The crew was starting to emerge out of the water and onto the beaches. Coughs were being heard from everyone as they made it onto land. Gibbs was slowly making his way onto the sand and he looked around. "This is truly a godforsaken place," He mutters.
"I don't see Jack," Elizabeth said as she came up beside Gibbs. "I don't see anyone," She continued as she squinted her eyes.
Barbosa then steps onto land and says, "He's here. Davy Jones never gave up what he took."
"Until now!" Carmella said as she was wringing out her hair. The others turned to look at her before Will spoke up.
"Does it matter?" He asked. "We're trapped here by your doing, no different than Jack."
Faye and Carmella were standing next to Tia. Faye's eyes were on Jack the monkey who was standing in front of her as he hugged the map. He chatters as he watched the crabs crawl on by.
"Witty Jack," Tia said as she picked up a crab and was petting it. "He's closer than you think," She said with a grin. Her eyes then went to the giant mast that appeared over the sand dune. Gibbs and the others were watching in confusion and astonishment.
The ship rounded over the top as Jack was standing on top of the sail. Faye just shook her head. She then looked over to Carmella who was grinning with her.
Tai Wong mutters, "Impossible…."
Ragetti just stares as he pointed towards the boat. All he could muster was, "...boat."
Carmella couldn't help but crack up laughing at what the pirate had said.
"Slap me thrice and hand me to my momma. It's Jack," Gibbs said in shock as he moved towards the boat. Elizabeth was going to go with him but faltered and stopped.
Jack soon came to shore on a rowboat. The crew then ran towards him. "It's the captain!" Cried Pintel.
"He's a sight for sore eyes!" Gibbs said with a smile. "Jack!"
"Mr. Gibbs!" Jack replied.
"Aye Captain?" He asked.
"Thought so," Jack said with a nod, "I expect you are able to account for your actions then."
Gibbs then furrowed his brow in confusion, "Sir?"
"There's been an impetuous and violent lack of discipline on my vessel. Why? Why is that sir!"
"Sir, you're …" He said as he looked towards the crew before returning his gaze to Jack. "You're in Davy Jones Locker...captain."
Jack then flicked his eyes over the surroundings for just a split second before replying, "I know that." Gibbs nodded. "I know where I am and don't think I don't."
Barbossa then walked over. "Jack Sparrow."
"Ah! Hector! Been too long. Hasn't it?" Jack said as he made his way over to Barbossa.
"Aye, Isla de Muerta, remember? You shot me."
Jack seemed to think for a minute before responding, "No I didn't." He then turned and addressed Tia. "Tia Dalma. Out and about aye? You add an agreeable sense of macabre to any delirium." She just smiled at him.
"JACK!" Carmella and Faye both yelled as they jumped him in a bone crushing hug.
"Girls." He said happily while at the same time with a bit of melancholy.
"He thinks we're a hallucination." Will deadpanned.
The girls reluctantly let go of Jack as he looked towards Will. "William tell me something. Have you come because you need me to help save some certain distressing damsel or rather damsel in distress? Either way." He said as he stood in front of him.
"No." Was his short reply.
"Well then you wouldn't be here? Would you? So you can't be here. Q E D you're not really here." He seemed to try to convince himself.
He then heard the last voice that he ever wanted to hear.
"Jack?" Elizabeth stepped forward through the crowd. "This is real. We're here."
Jack seemed to finally figure out that all of this was really happening. He then ran to Gibbs. "The Locker you say?"
"Aye," replied Gibbs.
Elizabeth stepped forward, "We've come to rescue you."
He turned around, "Have you now?" he asked sarcastically. "That's very kind of you. But it seems that I possess a ship and you don't, you are the ones in need of rescuing. And I'm not sure that I'm in the mood."
"I see my ship, right there," Barbossa said as he pointed to the ship in the water.
Jack stepped forward and placed his hand over his eyes to block out the light. "Can't spot it, must be a tiny, little thing hiding behind the Pearl."
Will now stepped forward, "Jack. Cutler Beckett has the heart of Davy Jones. He controls the Flying Dutchman."
Elizabeth came and stood next to him, "He's taking over the seas."
Tia commented, "The song has already been sung, the Brethren Court has been called. The girls witnessed this."
Jack then said, "Leave you people alone for just a minute and look what happens, everything's gone apart." He then walks away. Trying to ignore them.
Gibbs said, "Aye, Jack, the world needs you back something fierce."
Will replied, "And you need a crew."
Jack turned toward the crowd and said, "Why should I sail with any of you, other than the girls? Four of you have tried to kill me in the past, one of you succeeded."
Will looked at Elizabeth in shock. Elizabeth couldn't say anything.
Jack saw this as he said, "Oh, she has not told you."
Carmella then walked up to Elizabeth with narrowed eyes. She gave a face of pure anger before reeling her arm back and letting a hard slap go across Elizabeth's face. Elizabeth turned back with a hand where the impact was made. She looked astonished as to what had happened. "You had no right," she hissed before walking back to Faye who hugged her with Tia trying to comfort her. All the while the eyes of the two women were glaring at her.
"You'll have loads to talk about while you're here," Jack said as he came back towards them. Happy that he had gotten reactions from his goddaughters. He then went up to Tia and the girls. "As for you, you're coming as well as the girls. That's a definite." Tia just gave a smile.
"Don't need you, you scare me," Jack remarks as he went from Tia to Ragetti. Ragetti then blinks before the captain moved to Gibbs. "Gibbs you come, Marty,...ew." He said the last part to Pintel. "Cotton...Cotton's parrot, I"m a little iffy, but at least I'll have someone to talk to." He then went and looked at the Asian men. "Who are you?"
"Tai Wong," The man said. "And these are my men."
"Where do your allegiances lie," Jack asked.
"With the highest bidder," Tai said with a smirk.
Jack then smirks, "I have a ship."
"That makes you the highest bidder,"
"Good man," Jack smirked before Carmella and Faye brought their bodyguards over to him.
"Don't forget Mei and Su, they are pretty much our protection," Carmella said. Mei and Su bowed in respect to him.
"All the better," Jack said with a stern nod. "Weigh anchor, all hands prepare to make sail!" He said as he opened up his compass. It was spinning too much and he knew it was useless there. He then closed it.
"Jack,' Barbossa said as he held the map. Jack the monkey was now on his shoulder. "Which way you going, Jack?" He asked. The monkey screeched.
Back on the boat, Barbossa was giving orders as men were getting ready to sail. "Trim that sail!" He shouted as Jack was following behind him and repeating everything he said. Trying to get back in control of his ship.
"Slack windward brakes!" Barbossa continued. "Hold the pennant line!" He was getting annoyed with Jack after he kept repeating him, he turned to him and asked. "What are ye doing?"
"What are you doing?" Jack replied back.
"No, what are ye doing?"
"No, what you doing."
"No, what are ye doing?"
"What are you doing/ Captain gives orders on the ship," Jack said.
"The captain of the ship IS giving orders," Barbossa replied.
Jack then gave a look. "My ship makes me captain."
"They be my charts!"
"That makes you, chartman," Jack explains.
"Stow it! The both of you, that's an order!" Screamed Pintel at the two captains. "Understand!"
The two were silent as they looked at him in shock. Nearby, Carmella was cracking up at the interaction. The two guards were following in their master's footsteps by giggling in the background.
Pintel then he stepped back and raised a hand sheepishly, "...sorry. I just thought that with the captain issue, I'd throw in my name for consideration," He said before repeating a sorry and backing away from them towards Ragetti. The two men started to push each other's side as they made their way up to the upper deck.
"They' are like two squabbling children," Carmella whispered to Faye as she nodded in return.
Ragetti then patted Pintel's shoulder, "I'd vote for you."
Barbossa then took out his spyglass and extended it to look out the sea. Jack seeing this went to stand beside him and take out his own spyglass and did the same thing. Barbossa seeing how he failed, gave a smirk and continued to look out into the water.
