"Where we be heading Jack," Mr. Gibbs asked.

"We're heading across the ocean to the Mediterranean Sea then on to Greece, if all goes right," Jack answered adjusting his course.

"Jack, those be dangerous waters and a long, hard trip especially with women and children aboard. Did ye forget all the stories about the two pirate brothers, Oruc and Hizir? They control that part of the world and they not be the friendliest of pirates," Gibbs reminded Jack.

"Aye," Jack said looking at Elizabeth walking around on deck with Will at her side, "should we tell them just to give up and we'll go home and be happy without trying to see if Will is still alive."

Gibbs hung his head. He too watched as Elizabeth wiped away some tears then knelt down to wipe some of William's tears off his face. "We'll do our best captain. We all want Will back," then Gibbs turned away to give orders to the crew.

They had stocked the Pearl well and the voyage across the sea went fairly well, as well as could be expected with children on board Gibbs thought to himself. The Pearl had avoided foul weather for the most part, sure they had run into rain but the rain gave them fresh water.

Finally they were nearing the most dangerous part of their journey. They were about to go through the Straits of Gibraltar. Here they could easily be attacked by other pirates. They decided to wait until dark so perhaps the Black Pearl with her black sails may slip through undetected.

Amphirite was enjoying her now loving husband. He doted on her and their son. Her son was the happiest she had ever seen him and he was spending time with Poseidon. The same man who months ago cheated on her. Now his eyes were only directed at her.

One day while she was watching Poseidon and her son play, one of her dolphins came to her. It told her that the same ship that carried the man who they carried to the depths for her was about to enter the sea. Amphirite was furious, this could spoil everything. She was not about to let their interference take her now loving husband away.

She would only have a short time to be gone before her husband would miss her and question her about her doings. So Amphirite decided perhaps a storm might discourage them from continuing their journey.

Aboard the Pearl, Jack spotted clouds building quickly and getting very dark. "Elizabeth, Jess, go below with the children. Gibbs time to button down the hatches seem we maybe getting another bad storm."

"Aye, Captain," Gibbs started scrambling around giving the men orders and trying to calm some of their fears. This brave crew had grown nervous of large storms since the disappearance of one Will Turner. Gibbs simply had to remind them to do their job so none of them would perish.

The storm was as bad as Jack and Gibbs had feared. The Pearl was tossed to and fro. Down below Elizabeth and Jess were being thrown about with the children. William was thrown over by the table where a chair fell on him. Elizabeth promptly went to make sure he was alright. She saw blood pouring down his face. "William hold still," she told him. Jess saw what had happened and quickly grabbed a rag and brought it to Elizabeth. Elizabeth took the rag and held it over the cut. She then picked him up and took him over to the bed. She held pressure on it to stop the bleeding. "You're going to be fine son just stay still."

Jess now had her hands full as well. Between the swaying of the boat and the sight of William's blood poor Jasmine was sicker than a dog. Jess tried to comfort Jasmine between the bouts of sickness but she knew it probably wouldn't stop until the ship had settled down.

The men on deck had their hands full but they were extra careful and followed Jack's orders.

Amphirite knew she had to leave. She couldn't make Poseidon suspicious of her doings. She just hoped that she made her point to this crew. She told all of her sea creatures to bump the ship and show themselves to the crew once the storm was over they didn't have to do it for long; she just wanted to send a message. She wanted them to know that this storm had purpose; it was a warning, a warning to turn back.

Then just as quickly as it had begun, the storm ended. The crew gave a sigh of relief. Jess took Jasmine immediately to the deck for fresh air. Elizabeth walked up with William still holding the bloodied rag on his head. Jack saw them all as they reached the deck, "What happened?"

Jess explained everything to him and Jack shook his head in disbelief. He walked over to Jasmine brushing her hair back from her face, "Ye alright love?"

"Yes, daddy," then Jasmine bolted to the side of the ship to be sick once again. Jack followed her and stood by her but he was looking back at Jess, Elizabeth and William. "Daddy, why are they all gathering here?"

Jack turned to look at Jasmine not understanding what she was talking about. Then he felt a tap, more like a bump against the hull of the ship. He looked over the side to see dolphins and all manner of sea creatures bumping the Pearl as if to make her go away. Trying to send her back where she came from.

"Seems we be on the right track," Jack said to Elizabeth, "that storm was no coincidence. Someone or something is trying to stop us from going on."

"Jack we can't turn back now. We must be close," Elizabeth pleaded.

"I never said we be turning back love. I just said someone is trying to stop us. They have not succeeded," Jack said with a smile.

William looked up to Jack, "Thank you Uncle Jack. We will find father, won't we?"

"We be doing everything to find him now William. We won't give up without a fight."
