"Captain Jack Sparrow is dead?" Murmured a disbelieving female voice from within the darkness of Tia Dalma's cabin. Elizabeth grimaced as the guilt began to sink in. She'd been listening to Tia and Barbossa explain the call of the brethren court and the plan to rescue Jack which she realized had one fatal floor.
"He'll never come back." She sighed earning a confused look from Will. "Why would he? Most of us here have done him wrong in the past, why would he come with us?"
Tia Dalma smiled her mischievous smile. "That's where she can help." She said pointing into the shadows.
A young woman dressed in tight black trousers, white shirt, brown under bust corset, brown knee high boots, and a worn in tri-cone hat stepped into the light. She adjusted her sword and pistol and pushed her red hair, some pieces braided, behind her shoulder.
"Who are you?" Asked Will.
Even Barbossa stared at her, unsure. "It can't be." He whispered.
"I think it is." Countered Gibbs.
The woman's deep green eyes glistened in the dim light and her full, soft pink lips twitched into a smile.
Ragetti stepped forward. "That's Tora Black that is!"
"But you've been dead for five years!" Gasped Pintel.
"Five years too long." Said Tora with a smirk. Elizabeth felt a sudden dislike towards her.
"I don't mean to be rude but why would Jack come back with you?" She asked.
Tora sat on a nearby table and lifted a long black cord that was dangling around her neck. Attached in the middle were three beads. One dark red, one dark green and one golden yellow.
"Because these belong to him and I'm sure he'd like them back."
She tucked the necklace back inside her shirt and turned to look at Barbossa.
"Shall we go to Singapore then?"

"A dangerous song to be singing for anyone ignorant of it's meaning. Particularly a woman, particularly a woman alone." Threatened Tai Huang.
Barbossa and Tora stepped out from the shadows.
"What makes you think she's alone?" Smirked Barbossa.
Eventually after the whole ordeal with Sao Feng and the East India Trading Company, Barbossa, Tora, Elizabeth, Will and the crew were sailing towards Davey Jone's locker. Will and Tora sat opposite each other inspecting Sao Feng's charts.
"Over the edge, over again. Sunrise sets flash of green. Care to interpret, Captain Barbossa?" Asked Will.
Barbossa looked thoughtful for a second and glanced at Tora.
"Ever gazed upon the green flash, miss Black?"
Tora spoke as she re-braided a peice of her red hair.
"I've seen my fair share. It's a rare occasion, the last glimpse of sunset is a green flash of light that shoots up into the sky, signaling a lost soul returning to our world from the dead." She finished looking up at the two walls of ice the ship was approaching.
"Trust me, young master Turner. It's not gettin' to the land of the dead that's the problem. It's gettin' back."

"LOST?" Shouted Elizabeth staring wide eyed at Tora who was stood beside Barbossa at the helm of the ship.
"Aye! You've got to be good an' lost to find places that can't be found." Grinned Tora.
As the crew panicked around them Tora and Barbossa merely laughed as they plummeted into the blackness of the waterfall.
