Authors note: I fixed Will's background problem, where I had written it in two different chapters. So it's fixed so is some grammar and spelling errors. I've also fixed names, and other errors I made, I know a few times Misty was called, "Mindy" And I fixed that, so no worries, I fixed all the errors I can find, took me all day too! Oh, and sorry for the long wait, it was pure laziness on my part, and it can take me a while to write a chapter.
Misty's P.O.V.
I would be lying if I said at this very moment I was surprised, because in all honesty I wasn't. I knew both liked each other, the way they would steal glances, the way they fought, the way they talked to each other, and how protective Jack was over Tessi. However at this moment I was pissed at Jack, he was being an ass. If there was one thing I hated it was having a man think because I'm a woman or the Governor's daughter, I'm fragile. I'm a Swann, and we Swann women are known for our stubborness, pridefulness, strength, and most of all we are known for our outspokeness, not to mention how loud we can yell.
I hated when a man wouldn't tell me the truth because it might hurt me, I may not like the truth, it may hurt me, but I'll love that person more for telling me the truth, and it's sad to say a lot of men don't see it that way. Jack feels he's protecting us, I hate it. I hate feeling like I am only made to cook, clean, have a man's babies and that's it. I could do more then have a mans babies! It's weird to say it, but I've actually enjoyed my time on the ship, to just sail out into the horizon. I don't want to be confined to a home where all I can do is cook, clean, take care of kids, and make kids.
That is not what I want in life, at all. I want to be able to do this, I may not like Elizabeth much, she may say hurtful things and we may not get along, but she's my sister. And I won't let her die, and I won't just give up and let someone else do it when I am capable of doing it.
I turned from Will and glared at Jack who was just standing there in shock, the rest of the crew was staring which pissed me off even more, "Take a picture it lasts longer!" I screamed at them all, they looked at me in confusion as they had no clue what a picture was. I wasn't sure if I did, I had no clue where I heard that and what a picture was, but it seemed to get the point across and people turned away, I was happy about this even though I probably knew they were eavesdropping.
"How dare you!" I screamed at him, my fists balled up, I wanted to punch him, I really did, just so I would feel better. He just started at me, I couldn't read his face. "How dare you yell at my sister?" I yelled again I was having trouble containing my anger.
He made her look like a fool, it was one thing to say I was a smart ass but to say she did things just to get her way and to say how annoying her sarcasm is was another thing. That was how Tessi was, and she never did things to get her way it was just how she was. She loved Jack.
Jack shifted his feet, "She yelled too." He said calmly, which was the wrong answer that just pissed me off more, if I wasn't already.
I swung at Jack with my fist and hit him just below the jaw, but it wasn't a strong hit because he rubbed it and glared at me, "Weak hit." He mumbled at me.
"Screw you. I'm going and that's the end of it." I said pushing past him, I turned around and looked at Anamaria, "Tell Tessi I'm going." I said and got down into the boat with Jack and Will following both knowing not to even dare say a word in fear I might blow up at them.
It bothered me, I could see Tessi's hurt and embarrassed look on her face as she ran past to the Captain's Quarters. I just hated to see her upset, I know Tessi would say not to worry about it; I'm overreacting, or just stop. But I just couldn't stand to see her like that, and to know Jack was the cause of it, made it worse.
The trip to the caves was silent save for Jack rowing along, hearing the soft sound of the water hitting the side of the boat as Jack moved along swiftly. Will was silent but I could tell he was searching for something to say.
I sighed I wasn't sure what was happening, I was starting to feel less and less torn up that I might not be with Will. I remembered a memory I had, had a few nights before. I was at the docks and a man in a Navy Uniform like Norrington's came up. He was really tan probably Mexican or Cuban as that was what most of the inhabitants were. He had a brown wig on like most of the men, I could finally see the faceless mans face.
It was a choppy memory but I could remember one thing, "Misty…you look stunning." Misty shifted her weight, "Thank you Nick." Misty said blushing a little, she said looking up. All I could remember was that I felt a lot of love for this man and my memories of him were starting to come back and as they did I was losing my love for Will.
I was worried, was my love for Will only a crush from the movie? Whatever a movie was.And now that I am with my supposedly real life I actually was in love with another, and not Will? If not what will become of Will? If Will loves me what will he do? Elizabeth does not love him and my love for him is fading, and is being replaced with another love for someone else, that I most likely was in love with and still am. I just pray Will finds a woman, who loves him for him, no matter what, Will is too good for Elizabeth, I hope he gets out of his phase, of loving her. It bothers me, that I know she doesn't love him back, that would break his heart.
The more I remember about this other man the more I love him then Will. I look over at Will who seems to be deep in thought. I was getting scared, I was pulled from 2005 and put in the 1600's and basically told in more ways then one, I was never meant to be in 2005 that it was a mistake and I was living the wrong life.
And now that I supposedly love someone else I can barely remember, I turn away from Will and look ahead, I can't tell if Jack is pissed but I had calmed down and was no longer angry with him.
I sighed, I felt guilty for hitting Jack, no matter how angry I was, I had no right to hit him. I look up and decide to swallow my pride, "Jack…" I trailed off; he didn't turn his head he only looked at me with a sideways glance and then back without a word. "Jack, I'm sorry for hitting you." I said looking at him.
He didn't say anything for a long while, and then he grinned a little, "I knew you couldn't stay mad at ol' Jack for long." He said grinning impishly.
I smiled; I knew this was Jack's way of forgiving me for hitting him. We had been in the cave for quite sometime before Will looked over and saw a skeleton, his eyes grew wide and he looked away quickly, I however continued to stare. I swear, I'm not sadistic, I don't like death. I swear.
I could hear voices in the distance, "Ten years of hoarding swag!" I heard echo off the cold and wet cave walls as we went. It had a musty smell, probably decomposition from dead bodies, and other gross things. Water was dripping, and everytime it did it echoed of the cave walls, which was loud, everythingseemed ten times louder, then it normal would be. Which irritated me, I hated loud noises, it drove me up the wall, it hurt me ears, and caused me to snap at people.
Will finally spoke up, "What code is Gibbs to keep to if the worst should happen," Will asked looking around uneasily, I however was curious, there were small water bugs, crawling around that gave me the heebie jeebies, but I didn't say anything, I had this female-macho-pride thing going on, I hated to admit I was scared, made me feel less of a woman I guess.
I feeling hyper said the stupidest thing ever, "ARGH! The Pirates code matey!" I said hyperactively, swinging my arms around like I was insane, in which if Tessi was here she would say I psycho but laugh at me. It was at this moment, I realized Will had no sense of humor and was way too uptight, poor bloke.
Will raised an eyebrow and said nothing he didn't seem to get it so I shut up as I had another memory, I was really getting tired of this.
"Will doesn't get my hyper sense of humor like you do Nick."I said laughing; I looked over to see Nicholas sitting on the dock withme laughing he had pulled his wig off to show short black hair. He hated the wigs, said they made him sweaty and itch, he never got why the Navy insisted they wear them, it just made them look so old.
"Nah, he's a little stuck up. I went the opposite way of my family and probably did things I wasn't supposed to I have not a clue how I got into the Navy. But this is our secret" He said leaning in towards Misty as if it was a juicy secret he was about to tell, "Will loves Elizabeth." He said mysteriously before busting out laughing. We always found the obvious funny, or the stupid funny, like Tessi, Will seemed to never get it, he would just stare at you, blinking. And we would all just go, "Nevermind." Poor boy, didn't have much of a sense of humor.
Misty rolled her eyes and laughed, "I would have NEVER guessed!" She said putting a piece of apple in her mouth and grinning.
"She's so stuck up." Misty said, sighing, she was so content, Nicholas gave her butterflies in her stomach, his smile his laugh, the soft touch of him. My Father looked down on him, he wasn't as respectable as Norrington, Nicholas had a record for getting into trouble.
"Yea, she even more stuck up then my Mother!" He said, chuckling a bit.
Misty fake gasped, "No way!" She said before they both doubled over in laughter.
I came back to reality when I heard Will say, "I am not obsessed with treasure!" He said snootily.
I rolled my eyes, "He was kidding Will." I snapped a little walking past not noticing the hurt in Will's eyes, we slowly crept towards an opening to see Elizabeth looking around, she actually looked scared and it made me feel a little bad for her just a little.
Barbossa was standing on a pile of gold looking like the King of Sheba looking around proudly, "Gentlemen!" He said excitedly, his voice booming throughout the cave. I couldn't keep my mind off Nicholas all of a sudden, "The time has come! Our Salvation is nigh!" He said as the cave echoed with cheers of agreement. "Our torment is near end." He said lower looking at Elizabeth as she looked at him with pure hatred.
Will could see this and he went to go, "Elizabeth." He said but Jack and I held him back, it wasn't the smartest move to do that, he'd be noticed and shot down both Jack and I knew it.
Barbossa didn't hear anything but the monkey looked around when he heard gold fall from the small cliff, I glared at Will who looked back, "Ten years we've been tested and tried!" He bellowed, "Each man jack has proved his mettle a hundred times over," He said and then raised his hand, "And a hundred times again!" He said louder with another roar of agreement from the cursed pirates.
One piped up, "Suffered I have!" He said with a few people nodding in agreement at the pirate's words, but he sounded like a twig, he sounded like he was frightened.
Barbossa continued his speech, "Punished we were the lot of us disproportionate to our crimes!" He said looking around wildly, I grinned knowing Tessi would be bored with this what seemed to be hour long speech.
"Here it is!" He said pushing the cover off the treasure chest to show beautiful gold that shimmered in the light from above and made me feel like I had dollar signs in my eyes, "The cursed treasure of Cortes himself. Every last piece we found," He said trailing over and then turning to Elizabeth, "Save for this!" He yelled, Elizabeth jumped in fear and I couldn't help but roll my eyes, yet I also wanted to go and hug her.
Gee, I'm just one big oxymoron, or one of the biggest females ever, with my ever changing emotions.
Will jumped again and we both had to pull him back, I glared at him again, I wanted to smack him but I didn't, "Jack," Will whispered harshly.
We all stood up and Jack spoke up calmly, "Not yet, we wait for the opportune moment." He said nodding at me, I understood, in this aspect he was right we couldn't just barge in there.
"When's that? When it's of greatest profit to you?" Will spat at him glaring daggers, if looks could kill, Jack would be dead many times over,he looked like hewas going to shove Jack, but I rolled my eyes.
I shoved Will, "Stop! He's right. We can't just barge in there. Would you just trust him, he knows what he's doing." I said looking at Will angrily.
Jack spoke up, "May I ask you something?" He said seriously, "Have I ever given you a reason not to trust me? Do us a favor I know it's difficult for you, but please stay here and don't do anything stupid." He said seriously walking off.
I turned and glared at Will before following Jack leaving Will to glower over what we both had just said to him. "How do you put up with him? Do you love him?" Jack asked looking at him.
I shrugged, "I'm not really sure. I doubt it." I said, he nodded knowing that was all he was going to get out of me, and we peaked at the other end of the cavern and saw a back way to get Elizabeth without being noticed. I smiled; I knew I could trust Jack.
I knew Tessi, even though she hated to admit it, she trusted Jack with every fiber of her being, and so did I. So far he had not steered us wrong, so why not trust him?
We listened to the pirates go on about how they were tortured and who caused it, "Her!" They all screamed pointed at Elizabeth, she was shaking with fear looking around for any sign of someone to help her.
We were looking in, Jack was telling me when the best time was to go and get her and if we were noticed, try and strike a bargain with Barbossa, otherwise we get Elizabeth and sneak off with the Pearl.
We both heard footsteps behind us and we went to turn around but Jack was hit on the head with a plank, "Sorry Jack, I'm not going to be you're leverage." It was Will, I whipped around to see Jack out cold.
I looked up, fire might as well have been blazing my eyes, I was pissed and I was shaking with anger. He just couldn't help himself could he, he had to be stupid, he had to think with his privates and not his head. I had the urge to claw his face.
"How…you….idiot…stupid…Jack," I was not able to say a comprehendible sentence, I was that pissed off at him.
He still had the plank in his hand, I looked down at it, Will was silent and I could tell a little bit scared, "Give me the plank Will." I said glaring at him, grabbing at it.
"No," He said. Wrong Answer "It was for Elizabeth!" He said, this just put the final nail in the casket, my love for Will was fading fast and being replaced for another that I was slowly remembering.
"I love Elizabeth, she's my sister, but Jack had found another way to get to her, you just had to jump to conclustions didn't you! You idiot! Like I would trust someone that would 'cause harm to Elizabeth, you may love her, but don't forget, I'M HER OLDERSISTER. Nothing is stronger then a sisters or friendsbond, save for the bond of a mother and child." I said seething at him, for some reason I wanted to run in there as well, and save Elizabeth, whether or not I wanted to admit it, I loved that brat, but I wasn't going to risk everyone's life because of it. Will said nothing.
"Give it to me!" I said pulling on it I tugged and tugged, Will was not giving in, he had a hold on it and was trying to pry my hands off it, I was near tears. I couldn't understand why he had to do it.
I was getting splinters in my hands but at this point I didn't care about it, "Give it to me you ass!" I said, I could see the hurt and just as I pulled he went to come towards me, making the plank hit me in the head as I twisted to pull.
I gasped the pain in my head was horrible, I couldn't feel anything for a moment but it soon came back and I looked up with tears in my eyes as he dropped the plank, "I hate you!" I almost screamed at him, I didn't want to alert the pirates.
"Let's go." He said ignoring the comment though if I wasn't so angry at this point I wouldn't have seen the hurt in his eyes.
"No! Get away from me!" I said pushing him, he looked at me shocked and hurt for a moment and ran off, I fell to the ground next to Jack, I didn't trust Will anymore. He had hurt someone who had gotten us so far.
Was he that stupid that he didn't catch the fact it was all a game? He wasn't really going to give Will to Barbossa, and Will was too stupid to realize this.
I started to stop cryingas I shook Jack, "Jack wake up! Jack!" I said starting tocry again, he started to stir a little as I looked up into the cavern and saw Barbossa slap Elizabeth, a few minutes after I saw Will and Elizabeth swim away, with the gold medallion.
Jack started to wake up and see me cry, "What's wrong?" He asked, "Where's Will?" He asked again stand up.
I groaned, "He…he left. I let him." I said turning around to look through the hole; the pirates were pissed because they couldn't find the medallion.
Jack took his sash off and dipped it in the cold water in the bottom of the cave and whipped my head making it feel a lot better. He grabbed my hand and we walked off with the plank Will had hit us with, which I now found out to be an oar. I smiled somewhat, Jack was a good man, he always made sure Tessi and I were taken care of.
We walked down a few tunnels and ran into the pirates I gasped and stopped, Jack didn't seemed too fazed he looked around and grinned his infamous Jack Sparrow grin.
One looked enraged, "You're supposed to be dead!" He said gritting his teeth as the other pirates nodded in agreement.
"Am I not?" Jack asked looking at himself, I gulped we tried to leave but they all cocked their pistols at us and we were stuck there was no way out, I grabbed onto Jack who looked at me reassuringly.
We were led down to a small area while Barbossa made his way through; the stench of not bathing for weeks filled the cavern and made me want to wretch everywhere. I tried to breathe with my mouth and plug my nose but the smell was just too strong.
"How on earth did you get off the island?" Barbossa asked and then looked down at me and grinned, "And who is this lovely youngwench?" He asked grinning, his rotten teeth showing, I crinkled my nose, it was gross.
I glared, "I'm not a wench you bastard." I said flipping him the bird, he narrowed his eyes and slapped me, I grabbed my face nears springing to my eyes.
"Hey," Jack said warningly, "That's not how you treat a lady." He said glaring at Barbossa. "The one thing you forgot mate was that when you left me on that godforsaken spit of land is that I, am... Captain Jack Sparrow." He said.
Barbossa laughed, "Kill him, and the whore." He said walking away.
I backed into Jack as the pirates cocked their guns; I never told Tessi how much I cared…Elizabeth…Nicholas…Will...
"The girl's blood didn't work?" Jack asked breaking my thoughts; I looked up to see the Barbossa stop.
"Hold you're fire!" He commanded the pirates groaned and put their pistols away looking at Jack. He turned around, "You know whose blood we need?" He asked as if it were the worst thing ever.
Jack grinned impishly and wrapped his arm around me, "Aye, I know whose blood you need." Barbossa sighed and told the pirates to take us to the Pearl Jack leaned down, "You think Tessi is still mad at me?" He asked.
I smiled weakly, "Nah, she still loves you." I said, this seemed to make Jack feel better as we were taken towards the ship, I was worried. Would I ever see Tessi again?
As Will climbed the ladder to the Interceptor with Elizabeth he was worried what Tessi would say that he didn't have her twin and closest sister Misty with him, not to mention hitting Jack over the head, Jack whom she loved.
He climbed up to see Tessi running out of her cabin and pushing through the crowd to see only Elizabeth and Will, "Where's Jack and Misty?" She asked.
"Well um…" Will began, how was he going to tell her what he did?
A/n: Yeah, I know a lot of people want Misty and Will together, but I want this story to be different, and not like every other story out there, some people won't like the pairings, but I think if it's a good story and well, written, I hope people can overlook it, I also hope people will like it, and think it has some refreshing pairings, which will be found later in this story, so I did my part by writing the chapter, please do yours and review! Thanks!
