"I found this for you!" Jack said to Angelica, holding out one of the two silver swords he found with some seaweed hanging from it.

Angelica sighed, snatched it away, and began to walk the opposite direction.

"Hey, wait up!" Jack cried, sheathing the other sword and running out of the water and onto the beach.

"Not now, Jack." She called back to him, "I need to find my son."

"I think you mean our son." Jack corrected, making his way up to her on the beach, "And besides, it's not like I'm going to let you go in this strange jungle all by yourself!"

Angelica stopped walking and turned around at him, "Oh really? Like you're going to protect me? And Jason isn't your son! You weren't there to take care for him-!"

"And who says I won't now?" Jack asked.

"Ugh!" She stomped her foot, before heading to the jungle again.

Jack followed, "What? You don't believe me?"

"Why would I?" Angelica asked, walking faster, "It's not like you ever cared about having a family or anything. What was it that you told me that one time? 'My only love is the sea'?"

"That was ages ago, darling!" He said, ducking under a branch, "and besides, I have changed greatly since then!"

She stepped over a fallen tree before saying, "I don't care! You've never cared about anyone but yourself and your stupid ship!"

He was close enough now to grab her hand, "Angelica, I do care about you, though."

Angelica looked up to his eyes. She ignored the fluttering of her heart and simply said, "You're just saying that because you found out you have a child with me."

Jack opened his mouth to protest, but she jerked her hand out of his and told him, "Just let me find him on my own, Jack. Please?"

He looked at her for a few seconds and answered, "No. I won't allow it. I'll follow you till the ends of this Earth-"

"Oh, please!"

"Don't believe me? Don't believe that that kiss we just had back there meant nothing?"

"I never said-!"

"Aha!" He smiled, "So you enjoyed it!"

"What? No-!" She stammered.

"Here," He tugged an emerald ring off of one of his fingers and held it out to her, "I found this long before I met you. I'll admit, it's one of my favorite rings, but you may have it as a token of my love." He grinned at the last part.

Angelica slowly took it, examining the silver band around the emerald. "It's lovely, Jack, but like I said, we aren't lovers anymore-"

"Shh!" He shushed, glancing around.

She did too, but didn't see anything. "What is it?"

"SHH!" Jack said louder, peering over her shoulder. His eyes widened, and he cautiously unsheathed his sword. Angelica slowly turned around, and was so terrified she screamed. Jack's hand covered her mouth to muffle her noise. "Quiet, love." He whispered in her ear.

A violet-colored monkey with red eyes was staring at them with its long teeth barred at the two of them. It also had very sharp claws, and seemed tense like it was about to pounce.

Angelica was breathing heavily as she stared back at the creature. She had never seen anything like it, and wasn't sure how to react but to stand still. Jack hissed in her ear, "Don't move, I'm going to kill it."

She nodded slightly, and his hand went away from her mouth, only brushing her cheek once, but it was enough to give her goose-bumps. He stepped in front of her and slowly raised the sword, not taking his eyes off the monkey.

The monkey gave a piercing screech that made Angelica cover her ears. The leaves above them rustled, and suddenly dozens of those violet-monkeys appeared, all screeching and hissing at them.

Jack and Angelica stood back to back now, swords drawn. "Any ideas?" She asked him.

"Survive?"

"That's it?"

"That's what most of my plans usually are! Other than that, I just…improvise!" He answered before lunging at a nearby vine. He cut it in half, and it seemed to be attached to a large branch. The branch came down and swept about four of the monkeys away.

"Impressive," was all Angelica said.

Jack smiled, "Thank you. But watch out." With a side step around her, he attacked a monkey that had jumped at her.

In the meantime, Angelica was busy fighting the ones that were charging the opposite direction. After killing two, another came on her back and dug it's fangs into her shoulder. She cried out in pain, but it was dead soon enough. Jack had her back once again.

The pain was the least of her worries when more creatures ran at her. She sliced, cut, and fought them to their deaths, but they were strong and fast. After chopping a head off of one that tried to bite her leg, a hand grabbed her shoulder. She turned and Jack said, "We need to run now." He gestured at her right. Angelica turned and saw between the trees that a herd of violet-monkeys were now charging at them in the distance.

Jack grabbed her hand and led her away from them before she could say anything out of surprise. They ran together deeper into the mysterious jungle, and far away from those dangerous beasts.

Mr. Gibbs, Pintel, Ragetti, Mr. Cotton, Coldwood, and his crew had all washed up on the same large beach. Almost everyone was coughing up water and trying to catch their breath. There were shouts heard above the murmurs, like, "Where are we?" "Has anyone seen Francis?" "That's my hat!"

"Where's the captain?" Pintel asked, dumping water out of his boot.

Ragetti looked around, not seeing Jack anywhere. "I don't know. Could he have drowned?"

"Doubt it." Gibbs told him, sitting down in the sand, "Jack can swim."

"In those waters?" Pintel said, pointing at the ocean. Then he paused, glanced around, and asked, "Where's Marty?"

As the four pirates searched around, Coldwood was looking for someone as well. "Where the hell is Sparrow?" He asked his first mate, Rex, "He has the compass. I know it didn't work in the ocean but it might on land. And where's Rivera? She-" He then realized, "Wait...where's Anya?"

Rex shrugged and said, "Haven't seen her yet, Cap'n. I did watch that lady Rivera be swept away by a current, though. It was right after we were thrown off the Pearl...as for Sparrow, I haven't seen him yet..."

Coldwood took in this information, nodding his head occasionally, but he couldn't help but worry about his niece. This was her first big quest, and what if she had gotten lost in the sea? Could she even swim?

Cotton, however, was pointing at the water and trying to get someone's attention. Gibbs and Pintel ran to him, while Ragetti tripped on his way to him. "Was is it, Cotton?" Gibbs asked.

"Where's his bloody parrot?" Pintel also asked, realizing that it was missing.

Cotton just kept having his index finger pointing straight at the ocean. They all turned their heads (Ragetti finally joined them) and saw that the tall, muscular pirate named Ares walking onto the beach and dripping with water. He was carrying a smaller body on his shoulders that they recognized immediately. "Marty!" They cried, rushing to him.

Ares set Marty down in the sand gently. "Marty! You alright?" Pintel asked, leaning down next to his friend. Marty coughed up some water and sat up, nodding while clutching his chest.

He then looked up at Ares, who was beginning to walk to Coldwood. "I don't get it." Marty said to his friends after clearing his throat, "I probably would've drowned, but he saved me. Why?" When no one answered, he continued, "Well? He's just part of Coldwood's crew! Why would he do that?"

"Look, mate, I don't know." Ragetti answered, "Let's just be thankful that your alive, okay?" Marty sighed and nodded again. They helped him to his feet as Coldwood began to talk to all of them from behind.

"Listen up!" He shouted, standing up perfectly straight, "We are going to head inland, towards the mountain you see in the center." It was kind of hard to miss, the mountain he was talking about, for it towered over the entire island. "Every survivor will come with us, or can join the unlucky ones." He nodded towards the ocean. They all looked and saw floating bodies in the distance. Ragetti gave a loud gulp.

"Good." Coldwood finished before leaning over to mutter something into Rex's ear. Rex nodded and walked towards where Gibbs and his friends were.

"All of you," he pointed at the five of them. "are in the front when we head out."

Gibbs tried to look taller against the brawny pirate as he asked, "And why's that?"

Rex laughed, showing his crooked teeth. "Simply for precaution. And that reminds me, you'll probably need some weapons." He turned and yelled, "OI! Ares! Gimme some swords would ya?" Rex looked back at Gibbs and was smirking as Ares arrived with the swords.

Once they were each handed one, Rex forced them towards where Coldwood was now studying his map. Gibbs had a terrible feeling that the only reason they decided that the five of them be in the front for 'precaution' was because whatever was in that jungle was really bad, and that was why they needed him, Marty, Pintel, Regetti, and Cotton in the front.

So the dangers could hit them first.
