Blue: She is definitely being bamboozled by it.....

Elizabeth: It doesn't work! It doesn't show you what you want most!

Blue: Maybe you're not thinking outside the box?

Elizabeth: What do you mean?

Jack looks at the compass without touching it, then realises what was wrong.

Jack: It does work, you're sitting on it!

Elizabeth: Beg your pardon?

Jack: Move

Jack was about to shove Elizabeth away, but Blue does the better thing and just picks her up, moving her away. Elizabeth's face goes red and she had an embarrassed look.

Blue: I believe you are sitting on the spot

Blue sets Elizabeth back on her feet, and she felt.....disappointed that she was standing again.

Jack marks the spot where Elizabeth was with his foot, making an X sign. He looks at Norrington, who gets the hint and starts digging.

But....on the outer reef of Isla Cruces...was the Flying Dutchman approaching, with Davy Jones peering through the spy glass from his deck.

Through the glass, Pintel and Ragetti were seen by the longboat. For unknown reasons, Ragetti tries to balance an oar on his nose.

Davy Jones: They're here, and I cannot step foot on land again for near of a decade.

Maccus: Ye'll trust us to act in yer stead

Davy Jones: I trust you to know what awaits should you fail. Down, then

Crewmembers repeat the call, "Down, Down!". Over Jones' shoulder, looking ahead as the bow submerges. The water slams past, with bubbles and foam.

The dutchman was underwater, and a boiling sea was the only thing left of the Dutchman. Both Pintel and Ragetti watched with astonished faces, they look at each other in fear and disbelief.

They look over at the sea again, before turning and running away so that they can warn the others. With the others, they had managed to find what they are looking for as the shovel in Norrington's hand comes into contact with something that was not sand.

Himself and Jack lift out this object, revealing to be a chest. Blue was going to open the lock using his pick lock skills, but Jack uses the shovel to break it instead.

Blue: I never get to use these skills much, do I?

Elizabeth: Perhaps, next time

Blue: Hopefully -_-

Jack opens the chest, and inside were a few items.

A long white dress, a conch shell, some dried flowers, a strand of white pearls, lace, love letters.....they were all mementos of love gone bad.

Blue: Is love overrated?

Elizabeth: Love is amazing

Jack: I agree!

Jack digs through the items, pushing them aside before lifting out the Dead Man's Chest. It was less than two feet long, and a little more than a foot high. It was bound solidly in Iron, and looked unbreakable.

The lock on the front is disproportionately large, decorated with a inlaid pearl, in the design of a heart. The four listen in silence, until a single and deep beat was heard.

Blue: Ooooo, very scary

Elizabeth: It's real

Blue: The One Pieeeeeeeece! The One Piece is Reeeeeeeeaaaaal!
