Later the next day, Jack and Joanna were taking there time with leaving their bed, well they were till Gibbs rudely interrupted them.
"Land ho!" Gibbs shouted from above.
"Ready?" Jack asked, getting off of his bed.
"Do we have to? We found land"
"No, no I need you safe your with me"
Joanna springs to life from the bed, grabbing her coat, sword, and placing her bandana around her head again.
"Now I'm ready"
The crew was pulling the ship into land while the couple jumped into the shallow water.
"What do you think?" Jack asked.
"This island is no good, I'm going back to the ship"
"Joanna no!" Jack grabbed her arm.
"Someone needs to stay with the ship, I'm second in line for captain, one of us needs to survive" Joanna wasn't giving in and Jack could see that.
"What is to happen if we don't make it back, can you sail the Pearl all by your lonesome?"
"I can"
"Stay here then, But Chris any slight of life you run and hide"
"I'm not worried about me, you kill anyone you see"
"I love you Chris"
"I love you too"
The crew sets off into the forest, while Joanna goes back to the cabin to find the piece of paper her father had left her. She rummages through some things until she came a crossed the paper. Joanna couldn't bring herself to open it before, since it's been none stop for as long as she could remember. But now that there was a moment of piece and Jack wasn't standing over top of her every movement.
The piece of paper was actually no more than just a letter addressed to Joanna.
Chris,
I am sorry for the pain I have caused ye, you must understand I am or wasn't me self, I love you very dearly and when I find your mother she will die. If I die before this task is complete, please do as I ask and murder the bloody woman, also if I die, do not grieve, my death was my own doing. I only willed me self to live long enough to see you breath again, I have missed you. You damn woman have brought me to tears again, lying awake most nights thinkin about ye, wonderin how you'd look, if you'd even remember me, if your even alive still, but now, seeing you again, has completed why I ever lived, I do not fear dying now. I know you're in good hands with Jack, if you so choose to I want Jack to be your forever just like I thought Catherine was mine.
Love, Daddy.
Joanna couldn't take it any more she bursts out crying wishing she had Jack with her, but alas he had taken off into the jungle with the rest of the crew. So she did what any normal woman would do and that was to cry herself to sleep. Joanna didn't know how many days had pasted as she just laid in bed thinking about her father and Jack, but one morning she heard a voice and not just any voice.
"Jack! Jack Sparrow!" Will Turner called out. "Joanna? Gibbs? Anybody?" He called out again.
Joanna charges out of the cabin, jumps off the side of the ship and straight into Will's arms. "Will I am so glad your here.
"What is going on here? Where's the rest of the crew?"
"They toke off into the jungle a few days ago, I was to wait for there return but I can not move the ship by myself if they never come back"
"I need to find Jack"
"They went this way" She said leading Will into the thickness of the forest.
Will finds Gibbs' husk canteen hanging on a plant, trailing a long string. "Gibbs" He replied.
"Aye"
Will and Joanna follow the string attached to the canteen, over toward a large tree. Human eyes open in the background, from a man camouflaged against a nearby tree. The camouflaged cannibal shouts and jumps out from the tree at Will and Joanna.
Will is yanked back by a snare, and dangles upside-down from a rope, Joanna steps backwards and traps herself as well.
"Damn it!" She shouts.
Cannibals charge out of the bushes from all directions, Will keeps them at bay with his sword, Joanna see's what he was doing and joins in, but quickly realizes that was not a smart thing to do.
"Come on! Let's go! Come on! Who wants it? I could do this all day!" Will shouted acting crazy.
"Will don't encourage them!" Joanna shouted back at him.
A cannibal with a bone through his nose, looking rather annoyed with Will, uses his blowgun to shoot a dart into Will's neck. He drops his sword to the ground, limp as a dead fish.
"Will" Joanna shouted, getting angry she swings her sword around actually killing one of them, but no later than a few seconds later she was out cold as well.
Will is carried through the forest, hanging from a bamboo pole, with his head hanging back, not far behind him was Joanna who has suffered the same fate. Will and Chris are brought before Jack, who sits on a throne, who was looking god-like. The music that was playing stopped, Jack's eyes open with a flash, revealing that his closed eyelids were painted to look like open eyes.
What in the bloody hell is this? Captured William and oh fuckin hell, not Chris, bugger all, how did they find her? Jack thought to himself.
Will comes to and the first person he saw was Jack. "Jack? Jack Sparrow! I can honestly say
I'm glad to see you!"
Jack says nothing, arises from his throne, walks over to Will, Jack pushes one finger into Will's shoulder, as if testing how much meat he has on him, then comes over to Joanna
Will would not shut up. "Jack! It's me! Will Turner!"
He leaned down towards Joanna, whispers in her ear. "I'm sorry Chris" Jack springs back up. "Wa-say kohn. Een dah-lah. Eeseepi"
"Tell 'em to let me down" Will shouted.
If Will would keep his mouth shut we can survive, stupid boy he is sometimes.
Jack started blabbering again. "Kay-lay lam. Lam piki-piki. Lam eensy weensy. Lam say-say... eunuchy. Snip-snip"
Jack begins to walk away, as if disinterested, his Compass hangs from his waist, which catches Will's attention.
"Jack! The Compass! That's all I need, Elizabeth is in danger. We were arrested for trying to help you. She faces the gallows!"
Jack stops in his tracks, pauses, turns around and casually walks back.
What are you thinking Jack? Joanna thought.
"Say-say lam shoop-shoop sha smalay-lama shoo-koo. Savvy? Ball licky-licky" Jack said to the cannibals.
"Ball licky-licky!" They all shouted.
The cannibals begin chanting, repetitiously.
Jack moved over to Joanna and Will again, leaned over. "Save me!"
Will didn't know what to do. "Jack, what did you tell them?" He was shouting as they were both being carried away. "No! What about Elizabeth? Jack!"
The two were carried across a rope bridge, still hanging underneath the bamboo pole, Joanna was struggling to get free while Will kept on shouting.
"Can you please shut up?!" Chris yelled. "You talking to Jack could of ruined our chance to save him"
"Why wasn't he listening to me?"
"He's keeping himself safe as any other pirate would do"
Their bonds were cut and dragged into cages, to there surprise the rest of the crew was already there.
"Bloody hell" Joanna whispered.
They were hoisted into the air in the cages, hanging thousands of feet above the water. 6 crew members per cage they were in. Will and Joanna were in the same cage with Gibbs, Cotton, and two others.
I don't understand, if Jack is their chief. Why were we locked in?"
"Aye, the Pelegostos made Jack their chief. But he only remains chief as long as he acts like a chief" Gibbs responded.
"Is that why you never came back for me?"
"Aye, sorry my dear"
"So he had no choice. He's a captive then as much as the rest of us" Will said not pleased with his capture.
"Worse... as it turns out. See, the Pelegostos believe that Jack is a god in human form, and they intend to do him the honor of releasing him from his fleshy prison"
Cotton bites Gibbs' fingers to illustrate what he meant. "Argh! They'll roast him and eat him"
"What?! If they touch him I will murder each and everyone of them!"
"Where's the rest of the crew?"
Gibbs was looking rather upset. "These cages we're in... weren't built 'til after we got here"
Will was gripping the bars made of human bones, but quickly pulls his hand away. "Shit"
"The feast is about to begin. Jack's life will end... when the drums stop" Gibbs stated, staring off into space.
"We can't just sit here and wait then, we have to save Jack!" Joanna was shouting now, angry at the situation.
I need to save Jack... this damn crew doesn't care about their captain, well dammit I do, I do more than care about him, I love him, and I will save him. Joanna was furiously thinking to herself.
"Move!" Will shouted pushing the cage forward.
The crew began swinging the cages with increasingly wide arcs, both cages finally come within reach of the cliff, they grab vines and hang on to the cliff.
"Put your legs through, start to climb!" Gibbs shouted pulling up the cage.
"Come on men! It'll take all of us to crew the Black Pearl!" Will obviously didn't know what he was talking about.
"You won't need everyone. 'Bout six would do!" Chris pauses and looks over to the other cage. "Shit!"
Gibbs nods to the crew at least Will got what he meant.
Will panicked "Hurry!"
Each cage group begins racing against each other up the cliff, all of the crew shouting at one another, some words not so nice, but Will noticed something that no one seemed to realize a cannibal crosses the rope bridge.
"Hey! Hey" He said trying to get everyone's attention. "Stop!"
Joanna looks up and agrees with Will. "Stop! Stop!"
"Shhh! Shhh!" One crew member said.
Leech still thought it was a good idea to climb. "Shhh!"
The other cage group decides to take the risk of climbing, despite the nearby cannibal.
"Are you mad? What's are you doing? Stop!" Will whispered.
Because of their stupidity one of the men in the climbing cage grabs a coral snake from the cliff instead of a vine, he screams, the man holding the snake lets go, their cage falls, the rope breaks, and their cage falls to the bottom of the pit. The cannibal that was crossing the bridge witnessed the fall and runs off.
"Shit! Move!" Joanna shouted moving quicker than before.
Finally the crew made it over the edge of the cliff, frantically finding a way to escape.
"Cut it loose! Find a rock!"Will manages to sever the cage's cable by hammering it with a rock moments later.
The men are unable to get the cage open in time, the cannibal's have already made there way back to the group
Joanna hatched an idea. "Roll the cage!"
The men didn't even hesitate, they roll the cage down the hill. The cage falls over the edge of a tiny cliff and falls into the water, breaking finally. The Cannibals throw their spears and shoot arrows at the men in the water.
"This way, lads!" Gibbs shouted swimming his way out of the water.
The small group makes there way onto the beach away from the crazy men that were not far behind them, when they see the Pearl was already back into the water, Pintel and Ragetti were on board already.
Gibbs was happy to see the Pearl was at least in the water. "Excellent work! Work's half done! Make ready to sail, cast-off those's lines, boy"
"What about Jack? I won't leave without him" Joanna wasn't getting on the ship till Jack was here.
Jack appears at a distance, running down the beach toward the crew and ship, a crowd of cannibals suddenly run down on the beach behind Jack, pursuing him. "Hey!"
"Time to go" Will grabbed Joanna and pulled her on board, kicking and screaming.
Jack screams while running down the beach. "Hey! Chris!" Jack was frantically running to make it to her. he grabs a hold of rigging on the side of the departing ship. "Alas, my children! This is the day
you shall always remember as the day that you almost -" A big wave splashes Jack from behind. "...Captain Jack... Sparrow"
"Thank god" Chris sighed in relief.
