A/N: Ok well a couple people didn't review my last chapter so I'm hoping I will get reviews for this one. Anyway here we go!
Will worked most of the day, hammering and burning the metal to work it the way he needed it to. Occasionally he asked questions about the Code, such as what it was and a few rules that were in it.
Jack never enforced the Code, that is unless to save his own neck because he did something stupid to get himself into a sticky situation. Don't think the mutiny was the only thing that happened.
One time Jack was sitting on the edge of the Pearl lacing his boots, having extreme difficulty doing so.
"You want me to help with that?" I asked.
"NO! I GOT IT!" He shouted bitterly.
He had been at it for an hour at that point. Barbossa walked past him and 'accidentally' elbowed Jack in the back and when he turned around to snap at him Jack fell backwards off the railing. I caught his boot by hooking my feet onto the railing and leaning down.
"Captain? Are ye alright Captain?" Barbossa asked, pretending to be concerned.
"Perfect! Just pull Jazzy up so she can pull me up!" Jack retorted, seemingly pissed.
A loud clattering noise snapped me out of my reminiscing.
"Sorry, dropped the hammer." Will apologized. "Is it really night already?"
An eerie silence had fallen over the port. And yet I sensed something malevolent approaching. Even the slightest puff of wind carried the fragrance of something deadly and evil coming forth.
"Will?"
"Yes?"
"I need a pre-made sword." I said standing up.
"Why?" He questioned.
A loud explosion echoed across the port, followed by screaming and more detonations.
"That's why."
Instead Will proceeded towards the door.
"Stay here and take cover." He ordered and slammed the door shut.
"To hell I will."
I made my way toward the donkey in the room and laid a hand on its back. I saw through his eyes and picked up a sword from the rack. Then, releasing hold of the creature, I went out the door.
I wouldn't be able to see where I was going so I needed an animal of some kind. As I tried to avoid people by the sound of their screaming, I also endeavored to find a creature to ride upon.
A neighing sound caught my ear and I followed that until I touched a creature, and saw through its eyes. It was sleek and white, with a brown spot on the side of its back. I climbed up on the horse and rode through the town, attempting to see what is causing some much chaos.
And there was the Black Pearl, with my old crew mates coming ashore on small rowboats. Some were already flooding the streets, slashing and killing any civilian in their path.
I rode back, trying to figure out where Will was before any of the pirates found him, or discovered who he was.
"WILL! WILL!" I called stupidly, knowing he wouldn't hear me over the cannon fire and screaming.
A small boy was crying for his mom and screaming as a canopy got fired at and was about to fall on him. I grabbed his arm and pulled him on the horse and away from the deadly wood. I dropped him off in front of a secure building and rode onward, searching everywhere for Will.
Then there he was, blocking a pirate away from a hysterical woman. A bomb was dropped near his feet. But it didn't detonate. The pirate he was fighting looked worried, at least, until another comrade of his smacked Will in the head with a candlestick base.
"Are you kidding me?" I shouted.
The first pirate he was fighting took out a sword and held it above his chest. I kicked the horses sides and raced forward.
"Sorry, no killing here." I told the pirate and the horse kicked him.
I scooped the unconscious Turner onto my horse and rode onward, trying to avoid interaction with the invulnerable pirates. Suddenly they were swarming around me and stabbing the poor creature. The horse was falling on its side, so I took my chances and jumped off it.
I was going to have to attempt to fight these pirates blindly. Or run away. I pulled Will onto my back and made a mad dash for a type of sanctuary. I felt stairs and proceeded up them until I didn't think there were any more. WRONG!
When I landed at the bottom of the stairs I rubbed the back of my head and used the wall to support myself up.
"Anyone care to tell me where I am?" I called into the room.
"You're in the prison love. Now would you mind getting that dog with the keys?" Jack answered.
"You're one of a kind Captain Sparrow." I responded.
"You again Jazzy? I thought me old crew would have sent you down to see 'ol Davey Jones and whatnot."
"Well that shows how much faith you have in me. Even after all these years." I answered dragging Will down the hallways with me.
"You're getting closer, closer, ok stop." He guided me to him.
I sat down on the floor and reached put my hands up on the bars.
"Ah that's the young fellow who got me sent into here. You bring him here so I can slit his throat?" Jack asked.
"No, I brought him here to stay safe. You really don't know who he is?" I asked.
"No. Do you?"
"Does the name William Turner ring any bells?"
Jack was silent for a moment.
"Bootstrap's son?"
"The one and only."
Silence. Since we were both stuck there I needed to ask Jack something that had been bothering me for years.
"Jack, how do I come to be on the Pearl?"
A/N: Ok that's it for now. R&R PLEASE!
