Mr. Gibbs led the way to the Pearl, Elizabeth, Andy and Tiffany close behind. I ended up in the rear end of our little group. I didn't mind though I was to busy taking in the sights. Suddenly I felt something tugging on my pant leg; I looked down and saw a small monkey dressed in pirate garb. "Barbossa's monkey!" I breathed. As soon as Jack the monkey noticed I had seen him, he ran off down the street. I tried to look for Elizabeth and the others but to no avail; they were nowhere to be seen. I looked back towards Jack and saw to my surprise that he had stopped. He ran back to me, tugged on my pant leg again, and pointed. "Do you want me to follow you?" I asked. He nodded and ran off down the street. I tore off after him not having anywhere else to go.
Jack led me down the streets of Tortuga always staying within my sight. This hardened my thoughts into certainty that this monkey was leading me somewhere. But to safety or a trap I knew not. He turned into a side street, I followed skidding to a stop as I saw a man lying on the ground; the monkey was pointing to the man. Jack went up to the man's head and quietly chattered in his ear. "Jack? Jack is that you?" The man mumbled weakly. The monkey made a noise that sounded like an affirmative. "Did ye find someone to help us?" Jack made another affirmative sound.
