I forgot to say I don't own anything that's pirates of theCaribbean except for jasmine pearl enjoy the second chapter
"Shoot them," someone says. I glare at the direction it comes from - we just saved a life!
"Father, Commodore, do you really intend to kill my rescuers?"
I smile a little. At least she has some manners.
"Fine. Lower your weapons, men. I believe thanks are in order," he says, holding out his hand for us to shake.
Jack goes first and the commodore grips his hand tightly, then pushes his sleeve showing Jack's 'P' brand from the EITC.
"Had a brush with the East India Trading Company, did we pirate? This must be your whore. Guns on them, men. Gillette, fetch some irons," he says, then pulls Jack's sleeve up a little more, showing Jack's mark and ignoring my furious glare. "Jack Sparrow, is it?"
"Captain, if you please." I chuckle and the Commodore turns to glare at me.
"You find this funny," the Commodore snarls at me.
"Extremely," I comment .
He grabs my arm, expecting to find the W for whore that the unlucky whores are marked with, then gasps - as does everyone else when they see the mark I bare: an oyster with a black pearl in the middle of it, then the P underneath. My mother practised witchcraft and was burned at stake. Once people found out I was the devil's spawn, with full pirate blood, a witch for a mother and a well known pirate for a father, my family was heard of and one many people were scared of.
"Oh, so you all know my story. Don't worry, I don't hold the secret of magic. It failed to pass itself on," I say.
"Pearl," the governor says, shocked. He had obviously heard stories.
"Aye. Captain Jasmine Pearl," I state proudly.
"Well, Captains, I don't see your ship," Norrington says, getting himself back together.
"We're in the market, as it were," Jack said.
"He said they had come to commandeer one," the dumb soldier says (only now he's smart).
"Told you they were telling the truth," the other comments.
"These are theirs, sir."
He looks at the pistol with no additional shots or powder. We shrug – can't help being marooned with one shot each. He then picks up the compass. It points to Elizabeth. He looks confused, and then says, "A compass that doesn't point north!"
He pulls out the swords from their sheaths and I half expected them to be made from wood.
"You two have got to be the worst pirates I have ever heard of.
"Ah, but you have heard of us," Jack says, while I snort with laughter.
Commodore grabs me and Jack by the upper arm. I flinch slightly as this takes me back to the rape; it's one of my only weak spots. I notice I'm getting strange looks.
"Commodore, I really must protest. Pirates or not, these people saved my life," the girl, Elizabeth, protests. I look up from the irons in surprise.
"Even so, one good deed does not make up for a life time of wrongness."
"Though it seems enough to condemn it," Jack and I mutter.
"Indeed."
"Finally," I say and wrap the irons chains around Elizabeth's neck.
"No, don't shoot!" I hear her father cry out.
"I knew you'd warm up to us," jack says evilly.
I shudder a little. He notices and shares a small sly smile to himself, presumably storing the information for later activities once we escape.
"Commodore, our effects, if you please. Oh, and out hats" I snap.
"Commodore," I state.
Jack is near me next to Elizabeth, who takes our effects. Jack grabs both pistols and holds them to her head before she even gets a chance to touch them.
"Elizabeth, is it?" I ask.
"It's Miss Swann," she replies with anger.
"Miss Swann, if you'd be so kind," I say, spinning her around.
She looks down at the effects and sighs, then starts putting my effects on my body. When she gets to my sword and gun holster, she has to hug me for it she, then pulls out and belts it up. Jack and I switch places after my hat is put on my head. While she ties Jack's holster, he smirks at the commodore whilst saying, "Easy on the goods, darling."
I roll my eyes. He's enjoying this, I can tell.
"You're despicable," she says.
"Sticks and stones, love. We save your life, you save ours.
We're square."
I give jack a pistol and he spins Elizabeth around and walks backwards. I stand behind him.
"Gentlemen, milady, this is the day you almost caught Captains Jack Sparrow and Jasmine Pearl," he says, before shoving her forward.
He grabs me around the waist, and a rope, before kicking a gear, sending us flying up a rope which was spinning us round and round a beam of wood. We land whilst getting shot at. Jack and I quickly hook our chains up to more rope and swing down, landing on our feet and running into the town without getting shot, thankfully.
Soldiers quickly enter town and we hide behind a statue. Once they pass, Jack takes the statue's sword and I rush into the nearest shop, dragging him with me. I pick a good shop to run into: the blacksmith's.
