"You promised me Sparrow's blood!" snarled Salazar upon returning to the ship.

"Aye and he's trapped on that there island with no escape. However, I can bring him to you. Spare the lives of me and me crew and I'll make sure you and Sparrow come face to face." Barbossa told Salazar choosing his words carefully. "On my honor."

"You know nothing of honor," scoffed Salazar. Barbossa held back a smirk he could see the undead Captain knew he had no choice.

"If you fail me. It will be your life that I take." Barbossa inclined his head.

"Understood."

Salazar provided them with a longboat and they rowed to shore. Well, Ragetti and Pintel did the rowing.

"At least we don't have a Kraken on our tail this time," said Ragetti.

"It's Kray-KEN I told ye before," snapped Pintel. Barbossa decided to cut them off before they could get into one of their infernal arguments that while occasionally amusing could also drive one quite mad.

"It's irrelevant given that the creature is dead. Much like you two will be if ye don't shut yer traps and row faster."

"Aye Captain!" the two men exclaimed and increased their pace.

They finally reached the shore and in the near distance could hear voices just around the next bend of trees. The three men followed in that direction. Barbossa held up his hand to halt them when he saw what the commotion was.

Jack Sparrow was getting married. Not by choice it seemed. He stood with a rope around his neck inside the bones of a whale. In front of a him was a large hideous woman with warts. Jack was understandably disagreeing with the pirate that was holding a gun to his head.

Off to the side was a young man of a bout twenty with shoulder-length brown hair and brown eyes. From a distance Hector almost would have mistaken him for William Turner the younger. Next to the boy in an orange dress was a young woman with long dark hair and blue eyes. She too looked oddly familiar.

"Jack, they are going to kill us," said the young man.

"I don't care!" said Jack.

"Just say I do." suggested the young man more urgently this time.

"Last chance Jack," said the pirate holding a gun to Jack's head. Suddenly the young woman spoke up

"Wait. Surely...This is not legal." Hector raised his eyebrows and gestured for Ragetti and Pintel to keep waiting. He wanted to see what this girl was planning.

"This is not legal." said the young man seeming to catch on to whatever the woman was doing.

"Does any man here object to the nuptials?" said the young woman.

"I do." mutter Jack. Hector held back a laugh. The clever little thing had tricked Jack. Not an easy feat mind you.

"Congratulations. You may kiss the bride." said the priest officiating the ceremony. As the hideous woman leaned in Barbossa finally decided to take pity on Jack. He stepped out from where he was hiding, firing a shot straight between Jack and the woman as he limped forward.

"Jack. We meet again." relief flooded over Jack's face so fast it was humorous.

"Hector! This is mi bestest mate in the whole world." Hector raised an eyebrow at that though if push came to shove he supposed Jack was the closest thing to a best friend he had. At this point any true malice between them had long since dissipated.

"I always knew ye'd settle down, eventually."

"Did you bring me a gift?" asked Jack. Hector shot the pirate that had been threatening Jack and everyone assembled bar Jack and the two young people scattered.
