Ch. 14

"Ello beasty." We said, both wearing an identical smirk on our faces. We went up to the railing, ready to strike, even though we both knew it was the end. We raised our swords at the same time, just as the Kraken captured us with its mouth, and took the Black Pearl down to the depths with it.

I honestly can't tell you what happened next, somewhere between fighting and getting eaten by the Kraken, I had blackened out. All that I know is that when I came to, I was laying on the deck, of the Pearl. I sat up and placed a hand on my head, feeling it spinning out of control. I didn't try to stand up, I knew I wouldn't be to. I closed my eyes, and rubbed my head a bit, before I opened them again and took a look around. From what I could see from my place on deck, I could see nothing, everything was white.

"Where are we?" I asked quietly, not even knowing where Jack was. I closed my eyes again, ready to fall back onto my back when a hand appeared before my face. The only reason I knew that was because of the wind that flew against my face, in this other dead area. I placed my hand in the offering hand and opened my eyes, seeing Jack. "Welcome to Davy Jones locker luv." He said pulling me up, I knew I didn't have my balance back so I had use Jack as a leaning pole before I could stand on my own.

I gave a small smile as I looked around. "So, we've got the Pearl, and no where ta go hm?" I said quietly, now taking a better look at where we were. For miles around us, as far as the eye could see, we were surrounded by sand. I turned back to Jack, and saw that he was staring at me intensely. I tilted my head to the side at him.

"What?" I asked curiously. He didn't answer right away, but I could tell what he was thinking. I took a few steps back away from Jack and shook my head. "No Jack." I said sternly. With every step back that I took, he would counter it with a step towards me.

"Why luv? It's just you n' me. Me n' you. Us. Here on the Pearl. We can do what e'er we want." He said still smirking. I shook my head again. "No Jack, we can't." I said, making a quick side step so I didn't hit the railing. I may have feelings for him, but I took pride in not selling myself short of something that could be a onetime thing. I forgot where the stairs were though, and didn't notice them until the back of my feet hit them and I fell backwards. Before I could hit the rest of the steps though, Jack had caught me and sat me down on the steps. He sat down beside me and placed his head on his hand. "Now luv, why don' ya tell Ol' Jackie, why we can't do what e'er we want hm?" he said, the look in his eyes still having that mischievous gleam in them.

I shook my head a bit and leaned back against the steps. "Cause I got more pride than to just let myself get caught up in a onetime thing." I said, then smirked a bit. "B'sides, I won't get into anything unless I got a ring on my finger." I looked over at Jack to see a thoughtful look on his face, which surprised me, to say the least.

"A ring eh?" Jack asked to confirm that. "Aye a ring." I said and got up again. I walked away from Jack and went below deck without another word.

Everything was how it was before the attack of the Kraken. I went down to my cabin and walked in. "Everything's how it was before..." I whispered and rubbed my head again. I got into my hammock and curled up in it. I didn't know what I was going to do, I didn't even know if we have food, or if we needed anyway. I closed my eyes then, just trying to let everything sink in and sink through to me that this was really happening.

I must have dozed off or something because the next thing I knew, I was no longer in my hummock, but on Jack's bed. I lazily sat up, rubbing my eyes, trying to figure out why I was here. I got off the bed, thankful that I still had my usual clothing on, and that he hadn't tried anything with me, as I slept. I walked out of the cabin and looked around the ship, then walked over to Jack who was at the helm. He must have noticed me walking towards him cause he jumped down the stairs to meet me.

"Sleep well luv?" he asked, wrapping an arm around my shoulders, walking us up to the helm again. "Aye, though, I don't remember doing so." I said, not really caring that I was leaning against Jack's shoulder.

"At least the company is good here." He said, and I could tell he was wearing his usual grin, but at the moment, I really could care less about it. "Why did you move me from my hummock?" I asked curiously, and looked at him from the corner of my eye. Jack didn't remove the grin from his face as he answered. "We'd both get lonely without someone else a'ound luv. So we might as well just become roommates."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes though, and smirked at that. "Ya jus' want ta bed me." I stated blandly. Looking offended Jack stopped walking and faced me with a serious look on his face. "That's not true Gabby." He said, placing his hands on my shoulders, giving them a bit of a squeeze. "'ave I done anythin', anythin' at all that shows that I don' care Gabby?" he said looking me straight in the eyes.

"You have done a lot of things that should ha'e made me leave the Pearl Jack. But I'm still here." I said quietly, not able to break eye contact with him. "Aye, yer still here, and yer still in me arms." He said quietly, and like time, and time again kissed me.

Most would assume that Jack's kisses would be rough, forceful, and lustful, but they weren't, that's what I could feel as I kissed him back. They were tender, passionate, and surprisingly sweet, something you wouldn't expect from Jack actually. I kissed him back slowly, placing my hand on his shoulders. I was also surprised that Jack didn't pull me into him again right away. Instead, he ran his hands down my arms to my elbows and gripped them there for a bit before moving to my hips, keeping a secure grip on them. It wasn't long before we separated our lips for some air. We stared at each other, not saying anything, both of us knew that there was more going on than what we were both letting on. We leaned in again and once more we kissed, moulding out lips together the kiss was deepened and our bodies were soon pressed together.

If we ever got out of Davy Jones locker, I knew that things were going to be a lot different than I originally thought they would be.

I don't know how much time had passed since we arrived in Davy Jones locker, but I was sure that I had officially lost my mind now. What I do know though is that what I was seeing in front of me, was not something I wanted to ever see. I don't know when it happened, but there started to become more than just one of us, and at that moment, I watching one of my clones? With one of Jack's clones, heavily, making out on the bridge. I covered my eyes a bit and turned away. On other parts of the ship our clones were either working, flirting, making out, or hiding away somewhere doing lord knows what. I went over to Jack who had just shot his own clone for eating a peanut and poked his shoulder.

He turned to look at me with a face that clearly said what. I shook my head, with a smirk and just laid a soft kiss on his cheek before walking away. Sometime in our time here, we had come to a medium with each other, and how much intimacy we showed. No, I've never let him bed me, but I knew that we were getting close to that. I looked around again, and saw nothing once more, I rubbed my eyes and blinked a few times before looking over at Jack again. He was 'talking' to the crew, that didn't exist. I went over to him again and took his hand, pulling him away.

"Leave 'em alone Jack, they're trying their best." I said with a roll of my eyes. Jack didn't say anything, just wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close to him and kissing me tenderly. "Then maybe I should be punished eh luv?" He said with a devious smirk. I shook my head at him and pulled away. "No, I think we should try to find some way to move the Pearl." I said with my own smirk and walked over to the railing, grabbing a rope and slid down to the white ground. Jack soon followed me, sighing heavily. We both knew that it was almost a complete loss, to try and drag the Pearl in the direction she was facing, but we still tried.

We walked away until Jack smelled something, we looked down to see a rock. Jack picked it up and took a lick, then threw it away since it was inedible. We walked away to the bow of the Pearl, where there was a rope that we could try and pull with. We paused in our steps to see the rock again. This time I went over and picked it up, it felt odd in my hands, like it wasn't actually a rock. I shrugged the thought off and chucked it. Once it landed I watched it with weary eyes like Jack did, as it started to crack open. Legs, pinchers and eyes sprouted from the rock and I looked over at Jack.

"It's not a rock." I said, but realized that I was by myself. I walked over to Jack who was trying to pull the Pearl by himself. I grabbed some rope and started to help, even though I knew it was pointless. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't budge it. We looked at each other, the let ourselves fall onto the ground, and just laid there. "Are we crazy yet?" I asked Jack, starring up at the unmoving sky around us. "We've always been crazy luv, I don't think we can get any worse." Jack replied grabbing my hand that was near his. I let out a sigh and looked over at him a bit. "That's what I thought." I said dryly.

We continued to watching the sky and until a shadow passed over us. We sat up and looked at each other then back at the ship as we watched it pass us. We then looked at each other once more before running after the Pearl and getting on it. We climbed the mast and stood up watching as the scenery started to change and the sound of the sea could be heard. Jack had an arm around my waist to keep me steady we went down a hill. A smirk had edged up onto my face, as the Pearl went into the water. We jumped off the Pearl and walked back to land where, low and behold people were, and they were running over to us. I shook my head as Jack started to scold Gibbs about the 'crew' on the ship. I chuckled a bit and smiled, running over to my brother.

"Will!" I said, flinging my arms around him happily. Taken by surprise, my brother took a moment longer until he wrapped his arms around me tightly. "Are you alright Gab?" he asked worriedly, and placed a hand over my head. "Besides the fact that I think I've lost my mind, I'm fine." I said with a laugh and shooed his hand away. We walked over back to Jack, who was now talking to Barbossa. I let go of Will, already knowing where this was going to. "Don't mind Jack... he's lost it more than I 'ave." I whispered to him with a grin.

When Jack came over to Will, he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me tightly to him. "You came here because you need my help with a distress damsel or a damsel in distress. Either one." He said tightening his arms around me. I saw the look on Will's face and just shook my head at him. When Will answered no to Jack, he brightened up, saying that then they were in fact not right in front of us. "They are though Jack." I whispered to him. It was only when Elizabeth came forward that he pulled me with him and went over to Gibbs, making sure that it was right, that we were in the locker. When Gibbs confirmed it, he loosened his grip around me, and turned up to the others.

I left Jacks arms and went over to Gibbs, having an idea what was going to happen. "So, can you let me know what we've missed?" I asked, rubbing the back of my neck. Gibbs nodded and started telling me what has been happening, from when they escaped the Pearl to Dalma's house, and how they went to Singapore to get a ship and crew, to how they got here. In that time frame, Jack was being told what has been happening.

"I leave you people alone for just a minute and look what happens, everything's gone to pot!" he said and grabbed my hand, pulling me away, before turning around once more. Saying why should he sail with any of them, when four tried to kill him, and one succeeded. He looked directly at Elizabeth, as did Will, and myself. I tsked a bit and shook my head. Jack walked towards them quite amused, dragging me along.

He then went down the line saying who he would take with him. My brother and Elizabeth were out, as were Barbossa, Dalma, Ragetti, and Pintel. He stopped in front of the men for Singapore who said that they went with the highest bidder, which was Jack, since he had a ship. But of course, Barbossa always had a way to get what he wanted, he had the way to go.

Once we were on the ship, I grabbed my effects and placed my knives and daggers on me. Will came down to my cabin and closed the door, wanting to talk. I patted one of the barrels in the room and sat on the other, tilting my head a bit.

"What's wrong brother? It's not like you to be so gloomy." I said softly.
