Will shut his eyes as he slammed the cup onto the table. He then slowly hunched his shoulders over and took a quick peek under the cup.....three 3's, one 4, and one 5.

He watched the faces of Bootstrap and Davey as they bid. His stomach turned to knots when Davey bet. His eyes dodged back and forth....is thoughts swarmed inside his head....sweat beads formed on his forhead....his hands began to sweat.

Will thought carefully about what he should do....he wasn't sure if Davey was bluffing or telling the truth.....

Suddenly he hit his hand on the table and yelled at Davey, "LIAR!" Will then sat back....almost in shock in what he'd said.

With a glare Davy revealed his dice, waiting for the other two to do the same...

Will was about to lift his cup but then turned his eyes toward Bootstrap. He was afraid to lift his cup and wanted his father to do it first. Will's heart pumped rapidly....his hands began slippery with sweat....his stomach twisted......as he waited.

"Please, please, please...." Will thought.

During the game, Jack had poked his head in amongst the mutated crew, and watched the game with focus swelling in his eyes.

His hands made strange movements and his brow bent feeling almost just as nervous as the ones playing the game.

And with a good reason he was nervous, bloody Bill had Jack's soul on the line!

Bootstrap sat there nervously, willing himself to lift the cup. Quickly, as if the action was too painful to draw out, he yanked the cup up away from the dice and slammed it back down next to them. There were now five sixes on the table. If Will had even one six, all would be lost...

Will felt like a huge weight was lifted off his shoulders when he saw Bootstrap's dice. Calmness came over him and a small grin appeared on his once fearful face.

He pulled back his cup slowly staring at Davey's blue eyes. "Jones, you are a bloody LIAR!" He then slammed the cup back down onto the table.

In a burst of rage, Jones stood up so fast it nocked the table, his stool, and the game tumble all over the deck. He grabbed will's coller, and pushed him tward the plank.
"Get goin' a'fore I decide to kill ye' as a way of gettin' free fron yo' hundred years!" he said, and turned back to Bootstrap, "What 'bout you?"

During this chain of events, after the table had been knocked over, Jack bent low between the legs of the Flying Dutchman's crew and reached for one of the dice that lie on the moss infested deck.

"Gotcha..." he whispered. He slowly stood up and pocketed the dice. Why he did this, he really didn't know, it just looked interesting to keep.

Bootstrap felt as though a heavy weight had been lifted from his chest as he realized that Will was free, only to be promptly replaced by a feeling of immense guilt over what he had just done to Jack. Looking up at Jones, he inclined his head almost imperceptibly. "What about me, Cap'n?" he echoed numbly.

(Does Bootstrap now play Davey alone?)

Will stumbled backward as he was pushed by Jones. He balanced on the plank and steadied himself. The deep dark ocean laid below his feet. He swallowed hard as he thought of the kraken that could be lurking anywhere.

"This is not exactly what I meant by setting me free, Jones!" Will shouted.

"Well what did ye' expect?" Davy turned back to Will, "That ye' get a ship and a good bye present?"

He pointed with his claw hand tward the shore were a the longboat was going, "Theres yeah boat. Go, and I gope you know how to swim!"

He turned back to his crew, "get to work, that includes you bootstrap, AND Jack!"

(Well... if Bootstrap is to play Davy, let me know and I'll edit the post!)

Jack's mouth fell agape and his eyebrows caved inwards at Davey Jones' last comment to him. "What?"

His eyes shifted at Davey Jones, to Will, then finally to Bootstrap, his betrayer. "So..." he lowered his voice and intended only Bill to hear him, "Bein' on this ship so long; seems as though Jones 'as finally left his thumb print of cold cruelness on ye..."

Will looked toward the longboat that Davey had pointed out. He squinted his eyes as he tried to examine it more closely...even though it was many feet away from him. The wood seemed to be rotting and insecure. Mold and clams were attached to it. Will didn't even want to know what the odor would smell like.

He inched his way toward the edge of the plank but then looked back toward Jack. "Psssssssssstttt! Psssssssttt! Jack...." Will whispered, trying to get his attention.

Bootstrap suddenly seemed to find the wooden planking of the deck very fascinating as he continued to avoid Jack's eyes. In response to the man's accusation, he simply muttered, "What a man can and can't do, Jack." A dull tingling in his left arm alerted him to the imminence of a new growth, but he ignored it for the time being.

Jack ignored William, and kept his gaze towards Bill, but his eyebrows frowned slightly as he felt a sort of sympathy for the man.

"Jones 'as ruined what dignity ye once 'ad when I last knew ye mate..." He smirked dryly and shifted his weight.
