All your fault

Summary: Jack and Barbossa get marooned on an island...they´re not happy about it

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jack claimed it was fate. Or bad luck. An angry god. A pissed Calypso. Davy Jones revenge from his wet grave. Karma maybe.

Barbossa said it was a typhoon that slowed down the Pearl that made both of them reach the cave at the same moment.

If Jack had acted wise, he would have run, taken a coin and then left the island again instead of dealing with a pirate crew (which was heavily armed).

But according to Jack´s rule #1 (I am captain Jack Sparrow!), he acted like he would always do.

He charged at Barbossa, attacked and tried to take his pearl back.

If Barbossa had reacted as cool as he claimed to be, he would take a gold back and leave.

But he was somehow pissed about Jack killing him and struck back.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the days when they belonged to the same crew, were on not exactly friendly, but tolerating terms, they used to practice with their swords. If you´re stuck at sea, with no wind for two days, you´ll gladly accept any chance to distract yourself.

They two fought against each other. Of course didn´t they tell anyone, but they were never able to beat the other. Slash for slash, stroke for stroke, cratch for scratch- they were equals.

Jack was a talented swordsman and unpredictable.

Barbossa was a brilliant fighter, but stuck to the old lessons on how he learned to fight.

In the end they knocked themselves out.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next thing they knew was that they were all alone, on a godforsaken island, watching someone sail away with the pearl.

(It was Pintel who found them and remembered his previous attempts to become captain. After the first voting (which meant a complete draw - because every pirate voted for himself) Pintel won the second, because Ragetti gave him his vote. He told him he would. And after they dumped the still unconcious ex-captains on a little island (they didn´t bother to take their weapons away- they were still afraid of Barbossa and consider leaving Jack unarmed would be unfair then-) Captain Pintel had however in his euphoric state forgotten that he left them with the maps and Jack´s compass. He noticed when they were a few miles away. And counted on the Pearl´s speed to escape the ex-captains´ fury.

Barbossa turned to Jack. Jack turned to Barbossa. "That is all your fault" they said in unison.


Author´s talk: sorry for no pirate language, but as a non native speaker it´s hard to sound like as a pirate when you can´t even speak regular English properly
