DISCLAIMER: Yep, don't own anything, except Anna, and I think Anna doesn't want to be owned anyway, in her own little girl power, fight back self. So..Maybe I shouldn't say I own her.

I began to walk down the stairs to my little room (or at least where I sleep) to lay down.

"Anna!"

"What!" I yelled back to the person calling me up the stairs. All I want to do is lay down and think!

"Can you come up here, love?" he asked. That would be Jack.

"Yeah, I'm comin'" I said while rubbing my head and walking up the stairs.

I saw him there with Will next to him, they seemed in a hurry. "We're going to shore," he said to me.

"Okay," I said, we all just stood there.

"C'mon," he said as he grabbed my wrist and we made our way to the small lifeboat on the side of the ship.

"I'm coming, I'm not going to run away, let go!" I said. He let go and we kept walking, "Thank you," I said sarcastically.

"Captain! What if the worst should happen?" Gibbs asked as we placed ourselves on the small boat.

"Keep to the code," Jack said. Oh, yes, the pirates code. No problem, no wait. problem. We got Will, oh well, he's gonna have to grow up and take care of himself now. (A/N: Wow, Anna's mean)

"Aye, the code," Gibbs said and we left to enter the pirates cave.

Jack, Will and I sat there on the boat with Jack and Will rowing. Don't ask why, they just grabbed them, and sometimes girls get a break, such as a time like this, and I won't complain.

Everything was pretty much silent, until we entered the cave. Amazingly Jack wasn't the one who broke the silence.

"What code is Gibbs to keep to if the worst should happen?" Will asked while looking at a skull. Jack and I looked at each other. I don't want to answer that, I nodded my head towards him, saying that he can tell him.

"Pirate's code. Any man that falls behind is left behind." Jack said dully.

"No heroes amongst thieves, eh?" Will said.

"Depends what your definition of a 'hero' is," I said briskly.

Will raised his eyebrows. I'm not sure if that was in recognition or as a sarcastic action. I turned away and looked around at the cave.

"You know, boy, for having such a bleak outlook on pirates you're well on your way to becoming one." Jack said. I gave a short smile to myself, making sure no one saw. He's always there to back me up. My gaze turned downward, in the water. "Sprung two pirates from jail, commandeered a ship of the Fleet, sailed with a buccaneer crew out of Tortuga." Will and Jack both looked at the gold on the bottom of the little river, I looked over on that side, over both of there shoulders, seeing that it was everywhere. ".and you're completely obsessed with treasure." Jack finished.

"Down side or plus side, were still not sure," I said, none of us taking our eyes off of it.

We all got out of the boat and walked farther on, towards the gathering.

"But, that's not true. I'm not obsessed with treasure!" Will said as he quickly turned away from the sight of the stuff.

"Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate." Jack said as we all looked threw the hole in the cave, which looked over the gathering.

"You know, Jack's right," I whispered while nodding my head, I stopped and gave a confused look. "Did I just say that?"

Jack gave me a small hit on my shoulder and we smiled at each other, while he put his arm over my shoulder. I think just what we do, tease each other. Will just rolled his eyes .

"Gentlemen, the time has come! Salvation is nigh! Our torment is near at end." The man said on a hill of gold treasure. I've seen him somewhere before.

"Elizabeth!" Will said he spotted her, next to the man.

I shushed him and looked at Jack who was perfectly focussed on what was happening at the gathering.

"For ten 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 man yelled as all of the men cheered. I looked around realizing the volume that the cheer was making that there were a lot of evil pirates we were going to have to fight.

"Suffered I have." I heard a pirate say.

"Punished we were. The lot of us - disproportionate to our crime. Here it is," he said as he threw off the lid of the chest in front of him. ".the cursed treasure of Cortés himself. Every last piece that went astray we have returned.save for this." He said as he pointed to the medallion on Elizabeth's neck. So there it is, the cursed treasure.

Will scrambled up the hole, upsetting some of the treasure. "C'mon!" he said, wanting us to go down there.

"Not yet." Jack said while pulling him down. "We wait for the opportune moment." Will looked at me I nodded, agreeing with Jack. "Wait." I whispered.

"And when is that moment? When it's of greatest profit to both of you?" Will said angrily. Woah, he's pissed off.

"May I ask you something? Have we ever given you reason not to trust us? Do us a favor, I know it's difficult for you but please stay here. and try not to do anything stupid." Jack said.

I began to walk off with Jack and Jack stopped right were he was, turned around and there was silence as we looked at each other.

"No, no!" I said looking at him, realizing that he was going to make me stay with Will.

"Please, love? For me? Do it for ol' Jack," he said innocently.

I gave a displeased look, scoffed, turned around and walked towards Will.

"So, I'm stuck with you again," I said quietly while looking over the gathering.

"Why do you do that?" he asked.

"Why do I do what?" I asked.

He stood there for a moment, took a deep breath and said, "never mind."

I sighed and looked towards the gathering.

"And who among us has paid the blood sacrifice owed to the heathen gods?" the "leader" yelled.

"US!" yelled all of the pirates.

"And whose blood must yet to be paid?" yelled the leader.

"HERS!" all of the pirates yelled.

I heard something behind me move, and looked to Will, who was not there. Quite slippery, isn't he? I looked behind me and saw Will.carrying an oar. Walking towards Jack.

"Will!" I yelled, "What are you-"

He covered my mouth and looked at me.just looked at me. Why does he keep doing that to me! For a few moments that's all we did, and I didn't kick him or push him or anything. What am I doing!? He is going to whack Jack in the head with an oar, dammit! I can't move.

He removed his hand off of my mouth and he started to walk towards Jack with the oar. I stood in front of him and stopped him from going any farther.

"Trust me," he said confidently. "Do you trust me?"

"Yes," I said without thinking. What did I say?

I stood there, thinking and he kept going. And I knew he was going, but something in me, something weird, prevented me from actually stopping him.

~*~ Sounds like "Aladdin" Yeah? "Do you trust me?" we just need Will to reach out his hand and get a flying magic carpet. Wow, the long awaited 20th chapter, not THAT long, but it's longer that others. And REMEMBER! It took me so long to put this chapter up because me and my friend, Adriane, are working on two other stories. (Here I go again, advertising) The first one is "Oh the Insanity" a PotC fic, which is rather funny actually. And "Insane Etc. Elementary" which is a LotR fic. AND YOU CAN NOW ENROLL! Into the school! Read ch.5 of that story for more deets (oooh, new slang word everyone! Deets, is short for details! No, or maybe: Like deets is such the new coolie, okay, don't ask,) PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!
