I do not own Jack Sparrow, or Will Turner, or anything else from the movie.

Chapter 5

Ruby breathed in the sea air and closed her eyes. When she opened them, Jack was climbing up the steps toward her. Diana, who was busy being sick over the edge of the boat, didn't notice this. Jack soon was beside her, his arm sliding quickly around her waist. "Where are we going, love?" Ruby looked down at his arm. And rolled her eyes.

"Well, I was thinking," she answered, standing still in his grip, looking forward. "that you maybe could take us to Isla da Muerta. I've never been there, ya know," She looked up at him. He raised his eyebrow and grinned.

"That means you'd have to let me steer the ship, because, ya know love, Isla da Muerta can only be found-"

"By those who already know where it is," Ruby finished and sighed, stepping aside. Jack nodded his thanks and quickly took a hold of the wheel. Ruby looked over at Diana, who wasn't throwing up anymore, but looking out at the sea behind them.

"Diana," Ruby called. Diana looked up at her. "We had better get you out of those clothes."

Once they were below deck, in Ruby's room and Ruby had chosen some of her clothes for Diana to where, Ruby asked, "Why are you so upset to be aboard the Grande Lady?" Diana looked at her from where she was sitting on Ruby's bed.

"W-well, I've never been on a boat. Not since I came here from England," Ruby looked at her, knowing there was more, but she didn't press the matter. She nodded.

"Yes, well, hand me your dress and I can put it away safe for you," Diana looked at her, hesitant. Ruby sighed. "I'm not gonna steal it, mate, I swear," Still, looking at Ruby, Diana took the dress off and handed it to Ruby, who put it away in her closet. She looked back to find Diana struggling with her corset. "Well, that looks quite painful. Let me help you with that," Diana smiled a little and Ruby untied the corset. "Well, you get dressed. I'm going to go above deck," Diana nodded.

"T-thank you," Ruby just nodded and climbed the stairs. Once she was above deck, she looked up at Jack, who was steering her ship. She frowned, not at all happy with this, but figuring she couldn't do anything about it. She looked around the deck and saw Sephora talking to Will and Katherine, sitting beside him, glowering a bit at Sephora. Ruby looked back up at Jack, before climbing up the stairs to stand beside him. Jack glanced over at her and pulled out his compass. She looked at him, still wondering how he could read it, but didn't ask.

"If you wanted to know, we're gettin' close. But I would recommend you only take a few of us in. Curse 'n all." Jack said. Ruby nodded, seeing a rocky island peer out of the fog.

"Me and you, Will, Sephora," She looked down at the deck, where Diana was coming out from the stairs. "What about the girls? Don't think they would appreciate us leaving them with the crew," Jack nodded.

"They can come," Jack closed the compass and shouted, "Lower the anchor!" Ruby looked at him. He smiled a bit. "My apologies," Ruby nodded.

"Lower the anchor!" She shouted.

"Lower the anchor!" Her crew shouted back at her and she climbed down the stairs, Jack close behind her.

"Aye, Sephora, Will!" They looked up and Ruby motioned them to get into the first rowboat. Katherine immediately started to follow Will, climbing into the boat with him. Diana hung back, but Ruby motioned her to come to. "Will, you row, Jack and I will come in the other boat," Will nodded as the crew loweredhis boat into the water and quickly got the other one ready. Ruby and Jack climbed in, and were lowered into the water. Jack started rowing.

Ruby looked at the boat ahead of them, resting her head on the side of the row boat, looking at Jack, who grinned. Ruby, for the first time, smiled back, as they entered the cave. Ruby looked down into the water and soon Jack had rowed them to where the other boat was already pulled up onto the rock. She got out of the boat and walked down a tunnel that lead into a huge room, filled to its ceilings with treasure. Ruby gasped. She walked around, looking at all the gold and silver, artwork and dresses. Soon, she saw a stone chest, its top lying askew. She slowly walked up to it, pushing the top off. The gold coins inside glittered and she reached down. Jack caught her wrist.

"I wouldn't do that," Jack smiled, butthe smilequickly disappeared. "Where's Will?" Ruby looked around.

"Sephora?" A crash came from a stack of loot and Ruby quickly walked away from the chest, her hand on her sword. "Diana?" She quickly rounded the pile and pulled her sword out. It met with another.

"Ah, Ruby, It's been a long time."
