Jack walked into The Captains Daughter at just the right moment, in his opinion anyway. The way the alcohol hit his face made him light up with a smile. He strolled towards the bar until he overheard a conversation that interested him.
The conversation was already halfway done, but Jack listened intently anyway. "Aye, but what of this music box? What be the reason that no one can find such a relic?" a wrinkled man with a scraggly beard and moles all over his face asked as he finished the last of his rum, he seemed to think the tale was unbeleivable coming from the elder, who seemed blind, but Jack couldn't exactly tell from his angle behind a nearby post.
"Ah.." the elder whispered before he motioned for the wrinkled man to come closer. This made the infamous pirate have a scowl on his face, but he tried to listen more contently, stroking his braided goatee. "The riddles, they're the map to find your way, but the riddles are said to be hard to figure out." The blind man stated just above a whisper. Jack smiled until he realized that he was horrible at riddles. But the real question was how could he find the riddles?
Jack had grown a bit impatiant with the two men once they moved off the topic of his interest. So, he did what he thought was right. He sat his butt in a chair, right in front of both men who looked at him with scowls and a bit of annoyance. "Listen here, oldtimers," Jack began, earning the attention of both men. "I'd like to know where I could find out all those riddles, savvy?" the two elder men looked at each other in question before the older of the two spoke. "I've only heard of the tale, I know not of where ye will be finding out the riddles. That golden box should never be messed with, it's song controls anyone that the wielded desires, but put into the wrong hands and the sea will be taking us all, she will."
Jack huffed like a child before he left the table angrily. How could this man be so stupid? He could control the man who controls the sea, the man who captained The Flying Dutchman. He crossed his arms as he made his way towards the bar and asked for a bottle of rum. Once he had received the rum, he began to take large gulps of the alcoholic substance before he heard a voice call from behind him. "Pardon me, Jack." Jack smiked a bit before he turned, drink in hand. "Gibbs!" he cried happily, hugging the greying man. "So glad to see you old boy." "Aye, same to Ye Jack. I, ah, couldn't help but over hear your little predicament with The Golden Music Box?" Gibbs questioned just above a whisper as he spoke of the item. "You know of it?" Jack questioned with a lifted brow. "Of course, Jack. I know of where to find those riddles Ye be looking for as well."
"Then you must take me to where I can find them!" Jack pleaded. "Jack, there be a cost in getting those riddles." Gibbs warned. "Can't be anything I cannot provide." Jack stated with an eyeroll. "It'll cost ye the blood of a virgin to be able to speak to him." "easy-" "no, Jack. Not easy. It must be a female from the bloodline of Charles Vane." Jack exhaled in annoyance. Of course there would be a catch like that. And what would this him want with a certain girls blood? Freaky. "But I know of ones whereabouts." Gibbs said with a wide grin. Jack laughed heartily with Gibbs before he realised something. "What is it, Jack?" Gibbs questioned as he noticed the way Jack had stopped laughing with him. "There's only one problem..." Jack stated. "And what is that?" The elder asked with a lifted brow. "I don't exactly have a ship..." the dark eyed man stated with an embarrassed laugh. "Don't worry about it, Jack. How do Ye think I came to be here?" Gibbs said with a small chuckle as he playfully slapped Jack's back. "Then What're we waiting for?" Jack questioned. "Lets be on our way." Gibbs smiled. "The crew has been waiting for you since I left." "and what of Barbossa?" Jack asked. "We left him on another ship to captain. We grew tired of his overbearing orders." "oh..." "He also didn't give us what we wanted either. Our share of the treasures we,helped him,collect and such." "Then let us be off, Mr.Gibbs." "Aye aye, Captain. Lets get ourselves a virgin."
