General POV

'Prepare the brig' Mr. Mercer said.

'Beckett agreed the Black Pearl was to be mine.' Sao Feng said to Mr. Mercer.

'Lord Beckett is not going to give up the only ship as can outrun the Dutchman, is he?' Mr. Mercer said to Sao Feng.

And then he walked further.

'Shame they're not bound to honor the code of the Brethren, isn't it?' Barbossa asked Sao Feng.

To which Rose smirked. Standing next to him.

'Because honor's a hard thing to come by nowadays.' Barbossa said looking at both Sao Feng and then to Will.

'There is no honor to remaining with the losing side.

Leaving it for the winning side, that's just good business.' Sao Feng spat at Barbossa.

'The losing side, you say?' Rose said towards Sao Feng.

'They have the Dutchman.' Sao Feng spat.

'And now the Pearl!

And what do the Brethren have?' Sao Feng spat at Barbossa.

'We have.. Calypso.' Barbossa said

Sao Feng looked at Rose for a brief moment.

And then chuckled.

'Calypso..

And old legend.' Sao Feng said.

Barbossa was looking behind him making eye contact with Rose.

To which Rose fastly nodded.

'No..' Barbossa started to Sao Feng.

'The goddess herself, bound in human form.

Imagine all the power of the seas brought to bear against our enemy.

I intend to release her.

But for that I need the Brethren Court.' Barbossa spoke to Sao Feng.

He took the small token around Sao Feng his neck. And lifted it a bit.

'All the Court.' He spoke to Barbossa.

Back to Jack and Beckett.

Jack still had been looking in every drawer and cupboard for something.

And then he found an woman's hand fan.

He was waving it around trying to find his accord with Beckett.

'You can keep Barbosa.

The belligerent homunculus and his friend with the wooden eye, both.

And Turner. Especially Turner.

The rest go with me on the Pearl.

I'll lead you to Shipwreck Cove,

Where I will hand you the pirates and you will not hand me to Jones.

Bloody fair deal, don't you think?' Jack proposed to Beckett.

'And what becomes of Miss Rivers?' Beckett asked holding a coin.

'What is she of interest to you.' Jack clapped in the hand fan.

To which Beckett chuckled.

'That's none of your concern.

But Jack.' Beckett stood up.

'I just recalled, I've got this wonderful compass, which points to whatever I want.' Beckett said walking past Jack.
