"Just give me my hat back please!" Bethany whined.
"Just like your father," grunted Beckett, "Now tell me how is it you're… well…"
"A cat?" She finished for him. He nodded in response.
"Well where to start?" She said with a grin on her face.
"Well the pirate you know as father was in Tortuga drunk. He met a girl and they went into a little closet. Father won't tell me what happened in the closet but that's beside the point. I was born and mother sent me away to Father. He took me to Calypso and she was outraged that Jack had a baby so as punishment she turned me into a cat," She told the story quite accurately and turned into a black cat on the last syllable.
"How… interesting," Beckett managed to say then thought to himself, 'This girl could be the downfall of Jack Sparrow…' A grin slowly crept up his face.
Bethany, now human again (making sure to keep her ears and tail), got up and wriggled her hands free. "Simple. All you need is a wriggle. And now, Beckett, I bid you Adieu."
She turned into a cat and started to run but in her haste she didn't notice Beckett pull the trigger on his gun.
The shot ran right into the cat's heart and she fell.
When Beckett walked over the cat (now girl, yes it is very confusing I know) was dead. No heartbeat. Not breathing. Just Dead.
Then all of a sudden she sat up! (She sat up?) Yes, she sat up and startling Beckett at the same time.
"Four down, five to go," she purred.
"Five what?"
"Lives," she replied, "A cat has nine lives. Used my first one falling from a mast. Next in a sword fight, I won anyway. Third when I got hung in some other port and last one here!"
"That's quite a life… err lives."
"Indeed, and I'd appreciate it if you don't shoot me a gain even though I'm completely healed because it isn't very polite to shot a cat now is it?" She asked changing into cat form. And with that she jumped out the window into the ocean. As she hit the water (You guessed it) she changed back and started swimming towards the Silver Queen, the ship she sailed upon.
Beckett watched until all he could see was her hair and little ears sticking out of it.
"She is something isn't she?" Beckett asked himself, "She is something."
