Thunder: Sorry guys. Gotta make this a serious chapter again.

Furfaidz: Wah! ((tear))

Chapter 19

Megan reappeared silently in Davy Jones' room on the Flying Dutchman, just in time to have her ears blown out by the music. She held her cry of surprise when the loud organ music assaulted her ears and quickly put her hands over them. Before turning her back on him, she watched as he played the large instrument. She still couldn't believe a person like him could make music as haunting and beautiful as this. Yeah, he was creepy. Yeah, he was evil. But man... he had emotion in his song. He looked majestic as he poured his heart and soul-- er... his soul onto his instrument.

"Wow." Megan whispered before turning around and walking through the door. The sound was muffled a bit by the door, so she lifted her hands to look for her friend. Found her after two seconds.

"Emily!" She said, running through the rain to her friend. Emily was mad. It was clear as the nose on her face. Megan can already feel the 'Kill Jack Sparrow' vibes before Emily even noticed her. She glanced over, her teeth clenched as she pulled on a rope to lift a cannon.

"Uh... Hi Ems." Megan said

"Can't talk! Cause of Jack Stinkin' Sparrow!" Emily said, before going back to her heaving.

"Secure the mast tackle Mr. Turner!" The Bo'sun said. "Step to it!" Megan spared a glance up to where the Bo'sun was to spot the two Turners going for the same line.

"Look, whatever happens, don't get involved!" Megan said before snapping her fingers and appearing behind the Turners who just met.

"Step aside!" Will said

"Regain yourself!" Bootstrap said

"Hey!" Will said

"Let go, boy!" Bootstrap said. Then the lightning flashes and the two finally met face to face.

"Dun dun DUN!" Megan said

"No." Bootstrap said, letting go of the line, which caused mass hysterics and minor injuries, except for the fish man called Fred.

"Ow." Fred said from underneath the fallen cannon. The Bo'sun came up to the fallen pirates, cat-o-nine tails whip in hand.

"Haul that weevil to his feet." he said as two crewmen pulled Will up. Emily came up to Megan.

"What happened?" She asked. Megan quickly looked at Emily then back at Will, the Bo'sun, and Bootstrap, listening to the music that stopped playing.

"Five lashes to remind you to stay outta--" he said, raising his whip to be stopped by Bootstrap.

"No!" He said, pulling the whip away.

"Stay out of this!" Megan said. Emily ignored her friend and saw Will

"What is going on here?" She asked her friend.

"Ughh." Megan said, walking through the crowd to Bootstrap.

"Impeding me in my duties." the Bo'sun said, "You'll share the punishment."

"I'll take it all!" Bootstrap said

"Will you now?" Davy Jones asked, walking into the crowd. "And what would prompt such an act of charity?" Emily pushed through the crowd and was shocked to see the scene before her.

"What is going on here?!" Emily yelled. Everyone looked at her. Megan slumped her shoulders and walked over to her friend, putting her arm around her shoulders.

"What did I say? What should you have done?" Megan asked, looking at Emily with a blank expression.

"No way! I gotta go help Will!"" Emily said. She tried to run to Will, but Megan grabbed onto her friend, trying to stop her. She pulled Emily away, then turned around and pushed the red head away, but then Emily ran up and pulled Megan's hair. HARD.

"Let go Let go LET GO LET GO!!" Mega yelled. She tried reaching back and pushed her friend's face back, but her hand ventured to low, and Emily soon chomped down on it.

"AH!" Megan yelled, she soon used the other hand to pull on Emily's ponytail. They tried walking but soon fell to the deck, becoming a pile of fighting girls pulling on each others hair. During their fight, the whole crew was watching them. Davy, who was getting annoyed by the two girls antics. He slowly marched up to the impervious duo. Only when he let out a deep growl did they stop fighting to look up at the cursed captain.

"Um..." they said in unison

"My son." Bootstrap said, saving the girls and drawing everyone's attention back to the situation at hand. Davy walked away from the two to go back to the punishment for Will.

"He's my son." Bootstrap said, looking at Will.

"WHA?!" Emily asked, surprised by the sudden news. Megan pulled her hands back when Emily dropped her arms from Megan's hair. Emily looked over at Megan who only nodded her head.

"How did that,"Emily said, pointing at Bootstrap, "make that?!" She pointed at Will.

"Its was before Curse of the Black Pearl, kay?" Megan said. Davy let out a good long laugh that sent chills down Emily's spine.

"What fortuitous circumstance be this!" Davy said. "Five lashes be owed, I believe it is." He held his hand out to the Bo'sun, who gave his captain his whip. Davy then held the whip out to Bootstrap.

"... No." Bootstrap said, getting the idea. "No, I won't!"

"The cat's out of the bag Mr. Turner! Your issue will feel its sting be it the Bo'sun's hand, or your own." Davy said

"What?" Emily asked

"Emily, go down below and stay there before Will and I come down." Megan said, trying to push her friend away.

"No." Bootstrap said.

"Bo'sun!" Davy said

"NO!" Bootstrap said, pulling the cat out of his captain's.

"What is that?" Emily asked. "What's he gonna do with it?" Bootstrap walked up towards Will. Will's shirt was pulled.

"Talk about sexy back! OOW!" Emily yelled

"Emily!" Megan said. Then all at once, Emily got what was happening. She ran forward before one crew member grabbed her and held her as she thrashed to be let go.

"No. No! You can't do this to him! He doesn't deserve this! He's Will Turner for crying out loud! He doesn't get whipped!" Emily yelled. Then came the snap of the cat on Will's back.

"NOO!" Emily yelled louder, tears starting to form. "You're his dad! You can't do this to him!" It came down a second time.

"Stop it Bootstrap! Just stop it!" A third time.

"Please!" A fourth time. Megan looked to Davy. His back was to her, but she already knew what was happening to his front. Th whip came down a final time. Davy turned to go back to his cabin. He walked past Megan and all time seemed to suddenly as he passed and the shared a stare. They looked each other dead in the eyes as he passed. When he was out of her sight, she let out a breath she didn't know she was hoding and watched as Will was thrown down the stairs, Emily and Bootstrap following.

"Will! Will, Are you okay?" Emily asked, holding his head.

"William." Bootstrap said

"I don't need your help!" Will yelled, walking away from the two.

"The Bo'sun prides himself on cleaving flesh from bone, with every swing." Bootstrap said

"So I'm to uderstand what you did was an act of compassion?" Will asked

"Yes." Bootstrap said. The two Turners looked at each other.

"Please." Megan said. "Please make up, you two. You're father and son for crying out loud. I can't hold a grudge against my dad for forever, and neither can you Will."

"She's right." Bootstrap said

"Yeah, of course she is." Emily said, walking over to Megan. "Megs, can I talk to you in private for a moment?" She drapped an arm around her friend and walked her over to a corner. She then turned Megan around and Held her against the wall.

"You knew this would happen. You knew he'd get hurt like this!" Emily nearly yelled. "Why didn't you tell me? That was wrong on so many levels!!"

"I knew'd try to stop it." Megan said

"What difference does it make if Will gets whipped or not?! That was curle and unusual punishment!"

"For Will, Bootstrap, or for you to watch?"

"Uhh... What do you mean?"

"If Bootstrap hadn't whipped Will, he wouldn't have been filled with the guilt that would make him make up with his son. If Will wasn't whipped, he wouldn't have the frustration that only Bootstrap can take away and would cause the two to bond. So the only one I see who would have a problem with Will being whipped in the long run would be you."

"... Are you sure about this?"

"I saw the movie. I know what happens, when it happens, why it happens, and what the outcome is. Savvy? By the way, we should catch up with Will and his dad before they meet Wyvern." Megan then dashed off to search for the father and son.

"Who's Wyvern?" Emily asked before running to follow her fluffy-headed friend. The two caught up with Will and Bootstrap. Just in time.

"One hundred years before the mast. Losing your world, bit by bit." Bootstrap said. "Until you end up- end up like poor Wyvern here." They stopped to see a man who looked like he was made of coral and attached to the ship, holding a lantern.

"So that's Wyvern." Emily said

"Yeah pretty much." Megan said

"Once you've sworn an oath to the Dutchman, there's no leaving it." Bootstap said. "Not until your debt is paid."

"I'v sworn no oath." Will said

"Then you must get away." his father whispered to him.

"We will, but first we have something to do." Emily said

"What?"

"We have to find this. The key." Will said, pulling out the drawing. Wyvern's eys shot open and he pulled himself from the wall, his brain showing. Emily squeaked and ran behind Will.

"Kill it kill it kill it." she said over and over again.

"It's creepier in person." Megan said, slowly moving behind Will as well.

"The Dead Man's Chesst." Wyvern said

"What do you know of this?" Will asked

"Open the chest with the key, and stab the heart." Wyvern said. "No-no-no-no. Don't stab the heart. The Dutchman needs a living heart, or there'll be no captain. And if there's no captain, there's no one to have the key."

"So the captain has the key." Will asked as Wyvern started to retract into the wall. "Where is the key?"

"Hidden." Wyvern said

"Where is the chest?" Emily asked

"Hidden." Wyvern said, falling back into the wall, his eyes snapping shut.

"Well, he was a well of knowledge." Emily said. "Now we don't know where the key or the chest is."

"It was nice staying her with you three, but I gotta go. Bye!" Megan said, snapping her fingers and disappearing to the next scene.

"Who was that girl with the strange hair?" Bootstrap asked

"Just Megan." Emily said. "Just crazy old, weird haired, pirate loving Megan."

Thunder: Dang Em's, why'd fight me? It wasn't nice! Especially pulling my hair.

Ekari: I'm sorry. Friends?

Thunder: Yeah. Friends. ((hug))
