Chapter 11-Fight
Hi guys I'm trying hard to keep my promise. I am still trying to get my ideas for the 2nd film [dead man's chest] before I start writing so I am warning that after this this story finishes, which is in around 6 chapters, there will be a gap for me to sort out the story. Anyway back to this one, I hope you enjoy this. Oh and I don't own any of the POTC, but I do own my wonderful Scarlet
The crew member had Jack by the scruff of the neck and me in a headlock by the time we had got to the brig. I sometime did wish it wasn't in my nature to fight against a capture. The water sloshed around our feet, "Apparently there's a leak," Jack said as the crew person walked away.
"No Jack," I said sarcastically, "Just think how well our negotiations worked!"
"Oi I'm planning," Jack argued back as I sat down on the floor, getting wet but at least I could rest for a moment.
"Haul on the main brace! Make ready the guns! And run out the sweeps," I could hear Barbossa yelling from above us. Jack was looking out the smallest hole ever to see what was going on.
"What's happening?" I asked him.
"They have dropped everything they can. Now they and turning," Jack begun, but stopped when he fell over me and onto the floor, next to me, before moving back into his original position.
"And I'm guessing we are turning as well," I finished, "Well if we don't die 'ere then the Navy are gonna kill us for destroying their ship!"
The word, 'FIRE!' Was all I could hear from inside the brig, then the cannon's firing and the sound of splintering wood as they hit the ships.
Jack ducked out of the way just as the wall of the hull exploded. I looked down to find that they had fired Gibb's flask. This must be getting mad.
"Stop blowing holes in my ship!" Jack yelled.
"Jack," I said tapping him on the shoulder and pointing to where the cell door had just been blasted open by the flask. Jack grabbed the flask out of my hand and opened it trying to get a drink, but finding it empty.
We moved quickly up onto deck, trying to avoid being seen by anyone, "Raise yer colours ya bloomin? Cockroaches! Hands, grapnels, at the ready. Prepare to board!" Barbossa yelled, the mast of the interceptor got shot down by a cannon, falling just clear of Barbossa himself, "Blast all to carcasses, men! Forward clear to the powder magazine. And the rest of you, bring me the medallion!" The pirates began to board the interceptor. Jack got up onto the riggings and grabs a rope that one of the pirates had just failed to cross with. He pulled me up with him, grabbed my waist, thanked the man and swung us over to the interceptor. I stuck my leg out and kicked a man who was attacking Gibbs overboard.
"Jack! Scarlet!" Gibbs exclaimed.
Jack reached into his belt and gave Gibb's back his canteen, "Bloody empty."
Jack ran off in one direction I went in the other. Grabbing the sword of one of Barbossa's crew as he fell overboard.
I turned around and came face to face with another one of them, their seemed to be millions, "Miss you know you can't kill us," he said to me as I attacked him with my sword.
"I know, but you can't kill me either, so I'll just have to chuck you over wouldn't I?" I said, tripping him backwards, over a barrel and into the ocean below, "Bye, bye."
I saw Elizabeth dive over to the grate yelling Will's name, and that damn monkey had the medallion. The pirates grabbed me from behind and although I kicked and screamed it was pointless. We had been captured.
"Gents, our hope is restored!" Barbossa said, and I felt my heart sink.
Thank you for reading, please review.
Until next time,
