Chapter 10: Marooned
The entire buccaneer crew was forced up against the mast of the Black Pearl, Pintel and Ragetti tying rope around them. Natalie stood with them and looked over at Jack, who was standing with his former crew. "If any of you as much as thinks the word parley, I'll have your guts for garters," Pintel said, continuing around them. Barbossa stood staring at the Interceptor, fiddling with the Aztec Gold. Elizabeth ducked out from under the rope, but the navy ship blew up in a tremendous display of fire and black smoke. "Will." Elizabeth said under her breath before running and screaming at Barbossa, "You've got to stop it!"
"Welcome back, Miss," he began, grabbing her wrists, "Ye took advantage of our hospitality last time. It holds fair now ye return the favor." He pushed her into his crew, who began touching her entire body. She shrieked loudly until a voice broke the silence, "BARBOSSA!" Everyone's heads turned to the other side of the ship to see a man standing on the rail. "Will," Elizabeth whispered.
"She goes free!" Will shouted, pointing a pistol at Barbossa.
"What's in your head, boy?" Barbossa asked walking toward him.
"She goes free!"
"You've only got one shot and we can't die." Will glanced over at Jack who clapped his hands together and whispered, "Don't do anything stupid." The young blacksmith stepped back up on the railing and pointed the gun at himself while saying, "You can't, I can."
"Just like that," Jack said quietly.
"Who are you?" Barbossa asked curiously.
"No one.he's no one," Jack interrupted, walking in front of Barbossa, "A distant cousin of my aunt's nephew twice removed. Lovely singing voice, though.eunuch."
"My name is Will Turner. My father was 'Bootstrap Bill' Turner. His blood runs in my veins." Barbossa looked down at Jack as he walked back to where he stood before, his head facing the ground. "He's a spitting image of ol' Bootstrap Bill come back to haunt us," Ragetti pointed out.
"On my word do as I say or I'll pull this trigger and be lost to Davy Jones' Locker," Will said forcefully.
"Name your terms, Mr. Turner," Barbossa said calmly.
"Elizabeth goes free!"
"Yes, we know that one. Anything else?" Will glanced over and Jack and saw him gesturing at himself. "And the crew," Will continued, "The crew are not to be harmed."
"Agreed," Barbossa replied evilly.
Moments later, Elizabeth stood on the plank, the crew was still tied up, Jack stood with a pirate, and Will was being held by many. Natalie was starting to panic. She had seen this movie so many times and it never bothered her before, but this was real. She stood between Pintel and Ragetti, who had their swords pointed at Elizabeth and motioned for her to jump. "Barbossa, you lying bastard! You swore she'd go free!" Will shouted.
"Don't dare impugn me honor, boy," Barbossa began as he looked at Will, who was being held by his throat and arms, "I agreed she'd go free it was you who failed to specify when or where." Jack looked over at Will and watched him get gagged and pulled farther back. "Though it does seem a shame to lose something so fine, don't it lads?" Barbossa asked.
"Aye," all the pirates stated.
"So I'll be having that dress back before ye go." Elizabeth immediately tugged at the hooks and pulled it off to reveal a white nightdress. She walked over to Barbossa and shoved it into his hands, "Goes with your black heart."
"Off you go.come on!" the pirates continued to say as Barbossa threw the dress back to them with a smile on his face. "Ooh, it's still warm," he said sarcastically. Natalie watched as Elizabeth looked back at Will before Bo'sun stepped on the plank, and she disappeared out of sight with a splash.
Jack was next.that was a fact that Natalie hated. She began to struggle toward Barbossa as Jack was brought up to the plank. "I really had rather hoped we were past all this." Barbossa placed an arm around him and said, "Jack.Jack! Did ya not notice? That be the same little island that we made you Governor of on our last little trip," as he gestured out toward the small island in the distance.
"I did notice."
"Perhaps you'll be able to conjure up another miraculous escape. But I doubt it," Barbossa replied as he unsheathed his sword and brandished it at Jack's throat, "Off you go."
"L-Last time you left me a pistol with one shot," Jack stuttered.
"By the powers, you're right. Were be Jack's pistol? Bring it forward," Barbossa said as he took Jack's effects from his crew.
"Seeing as there's two of us, a gentleman would give us a pair of pistols."
"WAIT!" Barbossa turned around and saw Natalie struggling to get to Jack, but being held back by force. She was running to him, but being pulled back with every step. "Let me go! Let me go!" she shouted. Jack looked over Barbossa's shoulder and saw her screaming. "Release her," Barbossa ordered.
"But, Captain-" Pintel began.
"Just do it!" Pintel and Ragetti let their hold go of the girl and watched her run to Jack. She threw her arms around his neck and buried her head in his dark hair. Jack was completely stunned, but tried to return her embrace. Unfortunately, his hands were tied. He looked at Barbossa and gave an innocent smile. He just crossed his arms and tapped his foot. "Natalie, what are you doing?" Jack whispered in her ear.
"I'm not letting you leave."
"Why?" Natalie froze. She realized what she felt.and it wasn't what she had hoped for. She was in the arms of Captain Jack Sparrow, and in love. No matter how hard she tried, she was falling hard and fast. "Alright, that's enough of that," Barbossa said as he grabbed Natalie and tried to pull her away. Before she could get pulled away, she stood on her toes and locked her lips with Jack's. Barbossa noticed and released her, his eyes bulging out of their sockets. Jack thoughtfully returned her kiss, reaching his tied hands up to her face and stroking her cheeks. When she pulled away, every pirate was staring. "What was that for?" Jack asked quietly.
"I couldn't resist, mate," Natalie whispered back.
"Did ye see that, mates?" Barbossa asked the crew.
"AYE!" they all shouted back.
"I think our Jack's gotten a tad softer since the last time we marooned him." Everyone began laughing except for Jack, his crew, and Will. Natalie glared at them and then stroked Jack's face, which was smoother than she would have expected. Barbossa turned Natalie around and handed her Jack's effects. "What are you doing?" Jack asked him.
"She's going with ye!"
"WHAT?" Jack shouted.
"As an honorable pirate, I believe it 'tis fair for lovers to die together," Barbossa replied as he pushed Natalie overboard and she hit the water with a splash. Jack looked down and saw her resurface. "What about the pair of pistols?" Jack asked as he turned back to Barbossa.
"It'll be one pistol as before, and you can be the gentlemen, and shoot Elizabeth. Then you and Natalie can starve to death yourselves." Jack dove gracefully into the water and swam as fast as he could to where Natalie was treading water. He raised his hands above the water and Natalie got the message. She took out his sword and cut the thick ropes. When he was finally free, he held onto his effects with one arm and swam with Natalie close to him.
They finally reached the shore of the small island, Elizabeth making it first. Jack took Natalie's hand and helped her ashore. All three of them looked at the Black Pearl as it sailed off into the distance. "That's the second time I've had to watch that man sail away with my ship," Jack said as Natalie gripped his hand in reassurance. While the two of them stared at the ship, Elizabeth began to walk along the shore.
