Jack looked up. He heard something coming from outside and saw Jade. He got up and went outside and tapped her on the shoulder.
"jade"
"yeah captain"
"are you al right?"
"to tell you the truth no, I’ve been in a bad mood for a long, long time."
jack looked at her "well hope ye feel betta soon cause we are docking for Tortuga in just 10 minutes or so"
"Alright Cap'n"
They docked in Tortuga, his face and the faces of his crew lit up when they set foot on its Law-Free ground. As they walked down Tortugas streets they were given many looks and the occasional "That’s the crew of the Black Pearl!" Jack grinned; he had become one of the most famous pirates of all the Caribbean. His dark chocolate eyes scanned the street for his favorite tavern The Faithful Bride
Captain? Asked Mr. Gibbs, the first mate.
Aye? Jack replied.
How long are we to be in Tortuga sir? Gibbs replied, running a hand through what was left of his grey hair.
”As long as it takes” Jack answered calmly.
”Well, what be as long as it takes?” Gibbs asked.
”What I mean my good friend is that we will be remaining in Tortuga until im drunk off me rocker savvy?” Jack said impatiently.
The crew cheered and some went off in other directions, in Tortuga if you were one of Jacks crew you could do your own thing and head back to the ship when the Captain announced so. If you didn’t come back, Jack Sparrow would listen to the code Any Man That falls Behind, Is left behind.
Though, the crew always remembered what Elizabeth Swann had once said, Hang the code and Hang the rules, there more like guidelines anyway
Savvy Captain Gibbs said as they entered The Faithful Bride
Jack stopped as he entered the faithful bride. He saw Leanne and Jade looking around.
"Welcome to Tortuga ladies. The place where you can do anything you want to" he said as he gestured the place.
All 3 of them walked in jack stopped them "before you go in you might want something to drink"
Leanne and jade looked at each other "rum" they said together.
Jack smiled "ok 3 pints of rum comin right up. Why don't you 2 go and sit by the crew"
"Well Cap'n we meaning you, me, and Leanne were thinking that we might be willing to get our swords and pistols after we finish the rum of course". Jade said.
"Well you can meet me at the Blacksmith shop". Jack said as he drunken his rum.
"I'll go with you two". Will said as he smiled at the ladies.
Will escorted them out of the bar and walked down the streets of Tortuga.
"Well ladies what do you thin about the on and only Tortuga?"
Leanne smiled "I love it I would want to live here"
"dido" Jade said
"that's what your father would say. He loves it here. He might want to live here as well but he loves the sea too much"
Back at the faithful bride jack was sitting there with Gibbs "ye know what Mr. Gibbs I like those girls. They are really sweet and they seem to have the pirate in 'em"
"aye sir. They remind I of a shorter and a female version of you."
jack almost chocked on his rum "what? They are nothing like me?"
"face it jack they are. They love rum-"
"every pirate loves rum" jack pointed out
"they can speak like you can-"
"so just because they can speak pirate doesn't mean that they are like me" jack yelled.
"Fine" Gibbs drank his rum.
"Well I think Jade is a female version and so is Leanne". Gibbs said under his breath.
As they were walking people were looking at Jade and Leanne probably because she had Will Turner beside them.
"Well it's seems to me that people have never saw two girls with a man before”. Leanne said looking at Will.
"I think there are jealous of us." Jade said looking straight ahead.
Will didn’t say anything he just smiled at them.
They got to the blacksmith shop. Will unlock the door and went inside.
"Whoa". Leanne and Jade said together.
"I never saw so many swords in me life." Leanne said.
"Me nether" Jade said as she walked in grabbing a pistol that looked liked Jack's.
"Hmmm let me see swords." Will said looking for two pairs of swords.
"I seem to misplace the two I was working on." Will said.
"I'll tell you what I’ll make you two a pair of swords and then you can get them." Will said giving Leanne a pistol.
"Okay" Jade said.
"Alright sounds good to me". Leanne said.
When jack and Gibbs were walking down to the blacksmith shop a girl came up to him. It was scarlet.
"Jack? Is that you?"
jack nodded "the one and only"
she smiled and slapped him right across the face, and then walked away. Jack turned to Gibbs "not sure I deserved that"
"you always deserved that, jack here comes diesel better get ready"
jack turned around a diesel smacked him right across the face. "I might have deserved that"
back at the shop Leanne and jade were walking around staring at all the swords and pistols Will made. "How do you have all this time to make these?" leane asked
"well... When I was living in Port Royale with your mother I used to keep myself busy when there was no one in there."
Leanne went and sat down "tell me more about my mother?"
"well your mother was a great woman. Sometimes I think she was better than all of us put together. She lived in n port Royale with me. And she was the governor’s daughter, which is your grandfather. Anyway when jack came to port Royale he needed my help with commandeering a ship. But his plan didn’t work so he was put in prison and I sprung him free. Then your mother was captured buy pirates and taken to the black pearl. And in the end we freed jack from the hangman’s noose"
Jade heard this whole story so she grabbed a seat next to them. "Why did jack leave?"
Leanne knew this much "well when mom died I went and lived with her sister. she told me that when I was at least 4 or 5 jack wanted to band me with the tattoo and the "P" so when he went on his voyages and he came back and I’ve grown up he could know its me. But my mom said no and they got into the whole argument. Jack got so furious that he pulled out his sword and mom pulled out hers. They wouldn't fight each other so jack jus told her goodbye and left. She knew she couldn’t raise me all by herself so she handed me over to my aunt or her sister and a few hours late, living alone and childless she collapsed and died"
tears fell form her eyes and then jack came in.
"What’s all this then" Jack said as we walked of to Leanne.
"Oh it's nothing". Leanne said wiping the tears out of her eyes.
Jade was helping Will with the swords.
"You’re very good at this". Will said as he banged the sword with his hammer.
"Thanks I had a lot of experience". Jade said banging the sword with the hammer.
"Oi you two what are you doing?" Jack said.
"Making swords". Jade said.
Scarlet opened the door and peeped in.
"I know how to make them." Jade said with a smile.
Leanne got up and went over to Jade.
"Ok since you know how to make them do you know how to use them?"
"obvious. According to my father "what’s the point of being a pirate if: A you can't sword fight, and B don't like rum" Leanne pointed out
jade whispered "don't give yourself away too much"
Leanne whispered back "don't worry I’m not. I jus seeing if he'll crack about me being his daughter that’s all but if we show him that we can sword fight then he'll jus give in maybe"
they turned to jack and Gibbs. Jade stepped forward and announced "we will show you that we can sword fight on one condition"
"name it love?"
"you have to at least take us somewhere where our hearts desire"
"deal!"
"And where do we want to go". Leanne asked Jade.
"We'll think of something". Jade said.
"Who's first?" Jack said as he stepped forward.
"Wait Jack the swords are not ready yet." Will said.
"Oh Bugger'. Jack said as he saw scarlet looking in the hole in the door.
"Scarlet!!!!" Jack said.
