PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!


Buffy kept an alert eye, holding the lantern, as Jack rowed the boat into the cave and toward shore. She made sure to keep very still not wanting to make any noise that might alert them to their presence. The light soon showed Buffy several dead pirate bones.

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

Jack said this as he turned to see Buffy looking at the gold in the water. The boat hit the shore and he was the first to get out. She helped Jack pull the boat more on the shore.

"No way! That's not true. I am not obsessed with treasure."

"Not all treasure is silver and gold lass." Jack said.

"When you put it that way then I guess I would have to agree." Buffy said thinking of Will as a very rare and special treasure.

Jack moved up the incline and Buffy followed. They both kept low not wanting to be seen by the undead pirates.

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

They both move a little closer to get a better view. Buffy sees Will standing beside Barbossa looking relatively unharmed. He was now wearing a white lacey shirt. Behind him, a pirate stood holding a gun to his back.

"Will." Buffy said softly. They listened to Barbossa rant a bit more

"For 10 years we've been tested and tried, and each man jack of you here has proved his mettle a hundred times over and a hundred times again." The crowd cheers.

"Suffered, I have!" Ragetti said.

"Punished, we were the lot of us. Disproportionate to our crime! Here it is!" Barbossa spoke kicking the top of the container that held the cursed gold. "The cursed treasure of the Cortes himself. Every last piece that went astray, we have returned. Save for this."

Barbossa pointed at Will and Buffy had heard enough.

"Jack!" Jack stopped her from charging over to save Will.

"Not yet. We wait for the opportune moment." Jack told her. He got up and began to walk in a different direction. Once again, Buffy followed.

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

Jack came to stand in front of her,

"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."

"No the stupid thing would be for me to let you use me as leverage."

Buffy said before hitting him hard. Jack fell to the ground unconscious. Buffy used her slayer powers to move quickly and quietly through the cavern. She came upon water that was deep enough for her to hide in. Following it she found that it led her close to where Will was. She could hear the conversation that was going on.

"You, boy! Your father, what was his name? Was your father Benjamin Summers?" Barbossa voiced boomed loud enough for Buffy to here.

"No." Will told him cheekily.

"Where's his child that sailed from England eight years ago?"

That was all Buffy could hear as she went deeper under water make sure she wasn't seen when passing by the pirates. When she came up for air she found Will lying at the bottom of the stack.


Buffy slowly came out and placed a hand over Will's mouth. He jumped slightly but calmed upon seeing the face in front of him. She motioned for him to follow her. He nodded and quickly grabbed the medallion coin. They moved back through water and back to where Buffy had left Jack. Will was about to speak when Buffy motioned for him to stay quiet. She quickly broke all the oars and grabbed Jack. Placing him in the boat, she and Will pushed the boat back into the water. Buffy took to manning the oars using her slayer speed to row fast. When they were half way to the ship, William finally asked.

"Jack? Jack Sparrow, what's he doing here?"

"Without him I wouldn't have been able to find you." Buffy told him what happened.

"What sort of man trades a woman's life for a ship?"

"Pirate. We're here. Go on aboard. I'll bring Jack up."

Will climb on board and instantly went on guard seeing more pirates standing before him.

"Not more pirates."

"Welcome aboard, Mr. Turner."

Gibbs said as he took a few steps forward. At that moment Buffy climbed aboard carrying Jack over her shoulder. She dropped him to the deck.

"Mr. Gibbs?" Will questioned.

"What happened to Jack?" Gibbs asked.

"He hit his head." On my fist, Buffy finished in her head. "He should be thankful I didn't leave him behind. Take care of him."

Buffy took Will by the arm and led him below.


Buffy had led Will to one of the smaller rooms. She had gotten him everything he would need for his cut. He was trying to bandage it on his own and was finding it hard to do. William had just finished telling Buffy his story.

"I've wanted to ask you; back there you were able to snap those oars like twigs. How? That is if you want to tell me."

"Here let me do that." She said taking his hand gentle. "I'm not like other women Will. There are thing out there worst than pirates, and I have been given the strength and skills to deal with them. Don't ask me how because I'm not sure myself. You said you gave Barbossa my name as yours. Why?" Buffy said looking into his eyes. Eyes are the windows to the soul.

"I don't know." Will said as she finished bandaging his hand. She began rubbing it softly.

"There."

"You have such a gentle touch Buffy. I didn't feel a thing."

"I've had lots of practice."

"Don't stop." It was like a magnet to metal as the two moved instantly closer together.

"William." Buffy whispered softly. Her hand went to the side of his face. Will took his hand and guided hers to his chest. Her hand came upon the medallion. Will pulled the medallion out and Buffy seemed too stare at it as if she recognized it.

"It's yours." He took it off and Buffy began to feel it.

"I thought I'd lost it the day they rescued me. It was a gift from my father. He sent it to me." Buffy finally looked up at him. "Why did you take it?"

"Because I was afraid that you were a pirate. That would have been more than I could bear."

Buffy thought about it for a minute.

"It wasn't your blood they needed. It was my father's blood. My blood." She clutched the coin to her hand and closed her eyes. "The blood of a pirate."

"Buffy, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me?" Will asked taking both her hands.

"Nothing to forgive. You were watching over me." Buffy said softly remembering what he had said eight years ago.

"Just as you have been watching over me." Will said. "Do you want to be alone?"

"No please stay." Will nods and just rubs her hand.
