He yelped when debris from the blast had gone flying past his ear, grazing it only slightly. He clutched Samdi's small hand, having just lost her not five minutes ago and they both began to run. Her legs were so much smaller than his that when she hadn't tripped on sprouting roots from the ground, she would trip on her own two feet trying to keep up with Jack. This endeavor had not worked very well so eventually, he lifted her up with a grunt and she wrapped her tiny legs around his waist and even smaller arms around his neck.

"They did not make you their chief, Papa!"

"No, it seems they did not!"

Had this been the opportune moment, a moment where father and daughter were sitting aboard a ship (namely the Black Pearl), Jack would have laughed and things would have been just lovely, but considering the price of his daughter, yes, his daughter's head, he decided against the laughter and chose to stick to the running. Maybe they had used a little too much of the gun powder. It had been Anamaria's idea.

Jack wasn't really up for saving anyone else at the moment. One extra little person was enough.

One more blast and Jack could feel the heat on his back. Samdi squealed with delight and seemed to be awed by the explosions. That was something she must have inherited from her silly mother.

"SPARROW, you yeasty maggot, put that girl down!"

He halted in his tracks but did not bother to turn around. Barbossa had managed successfully to escape a cave laced with gun powder, a village of cannibalistic cohabitants, and still all he truly wanted to do was kill Jack.

"Can we do this some other time?" Jack slowly turned around and motioned to little Samdi, who was now placed on his hip and holding his neck a little too tightly. Barbossa did have the absolute worst timing in the most stressful situations. There were explosions going off, explosions that were not properly effective.

"Give me tha' little brat and yah free ta' go."

Jack perked his eyebrows and turned to Samdi. "That's all you want, then?"

Anamaria and Gibbs had both laced that cave with all the gun powder they could find from the Pearl, and well, now it was sort of backfiring. Shards of crushed rock rained painfully over their heads and they were running as fast they could. Anamaria's tribal gear did seem to have a disadvantage when it came to running. For the most part, she was used to running in something a little less revealing and sometimes, shoes helped as well.

They'd seen Barbossa chase after Jack and Samdi and that's how the explosion thing really did backfire.

"Mr. Gibbs?" Anamaria ran alongside him, actually slowing down a bit so he could keep up, "You need to make sure the crew doesn't get lost in the Land of Darkness, don't you think?"

"I'm not leavin' withou' Jack!" Gibbs was adamant about this decision, had been this way since she'd known him to be a pirate alongside Jack Sparrow. "Wait for us then!" Her feet kicked up and she passed Gibbs without a glance back. "I'm going to get my daughter and I'm going to get her papa, too!" Anamaria hadn't quite believed the words that came from her mouth but there it was. She was off to rescue Jack Sparrow, again. The only problem was there was no Will Turner, no crew, and no Pearl this time around.

It wouldn't be long before the Se'Kar tribe caught up with them. After all, two of the men had stolen something very important - very special to them and Anamaria could only pretend to be the reincarnated Goddess Wuhu for so long. For that, she would kill Jack, but now, she must get to Samdi and get the hell out of this place.

Gibbs called after her, but she did not stop. She followed the path they'd taken to get to this clearing and the biggest blast from the cave knocked her from her feet.

A large piece of debris landed by her head and she cried out despite herself. A strong and rather hairy hand lifted her and she looked up to find Gibbs standing next to her. "We get Jack and Samdi together." Anamaria nodded and they took off in a sprint.

She ran as fast as her legs would carry her, even when they begin to ache she did not stop. She stopped in her tracks when she spotted Jack sitting Samdi down and Barbossa holding out a hand. Samdi slowly walked towards him.

"Jack, what are you doing?" She screamed, feeling her stomach drop and her heart become heavy.
