A/N: as per Chapter 1. Some spoilers for PotC:DMC.

I neither own nor make any money from Pirates of the Caribbean. (Flannelette:you can dance, you can jive; having the time of your life.)

Any mistakes are my own.


The Adventures of Flannelette the Pirate Maiden:20


Several plot holes are disposed of...

They are stuck,

It would appear,

Between a hard place

And a rock;

A deadly plummet downwards

Or the islanders next meal.

Luckily on board they have

An expert mountaineer;

Ex-Sherpa Flannelette

Can put an end to this ordeal.


She quickly teaches

All the crew

To abseil

Up the cliff;

With calmness and precision,

She directs their steady rise.

The "expendables" drop past them,

Screaming loudly as they fall.

(If you've read the previous chapter,

This will come as no surprise.)


Meanwhile, Liz

And Liz's dad

Attempt

A prison break.

Another hapless extra dies

While trying hard to save her.

And soon she's in the presence

Of Lord Beckett once again.

(If she squeezed her pistol trigger,

It would do the World a favour.)


To summarize:

While Flannelette

And Will

Ascend a cliff;

Poor Liz encounters someone who is

Small and mean and petty;

And dog-with-key has checked his lines

And reappraised his role,

And somehow is now on a boat

With Pintel and Ragetti.


Norrington remains,

It seems, unwashed,

Unkempt,

Unshaved.

(The details aren't precise

As he is on a secret mission.)

Jack Sparrow's on the menu

Of the Islanders next feast.

It isn't clear who's in

The most precarious position.


to be continued...

Did anyone notice that Pintel, Ragetti and dog-with-key were accidentally in completely the wrong places?

Can you actually abseil upwards, or only downwards?
