Chapter 13. The Deepest circle of hell is for betrayers and mutineers

Day's past and still Alanna could not tell Jack. She had overheard from some of the crew that Jack had found a treasure map to an island where Cortez's treasure could be found. Alanna felt excitement in the pit of her stomach knowing that they were going to have some fun.

They stopped in a little town Port James where they had pillaged the area till nothing was left. When they were loading everything on to the Pearl Alanna dragged Bootstrap aside and began whispering quietly so no one would hear their conversation. "Bootstrap I still haven't told him. What am I going to do?" Bootstrap eyebrows flew under his bandana, "What Alanna!? Ye haven't told him that yer pregnant?"

"No and I'm scared to, I mean what if he doesn't want the child? What if he doesn't love me any more because soon I'll blow up to become a killer whale?", moaning of the thought of becoming the next Black Pearl. Bootstrap shoulder's started shaking with laughter feeling sorry for his friend.

"Ye mustn't worry, in the end everythin will be 'right", patting her on the shoulder. But Bootstrap and Alanna hadn't noticed that Barbossa was listening in on their conversation and began grinning from what he had overheard. Barbossa walked away and started forward to Jack, "Captain I was wonderin maybe we should 'ave a party for pillaging Port James

"Common darlin", as Jack was dragging Alanna up the steps to the deck where the entire crew would be there drinking their heart's out and talking nonsense. "Jack please I have to tell you something and it cannot wait", as she was pulling Jack in the other direction. "Ye can tell me afterwards but right now theirs a party with our name on it", as he pulled her so hard that they were out the front door.

But what stood before them would give Jack nightmares for most of his life and loose the one thing that mattered and it wasn't the Pearl really. Barbossa stood in front of the crew smiling with a pistol in hand. Bootstrap was being held by Pintel and Ragetti and they tied him up. 'Barbossa", as Jack stood in front of Alanna in a protective way, "What the fuck is goin on here?" "Well Jack you see mate me and the boys been thinking that you need to retire", as Barbossa pulled out a pistol waving it so they towards them to give up their weapons. Jack and Alanna pulled out their swords, pistols and anything else they had seeing as they were outnumbered. Barbossa pulled Alanna to his side and held her tightly in one arm, as his pistol was still on Jack.

"Let go of me you son of a bitch or I swear to god I fucking kill you!", screaming and kicking trying to get out of Barbossa's grasp but he was too strong as he held her like a rag doll. "Jack me and the crew decided it was time that you gave up being Captain so we decided a mutiny was in order", as they crew began shouting in excitement.

Jack glared at Barbossa hatred and anger wishing death upon him, "I had trusted you but you stab me in the back?" Barbossa slowly shook his head, "Well I think ye should 'ave been listenin to yer lovely wife here then". Alanna continued struggling.

"Now Alanna I can give ye a choice join me and I won't kill ye and we can share in the riches", as Barbossa caressed her arm trying to choux her. "Never I'll never join you, you disgusting pig!" Barbossa's eyes darkened. Jack starting running over knowing what was going to happen but he was pulled away by some of the crew. "Well that's a shame Alanna cause I really liked ya", pulling out a pistol.

"My gift to ye Jack is seeing yer wife die before yer eyes", as he fired a shot. To Jack time became slow and endless. He watched as she was shot in the stomach. He watched as she fell to the floor in a heap. He watched as she stared at him with her green eyes. He watched as he felt his heart break and his world darken. He was in another world but he could hear himself screaming in agony. He could feel the endless tears trailing down his eyes.

He could feel as he fought with all his might against his crew to grab her and hold her. He wanted nothing more then to die with her that very moment. Jack gave up as he fell to the floor sobbing, weakness taking over. He crawled over to her motionless body but before he could even touch her Barbossa had strutted over picked her body up and had threw her over the side of the ship. Jack continued sobbing harder as the a few crewmember's began tying his hands together. Barbossa grabbed Jack by the shoulder hugging him in a way.

"It's really a shame Jack, I mean she smelled like strawberries", that was the last straw. Jack had saw red. He jumped and began pounding Barbossa with all of his might even though he was tied up as he tried to kill him. He was pulled off. Barbossa had a split lip, a broken nose, and a black eye but all he did was laugh as he spit blood out of his mouth.

"Ye see that island over their Jack", pointing to a small spit of land. "That's gonna be yer new home until ye rot", laughing, the rest of the crew joining as Bootstrap continued to fight feeling tears of his own watching his friend in this agony and having to watch Alanna die. Jack stood their on the plank staring at the endless ocean feeling lost.

"Oh and Jack", as Barbossa took out all of the bullets out of his pistol except one and he threw it to him. Jack caught it until he noticed it was the same pistol that his wife was shot with. Bosun not liking now long this was taking hit the board as the crew of the Black Pearl watched their ex Captain fall into the ocean.

They sailed away cheering and laughing holding Bootstrap hostage as they made a deal with him. For hours Jack searched for Alanna's body but no matter how hard he tried she could not be found. Jack swam to the island and laid their crying staring at the pistol wondering if he should take his life in the process.

No, Alanna would never want him to no matter what ever happened. They swore to each other as they had made love one night that if anything was to ever happen to one of them the other would move on. Jack had found a Rum cash and drank, and drank in complete depression.

He was found 3 days later half dead, not even close to being sober. And that is where our story ends of the past. Jack swore he would take his revenge on Barbossa and he did but Will, Elizabeth, the crew, no one ever found out the real reason. The Black Pearl was Alanna's ship and no one would sail it but Jack and her. But the really thing we must think about is "What if she never died?"

6 years had past since Barbossa had killed his wife. (I'm making the time shorter so Jack got his boat back in 6 years instead of 10) and Jack became Captain of the Black Pearl. It was a month after he had gotten his revenge on Barbossa but even as he wandered around the ship memories would come back. Memories where they had to be put aside, to keep going and never give in.

Please review and tell me what you think!!!! Thanks to all of my reviewers!!
