Ok first of all: apologies. I've been really busy and haven't had much time to write.

Second: reviewers!

Little Miss Sparrow: you're welcome! So, did you like Magical Trevor?

16aqua: Of course I kept my promise!

iLUVfire: that was kinda the point. Thanks!

Starpossum: ah, another Lost fan, eh? I dunno but for me it would probably be "I heart Ian Somerhalder" or however you spell Boone's name.

Nemi Jade: aww, that's nice to hear!

Poisonous Angel: yeah, I know it was short but I just wanted people to know that I am alive.

Captain Blackett: actually, I dunno if you've ever tried it, but scratching something in wood isn't that hard. And my fingernails are always dodgy :)

ON WITH THE STORY!

"Mush, Jack! Mush!" Amy was yelling.

"Oh, do shut up!" Jack growled, giving her a light tap on the head with the oar.

They rowed into the cave.

"Ooh, looky there, Jack! It's your skeleton friend,"

Jack didn't even bother to reply.

Amy could hear the distant chanting of the pirates as they clambered out of the rowboat.

"Ok, Jack," Amy said as they strode towards the sound, "what's the plan?"

Jack didn't answer; he made his way from behind the rock towards the pirates.

Amy grabbed the back of his coat, "we're just gonna go marching in there? No sneakiness? No stealth?"

"No, now come on!"

"Alright, then,"

Jack went first, pushing his way through the swarm of pirates. Barbossa was stood on the mound of treasure, a knife held at the throat of Will.

Amy was close behind Jack, who was saying "beg your pardon," while pushing through.

"Begun by blood," Barbossa called out, "by blood un-"

He caught sight of Jack and stopped abruptly.

"Jack!" Will said.

"Ahem!" Amy leapt out from behind Jack.

"And Amy," Will added.

"'s not possible!" Barbossa breathed,

"Not probable!"

Amy giggled.

"Where's Elizabeth?" Will asked.

Amy stepped forward, faking a solemn look on her face.

"I'm sorry, Will. She died. Jack shot her on the island," she lied.

"Jack! You didn't, did you!" Will gasped.

"No!" Jack gave Amy a death-glare and she returned it with a grin, "She's safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised! So we're all men of our word, really. Except for Elizabeth who is, in fact, a woman,"

"Shut up! You're next!" Barbossa said, leaning back towards Will.

"Tough luck, Jack!" Amy said, briskly.

"Then you!" Barbossa called, not looking up.

"Guh?" Amy blurted out.

Barbossa raised the knife to Will's throat. Amy tugged Jack's coat, wanting him to do something about it.

"You don't want to be doing that, mate," Jack said.

Barbossa looked back at him.

"No, I really think I do,"

Jack shrugged, "Your funeral,"

Amy smiled.

Barbossa rolled his eyes and turned back to Jack.

"Why don't I want to doing it?"

"Well because," Jack paused to push Bo'sun's hand off his shoulder, "because the HMS Dauntless, pride of the Royal Navy, is floating just offshore, waiting for you,"

Amy only just realised that one of the pirates was gripping her arm tightly. She was starting to lose feeling in her fingers.

"Um, excuse moi," she said to the pirate, "can you loosen up a bit. My hand is numb,"

"No," he said, shortly.

"Puhleeease!"

"No,"

"Fine, if my hand falls off I hope it wrings your neck!"

He chuckled, "fiery little thing, aren't ya?"

"Um…thanks?"

She turned her attention back to Jack, who was talking with Barbossa.

"Just hear me out, mate," he was saying, "You order your men to row out to the Dauntless, they do what they do best. Robert's your uncle, Fannie's your aunt, there you are with two ships. The makings of your very own fleet. Course you'll take the grandest as your flag ship and who's to argue? But what of the Pearl? Name me captain and I'll sail under your colours, give you ten percent of me plunder and you get to introduce yourself as…Commodore Barbossa, savvy?"

Amy looked at Barbossa.

"I s'pose in exchange you want me to not kill the whelp," he said

"No, no, no not at all, by all means kill the whelp,"

"Guh!" Amy stuttered.

"You can kill this one too, while you're at it," Jack added.

Amy slapped the back of his head.

"Just, not yet. Wait to lift the curse until the opportune moment. " Jack gave Will a significant look. "For instance," He reached down and scooped a handful of coins from the chest.

"After you killed Norrington's men…every" he dropped one back in with a PLINK "last" PLINK "one" PLINK

Amy glanced at his hand, he still had a couple of medallions. He pocketed one and walked behind Amy. She felt something cold shoved into her hand. He had handed her a medallion.

"You've been planning this from the beginning. Ever since you learned my name," Will said.

Amy grinned at him.

"yeah," said Jack.

Amy stealthily place the medallion in her pocket.

"I want fifty percent of your plunder," Barbossa said to Jack.

"Fifteen,"

"Forty,"

"Twenty five," Jack reasoned, "I'll buy you the hat! A really big one…Commodore."

"We have an accord," They shook hands.

"Finally," Amy mumbled, she was getting pretty bored.

"All hands to the boats!" Amy and Jack said together. Jack peered at her, quizzically. She grinned back at him. He turned around to see Barbossa glaring at him.

"Apologies," he said, "You give the orders,"

"Gents," Barbossa ordered, "Take a walk!"

The pirates chuckled and walked away.

"Not to the boats?" Jack said, worried.

Barbossa raised his eyebrows at him. Amy flipped the coin in her pocket, a smile plastered on her face. She was immortal.

The Immortal Amy has such a lovely ring to it, doesn't it?

Anyways, see ya soon!
