Hello my fellow readers! Its me again, and back with a new story. I hope you'll enjoy this one as you did with the first one, I apologise now that it might get dark sometimes, maybe upsetting thoughts, so I thought I warn you before you read. If anyone has any questions or anything please do not hesitate to ask, or review. I'll let you read the first chapter now, so I'll see you on the other side my fellow geeks.

The light of the sun was starting to break free from the trees, and reached the tops of the forest, shining weakly down on Danielle Turner as she sat on her log. Nothing stirred. No wind blew around her. All was quiet as it always has been. For the first time since she could remember Danielle moved her head and stared up at the sun, her eyes betraying what she had taught herself to do for many years, locking up her feelings. They showed her what she was really feeling. She shook her head and lowered her head again. It seemed she had been there for a few hours. She couldn't sleep, her mind was keeping her awake, if anyone noticed she could put it down as excitement for the wedding but that weren't the reason. Of course she was excited for the wedding, it was her cousin William Turner's wedding, he was actually marrying her best friend Elizabeth Swann, something she had been waiting for years for. Years!

It was just ...well she hadn't been herself recently. Sometimes she felt like crying for no apparent reason, went to bed early on some days, ran away to her place in the woods. Slowly it seemed, it had built up, growing to the point where Danielle couldn't tell the change in her, couldn't feel anything different; all the feelings were the same. Numb. When with friends, she forced a smile but deep inside she was breaking. What was wrong with me? The question she always asked herself, inside her mind. Nothing was going right for her...

She looked down at her arms, and pulled her long sleeves down and held them over her wrists, without him she was nothing. Without him she was in darkness. Without him she was alone. Without him she felt insecure. Without him she was this monster. She kept telling herself those things every day, she missed Ragetti so much. It felt like time was going slow, the world turning slow, days were like months, months were like years and years like decades. Was she being selfish for thinking about him? To believe he was alive and they'll soon be together again...

Everyone has got what they want. They have love. They have freedom. What about me? Everyone and everything has forgotten me, maybe I'm just a ghost to them. I used to be somebody. I used to know what life was, used to know what to do with time and how to use it. When did everything change? Danielle thought to herself. She knew the answer, but she couldn't bring herself to think of the monster at the moment, it would only sink her into more darkness, but the thought had always been at bay- just slowly peeking through- stepping over her line.

"Danni?" She heard someone call her.

She slowly raised her head and turned it to see behind her. A faint smile appeared on her face as her chocolate brown eyes met Will's. He sat next to her and they both stared out in space in silence. However after a moment or two Danielle decided to break it by asking: "Nervous?"

"Yes, but I am getting married to the most beautiful woman and friend." He replied softly. Danielle smiled hearing the love in his words for Lizzie. "Why you up early?"

"I...couldn't sleep. Excited."

"Danni, you know we are family. You can tell me anything." Will said knowing she was lying. "Family sticks together remember?"

"It's just...2Danielle said but stopped. She pulled her sleeves down even more, she licked her lips nervously. She cringed as Will gently placed his hands on her arm.

"You are not alone Danni. I promise. We all have to find our paths, to find what our purpose is." Will said. As Danielle slowly leaned her head against his shoulder, he wrapped an arm around her shoulder and held her tightly. "Danielle...about Ragetti... I'm truly sorry."

"It's not your fault. It weren't Norrington's or the Guv's either. They were doing their job and Ragetti was in the wrong...it's just he weren't really like that. Before the curse...before he left me he was kind, caring and thoughtful, he had no choice but kidnap Lizzie, and do the other things." Danielle said she slowly raised her head and wiped her tears on her sleeves. "I understand that now, but it is too late. I am here, and he is...well I don't know where."

"I once read from a book: "the couples that are meant to be are the ones who go through everything that is designed to tear them apart and come out even stronger than they were before. They don't give up on each other on their relationship when they go through hard times; even it is the easy thing to do." You and Ragetti are meant to be Danni, I have faith in you both and I know you'll see him again." He raised his hand and brushed the last tears away from her face with his thumb. He smiled as he stared down at her; it truly broke his heart when he saw his own cousin down/upset. They were the only family left; they promised themselves they would defend the other until the very end, they couldn't lose each other; that weren't an option. Standing up Will held his hand out for Danielle take. Smiling when she took it, he pulled her up gently and started to walk away from Danielle's place while holding hands.

"Will?" Danielle asked breaking the silence. "I just want to wish you luck on the behalf of the family. Strange two Turners left- two strong Turners left. You are doing the right thing, and I'm sure Jack would wish you luck too, after how much the pair of you has grown." Danielle said. She laughed as she could remember last time Will and Jack was together, back when they were looking for Elizabeth and was heading for the cave. Jack really knew how to wind people up, she thought to herself.

Danielle stood at the small chapel that stood on the cliff of Port Royal. She was under the cover, by the doors, her eyes set outside, on the streets of the island, she was waiting for William, to be coming, but he was meant to come few minutes ago! She knew he was nervous but he weren't the type to runaway, to run away from his love. People act differently than they say, Dan thought, you can never know a person. She let out a sigh, hoping her cousin will come, to be a better person than her and the rest of the family had been. As she thought of herself, she lowered her gaze and stared at her left hand at the plain gold band that wrapped around her left ring finger. It was from Ragetti, the last time they saw each other, before he was sent away to jail, to be hanged. She pleaded for his freedom but he was a pirate and against the law. She had heard nothing from him ever since, but she had a little feeling deep down that he was still alive, and that she'd soon go after him.

The sound of the rain pouring down made her come back to the present day. She lifted her gaze, and there was still no sign of her cousin. She turned around and walked down the stairs and to Elizabeth, who was kneeling at the end of the aisle, dressed in her once dry and lovely wedding dress but it was damp and clung onto her, as of her hair it stuck on her face. She had not moved a muscle since Danielle checked on her. She tried to persuade her to come under the cover, not wanting to catch a cold, but she said nothing, and stayed still as a statue. Dan stopped walking, and stood behind her friend, staring at with a worried expression. She didn't understand why her cousin was late; it was unlike him to do such things. She was about to say something to Elizabeth but something caught her gaze. Down below the cliff, on the beach, many rowing boats were parked near the beach, and many men stood in rows, taking orders by one man on a horse. Her eyes suddenly caught a flag with the symbol and letter of East India Trading Company.

"Why are they here?" She asked out loud. "Today of all days, though I am not a wedding person but...I guess they have no honour."

"Danni run." Elizabeth ordered.

"What about you?" Dan asked worryingly.

"I be fine, you run and hide if possible." She replied, while staring at Dan's eyes, to show she was holding back her tears, but she was trying to keep hold of herself; to keep control of the situation.

Dan nodded, and slowly walked backwards. She turned around and ran out the chapel and into the streets of the island. She stopped, turning her head left and right, not sure which way to go, the intruders could come anyway, and she didn't want to run into them. William! She must warn him, before anything could happen. She ran to the Blacksmiths, but skidded to a stop, and backed into an alleyway, as she watched a small group of marine's storm into the building. She was too late. She watched as they walked her cousin out and head up to the chapel. She followed them, but kept a far distance between, not wanting to get caught. She knew what Elizabeth said but she needed to know why the Company was here, and interrupting the wedding.

She stood outside the chapel, her back rested on the wall, and she could hear talk. She couldn't really hear word to word, but she got some of it. She defiantly heard the Governor ordering the man in charge to order his men to stand down and he had no right to arrest her cousin, but she knew there was no point the man in charge wouldn't listen and was stubborn. She heard things about a warrant, and there was one for her, something to do with Captain Jack Sparrow.

Hearing movement, she walked to the edge of the wall of where she stood, and popped her head out of her hiding place for a moment, watching William and Elizabeth get taken away, she guessed to the jails. She was about to walk out, until she heard the cold voice of Beckett.

"Miss Turner is on this island. She wouldn't miss her only living relative's wedding. Find her, do what you have to do, Ian. She cannot hide forever."

Danielle stared in front of her with fear in her eyes. Her enemies were back in her life, and now they had her cousin and her friend locked up. She couldn't free them, not yet; she needed a plan for that. Do what Lizzie told you to do, she told herself, run!

She ran out her hiding place, and cursed when she heard Beckett order his men to catch her. She had no chance of outrunning them, not in a dress or heels. She stopped quickly and took of her heels and threw them on the floor, and left them as she carried on running. It felt she had been running for hours, but in reality it was only minutes! She couldn't run any more, and she knew if she ran forever, she couldn't escape as she guessed Beckett would order his men to surround the island and keep a look out. She quickly hid in an alleyway; she needed time to get her breath back and to think of plan. She hid in the shadows, and watched the small group of men who were chasing her ran pass her. She rested her head on the wall behind her, her breath was coming back.

She stepped back out; she needed a place to hide, so she could think of a plan. However a sound of a gun being cocked made her stop. She sensed someone standing behind her, and could sense the person's anger.

"Old habits are really hard to break aren't they Ian?" She asked while turning around and faced one of her enemies. "Do we need to point guns everywhere? Aren't we all adults here? Can't we simply talk?"

He didn't answer. Instead he lowered his gun and grabbed her by her arm; harshly.

"I guess not." She said through clenched teeth.

"You made my life hell."

"You killed innocent people, killed my father and pinned it on Sparrow; you needed to pay the price."
