Chapter Four: The Sparrow and the Magpie.
I stared out at the sea gasping for breath. What he told me...it couldn't be true.
A protector for the sea? A protector for mankind? Me?...no. No I couldn't be. I looked at him for an explanation.
"A long time ago a prophet foretold our quest" he began leaning heavily on the side of the ship, "It was said that a man would come who would end the lives of every living man and woman in the world, whether they be pirate or none."
I stared at him in disbelief. This was nonsense, it had to be.
"She said that many thousands of men would fall trying to defeat him but his power would be too great for them to muster. This all so far has come true. Many towns and ports have also been lost. When we found you last night it was no ordinary storm but one sent by him to take out any who might be passing through these waters."
My eyebrows had raised several inches above my eyes. It sounded like some elaborate tale but Jack's face was serious and filed with anger towards this man.
"He doesn't always attack the sea and we have been fortunate for it but things are getting worse" he continued in a hushed voice so as the crew could not hear. "I don't want to worry the crew"
I nodded.
"The prophet said there would only be one way to defeat him. She said that a Sparrow and a Magpie would together combine their strengths and it would be the downfall of him. Of course no one understood what it meant at the time, they all thought she was a batty old cow"
He paused to let out a low chuckle.
"But two years after her death they found this"
He slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out an extremely tatty and old piece of paper and handed it to me.
I opened it and gasped at its contents. There were two diagrams, one was the tattoo of a Sparrow which lay on Jack's arm, and the other was the new tattoo of a Magpie which lay on my arm.
"One hundred years ago, long before either of us was born, she died. We are the ones to kill this man, it lays on our shoulders."
I stared at him. My heart had stopped, the waves were silent and the gentle breeze which had been blowing at us had ceased altogether.
"I can't be this woman," I finally said, "I have none of these strengths you talk about. I'm a peasant and I'm not even one of those!" I could feel tears in the back of my throat again which threatened to spill over. I didn't want to be here. I wanted to be back at home safe and warm in my bed with my mum by my side whispering soothe things in my ears to get me to sleep. I didn't want to be stood on a ship with half the lives of the world on my shoulders.
"You're joking aren't you?" I whispered. He looked at me. This was not the Jack Sparrow I knew. Not the Jack Sparrow who heroically saves Elizabeth but still manages to escape death within inches of his life. This was not Jack Sparrow. But it was. I was confused in my head. It felt as though a great storm was taking place in the middle of my brain, wind gushing past the inside of my ears, the clap of lightening piercing down straight through my memory. But through all this noise and confusion I could still hear one voice. Jack Sparrow.
He continued now reciting the words of this woman or prophet:
"These two, both man and woman, will come from an outlawed party on the run from the law. Their blood will run black together to defeat the powers of the evil in the world."
He removed a knife from his pocket and took hold of my hand. He made a small cut in the palm of my hand and repeated it for himself. We squeezed our hands together and paused.
"Well, moment of truth luv"
I closed my eyes wishing beyond hope that I wouldn't be the one destined for this life.
Our hands parted and I took a deep breath.
I looked down hoping that all I would see was red blood.
My hand was encased with blood as black as the now dark sea.

A/N ok I'm sorry that this chapter was short and also sorry about the WAY OUT THERE fantasy! I also apologise for the different Jack but don't worry he will be back to his old self in the next chapter. I just needed this chappie to be really serious and it wouldn't have worked with a comedy Jack.
Jack: "You've turned me into a blithering fool!! I don't act like that!"
Me: "You'll act any damn way I want you to savvy? Anyway who the hell invited you to write in here?? This is my own special place to write to my reviewers"
Jack: "Hehe...special place"
Me: "Oh shut up your supposed to be an adult!"
Oh by the way LiTtLe-SeRpEnT-gUaRd I will take your suggestion ... she will puke down someone just give me time!
