Chapter 2
Disclaimer: The only thing I own is me, myself and I. Jeanne owns herself and the mouse owns the rest.
"So how did ye two manage to stowaway on me ship for so long without anyone noticin'? Jack inquired. He promptly sat down on a unlabeled barrel and uncorked a bottle of what Melissa guessed to be rum.
"Exactly how long have you been out to sea?" inquired Jeanne seeing that Melissa was drooling too much to talk.
"Well ye see I asked you a question first therefore ye answer first, savy?"
Jeanne sighed and rolled her eyes; she was growing impatient rather quickly. Noticing this Melissa returned her attention back to the problem at hand. "Why don't you let us out of this cell and then we'll answer your questions." Melissa requested.
"Why should I let ye two out when that one there" he said as he pointed at Jeanne "bludgeoned me with me own empty rum bottle."
Jeanne couldn't help smiling at the latter comment. "If we answer your stupid questions will you release us from this cell?"
"Again yer asking a question without answering mine first." Jack retorted with that sly grin of his.
"To be honest we don't even know how we got here, we just are. So now will you tell us how long you've been out to sea?" Melissa said noticing that Jeanne was done talking to the stubborn man.
"We've been out of port for about a couple of months. We should be putting in at Tortuga within the week to restock on supplies." Answered Jack while he got up and strolled to the cell. Pulling out a ring of keys he began to work at the lock.
That was until Gibbs ran in saying "Cap'n a merchant ship has been spotted on the horizon."
I am truly sorry this chapter is so short but I've been busy lately. I'm also working on another story that should be up within a few days. Plus I seem to be suffering from writers block on this story and writing it is painfully slow. So bear with me please my readers, all three of you.
