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

Jar Of Dirt

Tempest slowly opened up her brown orbs to see the blue sky. She heard bustling and voices, as sge turned her head she saw she was on a ship. Back on the Pearl. Her head was pounding.

"Thank goodness you're awake. Jack hit you very hard." Abigail muttered from beside her.

"Where is he, I'm gonna kill him." Tempest slowly sat up with help from Abigail. Her eyes scanned the ship and she saw Isobel standing by the rail staring down into the deep blue water.

"He's at the wheel." Abigail spoke softly and dusted sand off Tempest shoulders. "She tried to go after James too but Will held her back." Abigail glanced at Isobel.

"I'm going to talk to her." Tempest stood up carefully and limped over. Her head was splitting abd her foot was throbbing. Once she made it over she saw the sullen look plastered on Isobels pale face.

"He's gone and the last thing I did was say he wasn't my brother." She mumbled.

"We all say things we regret in anger-" before she could finish the water started to shake abd a ship emerged from the water. "Jones." She mumbled.

Isobel stared at the ship. The cannons were ready to he fired and pirates screamed in glee at the thought of blowing them to the depths. Her eyes met small blue orbs, not the same color as hers but close.

Davy Jones stood on his ship and stared at the crew. Rage filled his veins until his eyes landed on her. He thought he saw a ghost of the woman he once loved. She looked exactly the same but younger. All he could do was stare at her. Sounding out the crews screams he inched closer to the side of The Dutchman. Time seemed to stop until that obnoxious voice filled the air.

"Jones! Missing something aye!? I think I know!" He glared at Jack who stood looking proudly at him. Isobel glanced at Jack signaling him to stop but he didn't. "I got a jar of dirt! I got a jar of dirt! And guess what's inside it!" Jack smirked.

"Enough of this!" Jones yelled. "Fire!!!!" The cannons all fired at once. Isobel and Tempest dove for cover.

"Hard to starboard!" Jack yelled. Gibbs turned the wheel and the Pearl picked up speed to get away as cannons flew towards them. The wind pushed them quickly and they were making a getaway. The Dutchman grew smaller the further away they got.

"Jack you complete and utter-" Isobel screamed but was cut off.

"We got away love, be thankful. I truly am sorry that your family reunion didn't go as planned but if anything I saved you from getting some weird disease from his warm slimy embrace." Jack pushed past her.

"You are disgusting Jack Sparrow!" She hissed and chased after him. Abigail watched them standing beside Will. The ship suddenly shook and will gripped onto Abigails arms.

"We must've hit a reef!" Gibbs exclaimed.

"It's not a reef." Will stated with fear in his eyes. Jack stopped walking causing Isobel to crash into his back.

"Oh no." Jack mumbled and rushed away leaving Isobel standing in confusion.

"What do we do?" Tempest asked Will. He looked over all the crew who looked terrified.

"Load all the gunpowder and rum into a net. We raise it up unto the air and when the Kraken comes we make it wish it had never come to the surface." He stated strongly. The crew shouted in agreement abd rushed to find what Will requested.

"Will...." will tossed Abigail a gun.

"When I give the signal you shoot the net. That'll blow it up." She nodded and watched as her fiance rushed away. He made his way towards Isobel and looked her in the eyes.

"What do you need me to do?" She asked.

"If Jones can control the Kraken maybe you can too. I need you to try and buy us time to set this up." She nodded slowly.

"And if I can't?" He shook his head.

"You can, i know you can." With that he marched off to help the crew.

Tempest limped around the ship and noticed that one of the dingys was gone. She glanced back towards the island and saw Jack rowing towards it.

"You blood Coward." She hissed angrily. The ship started to shake again and large tentacles crashed through the walls. Tempest grabbed onto the rail for support. Men were getting grabbed and pulled down into the water.

A tentacle wrapped around Tempest foot and it pulled her down. She held onto the railing as it tried to pull her away. Her fingers were slipping when she heard gunshots.

Abigail stood beside her as the tentacle headed back into the water with a chunk of flesh missing. Abigail held the gun tightly in her hand. Tempest nodded at her as a thank you before resting her head on the rail.

Isobel stood in the center of the ship and watched the chaos. She took a deep breath before closing her eyes trying to block everything out. Tempest stood up slowly and noticed a tentacle headed right for Isobel.

"Isobel look out!" The tentacle stopped an inch away from Isobels face. Her body was shaking but everything seemed to freeze. The tentacles slowly started to move away from the crew.

"Shes doing it." Will smiled and continued to move gunpowder into the net. Isobel felt splitting pain in her head. The world seemed to spin she slowly opened her eyes and saw the tentacle in front of her face slowly back away.

"This is dark magic...." Gibbs muttered before making a cross over his chest with his hands. Her eyes started to glow blue and her body started shaking even more.

"Will..... I cant- I can't hold it." She mumbled through a shaky voice. The pain was so intense that she couldn't see even with her eyes open. Her body felt weak and she couldn't move.

Will loaded the last barrel of gunpowder into the net and glanced at Isobel just in time to see her small body crash to the ground with a hard thud then the ship shook again and more screams followed.
