Dammit, people! 😱 We're all supposed to follow each other. I'll do another to get people going.
"What was that?" Will is the first to speak.
"No creature alive makes that kind of sound," Gibbs says knowingly yet fearingly. "None alive, cept the siren."
"Siren?" Liz asks.
"Dreaful beasts of beauty," Tia says. "Dey will sing and sing til we go mad and kill each other."
"Source of optimism, aren't you?" Will retorts. "There has to be a way to frighten them away!"
Ok, I think I figured it out. The ship they were on hit the reef and they arrived on the island. Is that fair? I don't want to continue if it isn't fair. (sorry again)
"Sacrifice something?" Gibbs gripped Tia by the shoulders. "There is the four of us! What can we sacrifice?"
"The compass," Will suggested.
"No!" Liz held it to her chest. "We'll need it to..." she cut herself off. She wanted to say the only way to find Jack was to use the compass.
Before anyone could decide, the sound grew louder. Without any further warning, the siren, a large eagle-like bird with the face of a woman, swooped down and snatched Tia in its talons.
You flatter me, diddly. This is everyone's story, remember.
"You're going to tell me everything," Norrington pointed the sword straight at Gov. Swann's neck.
"How dare you! To think I would have given you my blessing to become my son-in-law."
"Yet I am still a step above the mediocre Will Turner," he laughed. "How did Elizabeth escape jail in the first place?"
"Everyone knows by now it was my doing," Gov. Swann confessed. "I just knew Beckett's deal with young Will sounded too good to be true. Jack Sparrow is impossible to find! And now the three of them, their lives intertwined again. If you were a gentleman at all, you would be out looking for her!"
"You're not the one in position to make demands," Norrington snapped. "I'm leaving here with information one way or another."
"What more could you possibly want to know?"
"I want to know your daughter's greatest desire."
Gov. Swann clenched his teeth and raised an eyebrow. Of all the things he might be interrogated for...but Elizabeth's greatest desire? To marry Will Turner was his first thought, but he double checked. He had been her only companion since her mother died, felt he knew her well. Her greatest desire....
"I'm waiting," Norrington warned.
"Her greatest desire has always been to have her adventure," he began.
"She's having it now. What else? You're not saying everything."
"You were there that day, Norrington. She said it quite plainly. She was a little girl, just before rescuing a little boy. She wanted to be a pirate."
"Fascinating. Thank you, Gov. Swann. I will leave you now," he said. He hesitated for only a moment, then ran his sword into the governor's thigh. "Lord Beckett will be pleased at this revelation."
Gov. Swann screamed in pain when Norrington drew his sword out.
"I'll be off." Norrington said."But I'll leave you with some,... company.I wouldn't want you to be lonely."He finished snirling.
"Just don't harm her."Swann said barely audiable.
"I think thats the least of your worries."Norrington said without looking back.norrington let two vicious looking Masstiffs with Gov Swann. Once the dogs saw the blood the proweled forward, like cats stalking a mouse,....
Someone else!
ooh, I'll leave it at a cliffhanger
"What do you mean she has the compass?" Gibbs asked.
"She has two and they both do the same thing. She wanted it from me for just a moment and that's when it happened," Liz confessed.
"Elizabeth, we need it," Will said.
Of course we do, she thought. Is that all you can offer? "Then we have to track down the siren."
"Track down the siren?" Gibbs barked. "Is that as easy as say, finding a man lost to the ends of the earth?"
"We have to, don't we?" Liz argued back. "And I think I know how. Follow me."
Cut to Norrington and Beckett having some whiskey together.
"Good choice of drink," Beckett says. "This way we arent supporting those pirate rum-runners."
"Well, I think I've figured out what Elizabeth wants most."
"Yes? Why does it matter?"
"Because her greatest desire and ours is the same."
Beckett leans forward in his chair. "Jack Sparrow?"
Norrington smiles sinisterly. "She alone knows how to find him, with the compass. If we find her, we will find him."
"Imagine... finally destroying Captain Jack Sparrow." Beckett gets up, excited, and begins pacing. "Do you think Jack reciprocates her feelings?"
Norrington suddenly looks interested.
"Because, she would be a powerful bargaining tool..." Beckett insinuated...
