Changing Fate:

Chapter 1:

Captain Jack is Back

"Stupid boat" I muttered as I pulled one the many ropes that controlled the sails. I opened my compass while taking a sip of my rum. My compass (points to the thing that you want most in this world) pointed north west. I sighed as I continued my adventure to Aqua De Vida alone. I hate to admit it, but I actually miss my crew.

I have been on this journey for quite a few days now, and I had almost completely run out of water, and even worse; rum. I took a look at my surroundings, and sighed at the vision in front of me. An enormous tree had fallen onto the water, and blocked the way to Aqua De Vida. I spoke out loud "Bugger", and then looked to my left to see that there was a tunnel holding the tree up.

I shrugged and decided that the best thing to do was to go through the tunnel and onto the other side. I set sail through the tunnel, and saw that something unusual was happening to the boat. It started going faster, and faster.

For a few minutes I hung onto the sails so tightly as if I was going down a waterfall. But abruptly I stopped. There was complete darkness all around me, so I asked "Anyone there?"

I was not expecting an answer but I got one. As quick as a flash of lighting, a fire started to burn in front of me, and a woman appeared along with it. By the way she looked at me, I could tell that she was angry. She shouted, "Who dares to enter my tunnel?" I gulped, and then said "Ugh…Jack Sparrow. Captain Jack Sparrow." She then stood up, and I began to see her clearer. She looked about my father's age, if not a few years less. She was a brunette that wore a long silk dress that stuck to her as if it were her skin.

She walked over to me through the water of the tunnel and she then said, "Jack, were you going anywhere?" I nodded, and she continued speaking. "Well not anymore. Unless you would like to exchange." My eyes widened and I asked "What kind of exchange?"

She smiled and said "I see that you hold a map in your hand.." She snatched it away from me then continued "Ahhhh… Yes. This is the one I have been looking for." I then said, "Give the map back." Then I took out my gun and pointed it at her head. She began to laugh and she then said "Jack, go ahead and shoot! You can't kill me! I am the goddess of time, I can't die".

I lowered my gun and then asked "Aye. Well under the circumstances I believe that I truly need the satisfaction of more rum". I then took a sip of rum, and she chuckled. She then said "Now, Jack. If you ever want to leave my tunnel, how about we have an exchange. I will send you back in time to a place where you were truly happy, and I get your map."

I looked at her suspiciously and said, "How far back are we talking?" She thought about it for a moment and said "Alright, no later than two years. Fair deal?" I sighed and said "And if choose to stay"?

She chuckled and said, "Well, I have been wanting a servant, you could start by massaging my feet". I glanced down at her feet and stuck out my tongue in disgust. I then said "Alright, goddess of time, send me back to a time of happiness".

She shrugged and pointed at me while whispering a curse of some sort. As she did, I felt my feet sink into the floor as if my body was being pulled in by quick sand. I closed my eyes in terror thinking of the last time I felt like this. I remember feeling this way when the Kraken killed me, and when I was transported to World's End.

A few moments later I opened my eyes to hear Marty say, "Did we kill it?" I looked around; I was on the black pearl. It was severely damaged! I then looked down to see Gibbs speak "No. We just made it angry. We're not out of this yet. Captain! Orders!"

I was surprised then tried to remember what I had said, then I walked down the stairs, and said "Abandon ship, and into the long boat" I quickly glanced at Elizabeth while slightly raising my voice "All of us". She gave me a confused look while Gibbs said, "Jack the pearl".

I sighed and then continued, "She's only a ship mate". I then shouted out loud "I know it's a lot of open water, Ragetti, and yes, Will we can get away while it takes the ship down." The crew looked at me suspiciously as Gibbs then said, "Abandon ship. Abandon ship or abandon hope."

I walked forward slightly and examined my ship; I had not seen her in a while. Elizabeth approached me, and I remembered what had happened next. I turned around thinking that before I was killed I was happy because Elizabeth had kissed me. I shook that thought away as she began to speak. But then I realized that the only reason I was sent here,was because i was thinking of it last, right?

"Thank you, Jack" she then said to me. I smiled and said "We're not free yet, luv. Trust me on that one". She took a few steps towards me and then said, "You came back. I always knew you were a good man". She then kissed me and as she kissed me, she pushed me towards the mast I remember she chained me too. But this time I pushed her the other way and broke the kiss a few seconds later. She looked at me surprised and then I said "Not this time, luv. Not this time".

I then walked away from her and climbed onto the long boat. A few moments later she climbed down the ropes and sat next to me. She turned to look at me as William and Gibbs started to row away from the Black Pearl. I took off my hat and held it up high in the air and said "Farewell, Black Pearl, and goodbye to freedom".

Elizabeth then shoot me a look filled with both confusion and remembrance. I then looked at the Pearl as the Kraken began to destroy it. I sighed and then Gibbs looked at me asking while asking, "Captain, once we are on the island. What will we do?" Will answered for me and said, "I suggest we make fire signals, so that someone can come and rescue us."

I nodded and said "Good suggestion, mate". He bit his lip while saying "I'm not your mate!" My eyes widened in confusion and he continued "Remember that, Jack." I nodded then asked, "Now what's your bloody problem?" He shook his head and then looked at Elizabeth and spoke "I'm just disappointed. That's all."

I looked at Elizabeth and she then said "Disappointed at who Will?" Gibbs then said "Sorry to interrupt this emotion fest, but we have arrived on land Captain". We all got out of the longboat and then I watched Elizabeth touch Will on the shoulder while asking, "What's the matter Will?" He then sighed and shouted while pushing her away "Don't even ask that question Elizabeth!"

Elizabeth flew to the ground, and I ran over to her, offering to help her up. I then asked her "Are you alright, luv?" She nodded then replied, "Yes, thank you Jack". Will then bit his lip disappointed and turned away while saying "I'm sorry Elizabeth." He then walked away sadly.

I looked at Elizabeth and she then said "Jack, about before." I raised my hand as in a signal for her to stop explaining. I then said, "It's alright, luv. I knew one day you wouldn't be able to resist".

I then walked away from her while thinking 'Captain Jack is back'.
