Shinobi of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Medallion
By Yami a.k.a Rachel
Chapter Five
On their way to the Isla De Muerta, Sasuke began to slowly wake up. His eye's were slow in opening. He winced as he tried to look up. He had a throbbing headache. He was eventually able to look up to see that he wasn't alone. Yami sat right in front of him tied to a chair just like he was. He looked over to the other end of the office and noticed Elizabeth. She was in the current state Yami was in. He looked back over at Yami. He thought about waking her up and trying to create some kind of plan to get the three out of there, but she looked so serene, so calm and peaceful.
As the boat hit the side of a reef, the chairs tipped to the side a bit. This was enough to wake Yami up. Sasuke watched as her eyes fluttered open. Just like he did, she squinted in pain and tried to rub her head. She was fully awake when she realized that she was tied up and could barely move. She apparently didn't notice him b/c she began to try and wriggle free and was startled when she heard Sasuke said "It's no use Yami." She looked up at him and whispered "Sasuke!" Sasuke smiled warmly and said "I tried to stop them, but they ended up getting me too."
Yami smiled sadly and said "It's alright Sasuke. Barbossa is going to be going back to Jack anyway." Sasuke looked surprised and asked "Why?" Before she could answer, Elizabeth answered for him. "Because Will has the medallion, not me." Sasuke looked over at her, but Yami couldn't because she wasn't facing her direction. Yami looked surprised and said "What?! When did he get it!?" Elizabeth looked sad and said "I finally gave it back to him. He was upset to know that he used to be a pirate, or could have been one if I hadn't taken the medallion the day my father found him." Even though she couldn't see her, Yami could tell that Elizabeth felt bad for what she had done. "You were only trying to protect him Elizabeth." "I know." She said sadly.
Sasuke kept staring at Elizabeth and eventually asked "It's not your blood they even need is it? It's Will's." Elizabeth looked up at him and nodded sadly. "So then Barbossa will be going back." "Unless Jack and the others get to him first." Yami said, thinking. The three were silent and eventually, Barbossa came in the office and said "Time to go you three." The three looked up at him. Yami and Elizabeth in fear, and Sasuke, who was having a hard time looking at him to begin with, gave Barbossa the famous Uchiha death glare. Surprisingly, the pirate took a step back as he watch Sasuke's eyes turn red. 'This boy's not human, but I can't really talk I guess.' He thought.
Sasuke was dead silent as Barbossa untied him from the chair and raised him out of his seat. He was quick in tying his wrists together. Pintel did the same to Yami and Ragetti to Elizabeth. Barbossa said "Pintel, try and remove the medallion from Miss. Koi's neck please." Pintel nodded and tried to unclasp the necklace. Try as he might, the pirate could not get the medallion off. All the while Yami and Sasuke were staring at each other. Yami had an expression of emotional pain while Sasuke was angry for not being able to save them earlier. Pintel was still trying to get the necklace off when Barbossa said "Leave it man, we'll figure something out when we get to the chest."
Barbossa walked Sasuke out of the office as did Pintel, Yami, Ragetti, and Elizabeth. Barbossa and his crew sailed across the water in separate smaller boats and walked onto the island. They all eventually stopped in a room that was filled with gold. Yami and Sasuke had never saw so much gold in their life. "And you guys stole all this?" Yami asked. Barbossa said sourly "Aye, that we did." Yami looked over at Sasuke to see him looking at something. She looked over and saw the stone chest.
Once the crew returned all the items and gold they had stole, Barbossa and his two pirates took Sasuke, Yami, and Elizabeth up to the stone chest. The rest of the crew were shouting cries of victory at finally being able to lift the curse, or so they thought anyway. Barbossa looked around and said "Boys, we finally made it!" More shouts came from the crew. "We returned every last bit o' gold we stole, and brought it back!" He then looked at Yami and Elizabeth and pointed to their medallions "Save for these two." The crew continued their shouting, which was really starting to get on Sasuke's nerves.
Barbossa looked around and said "But there is a slight problem." The crew grew quiet. 'Finally.' Sasuke thought. "We still can't get the black medallion off Miss. Koi's neck. So what shall we cursed pirates be doing about this?" The crew were making motions of cutting their heads off, suggesting that they detach Yami's head from her shoulders. Yami's eyes got wide and her fear increased tenth fold. She looked over at Sasuke to see him glaring at the crew. And slowly as every crew member looked at Sasuke, they all quieted and were motionless.
Barbossa couldn't believe what he was seeing, his crew were not only afraid of Yami, but Sasuke too. Of course he couldn't really blame them for being afraid of Sasuke. That death glare even made him tremble slightly. He looked around and said "So what shall it be men?" This time, the crew stayed silent, not wanting to see Sasuke's glare another time. Yami exhaled a breath that she didn't know she had been holding. She leaned forward slightly, she had an idea. Through half-lidded eyes, she looked over at Sasuke and winked ever so slightly.
Sasuke, catching on to what she was up to, tried to get himself as ready as he could for their escape. Barbossa and the others were looking at Yami in confusion as she fell limp against the stone chest. Of course this was all fake, but the pirates didn't know this. While Barbossa and his crew were distracted by Yami, Sasuke kicked Barbossa hard in the stomach. The pirate was pushed back slightly, not expecting the blow. Yami was quick in getting up and used all her body weight to push Pintel down the small hill that the stone chest was sitting on. Elizabeth pulled the same move with Ragetti.
"Lets go!" Sasuke shouted and the three ran out of the cave. For being tied up like they were, they were doing rather well at putting distance between the pirates. But the undead crew were just too fast for them. Elizabeth was the first to be caught. Sasuke and Yami could hear her screams of alarm. Yami was next to be caught. "Come here poppet!" Pintel shouted as he grabbed her roughly. He then took out his pistol and held it to her throat. Sasuke turned around and froze when he saw the pistol against Yami's neck. "Get over here, or I blow her head off." Pintel said warningly.
"Don't listen to him Sasuke, run!" She was slapped by Pintel. "Quiet poppet, this is his decision." Sasuke had long done made his decision. He slowly walked up to him, his face expressionless. Pintel smirked and said "Good choice ch-" but was silenced by Sasuke's jab to the stomach. He then kicked the gun out of the pirates grip. "Go!" Elizabeth shouted. Sasuke and Yami stayed put. "What are you waiting for?!" She shouted. The two were silent, until Yami said "Not without you." Barbossa chuckled softly and said "How touching. Get em'!" Sasuke and Yami started running as fast as they could. Up ahead of the tunnel, they could see another ship coming.
"It's the Interceptor!" Yami shouted. It was at this time that she was yet again caught, only this time it was by Barbossa. She screamed in surprise. Sasuke stopped and turned around to see a sword pointed at his throat. Barbossa smiled and said "I not be makin' the same mistake Pintel did." Sasuke glared at him and Barbossa said "That only goes so far boy. The same trick don't work on me twice." "Oh darn." Yami said sarcastically. Barbossa frowned at her and said "I wouldn't be talkin' missy."
"Aye! Barbossa mate! I'm back!" Barbossa looked up to see Jack making his way toward him and his crew. Barbossa rolled his eyes and said "What ya be wantin' now Jack? Ye can't have the boy and ladies if that's what yer after." Jack finally stopped beside Sasuke and said "Well that was part of my mission, but only half of it." Barbossa yet again rolled his eyes and said "And I suppose the other half of your mission is to retrieve the Pearl?" "Your a smart pirate Captain Barbossa!" Jack said happily. He then looked over at Elizabeth and back at Barbossa. "You do know that's fake right?" He asked.
Barbossa looked confused and said "What are ya talkin' about Jack?" Jack looked surprised and said "So you didn't know?!" He walked over to Elizabeth and held the medallion in his hand. "This thing right here is fake mate. You tellin' me you didn't know that?" Everyone looked from Jack, to Barbossa, who looked really confused. When everyone was distracted, both Sasuke and Jack sprung into action. Both Yami and Sasuke rammed Barbossa into the tunnel wall and made a run for the Interceptor. Jack hit the pirate that was holding Elizabeth captive and her helped her run back to the Interceptor as well.
"Don't let them get away!" Barbossa yelled as he picked himself off the ground. The crew ran after the four, trying to catch up to them. "Get over here mate!" Jack shouted as he ran over to Sasuke. While the two were running, Jack took out a pocket knife and cut the rope that had been binding his wrists together. "Now, get your girl and I'll get Miss. Swann and we can get the blazes outta here!" Sasuke nodded and came up behind Yami. She screamed when she was picked up because she thought that the pirates had got her yet again, but relaxed when she saw that it was Sasuke. The four finally got to the ship and were helped aboard.
Of course they didn't come alone. Right behind them was almost every member of Barbossa's crew. The crew stepped aside as Barbossa made his way onto the ship. Sasuke sat Yami down as did Jack with Elizabeth. Elizabeth ran over to Will and stood beside him. Barbossa looked at Jack and his crew. "Now what ye be talkin' about when ye say that medallion isn't real?" He asked. Jack looked from the captain to Elizabeth and Will. "Did I say it was fake? I'm sorry mate, I lied." Barbossa was even more confused, as was everyone else. Elizabeth thought 'What is he planning, of course it's fake.'
Barbossa rolled his eyes and said "I don't like to be playin' games Jack. Just hand over the boy and the ladies and we'll be on our way." Jack smiled sadly at him and said "I'm so sorry mate, but I can't be doin' that." Barbossa frowned and said "Why can't ye make this simple Jack?" Jack looked from Barbossa, over to Will. He then looked back over at Barbossa and said "Because I know whose blood you really need." Barbossa was more lost now then ever. "What's in your head Jack? I have the right people." Jack shook his head and said "No you don't mate. Trust me on this one." Elizabeth was looking at Jack like he had gone crazy.
Barbossa noticed the look on Elizabeth's face and said to Jack "You're telling the truth?" Jack looked at him and said "I tend to do that rather a lot really and yet people are always surprised." Barbossa wasn't listening and continued "So then whose blood it be that we need?" Jack looked thoughtful for a moment, but before he could answer, someone answered for him. "My blood." Everyone turned to Will. "Will?!" Elizabeth whispered harshly. Will took a few steps toward Barbossa. "And who might you be boy?" Barbossa asked.
Will stared at him for a few minutes, then said "My name William Turner, Bootstrap Bill Turner was my father. His blood runs in my veins." Ragetti pointed a finger at Will and shouted "It's a spittin' image of old Bootstrap himself!" Barbossa stared at Will for a long time before saying "I take it ye has the medallion?" Will silently took out the medallion from one of his pockets and showed it to Barbossa. Barbossa stared at the medallion. He then turned to Jack. "So now can ye be giving me the boys and lady?" Jack smiled and said "Their all your's mate!"
Everyone looked surprised at Jack's statement, which caused Sasuke to once again, be bounded at the wrists. "Jack!" Elizabeth shouted. Jack ignored her though. He knew what he was doing. Yami and Sasuke were once again in the caption of Barbossa and his crew. Now, this time though, Will was the one to come with them, not Elizabeth. Will didn't fight off the crewmen as they tied him up as they did Sasuke and Yami. Sasuke and Yami, who didn't know of Jack and Will's plan were too shocked to do any resisting. 'How could he?' Yami thought. 'Something's not right.' Sasuke thought.
Elizabeth looked from Jack to Will and thought 'I hope this works.' With the three of them tied up, Barbossa said "Well Jack, I thank ye kindly." Jack smiled and said "Ya welcome mate." Barbossa grinned and said "But ya still don't get the Pearl." Jack frowned and watched as Barbossa and his crew walked off with their three captives. Once the lot of them were gone, Jack turned around and said "Glad you caught on darling, otherwise that might not have worked." Elizabeth frowned a little and said "I only caught on because Will asked for the fake medallion." The rest of the crew finally figured out Jack's plan.
Jack smiled his famous smile and said "But you caught on all the same love." Elizabeth looked somewhat annoyed at Jack's happy attitude. It was at this time that Gibbs asked "So then what happens now Jack?" Jack looked at his crew and then at Elizabeth. Without looking back at his crew, he said "We're making a stop at Port Royal." Elizabeth smiled slightly and the rest of the crew seemed a bit nervous. Kakashi asked "Where is that? Add why is it that it seems such a bad thing to go there?" Gibbs answered "Aye, because the British Royal Navy is out looking for Jack, and if we come up to them asking for help, all their going to do is hang us all." Naruto rubbed his neck at the thought of being hanged. He then said "Who votes for a plan B?"
