ear.
"How could I love," he said pulling away. He gave her that smile she fell in love with, turned around, got into his boat, and sailed away not looking back.
He left her on the docks that day. He left her hoping for him to remember her, even if he didn't come back. God knows she would remember him.
-----------------------
Captain Jack Sparrow shot awake as lightning flashed ruthlessly above the Black Pearl. He groggily rubbed his eyes, of all things to dream about that just had to be it. He had plenty of other things that had happened to him that he wouldn't mind to dream about at all. For instance, that wench he met in Singapore, now that would have been fun to relive. But he didn't dream about Singapore, instead he dreamt about a time he didn't fancy remembering. A time that had, for some unexplainable reason, been weighing on his thoughts lately.
Unable to fall back to sleep, Jack swayed down to his secret stash of rum in his 'Captains Quarters' and spent the rest of the night there.
LC: well I hope you enjoyed that, now if you wouldn't mind I would appreciate some help. You see…. I could keep this a one shot… on the other hand I kinda want to add on to it, but if I do I want to add on a lot….and I'm not to sure where this is gonna be going so I'll have to figure out a plot, I really just have a rough Idea of what I want to do with this….. I'm just really indecisive… so I want you guys to decide for me!
