A/N: Wow! You guys really do like my writing! Ok enough chatting next chapter!
"What did you do?" I repeated.
Jack backed up a little bit.
"You can't honestly believe I did this!" He objected.
I peeked around the corner, no sign of the mob. I grabbed Jack's arm and we ran back to the Black pearl. Jack took the wheel and shouted out orders. Once we were off, the people back on land cursed at us. Soon they had disappeared from view.
"What did you do!" I demanded raising my voice.
"I told you I didn't do anything! Somebody framed me!" He snapped.
Gibbs approached us.
"What's going on?" He asked.
"Gibbs did Jack ever disappear while you stopped in certain towns for long periods of time?"
Aye he did. Why?" He raised his eyebrow suspiciously.
I spun around to face Jack.
"You could've just told me the truth!" I yelled.
I went into the cabin and slammed the door shut. Hot tears welled up in my eyes but I brushed them away impatiently. Jack's crew consisted of men who had committed mutiny before so I found it odd that he had them onboard again.
"What be the problem Miss Alex?" Ragetti asked.
"Nothing." I murmured.
"You don't go storming into a room, slamming doors for no reason."
I sighed and for some stupid, stupid mental reason I told them.
"I think Jack did something and he keeps denying it."
The crew looked sympathetic.
"There, there, miss. I'm sure he had a good reason." One pirate said.
I opened the door and walked past Jack. I went down below decks and sat on the frame near the window, staring out at the water.
"Why am I getting mad at him? I didn't even give him a chance to speak." I asked myself.
I heard somebody walk down the stairs but I didn't turn. Elizabeth sat down on the frame with me.
"Are you ok?" She asked.
"Yeah I'm alright. Just tired."
"Maybe you should get some sleep."
"Aye I will."
She left the room and I was left alone again. I leaned my head against the cool glass and soon fell asleep.
The ship turned abruptly and I shot awake. It was dark outside and the morning shift crew was sleeping peacefully. The night shift had already started. I stretched and yawned widely. I decided I needed to apologize to Jack for accusing him. I got up, tiptoed past the crew, past Elizabeth and Will, and quietly pushed open the hatch door. It was deathly quiet, which frightened me.
"Jack?" I whispered into the darkness.
There was no answer. I crept up the steps to the wheel and froze. The crew (which consisted of Jack's old enemies) was at the wheel.
"Where is Jack?" I demanded.
The pirates looked at me, then at each other, and laughed.
"We tied him up, and dropped him off to the calvery in Singapore about ten minutes. He put up a nasty fight too. We had to knock him out with this." One pirate said and lifted up the end of a broken rum bottle.
I could barely see Singapore in the distance. I pulled out my sword, as they did.
"Turn this ship around now!" I screamed.
"No!"
I swung my sword hark ducking a sword that zoomed over my head. The good side of the crew came bursting out of the hatch and helped me fight. Soon we had the pirates pinned, their weapons were taken away, and they were tied to the mast. I grabbed the wheel and we headed back to Singapore.
"Why did you guys frame Jack?" I asked the evil crew.
"Who says we did? We turned him in for the reward.
Then who did? I wondered.
When we were about tow miles from Singapore I climbed into a rowboat.
"I'll come with. If Jack's in a cell, you're going to need my help getting him out." Will said climbing into the boat.
"I'll come with too." Elizabeth piped up.
"No. You stay here just in case." Will replied.
We lowered the boat into the water and rowed into town. I pulled on my hat and we walked around the town. It wasn't that hard to fin the prison for it was the only dirty, scummy building there was. Guards were stationed outside the building and we walked up to them.
"No one is allowed access into the building." One guard said.
"Well I beg your pardon but I was sent here by the Governor of Port Red to come retrieve a prisoner for hanging.
"Why would we allow you to take a prisoner from here to a new town to hang him when we could have done it here?"
"The captive we speak of was born in our town. In our town it is tradition that a man or women born in our town, and has received a death pence, must be killed there as well.
The guards nodded their heads and led us into the cells.
"It's him." I stopped them pointing at Jack.
They opened the cell door, tired Jacks hands together and led us out. We thanked the men and we went back to the Pearl. As we climbed aboard I saw another ship on the horizon.
There she is! Follow that ship!" I screamed.
A/N: Haha! Another cliff hanger! I'll update soon! -16aqua
