Together (Henry Turner)

*after robbing the bank*

The crew stood behind Jack as he went to open the safe they stole, each exchanging glances with each other except for the red headed women on the so called "ship." Aria, Jack's first mate, crossed her arms over her chest as she stood beside Mr. Gibbs. Biting her lip, she tilt her head to get a better look at the safe Jack was about to open.

"Go on then." She called to Jack. "Open it." He held his breath as he opened the safe to find it empty, except for one gold coin he snatched from himself.

Scrum walked up and looked in the empty safe for himself. Furiously he walked back to the crew asking where the money was. The crew joined in except for Aria who stood looking at Jack with a soft  but disappointed expression.

"Do you think that robbing a bank is easy?" Jack asked as he turned around to face the men and Aria. "You are the ones guilty of putting me in this dreadful pickle in the first place! Now line up, and offer me your tribute." Jack announced standing tall as he looked at his crew.

"You want us to pay you!" Marty yelled at Jack.

"Am I not the captain of this ship?" Jack replied, looking at Aria for back up. The red head pursed her lips together and just looked at her captain.

"You call this a ship?" One of the other pirates replied.

"Where's the treasure?" Another asked.

"All of us are starving!"

"We will no longer follow a captain without a ship."

"That's enough." Aria called out to the men, getting their attention. "He has a ship, you fools." She motioned to Jack.

"I do indeed." Jack smiled at Aria for taking his side as always. Jack moved is coat and pulled out a bottle that held the Black Pearl in it. "The Black Pearl has never left me side."

The crew rolled their eyes and started talking about how Captain Barbossa rules and what he has accomplished while Jack tried naming things they accomplished which wasn't much.

"Face it, Jack, bad luck dogs you day and night." Mr. Gibbs said.

"Now that is a blatant fabrication!" He protested as a couple of bird droppings fell on his shoulder. The crew looked at each other as Jack walked through the group of men.

"You lost your luck." A crew member said getting ready to get off the ship.

"You lost your ship." Said another.

"Now you lost your crew." Marty spat at Jack before walking over to the edge to climb down.

"Jack Sparrow is no longer our captain."

Aria stood up straight and walked over beside Jack. "Now wait a minute, all of you. You can not just abandon your captain like that or your first mate."

"You are no longer our first mate." One of the crew men hissed at her.

Aria walked right up to his face. "Well I am a better pirate than you," she spat. "All of you. I'm staying here, loyal to my captain." None of the pirates seemed to listen to her, causing her to clench her jaw. Mr. Gibbs went to get off the ship as Aria stopped him. "You too, Gibbs?"

Mr. Gibbs walked up to both Jack and Aria with a sincere look in his eyes. "I'm sorry, Jack, Aria, but we've reached the end." With a couple of pats on Jack's shoulder, he turned to look at Aria and patted her shoulder as well before turning to leave.

Jack watched with sad eyes as his friend climbed down to leave. He walked to the edge where they climbed down. "Right then. You're all dismissed! Aye? All of yeah dismissed! Never sail with Captain Jack Sparrow again!" He called out to then as they walked along the beach.
