Andromeda Swann: POTC

Fight and Marooned

Andromeda's POV

"What's happening?!" Elizabeth and I ask shouting.

"The Black Pearl, she's gaining on us" Anamaria states.

"This is the fastest ship in the Caribbean" Elizabeth states.

"You can tell them that after they've caught us" Anamaria tells her.

"We're shallower in the draft right?" I ask and she nods her head. "Then can't we lose them amongest those shoals?" I ask pointing.

"We don't have to out run them long, just long enough" Gibbs states.

"Lighten the ship stem to stern!" Anamaria orders the crew.

"Anything we can afford to lose, see that it is lost!" Gibbs adds. Will, Elizabeth and I start to help the crew lighten the ship. But soon oars appeared out of the Pearl and it approached us faster.

"It was a good plan until now" I say as I join Anamaria, Elizabeth, Gibbs and Will at the helm.

"We have to make a stand, we must fight" Will states.

"With what?" Anamaria and I ask him.

"Anything, everything, anything we have left" he says looking at Gibbs.

"Load the guns and do it quickly or it'll be you we load into the cannons" Gibbs tells the crew sternly. After the guns were loaded he returned to the helm. "She'll hunt us down without ever presenting a target" he states looking at the pearl.

"Lower the anchor on the right hand side" I tell them.

"On the starboard side" Elizabeth states.

"Certainly gives us the element of surprise" Will tells the pirates.

"Your daft ladies, all three of you are" Anamaria states.

"Daft like Jack" Gibbs states and I wrinkle my nose at being compared to the drunk pirate. "Lower the starboard anchor!" he orders.

"Prepare to broad side!" Elizabeth and I shout as the anchor is lowered. Once we were turned around I got two rifles giving one to Elizabeth. "Stay beside me and shoot straight" I tell her strapping a sword to my waist.

Once the pearl was along side us the battle began and Elizabeth stayed beside me with Will. When Anamaria suggested we give Elizabeth to the pirates I glared at her. "She's not what they're after" Will and I snap.

"The medallion" Elizabeth says and Will goes to get it from below deck telling me to stay by Elizabeth. I drew my sword as the pirates boarded the ship fighting back to back with Elizabeth. When a pirate grabbed her arm and Jack stop him from hitting her. I kicked the pirate over board and was pulled down with Elizabeth with Jack.

"Where's the medallion?" he asks Elizabeth.

"Wretch" Elizabeth says going to hit him but he grabs her wrist.

"Ah where is dear William?" he asks looking at her wrapped hand.

"Will" Elizabeth and I say looking at where he'd gone. To see the mast on the door that lead below. We ran over to it and called for Will. When we saw he was safe we tried to move the mast. "We can't move it" we tell him before being grabbed by the enemy pirates. "Will!" Elizabeth and I shout as we're dragged away.

Soon we are being tied to the mast with the rest of our crew and Barbossa orders his crew to blow up the Interceptor. Elizabeth got free and ran towards Barbossa and I free myself just as the Interceptor blew up. When I came out of my shock I see Elizabeth being man handled by Barbossa's crew. "Barbossa!" a man shouts and I turn to see Will.

"Will catch" I say stilling a pistol from the skinny pirate with the wooden eye and tossing it to him. Will catches it and points it at Barbossa while the skinny pirate and the balding one grabbed a hold of me. Barbossa asks Will who he is and Jack starts making up some bullshit of Will being his cousin.

"My name is Will Turner, my father was Bootstrap Bill Turner. His blood runs in my veins" Will announces.

"He's the spitting image of ol' Bootstrap Bill come back to haunt us" the skinny pirate says.

"On my word do as I say, or I'll pull this trigger and be lost to Davy Jones' Locker" Will tells Barbossa.

"Name your terms mister Turner" Barbossa tells him.

"Elizabeth and Andromeda go free" Will states.

"We got that anything else?" Barbossa asks while Jack points to himself.

"Ans the crew, the crew are not to be harmed" Will adds.

"Agreed" Barbossa says and Will gets down from the railing handing over the pistol. But I pit pocket the balding one's pistol hiding it under my baggy shirt. We soon reach an island and the plank is set.

"Barbossa you lying bastard, you swore they'd go free" Will exclaims trying to fight off the pirates holding him. To get to the plank where Elizabeth stood. I was made to stand next to Barbossa who held my arm tightly.

"Don't dare impugn me honor, boy! I agreed she go free, but it was you who failed to specify when or where" Barbossa says chuckling with his crew. "Though it does seem a shame to lose somethin' so fine, don't it, lads?" he asks stroking my hair looking at Elizabeth. The crew agrees with him and he tells Elizabeth "so I'll be havin' that dress back before ye go".

She removes the burgundy dress she was wearing leaving her in he night dress and throws it at Barbossa who catches it letting me go. Elizabeth told him it went with his black heart. Barbossa tosses it to the crew while Elizabeth is made to fall off the plank. "You're turn my darling, who knows maybe I'll come back for you once the curse is lifted" Barbossa says smelling my hair.

"I'd never let you take me, I would rather die" I tell him glaring.

"Perhaps a couples days on the island will change your mind" he states pushing me onto the plank. I waste no time jumping into the water and swimming to shore. Jack Sparrow soon joins Elizabeth and I with his effects.

"That's the second time I've had to watch that man sail away with my ship" he says. Before sitting down on the beach and I follow Elizabeth. We start to walk around the island we'd been marooned on.
