Souls

"Trim the sail!" Barbossa yelled. "Trim the sail," Jack also yelled. "Slack windward brace and sheet." Barbossa said. "Slack windward brace and sheet." Jack told the crew. "Haul the pennant line." "Haul the pennant line."He repeated Jack again. "What are you doing?" Barbossa asked him annoyed. "What are you doing?" Jack asked him. "No, what are you doing?" Barbossa again. "No, what are you doing?" Jack again. "No! What are you doing?!" "What are you doing...Captain gives orders on the ship." Jack then said. "The captain of the ship is giving orders." Barbossa fired back. "My ship makes me captain." Jack said with a smirk. "They are my charts." Barbossa said as he held the chards in his hands. "That makes you 'Chartman.'" Jack replied. "Shut it! The both of you! That's an order! Understand!?" Pintel suddenly yelled, and we all looked at him confused as both captains looked at him furious. "Sorry, I just thought with the captain issue in doubt, I'd throw in my name for consideration. Sorry." He said, and the other two men started pushing their way up to the steering wheel. "I'd vote for you." Ragetti said, and I gave him a comforting smile as I walked over to the two fighting males. They both held a spyglass and looked over the ocean; when it came to setting the direction, they started arguing again about who got to steer the ship.

They both grabbed onto the steering wheel, and I had enough. I walked over to them and pushed them apart, one to the left and one to the right.

"Really? Are we doing this again?" I snapped. "You're both acting like children. Jack, if you don't stop this nonsense, I swear I'll tie you to the mast myself. And Barbossa, just because you've got a map doesn't mean you own the ocean."

They both stared at me, and I could see Jack trying not to smirk.

"Enough fighting. If you two can't decide who's steering the ship, then I will!" I added, stepping right between them and grabbing the wheel myself.

Annoyed Barbossa rolled his eyes and walked away, while Jack approached me and hugged me. I also put my arms around him as I signalled for Cotton to steer the ship. I took Jack a little to the side, and we sat down on the rail. "Tell me, Jack... What happened that day?" I asked him. I didn't want to think about it, but we had to talk about it eventually. Jack had his arms around me and began talking. "You know, I wanted to spend my last few moments on the ship when your sister walked up to me, hugged me, and secretly put chains on my hand and on the ship." He said, and what he told me broke me. "My own sister..." I mumbled, and Jack cupped my face in his hands. "It's fine, love. I'm here now, and you're with me." He said, and I nodded. "Yeah, but still I won't be able to forgive her anytime soon." I told him, and he slowly nodded. "Though, I'm glad you're back. I missed you." I mumbled. "Oh, of course I missed you too, love." He said and held my face in his hands as he slowly kissed me.

Just a few hours later it was already nighttime when I stood with Tia Dalma, and we watched the ocean. In there, I don't know how to describe it, maybe soul or something like this. We heard noise behind us, and there stood Ragetti and Pintel, both with cannonballs. Tia and I looked at them with sharp looks, and they both let the cannon fall to the ground. "Be disrespectful, it would." Pintel told Ragetti. "They should be in the care of Davy Jones. That was the duty he was charged with...by the goddess. Calypso. To ferry those who die at sea to the otehr side. And every ten years he could come ashore. to be with she who loves him...truly. But the man has become a monster." Calipso told us the story. "So he wasn't always tentacly?" Ragetti asked. "No." She said with a smile. "Him was a man...once." She said and touched a heart necklace she had on. "Now there is boats coming." Ragetti said as he looked onto the ocean.

The others now also came on deck, and Gibbs already had a weapon ready to shoot. "They're not a threat to us. Am I right?" Will asked Tia Dalama. "We are nothing but ghosts to them." Tia Dalma answered, and Jack now also stood next to me. "It's best just to let them be." Barboss said. When Elizabeth suddenly started speaking. "It's my father. We've made it back. Father! Father! Here, look here!" She yielded, and I looked to a small bot to indeed see our father in there. "Elizabeth. We're not back." Jack told her, and I finally knew what he was talking about. "No." I mumbled. "Father!" Elizabeth yelled again, and he finally looked at us. "Elizabeth. Y/n...Are you dead?" He asked us. "No." We answered. "I think I am." He said with a soft smile. "No! Father!" I now also yelled. "No, you can't be!" Elizabeth also yelled. "There was this chest, you see. It's odd. At the time it seemed so important." He told us. "Come aboard!" Elizabeth yelled. "And a heart. I learnt that if you stab the heart, yours must take its place. And you will sail the seas for eternity.The Dutchman must have a captain. Silly thing to die for." "Someone cast a line! Come back with us!" Elizabeth yelled, and I looked at my father with a broken expression. My knees grew weak, and I felt Jack wrapping his arms around me as he held me steady. She threw the line over to him. "Take the line!" She yelled at him.- "I'm so proud of you, Y/n, Elizabeth." He said, "Father, take the line, take the line!" She yelled, and it looked like she was about to leave the ship. "She must not leave the ship!" Tia Dalma yelled, and everyone except for Jack, who held me in his arms, ran over to her. "I'll give your love to your mother," he said, and with that, he was gone. I began to cry silently, and Will came back with Elizabeth in his arms. Jack then looked at Tia Dalma. "Is there a way?" He asked her. "Him at peace." Tia Dalma said sadly.
