Blair Sparrow

The Curse

"I'm just saying crying isn't gonna solve anything." I said. For the past hour, Elizabeth had been sitting on the desk. Her head in her hands as she cried. I've just been staring out a small window, watching the moon reflect over the ocean.

"Just shut up!" She yelled. I just groaned in annoyance. The door opened, Pintel and Raggetti walked in holding a red dress. I looked at them confused.

"Your free of your duties." Pintel said.

"Oh thank goodness." I said in excitement and annoyance.

"Hey." She scoffed. I just rolled my eyes and left his office. When I walked out onto the main deck, the moon light was shining bright. My skeleton form consumed me and I walked to the front of the boat.

"Jack! Jack! Come here." I called out. I watched as the skeleton monkey ran across the ropes. He jumped down onto my shoulder and lightly grabbed onto my ear for support.

You may be wondering why I'm not doing work. Well after they marooned my farther and I didn't leave. Barbossa said that I didn't have to do work, but only if I steal for him. So I took that deal and now I'm one of the best thief's in the Caribbean. So I mean Barbossa got lucky with me.

As I was looking over the mast of the ship . I heard the sound of a scream. I turned my head to see Elizabeth running around in fear. I just started laughing and Jack jumped off my shoulder. All of the crew took turns tormenting her. It was hilarious to watch. She ended up running back into a human Barbossa who was hiding in the shadows. I jumped onto the railing of the ship and ran across it. I grabbed onto a rope and leaned my body weight against it. When ever I did this I felt like such a badass and it gave me so much confidence. Why...I couldn't tell yeah.

Barbossa grabbed Elizabeth and forced her to face all of the crew.
"The moon shows our true forms. We are not among the living so we cannot die. But neither are we dead." He than spun her back around to face him.
"For to long, I've been parched of thirst unable to clench it. To long I've been starving to death and haven't died. I feel nothing, not the wind in my face or the spray of the sea or the warmth of a woman's flesh." He reached his hand out to touch Elizabeth's face. His hand turned into bones and he stepped forward. Showing his skeleton form.

"You best start believing in ghost stories. Mrs Turner! Your in one!" He yelled. He opened a bottle of wine and drank it. The wine spilling out of his skeleton body. Elizabeth screamed in fear and ran back into his office. We all started laughing and Barbossa slammed the double doors. He than looked back to the crew.

"WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT! BACK TO WORK!" He yelled. Everyone started doing their jobs again and I jumped off the railing. I manoeuvred my way through the crew and ended up back up at the front of the ship.

"Dad, Who is my mom?" I asked. As I was looking at the beautiful sea. My dad took the spyglass away from his eyes. He looked down at me with pain and sadness in his dark eyes.

"We don't talk about your mother." He sighed.

"Why not."  I asked.

"We just don't." He whispered.

"Please." I begged

"No." He whispered again.

"Please!" I said louder.

"No!" He said now with a bit of anger.

"Please!"

"No!"

"PLEASE!" I pleaded loudly and with a baby voice.

"NO!" He bellowed. I began to feel tears in my eyes, he has never yelled at me before. He went to grab my arm, but instead I took off running.
