Chapter 29

JJJJJMMMMM

"I cannot believe I'm still here. I should've gone with Heather," Megan said, following Jack with Giselle and Scarlet in both of his arms at a safe distance.

"Granted, it tends to list to port and has on occasion been known to frighten young women, but I guarantee you will not be disappointed." Jack said, continually bragging about the Black Pearl. They stopped at the end of the dock they were walking along. Something was wrong though. Megan hurried past them and saw what was in the grand Ship's place: A small boat with a single black sail.

"Is that it?" Giselle asked

"The Black Pearl?" Scarlett added

"It's not very big." Giselle commented

"Yeah. Must've shrunk in the wash or something." Megan commented

"That," Jack said, pointing at the boat, "love, is a dinghy. My vessel is magnificent, and fierce, and huge-ish, and... Gone. Why is it gone?" He looked to Megan

"How should I know?" She said, shrugging her shoulder and holding her palms up.

"You know everything." Jack stated

"Not now. My knowledge is at an end right about now." Megan said

"Is that it there?" Giselle pointed at a vanishing black figure on the horizon.

"Yes, there it is. Why is it there?" Jack asked, before looking at the two women, "It's much larger up close." Megan looked tok the right of them and spotted a couple familiar faces lying on a large coil of rope, asleep.

"Jack, you promised to give us a ride." Scarlett whined

"I was to get the first ride!" Giselle said

"Jack," Megan whispered. Jack hurried over to her and the other two as a fight began to break out between Scarlett and Giselle. The two stood over the sleeping Janice and Gibbs. While Janice had a small blanket covering her, Gibbs was hugging a burlap teddy bear.

"Aaaw, hey look so cute." Megan said. Jack looked at her before turning the cup he was also holding over to spill the rum on Janice and Gibbs' faces. They woke up sputtering.

"Janice love, Mr. Gibbs, any particular reason why my ship is gone?" Jack asked

"Its too early, aren't we on it?" Janice asked, snuggling into her blanket.

"The ship? We're on the ship." Gibbs said, closing his eyes to go to sleep. Suddenly, the two pirates quickly woke up.

"Babossa!" Janice said, standing up

"Jack, the ship is gone!" Gibbs said, pulling himself up.

"Really?" Jack asked, a smile slapped onto his face.

"Uh oh, it's getting ugly." Megan commented on Giselle and Scarlett's fight. Jack turned on the women.

"Ladies, will you please shut it!" Jack said to them, the smile gone.

"Whoa, tell them." Megan said, amused

"That's my Jacky," Janice nodded

"And you both, too!" Jack pointed at Megan and Janice before stepping back to look at all four. "Listen to me," He looked at Giselle, "Yes, I lied to you." He turned to Scarlett, "No, I don't love you." He turned to Janice. "The most insane creature, ever." He turned to Megan. "Cut off that rat's nest of hair." He looked to Giselle, "Of course it makes you look fat!" To Scarlett. "I've never been to Brussels." To Janice. "I kept you because you remind me of me when I was younger." To Megan. "It was because I didn't want to and that's all." To Giselle. "It is pronounced eg-ree-gious." To Scarlett. "And by the way, no, I've never actually met Pisaro, but I love his pies." He glanced at all four girls who had various degrees of surprise and shock on their faces, "And all of this pales into utter insignificance in light of the fact that my ship is, once again, gone, savvy?" The girls glanced at each other, before one by one slapping Jack. The Captain then spun around and slapped Gibbs. He was surprised at first before he nodded his head in resignation. The two leaned forward as Giselle and Scarlett began to walk away.

"Take what you can." Gibbs said

"Give nothing back." Jack said. The two bumped their fists before Gibbs went after the women.

"So tell me ladies, what do you know of sea turtles?" he said, holding his arms out.

"... Wow." Megan said

"Pickup lines of the 1700's." Janice said

"Will you both be sailing with me then?" Jack asked

"Tortuga's nice, but you are an adventure magnet." Janice said

"You're stuck with us, whether you like it or not," Megan said with a shrug, "No hard feelings though about everything, right?" Megan held out her hand and Jack flinched, moving to block her move.

"I don't want you to slap me again." he said simply.

CCCCCEEEEE

"Are we insane?" Cheyenne asked, leaning on a railing.

"Not entirely." Emily said, waking past. Cheyenne followed her friend.

"We just left Megan and Janice alone with Jack Sparrow while we stole the Pearl." Cheyenne said

"I like Jack, but honestly, and you know I'm right, we both are here because we think Barbossa is a more competent captain." Emily said, " Besides, maybe he could get us home." The two saw Barbossa leaning on a table, holding a peanut to feed to Jack the monkey. The monkey took the peanut and munched on it.

"Ooh, that's a good boy, you're Daddy's boy, yes you are." Barbossa said with a smile.

"Competent... Yeah." Cheyenne said. From behind them, Pintel, Ragetti, who was carving a new eye, Murtogg, Mullroy, and Marty walked up.

"Sir," Pintel said, "some of the men don't feel entirely settled about leaving Captain Jack behind..."

"... Again..." Ragetti whispered, focusing on his carving.

"... Again." Pintel said

"Is that so?" Barbossa asked

"Yeah, I mean we left our friends behind too. Not the sane ones, the crazy ones." Emily said

"It would make us feel a whole lot better concerning our fortunes if we could see that item you mentioned." Pintel said

"On the charts." Marty added. The bunch all made noises of agreement.

"With our own eyes." Pintel said

"To ease our burden of guilt, so to speak." Ragetti added in.

"Too make sure it was worth it leaving them all behind, basically." Cheyenne said.

"Aye." Barbossa said, grabbing the rolled up charts, "Feast your eyes on this, mateys. There's more than one way to live forever. Gents, ladies, I give you the Fountain of Youth!" He quickly unfurled the charts on the table.

"Uh, something's missing here." Emily commented. Barbossa held the charts up. A great big hole was cut out of it. The charts were stolen away.

"Sparrow!" Barbossa hissed

JJJJJMMMMM

Even if it was a simple dinghy, it still needed a flag. A black flag with a white skull that had a bandana and beads tied onto its head with a red sparrow across from it was raised. Janice saluted to it. Then she put her hand over her heart.

"I pledge of allegiance, to the jolly roger, of the Black Pearl Dinghy, and that the code, for which it stands, one nation on the sea, for pirates to pillage and plunder forever." she said

"No rum for you." Megan said, rowing a bit. Jack sang mostly to himself.

"... A pirate's life for me." He sang, "Girls, I need to show you this." The girls huddled around him. He pulled a small item from his coat and unfurled it. They had the stolen charts. Jack moved the parts of it until it matched up to show a picture of Florida with an X on it. Next to that was a picture of two cups with the words 'Agua de Vida written over them on a ribbon.

"Water of life?" Janice translated

"The rumor was for another sequel." Megan confessed, "We're going to look for the fountain of youth.

"So we're going to Florida? We're going home?" Janice asked

"Yeah, I guess we are." Megan nodded

"Hold on a moment." Jack said. He pulled out his compass. The girls moved behind him to watch the arrow spin before sit stop, landing to point at Jack. He reached under his seat and picked up a bottle of rum and uncorked it. The arrow spun around before pointing in the direction they were sailing. The dinghy was full of smiles at that moment.

"Drink up, me hearties, yo ho." The three sang, sailing off into the sunset.
