Though it was very early in the morning, Jack was well on his way to
getting completely

pissed. Most of the drunks passed out in the tavern were beginning to come
around, and made it a point to glare daggers at his jolly singing form. Jack lifted his cup to his mouth, took a long swig, gulped it down. Jack was worried about Will he never seen him like this, he was weak and fading fast. Jack knew Elizabeth would return safely and he told Will not to worry for Captain Jack Sparrow is here. Jack failed to mention to Will that when they did find Elizabeth she would be the same, he knew what was happening
to her but that would just crush Will if he knew.

Just then, he caught a bit of a conversation between two men coming out of the cabin. "Poor lass," said the first. "Aye, she was a might pretty one too". The second chimed in. Jack pulled himself up, and hurried after the
two men, trying not to stumble too much along the way. "Excuse me, gentleman." They turned, "Did I hear," Jack continued trying his best to control the slur. "Talk of Elizabeth"?" Yes, friend," the first gentleman started, ". "She's been kidnapped, supposedly by the fiercest of pirates, Captain Barlow Roberts." Jack's eyes flinched as though someone had smacked
him. Jack shook his head. "That's impossible Barbossa has her" The two gentlemen laughed. "Captain Barlow set that up to get Elizabeth, the only who didn't know was Barbossa and of course Elizabeth." Jack nodded "Right."
He leaned back, "Such a fine young lady, hard tellin' what a man like Captain Barlow do to her. I've heard stories." He lowered his voice a tad
and motioned for Jack and the other gentleman to lean in, "He's been searching for a woman to share his life with: a wife. Word is, he's gone
through six women, and seven is the most unlucky number a person can
be." "Obviously one through six weren't too lucky either, mate." Jack
responded before he could stop himself.

The gentlemen to Jack's left straightened up. "We should tell Will." Jack
then stood in his way. "Not a very good idea mate." "Why is that?" The
gentlemen asked. "Because if you tell Will I will have to kill ye." The gentlemen laughed. "Yeah. I'd like to see you try'.' Jack then pulled out
his gun. "I'll do more than try matey."
The gentlemen nodded. "Alright. Fine. I won't tell him." Jack nodded.
"Savvy." Jack then walked to the edge of the boat to look out to the
horizon.

Will was in his cabin wide-awake. He hadn't closed his eyes to even rest
his eyes. How could he sleep when the love of his life was out there,
somewhere? Hurt. He felt full responsibility for it. He wished he could show her the world that is safe, but now she is in a world that she doesn't
know.

Jack then walked into the cabin, Will looked up, wishing there was news, but deep down he knew there wasn't any. Jack smiled. "We're making a stop,
just to recuperate, have a few drinks, and you know just some. Relief." Will shook his head. "I'll have relief when Elizabeth is in my arms again."
Jack nodded. "Which she will be." "Where are stopping?" Will asked in a hurry. "Singapore." Will nodded. "I need a drink." Jack smiled. "Then why
didn't you say something?" Will looked over at Jack.
