Chapter 28

Ruins

Alan made her way stealthily out of the castle, motioning to the crew that it was time to leave as she did. She was happy to see all of them were alive, some had cuts and bruises, a few had some wounds that would need stitching, but everyone was able to walk.

The crew followed her example and simply left the castle. The guards that had been engaging them, the few that remained, simply watched them leave. They weren't followed as they walked down the drive and out of the gate.

"Well?" Jon asked as they walked from the castle.

"Jessie is in a brothel in this town. Split up, find her," Alan ordered as she split up the pirates into groups. She nodded and let Donnie lead her group to the brothel he had visited the day of their arrival.

It was on the other side of the town, and it took them almost twenty minutes to walk to it. It was a grand house, a mansion really, and Alan stood looking at it in awe. She would never have guessed it was a whore house from looking at it.

"This is the place?" She asked. Donnie just smiled and nodded. Alan raised and eyebrow at him and pushed open the door. As the group entered a woman in a beautiful dress, that wouldn't have looked out of place in the palace, came running up to them with a large smile on her face.

"How can I help you gentlemen?" She asked.

"I want a girl," Alan said pushing through her group to stand in front of the woman.

"Oh I see," the woman smirked.

"I want a woman in her mid thirties, I want her to have brown eyes, and I want her to have blue eyes."

"Hmm, that's quite the list," the woman said rubbing her chin. Alan pulled out her full purse and held it in front of the woman.

"If you cannot accommodate me then I would be happy to look somewhere else."

"No, no, I think I have the perfect girl for you. Problem is she's not as lively as some of the others."

"Show me, I'll decide."

"And for you gentlemen?" The woman glanced at her group.

"We're just here for the lad," Donnie smirked.

The woman nodded and bid Alan follow her. She led Alan through a long hallway and up a flight of stairs. Alan was impressed by the hardwood floors and the white painted walls. She tried to ignore it as the woman led her deeper into the house. Finally she came to a stop in front of a large door. The woman pushed it open with a sly smile and led her inside to the bed.

Alan's eyes opened wide as she saw her sister laying spread eagle on the bed, her eyes rolling in her head, her body limp.

"She's perfect," Alan said with a nod. She smiled and pulled her katabos from their sheaths and hit the woman over the head. She didn't feel sorry for the woman as she fell lifeless on the floor. She had drugged her sister and let her be raped. The woman deserved worse.

Alan sat down next to her sister and moved her hair from her face. "Jessie, I'm sorry I didn't get here sooner." Jessie turned to look at her and she saw some sense return to her sisters eyes.

"Alan?" She whispered.

"Yes darling, we're going home now," Alan said as she lifted Jessie from the bed and moved to take her from this hell. Jessie's arms wrapped around Alan's neck as she walked down the hall and the flight of steps, no one moved to stop them.

The girls of the house had long thought it was wrong to drug the girl. They were happy to see her being rescued by the boy with dull blond hair that was as pretty as a girl.

Alan carried her to the front parlor where her crew was waiting. They jumped up when they saw Jessie and tried to grab her from Alan, who simply pulled away and walked out the front door.


The imposing group made their way back to the Pearl, gathering the rest of the crew as they went. Alan held her big sister in her arms tightly, glaring at anyone that would dare try to take her.

No one made any move to stop them as they walked up the harbor. Even the harbor master backed away from them as they marched to their rowboats and took off to the Black Pearl. It didn't take long to reach her home and when she did she reluctantly released her sister to Jon so she could climb up, then reached over the rails to help Jon lift her aboard.

Her father was no where to be seen and she didn't want to disturb him. She lightly grabbed her sister from Jon.

"Make way the way we came, we need to rendezvous with the Paradise, we'll need their help to get Logan. Jon, if you wouldn't mind steering?"

Jon nodded once, "aye, aye," he said and walked to the helm.

Alan nodded and took her sister to the cabin they shared, laying her down on her bed softly. Jessie was sleeping away the effects of the drugs, her eyelids fluttering slightly.

"I'm sorry," Alan whispered, laying down next to her and holding her close.


Jack lay close to his wife's sleeping form, holding her in his arms. When they had returned to the Pearl she had turned into a wild banshee, screaming and throwing things around his cabin.

After a while she had calmed down and fallen asleep. So now here he was, holding back the tears as he held her close and prayed for the return of her mind which his son had somehow broken.

Saihrena stirred in her sleep. "He killed her," she whispered.

Jack looked at her eyes, they were closed, she was asleep.

"It's my fault she's dead, he killed her because of me."

"Who, love?" He whispered.

"Juliana," a sob escaped her lips and Jack watched in horror as she began to sob and wail in her sleep.

"I'm here now love, everything will be okay love," Jack whispered soothingly. It only served to infuriate her though.

"Nothing will be okay, nothing," she screamed. Jack held on to her as she lashed around kicking and screaming in her sleep until she finally calmed down and fell silent. It was then that he let himself cry.


I don't own Jack Sparrow (sob) nor do I own the Black Pearl. Everything else I came up with in my own demented little mind though, just for you guys!
