If I owned Pirates of the Caribbean I wouldn't be writing this now, savvy? Any familiar character belongs to Disney, so any unfamiliar character belongs to me:)

Jack kissed her cheek before pushing himself up and left the cell, leaving Victoria behind on the floor of their cell, he hand held against the, now hot burning, cheek he had kissed.

It took Victoria several moments to remember what was going on, quickly following Jack they walked to the weapon room that was located near the cells and retrieved their weapons. As Jack handed Victoria her sword his gaze lingered on it for a moment.

"That be a beautiful sword ye know."

Victoria smiled, "Thank you, I made it myself."

Suddenly a deafening noise sounded, seconds before the Pearl shook back and forth.

"What was that?"

"I don't know luv, but I didn't sound too good. Come on, we're goin' on deck."

Grabbing her hand, Jack pulled Victoria behind him as he quickly walked up the stairs and onto the deck. As they walked onto the deck, there were dozens of pirates fighting each other, ducking down to avoid bullets that were flying around, Jack and Victoria made their way over to the port side of the Pearl, that laid parallel to the Interceptor. Grabbing the shrouds with his free hand, Jack stepped onto the railing before pulling Victoria onto it.

"How are we going to the Interceptor", Victoria asked, for she had the feeling that that was Jack's plan.

Jack watched at the pirates that swung back and forth between the two ships, not bothering to answer for the moment. As a pirate swung right towards them, Victoria ducked to avoid a collision, the pirate fell on the deck behind her and as she looked back towards Jack she noticed the rope the other pirate had been using was firmly in his hand.

"We fly o' course. Hold tight."

Still holding the rope in one hand, Jack wrapped the other arm tight around Victoria's waist. Pressed against his chest, Victoria could do nothing else then wrapping her arms around Jack's neck, just in time before Jack jumped slightly backwards, before swinging both of them towards the Interceptor. They had too much speed they swung over the Interceptor, causing them to swing back towards the Pearl, while knocking someone over. Finally swinging back towards the Interceptor again, Jack let go of the rope and with a loud thud the two landed on the deck of the Interceptor.

"Jack!"

Turning towards the sound, Victoria saw Gibbs looking at Jack and her, slightly surprised by their appearance. As soon as Jack saw him too he took the flask out of his pocket and shove it into Gibbs' hands.

"Bloody empty."

Gazing over the Interceptor, Victoria spotted Elizabeth near the stern of the ship. Dragging Jack, who had his arm still wrapped around her waist, towards her Victoria noticed that Elizabeth was about to be cornered by a pirate who raised his sword to her. Out of the corner of her eye, Victoria saw Jack's free arm shoot forwards and grab the wrist of the other pirate. Jack's grip caused the pirate to turn around and look who stood behind him.

"That's not very nice", Jack said, while at the same time Elizabeth raised her hand and slapped the pirate across his face, sending him flying over the railing into the sea.

Grabbing Elizabeth's shoulder, Jack pulled both ladies down while looking at Elizabeth, slightly angry.

"Where's the medallion?", he demanded.

"Wretch!" she spat and went to slap him like she had done with the other pirate, but before she could hit him, both Victoria's and Jack's hand closed over her wrist, immobilising the arm. Jack's gazed flickered toward the bandage that was wrapped around her hand, while Elizabeth followed the second hand to see Victoria crouching next to her.

"What are you doing here?"

"Saving you", Victoria said, "Why is it that the last couple of time I've seen you, you were always around pirates?"

Before Elizabeth could respond, Jack spoke up as he looked back at Elizabeth.

"Ahh. Where's dear William?"

Elizabeth's eyes widened with his question, and Victoria could feel herself stiffen up too, with all the events that happened since Will had parted from her and Jack on Island de Muerta, she had forgotten about him.

"Will!"

Elizabeth jumped up and run towards the middle of the ship where the main mast had fallen down, Victoria ran after her, only to come eye in eye with her brother who was trapped on the deck below him, with water the already reached his waist.

"Elizabeth! Victoria!", Will gasped as he saw the two women.

Moving towards the mast, Victoria and Elizabeth tried to move it so they could free. While pushing against the mast, Victoria heard Jack shout "Monkey" while he rushed past her and Elizabeth, but she was too concerned about her brother's safety to care about it.

"I can't move it!", Elizabeth yelled as she moved away from the mast, looking at Will again. Both girls were too taken up with the man stuck on the deck below that they didn't notice the pirates coming up behind them until it was too late. Arms wrapped around their waists and they were pulled away from where Will was stuck.

"Victoria! Elizabeth!"

Victoria tried to break free from the man's grip, but it deemed to be impossible, as she was dragged back to the Black Pearl, she noticed the monkey that was always near Barbossa's run over the broken mask, the medallion in it's front paw, and Jack climbing after him, reaching out with his hand, only to draw back his hand when he noticed Barbossa in front of him, holding the medallion in his left hand.

"Why, thank you, Jack", he said, scratching the monkey behind his ears.

"You're welcome", Jack said and grinned widely.

Barbossa glared at him and sneered, "Not you. We named the monkey Jack."

Raising the medallion for everyone to see, Barbossa raised his voice so that everyone could hear him, "Gents, our hope is restored!"

Bo' sun grabbed Jack from the mast and dragged him towards the main mast of the Pearl where the rest of the Interceptor's crew stood chained already. He, Victoria and Elizabeth were chained next to their crew while Barbossa's pirates cut the roped between the Interceptor and the Black Pearl, already sailing away when the last members of Barbossa's crew swung back onto the Pearl, grinning evily.

Pintel had his gun pointed on the Interceptor's crew, looking mean at them while telling them to 'not even think about Parley'.

Victoria stood a little bit awkwardly between Jack and Elizabeth, while Barbossa gazed back at the Interceptor which now floated broken in the vast sea. The silence was broken by a loud noise as the Interceptor exploded and caught fire. Both Victoria and Elizabeth flung themselves forwards at the sight, gasping as they knew that Will was still in there.

"Will! No!", Victoria shouted before turning towards Barbossa, "How could you!"

Before Victoria could even move towards Barbossa, Elizabeth flung past her and attacked Barbossa, her hands clenched into fists.

"You've got to stop it! Stop it!", she yelled as he grabbed her wrists to stop her from hitting him.

"Welcome back, Miss. You took advantage of our hospitality last time. It holds fair now that you return the favour", Barbossa smirked and pushed her to his crew.

Flailing her arms to regain her balance, Elizabeth got hold of Victoria's arm and pulled her into the crowd the now surrounded her.

"Let go o' her!", Jack's voice came as a relief to Victoria as it stilled the hands that were now groping her.

"She's got nothin' t' do here!"

"Which one", Barbossa grinned evily, "T' one in t' dress or t' on dressed like a lad."

Before Jack could reply a noise sounded from the side of the Pearl. Victoria looked over just in time to see het brother climbing onto the deck, causing her to sigh in relief to see him alive.

"Barbossa!", Will yelled hoarsely while pointing a loaded gun towards Barbossa, "They go free!"

Barbossa strutted over to him, only to stop right in front of him, "What's in yer head, boy?"

"They go free", Will repeated.

"You've only got one shot, and we can't die."

"Don't do anything stupid", Jack said, almost pleadingly, causing Will to glance at him for a moment, his face set before jumping back onto the railing, the gun pointed at himself.

"You can't. I can."

Jack sighed and hung his head low. "Like that."

Victoria looked back and forth between the two of them, while agreeing with Jack that her brother's action was indeed stupid, she saw why he did it. Will was so deeply in love with the Governors daughter that he would give up his own life to safe her, and knowing that it was his blood Barbossa wanted, he was in a strong position to demand what he wanted. The only problem was that Barbossa didn't know it was Will, or her, he wanted. Barbossa seemed to have come to that conclusion too.

"Who are you?" he asked curiously.

Will opened to answer him, but Jack cut off any response while he rushed forwards, positioning himself between Will and Barbossa.

"No one." Jack said, "He's no one. A distant cousin of my aunt's nephew twice removed. Lovely singing voice, though eunuch."

Victoria sighed and shook her head, Jack might be clever on occasions, after all he always got himself out of the most dangerous situations with his confusing speeches, but sometimes he came up with the most idiotic explanations.

While Victoria tried to get the prying hands of her person now the pirates were more concerned with Will then her, her brother spoke up again.

"My name is Will Turner. My father was Bootstrap Bill Turner. His blood runs in my veins."

"He's the spitting image of ol' Bootstrap Bill come back to haunt us", Ragetti said fearfully from behind Victoria.

"On my word do as I say, or I'll pull this trigger and be lost to Davy Jones Locker", Will threatened while he curled his finger around the trigger.

Barbossa's eyes narrowed while he looked at Will.

"Name your terms, Mr. Turner."

"Elizabeth goes free. And so does Victoria", Will said immediately.

Barbossa rolled his eyes and sighed irritably, "Yes, we know that one. Anything else?"

Out of the corner of her eyes, Victoria noticed Jack waving towards Will before pointing at himself.

"And the crew , the crew are not to be harmed."

"Agreed", Barbossa said viciously, "Put them in the cells!"

Hands closed around Victoria's wrist as she was pulled down to the brig for the second time that day. Victoria was pushed into one of the smaller cells, together with Jack and Elizabeth while the rest of the crew was pushed in another cell.

"Never thought I would see t' inside o' t' cells o' me own ship so much", Jack said as he sat down on the wet floor, stretching his legs in front of him.

"What do you mean?", Elizabeth demanded as she wrinkled her nose at the smell that hung around in the brig, "Your ship?"

"T' Pearl used t' be mine, luv", Jack said as he gazed up t' her, "Until that scurvy mutt Barbossa mutinied against me. Didn't t' whelp tell you?"

"No", was the only thing that cam for Elizabeth before she remained silent. It was quite strange, Victoria mused, the brig was filled with 2 dozen of pirates, but none of them had something to say at the moment. Instead they choose to remain silent and sit on the floors of their cells, waiting to see what would happen to them next. Victoria thought they'd been in their cells for several hours when Pintel and Ragetti came in the brig.

"Hello poppet", Pintel grinned as he unlocked the door of their cell, "T' capt'n wants you three on deck, wants ye t' see somethin' Sparrow."

Having two pair of swords and pistols pointed at them, Jack, Victoria and Elizabeth walked upstairs onto the deck. Standing between those pirates once again, Victoria felt slightly fearful, seeing that she was unarmed and her hands tied together. Earlier that they she had had her sword at least, now she had nothing to defend herself with if one of them decided to attack her. Her only comfort came from Jack who was pressed against her by Barbossa's crew. Looking around Victoria noticed that Barbossa had let go of the anchor near a small island. The island itself looked rather nice, surrounded by the white sand beaches that were common in the Caribbean, and palm trees in the middle of the island. The only problem was that it was in the middle of nowhere, besides the Pearl and water there was nothing on the horizon.

Next to her, Jack too stared at the island that laid in front of them, murmuring, "Not that island again" so soft that only Victoria could hear him.

A/N A quick update this time, got off work early today and besides annoying my parents I hadn't much else too do, a good reason to continue with BTH wouldn't you say? I hope to have the next chapter finished on Sunday, but, if not, it will be out early next week.

A/N2, As always, thanks for reading and please leave a review with your thought about the story:)
