It's time for another chapter! tisk tisk on all of u! Such a small flow of reviews! Shame! lol. . No big thing. Just make sure it doesn't happen again! hehe. Well I hope you all like this chp...hey I was surprised how many of you want Jack and Terra together...lol. Well w/o further ado...
Jack and Terra continued there to the other side of the island. It was about half past 3 when they got into a small town ...town royal.
"Jack I'm tired." Terra said as they made there way threw searching for any sign of Will.
"We'll be there soon." he said.
The town's houses were far apart from each other. They were separated by miles and miles of trees and animals. The day had turned stormy as clouds blocked out the sun. Terra sighed as they went up to a big house.
"This is it." Jack said.
"What is it?" Terra asked.
"Will's house." he said. "He knows me...I think he can help."
"Help with what?"
"Oh nothing love. Nothing."
He went to the door and knocked. There was quiet then a woman answered the door. Her brown hair was tied in a loose bun and her eyes sparkled like the ocean in the sun. She wore a pale pink dress. She stared at them.
"Um...hello?" she asked.
"Elizabeth." Jack said. "Good to see ya. is Will here?"
"He's in the den but..." Jack went by her leaving her very confused. "...who are you?"
"Hi. I'm Terra by the way." Terra said. "That short thing was Jack. He said he knew somebody who lived here named Will...tell me we're in the right place...right?"
Elizabeth nodded.
"Yes you are but..." she said. "The only Jack we know isn't a kid..."
Jack went into the den. He saw his friend Will behind a desk scratching his head. There were papers spread out all around. Jack went up right in front of him.
"Will." he said.
Will looked up.
"Um...hello." he said. "who are you?"
He stared at the door then back at Will.
"It's me Jack." he said. "You're not gonna believe this but..."
"wait." Will stopped him. "Jack who?"
"Sparrow..." he said. "It's me Will. I dunno what happed...I'm on the ship everything is good. Then a big wind comes and knocks me off the ship. I wake up on the beach..." he spread his arms out. "...and I'm 17...Now I'm thinking this is a curse but I can't really go after the blokes who did it because I got a girl with me. She didn' know how ta fight or anything."
But Will shook his head.
"Prove your Jack." he said.
Jack stopped.
"I...I don' know how..." he said. "But it's me."
"Whatever you say kid."
The words hit Jack. Will...didn't believe him? Will...Jack stopped.
"But...Come on Will." he said. "It's me...Jack...we sailed all around the ocean together...I helped you save your wife...don't' ya believe me?"
Will smiled and got up. He went with Jack to the door.
"If you figure a out a way to prove it to me...come back."
Then he went back to the den. Jack stared blankly at him and went outside. The gray clouds now covered the sky. Terra was outside waiting for him.
"well?" she asked. "can he help?"
"No." Jack sighed. "Now we're stuck here with out a boat...We'll have to steal another then...come on love. Let's go."
They left the house and went into the forest of trees. It was unusually cool in there. They went along in silence. Then there was a rustle behind them.
"what's that?" Terra asked.
"Nothing come on."
They kept going then suddenly there was a horrible sound. A huge animal emerged from the bush. It had ash black fur all over it's body and long white sharp teeth that sparkled with spit and dry spots of blood. It's eyes glittered dangerously as it let out a blood thirsty howl. Jack and Terra froze.
"Is that a wolf?" Terra managed as the large animal began to circle them. It snarled lowly.
"I...don't bloody know." he said back.
suddenly the animal stopped and went towards them. Jack moved out of the way as did Terra but that just made the animal more mad. Foam started to ooze from it's mouth. It's eyes were the color of dried blood and they seemed to glow like the moon. It lunged at Terra.
"TERRA."
Jack got in the way of the creature. They tumbled to the ground as it attacked him. It ripped viciously at his neck and arms. Terra picked up a huge rock a threw it at the creature. It turned on her. Terra threw her arms up to protect herself as she felt it's long teeth sink into her arms. She yelled in pain as she felt something drip down her arm. It was a mix of the creature's drool and her blood. Terra picked up her feet and kicked it in the gut. It yipped and flew back. Terra went by Jack. He was covered in blood. So much she didn't know where the cuts started. His whole sleeve had been ripped off his arms and blood now stained his shirt. Terra shook him.
"JACK! JACK!" but he wouldn't wake up.
Terra could feel the creature's eyes on her and a chill traveled down her spine. She grabbed the sword Jack had and thrust it between her and the monster. It leapt at her and she swung cutting off it's ear. It screamed in pain as blood gushed from the wound and the furry mound of ear fell to the ground with a "thump." The black fur was now knotted with blood as it snarled and circled her. Terra kept the sword out in front of her. She stared at Jack who was pale and there seemed to be more blood now.
"Don't die Jack..." she whispered. "Please don't die..."
Will sighed and went into the kitchen where his wife was.
"What was that all about?" she asked.
Will sighed then laughed.
"That kid said he was Jack...said he was under a pirate curse and he needed my help." he sighed and kissed his wife. Elizabeth shook her head.
"Well that's weird." she said then she noticed the look on his face. "You don't believe him...do you?"
"Well...if pirates can go around being corpses in the moon light then maybe...Oh I don't know Elizabeth. He might be...but I doubt it."
Suddenly there was a yell from the other side of the house. It sounded like a girl. It was almost like a cry of pain. Will looked out the door.
"what was that?" he asked.
Elizabeth put down the tea she was drinking.
"I don't know..." she sighed. "You're gonna go check it out aren't you?"
"Yeah."
"I'll come with you." she said.
Will nodded and smiled.
"I knew there was a reason I loved you." he said as he kissed her.
He went out into the hall and before he left grabbed his sword.
Terra's hands shook as she clutched the sword in her hands. The beast growled as it got nearer and nearer. She leapt to the side and it followed looking more pissed then ever, The blood that flowed down her arms became more now as her cut had got worse. The creature looked ready to pounce as Terra stuck the sword out. It barked and was about to attack when somebody came up behind it and stabbed it though the back. The creature let out a final howl of pain and died at her feet it's blood making a pool around her. Terra was still clutching the sword and shaking as Elizabeth came over to her. She touched Terra's quivering shoulders gently.
"It's alright." she said softly. "Let go of the sword. It can't hurt you now."
Terra dropped the sword to the ground and it gave a hollow clunk. She stared at them.
"J...Jack." she sobbed. "P...Please help...Ja...Jack."
A tear of relief and shock to be alive fell down her face and left a clean streak through the dirt. Then she felt her knees give away and she collapsed into the floor. Elizabeth gasped as Will went over to help Jack. He was still breathing but in bad shape. Then suddenly he noticed something on his arm. Through the blood he made out a tattoo. Of a sparrow. Jack's tattoo.
"Elizabeth?" Will's voice sounded far away. "I don't think he was lying..."
...ooo! Now it's time to push ze review button! lol. Well until next time.
