Heart of Glass

A Pirate's Daughter's Adventure

Chapter 15

We began climbing up the side of the Black Pearl, as quiet as could be, until finally were upon the deck itself.

I cautiously looked around, as I saw Sirius's eyes flash about the ship, as if he was trying to see if there were any avaibale weapons.

But suddenly a annoying, yet famailr, screech from the monkey, Jack, got all of ours attention.

But we just stood there and starred at him, not frieghtened by his sounds, making him twitch his head at us curiously.

Yet, Sirius smacked the monkey, sending it flying over the edge of the ship.

Elizabeth looked over the edge of the ship curiously, as we heard a delayed splash, but suddenly she gasped and took of running, with Sirius and following behind her.

The three of us went running down the stairs, where we heard growls from pirates.

Elizabeth and I helplessly looked around to try to figure out where we should hide, but I felt Sirius grab ahold of my wiast and pull me back into him, hiding in the shadows, as Elizabeth disappered into her own shadow.

Soon the two pirates went running past us and into the moonlight revealing their horrific selvs.

But as soon as they were gone, the three of us went running back down the stairs again.

"Shh!" I heard echo in the brig, while Sirius led the way, running down the stairs, with my and Elizabeth following behind.

Instantly we spotted the huddled pirates, whom were stored in a cell, each despterly looking at us.

"Miss Elizabeth! Beaux! Sirius!" Gibbs called out to us.

Instantly Sirius went off looking for the keys, while I ran up to the familiar crew, and hugged Gibbs through the cell wall.

"Is anybody hurt?" I questioned, looking over the boys and Annamaria.

They each shook their heads, while Elizabeth began looking through the weapons that were hanging upon the walls.

But in the distance we heard the ship bell toll. The pirates' attack had been now told to Norrington and his crew whom were at the shore.

Soon after cannon fire erupted, while Sirius ran over to me with the key, and quickly unlocked the cell.

"Quickly," Sirius began commanding," Get your guns! There are still two pirate guards upon this ship."

I looked up at Sirius in shock. He was actually going to risk his life for these pirates. But I wasn't mad…surprinsgly. Rather I was happy and proud that he was going to do this.

And without a second thought, as the pirates rushed out of their cells to gather their things, I lunched myself into Sirius's arms and gave him a passionate kiss, trying to express my love for him.

I wrapped my arms around Sirius as tight as I could trying to enjoy this moment for as long as I could.

But the crew seemed to ignore us, while I opened my eyes and began to withdraw from the kiss.

Sirius smiled down at me, before I felt something being tucked into the pocket of the jacket I was wearing.

"I'm not going to loose you again," Sirius whispered, as I glanced down and saw a pistol hanging out of the pocket. "I know you know how to use one of these. This will come in handy. Trust me."

I nodded, while Elizabeth lead the crew back up the stairs, where the gaurds still were.

Sirius quickly wrapped his arm around my small waist, and pulled me over to a gun rack, where he took several guns for his own use, as well as a sword and a saber.

He wrapped the belt that belonged to the saber around my waist, before taking me up the stairs, where we saw the pirates fall over the edge of the ship and into the water, thanks to a boat.

After a small cheer was let loose from the crowd, Elixabeth, alone, ran up to the boat," All of you with me. Will is in that cave and we must save him. Ready! And heave!"

But the bopat hardly moved an inch.

Elizabeth looked behind her in dismay, as she saw all of the pirates, along with Sirius and I standing still looking at her.

"Please, I need your help!" Elizabeth begged. "Come on!"

But the parrot squaked," Any port in a storm."

"Cotton's right," Gibbs agreed," we've got the Pearl."

I saw the familiar desperation in Elizabeth's eyes, when I thought I had lost Sirius during the battle between the Dauntless and the Black Pearl.

I quietly debated as I looked up at Sirius, who looked like he was debating to leave with Elizabeth as well.

"What about Jack? Are you gonna leave him?"

"Jack owes us a ship." Someone spoke, whiel Gibbs added," And there's the code to consider."

"The code?" Elizabeth gawked," You're pirates. Hang the code, and the rules! They're more like guidelines anyway."

But still no one spoke or said anything in her defense.

So I took a step forward causing some attention, I walked up along Elizabeth's side, looking back at Sirius.

Sirius sighed and walked forward," Governor Swann owes Beaux and I a stay in Port Royal."

"Suite yourself, mate," Gibbs, sighed," We'll help you with the boat, but we will not go along with you. You know the code the best out of all of us."

Sirius nodded, while everyone silent pictehd in to move the boat into the water, and laoded Elizabeth, Sirius, and myself upon it.

Once again Sirius began rowing the boat, this times towards the cave, making my stomach turn anxiously.

But I silently prayed that Sirius and I would come out of the cave alive, or else we both shall not leave that cave and make it our final resting place.
