Chapter 9: Looking for Jack

Port Royal Prison

The governor and Will rapidly descended the stone steps that lead to the prison. A guard tries to stop Will, and said to the Governor, "He can't be down here."

The governor raised his hand to calm the guard. "I believe he can."

"Jack's compass? What does Beckett want with that?" Elizabeth asked Will through the bars of her cell.

"Does it matter?" Will asked. "I'm to find Jack and convince him to return to Port Royal. In exchange the charges against us will be dropped."

Elizabeth reached a hand through the bars and stroked his cheek. "I have faith in you…both of you. Where will you find him?"

Will looked to the side a bit and thought before saying, "Tortuga. I'll start there and I won't stop until I find him. Then I intend to return here, to marry you. If you'll still have me.

"I'd have you right now if it weren't for these bars." Elizabeth answered. "I'll wait for you." She finished.

"Keep a weather eye on the horizon." With that, he and the governor went back up the stone steps.

Tortuga

"Captain Jack Sparrow? Owes me four doubloons. Heard 'e was dead." A sailor told Will.

"Singapore. That's what I heard. Drunk with a smile on his face. Sure as the tide, Jack Sparrow... will turn up in Singapore." A fisherman informed him.

"Jack Sparrow!" Giselle exclaimed, seemingly shocked.

"Haven't seen 'im in over a month" Scarlet said looking over at Giselle.

Giselle walked up to Will and told him, "When you do, will you give him a message?" With that she slapped him across the face.

A shrimper looked up from his net that he was mending without stopping. "'Dere's a island, just south of 'de straits, where I trade spice for... mmm... delicious long pork. Cannot say about Jack. But you find a ship 'dere. A ship wit' black sails."

CANNIBAL ISLAND

The shrimper looked through his spyglass, and saw the 'Pearl' stranded on the island.

"My brother will take you ashore." He told Will, while he closed the spyglass.

His brother was rowing Will to shore, when he stopped just before he got to land.

"What's wrong?" Will asked. "The beach is right there."

"Je ne peux, c'est trop dangereux, j'avais le dit. Bon voyage, monsieur." The brother said.

Will jumped out of the boat and swims ashore.

Will walked along the side of the 'Black Pearl'. Stepping back a little, he yelled, "JACK! JACK SPARROW!" Getting no response, he called out to the others. "Marty! Cotton! Anybody?"

He walked towards the forest. Cotton's parrot landed on a tree branch beside him.

"Ah, a familiar face." Will sighed.

The bird spread its wings and rawked, "Don't eat me!" Will looked at it confused. "I'm not going' to eat you." He then walked away, the bird all the while saying, "Don't eat me! No! Don't eat me! Akkk!"

Will found Gibbs' husk canteen hanging on a plant, trailing a long string. "Gibbs." Will said quietly, picking up the canteen. He followed the string to a large tree. Suddenly, a man jumped out from against a tree. Will is yanked back by a snare, and dangles upside-down from a rope.

Cannibals charge out of the bushes from all directions. Will keeps them at bay with his sword, swinging it around. "Euh! Unh! Ya! Come on! Let's go! Euh! Ya! Come on! Who wants it? Unh! I could do this all day! Euh! Euh! Hah!" Will yelled flinging his sword around.

A cannibal with a bone through his nose used a blowgun to shoot a dart into Will's neck.

Will went still and dropped his sword.

Well,I hoped you enjoyed this chap! PLEASE REVEIW!
