Third Person Pov:

After awhile sailing the area they decided to check out a small island area, Everyone being with two or three people the boat that held Jack were one of his crew mates and Anara in the middle while William was on another rowing boat with someone else. "Why is Jack afraid of the open ocean?" Will asked. "Well, if you believe such things there's a beast does the bidding of Davy Jones, a fearsome creature with giant tentacles that'll suction your face clean off, and drag an entire ship down to the crushing darkness" Gibbs started as he paused for a short while. "The kraken" Gibbs finished. Everyone looked towards each other in fear and shock. Anara just rolled her eyes, she's dealt with things that are much worse that the kraken. "They say the stench of it's breath is like" Gibbs said then shuddered getting cut off by Anara. "Imagine, the last thing you know on this green earth is the roar of the kraken and the reeking door of a thousand rotting corpses" Anara said every so slowly so that everyone may fear this wild beast. "If you believe such things" Gibbs said. "And the key will spare him that?" Will asked. "Well, that's the very question Jack want's answered" Gibbs said. "Bad enough to go visit...her" Gibbs said. "Her? You talking about her right there cause we've all already met her to see that she is a jerk" Will said. "Aw, do my insults and truth hurt you Will Turner? Well guess what learn to deal with it, your a pirate act like one then" Anara said.


*mini time skip*

After awhile of looking around the area for our specific destination the pirate crew had finally found it. It was a small looking shed in the middle of no where, the area being surrounded by tree's and vines as if it were a forest. Once Jack's row boat had reached the entrance he got out first with Anara following. "No worries, mates Tia Dalma and I go way back, thick as thieves nigh inseparable, we are. We're have been" Jack said. "Oh my gosh, just get in the stupid shelter before I break down the door and throw you in there" Anara said. "I'll watch your back" Gibbs said towards Jack. "It's me front I'm worried about" Jack said. "Mind the boat" Gibbs told Will. "Mind the boat" Will told another one of the pirates and so on until they reached the end. Anara groaned slightly and kicked the door down and shoved Jack and everyone else in the shelter. "Gosh love, no need to be so harsh" Jack said as he dusted himself off. "Who's fault is that, you should've taken my warning" Anara said. "Jack Sparrow" a woman's voice said in a very slow and intimidating tone. "Tia Dalma" Jack said. "I always knew the wind was going to blow you back to me one day" Dalma said. "Your in the right, but in the wrong as well because he has company this time" Anara said. When Dalma met eyes with Anara she looked quite shocked and slightly walked towards Anara. "You..." she started. "I sense destiny within you, but your lost, frustrated, broken,unstable" Dalma started. "All you seek is love and guidance, nothing more" Dalma said. "I don't possibly know what your talking about, like love" Anara scoffed. "Why have love, when you can have rum" Anara said. "You deny it just to show you are not weak, you act like this because of your past Mrs. Spade" Dalma said. Everyone, ever Jack looked at Anara with curiosity, wonder and confusion. Anara just cleared her throat and looked at the ground. "Just move on to whatever you were going to say" Anara said. Dalma then looked towards Will. "And you" she started. "You have a touch of destiny about you, William Turner. Will looked at Dalma with confusion in his eyes. "You know me?" Will asked. "You want to know me" Dalma asked as she slightly got close to Will. Before anything could happen Anara grabbed her pistol and shot the bullet between the two. "There will be no knowing here, and also we have guests here so that'll be just awkward" Anara said as she put her pistol away. "The only thing we came here for was for help and we're not leaving without whether it's the last thing I do until I die" Anara said. Jack then pulled Dalma away from Will. "I thought I knew you?" Jack stated. "Not so well as I hoped" Dalma said. "Come" Dalma said. "Come" Jack repeated. "Yeah we heard her you idiot" Anara said rolling her eyes. "What service may I do you?" Dalma asked as Will was taking a seat. "You know I demand payment" Dalma said. "Well lucky for you, I brought payment" Jack said as he then got a cage with a monkey in it. "Look" Jack said. Just as he was about to shoot at it Anara shot at it first but lucky for the monkey it didn't get shot. "An undead monkey probably one of the best payments anyone could possibly have" Anara stated sarcastically as she rolled her eyes. "Top that" Jack said as he put the cage down. Dalma took the cage and opened the cage just for the monkey to escape. "Don't! You have no idea how long it took us to catch that" Gibbs said. "The payment is fair" Dalma said. "We're looking for this" Anara said as she got the paper with the picture of the key on it and slammed it on the desk. "And what it goes to" Will said. "The compass you bartered from me, it cannot lead you to this" Dalma said as she looked at Jack. "Maybe, why?" Jack asked. Anara just face palmed, apparently all male pirates are all idiots. "I hear you" Dalma said. "Jack Sparrow doesn't know what he wants" Dalma said. "Or do you know, but are loath to claim it as your own" Dalma said. "Your key go to a chest, and it is what lay inside the chest you seek, don't it" Dalma said. "What is inside it?" Gibbs asked. "Gold? Jewels unclaimed properties of a valuable nature?" Asked one of the Pirates. "Nothing bad, I hope" Said another one of the pirates. Anara sighed. "If you know of Davy Jones you would know, but I suppose I'll tell you" Anara said. "Davy Jones, a man of the sea, a great sailor, until he run afoul of that which vex all men" Anara said as she saw Jack twirling his fingers around his pistol. Anara glared at him and slightly pulled hers out and gave him a warning glare. Jack just looked up at Anara and smiled. "What vexes all men?" Will asked. Dalma chuckles. "What indeed" Dalma said. "The sea" Gibbs said. "Sums" said one of the pirates. "The dichotomy of good and evil" said the other pirate. Anara just face palmed. "A woman" Jack and Anara said in sync. "A woman, he fell in love" Dalma said. "No, No, No, No. I heard it was the sea he fell in love with" Gibbs said. "Same story, different versions and all are true" Dalma said. "See, it was a woman as changing and harsh and untamable as the sea, like Anara Spade" Dalma said as she looked towards Anara then looked back at the other group of pirates. "Him never stopped loving her, but the pain it cause him was too much to live with but not enough to cause him to die" Dalma said. "What exactly did he put in the chest" Will asked. "His heart" Anara said not even looking at Will just looking at the ground as she was leaning against the wall. "Literally or figuratively" A pirate asked. "He couldn't literally put his heart in the chest" Gibbs said. "Could he?" The other pirate asked. "It was not worth feeling what small, fleeing joy life brings. And so... he carved his heart out" Anara said slowly still not looking towards the other pirates. "He locked it away in a chest and hid it from the world, and the key he kept with him at all times" Anara said. "You both knew this" Will said as he looked towards Anara and Jack. "Don't look at me look at him I just came here so don't blame me" Anara said. "I didn't know where the key was but, now we do" Jack said. "All that's left is climb aboard the Flying Dutchman, grab the key and-" Jack explained as he then got cut off by Anara. "You go to Port Royal and save your stupid lover or wife or whatever" Anara said. "Let me see your hands" Dalma said as she got up and held her hand out. Jack and Anara stopped in their tracks. Jack looked at his hand and Anara looked at her hers. They then walked towards Dalma and each of them gave them their hands as Dalma took hold of them. Jack's hand was covered with bandage wraps while the same was with Anara. Jack's was the first one to be revealed. Gibbs gasped. "The black Spot!" Gibbs exclaimed. "The black spot!" Ragetti exclaimed along with Pinetel. "My eyesight is as good as ever just so you know" Jack said. Dalma then looked towards Anara's hand and then slowly unwrapped the bandage. On the palm of Anara's hand was an odd looking symbol.


Everyone looked at the symbol and gulped

Everyone looked at the symbol and gulped. "How long have you had this mark for?" Dalma asked. "Ever since my mother gave me this" Anara said as she showed Dalma the golden necklace her mother had given her as a child since birth.


Dalma shook her head and let go of Anara's hand

Dalma shook her head and let go of Anara's hand. "This necklace was a curse passed on to each new generation of women in the Evergreen family" Dalma said. Anara looked quite shocked at the news but shook it off. "So your telling me that my mother, Emily Evergreen was cursed because of this necklace and had to pass it down to me" Anara said. Dalma didn't say anything but just nodded her head. "Well, what's the curse?" Anara asked. "Your weakness" Dalma said. "The curse is where you have to face your weakness, one from the past, a weakness that made you feel miserable, Broken and lost and you know what that weakness is Anara Spade" Dalma said. "Love" Anara said in a slight quiet tone. Anara just shook her head and looked back at Dalma. "Just get whatever you need to get" Anara said. "I have just the thing. Now where did I put it?" Dalma said as she walked away from the area. "My little beauties where are you?" "Such a long time such a mess" Dalma said. Jack and Anara saw a gold necklace and a ring Jack took the ring while Anara took the necklace. She might steal the ring from Jack later on though. "Davy Jones cannot make port. Cannot step on land but once every ten years" Dalma said. "So the only area where me and Jack are safe is land, isn't it" Anara stated. "Correct, and so you will carry land with you" Dalma said as she gave Jack a big jar of Sand. Anara looked at the jar and cocked and eyebrow. "Dirt?, Ma'am this is a literal jar of dirt" Anara said. "Yes" Dalma stated. "So your telling me that this jar of dirt is going to help us" Anara asked. "If you don't want it, give it back" Dalma said. Just as Anara was about to say something she was cut off by Jack. "No" Jack said as he hugged the jar. "Then it helps" Dalma said. Anara just face palmed for the millionth time in a row. "It seems we have a need to find the Flying Dutchman" Will said. Dalma took a seat and then grabbed onto something and held it in her hands and started to roll it as if it were a pair of dice. "A touch of destiny" Dalma said as she released the lobster claws just for it to land on the map to lead to one specific area, an area that Anara was very familiar with. The area where Anara's whole crew and family had died the day she became Captain at a very young age.
