Notes: Here it is, Part Five! Enjoy and please read and review if you've got the time, thanks!
So bright, was the first thing that came into my mind when I first looked round the locker. I don't think I could spend forever here, I'll go mad. Why did I stay on that ship? Why?
"You!" I heard a voice shout at me on the deck of the Black Pearl. I turned to see Jack and smiled with relief, that's the reason why I stayed on the ship.
"Who are you and what are you doing on my ship?" asked Jack
"It's Anna, you know me! I've been in your crew before you was Captain!" I replied
"You look nothing like my crew, as you can see" answered Jack
"Jack, we're the only ones here" I raised my eyebrow.
"It's Captain to you, now take her to the brig!" Jack ordered to an empty deck which started to worry me. I would have to spend forever with a dearest friend who lost his mind and couldn't remember me.
"You useless bunch of scallywags!" shouted Jack and then grabbed my arm and pulled me down to the brig.
As he locked me in the cell I pleaded "Jack, please! You know me! Remember the kidnap, you becoming Captain, the mutiny, Tortuga, the Aztec gold, the kraken, you've got to remember!"
Jack looked at me curiously; I thought there was a chance he remembered, maybe I was wrong, but I knew somewhere in the back of his mind he knew what I was on about. As he walked off a tear strolled down my face, what was going to happen now? What did me and Jack do so bad to deserve this punishment?
I worried that the more I thought of past memories the more I would forget, but flashbacks of my adventures on the Black Pearl with my friends kept coming through my mind making me miss they even more, especially the half sane Jack, I would say normal, but that's going too far. Then I thought if Jack was losing his mind, then in the end I would too. I grew nervous as I tapped on the salty wood in the gloomy brig, it was so dark but with that sun out there, this was much better.
As boredom and worry kicked in even more, I started to try and kick the cell door. It was making so much noise I was surprised Jack didn't come down. I soon gave up and curled myself in a ball on the cool floor as I looked at the walls. I noticed the carvings I had mad so many years ago when I had been trying to escape after the mutiny. I rubbed the soft wood, remembering my past times as I started to sing softly "Yo ho, all together, hoist the colours high, heave ho, thieves and beggars, never say we die"
Suddenly the ship started to move, I had no idea how as from what I could tell, I didn't see no ocean on the horizon. I still laid on the wooden floor as the ship was moving along I started to mumble "We pillage, we plunder and don't give a hoot, drink me' hearties yo ho…"
I was cut off as someone behind me finished "A Pirate's life for me"
Jack!" I smiled and turned to see him unlocking the cell door.
"Do you remember now?" I asked
"Aye" he replied, looking a bit confused
"We're in Davy Jones's locker, Jack" I informed him
"No we're not, where ever did you get that idea from?" he remarked
"Hm, since the kraken ate us, maybe?" I rolled my eyes as we ran up onto the deck.
"How is the ship moving?" I asked
"Eh, rocks" he mumbled
Rocks? I thought to myself, yeah he'd lost it. But then how was the ship moving? I must be going mad too! As Jack climbed onto the crow's nest, I ran to the front of the ship. I peered over the edge and saw the ocean; I smiled as I felt the long awaited breeze rush through my hair. I peered closer to see people on the beach and wondered did the kraken get them too?
The Black Pearl then crashed into the waves where it belonged and always will. Me and Jack lowered the long boat ready to go ashore, even though I still thought he wasn't convinced I was there.
We then got to the shore and I finally realised it was Jack's crew and our old friends!
"A sight for sore eyes, Jack, Anna!" exclaimed Gibbs
"Mr. Gibbs!" shouted Jack
"Aye, Captain" replied Gibbs, confused by Jack's angry tone.
"I thought so. I expect you can account for your actions then" remarked Jack
"Sir?" asked Gibbs, looking a little lost.
"There has been a perpetual and virulent lack of discipline aboard my vessel, why is that sir?" explained Jack
"You're in Davy Jones's Locker, Captain" mumbled Gibbs
"I know that, I know where I am and don't think I don't" remarked Jack
"He's lost it a bit" I mouthed to Gibbs as he nodded his head.
"Jack Sparrow!" called a voice
I turned to see Barbossa and was so shocked; he was the last person I expected to see. But Jack just smiled "Ah, Hector, it's been too long, hasn't it?"
"Aye, Isla de Muerta remember? You shot me" remarked Barbossa
"No I didn't" replied Jack and then started to talk with Tia Dalma as I walked up to Barbossa "How did you survive?"
"How did you?" he smirked
Ah, he always had to be difficult I thought and then turned back to listen to the conversation.
"He thinks we're a hallucination" remarked Will
"William, tell me something. Have you come because you need my help to rescue a certain distressing damsel? Or rather a damsel in distress? Either one" replied Jack
"No" said Will
"Then you wouldn't be here. So you can't be here. Q.E.D. you're not really here" smiled Jack
"Jack, this is real, we're here" replied Elizabeth from the crowd, the reason why me and Jack was here. Jack looked at her like he remembered and scuttled back over to me.
"We've been in the locker?" he asked
"Yes! I've been trying to tell you!" I answered
"And we've come to rescue you" added Elizabeth
"Have you, now? That's very kind of you. But seeing as I possess a ship and you don't, it seems as though you're the ones in need of rescuing and I'm not sure as I'm in the mood" explained Jack
"He's got a point" I mumbled
"I see my ship, right there" remarked Barbossa, pointing to the Pearl.
"Can't spot it, must be a tiny little thing hiding somewhere behind the Pearl" said Jack
"Cutler Beckett has the heart of Davy Jones. He controls the Flying Dutchman" informed Will
"He's taking over the seas!" added Elizabeth
"The song has already been sung. The Brethren Court is called" Tia also added
"We leave you people alone for a minute and look what's happened, everything's gone to pot!" exclaimed Jack
"Aye, the world needs you back, something fierce" replied Gibbs
"And you need a crew" added Will
"Why should I sail with any of you? Four of you have tried to kill me in the past, one of you succeeded" remarked Jack, pointing to Elizabeth and everyone looked at her surprised.
"Oh, she's not told you? You'll have loads to talk about while you're here" smirked Jack and started to go round to the crew.
"Ignore him, Elizabeth" I reassured her.
"Oh good, you're not mad a me as well are you?" she replied
"Nope, you do the right thing" I answered
"But I killed you" she seemed surprised
"True enough, but it's not like we're really dead" I smiled and I looked at what was happening now as I saw Barbossa smirk as he tapped on some charts "Which way ya goin', Jack?"
