Flashback

Hook, Brooke, Henry and Mr Smee were all tied up on the Jolly Roger and watched as Blackbeard pulled the treasure on board.

"Well, Prince Henry, Princess Bella, you'll both be amazed as I am to find your washed-up pirate actually led us to Davy Jones' Locker," Blackbeard laughed, "Oh," He looked at them, "And to a watery grave for all four of you. Let's have a look at what we've stolen from Davy Jones," Blackbeard said as he opened the chest.

Brooke sighed and watched him, "Oh, good Lord," He chuckled, "There it is," He picked up a ring, "The Star Sapphire of Davy Jones. The ring with which he took his pirate bride and now a worthy addition to the legend of Blackbeard, scourage of the sea, the elegant duke, the crown prince of plunder, the baron of looting..." Blackbeard said.

Hook was trying to cut his rope and Henry and Brooke looked at him, "What are you doing?" Brooke whispered.

"I stubbed my boot on this nail a thousand times," Hook said and cut the rope on the nail, "It's about time it proved useful," He said and he pulled a knife out from his boot and cut Henry loose. Henry took the knife, "You want an adventure, lad? Now's your chance. Go and get yourself that ring," Hook said.

Henry looked at Brooke and she smiled, disappearing in blue smoke and appeared behind a crew member. She tapped his shoulder, he turned and saw her but before he could react she kicked him back into other crew members.

Hook and Henry got up and a fight broke out on the Jolly Roger, Brooke was using her magic and held someone overboard. Blackbeard saw, "Enough!" He yelled and his men stopped. He looked at Brooke, "Bring him back aboard, love."

Brooke did so and looked at him, "Good request, but I believe my nephew wants a word with you," She said.

"Now, give," Henry said and pointed his knife at him.

Blackbeard handed over The Star Sapphire of Davy Jones, "Next time we meet, you won't be getting such a find gift as this, for your bride," Blackbeard said.

"Wait, how do you know about a bride?" Henry asked and the crew laughed, "This was a set-up? Is any of this real?"

"Well, the treasure is. Let's just split it three ways and go home. A deal's a deal, Hook," Blackbeard said.

Brooke went to Henry and he looked at her, "Did you..." He asked her.

"I wouldn't have gone along with it if I'd have known," Brooke told him.

Hook walked to them, Henry looked at Hook, "Meaningless," He handed the ring to him, "Captain Hook I knew never would've made a fool of me," Henry said.

Brooke walked to Hook and punched him across his nose, making him stumble, "Princess got style," Blackbeard commented amusedly.

Hook stood up straight and touched under his nose to feel his blood, "I know, lad. It seems like the other Captian Hook was always helping you, and I thought if I helped you with this, then..." Hook sighed, "Maybe, I... I don't know."

"Hook, I'm sorry, but I came here to find my real story," Henry said, Hook looked up ahead and thunder started to rumble, "A fake adventure doesn't help," Henry said.

"Lad, it looks like this adventure is about to get less fake," Hook said.

Suddenly, a storm blew up out of nowhere, "I've never seen a storm blow up like this," Brooke said.

"No Captain alive could steer us out of this," Blackbeard said.

"I'll take up that challenge and you can stop pretending to be captain. Man your station!" He turned to Brooke and Henry, "Hey, either of you knows how to sail?" He asked.
