Summary: Chained to the mast of his beloved Pearl, Jack Sparrow faces certain death ...


He tugged at the shackle furiously. "Buggerbuggerbugger!" he chanted, teeth clenched. But the chain held.

The deck canted… things rolled. Dark eyes followed a cannonball… alit on salvation.

Sword drawn… reaching… stretching… snagging the iron ring…

Whirl! Smash! and oil bled thickly, slickly onto his hand.

He tried again…

Success!

Lips still tasting of hers (soft, moist, warm) tilted into a victorious smirk.

Ha! She'd thought to make him Kraken-bait, but he'd show her…!

Victory drained as a malevolent presence loomed…

ROAR!!! Corpse-laced breath, spewing slime…

Beloved hat reclaimed, Jack Sparrow turned a sword-sharp smile upon Certain Death.

"Hello, beastie…!"
