Will awoke to the sound of the door opening. His thoughts were confused; it was hard to remember where he was anymore. Abrafro walked over to the man slumped in the corner. " 'ere ye need to eat something and drink." He helped Will sit up a little bit more.

"Why am I here," Will questioned, "and exactly where are we, where are we headed?"

"Ye be seeing Mami Utai soon. Ye be willing to serve 'er and do what she say."

"I don't know about that," Will said, his jumbled thoughts turned to Elizabeth, "I need to find Elizabeth."

"If ye don't serve Mami willingly, then ye pretty lass – well ye will find 'er dead. Your choice. I found 'er once next time she be dead!"

Will had taken a few bites and a drink. His thoughts began to be more and more confused. "Elizabeth would be dead. Must serve Mami Utai willingly." He thought and repeated it over and over again in his head. "Elizabeth will die so must serve Mami willingly," He finally said out loud.

"Yes, you serve willingly." Abrafro had given him the drink with enough potion just to confuse him. He did not want to drug him to the point he would not be able to give of himself willingly to her. The potion would just help him realize that Abrafro would kill his love if he did not obey. Mami Utai told Abrafro how important this man was, he was the chosen – the one who would be with her for eternity.

Abrafro left Will to eat. He listened to Will repeat the same thing over and over. He just smiled as he left the room and shut the door. Up on deck the crew had dropped anchor. It was time. He had the crew prepare the boat to take him and his captive to shore.

Will did not fight when Abrafro helped him up and walked with him to the boat. "Ye be goin' to see Mami now. Ye be ready?"

"Yes, I go willingly."

"Jes willingly," Abrafro smiled.

There was silence during the ride to the shore, where four tribes man who were followers of Mami greeted them. All of the men's eyes were glazed over, but they took Will from the boat and surrounded him. He was escorted deep into the jungle. After a while they came to a village, one of the men went to the largest hut in the middle of the village. There were guards surrounding it as extra protection. He came back out of the hut and spoke to Abrafro, "Prepare him now."

"Jes," was all Abrafro said as he lead Will to a smaller hut on the outskirts of the village. There Will was undressed and was given some tan leather pants. His body was painted with strange marking and symbols. He was unsure of what was happening to him and had thoughts of escape but the threats to Elizabeth kept flashing through his mind. "I've escaped rituals before – I can do this to insure Elizabeth's safety," he thought then his mind was clouded again, "must do this willingly."

It is time. Abrafro lead Will to the large hut. The guards opened the flap and let both men pass. Will looked around. There were things hanging from the ceiling much like Tia Dalma's home. There were jars with strange ingredients along the walls. The floors were covered in fancy weaved rugs and he saw what looked to be a large bed with pillows all around. This was a home of a king or queen. It was then that he saw a woman get up off the bed. She was beautiful; her skin was golden but with strange tattoos all over her body. Her brown hair was long and down to her waist. Her loose dress went to the floor. She wore large earrings that dangled and flashed in Will's eyes as the sunlight from the door hit them. Will blinked because of them and the woman ordered the flap closed. Will continued to look at her; she wore a golden necklace and rings on almost every finger. And then he saw her eyes; they were green color he had never seen before. Her eyes were captivating to Will. Even in Will's confused mind, he knew that this is not what he had expected.

"You like what you see, William," Mami Utai asked slyly.

"You are just not what I expected."

"Ah yes but you are pleased." She said smiling at Will. "Abrafro get de needed items."

Abrafro bowed and went to retrieve what she had commanded. Mami walked around Will she dragged her hand across his chest and to his back. "You were not exactly what I expected either dear Will. Dat is what you go by, isn't it?"

"Yes, you may call me Will."

Abrafro returned with a empty vile and a dagger that's handle was laiden with precious jewels and gold. Mami Utai was still standing behind Will. She turned him around. "Will, look into my eyes and tell me – Are you coming to me willingly and do you give yourself completely to me willingly and for eternity?"

Visions of Elizabeth flashed through his mind, the thoughts of Abrafro killing her and then the same words went through his mind over and over, "I must give willingly to her."

"I give myself willingly," was all he said as a single tear came to his eye.

Then Mami Utai took the dagger and made a small cut on his hand and as it began to bleed; she collected the blood in the vile. She kissed the spot where she had used the dagger and the bleeding was gone immediately. She then cut the skin where his heart was. Will closed his eyes for a moment as his chest started to bleed a small trickle of blood. Mami Utai took the vile and collected some of the blood then she kissed the spot where she had cut him and it stopped bleeding. Will looked down at the cut then looked at her eyes. Then she took the dagger again and made a small cut on Will's forehead. Again she collected the blood and kissed the spot again and the bleeding stopped. Will started to feel weak.

"You have willingly given me your mind so that you only hear my thoughts and wishes. You have given me your hands to do as I only command you. And you have given me your heart so you will love or see no other but me." With that Mami Utai took the dagger and made a small cut above her heart. She added some of her blood to the vile then pulled Will over to kiss her wound. When he did the bleeding stopped but suddenly Will collapsed to the ground and a small white appearing orb came out of his body and went to Mami where she welcomed it into hers. Then a small black orb came from Mami and found its home in Will. "Now I have your soul and your destiny as well."

Will did not move for hours and she left him where he had collapsed. "They will not find him now. He's completely mine and soon I will rule all of de seas," she laughed and looked down at Will with a wicked smile. "Lover, you are at my command." She then turned to Abrafro, "go to Tortuga and recruit the strongest of the strong for my crew. Nothing can stop me now."

Abrafro left her hut. She looked at the vile she had collected from Will and herself. She then placed the vile in her dress near her heart. Then without even speaking she thought to herself, "It is time my love, you must awaken to do my bidding." With that command Will opened his eyes. The eyes those once Elizabeth described as her window now were black. They reflected nothing but the emptiness and darkness that he had now become.
