I've been highly anticiapting this chapter! :D
As always, superbly written, and fantastic use of emotive language. A real fictional triumph... oh, I'm going all book criticy here!
I must say, I do like that you've the mark Jack left on Beckett a sprarrow, as it's a very unique touch. I would have thought "eunuch" (hehe), but you've thought up a much much better explanation.

> Jack had considered the one scar that defined his existence to be the one that he had earnestly never intended to earn. <

Aye. Under all else, Jack's a good man.

Great work, again!

Good work with this chapter, Caleigho. And forgive me if I'm not on much for a couple of days. My laptop went crazy.

Oww! That is one painful description if the branding.

And an interesting notion about what mark Jack left n Beckett.

OMG!! I just adore this story! It's my ultimate favourite! :D
Loved the flashback, though it was very grim indeed. I winced when the brand met skin. Poor Jackie :(
You are incredibly accomplished at making me hate Beckett more than I used to! LOL! The way you describe him is amazingly accurate.
Can't wait for the next chapter! :D

OMG! :D
I laughed so much when Jack appeared in Beckett's room! haha! I aslo laughed when Jack called Elizabeth a "rum-burning wench"!
Once again, flawless piece of art here, with all the emotions raw and the chracters beyond perfect. ^^

Jack is great, love the story, keep writing; a true pirate.

Ha- I love seeing Jack get the better of his far-wickeder foes! I just hope he can be of some help to James and his crew.

Good work, yet again!

Growl... I feel an overwhelming retaliatory urge to devour a very big serving of calamari!

OMG! I flinched with Jack when the balde pierced him! Not Jack! Lucky for him that he had that cursed trinket on him! You described the effects of the curse particuarlly well, me dear, but as usaul the rest in perfect!

Another intriguing chapter, Caleigho. Good work as always.

Wow! Superbly splendid chapter again! Norrington and Anamaria are deliciously in character, and I loved those two intense moments: when Norrington had his blade to her throat, and when the Kraken rocked their little boat. Man, this is exceeding all expectations! :D
P.S. Oh yeah, in your review your reply, thankee for explainin the whole Aztec gold situation. Clarifies everything a bit better now! :)

> ...(Norrington) in turn, had irked her a bit less by curtailing some of his military issued distain. <

I do appreciate the way you phrased that.

Ah, there's nothing like a lurking kracken to add a touch of menace!
