"Hallo, my name's Elizibeth, I suppose you're Rebecca?" The blonde pirate asked. Rebecca was stunned. Not only was this pirate a girl, a complete violation of the pirate' code, she also used proper grammer, like she was from somewhere high in government.
"Uhh, yeah, I'm Rebecca. How did ya know?" Rebecca asked.
"Jack was telling me about you, a little, at least what he knows." Elizibeth answered.
"What are you doing on here? It doesn't look like your kidnapped." Rebecca asked.
"I'm a pirate, same as evry one else on this ship." She replied simply.
"Uh, Elizibeth, luv, would you mind goin' and checkin' on Will, I haven't seen him since we set off." Jack asked. Elizebeth nodded and walked down below deck.
"Are you two married? That would just make you the oddest band of pirates I ave ever heard of." Rebecca asked.
"No, I haven't been married since my wife, and daughter, died. That's Will's wife." Jack said. "So, now, you've been kidnapped by pirates, fed disgusting food, seen a living female pirate, and you have no weapons or belongings to be spoken of." Jack clicked his toung. "What terrible luck."
"Well, at least the captain is somewhat entertaining, I couldn't care less about the female pirate, I didn't eat the food, and I do have a few things of mine that I wear, such as this necklace, which your first mate told me is the reason I'm here. I don't usually like being the odd one out, so would you tell me why this is soo important? I will give you the necklace, if that's what you want." Rebecca said.
"No." Jack said, not looking at her.
"No what?" Rebecca asked.
"I don't want that necklace. I want to know how you got it." Jack said.
"That's it? Why didn't you just ask me that at the tavern? It would have been all said and done then and there, but instead you keep me captive on some disqusting priate's ship."
"Disgusting?" Jack asked, offended. He changed the sufbject back to the necklace. "How did you get the necklace, Rebecca?" Jack asked. Rebecca sighed.
"If I told you, it would get very into my life, and I don't want to tell my history to some strange pirate." She did her "told ya so" look again. Jack sighed.
"Gibbs! I need you to come and take over for a moment, I need to go talk to Miss Smith." Jack yelled.
"Yes, sir."Gibbs rushed over. Jack led Rebecca below deck, and into a room, when he locked the door behind them.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"Now, you are going to tell me where the necklace came from. There aren't any strange pirates around anymore." Jack smirked.
"UGGHH! How does your crew put up with you?!?!" Rebecca exclaimed.
"They know I carry a pistol." He replied. "Now, about the necklace."
Rebecca sighed."Fine, if you let me off at the next port, and you promise to leave me alone. Promise?" She asked.
"I promise to leave you alone." Jack repeated as he rolled his eyes.
"Ok, when I was three, my father disapeared. I don't know why, I remember he had tucked me in, like always, and mum and dad didn't fight, but when I woke up in the morning, he was gone. This necklace was on my pillow by my head with a note on it." Rebecca explained.
"What did the note say?" Jack asked.
"Uhh, wait, I still have it." Rebecca reached into her pocket on her vest and pulled out a crumpled, worn, and torn peice of yellowed paper.
"It was only scrap paper..." Jack almost wispered.
"What did you say?" Rebecca asked as she unfolded it.
"Nothing. What does it say?" He asked, much louder this time.
Rebecca read the note out loud. "It says:
Dearest Rebecca,
I cannot be here anymore with you,
I can't tell you why,
This necklace is how I will know who you are
If I ever manage to see you again.
Dad.
Jack and Rebecca stood silently for a moment, Jack staring at the note, and Rebecca staring at Jack.
"Jack, are you ok? You don't look good." Rebecca asked. She didn't seem concerned, just wanted to break the silence.
"Ya, I'm fine." He turned to leave.
"Remember, the very next port, I'm off." Rebecca said, following him. He pushed her back.
"You, stay in here, and you aren't going on any port." He said. Rebecca was stunned.
"You promised!" She shouted.
"No, I belive I promised to leave the necklace subject alone, I only said I would drop you off, and we all know that what pirates "say" is untrustworthy." With that, he closed the door, leaving Rebecca alone in the small cabin.
Ha. I love cliffhangers. Unless it is on a strory that I don't know what will happen next. Then, they aren't good. I REALLY LOVE REVIEWS!!!!!!!!!! So, If you are just reading, pop in, say something, and whala! I have another wonderful Review. Thanks to: mypirateJack and Mrs. St. John Allerdyce for telling me to keep Elizibeth, Elizibeth. If I get somone's name wrong, please tell me, but as I have said before, I will not keep to much of the original timeline, we all know Jack was probably the Captain of the Black Pearl when Rebecca's mother died, which is when I said that Barbossa was the captain. Sorry if this bugs you.
Thanks to my most recent reviewers...

OH!!! Something to review answers too...
What do you guys think about my next chapter a summary of the previous chapters, only the way Jack sees it? I was thinking about it, but I don't know how "Jack-ish" it would be, his mind is very difficult to dupicate, especially with all the rum and insanity in the way. :-) As always, Review!!!
