Yay! Finally a longer chapter… thanks to all who reviewed my story so far! Keep 'em coming!
Robyn quickly looked around. There was nothing there but a donkey and a fat man snoring in the corner, obviously drunk. Wait. There was something, or someone, moving in the back. Jack, who took no notice of this, was inspecting the hundreds of swords that hung around the room. Suddenly, a brown-haired slender man of about thirty-seven jumped out, sword in hand, and said, " You're not welcome here, so get out or I'll run you through."
Jack spun around, and to Robyn's amazement, grinned, ignoring the sharp-edged sword aimed at his throat. "This isn't the first time you've threatened me, is it?"
As soon as Jack spoke, the man's eyes widened in shock, and his entire face lit up. "Jack you sly dog! You haven't changed at all!"
"You haven't changed much yourself, Mr. Will Turner."
Robyn gasped. Will Turner? So this is the man who fought side by side with her father against the skeleton crew of mutinous first-mate Barbossa. He also saved her father's hide on more than one occasion.
Will suddenly narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "Who's that?" He gestured with his sword behind Jack. "Who is she?"
Jack turned and winked at Robyn. "That, is me daughter, Robyn."
Robyn murmered a polite greeting, and Will broke into a warm smile. "Well, you obviously inherited your good looks from your mother's side of the family." Robyn blushed. "I cna't believe Captain Jack Sparrow finally settled down!."
Jack scowled. "It wasn't my idea, I assure you."
Will laughed. "No, I'm sure it wasn't. And there's only one woman I know who could possibly bully you into marriage. So, when did you and AnnaMaria finally tie the knot?"
Jack groaned. "It's that obvious, eh? Well, we're not here to talk about me. How is your bonny lass, who we risked life and limb to save?"
"Elizabeth…" Will grimaced. "She's probably worried sick about me! Say, why don't you and your daughter come with me to supper. Elizabeth will be delighted to see you! Besides," Will narrowed his eyes at Jack, "knowing you, this isn't just a social visit."
"Aye!" Jack grinned slyly. " It's strictly business!"
