Hiyas! Here's a little one-shot for ya's! This is basically what I think happened on the Black Pearl right when they found out about the last piece, when the 'gold called to them.' This is told in First Person Point of View by that Captain we all know and love, despite his bad dental plan, HECTOR BARBOSA!!!!! One last thing: By opening up this fic, you have just unwilling promised me you will review. If you break your promise, I will send Bo'sun out for you, and he will nail your eyes in place. Thank you!
Disclaimer: As much I really want to say yes to this question so you people will leave me alone, no, I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean.
The Gold Be Calling To Me
Elizabeth fanned herself, and tried to stay conscious. She sweated, and her chest had so much pressure on from her new corset, she fainted. The Commodore continued his ramble, as she descended into the Caribbean waters below.
I sit in me quarters, navigating our route. Every choice I've made, has my crew closer to another mutiny.
My stomach grumbles, and my throat is dry, but I cannot do anything about it. I sigh. In response, I feel a furry hand tug on my pant-leg that makes me jump slightly. I peer down to see Jack, my capuchin companion. He climbs up onto my left shoulder. Jack whines when I hand him a cracker that he knows will turn to ash in his mouth if tries to eat it.
"Jack," I say, "it is almost over. One-piece remains, the piece Boot-Strap sent off to his child. We be very close from the breaking of this curse."
Many shouts I hear from the outside deck. I beg that it's not a mutiny. Suddenly, my first mate bursts in.
"Captain," he says, "the weather is changing!" And, with that, Bo' sun left me, and walked back to the rest of me crew.
I put on me hat, and stalked out of the captain's quarters, to see black skies.. The calm sea just suddenly changed! The blue sky changed to black, and gray storming clouds form, and start to follow us here, in the Black Pearl. Then, I feel something, telling me to turn to the East. So natural, it's like instinct. Then, a vibration is seen in the water. A shock wave hits the ship.
"What was that?" I hear Koehler shout out.
"Get ready for a celebration ye sea dogs! We be close to the last piece. The one piece left. Turn to the Eastern skies, and get ready to quench your thirst!" All me crew cry out for joy and cheer.
"I know we're on the right course, and we be curse-free once more. I know the gold calls to me."
"How do you know?" One dares to ask me. Everyone quiets, and looks at him. They clear a path, but I already it was Ragetti. Even before Pintel smacked him, causing his eye to pop out. Lucky, he caught it. Bo'sun, as I can recall, offered to 'nail it into place for him'.
Sarcastic or not, that doesn't seem like a bad idea.
I walk up to Ragetti, so close are our faces. I see the sweat run down his cheek. Not a single person alone, especially someone like Ragetti, is brave enough to challenge me.
"I know, because it never lies. Instinct doesn't lie, and instinct is telling me to go to the east. I know it be calling. The gold calls to me."
"Y-yessir." He shuttered, turning port-side to steer, no doubt.
"And one last thing; I'm feeling a bit hungry. Bring me an apple."

Okay, my first entry on this in ages. I'm so sick and tired of putting up fanfictions, and no one will reply! Please, make this one different.
P.S. It's my first Pirates of the Caribbean fanfiction. I hope it's at least a little compatible! Thanks for reading! (and reviewing?)
P.P.S. Please ignore all my lame pirate ling-o!
