READ THE MEMO!!! Panting slightly from your struggle, you glare hatefully at the current object of your powerful disdain before once again forcing yourself back into battle. After about five minutes however, you give up and angrilly wad up your once favorite pair of trousers and throw them at the door before lying down on the bed. You then lift up your head and frown at your distended belly. *Four bloody months and I look like a bloody ship.* you snap at no one in particular. Over the past few weeks, about a day or two after the Pearl had successfully escaped the two battling ships on your wedding day, you've been growing slowly but steadily crankier. For this reason virtually the entire crew, except Annamarie, has chosen to just stay out of your way. Jack has been as supportive as possible, but a pregnant woman with severe mood swings altering an already short temper who's deadly with a gun or throwing knife tends to be a tad bit frightnening to most men, even the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. You sigh in defeat and grudgingly grab one of your few dresses, manage to tug it on, then step outside. *Ahoy, Caitlyn!* Jack waves at you from his spot at the helm. You smile tiredly as you go over to him, allowing yourself to be pulled into a hug. *Feeling any better love?* he asks concernedly after giving you a peck on the cheek. *Aye, but I'd feel better if me bloody clothes would cooperate.* you reply, leaning your head on Jack's shoulder. *I hate wearing dresses.* you add hatefully, glaring down at your current outfit. *But you look so lovely in them!* Jack says, causing you to tilt your head up and give him one of your famous if-looks-could-kill-you'd-be-a-smoldering-pile-of-ash death glares. *Er, what I mean is, we'll be in Tortuga in about half a day or so to stock up on supplies.* he changes quickly. You smile and give him a quick but loving kiss on his lips before reluctantly pulling away to go lie back down. Random Question: Do you like to play video games?
Yes.
No.
What does that have to do with anything? (me: Absolutley nothing. Random Question.)
You're so tired that you end up dozing off. You wake up to the sound of someone knocking on your cabin door. *Come in.* you say, and Jack timidly opens the door. *We've just pulled in to Tortuga if you're feeling up to it.* he tells you. *I thought you said it'd be half a day before we got there?* you ask, rubbing your eyes. *I did, you've been asleep the whole time, darling.* Jack informs you, striding across the room to the side of your bed. *I've been asleep half the day?!* you exclaim. *I haven't slept that long since that time I,* you pause here for a moment, then pout. *Damn, I can't remember when it was, I was drunk.* *I know the feeling.* Jack nods sympathetically as he helps you get up and dressed. After coming out, you notice that it's now night time, proving that you did indeed sleep all day. As you walk down onto the streets of the pirate city, Jack has his arm draped over your shoulders in an protective fashion that would normally have you threatening to inflict something horrible and disgusting on him, but you've been to Tortuga before, and with the lethargic feeling you've been experiancing the past few days, you know that there's no way you'd be able to properly defend yourself. So you allow it, for the moment at least. But you make a mental note to slap him when you're feeling more up to it. Random Question: Has anyone played Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories?
Yes to both.
No to both.
Yes to at least one.
Somehow you manage to find a fairly decent looking shop that sells clothes. Much to your dismay, however, they don't sell any trousers big enough to accomodate your new pregnant form, which means until the baby's born you're stuck wearing maternity dresses.(me: Did they have maternity dresses back then? I think they did, but I'm not sure.) *Waste of money, this is. The minute the babe's born, these get thrown overboard.* you tell Jack after buying a few of the horrid, much hated(me: By Caitlyn.) garments. Jack chuckles at your over-dramatization, earning himself a hard smack in the arm. As the two of you are walking back to the Black Pearl, a tingling sensation shoots through your body as the hair on the back of your neck suddenly stands on end, as if someone is watching you. Acting on instinct you quickly whip out your pistols and whirl around, trying to find the source. *What is it?* Jack asks, startled and concerned. *It feels like we're being watched.* you tell him, frustrated because you can't see who or what it is. *We're in Tortuga, love, of course we're being watched.* Jack informs you. *I'm aware of that, Jack, I've been here before and I'm telling you it's different.* you say to him, grudgingly putting away your pistols. *Are you questioning my pirate instincts?* *No no no no no no, of course not!* Jack puts his hands up in self-defence. *I would never do that! But Caitlyn, you have to admit that you have been a bit on edge for the past few months, not that it's your fault of course! I mean in your condition it's to be expe-* *Condition?! So just because I'm pregnant that means I'm just paranoid?!* you yell, not caring about the crowd you're drawing as you storm off with Jack trying desperately to follow. *Now wait a minute, I didn't say that! Caitlyn!* Uh oh, now you're stupid pregnancy mood swings have caused you and your beloved Jack to get into a little fight in Tortuga! And because I'm the quiz-maker, you can't do anything about it except answer this RANDOM QUESTION: Which of the following is the scariest?
Vampire.
Werewolf.
Re-animated corpse(Frankenstein's Monster).
After getting back to the ship, your mood changes once AGAIN and you decide to forgive Jack. (me: Like I'd really make you two keep fighting!^rolls eyes^) Anyway, once he's absolutly positive that you're not mad at him anymore, Jack goes into town for what he refers to as a 'quick drink', but you know that you're probably not going to see him until one of the crew drags his passed out form back to the ship. You lie down on the bed and you're just about to take a quick nap when suddenly you hear a loud crash from just outside your cabin door. You grab your pistols and two of your throwing knives before carefully opening the door. You gasp at the sight you find yourself confronted by... Random Question: Pick a number between one and ten. Man, I'm really getting desperate to come up with these.

The entire crew of the Black Pearl is fighting against an invading crew! But there's something strange about the attackers. Besides the fact that they're all dressed in old fashioned dress clothes,(me: Old fashioned for POTC time-frame, which I forgot -_-') the way they move just doesn't seem natural: too fast and fluid. Add that their skin is as pale as a full moon, and that their eyes are so bright they're almost glowing, and you realize that something is not right. Without even trying you shoot at one of the invaders and hit him right between the eyes. He, or rather it because there's absoulutley no way that it can be human, turns to look at you. You gasp and stare in horror as the bullet is forced out of the creatures head, falling to the deck with a -clink-. It walks over to you as the bullet hole heals right before your eyes.(me: If you've seen X-Men:2, it's kind of like what happens with Wolverine) Now an intelligent person, or even one with half a brain would scream, slam the door shut and begin baracading it. But it's a well know fact among pirates that Flints never run from an enemy except to tease law enforcement. And we all know what that means, don't we? That's right, ACTION SCENE!!! ^^GO AWAY IF YOU DON'T LIKE GOREY ACTION!!!^^ You put away your pistols, grab your daggers and give them a flourished twirl before thundering forward. You flip foreward and kick the creature in the head before stabbing it in the stomach with your left hand. When it doubles over you quickly go behind it and using your right hand you slit it's throat. But instead of the gush of bright red you were expecting, a black sludge oozes from the wound, which is actually sizzling and blistering. You quickly back away as the creature lets out a blood curdling shreik and clutches at it's smoldering throat. Amazed, you glance at you dagger and see that the black sludge on it is boiling. Not wanting any damage to come to one of your favorite weapons you quickly wipe it off, then punch the face of the thing that was trying to sneak up on you. As it staggers backwards a few steps you stab it in the chest. Just like with the other one, the creature shreiks as the wound smoulders. Again, you wipe your blade of the foul bubbling substance. *Caitlyn! What the bloody hell do you think you're doing?!* Mr. Gibbs yells at you as he hacks away at his attacker, but with little if any effect. *What does it look like I'm doing?!* you yell back, kicking another creature in the head and causing to fall back onto three others. *You're in no condition to be fighting, go back to your cabin! Jack'll have my head if any thing happens to you!* Gibbs says as he finally chops the head off the creature. *Well then it's a good thing nothing's going to happen to me.* you tell him as you stand by his side. *Now if I may change the subject, what the devil are these things?!* you ask, whipping your pistol back out to shoot again, this time the bullet actually flies all the way through one head and lodges it self in the chest of another, but still has no effect other than making them angrier. *My best guess is demons. I told Jack we should have had the ship blessed! What I wouldn't give for my talismans right now.* he grumbles. Suddenly, without warning the creatures all disapear in their own puff of grey smoke. The air is thick with silence and apprehension as you and the crew wait, prepared for anything. You don't have to wait long, because only a few minutes later the silence is broken by the sound of drawn out clapping coming from the crow's nest. You all look up and suddenly you see... And that's it! Sorry this took so long to get out, I promise, the next one will not be nearly so long. Bye!
WHAT?!?!?! FIRST YOU TAKE FOREVER TO UPDATE AND NOW YOU'RE JUST GOING TO LEAVE IT ON A CLIFFHANGER?!(me: Well how else can I make sure people are reading these? Very few people are still messaging me which means their old messages get deleted after 2 months, so now I have to go hunt the people on the update list down so I can tell them the new quiz is up.)
I'm not going to get kidnapped AGAIN, am I? (me: Nah, I'm getting tired of doing that too.)
Why are these quizzes getting spaced so far apart?! (me: Hey, I'm working on that! I do have a life you know, and it's not my fault I get writers block! Few people realise just how hard I stress over writing these quizzes, trying to make them both interesting and original!)
What were those things attacking the ship? Why and how did they just suddenly appear and dissappear? Who's clapping? What do you see? And where's Jack? And most importantly, how'd you get so huge if you're only about four months along? Why am I asking all these questions? Meh. Please rate high while I work on Part 22! Come on, you know you want to.
Drunken Sailor (Jack) Part 21
^is on knees apologising profusely^ I'm so sorry people! I know, I know, this is very very very late. As always, blame the Dudes! They kept bugging me and bugging me to start a Louis quiz, then they didn't do anything to help with it, so I once again had to give up on the idea for the moment. And it certainly doesn't help that a lot of things are going on right now, and I'm more than just a little stressed. Anyway, Fishy's chasing the Dudes away, and Mr. L is holding my lighter hostage, so let's get goDid you like this story? Make one of your own!
