Still Standing
Elizabeth treaded her way through the drunken pirates. They groaned as she sometimes accidently forgot that they had limbs and stepped on them.
Therefore it was a combination of muttered curse words and the squish of flesh that she first noticed the other ship.
"Will!" She started back to their cabin, even more heedless of the pirates that sprawled across the deck. "Get up you lumbering sods!"
"Whuh - ?"
"Yes! Up, up. There's another ship of the horizon," Elizabeth said.
The pirates realised that it was fruitless to argue with her, again, and slowly got up, cursing women.
It was the start to another day, however early.
"Yay! Look, look! It's a pirate ship," Yachiru murmured from her post on Kenpachi's shoulder. He grunted. Yachiru squinted. "It looks familiar, doesn't it Ken-chan?"
"The Black Pearl," Kenpachi said shortly, glaring at the dark ship ahead of them.
"The Black Pearl? This means that Captain Jack Sparrow might be on it. According to rumours," Yachiru said, "He's alive!"
"Aye, alive." Kenpachi grinned, sharp teeth sending chills down his crew's spines. Yachiru clapped her hands together and grinned happily. "He owes me money. We're going to capture him and make him pay."
There was a cheer of his crew. "This means fighting!" Ikkaku Hot Crotch yelled, flinging a fist into the air.
"Shut up! We have to capture him first and Captain Jack Sparrow is the slippery sort," Kenpachi nodded.
Jack glared at Elizabeth. "I was having a good dream. You weren't in it."
"Good. I wouldn't want to be in any of your dreams. There's a ship out there," she said through gritted teeth and pointed to the quickly approaching ship.
"Ah..." Jack leaned over the railing of the deck.
"It doesn't look like a ship from the Royal Navy, nor a merchant ship," Will said quietly. "A pirate ship then?"
"It's the 11th Ship," Jack said, inspecting his finger nails. "Captained by the pirate, Kenpachi also known as One Eye. He's from somewhere in the East. Known for his terrifying first mate, the Pink Mast Hugger Yachiru."
There was a pause. Will and Elizabeth exchanged glances.
"Bit simple minded, the man has lost 10 ships before this one," Jack continued in his own particular way, scratching his chin. "And we have to lose him. He has some hatred for me."
"I wonder why," Elizabeth muttered.
"Damn the Black Pearl!" Kenpachi yelled. Yachiru nodded, glaring as she shook her fist at the fast fleeing Black Pearl aided by a quick breeze. In a stroke of misfortune, the 11th ship of the pirate captain Kenpachi was sinking.
Again.
The crew sighed, looking disappointed from the lack of fighting. All of them knew how to swim as the life boat wasn't that big. Kenpachi looked irritable as well, so everyone was in the water. Except Yachiru.
The pirate One Eye Kenpachi vowed his vengeance on the elusive Captain Jack Sparrow.
On the Black Pearl, Jack ignored the feeling of dread in the air and swigged at a bottle of rum.
