The next morning came quickly as all the pirates prepared for war. They sharpened their blades and polished their pistols as they waited for the enemy in one big line of ships side by side. The Golden Rose was right next to the Black Pearl in case of the chance of a Parlay meeting.

Arabella stood at the front of the ship, staring towards the ocean waiting for the enemy to come or in her thoughts, waiting for her love. She wondered what would become of them after all this was over, or was this it for them? If anything did happen, she didn't think she could live without him.

Suddenly from the cold mist entered the enemy ships as someone cried out "The enemy is here" and was followed by some shouts and war cries but they soon faded as the pirates noticed the amount of ships coming into sight.

"We're really outnumbered" mumbled Matthew

"I guess that means Parlay then" replied Arabella as she walked over to the side the Black Pearl was on and saw them lowering the small boat into the water.

"Lower the ladders Matt, I'm going with them" ordered Arabella

Arabella was soon in the long boat with Jack, Barbossa and Elizabeth making there way to the meeting of parlay but they all looked suspiously at her as her eyes drifted to some rope in Barbossa's hands as she questioned "What is that for?"

"You" he replied

"Me?" exclaimed Arabella

"We know Arabella" mumbled Jack

"Know what?" she asked

"That you're a spy for Beckett" answered Elizabeth

"What?!" exclaimed Arabella, thinking at first she thought they knew she loved him but she still acted confused as she was.

"You expect us to believe you?" remarked Barbossa

"Yes I do, you have no reason not to" explained Arabella

"Sorry Arabella, we have to do this" replied Jack then added "Hold you're arms out"

Arabella stared at him for a while but then held her arms out so he could tie the rope round her small wrists.

"You're all wrong about me" she mumbled

"We're just wait and see, won't we?" replied Barbossa


Beckett watched from the other side of the spit of land as the enemy came towards them but then noticed one extra to their party and he knew who it was a mile off. He looked closer as he saw Arabella had rope tied round hr wrists and was being dragged along by Barbossa. It meant they knew something was going on between them but he did not know what they suspected her of, but he knew the best thing was to deny all the allocations against her so she would still be safe and they wouldn't harm her.

"Why do you look so worried?" questioned Will

"I'm not, it's them that should be worried" he remarked as they came face to face with them. It was hard for Beckett to keep his eyes off Arabella but he tried his best anyway.

"You be the cur that led these wolves to our door" Barbossa snared to Will

"Don't blame Turner" smirked Beckett "He was merely the tool of your betrayal. If you wish to see its grand architect, look to your left" and everyone turned to glare at Jack as he protested "My hands are clean in this"

"My actions were my own and to my own purpose. Jack had nothing to do with it" remarked Will

"There! Listen to the tool!" smiled Jack

"Or maybe she had something to do with it" Barbossa added, nudging Arabella which made Beckett's blood boil inside.

"We know she's you're spy" explained Elizabeth

"My spy?" chuckled Beckett "Pirates intelligence is lower than I thought"

"So, she doesn't work for you?" asked Jack

"Jack, I don't work for him!" exclaimed Arabella

"If anyone is a traitor here Jack, it's you. You made a deal with me, to deliver the pirates, and here they are. Don't be bashful, step up, claim your reward" stirred Beckett and taking the attention off Arabella.

Your debt to me is still to be satisfied. One hundred years in service aboard the Dutchman. As a start" snapped Davy

"That debt was paid, mate, with some help" replied Jack nodding over to Elizabeth

"You escaped!" corrected Davy

"Technically …" Jack begun to say but was then cut off as Elizabeth interrupted ""I propose an exchange, Will leaves with us, and you can take Jack"

"Done!" exclaimed Will

"Undone!" replied Jack

"Done!" demanded Beckett

"Jack is one of the nine pirate lords, you have no right..." Barbossa begun to say but was cut off as Elizabeth smirked "King"

"As you wish" Jack teased as he bowed taking his hat off to her. There was a loud yelp as Barbossa drew his sword and cut the beads off of Jack's bandana as his monkey rushed to pick them up and jumped back onto his shoulders.

"If you have sometime to say, I might be saying something too" warned Barbossa

"First to the finish then" remarked Jack as him and Will exchanged places as Beckett smirked as he made Jack stand next to Davy as he snarled in his face "Do you fear death?"

"You have no idea" mumbled Jack

Then Beckett stepped forward "Advise your brethren, you can fight and all of you will die, or you can not fight in which case only most of you will die"

"You murdered my father" snarled Elizabeth

"He chose his own fate" sneered Beckett

"And you have chosen yours. We will fight, and you will die" Elizabeth warned him as she turned her back towards him as did all the others as Beckett and Arabella exchanged a quick glance as he mouthed "I love you"

"Always" she smiled back, holding back the tears in her eyes


.

Arabella got back aboard the Golden Rose after Barbossa and Elizabeth had both apologised about doubting her loyalty. She felt sad as she thought of that single moment could have been the last one that she and Beckett had together.

"Did you see him?" asked Matthew

"Yes" mumbled Arabella

Matthew was about to investigate further when something caught everyone's attention as all eyes went onto the Black Pearl.

They watched as something the crew was gathered around begun to expand on the deck, not only across but upwards.

"What's happening?" asked one of the crew

"They've released Calypso!" answered Arabella

There was a gasp as she grew tall as the mast as she shouted something that no one could understand and then suddenly crashed into millions of crabs, falling over the edge of the Black Pearl.

There was a silence amongst everyone as the skies turned grey and the wind grew up as the ocean started to move more violently.

"It's not over yet" mumbled Arabella as a cold shiver went through her.

The Golden Rose awaited orders off the Black Pearl, the flag ship of their army. They soon heard war cries from the Black Pearl as everyone was ordered to hoist there colours.

"Hoist the colours!" ordered Arabella as her crew hoisted there flag proudly in the darkened sky, this was it.
