chapter 4

In the end of the previous chapter, Barbossa mentioned the name Black Pearl. Sorry, I was in the mood.

Lizzie and Jackie's hands were tied up, they were on their knees,and a blindfold was placed in front of both of their eyes.

"Lizzie? Lizzie are you there?" Jackie said

"Jackie is that you?" she responded "What's happening? This is totally freaking me out."Many deep chuckles were heard.

"Who was that?" Lizzie said

"Young Turner and Sparrow from another time, you are here as part of my revenge" said a horrible, old, scratchy voice that Lizzie remembers"You might as well take off their blindfolds to see their doom."

Their blindfolds were taken off and they looked up at a horrible sight. An old man with a small light beard, wore a dark long coat and a large feathery hat, and had a sword and a gun at his sides. Jackie did a small gasp under his breath, but Lizzie sustained her fear and tried to remember the name from her dream. Then, it came to her.

"I heard your voice in my dream. You're captain Barbossa!Aren't you?" she asked with much seriousness in her voice.

"Aye." he said, with a sly smile "And who be ye, Sparrow or Turner?" he started to crouch to their level.

"Why would we tell you our names? Jackie, whatever happens, don't tell him our last names." she said. Barbossa then lifted her up to her feet, and gave her a hard punch in the stomach. She groaned in pain and fell back to her knees.

"We won't tell." she said. Barbossa slapped her in the face and left a small scatch on her chin.

"We won't tell!" she said again. He took out a knife and cut the palm of her hand, like he did to Elizabeth Swann.

"Leave her alone!" Jackie yelled.A small tear appeared in her right eye as she continued to say 'we won't tell.'. Barbossa had an impatient look on his face.

"Get up." he said. he used his sword to cut the ropes. He then gave her a sword of her own.

"Why are you doing this?" she asked

"It's not fair to fight someone who is unarmed." he said "Now lets see if your good at fighting." He lunged at her, but she parried. She was swiping and slashing with great speed, agility, and strength no one has ever seen before. She dodged all of Barbossa's moves and most of her attacks were direct hits. Barbossa decided to end this battle, partly because he was bored and partly because he didn't want to lose to girl nearly half his size.He kicked her in the left knee which made her fall against the wall and drop her sword. He stabbed just under her armpit, just a millimeter from the skin. She looked at it, gave it a tug, looked up and saw a gun pointing at her.

"Cheater."she pouted. He gave a quick smirk.

"I'll ask you for the last time, what are your names?" he said in a more aggrivated tone.

"We won't tell you!" she yelled. He then clicked it.

"Don't hurt her!" Jackie bursted, "My name is Jackie Turner, her's is Lizzie Sparrow! Don't hurt her! I beg of you, please!"

"See? He's more cooperative, unlike you." Barbossa said. He socked Lizzie once more in the stomach and took his sword so she can fall to the ground and hold it.

"Take 'em to the brig." he said. Jackie's ropes were sliced by a medium cutlass and was dragged along with Lizzie to the underbelly of the ship where the brig lied. They were shoved into a cell and locked in. Lizzie sat down in the corner and all was silent.

"Lizzie? Are you okay?" Jackie finally asked. "Yeah, I'm just upset that Barbossa ruined my favorite jacket." she replied, putting her thumb through the holes. All was silent once again. "Up there, with Barbossa, That Was Amazing!" Jackie bursted, "You could've beat the stuffing out of him! I mean, where did you learn such cool moves?" "Remember that one summer we couldn't meet together at lunch? I was at a fencing camp, best in my class. I would've completely destroyed him if I had another sword." she said. She took her knife out of her pocket and cut some fabric from her jacketto wrap around the hand Barbossa cut. The only sound was the waves crashing against the hull. "My parents told me a story a long time ago. It started with a mutiny." Jackie started, "Captain Jack Sparrow was marooned on an island and was expected dead. The new captain of the Black Pearl was Barbossa, and he wanted to steal some cursed gold. The curse caused them to be immortal, but at a price. A Bootstrap Bill Turner sent a piece of the gold to his son William. The others didn't like that, so they tied his bootsraps to two cannons and threw him overboard. Ironically, they needed his blood to end the curse. Years later, Will and Jack met and teamed up to save some Elizabeth Swann, because she took Will's gold and they assumed she was a Turner. In the end, they break the curse, killed Barbossa, and lived happily ever after." " Okay, three things I have to say to that. One, now I know where I got my name from. Two, if they killed Barbossa, how'd he kidnap us? And three, I think I know what he's going to do to us. He's going to maroon me on an island and drown...you.Jackie no." Lizzie said "That's why we traded names. After that fight, I knew your lungs wouldn't be strong enough to hold your breath and cut you shoelaces under water with your knife. So, give me the army knife, please." As she was handing it over, a pirate with a wood eye unlocked the cell. He grabbed both their arms and pushed them out. They held each other's arms as they climbed the stairs where the other gruesome pirates, and Barbossa, were waiting. Barbossa yelled out to everyone, "Who will be first? The sword fighting Whelp, or the cooperative boy?" Lizzie gave a nasty look at him when he said the word whelp. The crew chanted their answer, whelp. They ripped her out of Jackies arms and tied her arms and legs together. " Wait! I thought that I was supposed to be marooned?" she yelled as they approached the plank. "Yes. But then my revenge wouldn't be complete now, wouldn't it?" Barbossa responded. He approached Lizzie, who was now at the end, and simply pushed her off with the end of his sword. Jackie was running to the plank, but all the pirates were holding him back. As two cannons were being brought to him, he thought of one thing that just might save his and Lizzie's life. Then, he yelled it at the top of his lungs. "PARLEY!"
