Like I said before, while there's still going to be funny moments, this will take on a slightly more serious tone. Hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: Pirates of the Caribbean doesn't belong to me. This particular plot and the OC's, however, do.

“Hey, lass…”

Gina glanced up at Jack, looking slightly bored. He looked slightly uncomfortable. What was his problem?

“I have a problem. And you are the doctor, so you can help.”

“… Yes?” Gina asked as she raised an eyebrow.

“Well, I’m not sure… but it’s bothering me, and I wanted to know if you could make it better.”

“Make what better?”

Jack looked around before glancing back at her, “Can we talk about this in private?”

Gina looked confused, and slightly suspicious, but as she was the doctor of the ship, she complied nonetheless.

Once they were in his Cabin, Jack closed the door as Gina sat on the bed.

“Well?” she asked with a heavy sigh, “Tell me what your problem is.”

Abruptly, Jack’s demeanor changed. A small smirk graced his features as he stood in front of her.

“Well, you see, lass, I’ve been having a strange urge,” he was undoing his sash, “And I think you have the… ahem, skills… to take care of it.”

With that, he dropped his pants, exposing his wonderful erection for all to see (well, just Gina).

“YOU PREV!”

The crewmates on deck heard Gina’s shriek, followed by another shriek, this one sounding much more like Jack. Then, the door to his Cabin flew open with a bang, and Gina came storming out.

“I HOPE YOU ROT, YOU DICKHEAD!”

Jack didn’t emerge to chase her down (in reality, he was writhing on the floor, curled up into fetal position). The crew didn’t even dare to try and figure out what was going on.

“Lass, let me explain…”

“Are you incapable of taking anything seriously at all!?” Gina roared at him, “What is your problem!? You don’t do something like that to someone you don’t even know!”

Jack scratched his dreadlocks, slightly sheepish, “It always worked before…”

“You idiot! I’m not like one of those scum bag whores! They’ll screw anybody so long has they have a dick!”

Captain Sparrow looked highly offended – The Great Pirate Captain of the Caribbean Sea didn’t screw just anyone! His loins were required to have only the best! Did she not see that he had chosen her among his exclusive set of lovers?

“And besides that,” she continued to rant, “You shouldn’t be dicking around like a tool! Don’t you remember what Will told you!? That pirate is looking for you and he’s going to kill you!”

“Oh, that?” Jack waved it off as if it wasn’t really a big deal, “That is a simple story, actually. I had asked to borrow Ol’ Roger’s map to the Fountain of Youth, and I haven’t finished using it yet. Luckily the island, known as Phoenix Island, isn't all that far. I reckon we'll be there in at most a day.”

“So you stole the map,” Gina deadpanned.

“No, lass, borrowed. I’ll give it back when I’m done.”

Gina rolled her eyes and stood up in a huff. “I don’t need this,” she growled as she began stalking away.

“W-Wait lass…” Jack grasped her wrist. She slowly turned to glare at him murderously. He paled, and nearly cringed, but he fought that urge desperately. Deep down, he just wanted to scream.

“I’m sorry, lass,” he apologize as sincerely as he could, considering he was a pirate. Gina’s eyes softened slightly, and she yanked her hand out of his grip.

“I’m going to go keep watch,” she grumbled as she walked away. The Captain watched her go, not entirely sure what to do. After all, he didn’t usually come across women like her. That last one had been Elizabeth, and even Elizabeth wasn’t as fussy as Gina. Was it because of the fact that she was from the future? Had things changed so much?

“… No, probably not…” Jack thought aloud. he did decide, however, that he would approach her in the afternoon and apologize again. Hopefully she would be calm enough to avoid mortally wounding him.

“Idiot… loser… lecher… it figures that the men here are just as pathetic as the ones I deal with on a daily basis…”

Gina sighed, adjusting her head to a more comfortable position against her arms. “I wanna go home.”

She thought back to her friends and family at home. They were probably losing their minds over her spontaneous and inexplicable disappearance. It had been nearly a week since she fell through the portal under her sister’s bed. She didn’t leave a trace of her whereabouts, not like she had expected to fall into a parallel dimension, mind you. The authorities were probably stumped. Hell, they were probably assuming that she had been murdered.

“I really hope that they get some kind of sign… something… so that they don’t about assuming I’m dead.”

“They, lass?”

Gina stiffened. He really didn’t get the hint, did he? But she didn’t kick his ass from the deck to Kingdom Come. Instead, she buried her face into her arms, and let out a heavy sigh.

“My family,” her muffled voice replied through the sleeves of her sweatshirt, “And my friends. I just up and disappeared, which isn’t like me. They all probably think I was killed. Hell, when I get back, I’ll be arriving at my own funeral.”

Jack noticed that she was tightly clenching the fabric of her hoody.

“I just want to let them know that I’m okay,” her voice sounded defeated, miserable. Jack actually felt bad for being an idiot that morning. It appeared that she was bottling up a lot of stress.

He patted and rubbed her back comfortingly, not entire sure what to say. Instead, he glanced up at the sky as he felt a chill; a storm front was approaching. The dark clouds were just beginning to block out the sun. Well, this wasn’t good at all.

“I’m sure an opportunity will come up love,” Jack then glanced over at Gibbs, “Batten down the hatches.”

Gibbs nodded before turning and shouting orders. “All hands on deck! We don’t have all day, you scalawags!”

Jack watched the organized panic for a moment before turning his attention back to Gina, who hadn’t moved from her depressed post against the railing. He squeezed her shoulder, tugging slightly to hint that he needed her to sit up. The wind was starting to pick up, and it was getting dark fast.

“Something will present itself, I’m sure,” he reassured her, “But we need to get inside. A storm’s approaching.”

Gina looked slightly confused, but that was before the first icy rain drops began to fall.

“R-rain…?” A clap of thunder startled Gina into yelping.

“Yes, lass,” Jack’s voice was rising to be heard over the intensity of the wind and waves, “And we ought to be inside right about now, I’m sure! Come on!”

He quickly led her along the deck and back into the cabin. The storm was nearly in full force, so they were both positively drenched by the time Jack had shut the door securely.

“Do they always move so fast?” Gina asked as she watched Jack light the lantern. She was attempting to ignoring the deafening roar of the wind and rain outside.

“Aye. They can come out of nowhere. You’ve got to have an uncanny awareness if you want to sail on the high seas, like the Great Captain Sparrow.”

Gina opened her mouth to respond, but a beeping noise coming from her pocket caused her to snap it shut, and fish her cell phone of her pocket. Glancing at the screen curiously, Gina’s eyes slowly widened. There was a service bar.

There was service.

Jack watched her in bewilderment as she stepped around the room, holding the strange device in the air.

“Lass, what are you…?” he began to ask as she turned toward the door. Promptly, she sprinted from the room.

“Lass!”

Meanwhile, Gina was fighting to keep her footing on the deck as she desperately sought to get better service. There! A second bar! And now a third! It must have been because of the electricity in the air; it must've helped to carry her radio waves through the warp portal! There was a chance she could contact home!

Frantically, she began to text her mom.

Mom! I’m fine! You’ll never believe where I am right now, but just trust me. I’ll be home as soon as I can. I’ll try to keep you posted! Love, G.

Gina clicked the “Send” button, and watched as the screen flashed “Sending Message”.

Sending Message… Sending Message… Sending Message… Message Sent!

Gina went to pocket her phone, but she stumbled and dropped it. It bounced down into the belly of the ship.

“NO!” she shrieked, throwing herself at the grating, “MY PHONE! MY PHONE!”

Gibbs was down there, and he picked up the little trinket, “Lass, is this yours?!”

“Yes, it is! Don’t let it get wet! Protect it with your life, or I’ll kill you! I’ll be right down!”

“Lass!”

Gina stood up precariously and looked over at the origin of the voice. Jack was trying to get to her, “You’ve got to come back inside, lass! It’s dangerous out here!”

“I’ve gotta get my phone…!” The ship suddenly lurched, tossing Gina to the ground, tumbling until she careened into the rail where her head slammed into the hard wood painfully. Jack moved to go to her, but the ship lurched again, and he slipped, falling to the floor. When he tried to get up, he found to his dismay that his leg had been caught up in a pile of netting.

“Bugger!” He noticed Gina staggering to her feet, “Lass! Just stay where you are! I’ll come to you!”

She didn’t seem to hear him; she had hit her head a lot harder than he realized. She was very obviously in a daze.

Then, the Black Pearl rocked against a wave. Gina stumbled backwards over the railing and into the black and angry waters below.

A/N: OMG a cliffhanger! What'll happen to our dear lost child!? I actually haven't decided, but fear not, she's not gonna die. Then this story would've been completely and utterly pointless. I might as well have just deleted it if that were the case. But fear not! I lot of shit still needs to go down; after all, I made up a bad guy. Anyways, I hope the taste of suspense in this story doesn't frighten all you followers away; I'd be really sad! But Read, review, and love! I hope you've enjoyed! And I'll try to update again as soon as I actually come up with what I want to have happen! Yay!
