Scene 8- Going after the Pearl

Norrington: (speaking to Kiara). Who are you in reality?

Kiara: Kiara Sparrow. I'm Jack's... sister.

Norrington: That's lovely. Do you know where the Black Pearl is going to be?

Kiara: I sure do. They obviously invaded Port Royal because they know that there are three medallions out there, and all three of them happened to be in Port Royal. They found two of them. They're going to the island that cannot be found unless you already know where it is.

Norrington: I'm assuming you know where this island is.

Kiara: Oh yes. I also know where the godforsaken spit of land is.

(Kiara walks to below, finding Nathan looking over the map)

Kiara: The place we're going, you can't find on a map.

Nathan: Then how are we going to find it?

Kiara: I know where it is. I've been there before.

Nathan: I still can't believe that you grew up on that ship.

Kiara: It was hard for the first while. But it taught me a lot of good things too. I learnt how to fight on that ship.

Nathan: It's still insane.

(Scene goes to the upper deck-where the wheel is)

Gillette: Commador! There's a ship in view!

Norrington: Is it the Black Pearl?

(Gillette looks through a telescope)

Gillette: Aye Sir. It is.

(Norrington quickly walks underneath to where Will, Kiara and Nathan are.)

Norrington: Kiara, I suggest you get ready. We're coming up on the Pearl.

(He turns and leaves, Nathan follows him).

Will: Kiara, are you sure you want to do this. Your life could be at risk here. Come to think of it, your life is at risk.

Kiara: Will, trust me with this. I need to do this, and I will do it.

Will: I just don't want you to get hurt.

Kiara: I won't. We'll do it for Jack.

Will: All right. I'll trust you, just . . . don't get yourself killed.

Kiara: I won't. Will, I want you to stay down here. It's safer for you. Don't move until I tell you to.

(She walks above)

Sailor: Commador! The Black Pearl has stopped.

Norrington: Speed up then! We don't want to keep them waiting.

Sailor: Aye Sir.

(Norrington walks over to Kiara. She has her hand on her sword.)

Norrington: Are you sure about this?

Kiara: Yes I am.

(They come up beside the Black Pearl. Kiara tightens her grip on her sword.)

Bootstrap: (Calling to the dauntless) Who would be the captain of this fine ship?

(Norrington moves forward)

Kiara: Don't!

(She moves her hand to stop Norrington.)

Kiara: Bootstrap's too dangerous for you to fight. I'll take him.

(Norrington looks confused)

Norrington: What are you . . .

Kiara: I'm the captain of this ship. What would it be that you want Bootstrap?

Bootstrap: If you really are the captain. I wish to fight you.

Kiara: I am the captain.

(Pirates lower boards from one ship to another)

Kiara: If you'd like to fight me

(She starts to walk across the boards)

Kiara: Then I'll do so.

Bootstrap: (calling to his pirates) Attack them men!

(Pirates attack the Dauntless, with swords and guns only. Kiara then walks up to Bootstrap).

Bootstrap: You wouldn't dare fight the captain of the Black Pearl.

Kiara: Obviously

(Unsheathes her sword)

Kiara: You don't know me.

(Bootstrap and Kiara fight. Out of nowhere, all his pirates sit down)

Soldier: What are you doing?

Pirate: The cap'in's fightin'. Everyone watches when the cap'in fights.

Soldier: Okay . . .

(Slowly, the soldiers sit down amongst the pirates)

Bootstrap: (To Kiara) You're quite good at this. Where did you learn?

Kiara: On this very ship!

(Bootstrap goes to stab her, she dodges by sliding through his legs, then kicks him from behind)

(The pirates soldiers are still sitting there watching. Kiara Bootstrap continue to fight for around 2 mins.)

(Kiara impales Bootstrap).

Bootstrap: You keep forgetting something Missy. We can't die.

(He takes the sword out and impales Kiara. She gags for a second, then stands straight)

Kiara: You keep forgetting . . . that I'm one of you!

(They turn to the pirates and soldiers)

Bootstrap: What are you all doing just sitting there! KILL THEM!

(Everyone fights, Kiara shouts to Will to come above. He does so. The entire ship freezes.) Total fighting time: 4:64

Bootstrap: William.

Will: Who are you?

Kiara: This is your father.

Will: Bootstrap?

Kiara Bootstrap: Yeah.

Bootstrap: I can't fight the ship that my son is on

Kiara: I thought you would change your mind.

Will: You were using me!

Kiara: No I wasn't! I would never . . .

(Will cuts her off)

Will: I know who you are. You used me.

Kiara: I...

Will: What is with you Sparrow's and using me as your leverage?

Bootstrap: Sparrow? You're a Sparrow?

Kiara: One of the only two left alive.

Bootstrap: That means you've got the third medallion that we're looking for.

(Kiara rolls her eyes).

Kiara: Really? I thought I was only chasing after this ship to die!

Bootstrap: Hey it's possible.

Kiara: Yes. But you see, I'm not that stupid.

Norrington: I thought that Mr. Turner had the last medallion

Kiara: That was until the monkey stole a medallion. Soon enough, three were out. I somehow ended up with one.

Bootstrap: Well I'll be taking that from you soon young missy.

Kiara: The name's Kiara Sparrow. Start using it.

Bootstrap: Aye Miss Sparrow.
