I don't own Pirates of the Caribbean, Disney does blah blah blah ..

Chapter 17 - Examining Rocks!

We sailed to the cave in silence. This was most unusual for Jez and myself but a thought had just occurred to me. For the past week or so we had been trapped in a movie that could possibly end our lives and I miss my friends and family and have no way of knowing what is going through their minds right now.

The site of the Stinky Mafia did not help my current depressed state. Elizabeth rushed in ready for action but I stayed put. Now was my time to reflect on my wonderful yet strange life, as well as this rather odd last week.

I decided that since it was likely I was going to die and I was done reflecting I would take my last look at everyone.

I watched Jack fighting Barbossa at one end of the cave, his beaded hair flailing and hitting him in the face. It must be painful for him I mean I can scratch my face with a bobble just by walking down a street. But that was not the topic at hand. The impending doom was. He flashed his trademark smile, as he got the better of Barbossa, and his gold teeth shone. They're really shiny and pretty and shiny and shiny, AHEM!

I turned my attention to Will and Elizabeth fighting off three pirates. As I watched I noticed that they occasionally looked at each other lovingly. As much as I love romance and the whatnot I really don't think a fight is a good place for all the lovey-doveyness. But still it's sweet, but not like sugar.

I took this moment to thank god for letting me meet someone who looked like Orlando Bloom because I don't think I'm ever going to get the chance to meet him with me being stuck here in the Caribbean over 200 years before he is actually born.

It was now that Jez decided to make her move. She to had realised what on earth was going on and had taken the previous moments to reflect.

She decided to run straight into the battle after her reflections and see what happened but there was an obstacle in her path.

Me!

She ran straight into my back and sent me flying. I'm thinking of investing in a pair of wings for myself. They would come in very handy don't you think?

"Kait!!! What are you doing down there?" Jez said mockingly. Oh, how I love this girl.

"Well Jezzy, I decided that my new hobby is examining rocks, it's very interesting really it is!" I replied. In was so not in the mood to be messed around. God help any pirate that happens to cross me.

I looked up and came face to face with the aforementioned pirate. Well actually it was more like face to foot but still you get what I mean.

If you want good horror story, stick with me, if not run away now. This pirate was the most ugliest thing I have ever seen. He was tall, thin and his hair kind of looked like seaweed. He reached for his sword and I noticed that his fingernails were black and rather chewed. He pulled it out and flashed a toothless smile at me. It was enough to make me want to throw up.

Just as I thought I was dead, I heard a shot ring threw the air. The pirate and I turned to see what had happened buying me a couple of minutes to get free.

If I had thought of it, that is.

I remained where I was, partly through fear and partly because I'm just to plain thick to know when a good time to skid addle is.

Anyway, back to what the gunshot was. When I turned round I saw Elizabeth paused mid-step. Will stood by the medallions. Shiny AHEM! Jack was standing with his gun pointing at Barbossa who was smirking.

"Ten years you carry that pistol and now you waste your shot." Barbossa said.

"He didn't waste it," Will said dropping the final medallions into the chest.

Barbossa dropped his sword and looked at the blood seeping from his wound. It's definitely not a sight for the squeamish.

"I feel . . . cold," Barbossa managed to say before falling to floor an apple rolling from his hand.

I tuned back to face my pirate he was in pure shock. I took this as my chance and kicked him where the sun doesn't shine. He doubled over in pain and nearly landed on me if I hadn't rolled out of the way.

I got up and looked around, Elizabeth and Will were talking while Jack was collecting as much gold as he possibly could. Jez was jumping up and down thanking everything inanimate thing that she could see. I think she got an adrenaline rush from the whole thing. I didn't join in Jez's festivities.

"What's the matter Kait?" She asked genuinely concerned for once.

"I'm ready to go home now," I said waiting for the never-ending moan.

It never came.

"Yeah, so am I. We can write this up for a story of fanfiction.net and tell our tale without being sent to a loony bin," She said smiling and also without a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

I burst out laughing and followed the rest out of the cave back to the Dauntless.

"Oh, can we just stay for the end of the movie though?" She asked.

As much as I wanted to go home it wouldn't be to bad to stay a little longer besides I never did get to see it in the cinema.

"Sure why not."

I have a feeling you'll all be wondering we the sudden change in writing styles? Well, I got a couple of reviews criticising the way I write, especially about Jez and Kait's personality. I decided to give what they said a try and Ta daa!!! Let me know what you think.

Also, sorry about the shortness and the wait. And the jury is still out on the idea about a sequel so don't despair just yet folks.
