Wow,two chaps in one day.
Jack Sparrow was in his quarters sitting at his desk. A map was before him. He sighed and taped his compass. It was still acting up.

He picked up a bottle of rum but tipped in upside down, watching as only a drop came out.

"Why is the rum always gone?" He asked himself. He got up and swaggered a bit. "Oh, that's why." He walked by his sister sleeping form on the couch, who just moments ago was awake.

Jack sighed and took off her effects and set them down on his desk, before he continued his journey to get more rum.

He went below deck to the storage room. Looking around he found a bottle in the rack…but there was only dirt in it.

Hearing a noise he turned sharply around, dropping the bottle in the process.

Going around a few boxes and crates he looked closer.

"Bootstrap? Bill Turner?" He asked moving closer.

A man that had sea things growing on him turned around.

Jack's eyes widen slightly.

"You look good Jack." Bill said, a little water coming out of his mouth.

Jack cocked his head to the side. "Is this a dream?" He asked, standing up straight.

"No." Bootstrap replied.

"I thought not." Jack set the latrine down. "If it were there'd be rum." On queue, Bootstrap handed him a bottle.

"Ye got the Pearl back I see." Bill said looking around.

"I had a little help retrieving the Pearl…your son."

"William? He ended up a pirate after all."

"And to what do I owe the pleasure of your carbuncle?" Jack asked.

"He sent me…Davy Jones. Jack you have to fill your dept. He raised the Pearl for 'ye to be captain for 15 years." Bootstrap said getting up.

"Technically I was only captain for 2 befo…" He was cut off by Bill. "Doesn't matter Jack. It's coming for you."

"Any idea on when Jones might release said terrible beastie?" A tint of fear in his voice.

"I already told ya Jack." He took his friends hand and swiped his palm against his, then closed Jack's hand into a fist.

"It comes after anyone who bears," at this moment Jack opens his hand, "the Black Spot." Jack looked up, but Bootstrap was already gone. He ran to go wake his crew.
