The sun was beating down on the Decks of the Black Pearl. Jack Sparrow stood off to the side, staring off into the distance... Nervous would be the best word to describe the way he looked. But he tried his best way to hide it. In fact, whenever someone approached, he changed his expression completely.

"Captain?" Jack ignored the voice completely. "Captain"
Jack Sparrow Spun around to see a chubby but tall, unshaved, and dirty pirate standing before him. "What do you want!!!"

"we are arriving in port royal soon."

Jack nodded. "what is your name again?" he asked in his normal Jack sparrow kind of way.

"...um- Fafell"
"what kind of name is that?" Jack asked .

Fafell shrugged and turned around to leave. Jack stopped him. "Because it seems to me-" He took a few steps forward and continued."a pirate like you should have a nice- strong name"
Faffel looked surprised."you really think so"
"yes! in fact-"

Jack stopped to emphasize the moment. Faffel's eyes lit up, eager for more. Jack put his arm around the man's shoulder and they began to take a stroll around the ship, as though they'd been best friends all they're lives. Even though Jack had only met him for the first time within the past 5 minutes.

" in fact what"
"In fact- I think someone like you DESERVES a true pirates name."

Faffel stopped to consider what his captain had said. "so what do I do?"

"I suggest you don't continue to use this...name"
"why"
"the rest of the crew may begin to cosider you as...well...Un-man-like"
Faffel gasped in horror, unaware that Jack was only reeling him into one of his schemes.
"what should I say my name is now?"

"No no no no no!" Jack shouted. "you can't just CHANGE your name. The captain has to present you with your new name. I get to choose it. I get to give it to you. I only have to do that if I feel you deserve it."

"But you just said-"

"no I did'nt. I said you LOOK like you deserve it. Which means you still have to prove me right. That is- Unless you want to be viewed as...feminine."

"no sir! grant me with my new pirate title. I deserve it! I swear I do! Just tell me what I must do to show you!"

Faffel was now on his knees. With Jack standing over him, grinning as though he'd won an endless battle. He snapped his compass open then shut. Fiddled with his sword. then took a quick glance at the sky, Faffel staring at him all the while. Finally Jack replied.

"Yes. I do have something I need you to do. But I don't want anyone else to know about it. so meet me in my cabin."

Faffel took off for the stair's, and jolted down them as if It were a race. After he was gone Jack muttered to himself.

"People are so convincible"
"Actually I think the word your looking for is 'gullible'"

Jack turned to see a figure hiding in the shadows. Suddenly they emerged and stepped out into the blinding sun. It was Mr. Gibbs. Standing there with his arms crossed and a frown spread across his face.
"I heard everything." He said.
"Everything?" Jack muttered staring at the ground.
"Aye Captain. and I know your up to something."
