"Nice to see you again mate," Jack Sparrow said to me.
"Look I explained everything to you, will you, the bum, please ferry us to wherever we need to be to get out?" I asked him.
"I would only I don't know where that is," Jack said.
"Your compass you drunken bum," I said.
"That's right," Will Turner said walking up, "Jack give him the compass."
"Is finding a way home what you want most in the world?" Jack asked quizzically.
"Well, um…no, but it can be. Genie, I wish what I wanted most was to find the way home," I said.
At first the compass pointed towards the pocket where my wallet was, but the spun until it pointed towards the middle of the ocean.
"Let's set sail then," Jack Sparrow said, "There's only one rule mate."
"What's that?" I asked.
"I'm the captain, savvy?"
"Whatever," I said.

I walked over to the side of the boat as the sails were raised. I fished my cell out of my pocket and called my mom.
"Hello," she said.
"Hi, it's me you'll never guess where I am."
"Where?"
"The Black Pearl!"
"No way."
"Want to talk to Will Turner?"
"You mean Orlando Bloom?"
"No Will Turner."
"Why don't you tell the talking frog to sing?" Bailey said stumbling on deck.
"Well I don't care if the Pink elephants don't like him I want a rabbit," he said staring at the floor.
He took a swig of a bottle and I saw the word RUM printed on the bottle.
"Mom, I got to go, Bailey's drunk," I said.
"What?"
"Hold on Trista…."

"I have confidence in sunshine
I have confidence in rain
I have confidence that spring will come again
Besides what you see I have confidence in me!" Bailey sang skipping about.
"Bailey what are you drinking?" I asked.
"What… are you…dr…dri…drinking?" He stuttered.
"Nothing, the drinking age is like 16 or 17," I shouted.
"I am 16 going on 17
I know that I'm naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe…" Bailey sang stumbling around the ship.
"I am 16 going on 17 innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies
Drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone
Older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are 17 going on 18
I'll depend on you," he finished.
"You're a guy!" I shouted, "You face the world of women, you are stoned!"
"No you are," he said.
"Were are Ashley, Kole, and Clay?" I asked.
He pointed to a door that led below deck. I walked over to it and pulled it open. I could hear Jack Sparrow talking to Kole and Clay.
"What says you to becoming a member of the crew on the Pearl?"
"It would be just lovely," I heard Kole say.
"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
there they are standing in a row
big ones small ones some as big as your head
give 'em a twist
a flick of the wrist," Clay sang.
I sighed and turned back on deck.
"Elizabeth!" I shouted.
She came out from another door.
"Yes?"
"Jack's gone and got my little sister and cousins drunk," I said.
"Dear lord," she said grabbing my wrist, " Come on."
We walked over to the door where I could hear Ashley, Jack, Bailey Kole, and Clay singing, "It's a world of laughter, a world or tears
its a world of hopes, its a world of fear,
There is just one moon and one golden sun
And a smile means friendship to everyone,
Its a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world."
"Shut up!" I screamed.
"Genie, I wish they were sober," I said.
A large pitcher of water and cups appeared. They were still drunk. I looked at Genie questionably.
"What? I'm a genie not a miracle worker," he said.

The boys and Ashley were finally sober and Will was steering the ship because Jack was still drunk. I told him if there were water police he'd have a S.U.I (Sailing Under The Influence). The compass from time to time would spin in a different direction but go back to normal.
"Genie I wish for a Green Apple Sweet Tarts squeeze," I said.
Instantly one appeared in my hand. I picked up my cell and called my friend Morgan.
"Hello?"
"Hey Mo it's me Tristan!"
"Don't call me Mo. Where are you? I've been calling your Dad's since yesterday."
"I'm on the Black Pearl with Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann, and Jack Sparrow!"
"You mean Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightly, and Johnny Depp?"
"No, my cousins put in this defect Pooh movie and we got sucked into my TV into the world of Disney!"
"Nu-huh!"
"Oh yeah log into your email I'll send you a picture."
"Okay, Bye."
"Bye."
"Jack, Elizabeth, Will get over here! Genie drive the ship! Bailey take a picture with my cell! Smiles!"

"Hello?"
"OH MY GOD TRISTAN YOU WERE RIGHT!"
"Oh crap!"
"What Tristan?"
"Morgan I gotta go."
"Tristan, wait hold…"

"Oh no! Not Good!" Jack said pointing towards the dark cloud swirling towards the ship.
