Warning: Some parts in this are like the movie, so if you saw. Not much, but I won't tell you which part so that it doesn't ruin the movie for you if you haven't seen it. The whole story isn't based on the movie, since I saw it after I got the idea. Alright, now, on with the story!


Chapter Two
A Pirates Life

"Yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me." Gibbs sang drunkenly. He stumbled as the ship hit a large wave.

Elizabeth sat staring off to see. "I miss you Jack." she said quietly.

Will, who had been standing just behind her, turned around. If Jack made Elizabeth happy... he would do anything to make her happy. Even let her go.

Barbosa walked down from his cabin. "Swab the deck." he ordered. He threw a bucket at another pirate.

Barbosa saw Elizabeth staring off. He made his way over to her. "So you miss yer captian, eh?" he asked.

Elizabeth didn't reply.

"Well I think I'm a rather good replacement." Barbosa said.

Elizabeth turned to face away from him.

Barbosa went on that side. "Come now deary, just a little chat won't hurt." he said.

"What do you want to chat about Barbosa?" Elizabeth asked annoyed.

Barbosa smirked. "Aye, I believe you are scared my dear." He began.

It wasn't till now that Elizabeth met his eyes.

"Scared Jack, how he made you feel." he went on. "You feel that way about Will and you don't know if its something or nothing." Barbosa went on.

Elizabeth smiled some. "You must have a very good understanding of women." she said.

"No just a very good ability to read." Barbosa told her. He handed her a pink binded book of parchment.

Elizabeth snatched it off of him. "My thoughts are for me alone, Barbosa." she hissed.

"Aye, they are. My appologies." he said. "I never actually read it, you know." he went on. "But in order to get what you want out of someone you need to make them believe you already have it." He took a step towards her.

Elizabeth waved her hand infront of her face to get the smell of his breath away.

Will walked up. "Is there a problem, Captian?" he asked darkly.

"Nay, no problem." Barbosa replied. He nodded at Elizabeth and left.

"I have always hated that man." she said.

Will laughed. "Oh come now, Elizabeth, he's taking us to find Jack." he said.

Elizabeth smiled some. "Well I suppose thats the only good thing about him. She said she looked up at him with a smile.

Will smiled back, maybe he didn't have to let her go to let her be happy. At least not yet, He thought. Elizabeth leaned back on Will. Will smiled. 'No... not quite yet.'

Singing was heard in the distance. "The song..." Barbossa said. "It's begun."
