Chapter Nine: I'm Going Captain!

When we reached outside and the bridge, near the ocean. Jack lead us to which was the bridge, we stopped.

"We're going to steal the ship?" Will asked, looking at the ship in front of us, known as the Interceptor. Very fast ship for being as small as it was.

"That ship?" Will asked, confused. I sighed.

"No, William, we're here to ask for it." I said. He looked at me as did Jack.

"What do you mean, we? It's just me and this young lad going on this adventure." Jack said. I gasped.

"I-I…I'm going Captain Sparrow, and there's nothing you're going to do to stop me." I said, angrily. Will looked at 'Captain' Jack.

"It's not smart to argue with her, Jack. In the end she always wins." Will warned. Jack looked at him like he was crazy.

"Nonsense. She's not going...You're not going." he said to Will then me. Then I thought of something.

"Oh, I see. Then I won't be able to tell you, of what happened on the Black Pearl." I said and turned around walking away.

"Wait! What do you mean, what happened?" he asked grabbing my arm to stop me. I looked at him.

"I'll tell you once we bored the Interceptor. Captain Sparrow." I said. He sighed.

"Fine you can go. Just, go onto the Interceptor. I plan to take that ship. I don't want a woman getting hurt." he said. I smiled.

"Ok. How do you plan to steal the ship, Captain Sparrow?" I said, feeling hatred rise within me…he was going to be the reason I could tell.

"Commandeer. We're going to commandeer that ship. Nautical term. One question about your business, boy or there's no use going. This girl…How far are you willing to go to save her?" Jack asked, and then he looked at me. I looked back, and turned my head from him.

"I'd die for her." I heard Will say. I looked at him and gasped.

"Oh my. That's what you call a real true love." I whispered, knowing they didn't hear me.

"Oh, good. No worries, then." Jack said and turned around. I stepped in front of him.

"What is it now, woman?" he asked. I blinked; I was going to be nice to him. I narrowed my eyes at him, the smiled sweetly to Will.

"I just wanted to say…be careful Will." I said and turned around. I heard Jack mumble something, but not what he said.

I went to the Interceptor.

"Father?" I asked seeing him. He turned to me a worried expression on his face. I knew how he felt, but I couldn't stand not doing anything.

"What, Shyla?" he asked. I smiled.

"May I go? I'm as worried as you are. I promise not to be in the way. I wish to see, Liz as soon as she's saved." I lied and yet told the truth at the same time. He smiled.

"Oh, yes, yes of course you may go my dear daughter. Just don't argue with the Commodore." he said, warning me. I nodded.

"No need to, father. I wouldn't want to make a fuss of things, worse then they are now." I said. He smiled, and I sat down, waiting for us to move. Then I felt us moving…I wasn't planning on getting off.

"Come Shyla, we must get off for the moment." father said. I looked at him.

"I'm just going to set here. I'm tired, don't worry, nothing bad will happed to me father. I promise, but please. I need some rest." I lied. He nodded.

"Yes. Yes of course, just rest." he said and walked off the boat.

I heard Norrington and his crew fuss about something, I smiled and guessed what it was.

(In the House)

I walked to the house and sat in the living room. I seen Lizzy setting there and I smiled at her.

"Are you feeling better, sis?" I asked. She looked at me and smiled.

"Yes...I guess you can say I am. How are you? I think I over heard you and Norrington discussing something." she stated. I sighed.

"He was just being his pompus self again. It's a shame, really. If he wasn't so arrogant. He'd actually be a nice man...but, can't hope when there is no hope now can you?" I more like said instead of asked. She nodded with a smile.

"Yes, that's true. So...I saw you eyeing Sparrow. What was that about?" she asked, my eyes went wide and I gasped.

"Nothing. I was not eyeing him. I was just, seeing what he would do."

"Sure...that's what you say. I seen him looking at you, while I was cathing my breath. I think he may fancy you."

"You must have swallowed too much sea water." I said, and she only laughed.

"No..I just saw what I saw."

"Yes...you're eyes are playing dirty tricks on you. Come on...it's time for bed. We've had a long day. Will was worried for you I'm sure." I said as we made our way upstrais.

"You're crazy."

"No. I simply know what I know. But tell me, why not just tell him you love him, Elizabeth?"

"I-I don't love him."

"I'm not blind, you both are but I'm not. I see the way you look at each other."

"What way?"

"You're in love, yet you deny it. Embrace it, and get on with it already. Now...I'm going to bed. I'm tried. Goodnight, and sleep well."

"You too." she said and hugged me, I hugged her back and walked into my room.
