Jack smiled as they neared the island. Michelle's jaw was dropped as she looked at the completely stone island. She looked to Will for his reaction, but he was already yelling at Jack.
"This is stupid, Jack! We'll bloody be turned to stone!" Will watched in horror as the captain got out of the boat when they rested against the island's very rocky shore. Michelle covered her eyes, not wanting to watch Jack turn to stone, and Will looked away.
A moment later, they heard laughing as the drunk Captain Sparrow happily jumped up and down on the stone. He smiled at Will and said, "What's wrong, Turner? Scared?" Jack chuckled to himself as he walked away.
"No." Will called out, slipping an arm around Michelle's waist and bringing her out of the boat. She reluctantly stepped down, and when she did, she closed her eyes for a moment.
"This is so weird." She whispered, clinging to Will as she looked at the island made purely of rock. "Did he have to touch everything?" She asked, letting go of Will. Will sighed, following Jack to who know's where, and said, "Apparently so."
"Oh, gosh..." She said from behind him. She wasn't over exaggerating or being dramatic over this. It was a very creepy sight, to see an island made or rock. Everything from the trees, to the rocky sands...everything.
"Don't drag behind, mates, lest be turned into rock." They heard Jack call from somewhere in front of them. Elle groaned as she took Will's hand, and followed closely behind him. If it wasn't for this man having his heart, and Ellie, Will would have left Jack on that island, and sailed away on the Dutchman.
"Jack? SPARROW!" Will called out a moment later, "Where the hell are you- AHHH!" He felt someone grab his waist as they fell thru the trap. He felt something scratch his skin, as they fell roughly on the ground below them.
"DAMN IT!" Michelle screamed rather loudly when the collided with the ground. "Everything had to be STONE!"
Will would have laughed, had a pain not shot through his back. She took his hand, and pulled him to his feet. "I can't see anything." He whispered, taking her hand again. She looked around, squinting and said, "There's a perfectly placed torch over there that we probably should be worrying about in a moment because it probably means that someone is down here watching us."
She looked around as she said that. Will walked away from her, to the torch, and said, "The weird thing about that is, that actually made sense." He took the torch, and called, "Ellie?" He screamed when he turned and saw with the torch's light a face staring back at him.
"What? I don't like being alone." She whispered, looking around. "Especially in weird..caves..made...of..stone..." She took his hand again and said, "I don't like this."
"Please stop saying that." He said, because every time she said that, he became more and more scared.
He pulled her down a little passage, making sure she was close behind him. She was a little too close, he soon figured out, when her sword jabbed him hard in the leg. He grunted in pain, and she whispered, "Sorry."
"That's fine, darling." He groaned, "-just back up a little." She did so, and they began walking again. It was so quiet, Will asked her, "You know what may help us? Why don't you sing or something."
"Are you serious?" She said, laughing. When he didn't answer, she said, "Fine."
"As I sail away from you,
Pain sets in, and sees me through.
Lies, and death will come soon for me.
But I shall never die."
"Beathing heart-"
"Yeah." He said, cutting her off. "Anything but that."
She smiled, though he couldnt' see it in the darkness, and said, "Sorry. Um..."
"Yo, ho Yo ho, a pirate's life for me-"
She stopped singing when the cave started shaking. Will screamed, and pushed her back. Soon enough, she heard rocks falling all around her. "WILL!" She yelled, after the wall had seperated them. "WILL!"
Silence.
"WILL! OH MY-"
"Darling-" She heard a minute later. She sighed out relief when she heard him laugh and said, "-I'm immortal, remember? Are you alright?"
"Yes." She said, falling back against the wall. When she felt something fuzzy run past her leg, she screamed and said, "No!"
"Keep singing."
"Yo...ho..." She started shaking as she sat there in the darkness. She heard footsteps walking closer to her. "Yo...ho..." She closed her eyes, because even in the dark, it just made her feel better. "..a pirate's life for me..." She almost stared crying in fear when she heard someone breathing just a few feet from her. "...we pillage...we plunder...we rifle...and loot..."
The breathing became closer. "...drink up, me hearties, yo ho..." Closer still. "We kidnap...and ravage...and don't give a hooahhhh!!" She started screaming when someone's arms went around her. She kicked and screamed, ignoring Will's cries of "MICHELLE!"
She took out her sword, and carelessly started swinging it. "Whoah!" Someone yelled and took her sword. "Love, you trying to kill me or something? Be more careful." She almost collapsed with relief when she could make out Jack's face from light seeping thru a crack.
"Oh my gosh." She said, putting her sword back into her belt. "WHY DID YOU DO THAT? MY HEART COULD HAVE STOPPED!"
He smirked and said, "I could only hope." Ignoring her expression, he walked over to the rock wall and asked, "Will? Mate? You ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, Jack." He said with a groan. "I probably broke something in my hand, but I'm fine." Elle walked over to the wall and said, "I wish I could get to you. I know a healing charm."
"I know a healing charm." Jack said in a woman's voice. "Pfft. Well, aren't you special." She put a hand on Jack's shoulder, and said, "Darling, I'm so sorry you so upset with me for taking Will away from you."
"WOULD YOU STOP WITH ALL THESE 'JACK'S SO QUEER' JOKES?" Jack yelled, making another rock fall. "It hurts." He said that, pouting and arms crossed, looking up at Ellie with sad eyes.
She stared at him and said, "Jack, darling, you may be handsome." She leaned closer and said, "But looks aren't everything, love."
"Liar."
"Prove it."
"I am handsome."
"I know. I said you were."
"You can't resist me." He said, leaning closer to her. "You want to kiss me...hold me...and -"
"Ok, Jack, please for my sake, stop there." Will's disgusted voice came from the other side of the cave. "And stop bothering her."
"Who said I was bothering her?" Jack asked, looking at the rock wall, as if Will could see thru it.
"You're bothering me." Elle said, smiling sweetly at him. Jack narrowed his eyes and said, "Well, love. You didn't seem to have a problem with me a few years ago in Tortuga. Or do you not remember that blissful night?"
She gaped at him as Will made some sort of weird noise from the other side of the wall, "GRANT JACK SPARROW! YOU LIAR!"
"I am not lying, darling." He whispered in her ear, "I know what you like."
"OH MY- GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!" She yelled, pushing him off of her. "I never-"
"You did, love. You did."
"LIAR!"
"Prove it." He said, smiling. She gaped at him, before saying, "Ah...I...I hate you."
"Keep telling yourself that, darling." He said, sitting down and leaning against the wall, pulling his hat down a little over his eyes. He was smiling to himself as she just stared at him. He was obviously very, very happy with himself.
"I hate you!"
"Well, I don't really care!" He yelled back at her, "We've have good memories, so that's all that matters." His smile grew even wider when he heard a gasp coming from the other side of the cave, no doubt, from Will. After a moment, of silence, Will asked, "What exactly happened?"
"Oh, you really want to know, mate?" Jack said, happily, as he got back up and staggered over to the wall leaving a stunned (and angry) Michelle staring after him, "Well, it all started on an evening in Tortuga. The girl had a bit too much-"
"Grant, I swear to you. You say anything, and you will regret it." Michelle said in a murderous tone that Jack, nor Will, had ever heard her use before. She had also never called Jack by his first name. "I will kill you! And no stupid 'fountain' can save you from that."
"Oh. What are you going to do, love? Kiss me to death?"
"JACK, SHUT UP BEFORE I SHOVE YOUR HAT DOWN YOUR THROAT!" But Jack wasn't listening. He was too busy making kissy faces at her. She screamed in frustration as she sat on the floor, back turned to Jack. Will was being extremely silent over behind the wall, as Jack continued to make noises.
"Oh, goodness. If something in this cave doesn't kill me, I'll surely go mad!" She said in a dramatic tone as she took a fist full of hair, and rested her head in a hand as Jack said, "Why? You're in a cave with me!"
"THIS IS RIDICULOUS!"
It was silent, before Jack asked in an amused voice, "I bet you can't even spell ridiculous." She spun around fast, and said, "Ok, Jack. Look who's talking! You can't even spell fight, much less a very complicated word like that!"
"Whatever, darlin'. I don't need smarts when I have-"
"JACK!"
"What? I was going to say good looks."
"No you weren't!"
She sat down again, looking awat from him, as he said, laying on the cold, wet floor, "You know you love me."
She crawled over to him, and leaned in so that her lips were just inches away from his, "Yes, darling. That's exactly why I said I HATE-"
She was cut off by Jack squeezing her cheeks together, making her lips poof out. "No no." He said in a voice you would talk to a three year old with. "Bad, Ellie. Ellie's been a bad girl."
She smacked Jack, making him release her cheeks as he yelled, "Damn it, Michelle! Would you stop smacking me!"
"Not until you-" She narrowed her eyes, and said, "You disgust me, Jack."
He smiled, laying down once more, and said, "Makes me feel like my person in life is complete, dearie." She groaned as she walked over to the wall, and said, "Will? You've been awful quiet, are you ok?"
"The eunuch's probably upset that-"
"Jack, he is not a eunuch!" She spat at him, turning to look at him. "So, would you kindly stop calling him one, Grant?"
"Not until you stop calling me Grant." Jack said, leaning up on his elbows, "And how do you know he's not a eunuch?"
"I'll smack you again-" She said, making a move towards him. He covered his cheek and said, "Sorry, love."
"Sure you are." She said, her own face red from where he had squeezed it. She raised her hands up to the wall, a trick her mother had taught her, and tried to sense Will. Her heart fell when she felt it.
"He's not in there." She whispered, fear overcoming her.
"Who's not in where?" Jack, asked, oblivious.
"Will!" She said in a paniced voice. "He's not in there." Jack made one of his trademark faces as he pulled himself to his feet and said, "Will? Mate? You over there?" When silence accompanied his call, he said, "Oh, well this is wonderful. Eunuch-Will's, gone missing."
Michelle ran over to the wall and said, "We need to find an opening." Jack followed her, and looked up to the part of the cave's roof that had an opening. Light was seeping thru, and he said, "You're small enough to fit thru there." He put his hands on her waist, and lifted her up thru the opening.
When she was out, he cried, "Move the stone away, and I'll crawl out." She did so, and helped pull Jack out. She noticed now that Jack's face was white. He nervously bit his lip, and said, "Come on."
He took her hand and led her down the path that they had came, when she saw where they were going, she stopped and said, "No! Jack, I'm not leaving. We've got to find Will!"
"Darlin', if your father has him, he's as good as dead!"
"Well, if you won't come with me, I'll go myself." Jack stared at her for a moment, before saying, "You remind me so much of-" He stopped himself, and said, "-nevermind." He nodded and said, "Well, come on then. Let's go find your eunuch."
Ignoring his comment, she followed him down the path and asked, "Who do I remind you of?"
"No one, love."
"Jack." She took his hand and pulled him to a stop as she asked, "Who do I remind you of?"
He turned to look at her, and said, "The person, your relative, that your father thinks that on your 21st birthday...the soul of this person will come into you and dethrown him. Not quite like a recarnation, but close. He killed her. Everyone thought that she died of a cold, but she didn't. The doctors just thought she did, but she didn't. She died of fear. He was going to kill her, because he wanted to be king. Always wanted to be king-" Jack paused as they continued to walk back down the path. "-she promised that one day she would overthrow him, but she died before she got the chance...you're the next in line for the title."
"What are you talking about?"
Jack turned to face her, "Your father was the Pirate King's cousin. After he found out that the Pirate King was his cousin, he became furious. For years, he had wanted this title, and never got it, because every pirate lord voted for themself. Always. Until your cousin was elected. I changed it, because I also voted for her. He vowed to kill her, killing a lot of people just out of rage. Including Baldez, but that's another story." He looked of in the distance as he said that, then he looked back down and said, "But he made a mistake, because your cousin was a headstrong girl, just like yourself. She promised to pay him back for all he had done, then he tried to kill her. Multiple times, it had Will all upset-"
"Will?" Jack made a face as if he shouldn't have said that.
He closed his mouth, suddenly, but then said, "Yes. Your cousin was Elizabeth Swann, Will's wife. Your father changed his last name simply because he hated your cousin. You're actually a Swann not Swanson." Michelle was too stunned to speak, so Jack said, "My father wrote the code, and the code states that the next pirate in the family of the Pirate King would take the place of the dead one. Your father, being cursed by Baldez, couldn't be the King, so the title comes down to you adding yet another reason that your dear old dad wants you dead."
She looked down at the ground as she said, "I'm a recarnation of Elizabeth?"
"No. But in the next few days... you could very well be possesed by her spirit. Sounds fun doesn't it?" He asked, smiling. "Now, Your Highness, I think we have wasted enough time talking about this. We need to go find William before he's turned into a statue."
Stunned, she turned around...but when she did so, she wished she never had.
"Oh, bugger." Jack mumbled when he saw the same pirates that had risen the Kraken from the depths were standing in front of them. They chained Jack and Ellie up and led them down the path. They soon came to a volcano, and Jack's eyes grew wide as they crossed the narrow bridge.
"This can't be good for my hair." He mumbled, looking down at the bubbling lava. "Not a nice day for a swim, ay? OW!" One of the pirates poked him with their sword. Jack stuck his tongue out at him, but stopped when the pirate rose the sword up once again.
After more minutes of walking, they ended up at a camp. "Ellie!" She turned her head to see Will tied up to a wooden post in the middle of the ground. Jack groaned and said, "More cannibals. Peachy."
The biggest pirate came and jerked Elle from the bunch, and placed a gun against her head. "NO!" Will made a move to try and break free of the ropes he was in, but two strong pirates pulled him back and restrained him.
"Miss Swann-" The pirate hissed in her ear. Will's eyes locked on Elle's for a moment. She just smiled sadly at him as the pirate jerked her again and said, "-I want you to tell me how to summon your mother."
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
He jerked her harder, and said, "YES YOU DO! Tell me how to summon your mother."
"No!"
"Miss Swann, I have ways to make you talk." The pirate spat in her face. He motioned for another pirate to come up. Elle started crying when she saw that familiar chest being brought out in front of her. She looked over at Will, and her fears were confirmed. They had taken the key from his neck.
The smaller pirate unlocked the key, and took the beating heart out. She started sobbing uncontrolably as the pirate raised a knife to the heart. The pirate restraining her said, "Summon your mother, or he dies!"
She opened her mouth, but Will cut her off. "Darling, don't! They want to summon Calypso so that she can lift the curse that Baldez put on your father. If she lifts the curse, he'll kill you." He looked on the verge of tears, before saying , "Don't do it."
A single tear rolled down her rosy cheek, as she said, "Will, I'm sorry. Some things are more important then the your own life." A tear rolled down his cheek as she said, "Love makes you do stupid things, right?"
She looked up at the pirate and said, "I'll do it."
Will closed his eyes, as she said, "Convoque el Calypso. Diosa del mar. Convoque el Calypso. Lo más favorablemente posible del thee."
The clouds turned dark, and lighting shot thru the sky. Some of the pirates gapsed, some ran...
Will opened his eyes. His and Elle's gazes locked for a moment, before she said, "I love you, Will."
Just after she said that, the pirate that had been restraining her, threw her to the ground. He pulled out his sword, and put it under her neck. Will screamed as the pirate pushed it just a little deeper, not puncturing her, but drawing blood. The pirate smiled and said, "Your father has no use for you now."
She closed her eyes, waiting for him to pierce her, but he didn't. Thunder rolled louder, and she opened her eyes as another flash of ligtning shot thru the sky.
He looked petrified as a voice ,in a familiar accent that her, Will and Jack recognized, called out, "Nobody hurts me daughter."
