A/N: As I promised, 19. However, it's probably going to be the last chapter. I'm not sure. I need people to continue to review because I need to know someone out there is enjoying it. Thanks to those who have been loyal.

At World's End: Chapter 19

"What is it that you and I need to discuss, Barbossa?" Jack calmly asked while sliding the blade away with his finger. "Other than your current existence. Because I am very busy getting reacquainted with Dani."

"I think the whole ship knew that," he said, looking her up and down. "The business of Davy Jones' heart brings us together once again."

"I thought Tia Dalma brought you back to life to help us find Jack."

"She was all part of the plan."

Jack stepped forward, in front of Dani. "You're in with Jones."

"Quick, everyone, ol' Jack got it. Would you like some applause?"

"What do you need the heart for?"

"Jones has granted me immortality if I can bring the heart back to him. Immortality that doesn't involve losing all my senses or turning into a skeleton in the moonlight."

"Well…" Jack thought. "We'll get Jones' heart back, mate."

"You were always a coward, Jack. I've always liked that about you," Barbossa told Jack and the crowd that had gathered. He looked around then stalked off to the bow of the ship.

In a cabin later, Elizabeth, Will, Jack and Dani discussed their options.

"Do you even know where to look, Jack?" Dani asked.

"Norrington."

"What does he have to do with anything?"

"He stole the chest to save us. But now as I look back, it probably wasn't."

"It could still be on Isla Cruces."

"But wouldn't they have found the heart there? All of his men were there. And they had taken off after James." Elizabeth asked.

"Most likely, but wouldn't they have killed Norrington as well?" asked Will, who frowned at her use of the former-commodore's first name.

"He's not dead, though," Dani finally spoke up. "I just made all of the Commodores coats and one for Beckett."

"They must have the heart," Jack told them.

"What would they need Jones' heart for?"

"Whoever has that heart controls the sea. And that is why Jones is so desperate to get it back. We need it the most, though."

"So what's our plan?" Will asked.

"We need to steal the heart back from Beckett and the rest of the Royal Navy."

"And how do you suppose we do that?" Elizabeth asked.

"You must have misunderstood me earlier. I am not speaking to you, savvy?" Jack said, turning to Dani.

"I should tell you something, Jack."

"Yes, love?"

"Mr. Norrington asked me to marry him."

"What!" Elizabeth and Jack yelled at the same time.

"Why?" Elizabeth asked.

"I don't know, " Dani answered. She really didn't know why he asked her to marry him, but was more than a little angry at the disbelief in both Jack and Elizabeth's eyes. "You don't believe me?" She said to Elizabeth.

"I just find it a little hard to believe that James chose you."

"And what is that supposed to mean?" Jack stood up, enraged.

"She's a pirate!"

"You're a pirate, as much as she is!" But then Jack stopped. He turned away for a moment before giving Will instructions. "Tell Gibbs to set us on course for Port Royal."

"Do you have a plan Jack?"

"Of course I do. I know exactly how we are going to get Jones' heart back." He said, looking straight at Danielle. "But you're probably not going to like it, love."
