Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Chapter six: Davy Jones and Tortuga
Jack, Will, Destiny, and Gibbs stood at the rail. "That's the Flying Dutchman," Will asked. Destiny raised her eye bows.
"She doesn't look like much."
"Isn't that the truth," Destiny muttered.
"Neither do you... do not underestimate her," Jack said, then elbowed Gibbs.
"Must've run afoul of the reef," Gibbs said trying to lighten things up.
"What's your plan," Jack asked.
"I row over, search the ship until I find your bloody key.""And if there are crewmen?"
"I cut down anyone in my path," he said then walked off.
"I like it. Simple, easy to remember."
Will climbed down to a row boat near the ship. "Your chariot awaits you. Ahahaha," Ragitte said.
"Oi! If you do have to get captured, just say Jack Sparrow sent you to settle his debt. Might save your life," Jack yelled.
"Bye-bye Will," Destiny said waving to him.
"Douse the lamps," Jack said to the crew. Then he remembered what Bootstrap said before he left, "if Jones finds out you have a daughter, she'll be dead first."
"Luv, I want you to go in me cabin and stay there until I say you can come out," Jack said pushing her to the cabin.
"What did I ever do," she said turning around.
"Just get in there."
"Ok, ok," she said opening the cabin door.
"And stay here no matter what you hear, and try not to make any noise."
"Why, what's going on or going to happen if I do?"
"Would you just stay in there and ask questions later," then he shut the door.
She just stood there thinking with a lot of questions running in her mind.
"I wonder if this has to do any thing with that Davy Jones guy?" Then she heard a thump, and more thumps after that, making her almost loose her balance. "What was that." She went to the door and leaned up a it.
"You've been Captain of the Black Pearl for thirteen years. That was our agreement," she heard a voice say. She looked through the key hole. "Is that suppose to be Davy Jones. No wonder why she left."
"One soul is not equal to another."
"Aha! So we've establish my proposal is sound in principle, now we're just haggling over price."
"Price?"
"Just how many souls, do you think, my soul is worth?"
"One hundred souls. Three days."
"You're a darling, mate. Send me back the boy, I'll get started right off."
"Why can't they hurry up so I can get out of here," Destiny leaning agents the door.
"Have you not met Will Turner? He's noble, heroic, a terrific soprano. Worth at least four, maybe three and a half. And did I happen to mention... he's in love. With a girl. Due to be married. Betrothed. Dividing him from her and her from him would only be half as cruel as actually allowing them to be joined in holy matrimony. Aye?"
"I keep the boy. Ninety-nine souls-ah. But I wonder, Sparrow... can you live with this? Can you condemn an innocent man - a friend - to a lifetime of servitude in your name while you roam free?"
"Yep. I'm good with it."
"Oh Jack, being so selfish. Well at least Will wont be with Elizabeth." Just then the door opened and she fell to the floor. She looked up to see a hammer-head, man, thing.
"Well, you could've at least knocked."
"On your feet," he said grabbing her arm and pushing her in front of Davy.
"And who might this be," he asked. Jack looked like he was going to faint.
"Well, I'm Destiny spa….," Jack cut her off.
"Spartan. Destiny Spartan. She's my aunt's uncle's cousin's fiancé's Daughter."
"Well sorry if your ashamed of me being your daughter," she said crossing her arms over her chest.
"Daughter-ah," Davy asked. He looked at them both, then started to laugh and so did his crew.(Davy's crew just laughs because he's laughing, everybody knows that)
"Daughter eh. I can see the resemblance very clear. High check bones, tan skin, but she's a little bit darker. Same eye color."( I know I said she has hazel eyes in the 1st story, but her eye color changes)"And look, almost the same cloths." He continued to laugh.
"Did you know Jack, I would have killed her first and made you watch, then kill you next?"
Jack just nodded.
"But since we had our little deal, I wont-ah. But remember three days- ah, if have no souls, both of you will be dead, then he left.
"You better come up with those souls," Destiny said.
"Don't worry luv, I got it covered."
"Ah, Tortuga," Gibbs said.
Jack wiped his hand on Gibbs. "Tortuga."
Pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
"And what makes you think you're worthy to crew the Black Pearl," Destiny asked.
"Truth be told, I never sailed a day in me life. I figure I should get out and see the world while I'm still young," he said. Destiny and Gibbs looked at each other.
"You'll do. Make your mark. Next."
"My wife run off with my dog, and I'm drunk for a month, and I don't give an ass rat's if I live or die."
"You'll defiantly do," Destiny said.
"Next!"
"I know what I want, I know what I want, I know what I want," Jack muttered in the back.
"Me have one arm and a bum leg."
"It's the crow's nest for you."
"Next," Destiny said.
"Ever since I was little, I've always wanted to sail the seas. Forever."
"Sooner than you think. Sign the roster."
"Thanks very much," the sailor said.
"Next," Gibbs said. The person walked up.
"You look no more then 15," Gibbs said.
"What's your name boy?"
"Damon Williams," he said.(new character I was talking about a chapter ago) "I'm a really hard worker. My father used to sail before he got killed, and he taught me how to sail and work around a ship."
"Mmm, what do you think Destiny," Gibbs asked. "Destiny?"
Destiny didn't answer. She was to busy thinking about this guy. "I think I've died and gone to heaven. Damon Williams, Damon Williams, Damon Williams, such a beautiful name.(if you have seen the movie "Funny girl", then you know the look on Destiny's face.)
"Destiny," Gibbs asked.
"Um, what….oh yeah, yeah, yeah, he's fine.
Perfect, just perfect."
"Alright then, make your mark," Gibbs said.
"Women's and their men," Jack said.
Destiny turned around. "Pirates and their whores," she said and got up to get some rum.
"Keep an eye on that one," Jack said to Gibbs.
"Aye."
"And what's your story."
"My story,' the man asked. Gibbs nodded.
"It's exactly the same as your story, just one chapter behind. I chased a man across the seven seas." Jack closed his compass to look for a spot to hide. "The pursuit cost me my crew, my commission, and my life," Destiny herd the man say. He grabbed a rum bottle down off the table, and took a swig.
"Commodore?"
"No, not anymore, weren't you listening?" Gibbs looked uncomfortable. "I nearly had you all off Tripoli. I would've, if not for the hurricane." Jack took part of a plant and hid behind it while he started to walk. Destiny put down her mug and went behind Jack.
"Lord. You didn't try to sail through it?"
"So do I make your crew or not? You haven't said where you're going." Gibbs shifted a little.
"Some where nice," then he tipped over the table knocking Gibbs down, making the whole place quite.
"So am I worthy to serve under Captain Jack Sparrow," Norrington said with his arms out. Jack and Destiny tried to inconspicuously walk away with the plant clutched in front Jack and Destiny behind Jack clutching to his coat. "Or should I just kill you now," he said pointing his pistol at them.
Jack moved his head on the other side of the wood column with Destiny following his every move.
"Your hired," Jack said.
"Sorry. Old habits and all that." He was about to shoot when two sailors raise up his arm.
"Easy sailor!"
"Time to go," Jack said
"Aye," Gibbs and Destiny said.
They made their way upstairs. Jack ducked down to grab a hat in time before a bottle hit him. Another hat fell in Jacks hands as a man punched another man. Jack took the hat off and put it on another person and tried another one on. Destiny reached for it and put it on her head.
(sorry if this is confusing)
Jack took another hat.
"Thanks, mate." Jack touched the pirate's shoulder and the man fell off his perch on the railing. "Ooh." Jack took the hat he took off him onto another being carried off to be thrown off the second floor. They stopped and look at Jack. Jack put the hat on the man, then he stepped aside. "Carry on." then they through him over.
so how did you like it. I know that wasn't a good ending, but I had to stop some where.
I might have it heat up with Damon and Destiny. I might have to think about it, and those of you who are waiting to see how she's going to react with the Elizabeth and Jack thing, it's going to be really really sad.
I might even cry when I write it. The war has just begun between Elizabeth and Destiny, well next chapter it will begin.
