Everybody was surprised at Achmed's flee. They didn't expect the him to do that. While the others were wondering what to do, Levy was gathering his stuff. Nobody noticed what the small boy was doing until Arvin looked in his direction.
"What are you doing levy?" he asked, sounding a bit suspicious. The others looked at Levy too. He looked everyone in the eye, and stated: "I'm going after Achmed." He saw how Collin frowned, and he felt anger boiling up in his stomach.
"unbelievable!" he exclaimed. "Tell me you aren't planning on leaving him out there on his own?" With every word he said, Levy's voice was getting louder. He grabbed his dagger and stuck it between his trousers and his belt. "Is anybody coming with me?"
No one had said a word, and most of the others avoided his gaze. "Fine then, I'll go by myself." He snapped. He turned around, and started to walk away. If Levy was honest, he would have to admit He was really scared. Just like Achmed, he didn't have much knowledge about the 17'th century, let alone a fictional version of it. So just wandering off in to it wasn't exactly appealing.
Someone put a hand on his shoulder, and Levy relaxed a bit. "I'll come with you, alright?" Levy turned around, and saw Aaron, whose face was completely serious for once. The knot Levy felt in his stomach started to loosen a bit, and he cracked a smile at Aaron.
Collin walked up to the two. "When you two find Achmed, bring him home safe alright?" Levy gave him a smile too. "Even when we don't meet here, we'll see you back home." With that, he and Aaron walked away.
Yuri sighed, drawing the attention of the others to him. "Can anyone explain to me why there are three of us gone right now?" he asked. Mary shrugged, she didn't really know what to think about this whole matter. "I guess we should try to find the pearl." She said softly.
It wasn't hard for the six to find the ship with the black sails, the Black Pearl was the first ship in the harbor. A man with black hair in dreadlocks pranced over the deck of the ship. He was talking to a plump man, who obviously felt a bit nervous. Martin motioned for the small group to come after him, and walked on board of the ship.
The man didn't notice the newcomers, he was too busy ranting about the shortage of crewmembers. Ann and Mary looked at each other, and Ann raised an eyebrow. Martin coughed, and the man turned around quickly, his dreadlocks swirling after him.
He took a step closer, and examined the brown haired man. "you look really familiar," he stated. "Have I threatened you before?" Martin tilted his head. "I really don't think so captain…" he said. "Jack, Captain Jack Sparrow." Jack stated proudly.
"the youngest captain the Black Pearl has ever known." He paused dramatically. "and her first one." Martin grinned. "Is this captain still searching for a crew?" he asked, and Jack nodded. "Well, I have some strong young people who want to help you out." Jack looked at Collin, Yuri and Arvin. "we can always use strong men."
"What about us, captain?" Ann asked, as she saw he didn't look in their direction. Jack turned, so he could face her, and she slowly started to smirk. "Well, that depends, darling. Can you and your friend 'entertain' my men?"
Ann didn't know how to react, but Mary strode forward. "Do you know who I am?" she asked cocky. She hoped her acting was convincing, and she continued. "My father, Cornelius Northman, is one of the most important captains of the Dutch traiding company! Don't expect me or my best friend to lower ourselves to 'entertainment' for your lousy crew. Besides that, you need all people you can get" She snapped.
She waited for his response, but she didn't drop her arrogant attitude. Jack looked surprised, just like her friends, but slowly started to grin. "very well, my lady, I'll have mister Gibbs show your friends the sleeping deck, and Mr. Cotton will take you and your friend to your cabin." When said Gibbs' name he motioned to the plump man, and Cotton was a man with a blue parrot.
"Welcome to my crew." Jack said, and he walked into the Captains quarters. When he was out of earshot, Mary started to grin, and her friends cheered. "That was awesome Mary!" Yuri smiled, and Collin wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "I didn't know you're father was a captain." He stated. The girl blushed, and she whispered in his ear: "He isn't. Dad's first mate back at home, but I thought I could bluff my way out of it."
Collin started to chuckle. "you did a great job, Mary." Martin said, and he patted the girl on her shoulder. Gibbs coughed, and the boys walked after him, while Ann and Mary followed Cotton to the cabins.
A/N hey everybody, here's another chapter. I don't think I'll be able to upload the next chapter as fast, but I'll try. Everybody knows a fanfiction author doesn't own Pirates of the Caribbean, but I just thought I should repeat it once. If you have something to say, please review, and to everybody who did, thank you very much.
Love, Piuletta
