((T'was both of our idea, but...aye.  ))
For once in his lifetime, Barbossa was literally speechless. He merely stared at Jack, his mouth partly open, struggling to form a reply that could be uttered in the presence of two ladies. " Turner?!" he finally spat, indicating the young man in question with a pointed finger. "I be easily thirty years his senior, an' far more experienced. There should be no question concernin' which one o' us be the more qualified!"
"That's my son you're insultin', Barbossa," Bootstrap warned, a hand drifting to the hilt of his sword.
"I'm merely statin' a fact," Barbossa replied, undaunted. "Between a seasoned veteran such as myself an' a young upstart whelp of a pirate, the choice be clear."

(He he! Well done POTR as well!)
Will squinted as he heard shouts and voices of men raised in apparent anger or some sort of argument. Taking Elizabeth with him, he neared the ledge of the Pearl and tried to listen and make out what exactly was happening.
"What is it?" asked Elizabeth pryly.
"Shhhhh.." Will said as his eyes remained on a shouting Barbossa and a content Jack Sparrow.

"Aye, choice is clear mate." Jack pointed to the Pearl, "Black Pearl goes to the whelp...so let it be written..so let it be done."
Captain Jack sashayed himself away from Hector and leaned over The Dutchman's railing. "Oio! Will! Get o'er 'ere!"

Will heard Jack's call and proceeded to walk across a plank that was laid between both ships.
"Will! Wait!" Elizabeth shouted as he wanted desperately to follow Will. She did not want to be left alone with Pintel and Ragetti aboard the Pearl.
"No! Stay there. I will be back," Will ordered with a point of his index finger. Walking across the plank, he eventually was back on that familiar moss infested ship...the Dutchman.

Jack snapped his fingers in the air and whistled for William until the young man now stood by his side.
"Well mate," Jack rested a proud hand on Will's shoulder and lifted his head into the sky, "Looks like my said ship no longer has a Captain. And seeing as though my said ship has no more Captain I will be giving her a Captain. That said Captain being...," Jack's eyes rolled over to Will's and he smirked, showing off his set of shark teeth, "...You. Savvy?"

(I think I'll wait for POTR responses to this.  )

Will stared at Jack for a few long moments until it actually sunk into his understanding. "The Pearl? You want me to have the Black Pearl?" Will said with his jaw dropping open and his hands hanging limply at his side. Could it be? Jack Sparrow? Handing over the Pearl to him?
With a brushing back of his loose hair, Will smiled with his eyes downcast and said, "I don't know what to say.....well....Jack....I'd be honored to---"
Shifting his gaze to Elizabeth across the way, his heart softened and he looked down to his boots. "I'm sorry Jack. But I can't take this offer. Elizabeth and I are to be wed and live in Port Royal. Jack, we will establish our lives and family there." He sighed and said, once again, "I'm sorry, Jack."

Jack flapped a dismissive hand high over his head. "Nonsense mate..."
He brushed past Will and pushed Bootstrap off to the side, "Look! There's yer first man!"
He scitter-scattered his way over to Barbossa and pushed him into place, "And look! Yer ring boy!"
Jack then ran across the ramp to The Black Pearl, coming back with Elizabeth snatched in his arm, obviously ignoring her annoying rants and questions of this madness before pushing her into Will's arms, "Oio...yer bride!"
Captain Jack then proudly jumped upon the steps to the upper deck, straightned out his coat, patted his hat, straightened his rings, put on a smirk then said with great confidence, "And I...will be performing this mar-ri-age. Right here, right on this deck. Right...now."

Bootstrap, doing his best to ignore Jack's antics, moved over to Will and hesitantly placed a hand on the young man's arm. He felt like, as the father, he should have some sage words of advice to offer, but words had never exactly been his strong point. "Will..." he finally began haltingly. "I can't choose for you, or e'en tell you which path t' choose. I can only offer my experience... Yer a Turner, Will, through an' through. An' a Turner can only last so long on land. Trust me; I tried... Eventually, you'll hear 'er siren call once again, an' you'll have t' make a choice: the sea, or your wife... An' so help me, if you ever repeat your old man's mistake, I will personally hunt you down an' beat some sense into you, no matter how old you are. Jack is offerin' you th' chance t' have both... All I know is that if I'd been given that choice...I'd've taken it in a heartbeat."

(Just a question....who is James Norrington?)
Elizabeth grimaced as Jack carelessly threw her into Will's chest. Not only did Jack irritate her injury to her arm, but now she was frustrated with him more than ever about this whole marriage situation.
"And just who are you decide about our life together?" Elizabeth snapped as Jack. Her eyes glazed with unbelief as Jack's selfish impulses.
William on the other hand had everything given to him at one time....the Pearl, Jack's offer of marriage to Elizabeth, and now his father's advice of both. This was just too much at once!
Staring at his father, he could see the truth ringing through his eyes....but he wasn't sure if he wanted to live on a ship his whole life. He knew for sure that he loved Elizabeth, but.....who would take care of the Pearl? Barbossa? No...Jack wouldn't have it....
Feeling pressured, Will did not respond to anyone.
Elizabeth frowned at Will and grabbed tightly onto his shirt collar, "William Turner, this is your decision, but I do not desire to be married by a....pirate on this ship. Not now, Will. This is not how I wanted it....but....you must decide." Her eyes were faithfully resting on Will and her heart was hoping that he would go back to Port Royal with her so that they could spend their life like a normal couple.
Will's eyes blinked with uncertainty as he looked to Jack, Bootstrap, Barbossa and then back to Bootstrap. "I...I trust my father's word, Elizabeth and I will not abandon you as he did my mother. However, the Pearl will be in our possession and we will both live our lives on the ocean," he said while holding her hands softly.

Jack smirked gingerly and gestured for Elizabeth and Will to draw near, "Good, all settled then. Just say, "I do." after I get done speakin' and there ye 'ave it! It won't be long at all, I'll be as quick as a snail what have slippy boots on in a high wind."

"If th' boy doesn't want t' be captain, he shouldn't have to," Barbossa argued stubbornly. "I can just as easily take th' Pearl, leavin' him free to live as he wishes with 'is new bride."

Will shuffled his feet nervously as he heard Barbossa's argument. Feeling some added weight on his shoulders, the stare of Jack waiting for him, and the softness of Elizabeth's hands in his, Will shut his eyes to try and drown out all the things coming into his mind.
Elizabeth, knowing William better than anyone, lifted his chin allowing his eyes to meet hers, "I have faith in you, Will Turner." Her face was gentle and loving.
Seeing Elizabeth, melted Will's heart. Caressing her hand, he said, "Thank you..." His eyes shifted over her shoulder and toward Jack, "I am sorry about the wedding arrangements." He let out a soft laugh and then escorted Elizabeth and himself to Jack Sparrow.

Jack tapped his boot impatiently and followed Will and Elizabeth with his eyes as they neared what he called, the 'alter'.
"Now, to business savvy?" Jack proudly stepped in between the young couple with a saunty look in his eye. With a clearing of his throat Captain Jack began, "Do ye, William Turner, take thee, Lizzie.." Jack corrected himself with a taunty smirk, "Take thee, Elizabeth Swann, to be yer wedded wife, to have and to...have..." Despite the mistake, Jack continued with, "From this day forward, for better or bloody worse, for richer or bloody poorer, through bloody sickness or in health, to love and to love some more, till hangin' do ye part?"
Well, at least he got some of the vows right.
