~*~ ProChapter Author's Notes: The main story in this fic is actually not about the surviving bad guy, but about what happens to poor Jack and how Will and
(eventually, when she shows up) Elizabeth try to help him. The bad guy- thing is more of a sidestory and a reason to put Jack and Will back on the same ship, savvy? The fic starts fast for the reason of getting to the main story, so bear with me. Now... ON WITH THE FIC! ^_^ (My first PotC fic, by
the way)
~Prologue~ (Which is fairly short and not very descriptive, for it is a mere prologue
meant to let you know what happened proceeding current events)
~*~
Will's mind raced as he stood at the docks late that night. He shifted the weight of the bag on his back as the ship he had been waiting for finally began to be visible on the water. He took in a slow, deep breath and reflected on the events leading up to his speedy departure from Port Royal.
Will had woke up early that morning to the sound of the smithy door flinging open and Governor Swann frantically rushing toward him, calling "Mr. Turner!" a few times, apparently not realizing that his haphazard door- swinging had already awoken the blacksmith.
Governor Swann had immediately asked if Will knew where Elizabeth was. Confused, Will asked why, but the frantic father would not explain until he was certain that Will knew nothing of her whereabouts. Elizabeth, as the governor had later explained, had vanished in the night without a trace except for a disturbed lamp in the hall outside her bedroom door. After recovering from this shock and further conversation on the subject of her disappearance, Governor Swann had excused himself and left to go question others, slamming the door behind him.
It was then that Will had noticed an old dagger sticking out of the wood of the door, holding a piece of paper firmly in place. He examined the dagger first, but then turned his intentions to the paper and, yanking it off the door, discovered it was a note. It read (though in poorer spelling and grammar)...
Son of Bootstrap,
I've taken your woman. If you ever want her alive again, bring me Jack Sparrow. I believe you know the place, for it's where the wretch slayed Captain Barbossa and caused ruin to our crew. If you come without Sparrow, both you and the woman will die. If you come with anyone other than Sparrow, the same will happen. Do not breathe a word of this to anyone.
Will had been stunned and a million thoughts entered his mind. He didn't know what to do or what to expect. After some deliberation, he decided that the best thing he could do now would be to find Jack. After speaking with many sailors at the dock, he finally gathered enough information to determine that the 'Black Pearl' would be returning to Tortuga to spend its ill-gotten spoils in only a few days. He arranged for a merchant vessel called 'The Lady Blue' to transport him to Tortuga that very night.
That brought Will to where he was now, standing on the dock at night as the ship finally pulled into the harbor. Shifting his pack once more, he made his way onto the vessel and began the voyage to Tortuga.
Will thought it would have been a longer wait than it was for the 'Black Pearl' to drop its crew, but it was only two days after arriving that he spotted Gibbs and Annamaria heading towards the very pub where Jack had taken Will on their previous adventure. After spotting them, the blacksmith hurried towards them, calling their names.
"William Turner! 'Funny thing t' see you 'ere, boy!" Gibbs said as Will caught them before they entered the bar. "What brings ye to Tortuga, anyhow?"
Taking a moment to catch his breath from his dash up to the two, Will replied "Where's Jack? I need to speak with him right away! It's very important."
Annamaria lifted an eyebrow. "Important?" she snorted. "What is it that's so important?"
"Please! I MUST speak with him. Where is he?" Will pleaded.
Gibbs turned to Annamaria and they exchanged a few whispers. Finally Annamaria nodded at Will. "Fine, boy." she said. "I'll take you to the captain. He's still on the 'Pearl'. Follow me and keep up, I'm not waiting for you." With a little grunt, Annamaria twisted on her foot and headed off.
"Thank you." Will said as he followed behind her. Annamaria simply 'hmph'ed. She obviously didn't trust Will, and REALLY didn't want to have to head all the way back to the ship when she hadn't even made it into the bars yet. Will decided it best not to converse with her on the way to the 'Pearl'.
Jack had hidden his ship just off the outskirts of Tortuga between large canyon walls, only a short row from shore. When the two reached the deck, Will instantly spotted Jack. For a moment he simply stared at him, his beaded hair flowing with the breeze from under his favorite tri- cornered hat. His jacket folded roughly and hanging over the edge of the ship. A bottle of rum in his hand. Startling Will from his thoughts, Annamaria called to him and the pirate spun around, noticing for the first time that someone had boarded his ship.
"What is it, Anna---" Jack began as he neared the two. "Will!" He shouted happily, throwing his arms into the air and causing rum to slosh onto the deck. "Fancy seein' you again, mate! Come to seek out yer ol' cap'n and join a life of piracy, no doubt?" He laughed and patted Will roughly on the back.
Will smiled widely in spite of himself, realizing just how badly he really had missed the insane pirate. "Jack!" he chuckled, giving the man's hand a shake. "It really is good to see you again, though I'm afraid you're a bit off on your theory of me joining a life of piracy."
"'Shame. Just as well... you'll come 'round one 'o these days." Jack smirked. He waved toward the female pirate standing just behind Will. "Leave us, Annamaria." he commanded. The woman nodded and headed off on her own. "Well then, what is it that brings you back aboard the 'Pearl', lad?" Jack said, turning back towards Will.
Will explained the whole situation to Jack. After a bit of conversing and, on Jack's part, alcohol consumption, Jack agreed to let Will aboard his ship and set sail toward the island where the previously undead pirates horded their stash. They would devise a plan on the way there.
"Word 'as it..." Jack said drunkenly with a sly grin during some moment of their conversation. "That in those caves is a one-of-a-kind gem that's supposed to be some kind'a sorcery. 'Bet that bloody thing would fetch a pretty sum. I think I shall like to 'ave that. One more good reason to head out there, eh?"
That gem, as they would find out, would be a lot more than Captain Jack Sparrow had bargained for.
PostChapter Author's Notes: Yes, I know. Nothing interesting happened in the prologue and it was short. It was only there so you'd be able to understand what the hell's going on. Chapter One is a bit more interesting, and while it doesn't delve very deep into the plotline, it's there to spark the beginning of a little Jack/Will romancing. Chapter Two is when stuff will really begin to happen... though don't skip chapters, fool! You will find yourself confused. Blarg. Don't bother reviewing until you've read more than the prologue, savvy? ^.^ Hee hee... I love to say that.
