Disclaimer : I don't own a thing. So, Disney, if you're reading this. Don't sue, please. I'm a broke teenager - and I don't work - so I'm REALLY broke.
I'm writing this chapter with no Internet access. This is what happens when you have a dial-up modem and no cable modem. Wahoo, eh? Darn me for livin' out in the middle of no wheres. I want city, dang it!
So, anyway, I can't see how I'm doing or if any of the readers read the last chapter. Fwahaha (does it work for me? i saw it somewhere...) *cough* anyway.
STORY TIME!!

Chapter 16 - Amare Sotto ... il Tramonto
______
"Will, s'all right." The voice of the captain rang in Will's ears. "It's me."
"Oh." There was silence as nobody moved. "If you would be so kind as to please move, still?"
Jack looked down and stood up hurriedly. He brushed himself off and sighed. "Sorry ter run into you. Gettin' chased by some maniacal guard with a whip."
"Really?" Will used a wall for support and leaned on it.
"That silver monster is still chasing us!" Elizabeth's voice was high-pitched and it made Cat wince.
"We seem to be doing just fine now. I see no sign of either - " Cat was interrupted by a noise.
*Pfft*
Cat and Jack looked at each other in fear. They began to inch away from the way they came.
"What was that?" Will said, his voice now seeming as if it was echoing in the great temple.
"Shh! Ye blasted eunuch!" Jack put his hand over Will's mouth and began to pull him away from the sound.
*Pfft*
*Balump*
Elizabeth's eyes opened wide. She inhaled deeply and looked behind her. The silver beast was at the end of the hall, and Elizabeth was running before anybody else.
The silver monster was faster than they were and before they knew it they were trapped. They had reached another dead end and the sound of the guard's whip could be heard behind the mass of silver.
*Pfft*
"It was nice knowin' all o' you." Jack shook his head and gave Elizabeth, who happened to be the closest, a huge hug.
"Ugh! Get off! Have you been drinking, Captain Sparrow?" Elizabeth shoved him off, trying not to think about how close death actually was.
"I know how ye stand on that subject, luv. Why would I go an' do such a thing? Besides - ain't no where's ter be gettin' any rum on this bloody island." Jack went to hug Will, and Will pushed him too.
"Jack! This is no time to panic!" That was when Will saw the guard for the first time. He gulped and his life flashed before his eyes.
Elizabeth, Elizabeth, Elizabeth... Jack?... Elizabeth.
"Who took that last turn?" Catharine ducked underneath Jack's opened "hug" arms.
"Me." Elizabeth said as she watched the whip melt the wall beside the guard.
"Idiot! Could you not see that there was a dead end this way!?"
"Now, now, luv. She's just a woman." Jack piped in, still trying to give Cat a hug.
"What!?" Elizabeth put her hands on her hip. "I am a better woman than you are!"
Cat rubbed her temples. "Well, I should hope you're a better woman than Jack is."
"Ye mangy, ugly-lookin' things! I am Captain Jack Sp... Spa... Spur... Sparkle... no..." Jack had gone right up to the monster and the guard and had started a conversation.
"Sparrow! Come back!" Will said.
"Yes! Sparrow! Wait, are ye sure that's right?" Jack's eyes brightened up.
"Yes!" Will said.
Jack looked at the three of his companions and then whirled to look at the guard and the monster. He gave a half grin to the guard and then a cheeky smile to the beast, then continued on with his conversation with Will.
"Right! Sparrow!" Jack nodded.
"Captain." Cat corrected.
"Yes?"
"No - Captain Sparrow. Your name." Elizabeth patted Jack on the shoulder.
"Oh, yes. Captain. Title there." Jack smiled at Elizabeth.
"Right." Will said.
"I know." Jack went to give Will another hug.
"What?" Cat asked, watching the scene in interest, but still keeping her eye on the monster and guard.
"That me name is Captain Jack -"
"Sparrow." Cat interrupted.
"Yes, quit interrupting." Jack sighed, but turned back to the monsters.
"Sorry." She apologized.
"Quite all right. Now, ye two mangy, ugly, an'... an'... hey, whoa!"
A huge gust of wind rushed through the hall, knocking down the guard and the silver beast. It swirled around them and picked up Jack, Will, Elizabeth, and Cat. It carried them back down the way they came and then the wind split as two separate tunnels came into view.
Elizabeth and Cat look at each other as they fly around curves and pass over more beasts. They reach for each other so that they won't get separated as well.
"Hold on!" Cat yelled.
"I am!" Elizabeth's hands were cold and clammy. Cat nearly let go from the sudden touch of freezing cold hands. They were almost jerked apart when without any warning the wind stopped. The two girls began to fall down a tunnel.
They both landed at the same time and just sat there, waiting for the dizziness to stop swirling the room that they were in.
"I don't feel well." Elizabeth moaned as she collapsed onto her back.
Cat closed her eyes so that she wouldn't resort to unconsciousness. When she opened her eyes she looked around and noticed she was in a circular room. Looking down, her eyes had to adjust to the brightness. The mound that she was sitting on was one of the smaller mounds of treasure.
"Elizabeth... I think we found the treasure of the Isle." Cat whispered as she ran her hands through the coins and jewels. She picked up a gold-encrusted tiara close to her and saw an inscription on the back of the diamond centerpiece.
'Amare Sotto'
"Italian?" Cat said as she put on the tiara. "Amare Sotto." She leaned back onto the mound of treasure.
*Beautiful language. Wish I knew what it meant.* Cat thought. She heard Elizabeth waking up, her gasp of delight and small clinks of metal.
"Il Tramonto." The voice of Elizabeth bounced off the walls, and the room began to spin.
Cat's eyes grew bigger as the walls began to spin faster and faster.

A/N : Amare Sotto il Tramonto. Isn't that purdy? Don't know what it means, but it's Italian. :) I'll give you a cookie if you know what it means. And don't just say something stupid like, "Jack is sexy." Because I know that's not what it says. LoL. You guys are crazy.
Anyway. R&R!!
Well, things are about to get good. Like we are going to know whose treasure this is, where Will and Jack went, if Blackbeard really left the Isle. All kinds of fun stuff. And believe me, many more chapters on the way. Just b/c the Isle of Spirit stuff is almost over doesn't mean the story is almost over too. A lot more to come.
