Hi guys thanks for reading. Ilysm dears and I hope yall enjoy this. The gayness is immense in this one.

Third person pov

The crew of the Black Pearl walk along the sea bed towards the Dauntless, the moonlight that filters through the water turning them into skeletons.

Norrington and the men that he'd stayed with off the ship notice a rowboat, with what looks like two women inside, their parasols hiding their entire upper bodies.

The men look at each other in confusion before raising their bayonets but Norrington commands them to hold their fire.

Meanwhile on the Dauntless, the skeleton crew slip on board unnoticed and take out the few watchmen and guards posted along the deck who were too distracted by the 'women' in the rowboat.

The Governor stands outside the door of the room where they'd locked Elizabeth in to protect her.

"I'm very proud of the decision you made, but I want you to know that even the right decision, made for the wrong reason, can be a bad thing," he says but Elizabeth doesn't reply.

She's occupied by the rope that she's weaving to escape.

Her father grows suspicious and enters the room, but he's too late, she's already in the emergency rowboat and on her way to help Jack and Will by the time that he finds the rope attached to the railing on the balcony.

But he is lucky that he closed the door behind him because it prevents him from being found by the murderous pirates that have by now been noticed by the English crew.

Many men die in the fight that ensues, but not Norrington nor any of his squadron are harmed, well, their egos are, but they're not physically harmed.

Elizabeth gets to the chamber of Cortez to find Will fighting off half a dozen pirates, and Jack duelling Barbossa. She grabs a sword from the ground and runs over to help Will.

He acknowledges her with a smile before they're separated. Out of the corner of her eye she sees Jack being pushed back by Barbossa, and Will trying to make his way over to the chest.

Jack slips but quickly regains his balance but it leaves him winded and completely on the defensive. Barbossa's strikes are getting faster and closer to reaching their mark when he just can't hold him off and Barbossa stabs him in the gut. He clutches at the sword that goes right through him and Elizabeth stifles a scream as he stumbles back into the moonlight.

His skin disappears and he inspects his hand in the light, saying, "that's interesting," before revealing to Barbossa the medallion that he'd taken.

They continue fighting up to the highest point of the chamber before Jack gains the upper hand and kicks Barbossa, who stumbles and rolls away from Jack.

Jack runs after him, and finds Barbossa leaning against large rock, obviously tired.

"So what now, Jack Sparrow? Are we to be two immortals locked in an epic battle until judgement day when trumpets sound?! Hmm?" Barbossa asks, using the time to rest.

"Or you can surrender..." Jack offers before attacking.

"Never!" Barbossa yells and dodges Jack's sword.

Jack is forced to jump onto the rock, and then he jumps away from Barbossa, blocking his strikes until he gets punched in the face, which sends him to the ground.

He scrambles up and flees the older, significantly more crazy man through the chamber. They reach a flat area and Jack turns and suddenly attacks Barbossa.

An explosion behind him distracts Jack for a moment and he scans the area, finding Will unharmed, but Barbossa uses this to catch Jack off guard. Jack has to turn back to the matter of not getting dead, well more dead than he is already, but he hears a pirate telling Will that he'd teach him the true meaning of pain when out of nowhere Elizabeth shouts, "if you like pain, try wearing a corset!"

When did she get here?!

But that doesn't matter because Barbossa is coming at him, with a renewed strength and they fight back and forth for what seems like eternity, but Jack can see will standing at the chest and he knows that if he doesn't take this chance, he may never get one.

He shoves Barbossa away and drops the medallion into his palm, drawing his own blood with his sword, he throws the piece of hold to Will who doesn't have a chance to slice his palm when Barbossa draws his pistol on Elizabeth.

Jack draws his own and pulls the trigger without hesitation. Elizabeth flinches at the sound but it's Barbossa who has been shot.

"Ten years you carried that pistol and now you waste your shot?!" Barbossa asks with a sneer.

"He didn't waste it," Will states, and Barbossa turns quickly to see Will's bloody hand and the medallion in the chest.

"I feel... cold..." he says with a smile before falling onto his back in the water

《Back on the Dauntless 》

The pirates that had taken the most injuries fall, their wounds oozing thick, viscose blood onto the deck, the ones that are still standing drop their weapons and surrender, relieved that their curse had finally been lifted, and for the first time in at least ten years they were vulnerable.

Norrington and his men, shackle them and lock them in the brig before the Commodore goes off in search of his fiancé.

A/N

Hi there, I know this one is shorter than all the rest but there wasn't time for long, drawn out descriptions because it was mostly fight scenes and those gotta be fast paced.

Anyway, back to the book.

Thanks for reading and I love you.
