Pass the Pen
Chapter 3, Quite the Shin-dig

By Tigger

"As you wish, Miss Elizabeth. Anything for you, my dear." Jack said with a lecherous smile. He picked up his bottle of rum and said, "Which way is the door?"

"That way." said the Governor sternly, pointing to the large oak doors at the opposite end of the room.

"Right," nodded Jack, turning back to the buffet table. Jack grabbed a drumstick and took a bite.

"Jack!" hissed Will, impatiently.

"What? Oh, right. Door."

Jack turned back to the Governor.

"Well it's quite the fancy shin-dig you've got here, Guv." he said with a sweeping bow, waving his half-eaten drumstick about.

Just as Jack had brought himself to his full upright position, very large guards came, seizing Jack back each arm.

"Though I can honestly say, I have been kicked out of better parties than this."

Without a word from the Governor, the guards were then dragging him towards the door.

"Not quite the escort I was hopin' to leave here with…" said Jack wryly, looking between to two guards.

When they reached the doors, the guards lifted him and tossed him out into the street where he landed flat on his backside.

As Jack sat there in the middle of the street watching the heavy oak doors shut with a loud "clunk", he then caught site of a young lady passing by.

" `Ello, love!" he said with another lascivious grin.

The young lady uttered a small cry before scurrying away.

"Must've been somthin' I said." he shrugged as he opened his bottle of rum.

*Back inside

"Father, I'm sorry. I have no idea how got in!" apologized Elizabeth.

The Governor looked at Will, slightly displeased.

"I don't see how you find him "a good man", Mr.Turner." was all the Governor said, shaking his head.

Luckily the rest of the haute ton of Port Royal quickly forgot the little disturbance caused by Jack Sparrow as the night continued. At least for that evening, for it was certain there would be talk of it for days to come.
