Um'kay so this is a story, or a line of stories that popped into my head not long ago, and I thought, heck someone has to have done this before, so I looked for one, but I couldn't find one, so I decided to write it.
Yes I know it's a bit of an odd idea, but I hope you like it, it's the stories of the crew on the Flying Dutchman told from there point of view. Some will be random events on the boat, and some will be about their past. Either way, I hope to make it interesting with a mix of genres and a mix of characters (some from the movie and some made up).
If anyone has any plot ideas for a chapter in this story or a character they would like to have in here I would be happy to do so, just say so in the review.
Now then, on to the story.

Monologues from the Crew
By: Sapphire Orb
Prologue:
Stories Untold
Remember the Ones who died at sea
All destined t' be damned for eternity.
Aboard the Dutchman they will go
Those you love n' those you know.
Yo ho, yo ho,
Bring the souls of all you know.
Yo ho, yo ho,
To the locker they will go.
Out to sea for a terrible fate
Those who take the devils bate.
A single yes, said in true
And soon their part of his terrible crew.
Yo ho, yo ho,
Bring the souls of all you know.
Yo ho, yo ho,
To the locker they will go.
All sailors who've gone to sea
Destined to stay for eternity.
No escape for those who run,
The ship gives up not a single one.
Yo ho, yo ho,
Bring the souls of all you know.
Yo ho, yo ho,
To the locker they will go.
Every person has their story, some have remembered, some have forgotten, but the story is there, many times overlapped by a larger story, one that is more important, more interesting, but that doesn't mean that its not there. Stories, untold and unheard, affect the larger story just as much as the larger story affects history, for no event could happen without there first being a smaller story to trigger it.
You already know of the larger story, that of Davy Jones. You have heard of it in full, of his love for Calypso, his fate at sea, her betrayal and his, but yet you still know nothing of those who surround him, of those aboard the Dutchman, of those who are also cursed to his fate because they feared death. Perhaps it is time that you learned of there story, and how they affect the outcome of all.
Then, perhaps, you will see just how much the smallest story affects that of its whole; for had none of them been so afraid of death; Davy Jones would never have been seen as the devil of the seas, he would never have become the pirate he did, and perhaps never the monster he became.
These are the stories of his crew, some have gone, and some are still here, as a permanent part of the ship, but all have left there own markings, and many continue to do so, and will continue to do so for all eternity.
Welcome aboard the Flying Dutchman, and welcome to the crew.
Stories told n' songs be sung
Of those who stay forever young.
Aboard the ship; there eternal cell
Trapped forever in this terrible hell!
Yo ho, yo ho,
Bring the souls of all you know.
Yo ho, yo ho,
To the locker they will go…
