Jack picked up a buckle of water and threw it on a man who was sleeping with some pigs.
“Curse you for breathing, you slack-jawed idiot! Mother’s love! Jack! You should know better than to wake a man when he’s sleeping. ‘S bad luck.” Shouted Gibbs.
“Ah, fortunately I know how to counter it. The man who did the waking buys, the man who was sleeping, a drink. The man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking.” Jack replied as Gibbs took a minute to ponder on what Jack had just said.
“Aye, that'll about do it” he said as Will threw another bucket of water on him “Blast! I’m already awake!”
“That was for the smell.” Will implied. Gibbs just shrugged his shoulders in agreement. Pearl who was leaning against the door frame let out a slight laugh.
“I thought I told ye to wait aboard the ship” Jack said to her. Pearl just rolled her eyes at him and shrugged her shoulders.
“I don’t have to listen to you.” Anger was still strong in her tone.
“Keep a sharp eye.” Jack said passing by Will as he walked from the tavern bar to the table where Gibbs was sitting. Pearl rolled her eyes at him once again.
“Don’t you think you should give him a chance? Pearl he is your father.”
“He gave me up Will! He didn’t want me.”
“You heard what he said. He wasn’t sure he could keep you safe.”
“That doesn’t make it hurt any less!”
“I know. My father hasn’t been around either.” Will said as he placed a hand comfortingly on her shoulder. “But I think you owe it to yourself to give him a chance. Pirate or not.” Pearl sighed she hated when Will was right.
“Now, what’s the nature of this venture of your on?” Gibbs asked.
“I’m going after the Black Pearl. I know where it’s going to be, and I’m going to take it.” Jack replied causing Gibbs to almost choke on his drink.
“Jack, it’s a fool’s errand. Why, you know better than me the tales of the Black Pearl.”
“That’s why I know what Barbossa is up to. All I need is a crew.”
“From what I hear tell of Captain Barbossa, he’s not a man to suffer fools, nor strike a bargain with one.”
“Well, then I’d say it’s a very good thing I’m not a fool then, eh?”
“Prove me wrong. What makes ye think Barbossa will give up his ship to you?”
“Let’s just say it’s a matter of leverage, eh?” Jack stated as he nodded to Will and Pearl.
“The girl?”
Jack shook his head and nodded more towards Will.
“The boy?”
“That is the child of Bootstrap Bill Turner. His only child, savvy?”
“Is he, now?” Leverage,” says you. “I think I feel a change in the wind,” says I. I’ll find us a crew. There’s bound to be some sailors on this rock crazy as you.”
“One can only hope.” Jack said raising his drink “Take what you can…”
“Give nothing back.” Gibbs replied before they drank down their drinks.
“Feast your eyes, Captain. All of them, faithful hands before the mast, every man worth his salt. And crazy to boot” Gibbs said to Jack as he showed off the rounded up ‘crew’
“So this is your able-bodied crew?” Will asked Jack.
“You, sailor!” Jack shouted to one.
“Cotton, sir.” Gibbs stated.
“Mr. Cotton … do you have the courage and fortitude to follow orders and stay true in the face of danger and almost certain death? Mr. Cotton! Answer, man!” Jack asked the man called Cotton.
“He's a mute, sir. Poor devil had his tongue cut out, so he trained the parrot to talk for him. No one’s yet figured how.”
“Mr. Cotton’s... parrot. Same question.”
“Wind in the sails! Wind in the sails!” replied the parrot.
“Mostly, we figure, that means “yes.'” Said Gibbs.
“O’course it does.” Jack said before turning to Will. “Satisfied?”
“Well, you’ve proved they’re mad.”
“And what’s the benefit for us?” Came a women’s voice
“Anamaria.” Jack said after removing the sailor’s hat only to receive a slap.
“I suppose you didn’t deserve that one either.” Pearl asked.
“No, that one I deserved.”
“You stole my boat!” said Anamaria angrily.
“Actually -“Jack stated to say but was slapped “borrowed. Borrowed without permission. But with every intention of bringing it back to you.” He finished. Pearl couldn’t help but laugh a little.
“But you didn’t!” Anamaria shouted at him.
“You’ll get another one.” Jack pleaded.
“I will.” Anamaria said pointing a finger at him.
“A better one.” Will added.
“A better one!” Jack agreed.
“That one” Pearl put in. pointing to The Interceptor.
“What one? That one?!” Jack gave her an angry glare witch was met with by smirk. Jack sighed “Aye, that one. What say you?”
“Aye!” Agreed the crew.
“Anchors aweigh.” Squawked Cotton’s Parrot.
“ No, no, no, no, no, it’s frightful bad luck to bring woman aboard, sir.”
“It’d be far worse not to have them.” Jack said.
“How can we sail to an island that nobody can find with a compass that doesn’t work?” Will yelled to Gibbs over the storm that had broken upon them well out at sea.
“Aye, the compass doesn’t point north but we’re not trying to find north, are we?” Gibbs answered Will then turned to Jack and shouted. “We should drop canvas, sir.”
“She can hold a bit longer.” Jack replied.
“What’s in your head that’s put you in such a fine mood, Captain?”
“We’re catching up.”
“Dead men tell no tales.” Sang Cotton’s Parrot as the ship sailed into a lagoon. The whole crew overlooks wrecks of ships strewn everywhere in the water.
“Puts a chill in the bones how many honest sailors have been claimed by this passage.” Gibbs stated.
“How is it that Jack came by that compass?” Will asked as Jack closed the compass uncomfortable with Cotton’s long stares.
“ Not a lot’s known about Jack Sparrow before he showed up in Tortuga with a mind to go after the treasure of the Isla de Muerta . That was before I met him, back when he was Captain of the Black Pearl.”
“What?” Asked Pearl.
“He failed to mention that.” To mention that” Will added a bit angrily.
“ Well, he plays things closer to the vest now. And a hard-learned lesson it was. See three days out on the venture the first mate comes to him and says everything’s an equal share. That should mean the location of the treasure, too, so Jack gives up the bearings. That night there was a mutiny. They marooned Jack on an island and left him to die but not before he’d gone mad with the heat.”
Pearl looked towards Jack now deep in thought.
“Ah. So that's the reason for all the…” Will said mocking Jack’s gestures.
“Reason's got nothing to do with it. Now Will , when a man is marooned he is a given a pistol with a single shot - one shot. Well it won't do much good hunting or to be rescued. But after three weeks of a starvin’ belly and thirst, that pistol will start to look real friendly. But Jack - he escaped the island, and he still has that one shot. Oh, but he won't use it, though, save for one man. His mutinous first mate.”
“Barbossa.” Will said
“Aye.”
“How did Jack get off the island?” Pearl asked still watching Jack.
“Well, I’ll tell ye. He waded out into the shallows and there he waited three days and three nights till all manner of sea creature ‘came and acclimated to his presence. And on the fourth morning, he roped himself a couple of sea turtles, lashed ‘em together and made a raft.”
“He roped a couple of sea turtles?” Will questioned.
“Aye, sea turtles.” Said Gibbs.
“What did he use for rope?” Pearl asked doubtfully.
“Human hair…from my back.” Jack said as he came up behind him “Let go of the anchor!” He shouted orders to the crew.
“Let go of the anchor, sir!” The crew shouted in return.
“Young Mr. Turner and I are to go ashore.”
“What about me?” Pearl asked.
“You’re staying here”
“If Will is going I want to go!”
“No! That’s an order”
Pearl crossed her arms and glared at him.
“Captain! What if the worst should happen?” Gibbs asked.
“Keep to the code”. Jack answered.
“Aye, the code.” Gibbs said.
