I had an idea for this story and decided to add it in the story instead of a sequal. Who know...maybe i'll add more.


"Gents! I have an announcement to make." Bootstrap said to the crew.

The crew gathered in front of their captain with Barbossa in the front and Jack was standing to the right of Bill and a little behind.

"As you may or may not know I have a family at home. I miss them terribly and want to go back to see them." Bill searched for a reaction from the crew. "What I'm sayin is that there will be a new captain."

"Who!" came from the crew.

Bill hesitated for a moment. He didn't realize it would be hard to announce this. He then and there realized he was telling a group of older pirates that they were going to have a 16 year old captain. "Jack."

Silence

Bill quickly went on not wanting to give anybody the chance to say anything. "Jack has proved himself over and over again. He deserves this position. He has been on this ship longer than some of you. I will be here for a little bit longer. Just until we reach a port that I can get to England from." Bill finished.

There was silence on this ship. That was extremely rare. It was Barbossa that broke the silence.

"With all do respect Captain. Jack isn't just young. A young captain is 25 at the least. Jack is only just turning 16. Does he really know enough?"

"I have no reason to believe he would be anything less than great."

All this time Jack stood behind Bill. He was beginning to have second thoughts standing in front of everyone. When Bill told them they didn't seem too happy. Jack was lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear what Bill had said.

"Jack?"

"What?"

"I asked if you wanted to say anything." Jack just stood there. "Come on. You can do this." Bill said quietly. "Just tell them what you want to do."

Jack slowly made his was past Bill so he was standing in front of the crew. "I had a few ideas what we could do." He started out. He paused for a moment as a thought came into his head. I'm captain of the Black Pearl. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. With that he turned his head to Bill and gave one of his famous smiles before turning back to the crew of the Black Pearl.

There you are Jack. Bill thought as Jack went back to the crew.

"First of all I want to start out saying I know I'm young. Many of you might not like that. I will do my best to be that greatest captain there is. I already know what we can do. While in Tortuga a found a map leading to the Isla de Muerta. It's an island that cannot be found except by those who already know where it is. There is the treasure of Cortez himself. I have the bearings and I can take us there. The treasure there will make all of us richer beyond belief. Whose with me!"

"Aye" shouts came from the crew."

Barbossa then stepped forward. "Captain." He paused. It felt wrong coming off his tongue. "Captain, who is your first mate going to be?"

"Good question. I have decided that you, Mr. Barbossa, to take that responsibility. Do you except?"

He didn't answer right away. "Of course; Thank ye…sir"

"Good. I think this will work out well. I trust you all. Soon we will be rich beyond our wildest dreams."

Nobody saw the smile creep on Barbossa's lips as Jack finished talking except Bill.

NO! Bills mind screamed. Why did he say that? That's when Bill realized that Barbossa might not have been the best choice. He also realized that he wouldn't be leaving so soon. There was only one thing to do.

"Captain, do you mind having me along on this little adventure?"

"Course not! You, William Turner, are always welcome."

That night there were three very important thoughts on the Black Pearl.

I will have this ship

I know your gonna hate this Jack, but I'm going to protect you.

I'm finally Captain. I will be the greatest pirate captain there ever was. Captain Jack Sparrow.

The End (Maybe)
