"Dead men tell no tales" The parrot's squawk broke the eerie silence of the lagoon.

Well, this was depressing. Sailing a ship graveyard would give anybody the heebie-jeebies.

"Puts a chill in the bones how many honest sailors have been claimed by this passage." I think Gibbs put it better.

Wait, we're going down that passage. Oh well, Jack's not exactly an honest sailor, is he?

I walked over to Dana.

"You look like you're up to something. So, spill."

"I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good." She held up her hand, palm facing me.

"Ok, I'm deciding what to do." She said, this time much more serious.

"Yeah. Difficult choice, I'm sure. Get captured by Barbossa and possibly killed or end up stranded on a desert island with Jack.

"And Elizabeth."

"Oh yeah. Good point. Forgot about her. Anyway I'll go and bug Jack. See what we can do." I disappeared to find Jack, who was standing on the deck looking at his compass.

"So, captain…?" I started.

"You're not coming with us. Sorry love, it's just too dangerous."

"Well, either I go or Dana does, so take your pick. Besides the two of us together will cause more havoc for the crew." I stood there, staring at Jack, determinedly.

"All right, you can come. But you and you only." He said. "Try not to get killed." I got the impression he wanted to be rid of us, at least one of us, for a while.

"I'll do my best."

By now we'd walked over to Will and Gibbs. Jack, who had been listening to their conversation, answered to Will:

"Human hair. From my back. Let go of the anchor."

"Let go of the anchor, sir." Replied one of the crew.

"Young Mr. Turner and I are to go ashore. (whispers to Gibbs) Cassie's coming with me. Restrain Dana if you have to."

"Captain! What if the worst should happen?" Gibbs called after us.

"Keep to the code."

"Aye, the code."

As we got into the boat, I looked around for Dana. I couldn't see her. I suspected Gibbs had told already Anamaria to take Dana back to the cabin or below deck. I saw Anamaria come out of the cabin and lock the door from the outside. Oh well, at least it'll keep her out of the way.

So we're in the boat and going into the cave. The water's clear blue and you can see all the way to the bottom. You can see the ship wrecks, not that that's any comfort. Also as we got into the cave, I noticed the floor was littered with gold and other treasure. It was almost entrancing. God, I'm getting distracted by shiny pirate treasure. I made a mental note to steal some before we left (the second time). Could be worth a fortune in the future.

"You know for having such a bleak outlook on pirates you're well on your way to becoming one. Sprung a man from jail, commandeered a ship of the fleet, sailed with a buccaneer crew out of Tortuga…and you're completely obsessed with treasure."

"That's not true. I'm not obsessed with treasure." Will argued.

"Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate." Jack retorted.

They looked down at the assembled pirates and Will uttered one word

"Elizabeth."

Barbossa droned on with his speech while Will and Jack debated how to rescue Elizabeth. Preferably not.

"Can't we just leave her there?"

Will looked at me like he wanted to kill me. Can you say Freudian slip?

""I'll go wait by the boat."

Oh shit I can't believe I just said that. Acting like a jealous love-struck schoolgirl. Well college student. Jealous, jealous my arse.

So there I was, standing by the boat humming some Avril Lavigne song I can't remember the name of. Will and Elizabeth came hurrying out of the cave. Elizabeth took one look at me and said:

"Who's she?"

"A harlot Jack picked up. Let's go."

I whacked him on the arm once we were out at sea.

"Mosquito." I couldn't wait to get back to the ship so I could keep out of the way of these two and see Dana of course. She's gonna kill me.

A/N The mosquito thing is from '101 Ways to Annoy, Harass, Confuse or Generally Scare Lord Voldemort
or: Sure-Fire ways to Get Yourself Killed. (Or At Least Crucio'd Round the Block and Back Again)'. It's beenannoying me all week so I felt I had to put in in.
