The Heart Of The Sea: A Pirates of the Caribbean Story

Broken

Isobel stood and fiddled with her fingers as the ship neared the cave. Her heart hammered in her chest. Tempest came and stood next to her.

"We'll save him." Tempest mumbled and looked at her. She nodded.

"I know. I just feel like something else is happening. Like it's just the beginning." Isobel sighed. Tempest opened her mouth to speak but 2 guards came over to them.

"Excuse me ladies, Commodore Norrington has requested that you all be taken to hus cabin for safety reasons. The Swann girls are already there waiting for you." Isobel looked at them and shook her head.

"No, I'm going to fight. You can't lock me up." She stood firmly. Tempest nodded strongly.

"Please ladies, don't make this difficult." A guard grabbed Isobels arm but she moved away. The other guard went for Tempest but she brought her foot up into his chest kicking him away from her. Isobel tried to help but was held back by a guard.

"Try and touch me again and I'll kill you." Tempest hissed at the man on the ground. He stood up and lunged at her. She ducked and slammed his head into the railing. Isobel gasped when the other guard pointed his pistol at Tempest.

"Filthy pirate wench." He spat bitterly Isobel stomped on his foot and tried to grab the pistol. Tempest took the chance and dove into the water. She felt frozen as the cold wetness enveloped her. She sighed and started swimming towards the cave.

She swam for what felt like hours until she reached the rocky shores. She carefully pulled herself up out of the water onto a slippery rock. She saw Norrington and his men rowing towards the cave in the distance and shook her head.

"Pathetic." She grumbled and made her way quietly into the cave. Her heart pounded as she made her way into the golden cave. She heard voices so she ducked behind a large stone by the entrance.

"What are ye suggesting Jack?" Barbosas scratchy voice asked. She carefully peaked over and saw Jack standing there. He must've left before Norrington.

"Im suggesting a wonderful suggestion Hector!" Jack chuckled. "Norrington and his ship are waiting outside. You kill Turner and break your curse you'd just be killing yourself mate." Barbosa scoffed.

"What are ye saying we do about this then? Keep Turner alive so you can miraculously save him?" Barbosa rolled his eyes and sat down on a mound of gold.

"No, not at all. You kill Norrington and his men, take the ship, then kill Turner breaking your curse. Then you'll have 2 ships." Jack paced and the gold clicked under his boots.

"2 ships ey?" Barbosa chuckled darkly. "I like the sound of that."

"Give me the Pearl and I'll sail under your colors Captain Barbosa. You get the Dauntless the most powerful navy ship." Jack reasoned. Tempest watched in shock.

"Deal." Barbosa shook his hand.

"What have you done Jack...." she mumbled and made a sprint out of the cave. As she exited the cave into the moonlight she saw Norrington getting closer. She dove back into the water and started to swim toward him.

"Good to see you again Ms. Teague." Norrington mocked. She rolled her eyes and pulled herself onto the small boat. She gasped for breath and looked Norrington dead in the eyes.

"You need to go back to the ship." She breathed out. "Jack betrayed us it's a setup. The pirates are headed towards the Dauntless to kill everyone aboard." Norrington stared at her in shock.

"Turn the boats around. Now!" He yelled and looked back at the Dauntless. Tempest looked at him in awe.

"You trust me?" She asked in confusion.
