Savannah felt herself switch between realities. She could feel that some one, or something was trying to take her away, take her mind somewhere else. She was angry, enraged in fact, and screamed at whoever it was,

"Get the hell off me!" She yelled, "You cannot do this, I am Savannah Flint, and this is my reality, and this is where I am going to stay!" She fought with the force, which was still trying to take her.

Images flashed in the nothingness that was her surroundings. She saw Elizabeth crouched over her husband, Marti and Clay brutally massacred, Gibbs, Mort, Ana Maria, but then she also saw the same people again, this time watching each other's horrific deaths. Savannah was not deterred. She had seen horror before, and although she was not particularly proud of it, she had occasionally been the cause of it. She could put up with seeing death, even of people she cared about.

She felt whatever it was digging around in her mind. Invading her memory, and there was nothing she could do. Get out, get out, get out! Her mind yelled.

Jack and Rosaline flashed up. Rosaline was yelling, screaming, crying at Jack, who was yelling back. Rosaline was crying, and Jack was looking at her as if she was a pathetic piece of the landscape. Like she meant nothing. Then she saw herself, and Jack. Suddenly she realised that this was what Rosaline was seeing. She could feel… she didn't trust Jack, and Savannah with him, herself with him… Savannah's mind was beginning to spin. She put her disembodied feet firmly on the metaphorical ground, and tried to steer herself back to reality, without success. She was loosing a battle, she was actually going to loose…

"Mother! Mother, help me!" She heard the voice of her daughter and spun round. There was nothing behind her, nothing in front, but yet she still heard her, "Mother!"

"Elena?" Savannah's subconscious moved forward, but her mind pulled her back, and took control. Suddenly, she found her voice.

"Oh, you think that was a good idea do you?" She was furious, "You thought you'd involve my daughter? Threaten MY DAUGHTER?" As her anger grew, he control did as well. "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HEAD!"

"Will!" Elizabeth suddenly found herself back in the forest. Wait, I never left the forest…

"Elizabeth?"

"You aren't dead?" Will sat up, the wound on his chest stinging.

"No…?" He looked up, "Where's the…"

"Marti?" Clay picked her up off the ground, after finding he wasn't dead, and he wasn't pinned to a tree, "What? I saw…" Savannah interrupted them all,

"We've been played for fools," She told them, her hands on her hips. "It was all in our minds." Will looked indignant,

"This was all in my mind?" He indicated the dark red stain on his shirt, and the gashes underneath. Savannah looked confused.

"They were here, Savannah," Elizabeth said, "To begin with, something was here, and then everything changed…" Marti managed to claw her way out of Clay's grip,

"Where's Jack?" She demanded, brushing herself off,

"Here," Jack's voice came muffled from the shadows, and he emerged, with Rosaline in his arms. Her face was buried in his neck, and he for one looked extremely shaken up. "What the bloody hell just happened?"

"I believe that whatever these creatures were, they attempted to make out fears into reality," Savannah told him,

"Then how did you get us out of it? It was you, I presume?" Jack's arms were wrapped tightly around Rosaline's shaking form, and it looked like he wasn't prepared to let go any time soon. Savannah smiled, humourlessly,

"You know me, Captain Sparrow. I do not get frightened. I get angry."

"Well, it's a bloody good job ye did." Clay said, "Or they'd have had us all."

"Yes," Ana Maria agreed, "We owe you our lives, Savannah." Savannah looked awkward,

"Yes, well. So do a lot of people. But then, I am responsible for many deaths, so it's all in the aid of tipping the scale."

"Of course." Marti smiled at Ana, who just shook her head knowingly. Jack spoke up, looking impatient,

"So if those bloody great things are still around here somewhere, would some one care to tell me what you're all doin' stood round here?" Jack's entire life had become spilt in two different sections. He was captain, he had to get to Bill Turner, and get his crew back safely, so he should be leading them forward. But he didn't want to lead with Rosaline with him. He beckoned Gibbs over to him and transferred Rosaline to his arms. "Anythin' happens to her an' I'll have yer head," He told him, before taking his place at the front of the group with Will, who was closely followed by Elizabeth, still shaken by what had just happened. To be quite honest, every one was still shaken by what had happened, and by what they had seen. Clay stuck close to Marti and kept watching the sky. She noticed this, and tried to put Ana Maria between them, to avoid Clay. Not here, and not now. She thought, I have plenty of time for flirting and… other things, when I'm not fighting for mine and my friends lives.

Conch, the cabin boy was suddenly feeling very young. To be truthful, he was only twelve years old, although he looked tall for his age. He had been terrified by what he had seen. He had been against at least ten of the griffin like creatures, and had been trying to fight them off, unsuccessfully. Every time he looked up, he was trying to save a different member of the crew. And every one of them looked at him as if they had already given up hope because there was no way a cabin boy could save them. And every time, they had been right. He had failed.

Savannah seemed to be the only one not profoundly affected, although this was not entirely true. She was good at putting on a front, good at pretending. She was irritated and annoyed by the fact that her mind had been so easily broken. They, whoever they were, had been able to access her thoughts. They would have been able to find Elena, to get to her. Savannah would never admit it, but the thought that she could not protect her daughter, was the one thing that truly terrified her.

Jack used his sword to slice his way through the vines that hung down, so conveniently just in their path. His face was set, determined that he was going to get his crew through this, and out again. Alive.

He stopped his thoughts from wandering to what had happened, to Rosaline, and decided that if he was going to survive, he couldn't let himself get distracted.

Well, thanks a lot guys. I got some real nice reviews tonight, which totally made up for that one the other day, so thank you very much.

MBM, Nachos eh? Each to their own, lol. I'm glad you like the story, and don't worry, I say cool far too many times as well. Keep reading dude!

Rae, thank you for your email, I can't tell you how much I appreciated it, but hey, I don't let flames get me down, and I am so going to be reading your new HP fic when it's up, or is it already? I'll check when I get chance. Ah, well, as it would be very cool to kill some main characters, if I did, it wouldn't be Will or Marti, I love them both too much! Perhaps I'll get bold in some future fics, or even future chapters of this fic, we shall see! But for now, you can rest easy.

Ladyshadow, I love your Rum and Roses thingy, can I use it in one of my future chapters at some point? Keep reading, this is going to be a long story for you if you've just started it! Thanks for the review.

Vanessa, dude, I hated writing that chapter! But hey, at least I made it better. I know they crossed from England, but the thing was, I have written in earlier chapters that they were in England when Marti found them, and Ana said at one point that Jack had sailed her boat to 'England' and sunk it, when it was really Jamaica. Anyways, I've changed it now, so alls well. Don't think this story will be all happy cuddles till the end! If the evil dream sequence made you hate it, then there are worse things on their way! *Pauses and gets sudden image of losing reviewer* But it will be alright in the end!

I think.

Marianela, dude, are you and Lady shadow the same person? I don't know, I'm confused by my review lists! Anyway, thank if you aren't and thanks again if you are!

Love you all,

Savvy Z
