Disclaimer: Not mine…yet…just kidding! The only POTC related thing that I have is the DVD my parents bought, that I stole from them, and I have ten bucks that I need in order to pay my friend back, she will not be happy with you if you steal it…or order me to hand it over as some kind of fine or something.

Tessi's Point Of View

I had been laying on my back on the same cut up rug for somewhere over three hours while Misty was throwing herself at the door trying to break it down or pounding and screaming on it trying to get a random sailor to open the door, of course none of them listened to her. Frankly it was giving me a migraine, so I very kindly told her to shut up and sit down before I smothered her with a pillow. And she very pleasantly told me what I could do with that pillow. Loving sister I have there.

Eventually I did grab that pillow and put it over Misty's mouth but I managed to hear a muffled, "All right I'll sit down." So I let her go and laid back down playing with the stupid cut up rug and Misty sat down on the bed, very quietly not doing anything…for about three seconds. Then she started bouncing…then humming…then tapping her feet. And then I lifted the pillow and started getting up and she sat still again. For another five seconds. After this happening another six times, I got up and started pounding on the door myself screaming to get me out of the damn compartment before Misty took a long walk out the window.

I could feel Misty's glare but I kept screaming about how I didn't think that my father would like it very much if his daughter got hung by the commodore that was marrying one of his other daughters, and how Puffy Wig needed to let me out of the room before I accompanied Misty on her walk, and then Father really wouldn't be happy with him. I finally had to stop because my own voice was just making my migraine worse, how sad is that.

Anyway, Misty stayed quiet long enough for me to fall asleep, I say long enough for me to fall asleep because I doubt that she was quiet for very long after, because once I was asleep, I was gone to the world unless you annoyed me awake, confused me awake, or scared me awake. The first option was how Misty chose to wake me up, and thankfully my migraine was gone by then, for her sake of course.

It was dark by then, and I could see that we were approaching some sort of black rocky mass, which I assumed to be Isla de Muerta. Maybe I would actually get to go ashore this time, seeing as how there is no possible way to confess my love to Jack and be royally embarrassed.

Misty had been charging at the door since I had woken up an hour ago, and I was busy laughing at her while she got hurt, and just as she was about to hit the door for the fiftieth time, it swung open and Nicholas stood there with a couple other amused and surprised officers that were apparently escorting Elizabeth, who was not going quietly. Misty looked sheepishly up at them from her position of being sprawled on the floor, and then realizing that the door was open; she rushed at the officers who grabbed her as well. It was very amusing listening to Misty cursing them at the same time Elizabeth was trying to warn them that they were going to be killed because the pirates couldn't die.

Then before Gillette shut the door he said to Elizabeth patronizingly, "Don't worry, miss, he's already informed of that. A little mermaid flopped up on deck and told him the whole story."

Misty screamed in frustration, and went back to banging on the doors, and Elizabeth screamed "THIS IS JACK SPARROW'S DOING!"

I had gotten up by this time and seeing how close to the island we were, meant that it was time to put my plan into action. I pulled off all the sheets and began ripping them into sections, the ripping noise caught Misty and Elizabeth's attention, she had been looking around at the absolute chaos we had created. Misty thought that I was creating more of a mess and was about to tear one of the strips in half when I threw a pillow at her and said to leave that alone it was our ticket out.

"What?" Elizabeth and Misty said at the same time very confused.

"We're going to be making a rope in order to get down the side of the ship and swim to one of the boats then we'll free the crew, and hopefully manage to convince them to help us, although I can't be sure that they will."

That seemed to make sense to Elizabeth and Misty and they started tying the strips together. We were done relatively quickly and broke the windows since none of them wanted to open, and of course everyone on deck simply assumed that it was us causing more havoc, then dear old dad, came just as I was leaving, Elizabeth was the last to leave, and was doing her best to ignore what Father was saying.

Looking back, I realize that it probably wasn't the smartest thing in the world to have Misty go down the rope first, seeing as how she wasn't a strong swimmer, even though we didn't have far to go to get to one of the boats. Misty managed to hold her own however, and Elizabeth and I got into the boat and pulled her up, we allowed her to rest as we rowed over to the Pearl. We climbed aboard the ship and were surprised by that stupid monkey. Elizabeth just smirked at the monkey as she threw him overboard, he wasn't an ugly monkey really…well as a skeleton he was, but when he wasn't a skeleton he was adorable. Evil, but adorable nonetheless.

We started down the steps to the holds, and had to hide when the two pirates on guard came up the stairs, looking for us. We continued on once they were past us, and opened the door to the hold.

Elizabeth walked in first and Gibbs yelled, "It's Elizabeth! It's Elizabeth!" I followed her in and cleared my throat, and went to grab the keys, as he yelled, "It's all the girls!"

Misty was standing at the door watching for the pirate guards, and looked over her shoulder and said, "Shut up already! They'll hear us!" I tossed the keys to Elizabeth and she unlocked the door and we all winced as it creaked loudly. Misty put a hand up to stop us from charging out the door when she saw that the pirates had just gone back into the galley. We went in sixes quietly up the stairs, because two could fit on the steps at once, and we wanted to get the most people up the steps at once. We would always wait a minute before the next group went. Once we all were up on deck we started making noise to get the pirates to come up. After they did we hit them in the boat which forced them into the sea.

Elizabeth ran forward and started yelling, "All of you with us. Will is in that cave and we must save him. Ready? And heave!" Once she realized that Misty and I were the only ones who had helped she turned around and said, "Please, I need your help! Come on!" then she turned to me and said, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

I rubbed the back of my neck awkwardly and stared at the ground while Cottons parrot chirped; "Any port in the storm."

Gibbs looked a little awkward and regretful and said, "Cotton's right, we've got the Pearl."

"What about Jack?" I asked quietly and with slight disbelief, "You're just going to leave him?"

"Jack owes us a ship!" one of the sailors chimed in.

"There's also the code to consider." Gibbs added after that.

Suddenly Misty started yelling, because she was very angry, "The code? You're pirates. Hang the code, and hang the rules!"

Elizabeth cut her off and added; "They're more like guidelines anyway!"

They didn't even move. And hardly any of them would look us in the eye, I wanted to throw something, but I just walked back over to the ladder and climbed back down into the boat we had used before. Misty and Elizabeth followed.

"Bloody Pirates…" Elizabeth muttered as we rowed towards the cave

"Cowards!" I yelled towards the boat, not seeing Elizabeth and Misty exchange knowing glances, the rest of the trip was spent in silence.

When they got into the cave they saw that there were few pirates, and Jack seemed to be locked in battle with Barbossa. Will was fighting everyone else.

"Looks like he could use some help," Elizabeth said, kind of redundantly.

I nodded and Misty and I got out from behind the rock and were carefully making our way down the slope, we grabbed two swords from one of the piles and were trying to motion Elizabeth to come out. She shook her head feverishly and ducked down again. I rolled my eyes and then I heard Misty screaming, she was hopping across the rocks trying to run from a pirate.

"USE YOUR SWORD MISTY! THAT'S WHAT IT'S THERE FOR!" I screamed at her as another pirate started towards me, I hurried up and ran down the slope so that I was on even ground, there was no way I could hold my own on that hill. I barely registered Misty yelling back, "Oh Right," because not only was I trying not to get stabbed, but Jack was busy screaming at me about when to parry or attack. I was able to ignore most of this, although some of these things were useful like when I was supposed to attack.

While I was ignoring Jack I managed to see Elizabeth emerge from behind the rock to help Will out. A pirate had just knocked him down and said, "I'm going to teach you the meaning of pain!"

Elizabeth smacked him across the side and back of his head and said, "You like pain? Try wearing a corset."

Then as Misty was backing her pirate up near another two, Elizabeth asked, "Which side is Jack on?"

"At the moment?" Will said before they shoved the big gold pole through the three of them and then Misty shoved a grenade into the center's chest and they shoved them out of the moonlight.

"No Fair!" the pirate yelled before the grenade went off.

But when Jack started yelling at me about how women shouldn't be fighting and he had it under control that was just too much.

"SHUT UP JACK! I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING!"

"NO YOU DON'T!" He yelled back at me, "BECAUSE IF YOU HAD ANY SENSE AT ALL YOU WOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE!"

"I'M NOT JUST GOING TO SIT ON THE SHIP AND WAIT TO SEE IF YOU ACTUALLY MAKE IT OUT OF THIS CRAZY THING ALIVE!"

"WELL IT'S YOUR JOB AS A WOMAN TO SIT AND WAIT FOR THE MAN! I'M SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THE DARING STUFF, NOT YOU! ME BECAUSE I'M THE-"

Misty and Elizabeth, droned; "Capitan Jack Sparrow, WE KNOW!"

"ONE THING YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME SPARROW! I'M NOT THE KIND OF GIRL WHO SITS AROUND AND WAITS!"

Barbossa chuckled and said, "Feisty little wench isn't she? But I think you would already know about that wouldn't you Jack. You're reputation does proceed you, you know."

"SHUT UP BARBOSSA YOU CRUDE BASTARD!" I screamed I had, with the help of Misty and Elizabeth blown up the pirate I had been fighting.

"Hot tempered." I heard Barbossa say to Jack.

"You have no idea."

"I HEARD THAT SPARROW!"

Jack and Barbossa were back in front of the pile of gold that held the chest of Aztec gold. Will had already gotten up to the top and cut his hand and pressed the coin to it. Jack did the same quickly and threw his coin up to Will.

I was starting to run across the rocks when Barbossa suddenly whipped his head around to me and aimed his pistol. I sucked in my breath and my eyes grew wide, I could feel my heart hammering in my chest, it felt like it was about to explode. Then I heard the gunshot, I stopped breathing and almost fainted. I only started breathing again when I realized that I wasn't dead yet.

"Ten years you carry that pistol, and now you waste your shot." Barbossa said, smirking happily at Jack.

"He didn't waste it." Came Will's stern reply, all heads swiveled up to Will and he dropped both coins in.

Barbossa's sword dropped from his hand and he moved aside his jacket to stare at the blood seeping from his chest. "I feel…cold." He said as he fell over, an apple fell from his hand.

I stood there for a while, trying to catch my breath, reassuring myself that I was still alive. Elizabeth and Misty were standing around awkwardly as Jack was going through the piles of gold. I wasn't really sure what I should do with myself.

Will walked over to them and Elizabeth said, "We should return to the Dauntless."

"Your fiancé will be wanting to know that you're safe." Will replies.

Misty and Elizabeth walk away and Jack swaggers over, with a crown on his head and says, "If you were waiting for the opportune moment, that was it."

I laughed, and as I was walking over, said, "Jack, you're a little slow on the uptake, neither Elizabeth or Misty are who our dearest William is in love with."

"Oh…" Jack said and then added, "Now, if you will be so kind, I'd be much obliged if you'd drop me off at my ship."

An odd choking feeling occurred in my chest at Jack's words. I didn't know what I would do if he left me behind, knowing that I would probably never see him again. Who was I compared to any of the other girls he's had before, just a governors daughter, and he was a pirate. We couldn't be any more different. Those thoughts occupied me as we walked to the boat. Will and Elizabeth rowed us back, and I sat next to Jack in the front of the ship. My heart leapt when I saw that the Pearl was no longer there.

"I'm sorry, Jack." Elizabeth said quietly.

"They done what's right by them." Jack said, "can't expect more then that." I didn't know how to place the emotion in his voice, all I knew was that it hurt almost as much as knowing that he was leaving.

AN: SORRY! SORRY! SORRY THAT THIS HAS TAKEN SO LONG! I know, I'm horrible, but I got a huge case of writers block, along with midterms, and being really busy trying to bring up my English grades, and just preparing for midterms, and on top of all that, I really didn't feel like writing, no excuse I know, I'm sorry. I tried to make it long to make up for the wait, but it just didnt work.
