Chapter 5
"You know," said Gaybrial as he and Jack re-boarded the Black Pearl, Jack as happy as he could get watching Will carry in a truck load of Rum "That stuff will be the end of your days" Jack laughed and slapped Gaybrial's shoulder.
"If you are anything like your father then I will watch you sink to Davie Jones' Locker before I do." Jack stopped a little frightened by the look on Gaybrial and Will's faces. Even he knew that Gaybrial was a hundred times more a better fighter then himself. Will too.
"You know Jack," Gaybrial bending closer over Jack who cowered away, "That is quite true." and he laughed. However Will did not.
"How can you say that about our father?" Will said slightly annoyed at his brother. Gaybrial looked at him.
"You would say that you are Daddy's little pirate. You know nothing." Gaybrial walked away trying to calm himself before he did something stupid.
"I am more of a pirate then you will ever be." This was a kick in the stomach for Gaybrial, he walked over drew his sword but it was stopped by Jack. Who shock his head.
"Jack move." Gaybrial said not taking his eyes off Will. Jack didn't even flinch. "I won't tell you again Jack move!" Jack shuffled but stood his ground. "Right, I get it, you protect him and I stand here as though my word means nothing. If that is the fact then I will be dropped off at Port Royal." At this Gaybrial walked away.
"What does he mean?" Will asked, "Dropped of at Port Royal?"
"This may not be a good time for Gaybrial to tell you, but I can." He sat on the edge of the boat and waited for Will. "Not long after you were born Gaybrial went to live with his uncle, after he realized he never wanted to be a pirate. He was raised in believing that he was the only one who could help himself. He needed to find his own way. He got married one day, without telling his uncle. Who, as you could imagine, was furious; they had two daughters. He never took them sailing or anything, until one day his oldest daughter pleaded to go on a boat so he took them round the Dunerai islands. Thinking he could make it back before a storm hit he started back. But got caught in it. Another boat collided with theirs and he was washed up on shore, he never found his family, not a single trace." Jack looked around for Gaybrial and didn't see him.
"Why didn't he tell me?" Will asked.
"Do you think he liked the fact that you were married with kids and he wasn't?" He stopped "It was your uncle in the other boat. Gaybrial never forgave him, the curse meant he couldn't kill him."
Will and Jack continued to talk. What he didn't know was that round the hull of the boat Gaybrial could hear them talking. He looked around the hull the pain of being on a boat suddenly coming back to him. He hated Will and he hated Jack. What right did they have to say how he was feeling? Port Royal was at least three days away, so he had to keep himself occupied until then.
"You know," said Gaybrial as he and Jack re-boarded the Black Pearl, Jack as happy as he could get watching Will carry in a truck load of Rum "That stuff will be the end of your days" Jack laughed and slapped Gaybrial's shoulder.
