Disclaimer: I do not own Pirates of the Caribbean. I do not own the characters. Even though I wish I owned Jack.
Author's Note: Ok folks, I hope you all like it. I really didn't want to change Jack, and I don't, so I apologize if he's out of character at the moment. I tried to make it like him, but oh well. Please review, this is the only chapter I've written and if you review I'll update quicker. Hope you all enjoy.

" Is it true, Elizabeth?" asked a slightly nervous Will Turner.
" Yes, Yes it is Will. The doctor has informed me I am to have your child." She smiled as she told him the good news.
It had been a couple months since the pirate ordeal had happened. Will and Elizabeth were dating, and they hadn't heard from Jack, but assumed he was doing well.
" We must get married." Said Will hugging Elizabeth.
" Of course!" Elizabeth replied.
"We must inform Jack, I will send him a letter." Will said while running over to a desk and pulling out a piece of paper.
Elizabeth walked over to the window and looked out over the ocean, and said to herself, " Jack Sparrow, where are you?" She saw the light blue waves crash against the bone white sand of the beach, and sighed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was a couple weeks later and there was still no word from Jack. Elizabeth and Will were on the fort; looking at the place they were to be married.
Will stared at Elizabeth tracing the grout lines in the cobblestone wall. He turned and walked away to the other side of the fort, to where Governor Swann was.
Elizabeth heard Will and her father talking and heard their voices become quieter. She assumed they were walking away, away from the cliff. Elizabeth took deep breaths thinking to what her future would be like. She would become the new Mrs. Turner, and they would have a child together. But part of her felt awful because of Will. Will was a pirate, how could a pirate be married with children? He would never sail, and he said he never wanted to, but Elizabeth couldn't help feel she was condemning him to a horrible life.
Elizabeth began to feel faint. She was told because she was pregnant, it was expected she might pass out. She leaned against the cobblestone wall and began to take deep breaths. But it was no match; she lost consciousness and fell over the edge, straight into the water.
Captain Jack Sparrow was sailing the Black Pearl into the port. After he heard of Elizabeth and Will's news of getting married he rushed to get back to Port Royal.
He heard a splash, and looked at the water and then up at the fort. He removed his hat and personal effects and dove in ever so gracefully. He swam down deeper and deeper until he reached the sinking girl.
She was far too heavy with the dress she was carrying, so he ripped it off and took her ashore. He brought her onto the dock and laid her down. He recognized her it was Elizabeth.
He quickly cut open her corset, and she began breathing again. She spit out a bit of water, and looked up at her rescuer.
" Jack!" she exclaimed.
" Yes, Elizabeth darling. I 'ave returned." He smiled at her widely showing off his gold teeth.
" Thank you so much for saving me." She smiled as she tried to sit up. She lost her balance and Jack put a hand behind her back helping her up.
" Did you jump to get away from the eunuch?" Jack asked slurring.
" Who?" Elizabeth asked puzzled
"Will." Stated Jack.
" No, no, I didn't jump to get away from him or our marriage." Said Elizabeth staring at Jack.
" Why then? What happened?" Jack said inquisitively.
" I fainted. I'm pregnant." Elizabeth said smiling.
Jack stopped dead in his tracks. He asked her seriously in a hushed tone, " Is it, uh , Is it..ummm…"
" Will's?" Elizabeth started, " of course it's Will's. Who else's would it be?" She said annoyed. She was not some wench, she thought to herself.
" Just making sure." Jack said lowly. Turning his head.
* He remembered back to when they were marooned on the Island. *
After all the rum, Jack and Elizabeth were sitting on the beach talking.
" Oh, poor Will!" said Elizabeth drunkenly.
Jack sparrow had, had quite about enough of Elizabeth going on and on about the fate of Will.
" Yes, yes I'm sure he's fine." Said Jack creeping his arm around Elizabeth once more.
She put her head on his shoulder and nuzzled her face in his neck. And said " Oh, poor Jack!" and then laughed hysterically.
Jack put his hand behind her head and tangled his fingers in her hair, He brought her forward towards to him. And she put her arm around him, and tried to make a serious face, but then laughed and grabbed his rum and downed the rest of it.
" Eh, easy on the rum, love." Jack said as he tried to take the bottle from her.
" I don't think so, Mr. Sparrow. You did say 'Welcome to the Caribbean, Love'" she said impersonating his voice, " so I'm going to enjoy it."
" Well, you make a good point!" he yelled out drunkenly grabbing two more bottles and giving one to Elizabeth.
She drank some and giggled furiously, and put her head in Jack's lap.
" Oh… My…Elizabeth….Elizabeth! No, no darling." He said removing her head from his lap.
" Oh, but jack I love you!" she screamed.
" And I, love you, Elizabeth!" He said laughing.
She leaned in and kissed him. He kissed her back and his hands roamed her body and grabbed her thighs and brought her into his lap. She pushed him against the warm sand, and he rolled on top of her.
He kissed her neck and she moaned out in pleasure. Her hands moved to his chest and she undid his shirt and removed it. Her hands glided against his smooth Sun kissed skin.
That night they slept together under the stars on the beach.
And Elizabeth doesn't even remember.

Jack came back to and realized there was a very good chance this child was his. But it could also be Will's and he could be just getting in the way. But he felt something for Elizabeth. Maybe it was just sexual desire. Maybe it wasn't. All he knew is that Jack Sparrow did not fall in love.
Elizabeth was staring at him oddly, and he realized he had been thinking about their night on the island for a while.
" Jack, are you alright?" said Elizabeth touching his face with her hand, " you're not sick?"
Jack laughed nervously and said, " No, no darling. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow, I'm perfect!"
Elizabeth smiled at him and he stood up to help her up.
"Thank you Jack! We must go tell Will I'm alright and that you've arrived!" She gushed at him.
Jack smiled and said, " Of course, love."
Elizabeth took Jack by the hand and led him to the fort.

Far below the depths of the sea, that any man could reach, resided Triton. Triton's treasure seemed only real to those of great stupidity or those brave enough to believe. They would travel to the depths of the ocean and retrieve the conch shell, and trident.
They would blow the conch shell, and point the trident into the water. The trident would light up in the direction of the treasure and take you up to the surface.
No man was ever supposed to steal the treasure of Trident. For it was not gold and silver and those types of riches. It was Trident's personal treasure.
In a silver chest, on a gold silk pillow was a kind of necklace. It was stones that were black and blue and it could be separated into two necklaces, the chains were silver.
These were very important to the God of the sea, Triton. He had received them as a gift, and was to use them when needed. But with them gone, he could not use them.
But he had the blood of the man who took them. The blood was on the trident, and he used it to find him. He would not stop until he had taken the blood of the man who had taken his treasures. He called upon the sea, to cause a storm. And to gather his minions, it was time to call in, to receive the blood of the man who had caused him a great hurt.

The next day Elizabeth, Will and Jack were walking to the port, when Will had to stop into the Blacksmith shop to check on Mr. Brown. Jack decided to take full advantage of the situation.
" Elizabeth." He said turning to her, " I 'ave something for you."
Elizabeth smiled a little, and asked confused, " What? What is it?"
Jack pulled off a necklace from around his neck. It was blue stone and had a silver chain.
" I want you to 'ave this. Actually, it's for your child. So they will always 'ave a memory of Captain Jack Sparrow. I 'ave a matching one." Jack said as he pulled up the matching necklace only with a black stone.
" Why Jack?" She asked him wearily.
" Well, you and Will are friends of mine, and now that you…" He said with difficulty getting the last words out knowing far too well it could be his and Elizabeth's child, " and Will are having a child. I wanted to give something to it." He smiled nervously hoping she wouldn't doubt him.
" Thank you so much Jack." She said smiling at him, " I'll wear it until our child can." She said fastening it around her neck.
His heart skipped a beat when she said "our" but then he knew she meant her and Will. Not her and him. It would never be that way. He would never be able to see his child, nor Elizabeth. But at least the child would have something of his. He had to stop acting like this. This was not Jack Sparrow; this was the way the whelp acted! He was going crazy he thought to himself.
Jack stood there watching Elizabeth, and he realized it. Yes, the only reason he was behaving like this is because of that one night they had together. It was purely sexual, he just wanted to be with her so they could have great pleasurable company between the both of them, and he figured because it could be his child. He may be Jack Sparrow, but if he has a child, it means a lot to him.
Elizabeth began to worry when Will hadn't returned from the Blacksmith's shop.
" Jack, what's taking Will so long you think?" She asked worried.
" Will, Will, Will." Jack mumbled to himself moving around his hands frantically.
" What was that?" Elizabeth inquired.
Jack stopped stared at Elizabeth and responded, " I 'aven't the slightest." And then he smiled at her.
Elizabeth walked down the street with Jack in tow swaggering from side to side. They finally reached the blacksmith's shop, and Elizabeth entered.
Once she stepped inside the shop she regretted it. There were a number of men. One was holding Will still and had a knife to his throat.
" Will!" Elizabeth cried out.
Jack turned back around as to not be seen. He ducked behind the wall and listened in.
" You there!" the man called out. " Stay still or the pretty one gets it!"
" I'll stay still." Said Will to the man holding him.
" I was talkin' to her!" and the rest of the men laughed out loud.
" Please! What do you want?" Elizabeth pleaded to the men.
One of the men took out the golden trident and it began glowing profusely towards to door, where Jack was hiding behind, where Elizabeth was in the crossfire.
" Well, I guess it was a woman who took the treasure!" The man said shocked as the others proceeded towards her.
" What? What treasure? I didn't take anything!" shouted Elizabeth at them.
"The trident senses the blood. It's reactin' to you Missy!" Shouted the man.
The man knocked Will unconscious and Elizabeth screamed. The men picked her up and took them with her. The brought her aboard their ship and sailed away unusually fast. Jack was still hiding behind the door. He knew what this was about. He regretted ever giving Elizabeth that necklace for now they'd think she stole it, and they'll kill her, and her unborn child.
Jack picked up Will and dragged him onto the Black Pearl. He told the crew what they were to do and they set sail for Triton's waters.
