A/N: Okay, so this is the new revised chapter. My friend Katharine, I discovered, does not like Orlando Bloom. At all. So sorry to all the Orlando Bloom fan girls out there. I think he's hot too, but Katharine doesn't, so… That's why this chapter's been revised. I still hope you like it!
Disclaimer: None of these characters are mine, and, for legal reasons, my friends don't belong to me either. And some of the lines that my friends say have been taken from them without permission as well, just so we're all clear…
Chapter One: Katharine's Tale
Katharine: (materializes out of nowhere and looks confused until she notices Will Turner) Oh my gosh. Orlando Bloom.
Will: Um… I'm sorry, but you must have me confused with someone else. My name is Will Turner, not Or— Or— whoever you said.
Katharine: What are you talking about? (looks around) Wait, where are we?
Will: Gardener's Lane.
Katharine: No, the town.
Will: Why, Port Royal, of coarse. (starts to walk away)
Katharine: Whoa whoa whoa. Are you saying I'm in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie?
Will: Movie?
Katharine: Nevermind. I'm gonna stick with you until I can figure out what's going on.
Will: (thinks for a minute) I suppose it'd be all right. What's your name?
Katharine: Katharine.
Will: Well, Katharine, I can't assure you a good time. I'm a blacksmith and it can get a bit boring—
Katharine: Oh who cares about that? Maybe I can meet Jack!
Will: Yes well. Best to be on our way.
(They walk a little ways.)
Katharine: Where are we going anyway?
Will: Back to the blacksmith shop where I work.
Katharine: Oh yeah. You just delivered that sword to Elizabeth's dad, huh? That flippy trick you did with it was awesome! Ever watched the blooper reel on the Bonus Disc? You dropped it so many times. (laughs out loud)
Will: How did you know I delivered that sword? And what's a— a blooper reel?
Katharine: Uh, nevermind. It's not really important. Just be careful when we get to the shop. I don't know how my being here might mess with the story line.
Will: Why should I be careful and what—?
Katharine: Because I said so. And if you hurt Jack, you die.
Will: (looking confused and suspicious) What—?
Katharine: Hey look! Troops searching through barrels!
Will: (turns around and looks at the troops) That's strange. What are they searching for, do you suppose?
Katharine: It worked? I mean, I don't know. Norrington's wig?
Will: (glares at her and turns to the nearest soldier) What are you looking for?
Soldier: An escaped pirate. Apparently, he threatened to kill the Governor's daughter as a ruse so as for him to get away.
Will: (looks angry)
Katharine: Oh calm down already. It's not like Jack hurt her or anything.
Will: Jack? Do you know that pirate? (looks at her suspiciously)
Katharine: No, Orlando, no. I, um… Where I come from… um, we call every pirate Jack. Yeah.
Will: Oh. (pauses for a long moment) And my name is Will. Will.
Katharine: Oh, right. Sorry.
(They walk together in silence. Will seems preoccupied until they reach the blacksmith shop.)
Katharine: (pauses outside the door) Remember what I said. (walks into the shop)
Will: (calling after her) But, what did you say? (follows her inside, notices Mr. Brown) Right where I left you. (smiles)
Katharine: (glances at hammer) Not where he left you.
Will: (gives her a quizzical look)
Katharine: (using another Pirates line) Sorry mate. Couldn't resist.
Will: (begins to say something but, noticing Jack's hat, stops and reaches to pick it up)
Jack: (slaps Will's hand with a sword)
Will: (takes a step back) You're the one they're hunting. The pirate.
Hannah: (stepping forth from the shadows) Darn right he is.
Jack: (to Hannah) Please, please, try not to do anything stupid.
Hannah: I don't do stupid things. I do not-too-bright things.
Katharine: Hannah?
Hannah: Katharine?
Hannah and Katharine: What're you doing here?! (pause) I asked you first!
Will and Jack: You know her?
Katharine: Yes, we're—
Hannah: No! Never seen her before in my life.
Katharine: (whispering through her teeth) What are you doing?
Hannah: (whispering back) Saving your neck!
Will: Right then, two pirates in one go.
Hannah: Must be you're lucky day.
Katharine: No kidding. I mean, you scalawag… person!
Will: Katharine, run for the troops! Quickly, get out of here before you get hurt!
Katharine: Are kidding? And miss all the swash-buckling action that's about to unfold?
Hannah: What are you, an info-mercial? Look, can we just get back to the script?
Will and Jack: (look confused)
Hannah: (sighs exasperatedly) Here, I'll do it. (turns to Will) You look somewhat familiar. Have I— he (points at Jack) ever threatened you before?
Will: (glances at Hannah, but keeps his eyes on Jack; he is the one with the weapon after all) I make a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates.
Jack: Ah, well, then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record. So if you'll excuse us… (walks to the door, Hannah at his side)
Will: (grabs a nearby sword and points it a Jack while pushing Katharine behind him)
Katharine: Hey!
Jack: (turns around and is about to say something when Hannah interrupts)
Hannah: Do you think this wise, boy? Crossing blades with a pirate?
Jack: (looking puzzled) Took the words right outta my mouth.
Will: He threatened Miss Swann.
Jack: Only a little.
(They parry a little.)
Jack: You know what you're doing, I'll give you that. Excellent form—
Hannah: Yeah yeah, but how's his footwork?
Katharine: Quoting the lines, Hannah?
Hannah: Shut up!
Katharine: Whatever.
Will: Excuse me, but ladies? We're in the middle of something…?
Katharine: Right, sorry. Continue.
Jack: Very well then. If I step here— (steps) Very good. Now I step again. (steps… again; thrusts his sword at Will, making him take a step back) Ta. (makes for the front door, Hannah hurrying to catch up)
Will: (throws sword which gets imbedded into the door just above the latch)
Katharine: As much as I hate to admit it, that was actually pretty cool.
Jack: (looks stunned while trying to pull the sword out of the door; he can't; turns back to Will) That is a wonderful trick. Except, once again, you are between me and my way out. And now, you have no weapon.
Will: (reaches behind him and grabs the closest thing; a sword with a heated tip)
(They fight some more… whoo.)
Jack: (noticing all the swords) Who makes all these?
Katharine: Who do you think?
Will: I do! And I practice with them—
Katharine: Three hours a day!
Will: Yes. How did you know?
Hannah: Who's quoting lines now?
Katharine: Shut up.
Jack: But fortunately, I know the point. And that is, you need to find yourself a girl, mate. Or perhaps the reason you practice three hours a day is that you already found one, and are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You're not a eunuch are you?
Katharine: (snort)
Will: I practice three hours a day so that when I meet a pirate, I can kill it!
(They continue fighting, which I'm sure I don't need to describe. You've all seen the movie I'm sure, so you know what ensues. Therefore, let us skip ahead…)
Jack: (rips open a bag of sand and pours it on Will)
Will: (gets the sand out of his eyes and points his sword at Jack, who is pointing a pistol at Will's face) You cheated!
Jack, Hannah, and Katharine: Pirate!
Jack: How do you keep doing that?
Katharine: Get used to it, we do that a lot.
Hannah: (shrugs) I've just always wanted to say that.
Soldiers Outside: (bang on door)
Will: (moves in front of the back door)
Jack: Move away.
Will: No.
Jack: Please move.
Will: No! I cannot just step aside and let you escape.
Jack: This shot is not meant for you.
Will: (looks confused)
Hannah: Jack, lookout!
Mr. Brown: (hits Jack over the head with a bottle)
Soldiers Outside: (bust down the door and storm inside)
Katharine: Ouch. Who knew rum would betray him like that?
Hannah: Jack! (rushes to his side)
Norrington: Excellent work Mr. Brown. You've assisted in the capture of a dangerous fugitive.
Hannah: Jack's not dangerous, you idiot!
Norrington: Make that two fugitives. (to the room at large) Well, I trust you will always remember this as the day that Captain Jack Sparrow almost escaped. Take them away.
Hannah: No, you can't do that! Let me go!
Katharine: It's okay Hannah! Will— We'll get there eventually!
Hannah: Shut up and do something now!
Katharine: Don't criticize me! I'm trying to be supportive!
Hannah: Supportive?! I'm getting dragged off to jail with Jack! (pauses a minute) Wait a minute. I'm getting dragged off to a jail with Jack Sparrow. (thinks a moment) Dreams do come true!
Katharine: No fair! You get Jack Sparrow and I'm stuck with bloody Will Turner? Fate hates me!
Hannah: Take me away boys! (holds out wrists which are promptly clapped into shackles)
Jack: (in a fit of subconsciousness) Shut up, you bloody wenches! You're givin' me a headache… (slurs off back into unconsciousness)
A/N: Okay, so I hoped you liked the revised chapter! Sorry Katharine, hope you like this version better, because it's the one that's sticking! Thanks for rereading, bye!
A/N: Well that's the official first chapter. Sorry it took me longer than expected, but I had relatives visiting so there wasn't much time to type. Anyway, hope you liked it. Sorry if I quoted the movie too much, but it had to be believable. Well, at least the part about them being in the movie had to be. And thanks to my beta, Hannah, who is posting my story and gave me some lines to use, as stated in my disclaimer. Well that's it. I hope to have the next couple of chapters up by September. The next chapter shall feature my friend Sydney with Elizabeth. Any story ideas are welcome. Thanks and don't forget to review!
