"There are rules you see, things that must not be done in any circumstances" Alice said with a serious look on her face.
"What do you mean rules?"
"You must never tell anybody who you really are"
"Why"
"Because it will upset the natural order of things" Jessica was becoming scared.
She woke up from a fitful nights sleep and untangled herself from her bed sheets. She got up and walked towards her dresser and picked up the piece of hoping that during the night the name might have changed. The note not only contained the name of her charge but also the name of the place where they would die.
She quickly washed, dressed and slipped the scrap between her cleavage. She ran a brush through her ash blonde hair, separating sections and pulling them away from her face and securing them with a wooden clasp. She gathered her things and left her room.
She walked down the wooden stairs and went to the bar and paid the owner for her nights stay, got a drink and sat in the corner.
'Ok' she thought to herself 'I need to come up with a plan'. She glanced around the bar and took note of the occupants it was still early so it was still fairly empty. This was going to be a tough job; she hated the ones where she had to travel especially where it involved boats.
There were a couple of working women in the corner chatting quietly amongst themselves she tried to overhear but couldn't. To her right there were two men who were properly pirates asleep and slumped over each other.
'This might be more difficult than I thought'. She had to find a way onto that ship. She knew that she wouldn't be given this charge if it wasn't in her power to collect them. She walked over to the bar and talked to the keep. He then pointed towards a drunk which she had yet to notice.
"That's perfect" She said to the bar keep she smiled, it was all falling into place.
She walked over towards the drunken pirate; he had been there since the night before and had drunk himself into a state of unconsciousness. She couldn't see his face as it was obscured by a three pointed Captains hat; but she could see some long black dread locks spraying out from underneath.
She slowly reached out for high and gave him a light shove.
"Captain?" He let out a slight groan but didn't wake. She repeated the action but he still did not come round. She knew of him well so she tried a different approach.
"Mr Sparrow!" She half yelled near his head.
"That's CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow!" He slurred out to her almost falling of his stool.
