General POV

The whole freeing Calypso think felt like a flop.

Nothing had happened and the crew is questioning her loyalty.


But suddenly the wind picked up.

It took the hat on top of an crewmembers hat and it started flying upwards.

Rose turned around and followed the hat with her eyes.

In stead of the clear blue sky. There were clouds fastly coming forward.

Rose felt the wind on her face.

And walked towards the sails.

'It's not over.'

Will agreed with Rose.

'There's still a fight to be had.'

'We've an armada against us, and with the Dutchman, there's no chance.' Gibbs softly replied to Will.

'There's only a fool's chance.' Rose answered Gibbs.

Barbossa came walking up towards Rose.

'Revenge won't bring Elizabeth's father back, Miss Rivers.' Barbossa said.

'Nor will it free you of your burden.

And it's not something I'm intending to die for.'

Rose swallowed her words before she turned around looking at Barbossa.

Her look stood serious and almost cold.

'You're right.' Rose simply said to him.

She then walked past Barbossa , towards the crew.

She stood in front of the crewmembers and she looked around to all of them.

Rose then turned back to Barbossa.

'Then what shall we die for?' Rose asked Barbossa.

'You will listen to me.' Rose said her facial expression was brave and serious.

'Listen!' Rose yelled

She was walking through the crew and towards the nets to climb up to the sails.

She jumped up so she could hold it.

So the other ships could see her.

'The Brethren will still be looking here to us, To the Black Pearl, to lead.

And what will they see?

Frightened bilge rats aboard a derelict ship? No!' Rose yelled at the crew.

'No they will see free men and freedom!

And what the enemy will see is the flash of our cannons.

They will hear the ring of our swords, and they will know what we can do!' Rose spat at everyone.

Will was looking at her with open mouth.

Gibbs was looking like he saw Rose her father speak to him.

Barbossa had raised an eyebrow, he didn't know she had it in her.

And the other people of the crew were dead silent listening to her.

'By the sweat of our brows,

And the strength of our backs...

And the courage of our hearts. ' Rose yelled holding her hand on her heart.

'Gentlemen...

Ladies...' Rose looked at Ana Maria and Elizabeth.

Will was looking at her and nodded.

And so was Gibbs.

'Hoist the colors.' Rose said on a normal tone.

'Hoist the colors.' Will said directly after her.

'Hoist the colors!' Ana Maria screamed.

'Hoist the colors!' Pintel and Ragetti yelled

'Hoist the colors !!' Elizabeth yelled to the crew.

'Aye!. The wind's on our side, boys.

That's all we need!' Gibbs yelled to the crew.

All the crewmembers were lifting their swords yelling.

Then Rose turned around facing the ship of her. Or Sao Feng's

'HOIST THE COLORS!' Rose screamed at them.

To which the crew lifted their swords and were yelling with the Pearl.

'Hoist the colors!'

And so on, in every Brethren lord Pirate ship, everyone started running around hoisting the colors.

Preparing to sail out.

To fight for their freedom.

Against Beckett.

And against Dead himself.

Davy Jones.

Rose was walking up towards the rear of the ship.

Looking over everyone preparing the ship for battle.

Barbossa came up the stairs and walked over to her.

And on the other side of the stairs came Will

And he stood next to her to.

'Miss Rivers.

Before we die. I wanted to tell you something.

It's a honor to fight beside you.' Barbossa said while looking straight forward.

To which Rose couldn't help but let out a small smile.

And so did Will. who gave her a pet on the back.
