Chapter One: If It Were a Dream
A clouded sky, dreary with the grey of clouds, dark of night, a vast empty sea-then a swinging lantern, a meaningless pinprick compared to the endlessness of dark. Focusing closer, zooming in, it is a lantern of a ship-a dark one at that. A familar form, a figurehead of a maiden hands outstretched in the dim light. Does the audience recall it? Remember times past? The cursed men who once haunted it, lured by the call of ancient gold?
On the main deck,a soft but fast wind moves past the quietly attentive members of the crew on watch, creaks a door slightly open, it moves into the great cabin, past a desk and empty chair, through another door to a much smaller smace, a figure is asleep. Suddently, there is no ship, there are flashes of images.
Blurred indistinct figures are gathered except for one, a man who we know from previous adventures frowning.No beads, no two braids goatee, not yet, A glimpse of two figures seated at a table.Surrounded by figures. One flickering lantern swings. A hand is extended. The man hesitantly glances at it. Reluctantly shakes it. A chilling voice "Time's up..."
Eyes. Two brown eyes open, slowly the wind zooms out, it's him. Jack Sparrow.

Note: This first one was inspired by another. Months ago at (KTTC), a fellow KTTCer shared a theory. What if the beginning of Dead Man's Chest started with a dream sequence like The Curse of the Black Pearl? I wrote it then, when the question was posed, but I never posted it.
