They had left port after stocking up on things they might need. The sailing had been smooth until the storm came upon them. Water was everywhere. The crew was trying to get things tied down. A wave hit the deck almost washing several overboard. Buffy gripped onto the rope and grabbed the dark haired pirate from earlier as he nearly went over.

"Thanks." He helped her up and together they moved to tie the rope. "Everyone calls me One-Eye Harris."

"Buffy. Nice to meet you. Come on, let's help the others."

Not too far from them were Gibb and Will. They were trying to tie a rope.

"How can we sail to an island that nobody can find with a compass that doesn't work?"

"Aye, the compass doesn't point North, but we're not trying to find North, are we?"

Gibbs said before making his way to the helm where Jack was at. Both men were thoroughly soaked.

"We should drop canvas, sir."

"She can hold a bit longer."

"What's in your head that's put you in such a fine mood Captain?" Gibbs asked.

"We're catching up." Jack replied with a look in his eye.

The ship came upon a graveyard of ships that didn't make it. The majority of the crew was staring at the wrecks. The parrot spoke.

"Dead men tell no tales."

"Puts a chill in the bones how many honest sailors have been claimed by this passage." Gibbs told Will and Buffy. Sparrow looked at his compass.

"How is it Sparrow came by that compass?" Buffy asked as she and Will followed Gibbs.

"Not a lot's known about Jack Sparrow fore he showed up in Tortuga with a mind to go after the treasure of the Isla de Muerta. That was before I'd met him. Back when he was Captain of the Black Pearl."

"What?" Will asked. Gibbs realized he had let something slip. "He failed to mention that."

"He plays things closer to the vest now. And a hard-learned lesson it was. Three days out, the first mate comes to him and says everything's an equal share. That should mean the location of the treasure too. Jack gives up the bearings. That night, there was a mutiny. They marooned Jack on an island and left him to die, but not before he'd gone mad with the heat." There was a long pause.

"So that's the reason for all the…" Will makes a movement that Buffy had to chuckle at.

"Reason's got nothing to do with it."

Buffy had stopped listening to the conversation and looked toward Jack. She felt the need to talk to him.

"Captain Sparrow, think you can spare a few minutes to talk?"

"Anything for you luv."

Jack motioned for Anamaria to take the wheel. He knew whatever Buffy wanted to talk about was serious for she called him Captain. "What did ya want talk about luv?"

"Let's go below first." The two of them went below to Sparrow quarters.

"What's on your mind?"

"I need to ask a favor of you Jack. You and I both know that there is only one way this is going to end is with blood, and will not be the blood of my brother. When the time comes, I'm going to need you to keep Will quiet. Knock him out if you have to, just don't let Barbossa know that he's the son of William Turner. Promise me. Please."

Jack took her hands in his and gave them a squeeze. Her eyes met his and she knew that he would do it.

"I promise luv that I will do everything in my power to keep young Turner safe."

Jack released one of her hands to move a stray hair out of her face, and then brought the other hand to his lips. He kissed it gently.

"I promise luv."

"Thank you Jack."

"We best get back up there before young Turner thinks I'm stealing your virtue."

"I'm more than a match for you Captain Sparrow."

Buffy said as they walked toward the deck. As soon as Jack stepped on deck, he knew they were there.

"Drop anchor!"

"Aye Captain."

"Young Mr. Turner and I are to go ashore." Jack told them.

"I'm coming too." Buffy told them.

"No luv, I think it would be best if you stayed here. No since in giving them what they want now." Buffy nodded and moved toward Will.

"Be careful, don't do anything foolish."

"I'll be careful Buffy."

"Captain, what if the worst should happen?" Gibbs asked.

"Keep to the Code."

"Aye, the Code."

Jack and Will set out in a rowboat. Jack was rowing while Will held the lantern so they could see.

"What Code is Gibbs to keep to if the worst should happen?" Will asked.

"Pirate's Code. Any man that falls behind is left behind."

"No heroes amongst thieves."

"For having such a bleak outlook on pirates, you're well on your way to becoming one. Sprung a man from jail, commandeered a ship of the fleet, sailed with a buccaneer crew out of Tortuga, and you're completely obsessed with treasure." The boat ran a ground.

They both got out quickly.

"That's not true. I am not obsessed with treasure."

"Not all treasure is silver and gold mate." Jack said as they continued to move. "Take your sister for example. She is a very rare treasure indeed."

"Gentlemen, the time has come!" They heard Captain Barbossa speak.

They both move a little closer to get a better view. Will sees Elizabeth standing beside Barbossa looking relatively unharmed.

"Elizabeth." He says softly. They continued to watch. Will finding out a lot about what was going on. "Jack! We need stop them."

Will went to move when Barbossa pointed at Elizabeth.

"Not yet. We wait for the opportune moment." Jack said pulling him down knocking some gold down.

"When's that?" Will asked. "When it's of greatest profit to you?"

"May I ask you something? Have I ever given you reason not to trust me? Do us a favor. I know it's difficult for you, but please stay here and try not to do anything stupid that will get your sister mad at both of us. You know how her temper is."

Jack turned and began sneaking around behind the pirates. Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned just in time to see an oar coming at him.

"Sorry, Jack. I'm not gonna be your leverage."

Will said dropping the oar and leaving Jack unconscious on the ground. He made his move sneaking around the pirates who were all waiting to see if the curse had been reversed. Will popped his head out of the water and quickly moved toward where Elizabeth laid after Barbossa smacked her. He placed a hand over her mouth and she out a small shriek opening her eyes immediately. She saw Will with his hand to his moth motioning for her to be quiet. When she understood, he took his hand away and motioned for her to follow him. She grabs the coin and the two them left the way Will had come. They moved faster as they heard the pirates coming.

Buffy paced the ship nervously. She was seconds away from taking a boat to go after them.

"They're coming!" Buffy heard one of them shout.

Buffy ran to where the man was pointing. She could see the boat coming. As it got closer, Buffy realized that Jack was not with them. The boat soon pulled up to the ship and Will helped Elizabeth to stand. Elizabeth was soon climbing to the top. When her feet reached the deck, she looked up.

"Not more pirates."

"It's okay Elizabeth. They are with us."

Buffy said as she approached Elizabeth. Elizabeth immediately moved to hug her best friend.

"Buffy! You're all right. I was so worried that they had hurt you."

"I'm fine."

"Welcome aboard, Miss Elizabeth." Gibbs spoke as Will climbed onboard. Buffy went over to hug him and see if he was all right.

"Mr. Gibbs?" Elizabeth asked.

"Hey, boy, where be Jack?

"Jack?" Elizabeth asked. "Jack Sparrow."

"Where is he Will?" Buffy asked looking him in the eyes.

"He fell behind."

"No." Buffy felt her heart clench.

"Keep to the Code."

"Weigh anchor and get this ship moving. Hoist the sails! We need to get as much of a head start as possible." Buffy said taking charge.

She watched as Will escorted Elizabeth below. She followed them. Will had taken Elizabeth to one of the more private rooms. Elizabeth and Will were sitting and Buffy stood behind her brother.

"What sort of man trades a man's life for a ship?" Elizabeth asked as she tried to bandage her hand.

"Pirate. Here, let me." Will said taking her hand gently.

"Thank you."

"You said you gave Barbossa our name as yours. Why?"

"I don't know." Elizabeth gasp as Will touched the sore spot.

"I'm sorry. Blacksmith's hands. I know they're rough."

"No. I mean yes, they are, but…"

Will took more care and finished tying the bandage. Buffy knew she was intruding on a private moment. The two had forgotten she was there. Will moved his hand as Elizabeth moved closer. Soon Will's hand came upon the medallion. Now Buffy's interest had returned as she looked at the coin. She swore silently.

"It's yours." Will stared at it. Buffy placed a hand on his shoulder, and he turned his head to look up at her. "I thought we'd lost it the day they rescued us. It was a gift from my father. He sent Buffy half his ring and me this."

"Why did you take it?" Buffy asked her.

"Because I was afraid that you both were pirates. That would have been awful." Elizabeth responded it.

"It wasn't your blood they needed. It was our father's blood." Will said.

"Our blood." Buffy said upon seeing him clench the coin in his fist.

"Will, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me." Will slaps the hand holding the medallion on the desk.

"Leave now Elizabeth." Buffy told her. "Go topside. I understand why you did it, but your decision was not a wise one."

Elizabeth hesitated before realizing Buffy needed to talk to Will. Buffy hugged her brother tightly and he returned it.

"This is something we can't go back and change, but we can sure as hell make a run for it. We'll get through this Will."

"Like we always do."

"That's right Little Brother." Buffy smirked. She was only older than he was by five minutes. "We can't help what's in our blood, but that doesn't mean we let it control who we are. You are a good man Will Turner with an even bigger heart. That is who you really are, and remember no matter what happens always remember that I love you."

"I love you too."

"I'm going to go see what's going on topside. Take all the time you need. I'll just take this with me." Buffy said taking the medallion from the table.
