As the Black Pearl and the Flier were only a short way off from Isla de
Muerta both ships dropped anchor. Jack and Will swung themselves over to
the Flier to double check plans. As Jack went over the details Will stood
with his arm around Elizabeth occasionally adding bits in. "So you'll
anchor the Flier out of sight and hide yourselves in the cave, I'll go and
show Meris the way. He'll hand Sarah over then, using the element of
surprise, you attack savvy?"
Captain Norrington was also listening to the plan. "And you're sure your plan will work?" He asked after Jack had finished. "Of course mate," Jack replied with a bit of a smile. "You'd better bring Sarah back safe and unharmed," Norrington told Jack. "Look mate, I've had more dealings with pirates than you've had birthdays, I know what I'm doing savvy?" Jack told him.
"Just bring her back safe," Norrington said before glancing towards Isla de Muerta. "Don't worry mate, I will defeat Captain Meris, protect the location of Isla de Muerta and furthermore, I will save your bonny lass," Jack told him before glancing up at the sun's position. "Will," He said and Will looked over at him. "We'd best be leaving now mate," He told his friend and Will nodded.
"We'll be back later tonight, be on your guard, and whatever you do - don't do anything stupid," Jack told the men on the Flier. "If Meris spots you he'll know I didn't come alone with my crew and that may put Sarah in danger and we don't want that savvy?" He said before preparing to swing back to the Black Pearl. "Will," Elizabeth caught her husband's arm as he started to follow Jack.
Will looked down at her as tears sparkled in her eyes. "Please be careful," She pleaded and he told her not to worry. "I know Jack's plan seems a little crazy but remember, as crazy as they may be they usually work better than you'd imagine they would," He reassured Elizabeth, hoping to comfort her. Leaning down, he kissed her before swinging back across to the Black Pearl with Jack.
Back aboard the Black Pearl Jack and Will watched as the Flier began to sail closer to Isla de Muerta before pulling up their anchor. "That young Norrington, it seems he really does love your daughter," Jack told Will as the anchor was lifted up. "Yes, it seems he does," He said as Jack took his place at the wheel and handed Will a telescope. "Keep a lookout for the Defiant won't you mate?"
As Will searched the horizon for any signs of sails his thoughts began to drift. Yes, it did seem as though Norrington loved Sarah. The Admiral's son reminded Will a little of himself - he was prepared to sail away to fight pirates for her, he was prepared to die for her. He wasn't a bad man, Will thought, though his father had influenced him as far as a distrust of pirates was concerned. "He'd better not do anything stupid," Will muttered to himself as he spotted the Defiant's sails.
