I do not own the Pirates of the Caribbean movie series, nor any of the characters from it. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Back to the Real World.
A/N - Yes it has been forever since i have updated, and I must apologize! Working 2 jobs, plus school just around the corner has made me a very busy lil bee with hardly any free time. But as I was laying in bed last night, this scene just popped out at me, so I had to put it on here. Enjoy!!
*******************************************************
The day was still once again; The Pearl was just listlessly sailing, with hardly any wind in her sails once again. Jack had spent the better part of the day going over those blasted charts that Barbossa had brought along, and he couldn't make heads or tails of it. His brow scrunched in thought, Jack tried moving a few pieces of the map. Suddenly words appeared..."Up...is down?" he muttered to himself. "Well that isn't bloody helpful!" he growled as he got to his feet to relieve Cotton from the wheel. "Up is down...up is down," he repeated to himself, lost in thought.
"We need to be gettin back to de real world," Tia Dalma said from behind him, causing Jack to jump.
"You keep telling me that,Tia love, but so far, you haven't offered any suggestions on how we could be getting back!" Jack snarked at her. Today, many of the tempers of the crew members were showing. Jack had to separate Ragetti and Pintel earlier, and had given them the duty of emptying the chamber pots as punishment. The sun was just getting ready to set, when a flash of understanding hit Jack, so hard between his eyes, he almost fell from the wheel. "Up...is down!! Not sunrise...SUNSET!!" he crowed, leaving the wheel. He ran to the side of the Pearl. "What's that!!" He screeched, pointing to the side, causing people to pause and look over to where he pointed. He ran to the other side and did the same thing. Pretty soon, everyone got the idea, and was running back and forth, to cause the Pearl to flip over. They lost a few men, who didn't hold on to the railing tight enough, as the Pearl flipped over with a gut-wrenching heave. Jack hung on tightly, with Elizabeth, Tia Dalma, Barbossa, and Will, as well as the other crew, when Will suddenly lost his grip. Elizabeth tried to scream, but being under water, all that caused was sea water to flood into her lungs. She started to let go, as the sea bubbled around them and then BOOM, the Pearl was flipped back right side up, back into the real world, with the sun rising. Elizabeth collapsed onto the deck, and wretched, expelling salt water from her lungs, and gasping for air. She blushed red at her own folly and rushed to her feet to flee the deck.
"What was that all about?" Jack mused, shaking water from his dread locks.
"She be used to being the strong one. She showed weakness, and she be ashamed of it," Tia remarked, clutching her necklaces to her close.
Will watched Elizabeth go, then sighed and went after her. They hadn't spoken all day, and now he knew she needed comfort. Jack watched Will go after his Lizzie..."where did that come from?" he thought to himself. "My Lizzie?...nah, I must be tired or something...." he thought silently as he grabbed the wheel of his beloved Pearl and felt the sails fill with wind. It was good to be back to Living World....and he didn't plan on leaving it anytime soon.
