I am SO sorry about not adding another chapter for so long!!! I could have this whole chapter just how I am so sorry about that. But a lot's been going on and I haven't had a lot of time for writing Chapter 11, and so I put it off until now. A little writers block has also been involved in this huge delay, but anyway. Here's Chapter 11, ENJOY!
Even though Elinor demanded Jessie get some sleep, Jessie knew she wouldn't be able to. So as soon as Elinor had fallen asleep, Jessie snuck up to the top deck and just slouched down on a side of the Interceptor and waited for it to dock. The night slowly went by and soon the sun started to rise. Men scurried along, being given orders and giving orders. Jessie stood up, and noticed land nearby. The sight of it made her sick. Not because it was land in general, but because she knew it was Port Royal. And her freedom was slowly being sucked out of her the closer they got to it.
Elinor had awoken from the commotion and slowly made her way up the stairs from below deck. She walked over to Jessie and tried to put a friendly smile on her face, like nothing was wrong. Like she hadn't just kidnapped Jessie from freedom.
"You haven't gotten one minute of sleep, young lady!" Elinor said sternly, the friendly smile wiped straight from her face.
"Your mistaken, I just woke up" Jessie said calmly, the effect of seeing Port Royal again made Jessie turn into a statue.
Elinor sighed, and put one hand on the side of the ship to steady herself, as the ship was starting to dock
Jessie heard footsteps coming from below deck and listened intently, a few minutes' later two redcoats and a shackled Jack appeared.
"I was rooting for you. Know that." Jack said with some last minute attempts of gaining freedom.
After Jessie rolled her eyes at Jack, she felt something around her shoulder and saw that Elinor had her arm around her, as if 'protecting' her. Jessie harshly pushed her arm off herself.
Jessie then gulped; she knew she shouldn't have done that. She would have to act like she suspected nothing of Elinor. And she would have to act all nice and get on Elinor's good side, so she didn't suspect anything of her. Jessie knew that was the only way to save Jack, and herself for that matter. Rescuing Jack was Jessie's own free ticket out of Port Royal, and she would have to be dead to miss it.
Just then Jack looked over his shoulder to see Jessie, he was surprised she was here. He was surprised he was even here. He had no idea how he had gotten from his ship to this one or how he had woke up in a brig. He had no idea what was even going on. But after he saw Jessie, he looked to whom she was standing by. Jack gasped, that women looks so familiar, he thought to himself. But yet Jack didn't know who she was. So he turned his head back around.
Soon the Interceptor was docked and Jack was being led off the ship, toward prison no doubt. Norrington and a few others were behind Jack, but the Commodore waited for all others to get off the ship before he did so. Thus, Jessie and Elinor were right behind Norrington and a few others who were right behind Jack. Jessie knew she didn't dare try to do anything to rescue Jack now; it was preposterous to even think about it. But, Jessie did find an advantage to where she was. So Jack, what prison are you fortunate to enjoy? Jessie thought to herself. Jessie was now even thinking to herself in a normal manner of English. She knew only one word out of her mouth that even hinted pirate talk, would erase everything she had done to gain Elinor's trust back. So she wasn't taking any chances. Jessie then strained to hear what the others in front of her were saying.
"That old lady sure is a pickle." Jessie heard one redcoat say that was in front of Norrington.
"And I'm sure your not a nuisance!" said the other redcoat slightly louder then his friend right beside him.
"Oh, look who's talking," said the first redcoat.
Just then Norrington passed through the two arguing redcoats and towards the two that were by Jack's side.
"Take him away" Norrington said like he said it every day of his life, and then he said no more, but still stood behind Jack and the two redcoats. Soon the two redcoats by Jack's side started walking faster. And then they turned a corner and Jessie couldn't see anymore of Jack, or where he was going.
Jessie was puzzled why Norrington didn't specify which prison to take Jack too. But then it hit her. How stupid am I? Of course! Port Royal only has one prison! Jessie thought with slight smirk on her lips. In only a matter of a few days, she would deceive Elinor, break Jack out of prison and free herself from the dreaded Port Royal. Life was looking up from the gloom Jessie had experienced on the Interceptor. Now, if only deceiving Elinor, breaking Jack out of prison and escaping Port Royal could be said to be easy, Jessie thought to herself with a small sigh.
Then Jessie recognized the driveway that led to the dreaded house Jessie had just left a couple days ago. "We're home!" Jessie heard Elinor say in a cheery way that left her even more suspicious of Elinor then before.
