Siren's P.O.V (Point of view)

My eyes open and my head hurt pounding to the unsteady swinging, why was I swinging? I look around seeing I was tied to a pole being carried, I look to see Will who is carried while hung from a bamboo pole, his head hanging back. But he wasn't awake........God no.

Skulls line the path along which we were taken, I knew we learned about these people in school but they never said anything about that.

We are carried over a rope bridge, one cannibal is wearing an English white wig and using a Western style fan, I furrow my brow "Will." I whisper nothing "WILL!?" I shout whisper, he wakes taking in the situations as I did about 2 minutes ago.

We are brought before a man who who sits on a throne, I squint was that made of BONES!!! I gulp.

He pops his eyes open, revealing that his closed eyelids were painted to look like open eyes "Jack? Jack Sparrow! I can honestly say I'm glad to see you!" shouts Will "This is the guy you were yelling about back on the beach?" I ask. 

Jack says nothing, arises from his throne, walks over to Will. Jack pushes one finger into Will's shoulder, as if testing how much meat Will has on him "Jack! It's me! Will Turner!" shouts Will Jack starts speaking with the Cannibals, in a langue that I have never heard. 

He walks to me and pushes my shoulder as well "Don't even think about it!" I say, Jack begins to walk away, as if disinterested, a Compass hangs from his waist "Jack! The Compass! That's all I need, Elizabeth is in danger. We were arrested for trying to help you. She faces the gallows!" shouts Will "You can here...for a compass!!!" I shout, we are carried across a rope bridge, still hanging underneath the bamboo poles. 

The only real words I could hear Jack make out were "Put them in the cages."........What are the cages?

******************************************
(Later)
Two spherical cages, hanging under a bridge, over a riven........So this was the cages.

Six of the Black Pearl crewmen were in the other cage. Will and I were in the same cage with men named Gibbs, Cotton, Marty, and one other "Will I know we just meet but how is this getting me home?" I ask. 

"And who would you be?" ask Gibbs  

"And who would you be?" ask Gibbs

"Siren Nice to meet you to." I say. 

"Why would he do this to us? If Jack is their chief." says Will.

"Aye, the Pelegostos made Jack their chief. But he only remains chief as long as he "acts" like a chief." says Gibbs. 

"Does this happen often?" I ask, they all nod.  "So he had no choice. He's a captive then as much as the rest of us." says Will "Worse... as it turns out. See, the Pelegostos believe that Jack is a "god" in human form, and they intend to do him the honor of releasing him from his fleshy prison." says Gibbs, Cotton bites Gibbs' fingers to illustrate "?Argh! They'll roast him and eat him." says Gibbs.
