At the World's End: our Take
Well, the deleted scenes thread really inspired this one. Let's make our movie. Just add when the spirit of the pirate moves you.
(Opening scene)
Gov. Swann was tossed out of Beckett's office by two menacing looking thugs. Slowly, Beckett followed them outside, looming down over poor Gov. Swann, reduced to a wigless old man.
"I told you," he held the brand. "You will help me with whatever I want or your daughter will be found."
"She could be anywhere!" Gov. Swann summoned his quiet courage. Enough philosophy and class, he thought. Elizabeth needs me. "You would never find her anyway, not with Will Turner with her."
"Will Turner," Beckett laughed. "Oh, Weatherby. How you make me laugh. Elizabeth is in the company of someone much more sinister, much more threatening to not only your reputation, but possibly to her life."
"Jack Sparrow!" Gov. Swann moans.
"Now, I may have already lost Mr. Turner, but you can still help me." He pointed the brand even closer to Gov. Swann's cheek.
"You miserable man! You are more a pirate than the very men you chase."
"Take what's left of the Royal navy that is under your command." Beckett ignored the insult. "You want Elizabeth found? Then send them to find her. My spy informed me she will be in the guise of a young cabin boy. Tell them to keep an especially close watch on The Black Pearl. Now go. Go!"
End scene. Someone else's turn!
