Hi. I'm back again i had some trouble getting back into the story but i had a wave of inspiration so here i am with another chapter, i hope you enjoy it as much as i do :) read. review, fave, and follow 3 bye for now
The Black Pearl crew look over at the destroyed ship on the rocks, but could hardly see it because of the rain.
Will wiped the rain from his eyes, he turns back to look at Jack unimpressed. "That's the Flying Dutchman? She doesn't look like much"
Jack stroked his beard not realizing that was the hand the black spot was on. "Neither do you. Do not underestimate her"
Jack gives Gibbs a meaningful glance, but he doesn't catch on he instead elbows him in the stomach, Gibbs sputters a bit.
"Must've run afoul of the reef"
"So how do you intend to conquer your quest?" Joanna asked stepping in front of them.
Will gave them a serious look, not happy because of the rain. "I row over, search the ship until I find your bloody key"
Jack was curious as to what his plan entailed. "And if there are crewmen?"
Will was gripping the edge of the ship. "I cut down anyone in my path"
Jack looked back to Joanna and Gibbs, he nodes. "I like it. Simple, easy to remember"
Ragetti was atop of the the roping swinging around. "Your chariot awaits you, sire! Ha, ha-ha-ha, ha-ha!" He laughed.
Will got down into the dingy. "Fucking pirates"
"Hey! If you do happen to get captured, just say Jack Sparrow sent you to settle his debt! Might save your life!"
"Jack do you think he'll make it?" Joanna asked worried for his life.
Jack didn't care if he lived or not he just wanted the key, so ignoring Joanna, he went on his way. "Douse the lamps"
Marty douses a lamp, then Cotton douses a lamp and finally Pintel douses his lamp. Will sets off in a rowboat, alone, toward the broken ship.
"Jack! Do not ignore me" Joanna pulled out her sword at him. "It will be the last thing you ever do"
"Love... put the bloody sword away"
"Your going to get yourself killed!" As she said that he put his eye scope to his eye.
Jack was paying close attention to Will on the other ship, through a spyglass, Jack sees Jones turn to look directly at him, suddenly Jones is standing aboard the Black Pearl, directly in front of Jack and his spyglass. Joanna and Gibbs have knives to their throats from other Flying Dutchman crew members who teleported over with Jones.
Jack was not happy his future wife being threatened."Oi! You can hold me crew hostage but the lady is off limits even to you Jones" Jack wasn't playing games this time, he meant it"
Jones motioned his crew to let go of Joanna. "You have a debt to pay. You've been captain of the Black Pearl for thirteen years. That was our agreement"
Jack tried to reason with him. Technically, I was only captain for two years, then I was viciously mutinied upon"
Davy Jones knew this to be true but he didn't care. "Then you were a poor captain, but a captain nonetheless! Have you not introduced yourself all these years as Captain Jack Sparrow?"
"The ship is mine now!" Joanna spoke up.
"You think you can get out of your debt by handing over your ship to a woman? You are still a captain nonetheless"
"You have my payment. One soul to serve on your ship is already over there" Jack said trying to get over to Joanna.
"One soul is not equal to another"
"Aha! So we've established my proposal is sound in principle, now we're just haggling over price"
Joanna rolled her eyes, why doesn't he just keep his mouth shut?
Davy Jones was confused now. "Price? Pttt!" He made a popping noise with his mouth.
Jack was intrigued "Just how many souls do you think my soul is worth?"
"One hundred souls, three days-uh"
"Oh for hell's sake! Were gonna die" Joanna started to cry.
Jack was pleased with his offer. "You're a diamond, mate. Send me back the boy, I'll get started right off"
Maccus blocks Jack from getting to Joanna again.
"I keep the boy. A good-faith payment. That leaves you only ninety-nine more to go"
"Are you sure ye want him? He is after all engaged to be married, to a woman, rather annoying, flighty woman"
Joanna was done with Jack's nonsense, Will was already gone there's no way to save him. "Jack just let him keep Will"
"I keep the boy. Ninety-nine souls. But I wonder, Sparrow, can you live with this? Can you condemn an innocent man, a friend, to a lifetime of servitude, in your name while you roam free?"
"Yep! I'm good with it. Should we seal it in blood? I mean... mm-mm, ink?" Jones grabs Jack's hand, resulting in a squishy sound. "Uh!" Jack groaned.
"Three days" Jones voice echo's.
Jack looks at his hand, it's covered with slime, but the black spot disappears under the effect of the slime.
"Oh, Mr. Gibbs"
"Aye?"
"Uh, I feel the sudden need for a good bottle and a mad bar fight"
"And how do you intend to harvest these ninety-nine souls in three days?"
"Fortunately, he wasn't clear to the condition in which these souls need be found"
"Ah... Tortuga then!" Gibbs was excited to be going back to Tortuga.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
When they arrived at the island the whole crew wanders off, while Gibbs, Jack, Joanna go to the singing lady inn to find some drunken men to hire in.
when they entered the whole place was crowded, glass bottles are being shot off of people's
heads for entertainment a duo of musicians are playing their guitars.
"Joanna why don't you get us some rum"
"Oh aye, good luck with your 99 souls"
"I don't need luck love, just you"
Joanna makes her way to the counter to order some rum but as she was ordering a gypsy woman came up to here.
"Would you like to know ye future dearie?"
"No I don't believe what your kind have to say"
"Your future looks very grim"
"Oh?" Joanna looked almost shocked.
"Yer child will be healthy but yer husband will perish"
Joanna was furious at this gypsy woman. "You lie!"
"I only tell what I see" She said remaining calm.
"Leave me alone"
The bartender hands Joanna three mugs and as she was about to drink from one but the lady spoke up again.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you, bad for the baby"
"Seven hells! Woman would you please leave me be?"
She walks away from the table where Chris still resided, she tilled the mug towards her mouth but stopped mid way and set the glass down.
"Fucking mystic shit" She mumbled under her breath.
Chris walked over to the table where Jack is, sitting alongside the wall, trying to make his Compass work.
Jack viciously shakes his compass to make it work. "I know what I want.
"And what is it that you want Jackie?" Joanna asked as she swung her leg around to straddle Jack's lap, whilst holding onto the mugs still.
"Next!" They could here Gibbs shouting.
"Only you love, but this bloody thing only points to you" He shakes it again.
"I see, well good luck with that"
Chris makes her way to Gibbs careful not to knock into anyone, subconsciously she was afraid of what that woman told her and didn't want to risk anything.
"How we going?" Joanna asked handing Gibbs his mug.
Gibbs was rather annoyed with all these men, but tried to put on a face for her. "That gives us.. four!"
"No need to be upset Gibbs will just kill em as we go"
Gibbs looks to the next candidate in line. "And what's your story?"
"My story... it's exactly the same as your story, just one chapter behind. I chased a man across the Seven Seas. The pursuit cost me my crew, my commission, and my life"
Joanna couldn't believe what was coming out of this guys mouth, he couldn't possible James. "Commodore?"
"No, not anymore, weren't you listening? I nearly had you all, off Tripoli. I would have, if not for the... hurricane" He said cold.
"Do you forget who your talking to?"
"Shut up Joanna, you were a liar since I met you, So do I make your crew, or not? You haven't said where you're going. Somewhere nice!" Norrington yelled flipping over the table.
The music stops, everyone stares at the altercation, Jack grabs a branch from a vase, carries it in front of his face, attempts to walk out unseen by his old enemy.
"So am I worthy to serve under Captain Jack Sparrow?" Norrington spots Jack sneaking off behind him, so he points his pistol at Jack. "Or should I just kill you now?"
Joanna panics, Jack ducks back and forth behind both sides of a large post, as Norrington points his pistol at Jack.
"You're hired" Jack tried to sound enthusiastic.
"Sorry. Old habits and all that" Norrington points to gun and tries to fire.
Joanna rams into James and makes him misfire the ball ricochets off the chandelier, breaking a man's bottle as he's drinking from it, the man whose bottle broke slugs a man next to him, the music starts back up as a brawl ensues, one man swings from chandelier, women fight, bottles are thrown
against the wall.
Jack was watching the fight go down, he turns to Joanna. "Time to go?"
"Aye!" Joanna agreed.
A swordfight is going on downstairs, someone throws a bottle against the wall above the stairs, Jack
ducks as it smashes above his head, Jack makes his way upstairs, trading hats a few times along
the way
"Thanks, mate" Jack said placing a hat on his head.
Jack slaps him on the shoulder, the man falls backwards off the balcony, Jack halts to let two men carrying another man proceed towards the edge of the balcony, taking the hat off the one man, placing it on his head back to the guy who was being thrown off the balcony.
"Carry on" Jack stepped out of the way.
The two men throw the carried man off the balcony, then Jack continues on his way, the music stops, Norrington threateningly holds a bottle in his left hand.
"Joanna hold on" Jack said stopping her.
"Come on, men! Who wants some? Form an orderly line, I'll have you all one by one. Come on, who's first?" Norrington shouted like an idiot.
From behind, Elizabeth comes out of no where, grabs the bottle from Norrington, smashes it over his head, knocking him out.
"Now we run!" Jack said moving again.
"I just wanted the pleasure of doing that myself!" You could hear her shouting in the back ground.
