A/N: Sorry it's taken so long to update this! Thanks to my two reviewers!

Second and Final Chapter

After the little upset yesterday, let's just say things didn't go too well. First, Miss Swann, the Governer's daughter, fell off the battlements, and into the water. The new Commodore Norrington almost jumped in after her, but someone managed to stop him. That's what we hear, anyway. We didn't get to see any of it.

We also hear that Jack Sparrow is around these parts. Haven't seen him. Put him in prison, they did. Of course, then there was the cannon fire from what we heard to be the Black Pearl.

We lowly patrollers get all our information second-hand, you see.

Quite a fair bit of the town was damaged, some buildings were completely destroyed.

You might be wondering where Williams and I are today?

Why, patrolling, naturally.

I'm rather out of sorts today, I don't even know where we are patrolling, but we've been having a jolly good conversation anyway.

"Did you hear about the Commodore proposing to Miss Swann?" He asked me.

Ten steps forward, turn, ten steps back.

"Yes. What did he think, that she would fall to his feet and admit that she was madly in love with him?"

Williams snickered, even though my comment was not something I or anyone I know would consider witty.

"How do you think he asked her? D'ye think he begged?" Williams inquires of me.

"Maybe he didn't ask at all. Maybe he told her. 'Miss Swann, you will marry me. I will accept no arguments...' " Williams almost laughed at that one. I allowed myself a small chuckle, even though I didn't think any of what I was saying was really funny.

"Why do you think he wanted to jump after her? Is he suicidal?" Williams asks with a grin.

I don't reply to that. An officer has just stepped up to us, and if he heard us joking about the Commodore, we'd no longer have jobs.

"Jennings! You're being reassigned. Follow me."

I shoot a perplexed look at Williams, then follow the man.

I suppose the amusing conversations with Williams about Commodore Norrington have come to an end.

A true pity, that is.

A/N: And so ends my random little story about random little soldiers.

Replies to my reviewers:

Star Fata: Thank you.

Nakanna Lee: Here it is! Not as good as the first, but I had to tie it up somehow... I think Norrington is a good guy, just a little wacky where pirates are concerned. Did you see him in the second one? Oh, gosh. They really messed up the characters in the sequel.
