Capture
Gibbs: DUCK!!
Jack: Where? Frantically looks about.
Gibbs: No - duck!
Jack: Oh right - whoa!
The pair take cover as they hear gunfire. They slowly peer of the back rail of the ship to find the Dauntless catching on them.
Jack: What do they want?
Gibbs: I doubt they want to talk nicely…
A cannon ball whizzes past them and narrowly misses The Pearl.
Jack: You could have hurt someone with that you manic! Jack yells, waving his fist at the Dauntless.
Another cannon ball whizzes past his head.
Jack: Right - that's it. Stop the ship!
Gibbs: Draws Jack a strange look. What?
Jack: You heard! STOP THE SHIP!!
Gibbs: O-kay…Drop the anchor! The crew all stop and look at him oddly. You heard me right - let's stop this ship!
This dismayed crew shake their heads and quickly get to work. Jack stands glaring at the Dauntless.
Elizabeth: Jack! What are you doing? We can out run them…
Jack: We could but I've had enough of this chasing us around the world until the rum runs out and I want to throw you over board, mutters to himself, although that's not the bad part.
Elizabeth: They'll kill us…
Jack: Well woop-tae-do!
Elizabeth: Gibbs - stop him.
Gibbs: I can't, once he's got somethin' in his mind there's no stopin' him.
Elizabeth: Growls and storms off.
Jack grins as the Pearl stops and the Dauntless slowly draws alongside them.
Norrington: What are you doing - you're supposed to be fleeing!
Jack: Not anymore! I am sick of you and your stupid fleet chasing us around the globe. I want you to stop or I'll… send Elizabeth over to you.
Elizabeth: Calls from the distance. WHAT?!
Norrington: Falls silent.
Jack: Well?
Norrington: I'm sorry but I can't.
Jack: Then let's get this over and done with. FIRE!
The Pearl's guns begin to shoot at the Dauntless.
Norrington: Prepare to board! We'll take them back to be hung!
The two ships fire at each other until the soldiers start to board the Pearl. Jack, Gibbs and Marty hurry over to the Dauntless and begin to fight. Jack seeks out Norrington and the two sword fight until Norrington knocks Jack's sword out his hand.
Norrington: Well - well. Not so cocky now - are we?
Jack: Stop pointing that thing at me. You could take my eye out!
Norrington: Laughs as Will, Elizabeth and the rest of the Pearl's crew are brought aboard. Looks like you'll be joining for a hanging.
Jack: That's what you said last time and - here I stand…
Norrington: Lock him up!
Two soldiers grab Jack and drag him down to the cells. They toss him in with Gibbs, Marty and Mr Cotton. Elizabeth and Will sit scowling in the cage opposite.
Elizabeth: This is all your fault Jack!
Jack: Oh shut up. If it wasn't for your mouth your brain would function.
Elizabeth: Sits gob-smacked, her chin almost hitting the floor.
Gibbs: So what are we going to do Captain?
Jack: Don't worry. I have a plan.
Elizabeth: Oh goody, don't you think you've done enough damage already with your ideas?
Jack: Have you ever heard the concept of silence?
Elizabeth: Yes - very funny…
Jack: Wait - do you hear that.
Everyone falls silent.
Elizabeth: What?
Jack: It was the sound of you being quiet!
A/N: This is the second last chapter so I hope you enjoyed it! =D
