"Aaaaah!!!" the shouts filled the small kitchen instantly as the four of us faced the five newcomers. The others stood. Brushing themselves off and looking scared to death were none other than Commodore Norrington, Captain Barbossa, Elizabeth Swann, Will Turner, and Captain Jack Sparrow. My plastic cutlass still raised, but not much protection against Jack's, Norrington's, Will's and Barbossa's real metal swords and cutlasses, I backed up into Anna, Alicia and Chelsea, who had already dropped their weapons helplessly to the ground.
"Oh...my...God..." Chelsea said softly.
"Keira...that's--that's---that's Jack Sparrow! And Norrington! And Elizabeth and Will and Barbossa!" Alicia said.
"I know that." I said calmly.
"But how on earth--?" Anna started.
"I don't know that." I said. Jack and Norrington both stepped forward, eagar to be the first to take charge of the situation. They both brandished their swords at me, apparently I appeared to be the leader and I dropped my toy to the linolium. Clearly my choice of clothing hadn't been good that day, my shirt said 'kiss me I'm a pirate' and my sword was piratey and everything else was piratey, and facing the scourge of piracy in the Spanish Main with all that on unarmed wasn't a good thing.
"A pirate?" Norrington said, ready to slit my throat.
"A pirate?" Jack said, ready to hug my neck. I tried to regain my calm and stand straight, but when you're about to be killed or hugged by a fictional character, that's a hard thing to do. "What's your name?" Jack asked me.
"K-k-k-Keira." I managed to sputter.
"Aah. I see. I'm--"
"Jack!" Alicia exclaimed. Everyone turned to look at her. "Sorry."
"How do you know my name?"
"It's difficult to say." Chelsea said.
"We'll explain later." Anna said.
