Author's Note: I'm so incredibly sorry for the extremely long wait. Here's the next chapter! I'm planning on doing the fourth movie after this, but it'll take me some time to figure out how to place Gin in the storyline, however, I do already have a plan and idea formulated.

Thank you to everyone who still remembers this story and who has reviewed and been unbelievably patient!

Enjoy!

Gibbs nodded and said, "Go, quickly!"

I gripped tightly and swung swiftly over to the other side.

Landing firmly on my feet and panting, I see the key falling down right in front of me, with a cut off tentacle gripping to it.

Bewildered, I pick it up, tossing the tentacle to the side, and clutch the key tightly in my hand.

I look up, and spot Jack and Jones up on a high mast, clanging their swords away, with Jack holding onto the chest. Suddenly the ship shuddered with a blow, throwing everyone off as I noticed, the high top masts crashed together.

I take the pistol that was strapped to my thigh under my dress and started shooting at a nearby fishface. I then also spot Will running around. Calling out to him, "Will! Will! I got the key!"

He joins me briefly, nodding, "Good, hold on to it while I hold onto the chest!"

As he runs off, a dark cackle of laughter comes up behind me, "Jack's girly. You got me a key, hm?"

I turn around slowly, fear pounding in my chest, keeping the key gripped tightly. Jones strikes me across the face, as I topple over to the floor.

Gasping and stuffing the key into the front of my bodice, I draw my sword to defend myself as he tries to thrust his sword into my chest.

Shrieking, I shove him away with all my might and shakily stand back up, spiting out to him, "Is that it?"

Glaring, he lunges forward. I block him and continue dodging his attempts.

Suddenly Jack lands between us, shocked to see me. Then he realizes the situation, and smirks, "Forget her, and focus on me, slimy git!"

Jack reaches into the front of his jacket and pulls out a stub of a sword.

Jones chuckles and grins venomously, "Is that how you intend to protect your stupid lass?"

I was about to lunge for him before Jack pushes me away from the two of them, and starts to run from Jones, leading him in another direction for a chase.

I chase after the both of them, refusing to give up. I stab Jones from behind, as he cries out, "Oh, you're quite the annoying little whore, aren't you?"

I angrily rip out my sword and he turns around to focus on me.

Grinning broadly at him, "No, I just got bigger boons than you."

He slashes at my arm, leaving a deep long gash. I cry out, and Jack steps back in between us, "Gin!", hitting Jones with a heavy piece of wood squarely in the face.

He shoves Jack away, where he didn't get up.

"Jack!"

I froze.

Jones starts making his way towards me, an evil look in his eyes, but not before Elizabeth swoops in, "Back away from my sister!"

Jones whips to her, "Harridan! You two will not see mercy from me!"

She ensues a fight with Jones, while I rush over to Jack, where he was already slowly rising. He grabs the back of my neck, bringing us close together, "Where's the key?"

I reach down my front and produce it before his eyes. He grins at me, "Now that's my girl."

We both rise up, Jack running off to find the chest and I notice Elizabeth is thrown away at the staircase.

"Elizabeth!" I cry out.

As Jones approaches her, about to kill her, Will joins us and stabs Jones from behind him to stop him.

As Jones remains unphased, he jokes, "Missed! Did you forget? I'm a heartless wrench!" And he bends the sword so that Will cannot draw it back out.

Will tries a couple time, but Jones just laughs and kicks him away.

Elizabeth finally comes to and stares at Will while he looks back at her.

Jones looks between the two of them, figuring it out slowly, "Ahhh, love! A dreadful bond and yet so easily severed!"

He comes up to Will, pointing his sword at him and threatens, "Tell me William Turner, do you fear death?"

"Do you?!"

Jack is back, with the heart in his hand, pointing the stub of a sword at it, standing slightly in front of me, trying to protect me.

"Heavy tonic, holding life and death in the palm of one's hands."

"You're a cruel man, Jack Sparrow!" Jones spat out at him.

"Cruel is a matter of perspective," I retort, holding Jack's wrist tightly.

"Is it?" Jones asks, then suddenly turns around and dives his sword deep into William's heart. After finally releasing the sword, Jones laughs mockingly as he faces Jack and I again.

Elizabeth slowly crawls over to William and desperately cries out, "Will… Look at me! Stay with me! You're alright!"

Suddenly, Bootstrap attacks Jones, "William! My son!"

The two start to fight and Jack is frozen, unsure what to do with the heart. Gasping out a sob, I grab the heart and stub of sword from Jack and rush over to where William is slowly dying.

"Will! Look at me! Look at me!" Elizabeth repeats as I take Will's limp hand, curling his fingers around the sword.

"You will not forestall my judgement!" Jones cries out to Bootstrap, towering over him.

Jack appears by my side, and takes Will's hand with the sword in it and stabs it into the heart. We all look at Jones as a look of shock passes over his face, as he realizes what we did.

He turns to the sky one last time, whispering, "Calypso," before falling overboard and into the dark abyss.

As I mentioned, I AM planning on continuing the story and working on the fourth. I just need some ideas as to how I would fit Gin into the movie plot line. Are you guys even interested in reading a fourth? Let me know!

Again, I'm so sorry for the extremely late update!
