Chapter 3

So morning struck, the plan was set, Henry was atop of the bell tower, and things were as smooth as they were going to be..y'know, as far as Jack in a guillotine and Henry wanted to save this girl, I didn't know who she was, she was being hanged for being a witch, which, isnt that uncommon, but Henry wanted to save her, they struck a deal, or he just plain fancies her...I'm not sure, but this girl does look oddly familiar......
So Jack and this girl were bickering back and forth about who should die first, and then finally the Governer said to kill them both, that's when Henry swung down, and I thought maybe he'd land on Jack post and knock out the execusioner, or the girls, and do that but no, he swung around like an unexperienced tallywacker.... I smacked my forhead
"Oh to be young and dumb"I said as Henry began to fight the guards in the crowd. I notice that Henry got cuaght by two guards and they were beating on him
"Oh blood hell no!"I said and ran over and tackled one of them, I, being the flixible girl I am (and my jacket is already off)swung my legs around their neck and did a back flip, slamming him to the ground and knocking him out.
"Jessica!You came to save me?!"Jack asked.
"That's Jessica Sparrow?! Kill her!"The Governer yelled
"Why do I put up with you?!"I yelled at Jack
Then like 10 guards came and tackled me, holding me and Henry down
"Did you honestly think a woman like yourself and a boy could defeat us?"The Commadore said to us. I smirked
"Well dear Commadore, just like the previous Commadore before you, you are a fool because this was just a diversion"I said smirking
"What?"He said taken back
"FIRE!"Henry and I yelled and everyone looked, there stood Mr. Gibbs, Scrum, Marty and the rest of our crew fired a cannon and just as the executioner let the guillotinego, the cannon shot under the deck Jack was on, causing an uproar in the crowd, and everywhere, but poor Jack, the guillotine was spinning and spinning, the blade getting close to Jack and just as I thought it would cut his head off, it swiped back to the top
"Only Jack!"I said rolling my eyes as I began shooting at the guards, they started running off. Cowards.
Finally the guillotine stopped spinning and Jack was upside down.
"Im coming!"I said and pulled out my sword. Henry was going after the girl to save her, meanwhile, Mr. Gibbs shot another cannon, completely destroying Jack's wooden trap
"Hey watch it!"I yelled
"Sorry Jess!"Mr. Gibbs said trying to hide a smirk. I pulled Jack up and slapped him across the face
"What was that for?"Jack said. I just glared at him angrily, completely forgetting the situation around us. He saw my eyes glassy
"I deserved that"He said admitedly and then hugged me. I sighed
"Lets get out of here"I said and he nodded. I noticed that Scrum accidentally knocked the handle for the girl to be hanged she screamed, but luckily, Henry caught her underneath. I sighed seeing the Commadore walk up to Henry and the girl
"Well, if I kill the coward, the witch hangs, two for the price of one shot wouldn't you say"He said smirking
"Um how about no"I said and then punched him as hard as I could in the face and he was out like a light
"When did you learn to hit so hard?"Jack asked seeing the blood gushing from his hand
"Psh, all the things we've been through, a girls gotta learn to punch"I said as I took my sword and cut the rope on her neck. She sighed as Henry let her down.
"Gentlmen...these two will lead us to the Trident"Jack said smirking...
next thing ya know, Jack was ordering the crew to tie them up
"Jack what the hell!"I said
"We promised Elizabeth Henry were to be kept safe, what better way then tying him up with his new female...friend...witch...yeah"Jack said. I shook my head
"Senile man"I said and walked around the ship
"Is this thing even going to sail?It's in horrid shape"I said looking around
"Love, quit worrying so much, it'll be fine"He said. I sighed
"Captain, are we sure they can lead us to the Trident?"Mr.Gibbs said
"Master Gibbs there's nothing to be worried about"Jack said as he kicked down the ladder. I sighed shaking my head.
"What could possibly go wrong?"Jack said smirking
"I could think of so many things"I said glaring
"Well love, that's because you've become what we call a debby downer"Jack said
"Oh really? I've become a debby downer? Because up until your knowledge of the Trident, you haven't wanted to step foot onto the sea!You'd rather sit here, safe and cozy, and get drunk! When was the last time you saw Isabelle by the way!?"I asked. He was starting to piss me off..like he always did..
"Alright alright, we can talk about this in private...no need to be at eachother's throats"Jack said. I rolled my eyes and walked to the back of the ship.
~Still, he doesn't get it~ I thought sadly..I looked down at the locket around my neck, feeling it with my fingers...it made my heart crack.
~He stopped trying with us...after Isabelle turned 2 he started seeing her less and less, because he would always be out late with the boys drinking and going to saloons with pretty woman there... I knew he flirted with the woman there...but I knew he'd never cheat..he loved me....but drinking every single night...and ontop of me actually working at Elizabeth's shop, and taking care of the baby.. he just.. gave up on being a father to her...why don't you get that....we could of been a family if we had just gone to the sea sooner...like you said we would..Isabelle...~ I thought to my self sadly...
Then the ship shot forward into the sea, it was a bumpy ride into the ocean but we were finally back in it. I sighed happily
"Back where we should be"I said smiling off into the ocean..well I was wrong...I thought the ship would go into the ocean...but there was a rope around the bottom of the ship and we all went flying. I yelled and fell along with everyone else, aside from Henry and the girl tied to the post. We all got back up
"This is just not efficient at all"I said shaking my head
"Somethings gone wrong"Jack said, but literally right after he said that, the rope broke and plunged us into the ocean
"She floats!" Marty yelled and they all cheered
"This is gonna be a long ride"I said sitting on the railing of the ship.

So a couple hours later, we were in the middle of the ocean, not a thing in sight. I found out the girls name was Carina. Now, Carina and Henry were bickering like an old married couple about sharing what theyve found out about the Trident when Jack walked up with the book that Carina was found with
"There is no map on this map"Jack said holding it out
"Give me my diary"Carina said
Jack crossed his arms
"Give me the map no man can read"Jack said smugly
I rolled my eyes and walked down to the middle where they all were
"If you could read it then it wouldn't be called the map that no man could read" Carina said right back, making me smirk. I liked her attitude.
"I beg you, please, don't argue with her" Henry said. Jack shook his head
"Most of the men on this ship cant read which makes all maps...maps that...no man can read"Jack said confusing himself.
"Well if you can't read it then you have no use for it..or me" She said smirking. Uh oh....
"Let me try this again...show me the map"Jack said a little impatiently
"I cant"Carina said simply
"It doesnt yet exsist" Carina said
"She's a witch!"Marty said. I rolled my eyes
"Im an astronomer" She said
"Ahhh she breeds donkies" Scrum said. I groaned
"Oh bloody hell you morons! She can read the stars and use them to guide her!" I said walking up now.
"How did you know what that was?"Jack asked
"Because any royal navy guard does. Or at least that's how my father found his way home. He used the stars as a,connect the dots if you will"I said crossing my arms
"How do you breed donkies?"One of the other crew members asked. Carina and I groaned shaking our heads
"Listen closely..give me the map..or I will kill.....him"Jack pointed at Henry.
"What?! NO you will not!Elizabeth will kill us!"I said shoving Jack a bit.
"Go on then. You're bluffing"Carina said smirking.
"And you're blushing" Jack said smirking
"No Carina he's just stupid enough to do it"I said crossing my arms and glaring daggers at Jack.
"Exactly, I'm stupid enough to do it" He said smirking then turned and gave me a look. I just shrugged rolling my eyes.
"Throw him over"Jack said and the crew untied the rope to get to Henry.
"Jack no!We can't do this!"I said grabbing Jack's arm. He moved closer to my face and starred in to my eyes. I blushed, we hadn't been this close in a long time..I gulped
"Sorry love, but you made it clear you and I are nothing any more..so why does your opinion matter now?"He said quietly so only I could hear but he said it so cold and then shrugged me off of him.
My jaw dropped a little...he was being serious... I glared then backed up.
"If you kill him Jack....I will kill you my self.....that..is a promise"I said but Jack looked at Mr. Gibbs and nodded his head at me. Mr. Gibbs and a couple other men held me down
"You bastards! Gibbs how could you?! You forget I made sure you all got paid!"I said angrily.
"Sorry Jess...it's nothing personal"Mr. Gibbs said. I growled seeing as I couldn't move I gave up.
"Young Henry will be thrown over, and dragged under the ship" Jack said. I gasped
"Alright, what are you waiting for"Carina said smirking. I turned my head to her angrily.
"What are you doing?!" I yelled at Carina
"Relax Jessica, he's not going to do it"She said smugly. They then began to stuff his mouth with some cloth and threw him over. I gasped and screamed for henry but it was too late. The men let me go and I instantly ran to Jack and punched him in the jaw. He fell back into the flag post and then held his cheek with a shocked expression
"That hurt!"He said sounding hurt.
"Jack!How could you?!"I said angrily as tears formed in my eyes. Carina held her stomach and turned over to the edge of the boat in shock that they threw him over.
"If he's lucky, he'll drown before the barnicles tear him to shreds"Mr. Gibbs said smirking. I pulled my sword out and held it to Jack's throat, tears coming down. Jack gulped
"J-Jessica...wait. Waiiit.. I can explain this-" I pushed a little more to Jack's throat and he stopped talking
"He was our nephew Jack!Will asked us to watch over him! Elizabeth told us to protect him!How could you?!"I said in rage. Jack was shocked, I had never pulled my blade to him like this.
"We need that map Jessica-"
"Is treasure all that matters to you?!OR oh excuse me your bloody rum! Henry needed that trident to free Will! I NEEDED IT! I promised Elizabeth that I'd bring him home!You didn't have to throw him over to make her talk! If you knew what the hell she knew you'd be able to read the map. You and the rest of these men are stupid! You're all idiots! She's the only one who can read the map! But of course you think she's lying!You're selfish and you're a coward Jack. You are NOT the man I fell in love with! Not even close! I'm done with you..." I yelled sheating my sword and stomped off into the captains quarters, locking myself in. I just cried.....and fell asleep on the floor.
(3rd person pov)
The entire crew stood awkwardly
"Well..trouble in paradise Captain?"Mr. Gibbs said. Jack glared at Mr. Gibbs
"Stow it Gibbs...we have a lot to work on..alright well bring Henry back up from the escape boats" Jack said dusting himself off. Carina rolled her eyes feeling fooled for telling them and feeling sad for Jessica...she didn't know her or Jack very well but from she could tell...Jack had a lot to make up for...
