Sequel to Forgetting The Past, I present to you Fire And Forget Me Not, my third installment of PotC fanfic. Same characters, James, Iz, Edward, Lucy, Beckett, Violet, Rosie. Going into AWE, during and after. 4 years have passed since James returned, (yes, my fics span 10 years in 3 movies) . Lol! Read and review please guys, thanks! There is a MAJOR SPOILER at the start even though it's a part of the beginning. But even if you don't read it you'll still get the story. If you don't wanna read it, just skip the italics. Enjoy!

James turned to watch Edward and Lucy crawl across the tow ropes towards The Empress. "Daddy" Lucy cried, desperatley, . James took a deep breath and shouted above the wind "Edward", his son turned his head to look at his father, the father he had known for only four years of his life, "I'm so proud of you, never forget that" James smiled "And also, tell your mother, tell her I love her, for eternity" he looked down and whispered "I'm so sorry", he raised his pistol and pulled the trigger, breaking the seams of the tow ropes from the Dutchman's stern and causing Elizabeth, Edward and Lucy to fall into the water below. He watched as Lucy and Edward looked up at him, whilst Elizabeth was atttempting to pull her niece and nephew away and onto the ship behind them. James turned round, and at the same time Bootsrap Bill lunged forward, plunging his sword into James' body.

"NO!!!!" Lucy screamed, tears beginning to stream from her eyes as she saw her father sink to his knees.

Edward went rigid in the water "No..." he whispered. He watched as Jones approached his dieing father and bent his face low to James' and whispered something inaudible to young Edward's ears, but James' reaction was to force his sword into Jones' shoulder with what little strength he had left.

Jones pulled the sword out with a tentacle and gave it the once over. Before walking off, with his crew following.

Lucy stared up at her now dead father, as if wanting him to get up, "Daddy..." she trailed off.

Elizabeth pulled the children close to her "Come on, you two, let's get onboard"

Edward reluctantly let his aunt pull him toward The Empress, but still not taking his eyes off of his motionless father. His Hero. His Admiral.

Edward sat in the Captain's Quartersof The Empress, he glanced over at Lucy, his sister had been inconsolable after witnessing her father's murder. It hurt him to see her so scarred. She sat in the corner of the cabin, her arms wrapped around herself, weeping silently into her dress.

Edward looked at the piece of paper and the inkwell in front of him, he was planning to write to his mother, Isabelle, but didn't know how to tell her that their beloved Admiral was dead.

He sighed deeply, before picking up his quill, placing it in the inkwell and beginning to write the heartbreaking letter to his mother.

"Words can't describe this" he muttered "Word's can't take this pain away"

Then,Edward quietly made a vow, swearing to avenge his father "I'm going to stay, I'm not going home, I'm going to fight, I'm going to kill Jones in memory of my father, of Admiral James Norrington"
