Love at Sea

Disclaimor: I don't own anyone from POTC or anything from it!!! Plase R&R! Thank you!!


I walked about the docs early one morning, taking in the sea air, looking out in to the sea as if to find my freedom. And to my surprise, a large ship w/ black sail was headed toward me. ‘ Maybe this is my ticket out of here,’ I thought to my self. I didn’t want to make it obvious that I wanted to be crewed, being a women some people would just walk right past. I scurried off into the local pub (like I do every time a new ship comes to doc. This is was the pub that every captain came into when getting a new member.).

I sat in a seat next to the window. Luckily I could see the doc from there. The ship came in no time at all. I could see some people running around tying ropes and doing other things. Making out people was still a little hard b/c of my distance form the docs. Wait, I could make out someone, walking down from the wheel. ‘Maybe the captain,’ I thought. As he came down the crew lined up, almost as if they were at command. There they stood for some time until what seamed to be the captain walked off the ship. It was then when I noticed the name on the ship…’The Black Pearl’. The name triggered memories of when I was aboard the “Cutlass”. My fellow ship mates telling stories of undead pirates!

I had wondered off into a daydream of the stories those men would tell, until I looked out of the window to find I could now see the captain. He was tan and wore a 3-sided leathery hat. A red bandanna could scarcely be seen under it. He walked fast as if in a hurry to get some were. His hair was dark and parsley in deadlocks. Beads hug from the front strands of hair and swayed as he walked. That walk…there was something about it, as if he was drunk! He also had a heavy well wore, long coat, leather vest and half open white shirt. His pants were of the typical pirate style. And his boots were somewhat tall w/ a big floppy over hang. I looked once more at his face. He had dark eyes w/ kohl lined around them. His nose was…. prefect just like the rest of him. My legs became weak has he came dangerlessly close to the pub.
I looked over at the doors, waiting for him to come in. The door opened and he strolled in. Some of the men looked up and yelled his name.

‘Hey everyone, look, it’s Jack Sparrow!’ varies people said. Jack walked right past me. I couldn’t breathe …. I felt weak and nervous hoping maybe this one would see that I could be a good pirate again. He walked over to the bar, hoped on a stool and jumped on to the counter.
” Gentlemen, seeing ‘hat the last hurricane nearly blew the fucking riggin’s off me bloody ship, and a very…dear friend of mine as lost his life ta the sea, I’m in need of a new crew member” Jack began, everyone in the pub got silent. “If any of ye are crazy enough ta come aboard the Pearl, jest say so,” the people in the pub continued talking like he hadn’t said anything. “ Come on….what says you?” he asked. This was my chance. I stood up on my chair. .

”Aye,” I said, everyone looked over, not expecting a women, if anyone to answer. Jack spun drunkenly around. The beads slightly hit the side of his face. He saw me and jumped off the bar counter. I got off my chair and stood tall. He walked over and let his eyes wonder my body. He walked around me checking for any flaws. My legs were shaking and I healed my breath. I had never been the nervous around a man before. Could it be possible at I found him attractive?


” What’s yer name?” Jack asked, now looking me in the face. His heavily lined eyes gazed into mine.

”Nona Adler,” I said strongly a he gave up one last look up and down.
” Very well then, welcome aboard …fallow me,” Jack said walking out the door. I grabbed my bag and ran after him.

”So that’s it? I’m in? Just like that?” I asked him, he didn’t answer me. As he walked in front of me I couldn’t help but notice his walk. I liked it, very different. Perhaps he was drunk. What is he woke up the next morning and had know idea who I was?

We walked up to the docs to the marvelous ship. I paused for a moment to just take in all that was happening. The Black Pearl looked even bigger up close. The wood was old and stained black, there were several holes along it’s side, and some of the panels were cracked. But she still took my breath away, being in font of the infamous ship..and not to mention a just as infamous captain was a little overwhelming .

“Ahem!” Jacks voice broke me out of my trance. “Shall we then.” I fallowed Jack up the gang plank and on deck.
