Merida gasped the moment she'd heard the fiddle start to play, "Everyone shield your ears and make strike something?!" she yelled.

Ginny clapped her palms upon her ears, "Why!?"

Gabby uttered under her breath, "Fosse Grim."

Daniel had stumbled upon a random bucket as he made his way over to the trio, scowling when his foot got stuck in the wooden object. "Fos-e-wa?"

"Fosse Grim." Gabby repeated looking at the lad terrified.

"What's-" Daniel was cut off.

Angelica was the first to get mesmerized by the tune, and started walking towards the bowsprit in a daze.

Jack who was now standing behind the three girls and Daniel noticed at the corner of his right eye, a form that he found quite familiar- only this female was acting quite strangely. "Angelica, " he called out only to find that she hadn't even turned to look at him. "Oh..kay…" Jack then pondered to himself before punching his head again, "Stupid-stupid-steeeeeuuupid-"

Merida turned to her right to find the mad Captain again, and like clock-work Marie had just come into view. What was with this girl? A part of Merida doubted this girl was any ordinary human- why else would their Captain go mad?

Daniel had also managed to look over his shoulder at the mumbling goof who'd started abusing his head again as he raised a quizzical brow. He then noticed Marie walk forth in the same dazed form as Angelica, her eyes seemed glazed as she walked in a strange sleep-walking appearance. "Mar-"

"Shhh-" Merida hissed as she grabbed the boy's arm as he attempted to grab hold of the girl who now caught up with Angelica.

Daniel and a few other crewmen who hadn't put wax in their ears started to feel light headed at the tune, apparently the song didn't discriminate. Soon Gabby, Ginny followed after Marie who now walked along side Angelica.

Jack soon snapped out of it before dashing back below deck muttering to himself, while a dazed Pintel started on his zombie like parade as he too got caught in the mysterious song. Ragettii who stood alongside him didn't really see what was the big idea, he hadn't put any wax in his ears either which was quite puzzling if one thought about it. Maybe he was just tone deaf? In either case he had grappled Pintel scowling, "Oh no you don't! You're not going to fall for a mermaid!"

Pintel just gasped as he struck his chin on the cold wooden planks and snapped out of it, only to shove his friend as he chased after his rolling wooden eyeball again.

Marie seemed to have stumbled backwards into Angelica who tripped over the dazed Ginny causing a domino effect. Both Ginny and Angelica seemed to have bumped their heads on one another and seemed quite comfortable in their seated position. The song played was really calming, and their bodies didn't feel the need to move any further-contradicting Marie's actions.

Eyes seemed to focus only on the being before her, the man seemed well built and in his mid-twenties; well dressed and high in stature. His platinum hair was tied back in a pony tail and his eyes seemed so intensely blue he seemed to draw the human girl in. Wearing a slight half grin as the girl now stood just ten feet from his current position began to walk forward to only pull her deeper into his spell. Marie had never seen such sad soulful eyes before, and his presence seemed to give her a sense of security-one that she'd never really felt before. Everyone seemed lost in a blur as she took the regal man's hand, and even if he hadn't been playing the violin, his partner who lay in the rafters continued his song.

"What is your name child..?" he seemed to ask. Marie who seemed lost in his outer appearance didn't seem to respond. Thinking it was the effect of his own charm just smiled wider, " What is your name my lady?" he asked again, this time a little louder. After he didn't receive a response he felt quite awkward, typically she'd have responded by now, but what was wrong?

Meanwhile Marie was thinking, "Don't look down, don't look down, don't look down." Lost in the moment of not wanting to look down, really didn't notice the young man's lips draw out words. But then again what words could she hear? If only she'd remembered she was only pretending to fall into the song's spell..maybe she'd have remembered to pay attention to what his mouth was doing. And then it happened, her foot slipped and she'd stumbled onto the young man who'd caught her but had also stumbled a bit- luckily he'd gotten his balance back and both stood back up again.

Jack on the other hand was fumbling through his old logs in his statesroom, "Oh where is it!" he scowled dumping the empty plates books, charts over his shoulder. Taking the flask quickly took a deep drink until the last drop of rum was gone. "Ugh why is the rum always gone." Really irritated whipped out his compass and tapped it's glassy glaze. When the arrow pointed to a far, hard to reach shelf he grinned his toothy grin and waddled over to it, attempting to jump to reach the topmost shelf for a dusty old log book. "Umf!" he kept coughing out as he kept jumping upon his toes. When finally he'd gotten the book end the whole thing collapsed on him and he fell backwards..

-THUD-

The thud seemed to echo throughout the ship making those who didn't have wax turn over their shoulders, and for those who'd blocked their ears, the vibrations that seeped through the ground made their eyes fall to the wooden planks beneath them. At this point Angelica had snapped out of it and rubbed the corner of her forehead which had struck the girl beside her who seemed out cold. "What happened?" the woman asked the air in a confused fashion.

Seeing this as an opportunity Daniel made his way towards some of the low laying rigging, he wasn't going to let that Thing take Marie away. Whipping out his blunt dagger started sawing down on the rope.

Marie who'd apparently lost one of her waxy ear blubs turned to the sound of the loud crash, only to have her face whipped back by the young man who pulled her close in an attempted kiss. Eyes wide quickly cupped her hand over his face which made him wide eyed-but what kept his eyes wide wasn't the fact that she'd not been under his spell, but the fact that a swinging yard arm was headed straight towards them. Marie on the other hand hadn't realized this swinging projectile until the last moment, when the man had literally slipped off the bowsprit as he attempted to back away from the wooden arm. Seeing this Marie followed forward and grabbed the man's sleeve- unsure what this person was didn't intend for him to fall to his watery grave. "Gotcha!" she said as the other piece of wax popped comically out of her other ear. The man was caught off guard and just stared up at her and grabbed her wrist. Thinking he wanted her to pull him up, Marie started using all her strength to pull him up close enough to hold the wooden point on which they were both perched on. The moment the man had stabilized himself with his elbows he'd noticed the black spot upon the girl's hand and screeched comically in her face and whipped out his arm as if striking her away. As expected Marie fell backwards and so did the creature.

Daniel yelled " NOO!" As he made his way over to the projectile sticking out from the bow.

"Greigore!" Jack yelled as he stumbled comically with a bucket stuck on his foot. "You still have a bucket on your foot!" he yelled.

Daniel ignored Jack's outburst and started to climb onto the headpiece only to realize the bucket made things cumbersome. Kicking off his shoe crawled out to where he last saw Marie and called out "MARIEEEEEEEEEEEEE". Fearing the worst started to cry-much to his own surprise.

Silence seemed to have swept through the ship as Angelica shoved Jack out of the way as she attempted to call back her son, "Daniel please come back!"

For once Daniel didn't feel like moving and just sat there. Little did he suspect that dangling underneath him was that clumsy girl Marie. "Are you gonna help me up or not?" came the husky lyrics of the girl.

Caught off guard Daniel scanned the surface, "Marie?"

"Down here!"

Looking down saw the girl who'd managed to latch onto a piece of rope that had somehow strung itself underneath the ornament. Hauling her up gave her a hug, and from an onlookers point of view, it just seemed like he'd have to grab hold of her in that wholesome manner.

Caught off guard, Marie just lingered wide eyed, and in the palm of her hand was a charm attached to a necklace.

"Marie Daniell hurry!" came Angelica's worried play of words.

Once again the winds picked up and the duo made their way on board once more.

"Looks like a squall's a comin" Mr. Gibbs reported from the bridge.

As Marie crawled she could've sworn she'd seen a shadow looming in the distance- having her eyes fixated to her far left, Daniel seemed to have snapped his fingers right before her eyes, "Hello, earth to Marie" The moment the girl turned to him he lashed out at her, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING!?

Confused at his outburst Marie simply stated, "I was curious."

Angelica frowned as her son started yelling at the seemingly still dazed Marie, while Merida had her eyes fixed upon the port side of the ship in a shocked disposition. Gasping at her realization ran over to Jack, "Captain we have to turn back!"

"What!?" Jack snapped. "After all I've been through just to get you back here , you want me to head back!?"

"Yes."

Without a second's notice Jack quickly agreed, no way was he wanting another experience with a strange Princely man and random stormy out bursts again. "Okay!"

Angelica snapped, "Sparrow! We don't have enough supplies to take us all back!"

Marie who was being dragged away by Daniel just kept her eyes fixated towards the bow of the ship in which a dark shadow glared upon them. "Guys.." she began.

Jack turned towards Angelica "We'll manage as long as we got rum." he spat still rattled from what had just occurred-the water logged book under his right arm.

"Captain, the rum is gone!" came the untimely crewmen from below.

"What!?" Jack snapped as he looked at the haggard man.

There was then a scratching sound from below deck, "Oh no.. no no nonooooooooo" Jack muttered as he ran over to the railings once more.

Marie called out once more , "GUYS!"

Daniel yelled, "we hit a shallow reef!"

Ginny hung onto her sister Gabby now, really fearful of what was to become of them, "This is exactly what happened last time!" she cried out.

Gibbs looked at the crying girl, "Like last time!?" his paranoia started to get the better of him now as he did some strange chant and twirl which in turn Pintel and Ragatii followed suit.

Marie yelled out louder than before." WE HAVE BIGGER PROBLEMS!"

Jack looked over his shoulder, "What can be worst than hitting a shallow reef AND losing all the rum?" he spat really irritated at the turn of events.

"THAT!" Daniel pointed out the moment he'd followed the focus of Marie's gaze to find a murderous hung of black in front of them, and by the deafening crashing the waves sounded, that object could prove the source of their annihilation .

"HARD TO PORTSIDE!" Marie hollered.
