The seven seas 2 (A Will Turner fanfic)

Salazar

"I know this is madness but I can't say no. I've to leave with the lady, to meet Salazar" jack murmured as he opened a bottle of rum.

"But Salazar don't like you. He was trapped in Bermuda from the first place because of you" barbossa said.

"I know but how can I tell the lady that. She has no memory of anything. I don't want her to think we are the enemy" jack took a sip of his rum.

"Stop! With your rum. Your brain will rot" Will complained.

"It's already rotten, after hearing about Salazar" jack took another sip.

"No one knew Salazar was the son of Poseidon. Everyone thought he was part of the Spanish navy, but now we know exactly why Salazar didn't die when he was trapped in Bermuda. It was because he is a Demi god as well" barbossa said.

"And he's the half brother of the lady. Can you see how dangerous it is. The lady will support him. He's family" jack shook his head in despair.

"If he's wrong she wouldn't. She always does the right thing" Will mumbled.

"She did the right things Will but now she has no memory. One can see how different she is now. So I'm in deep doubt" barbossa exhaled.

"We should all put our trust in her, like we always do" Will said.

"I know we should but this is too hard for us all" barbossa said.

"My lady, how I wish I could join you in meeting Salazar" barbossa said.

"I know you do but this is not the time for you to be introduced. You have to wait" Athena smiled.

"My lady before you leave, I wanted to give you this. A gift from me to you" Will smiled as he handed a pouch to Athena.

"Thank you Will. I'm curious of what's inside" she smiled.

"I'm ready to go on an adventure" jack yelled as he came forward drunk in rum.

"The only adventure, you will be having is a hangover" Will looked at him.

Athena chuckled. "We have to go now jack, come on" she called as jack followed.

"Be safe" Will yelled as they boarded the ship. Jack waved goodbye to Will and barbossa who was on the dock and soon the Gem disappeared from sight.

***

As the Gem sailed towards the dark sea where the death has taken over. One can notice that there was no sign of ships anymore, nor was there sea gulls on the skies or fishes under the sea. It was literally a Dead Sea. Then the sea made a roaring sound and Salazar's ship came out from the ocean just like the Dutchmen and the Gem does. Jack jaws dropped as the ship halted near the Gem and the crew of Salazar stood there motionless watching them. They were neither dead nor alive just like the crew of Barbossa before the curse was uplifted but Salazar's crew looked more dangerous and blood thirsty.

Salazar was right there standing and smirking as he saw jack. Jack gulped. He was so thankful he was on the Gem and no one could step on the Gem without Athena's permission. He was praying Athena won't invite Salazar on the Gem. At that very moment Athena stepped out of her room and walked up on the deck and as she saw Salazar she smiled. "My lady" Salazar smiled brightly as he bowed his head down in respect and so did all his crew members. Even his smile looked so evil, jack was trembling.

"Won't you welcome me on your ship?" Salazar asked as he looked at Athena.

Athena chuckled and said "Welcome Salazar to my Gem" as she said those words Salazar was able to step his feet on the Gem. Jack was horrified at the sight he just stood there at the back of Athena and avoided eye contact with Salazar.

"I've longed to see you. Ever since the day I came to know about you" Salazar said as he walked towards Athena. Black blood was dripping from his lips like saliva and jack was disgusted by that. He tried not to look at Salazar anymore because he didn't want to be more horrified. Once there was Davy Jones and now Salazar he thought.

Athena smiled and said nothing she was just looking at Salazar. She could clearly see that death had taken over him. "Are you afraid of me, my lady?" He questioned as he got no response from Athena.

"No, Salazar I'm not. It's just that, you look better as captain Salazar not death" she said as she touched his face. In an instant he turned to his human form again. He was happy beyond words, as he looked down and saw his human hands again.

"I'm me once more" he said in joy as he touched his arms and shoulders but as soon as he backed a little from Athena, he turned to his death self. He was horrified and angered. "Why" He said in anguish looking at himself once more. Then he went and grabbed Athena's hand "heal me my lady" he pleaded as he fell on her feet.

"Salazar" she called as she looked down on him. He was sobbing and in so much pain. He wanted to be his self once more and not death. She could feel his pain, so she gently sat down on the floor next to him and said "I'll help you"

Salazar was so happy when he heard that, he looked at her and said "thank you my lady. Thank you"

"After all.....you are my half brother" she smiled as she left for her room.

Right after she left jack tried to follow her but Salazar was on his way. "Sparrow" he spat as he looked at jack.

"Hi" jack gulped.

"I never forgot what you did to me. Never!" He warned as he left for his ship.
