Chapter Four

Ellen was too busy taking in the stranger's appearance that she didn't even notice him speak.

'Excuse me.' He said, looking down at Ellen with a smile, revealing a few golden teeth. He then became puzzled, as he noticed the other men that surrounded her.

'Are you ok love?' he asked, sounding quite concerned. Ellen didn't utter a word. She was too bewildered by the situation she was in and pretty scared too. The man could see the fear in her face; looked in the direction of the plump man and scowled;

'What are you doing here and what do you want?' he said sternly, swaying slightly.

'We could ask ye the same question. Besides who are ye to question our business?' the plump man replied, chuckling menacingly like he had done before, making Ellen shudder.

'Who you ask?' the other man retorted, 'I mate, am Captain Jack Sparrow, savvy?' the man now known as Jack concluded. The plump mans eyes widened as murmurs exploded amongst the group. However they soon went silent as Jack began to speak; 'So, as a personal request, go away' he said, grinning.

Pulling his act together, the plump pirate replied deviously; 'And if we refuse, what are ye going to do 'bout it?'

Jack let out a sigh and swiftly grabbed his pistol from his belt and pointed it in the direction of the plump man's fore head.

'Need I say anymore?' Jack questioned, whilst enjoying himself at the look of horror on the plump man's face. The man just looked at the floor, shuffling his feet. When he eventually looked up he scowled at the Captain, he then turned round and began to push his way through the group, which then quickly followed him.

Jack laughed to himself; he loved it when he got the upper hand (which wasn't very often). Then he turned to Ellen, who was staring at the floor. She hadn't really taken much notice about the conversation that had just taken place. Although she now knew that the stranger was called Jack.

'Are you ok love?' he repeated just as he had before. Ellen looked up and nodded. 'You're not from around here are you?' Jack questioned.

'No… No I'm not' Ellen stuttered.

'Well, where are you from?' he asked, very interested.

'The U.K' Ellen answered.

'Where?' Jack said, sounding very confused; which made Ellen realise what she'd just said.

'Oh – no, I mean England!' She quickly corrected herself.

'Well you don't sound very English…' Jack questioned. 'Well she doesn't sound like Will or Elizabeth… they're English… she has a different accent' he thought.

Ellen raised an eye brow; 'What? I don't sound English? Well what the bloody hell do I sound like then!' she thought, very puzzled.

Jack then looked at what she was wearing; she was in her school uniform; a white (well slightly dirty) shirt, blue tie, black trousers and shoes.

'What the hell are you wearing? You look like a eunique… like… like bloody Will!' Jack said cringing. Ellen looked down at her clothes; now realising she was in her school uniform and began to laugh at his reaction.

'Oh, it's my school uniform.' She said, trying to contain her giggles.

'School… you have to wear those for school?' Jack frowned.

'Yep, we've tried to get rid of 'em but failed,' she replied, shuffling her feet. Jack felt sorry for her and anyone else who had to wear the same, then he remembered he had more questions to ask her, clearing his throat he began to speak;

'So how did you get here and what's your name?' he asked.

'Well my names Ellen – Ellen Tellsing…' she looked at the floor again before continuing; 'and to be honest, I don't know how I got here…' she concluded truthfully. Jack scratched his head, puzzled by her answer. Meanwhile, Ellen wanted to ask Jack a couple of her own questions.

'Jack?' she began.

'Aye, and that's 'Captain' Jack by the way,' he ordered, emphasizing the word Captain.

'Sorry, Captain Jack' she said sarcastically; 'Where am I and what did those men want with me?' she curiously asked.

'You don't know where you are? You're in Tortuga missy, the biggest pirate port in the world!' he proudly said, emphasizing the size by spreading out his arms. He then shrugged and continued; 'And as for those men, they probably would have raped you or sold you off as a wench.'

Ellen's jaw hit the flaw; at the same time she pulled a face in disgust. 'Jack said that last part so casually…' she thought; Jack just laughed at the face she pulled. Shaking her head hoping to get rid of the thoughts of what could have happened to her, she began to talk;

'Well then, how do I know I can trust you?' she asked out of interest. Jack smirked, he new this was coming.

'Well, I just got rid of your followers didn't I? Also I'm a gentleman.' He said which made Ellen raise an eye-brow and then she looked at the floor;

'I guess…' she muttered. When she looked up, she found that the Captain wasn't there, but further down the road; she gasped in shock.

'Hey! Where are you going!' she shouted. Jack stopped and turned round.

'To my ship!' he yelled back, rolling his eyes.

'What about me!' Ellen desperately asked. Jack shrugged;

'Well you could either stay here (seeing the anger on her face at the suggestion he added) or you could come on me ship as a member of the crew. But, you're not wearing those clothes' He sniggered.

'WHAT!' Ellen screeched. 'I'm not wearing a bloody dress either if that's what you think!'

'That's ok, you can borrow some of the crew's clothes instead,' he said beginning to laugh as he started to walk down the road again. Ellen cringed at the thought. Jack stopped, turning around again.

'Oh, by the way!' he shouted, 'you do realise you'll have to do work?'

'Oh great,' Ellen thought sarcastically; but then what else could she do or where else could she go. 'Fine!' she yelled, beginning to run after him.

While she'd been on her little adventure, she hadn't realised she had her MP3 player around her neck until it hit her in the chest as she ran.

'Ow!' she gasped, catching the MP3 player in her hand. 'How did I not notice this before, when I was running from those men?' she thought. 'Maybe because you weren't bothered about anything else but the fact you were running to save your life' her conscience answered. 'Hmmm…' she agreed, pressing the on button; it still worked. 'Oh cool! This will be handy!' she exclaimed with joy.

Meanwhile Jack wondered where she was and turned round again. 'Oi! Hurry up or we might just have to leave without ye!' he barked.

Nodding, Ellen quickly turned the MP3 player off, took it from around her neck and shoved it in her pocket. She then continued to run after Jack.
