"At last" said James in agreement as the crew members began to row them towards the Reaper...
"Oooh that's a good boy! you're daddy's boy, oh yes you are" said Barbossa as Jack the Monkey snatched a nut from his hand and ate it, as a couple of crew members came up to the wheel. "Sir! some of the men don't feel entirely settled about leaving Captain Jack behind..." started one. another whispered "Again" in his ear. "...Again" said the man to finish his sentence. "Is that so?" said Barbossa as he eyed the crew members. "It would make us feel a whole lo' be'er regardin' our fortunes if we could see that eyes-land you told us about" he said as another one said "On de charts". "Aye" said a couple of overly clean looking pirates [which, unbeknownsed to the crew were recently defecting British Soldiers from the battle a few months back]. "With our own eyes?" said the crew member representing the bunch, as another said "To help put an ease to our burden of guilt, so to speak". "Arr....Feast yer eyes upon this, mateys..." started Barbossa as he grabbed the charts. "...there's more than one way to live forever...Gents, i give ya the fountain of youth" he said before grabbing the end of the charts and unrolling them, holding it spread out to show the crew. the crew members stared on excitedly, before frowning in confusion as they stared. Barbossa stared down at the charts, before lifting them up and looking at them....a huge hole about 3/4 the size of the charts, containing all the details in it....gone. "Sparrow" said Barbossa irritably as he examined the rips...
"Yo ho yo ho a Pirate's life for me" hummed Jack as he raised his own flag, a black jolly roger showing the skull from the side, a bandana on it's head and a red Sparrow above it to one side. Jack opened the piece of the charts he had, looking at it and twisting it around until the Fountain of Youth was visible. "We're devils and black sheep, really...bad eggs..." he hummed before stopping. something was missing. he pulled out his compass and examined it it pointed behind him to the right. he looked down to his right and spotted what he was looking for. pulling out a large bottle of rum, he bit onto the cork and pulled it out., and looking at the compass again, which changed it's direction so it pointed ahead of him, to the left. "Drink up me hearties yo ho!" he said as he glugged the Rum, changing course and heading towards the Fountain of Youth...
"Ah yes, organised chaos. the sign of a clever but ever-busy mind. To the perpetrator, a carefully woven web of belongings and intrigue, but to the bystander? Madness!"
