Hello my dears! I got a wonderful response to my question on whether to continue on or not and guess what..? On with the story!

Honestly I'm happy about that because I love writing this, it's very different haha

Oh ya and I don't own Pirates of the Caribbean… I know, sad isn't it?

Jack awoke with jump. He sat up and looked around his cabin.

He came to the conclusion that something was missing, but what?

"Caroline," he whispered.

"Good morning sleepy head," she said entering his cabin.

"Ah there ye are love," he smiled.

He loved the way she just glided across the room with ease. It only added to her beauty.

"Come here," she said grabbing onto his arms and pulling him up. "There's something I think you'll want to see."

"I have all I want right 'ere," he responded trapping her in a hug.

"Really Jack?" she mocked and slid out of his arms.

"Coming?" she asked turning around.

"Right behind ye," he answered.

Walking out onto the deck he realized Caroline was right. There was something there he wanted to see.

The Fountain of Youth.

Jack's crew and Barbossa was already bounding towards the island, leaving Caroline and her crew, and Jack on the ships.

"Men," Caroline screamed out.

Every person that dared say they were in her crew appeared instantly to her right side.

Jack took a couple steps back. While Jack loved her he was still slightly afraid of what she could do.

"I assume you all told them the secret of this place. You know as well as I that this place is dangerous and I want every man accounted for when this little adventure is over," she said pacing in front of them.

No one moved an inch.

"So you didn't. Well that's just wonderful," she muttered.

Caroline jumped into a longboat followed by Jack.

"What exactly is it we might be coming to face?" Jack asked as he watched her paddle.

Caroline had a suspicious look in her eyes. "You'll see. Just never go in front of me."

After a moment of silence he asked, "What's it like? Not feeling and all."

"You still feel Jack. Sure the physical pain is gone so you can get shot or stabbed and not feel a damn thing. But the emotional pain, that's something you can never escape from," she sighed.

"I lived with it this long, what's to stop me now? Forgive and forget love," he smiled.

"You always thought everything had an easy way away," she laughed to herself.

"Is that why ye seem so cold to yer crew?" he asked.

She shot him a look.

"Don't get me wrong, I love ye for everything yer worth," he said, causing her to blush. "But you are rather, well, horrible to them. Ye just don't want to get hurt again."

"You think you know everything don't you?" she laughed, splashing water into his face.

"Refreshing," he winked.

"You sure you want to drink that water Jack?" she asked, changing the subject to something a little more serious.

"Why wouldn't I? I'd be free to sail the seas for eternity," he mused.

"Aye that's a fine idea, but new times roll in and with those new ideas of freedom. The time of piracy as we know it is coming to an end my dear," she sighed.

"How true that is. I'm not gonna be watching it go easily."

"None of us are love. But we've accepted it," she smiled as they hit the shore.

"Ye'll just have to help me do that darlin'."

She just smiled and patted his leg as she hoped out of the boat and made her way to the rest of the crew.

Staggering up the white sands, Jack took in his surroundings.

Before him was a ring of a little colored rock surrounded with trees. The trees all had different colors of flowers in full bloom. The sky was bluer than he'd ever seen it and not a cloud was in sight.

'This truly is paradise' he thought to himself.

"Never thought we'd be back in this hell hole," Jals said with a dark look in his eye.

"What could be so bad 'bout such a beautiful place?" Pintel asked.

"That's what we asked when we'd heard the rumors. So we went straight up there much like those fools," she said pointing to the newer members of Jack's crew who hadn't waited.

They were climbing up the rock structure to get to the lake in the middle.

"Well isn't tha where we be goin'," Barbossa asked with a raised eyebrow.

Suddenly there was a roar and the land they stood on began to shake. Everyone was knocked down into the sand.

"God damn it," Caroline cursed. "They aren't an important part of your crew are they?" she asked Jack, who was down next to her.

"Not particularly."

"Oh good."

"Why is tha…?"

His question was answered by the thud of three bodies landing in front of them. They're bodies were mangled with their limbs bending in ways that weren't natural. Cuts covered their now dead selves.

"That would be why you don't go up there," Caroline said standing up.

The rest of the men followed her lead, figuring it was safe now that there was no shaking.

Suddenly a groan came from one of the men followed by a blood curdling scream.

Caroline walked forward and pulled out her sword.

In one swift motion she plunged it into the man's abdomen.

He let out one last breath and then joined the others to the afterlife.

"Was that really necessary?" Ragetti said with raised eyebrows.

Caroline turned around and replied, "He wasn't going to live. Why not put him out of his suffering."

She withdrew her sword out of the dead body, flipped it around once, and then put it away, walking down the beach.

"You're meant to follow her," Jals chipped in, pushing some of the men after her.

"What do you suppose that was?" Pintel asked Gibbs.

"Isn't that the question." he answered trudging forward. "I've heard that a devil guards this island. Made it so it seems you're supposed hike up that trail there to find the water only to meet and early grave."

"But, why?" Ragetti pushed further for more information.

"Cause any man that dare come here is a greedy fool," he said.

At that Caroline stopped and turned around.

"Yes it be a devil that guards this island. But he did not create it to trick people up there. Once the water was there and a man who was a real greedy fool took it all, leaving none for any other man. So the gods punished him, made him a beast. So he never left the island, hid the water somewhere else and anyone who walks up there is, well you saw those men back there. When you're telling a story at least get it right," she growled.

Jals walked up to her and put his hands on her shoulders. "Calm down Miss. No need getting to angry at these men now," he whispered in her ear and she calmed instantly.

Needless to say, Jack now hated Jals on so many levels.

"The water's in that flower there," she hissed and pointed up to one of the trees.

At first it seemed to them that she'd gone crazy but taking a step closer they saw one was glass and inside was the water.

Gibbs walked up to it and yanked it off. They passed it around, each man taking a sip of it. A glow shined off each of them for a moment then any injuries on them disappeared into thin air.

Jack looked at the flower bottle and hesitantly took a sip of it once the rest of the men and Caroline walked away.

Or did he?

Uh oh! Did Jack not take a drink of the water? Why wouldn't he? What will happen now?

Sorry if it was kinda choppy, I just wanted to get something up for you guys ;)

Please review! Tell me what you thought and maybe what you want to see happen next? :D
