Jack Sparrow's Rose - At Worlds end.

Chapter 20: The Maelstrom

General POV.

On beckett's ship the wind had started to pick up to.

He was trying tea.

When one of his first mates came up.

'the wind is in our favor sir.'

'Oh so we do.' Beckett answered.

'Signal Jones to give no quarter.

That should lighten his mood.' Beckett said while putting an extra cube of sugar in his cup.

And so it happends.

Soldiers were signaling to each other that the Dutchman should give no Quarter.

Mr. Mercer picked that up and yelled to everyone on board.

'To arms! We give no quarter!' Mr. Mercer yelled

The sails were brought down and the Dutchman picked up speed.

Jones turned around looking at the sky.

Seeing a dark could form in front of them.

His eyes turned big.

'Calypso..' Jones softly said.

And when he had spoken that name the clouds started rumbling with thunder.

And it started to rain..

Rain hard..

Jones felt the water fall on his face and he closed his eyes.

Like Calypso was touching him with her hands.

But then the tender feeling got replaced with rage.

And he started screaming that they should give no quarter.

Back to the Black Pearl.

'Have you noticed, on top of everything, it's raining?' Pintel said outraged towards Ragetti.

'That's a bad sign' Ragetti answered.

Gibbs came walking through them.

'Man the capstan. Raise the main topyard. Keep that powder dry!' Gibbs gave orders towards the crew.

Suddenly the thunder clapped and Rose walked over to the rail and looked over it.

'MAELSTROM!' Rose yelled towards the crew.

She ran up to the helm.

'Captain Barbossa!

We need you at the helm.' She said walking up to Barbossa.

He turned towards Rose with a serious face.

And then he smirked.

'Aye that be true!' He walked to the helm and pushed Cotton away from it.

'Brace up yards, you cack-handed deck apes.

Dying is the day worth living for!' Barbossa yelled towards the crew.

Making Rose smirk and she ran on the main deck to help everyone out.

And so did Will.

On the Dutchman.

'Veer off!' Mr. Mercer yelled to the crew.

And the man at the helm started turning away.

Davy Jones came forward and pushed the man of the helm.

'She'll not harm us.' He yelled.

'Full-bore and into the Abyss.' Jones yelled to his crew.

'Are you mad?' Mr. Mercer yelled at Jones walking up to him.

'Ha! You afraid to get wet?' Jones spat at Mr. Mercer.

'She's on our stern and gaining!' Will yelled to Barbossa.

To which Barbossa yelled forward.

'More speed! Haul your wind and hold your water.' Barbossa yelled.

And so did the Pearl enter the Maelstrom.

Jones was steering himself back into the Strom.

'Bow cannons!' Jones yelled at his crew.

The Dutchman started firing their front cannons at the Pearl.

And they got hit.

'Take us out or they'll overbear us' Will said to Barbossa.

'Nay, further in.

We'll cut across to faster waters.' Barbossa answered Will.

'Prepare to Broadside!' Rose yelled to the crew.

And so did Barbossa.

He pulled the helm completely so that the Pearl would enter deeper into the Maelstrom.

'Captain the guns! Bear a hand.' Gibbs yelled.

'Muster your courage, men.

At the ready!' Will yelled at the crew.

On board of the Dutchman.

Jack was still locked up in the brig.

He was speaking to himself.

Quite literally.

Since Jack had been stuck in the locker.

Sometimes he could see more versions of himself.

They would help him make choises

Or come up with plans.

Just like now.

'Think like the whelp.. think like the whelp.

Half barrel hinges.'

'Leverage.' Jack said to himself.

He took an bench and put it between the hinges.

Just like Will did when he helped Jack escape from Port Royal.

And so it worked the door fell on the floor and Jack could step out.

'Batten down the hatches!' Gibbs yelled to the crew.

And he went below deck.

'Stand to your guns.

Midship cannoneers, sight the masts.'

The Pearl was opening all there cannon places to fire at the Dutchman.

But on the Dutchman they were doing exactly the same thing.

'Hold there!

Wait till we're board-and-board.' Gibbs said

And when the Pearl and the Dutchman were right at each others side.

Rose yelled.

'FIRE!'

Barbossa and Will took over and yelled Fire to.

And so the Pearl started firing their cannons towards the Dutchman.

On the Dutchman they were doing exactly the same.

So it was one shooting range.

They were destroying each other's ships completely.

'It be too late to alter course now, mateys.!' Barbossa yelled to the crew and he laughed devilish after that.

Rose smirked.

Even tho Barbossa could be a real pain in their asses.

He knew what he was doing.

And she loved his expressions.
