"Get your hands of me you slimy..." the guard shoved me in the cell and locked it.

There is a familiar voice from the next cell, "Sylvia?"

I turn to see a man with graying hair and white sideburns, "Gibbs!  What are you doing here?"

"They think I'm Jack." he rolled his eyes.

"And how did they come to that conclusion?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Nevermind." he said quickly.

We sat in silence for a few moments then he asked, "So how did ye come to be here?"

"I was arrested for associating with Jack." I informed him.

"Barbossa?" he inquired.

"He has joined them." I said through gritted teeth.

"Barbossa?!  Great pirate lord of the Caspian Sea?" he was confused.

"I'd rather not talk about it." I turned my head away.

A few more moments of silence, "What of the Pearl?"

"Sunk!" I spat.

"They sunk his ship and he joined them?!" he was amazed.

"It wasn't the navy what took down the Pearl.  It was the Queen Anne's Revenge." I corrected.

"Blackbeard!" he said in awe.

"Aye.  Barbossa and I were the only survivors." I said sadly.

"What happended to the crew?" he asked.

"Trapped below deck."

He shuddered, "A terrible way ta go."

I nodded.
