Chapter 21
Ruby's P.O.V
"Barbossa!" will yelled as he appeared on the rail of the pearl.
Barbossa dropped me and I landed on the deck choking and gasping for air. Jack ran to me and hugged me "I thought I was going to lose you" He whispered in my ear.
Will pointed the pistol at barbossa and said "Elizabeth goes free."
"What's in your head, boy" said barbossa "you've only got one shot and we can't die."
"Don't do anything stupid" jack mouthed to will.
"You can't." said will "I can."
"Who are you?" barbossa asked.
"No one!" said jack standing between barbossa and will. "Distant cousin of my aunt's friend. Eunice."
"My name's will turner" announced will "my father was bootstrap bill turner. His blood runs in my vains."
Jack and I shook our heads at will's foolishness.
"On my word, set her free" said will "or I'll pull this trigger and be lost to Davy Jones locker forever."
"Name your terms, Mr. Turner" said barbossa.
"Elizabeth goes free" will demand.
"Yes, we know that one" said barbossa "anything else?"
Jack pointed to me and himself.
"And the crew… the crew are not to be harmed" Will said.
Barbossa's eyes flashed "agreed."
And then out came the plank.
"Barbossa, you lying bastard, you swore she'd go free." cried will as they put Christie on the plank.
"But you never said when or where" barbossa smiled and looked at christie "it does seem a shame to lose something so fine, don't it boy's?
Christie gave him a look that could kill.
"I'll be needing that dress back now." Barbossa smiled.
Christie threw it in his face and dove into the water.
Then it was my turn as I got to the edge I yelled "go to hell all of ya!" and jumped.
Then jack jumped two minutes later. And we started swimming toward the island.
