You finally pulled into Tortuga. It almost felt good to be on a mission again. Kicking ass and taking names.

"Jack Sparrow? Yeah I know 'im. The man owes me four doubloons. Heard he was dead." Is what you heard from a man cleaning his ship

"Singapore. That's what I heard. Drunk with a smile on his face. Sure as a tide. Jack Sparrow, will turn up in Singapore." Is what you heard from a fisherman.

"Jack Sparrow? We haven't seen him in a month. When you find him will you give him this message?" Is what you heard from two bar whores who followed their statement with a hard slap to Wills face. You already had a feeling Jack deserved it.

"Can't say much about Jack Sparrow. But there's an island just south of the straights where i trade spice for delicious long pork. Can't say much about Jack. But there's a ship there. A ship with black sails." Is what you heard from an African spice trader. And it was also your best lead. You went back to the ship that the Royal Navy had given you and Will and you headed for that island with the Jamaican man and his crew. Sure enough, you saw the Pearl.

"My brother will row you to shore." The man said. You and Will climbed into the boat with the mans brother, who was about the size of two people, to say the least. Suddenly the man stopped rowing.

"What's the deal we're only halfway to shore?" Will asked. The man started speaking a language you did not know really fast. It looked like you and Will were going to have to jumped. As you both stood up, the man sounded like he was trying to warn you, but you had a certain pirate to convince to come back to Port Royal. So into the water you and Will jumped. You and Will climbed ashore.

"Jack!! Jack Sparrow!!" Will shouted. The ship looked washed up, and long abandoned. The worst came to your mind.

"You think it's going to be that easy?" You questioned.

"You know you could help more instead of only offering sarcastic comments." Will looked at you, annoyed.

"The ship is washed up. For all we know Sparrow could be dead. That might actually solve our problems so let's just go back and tell that to Beckett." You explained. Hoping to leave what seemed like a hopeless mission.

"You think it's going to be that easy?" Will mocked you.

"Whatever." You rolled your eyes and kept searching. You and Will tracked the woods when a familiar bird flew up to you.

"Ah. So we can't find the crew nore Jack but we can find you." You said, exasperated.

"Brackkk don't eat me." The bird said.

"I'm not going to eat you..?" Will looked at the bird skeptically. You continued your trek into the woods. You found what looked like Gibbs flask. Whom you actually were a little concerned about. It was attached to a rope. So you and Will followed, careful to keep quiet.

Which ended up doing no good and both you and Will were suddenly suspended by the rope in the trees, swinging around your swords to no avail, when a group of heavily painted men surrounded you.

"Come on! Who wants it! Face me cowards!" Will quickly realized he wasn't going to get out that easy, as he was soon shot with some sort of dart and went limp.

"The hell was that for!" You shouted. They quickly turned to you.

"Okay! Point taken." You said as you dropped your sword. The natives took you and Will prisoner. Or at least that's what you had hoped.

You and Will were both tied to a giant stick like a pig on a roast through their village, assuming you were being brought to their leader, but instead. A certain pirate stood in front of you.

"Jack!" You shouted. He looked at you with the most surprise you've ever seen from a man. Will also came to.

"Jack! Jack Sparrow!" Will shouted with relief.

"I can honestly say I'm happy to see you. Tell them to set us free!" He said as he hung from the stick. Jack looked at you, then walked up. Suddenly you had the feeling he wasn't going to be much help. You realized that he might not be happy to see you. He walked up and touched Will on the shoulder, speaking the native language you did not understand. He gestured to Will once again.

"Eunichy. Snip snip." Is the only part you caught, but even you were too scared to even chuckle. Jack turned to walk away.

"Jack! The compass is all I need. Elizabeth is in jail. We were arrested for trying to free you! We all face the gallows!" Will said with alarm. Jack quickly turned around. He continued to speak the unknown language. He came up to you and Will.

"Save me." He whispered quickly. Suddenly you and Will were being taken as the natives hauled you off.

"No Jack! What did you tell them you dimwit!" You shouted at him.

"Jack!" Will screamed. You and Will were taken to where you found the rest of you crew, in a giant ball shaped cage suspended over a canyon. The rest of the crew was held in another.

"So they take us as prisoners and make Jack chief?" You asked Gibbs.

"Well, the pelegostos made him chief. As long as he stays acting like it." Gibbs answered.

"So he's just as much a prisoner as the rest of us?" Will asked.

"Worse." Gibbs rasped. "You see the pelegostos think Jack is one of their gods in a human form. And they intend to do the honor of releasing him from his human form." Gibbs explained. A crew member tried to eat his finger and he quickly hit him.

"They will roast him and eat him." Gibbs finished.

"You see if we had left well enough alone Jack would be dead for real and we'd have freedom." You angrily looked at Will.

"It's not Jack it's the compass Beckett is after." Will seethed back.

"Do you two ever quit yer sibling bickerin'?" Gibbs asked, exasperated.

"Where's the rest of the crew?" Will asked.

"These cages, weren't built until after we got here." Gibbs answered. You quickly noticed the cages were made of human bone.

"The feast will begin. Jacks life will end. As soon as the drums stop." Gibbs answered as he looked up. You felt that yours would end soon too.
