With struggled and weighed down steps, Elizabeth makes her way onto the island, Jack Sparrow a foot behind her, managing to unbind his wrists and had thrown the rope onto the sandy beach. The two looked back out to the water, eyeing the Black Pearl as she sailed awau.
" That's the second time I've had to watch that man sail away with my ship. " Jack said as he watched with disdain in his eyes.
The two walked further onto the island, Jack now taking the lead with their clothes and hair now dry. He walked quickly, no delay in his step as Elizabeth struggled to keep up with him and shouted over the wind as she caught up.
" You were marooned on this island before, weren't you? We can escape the same way!"
" To what point and purpose, young missy?" Jack asked as he stopped walking and turned around to talk to her. "The Black Pearl is gone, and unless you have a rudder and a lot of sails hidden in that bodice..." Jack uses his hands to emphasize his words. "Unlikely... Young Mr. Turner and Mr. Sordin will, will be dead long before you can reach them."
He walked off to a nearby tree and knocked on it. Elizabeth appeared on the other side as she continued to plead.
" But you're Captain Jack Sparrow! You vanished from under the eyes of seven agents of the East India Company! " She said as she followed the barefoot Jack, who made large and wide steps in the sand. " You sacked Nassau Port without even firing a shot! Are you the pirate (Y/N) spoke so highly of or not? "
She asked as she stood in front of Jack, who stopped bouncing. He looked at her with a small pained expression in his eyes at the mention of the others name.
" He did?" Jack asked.
" Yes. God, all he did was read all he could about you and wouldn't stop talking about it! About you! He spoke of you as if you two had already met and in away that made it seem like you were a king from some sort of fable!"
Jack stood silently with a black face as she continued.
" How did you escape last time? "
Jack moved her back slightly before speaking.
" Last time......I was here a grand total of three days, all right? Last time..." Elizabeth watched him, confused as he bent down and opened a hatch under the sand."...the rum runners used this island as a cache. They came by and I was able to barter passage off. From the looks of things," He goes down the steps into the storage area and looks around,"they've long been out of business. You probably have your bloody friend Norrington to thank for that."
Jack came back up with dust covered bottles of rum in his hands as Elizabeth looks at him in anger.
"So that's it then? That's the secret, grand adventure of the infamous Jack Sparrow! You spent three days, lying on a beach, drinking rum."
" Welcome to the Caribbean, love." Jack said as he opened his arms in a welcome motion.
His arms dropped and a frown formed on his face as he walked past her, giving her one of the bottles. She looked at it in anger before and idea came to mind. The night sky soon blanketed the horizon as the two made a bonfire on the beach, the two singing and dancing around it, drunk.
