Yugioh13: Had to PM otherwise it would have given some spoilers. (Meaning this response is not the full one I gave to Yugioh13) Coralie didn't see them kiss so she doesn't know. It was a good idea if I had made Coralie see but I left that out. I thought about it but decided it would be better if she hadn't seen that way she could be shocked to know that's how Jack died as well as the others
Coralie's POV
The next morning I was aboard one of the East India Trading Company's ships, the Endeavour. Mercer brought me to a cabin.
"Behave yourself." I glared at him. I had done nothing to get on his bad side. We went inside and there were a few officers moving ships on a table map, I noticed the Governor sitting at a desk, he looked up and looked shocked to see me. Mercer brought me over to another desk where Cutler Beckett was sitting. He had the chest on his desk. He smiled when he saw me. He turned his attention to Mercer who explained the most recent events and information he'd acquired.
"A piece of eight, nine of them you say?"
"Our new friend in Singapore was very specific sir, nine pieces of eight."
"What's the significance of that I wonder." He said holding one of the coins.
"Does it matter? There's nothing can hold against the armada, not with the Flying Dutchman at the lead."
"Nothing we know of. Did your friend happen to mention where the Brethren Court are meeting?"
"He was mum on that sir."
"Then he knows the value of information. Better keep this between ourselves, we don't want anyone running off to Singapore do we?" Mercer looked at Governor Swann as James entered. "Ah, Admiral."
"You summoned me Lord Beckett." He looked to me and his eyebrows went up. He was clean shaven and had a uniform on.
"Yes. Something for you there, your new station deserves an old friend." James walked over to a box on the table; his old sword was inside. An East India Officer handed some papers to Governor Swann.
"Not more requisition orders." He said.
"No Sir, execution." The East India Company Officer said. James unsheathed the sword.
"The Brethren know they face extinction, all that remains is for them to decide where they make their final stand." Beckett said. James and the Governor exchanged looks. "Coralie." I looked over.
"Yes?" I asked.
"I've missed you." He said with a smile. I saw him glance towards James. I looked over and saw him glaring at Beckett. He noticed me looking and looked at me with a soft smile. "Coralie." I could hear the frown in his voice. I turned to look back at him. "I would like to speak with you in privet later."
"I am afraid I cannot stay." He frowned more.
"And why not?"
"I must catch up with.. Elizabeth."
"How is she?" The Governor spoke up. I turned to face him. "Is she doing well?"
"Yes." I said with a small smile. He smiled back.
"Well, I guess you'd best be on your way." Beckett said. I turned to leave. "Coralie." I turned around.
"Yes?" He motioned me over. I rolled my eyes and walked over then leaned down to peck him on the cheek. I stood up and he smirked glancing at James. I turned around and walked out of the cabin. I walked down a small hall when suddenly someone grabbed my arm and spun me around. I looked up to see James who proceeded to lean down and kiss me. I inhaled sharply and wrapped my arms around his neck while his went around my waist.
"I've missed you." He said against my lips.
"I have missed you as well." He pulled away smiling. "You got your life back." I said with a smile.
"My life's not much without you in it." He said. I felt myself blush. "Coralie.. Marry me." My face became twice as hot.
"W-what?"
"Marry me." He repeated.
"But I am still engaged to Cutler." He frowned at my use of his first name.
"I know. I asked him to withdraw his proposal but he wouldn't." It was my turn to frown.
"Why would he not?" James shrugged.
"Probably just trying to... mess with me, or..." He trailed off. "I'm sorry, I'm keeping you. You should get going." He took his arms from around me and took a step back.
"My answer would be yes." I said. He suddenly grinned.
"You don't know how happy I am to hear you say that." He said before leaning down to kiss me again. "Now go." I smiled and nodded.
I swam for hours when suddenly the water was extremely cold but I could see the ship. I swam a bit faster, eager to escape the cold water.
"Yeah, I knew there was a good reason." I heard Ragetti say as I came out of the water.
"R-Ragetti!" He suddenly looked over to side.
"Coralie!" He helped me up and I sat on the side of the ship and waited for my tail to melt. Once it did I climbed over and sat next to Ragetti. "I've been meaning to ask. If you're a mermaid how do you still have normal female parts."
"You would know this how?" I asked narrowing my eyes. He coughed and changed the subject.
"You're going to catch your death. You're all wet." I could only nod as I rang out my hair. He pulled me close to him and Jack the monkey came and got between us for warmth. I could see Will was at a table looking over the charts. Elizabeth saw me and hurried over with her blanket and hugged me, wrapping the blanket around herself and me.
"Coralie! Where have you been?"
"Missed the ship. Had to swim. Could not catch up until now." I said shivering. Suddenly Gibbs started talking about a green flash.
"I reckon I've seen my fair share. Happens on rare occasion, at the last glimpse of sunset a green flash shoots up into the sky. Some go their whole lives without ever seeing it, some claim to have seen it who ain't and some say…"
"It signals when a soul comes back to this world, from the dead!" Pintel said. Gibbs glared at him.
"Sorry."
"Trust me young Master Turner, it's not getting to the land of the dead that's the problem, it's getting back." Barbossa said.
"Don't they get it? It's a riddle." Ragetti said. "Riddles are fun. 'Over the edge, over again—"
"Riddles are not fun!"
"The way it always goes is some poor bloke ends up dead, but just beforehand he realizes, 'No, I wasn't supposed to listen to the sirens, I wasn't supposed to take the pot o' gold,' but by then it's too late and he dies in a horrible and of times ironical manner, and in this case...you and I be the poor bloke." Pintel said walking off.
"...I like riddles." Ragetti said as we sailed into a crevice in the ice.
By nightfall we were away from the cold. I notice Will and Lizzie talking but then Lizzie walked away. I frowned. The two hadn't talked much since Jack and the Pearl were lost. I turned back to eat my noodles one of the Chinese pirates had made. Suddenly Will ran past.
"Barbossa, ahead!"
"Aye, we're good and lost now."
"Lost?" Elizabeth asked.
"For certain you have to be lost to find a place as can't be found, elseways everyone would know where t'was." Barbossa said.
"We're gaining speed!" Gibbs said and I looked to see us heading for some kind of giant waterfall.
"Aye."
"To stations." Will shouted. "All hands to stations! Run a full, hard to port, gather way."
"Nay, belay that!" Barbossa shouted. "Let her run straight and true!" Pintel, Ragetti, Marty, Lizzie, Gibbs and me ran to the front of the ship to look.
"Blimey!" Ragetti said when he saw the waterfall.
"You've doomed us all." Elizabeth said.
"That is the point." I said staring ahead at the waterfall.
"Don't be so unkind, you may not survive to pass this way again and these be the last friendly words you'll hear."
"Tie her off!" Will shouted.
"Hard to port!" Elizabeth shouted.
"Hold on!" Will yelled. Ragetti grabbed my arms and turned me to him. My eyes widened as he kissed me as the ship turned, but too late, and was pulled over the edge; Barbossa laughed as everyone else screamed.
Well tell me what you all think ^-^ Ragetti kissed Coralie~ lol
