Origins of A Pirate
Chapter 17
She hated it.
Every minute of it.
The hours went by, toiling and tumbling with great burden.
She had no company.
No friends.
No one to liven up her day.
Only a crew.
And her father.
A collection of old seamen hardly willing to converse.
She missed the days when this was fun.
When she could spend the day laughing.
The troubles vanished when he was around.
But he was gone.
And he was never coming back.
Ginny sighed. She knew life on the Green Eyed Monster suited her no longer. She had officially been pirating for four years now, all the while hoping that Jack would come back, preforming some sort of miraculous escape. It was possibly impossible, but if anyone could escape the noose, it was her brother.
But she had lost all hope.
Jack was dead.

"But how... how in the name of the Anglican church did you manage to do that?"
"A dolphin is a very intelligent animal, mate. It understands both vocal and body commands. If you simply manage to gain it's trust it will do most ever you like."
"Kind of like a dog!"
"Exactly. Now keep in mind had to gain its trust rather quickly, as I was being chased by near 100 of the finest in the kings navy."
"And you survived?!"
"I'm Captain Jack Sparrow! Of course I survived! Besides... how would I ever have made it here if I was six feet under?"
The group of men all chuckled. It was amazing how a young man of just nineteen could weave a story that was convincing to the most scrutinizing of eyes. And to think most of them were two if not three times Jack's age. But Jack had known from the start that they were drunk. They were always drunk. And he was not.
He never had liked liquor.
And he especially hated rum.
