Jack shrugged in a rebelious way. "Don't think 'e would use that same technique on me this time 'round...and what could be worst than that eh?"
BZZZZZ!
This time in the shocking round, a bolt of white electricity was seen, and it lit up the weak lighted cabin.

Bootstrap laughed humorlessly. "Ye don't know Jones very well, do ye? 'e always 'as a worse punishment. An' they're not always physical," he added, thinking back to the events following Will's escape. He was abruptly drawn out of his painful reminiscion, however, by an equally painful jolt of electricity. "Bloody-...yer gettin' better at that," he muttered, pulling further away from Jack. He glanced around the cabin, then sighed defeatedly. "Look, if I look in th' bloody mirror, will ye knock it off an' head back with me? Jones seems in a worse mood than usual, an' I'd rather not give 'im reason to take it out on us...not that 'e ever needs one."

Yes, Jack was geting better at his new found trick, but to Jack's unforunate state, each time a shock would run through his body, it quickened the transforming cells, therefore something new would appear on his body, or it would make his receant growths look worse and worse everytime it happened.
"Yup, I' good with that!" he exclaimed, not paying attention to the new addtions spurting out from his body from the electric zap he gave Bill.

((Where is everyone else? *looks around*))
Muttering several less-than-friendly oaths under his breath, Bootstrap sighed again and strode over to the mirror in question. Jack's gonna pay for this...
He paused as he finally reached the mirror and looked up at the reflection before him. He wasn't sure what he'd been expecting, but it wasn't this.
The fact that he was essentially covered in barnacles and other sea life was no surprise, of course. He'd been painfully aware of each and every time that a growth decided to form, and their weight was a daily reminder of their presence. He hadn't been fully aware of just how large the starfish had grown -it was all but covering the right side of his face now- nor how far some of the formations on his shoulders now protruded, but overall, no surprises there.
The icy blue eyes and pale complexion, he had expected. The others went through the same changes. They were just part of the transformation process.
No, none of that took him by surprise. What did catch him off guard, however, was just how much older he truly looked. The lines in his face -or rather, what few lines hadn't been covered by barnacles- were decidedly more pronounced. Though the color of his eyes didn't surprise him, the lively spark they'd once held had long since been replaced by the dull weariness of a man who'd been through more than should be asked of any individual. He'd always been a tall man, but his shoulders were now hunched with time and worry.
He wasn't sure why the thought had never occured to him that he had, in fact, aged. He'd noticed that Jack now looked about the age he'd been right before the mutiny, and he'd certainly noticed that Will was no longer a little boy. Time had passed, and he knew that. He'd just never stopped to think that he'd gone with it.
After a moment more of examination, he nodded shortly and shrugged. "Not so bad," he finally said, grinning dryly at Jack. "I'm gettin' old."

(Sorry...I've been busy the last 2 days.)
Once Will and Elizabeth walked the gangplank and arrived solidly on Tortuga's dirt streets, they immediately began their task of finding supplies. ----------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, aboard the Black Pearl, Ragetti sat on the ledge of the ship and daggled his legs overboard. "We 'ave an easy job, don't we?" he said with a smirk to Pintel.

Jack waltzed himself over to Bootstrap's side, where he took a stand by Bill, and also examined himself in the mirror again.
"Well,..." he started, a bit casually, "It's not so bad...what could get worse on me mate?" He grinned, and smirked at Bootstrap's face in the reflection in the mirror.

"Well, for starters-" Bootstrap was suddenly cut off by the sharp cracking of a whip on the wooden floor.
"I knew I'd find ye miserable maggots slackin' 'ere!" the bo'sun growled furiously, coming out from the shadows. "Get yer sorry hides back ta th' Dutchman while they're still in one piece!"
Avoiding eye contact with the angry bo'sun, Bootstrap hurriedly ducked his head and walked into the wall, not waiting to see if Jack did the same.
"I said move it, Sparrow!" the bo'sun snarled, cracking his whip again.

Jack squinted his eyes in an irrated mannor, "Or ye'll do what?"
He raised a hand to correct the Bo'sun, "And, that's Captain Sparrow to ye mate..." His face was serious, but at the moment, he didn't realize he was making another one of his witty mistakes.

As Will and Elizabeth walked the dirty and sloppy streets of Tortuga, Will placed his hand around Elizabeth's waist tightly. He was not comfortable with all these strange drunken men around Elizabeth...she was his very special love. "Stay close to me," he whispered to her as they approached a dock that supplied lifeboats. -----------------------------------------------
Elizabeth looked at her surroundings in disgust. She did not mind being this close to Will though....actually she scooted much closer.
(Waiting for Eruraina)

Pintel stayed in the crow's nest, snoozing a bit. He glanced down as the others left, then looked down at Ragetti.
"What'cha wonna do now?"

Ragetti pulled out a small brown square cover of a book from the the inside of his jacket and waved it in the air. "Come down 'ere and I'll tell ya!" he shouted back to Pintel.

Grumbling, Pintel climbed down from the crows nest.
"What is it, Ragetti?"

Ragetti motioned to Pintel to come closer, "This should keep up busy for a while. And it may 'elp us make decisions." He pulled a smile revealing his brown and rotting teeth.

Pintel glared at him.
"Just tell what it is!"

"Oi, I'm 'orribly sorry, Cap'n Sparrow," Jimmylegs sneered, bowing mockingly. "Near forgot me manners there. Get back ta th' Dutchman 'fore I strip ev'ry last piece o' flesh from yer miserable bones, please!" He cracked his whip again, this time allowing it to taste flesh.

"It's the Bible you babbling mongrol!" Ragetti snapped at Pintel with his squeeking wooden eye. "It's divine province that escaped us from world's end."
