Chapter Seven: The Return of the Enemy
"OUCH!" Lissie yelled. Well, at least she yelled it, but she couldn't even hear herself. Something had slammed into her arm. She looked around, and saw Beth.
"Sorry!" she saw her mouth.
They were spinning through what appeared to be a time-twister… they saw everything that happened after the kisses at the end, and up until their "deaths".
A giant, gaping hole appeared. They were getting closer to it…
THUD.
They hit rocks with a painful sounding noise.
"OW!" Beth yelled out, grabbing her arm, which was bleeding. Lissie quickly put a hand over her mouth, and made her duck down.
Beth looked at Lissie, and saw that a cut near her eye was bleeding.
She looked around, immediately recognizing where they were. They were squatting where Jack and Will had been when they came to rescue Elizabeth.
Lissie removed her hand from Beth's mouth.
"Why are we back here?" Beth whispered.
"I don't know…" Lissie replied slowly.
The two of them silenced immediately however; they heard a voice.
"I think it came from over here!" said a voice they had heard before.
Twiggs.
"Find whoever it was, no one can see this!" came Bo'sun's voice.
Lissie had to fight off the urge to scream. Why were they here? Was Will okay? Would she ever see him again?
I miss Jack! Thought Beth. Is he coming back here as well?
The footsteps were getting closer… the girls held their breath…
"It's time!" said Pintel.
"Excellent," replied Bo'sun.
Beth and Lissie just looked at each other, then poked their heads above the rock so to see what was going on.
Barbossa's body was in the same place as it had been when Jack had killed him. But one thing was different. The medallions with Jack and Will's blood were covering his wound, and his body was surrounded with torches. All the pirates gathered around him and closed their eyes and put their heads to the sky.
They then began to chant in a language Beth and Lissie could not understand. Barbossa's body was lifted from the ground.
What was happening?
But they soon found out.
His body was moved as if he were standing. The chanting stopped. The girls gasped.
He was looking right at them…
He was alive.
"Get them," he said.
Lissie and Beth ducked down and ran for their lives. But no matter how many times Beth had forced Lissie to run with her, and no matter how many medals Beth had won for track, neither of them could out run a huge mob of pirates.
They were caught, and guns were pointed to their heads.
Barbossa walked over, laughing. Lissie frowned.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't the future wives of Jack Sparrow and Will Turner," he said mockingly.
Beth opened her mouth, but Barbossa cut her off.
"Yes, even when you pass over you know things. But why wasn't I invited to the weddings?"
"You're supposed to be dead!" yelled Lissie.
"Quiet now, or you'll regret over using your vocal chords," he said dangerously.
Lissie shut her mouth, reluctantly.
"Yes, I'm back, as you saw. But why, you ask?" he grinned and laughed. "You'll find out if the two Prince Charmings come to the rescue.
No! What do Jack and Will have to do with this? thought Beth.
"Take them to the ship," said Barbossa.
They were shoved roughly out of the cave.
Barbossa took a bite out of the apple and suddenly, it hit Beth.
She knew why Barbossa had come back from the dead, and by the shocked expression on Lissie's face, she knew too.
