A/N: I was going to wait until later to post…and you know, sleep, but I had a great idea for a chapter. Hope everyone likes it. And I'm also changing the way I'm writing about others for this chapter. Hopefully it will just be this chapter and won't be too confusing.

At World's End: Chapter 7

Jack paced his cabin. His cabin was the damp, gooey insides of a squid-like creature.

'If I close my eyes,' he thought, 'I can almost picture my captain's quarters on the Pearl.'

"Beastie, this is going to be my last attempt to talk some sense into you. I hope you speak English and not some horrible fish language because my previous attempts would have fallen on deaf ears, if you have ears. Please, please, I'm asking nicely. And I don't do anything nicely. Make port somewhere and spit me out. I can't possibly taste any good. Besides, I have to get out and find Elizabeth Swann. I need to chain her to a sinking ship. In fact, I'll give you Elizabeth when I get out. Gibbs was right: women are bad luck on ships. Dani was never bad luck though…"

The Kraken made a strange gurgling noise, something to the likes of indigestion.

"Ok, ok, I know I'm rambling. Please, just do ol' Jack this one favor. Spit me out on some land."

And it seemed like the Kraken understood and complied. It stopped and it's mouth opened up to sunshine and blue sky. It seemed as though it was frozen about a mile from a shore.

Jack took his opportunity and climbed out of the Kraken's mouth, careful to miss all the teeth. Who knew such a beast could be sentimental?

"Thank you, beastie," Jack called as he swam away. But Jack didn't notice that the beast started to sink back underwater. Who knew what it was up to?

And at the precise moment that Jack made his escape, Dani's compass spun madly in the opposite direction that they were sailing.

"That's odd," Dani said quietly to herself, right before she ran to tell Gibbs to turn the ship around.
