I in no way shape or form own Pirates of the Caribbean, Thor, or GI Joe
Elizabeth gasped for breath, it hadn't been much of a shock when she had discovered she had been pregnant, not after she had spent the entire day with James as she had, but giving birth in the middle of a storm at sea wasn't her idea of fun. Thankfully after nine months she had gotten things well in hand, she sailed her new domains, managing to get the loyalty of the pirates under her command, part of that was because she learned their languages and customs. She had ordered that the proper funeral rites be preformed for Sao Feng, she might not have gotten along with him very well, but she had respected him, not to mention she knew that Jin needed the closure. She trusted that Matthew and Jin could handle the ship during the storm, Matthew had been a good first mate to her and Jin showed a lot of promise as a pirate, Tai Huang helped then with what they didn't know, but there hadn't been a lot he could teach them in the end they found. A lot of things had changed in the last nine months, Willa and Jack had formally tied the knot and were expecting a child of their own any day now, the same for Barbossa and Jaybird, while Bryce and Belle had gotten married.
The East India Trading Company had been severely damaged when the crimes Beckett had committed became public, crimes his superiors known about and gave their blessing to, they had taken a large hit and it would be decades before they recovered from the blow they had been dealt. Then there had been their venture to the Fountain of Youth, from which they had all drunk from, their crews included, they would sail the seas forever and she found she liked the idea of doing something like that. Though they did have a bit of trouble reaching the fountain, something like the Fountain of Youth would have protections after all, but compared to going to Davy Jones Locker, it wasn't that bad, difficult, yes, but bad, no. Only death would deprive her of the title of Pirate King, which was nice, the Brethren were in good hands with her and they all knew it was best this way, she regularly met up with the others, not to mention she had promised her father to visit him at least once a year on the island. He wasn't happy about her sailing the world and being a pirate, but he understood it was her life, after much argument, and she needed to live it how she wished, not to mention as a Pirate Lord and the Pirate King she didn't have much of a choice, besides this was her choice.
"Ahh," she cried in pain as another contraction hit her, "Almost there, just a couple more pushes," the ships doctor told her, he wouldn't admit this, but he was rather nervous, this was his first time delivering a baby. Elizabeth gritted her teeth and pushed, she was rewarded by the sound of a baby wailing at the top of his lungs, "A son captain," the doctor told her, wrapping the baby in a cloth, Elizabeth sighed in relief, but then yelled in pain, "Somethings wrong," she cried, "I'm still having contractions." "Your having twins captain," the doctor yelped in shock, quickly placing the baby in the cradle, turning his attention back to his captain, this was completely unexpected, thankfully he could already see the second baby's head. "One more good push," he told her, "I can see the head," Elizabeth gritted her teeth and pushed, a moment later the cry of a second baby filled the air, "A daughter captain," the doctor told her, wrapping the child in a spare blanket, he placed her into the cradle with her brother, though it was a bit of a tight fit. He turned his attention to Elizabeth, quickly handling the afterbirth, but Elizabeth was more concerned about her children, she had never expected to have twins, within moment she had forced herself out of the bed and limped over to the cradle to see her children for herself, she smiled softly down at them, stroking their cheeks tenderly. "What will you name them," the doctor asked, Elizabeth frowned, wanting to give them names that would honor both her and James, but also honor Chinese culture, which would be a large part of their lives as they grew up, she smiled as she realized what the perfect comprise would be.
Then the door was thrown open as Jin and Matthew burst into the room, once they were below deck they had heard the sound of babies crying and wanted to see for themselves if it was twins like their ears were telling them. "Twins," Matthew said in shock as Elizabeth nodded, Jin walked over and peered at his siblings, "What are there names," he asked, Elizabeth smiled as she answered, "This is Malcolm Sheng Norrington," she touched her son, before touching her daughter, "And this is Mulan Beth Norrington." "Triumph and victory," Matthew murmured in approval, translating the meaning of their Chinese names, "And magnolia blossom, they are good strong names," Jin smiled down at the babies, both who sported blond hair and sea-green eyes. The doctor slipped away to give the news to the rest of the crew, "I'll send word to the others with the news," Matthew said, going to a desk and pulling out a sheet of paper, quickly writing down the news. He finished quickly, then made five copies, removing a bottle from a desk drawer and slipping one of the rolled up letters into the bottle, before saying who he wanted to send it to, it was something that Willa and Belle had devised to keep in close contact with everyone.
"Jack I am going to kill you," Willa yelled, they were in the middle of a damn hurricane and the baby had chosen this, of all times, to come into the world, Jack was needed on deck, but if nothing else, the yelling was therapeutic for her. "Ahem," the doctor coughed, "Push," Willa groaned and pushed as the next contraction hit her, she gasped for breath when it ended, both she and the doctor looked up surprised when someone hurried into the room, it was Jack. "I thought you were needed on deck," Willa said surprised, "Aye, but between your father, Gibbs, and Anamaria, they can handle it," Jack told her, walking over to her side, "How are you," "I have been better," Willa said dryly, before whining slightly and grabbing his hand as another contraction hit her. Jack winced in pain, but didn't say anything, he knew nothing good would happen if he said she was crushing his hand, "Easy now," he whispered to her, privately delighted that his child would be born amidst a storm at sea like he and Jaybird had been. Willa grimaced and pushed with the next contraction, her teeth grinding together in an effort to keep from screaming, but was rewarded by a baby's cry, "A girl," the doctor smiled, handing the baby to Jack. "Oh my," he murmured shocked, realizing something very important, "You're having twins Willa," "Wh-aah," Willa screamed as she had another contraction, but a moment later the doctor was holding her second child, "Another girl," he said, handing the baby to Willa, since Jack had his hands full with the other baby.
"What will we name them," Willa asked, "How about we name this one Victoria," Jack suggested looking the baby, who had his mother's red hair, but Willa's pale skin and silver-gray eyes, "I think she's going to be a Storm Eyed One just like you." "She will be," Willa sighed when she saw her eyes, "What about Meredith for this little one," she suggest, the baby had brown-black hair and stunning green eyes that came from her grandmother, "Sounds good," Jack smiled, "We can call them Tora and Merry for short," that made Willa chuckle. They both looked at the desk in their cabin surprised when they heard a horn coming from one of the drawers, Jack handed Tore to Willa and went over and opened the drawer removing a bottle with a letter in it. "Who is it from," Willa asked, adjusting to holding two babies at once, "Its from Matthew," Jack answered reading the letter, "Elizabeth just had her babies as well, it was twins as well, a boy she named Malcolm Sheng and a girl she named Mulan Beth." "That is a little odd, us having our babies on the same night," Willa couldn't help saying, Jack nodded in agreement and went hunting for some paper, he quickly wrote out letters to everyone and sent them off, "At least they'll have playmates there age though."
"Easy Jaybird," Barbossa told his wife, who had gone into labor during the middle of a storm, "You're doing great," he was completely out of his dept there and that scared the shit out of him, he winced as she squeezed his hand, he thought she broke something. He looked up when he heard a horn sound coming from his desk, "I'll wait until we're done here," he muttered, Jaybird gave a scream which shook him more than he would admit, "Its a boy," the doctor said, then yelped, "Two boys," he corrected himself, somehow managing to juggle both boys, who had been born right on the heels of each other. "Lookie here Jaybird," Barbossa smiled, "Two boys in one go," Jaybird held her sons and glared at Barbossa for that comment, "What will we name them," she asked instead, they were almost identical to each other, with dark auburn hair and brown eyes. "How about Carlos and Andros," Barbossa suggested, his mother had been a Spaniard after all, for all that his father had been an Englishman, in fact his father hadn't been much of a father to begin with, so he knew what not to do when raising children at least. Jaybird frowned as she mulled it over, then she smiled and nodded, "It feels right naming them that," she agreed, "Now go see who wrote to us," Barbossa shook his head and grumbled as he went over to the desk and pulled the message bottle from its drawer.
"Well I'll be a monkey's uncle," he laughed, "Seems that both Elizabeth and Willa went into labor tonight, each of them had a set of twins, Willa had two girls they're naming Victoria and Meredith, while Elizabeth had a boy and girl she named Malcolm and Mulan." "Odd that," Jaybird couldn't help commenting, "Us having our children at the same time, and all of us having twins at that," Barbossa shrugged, but he had to admit that his wife was right, it was rather odd. Barbossa settled down to write out letters of his own to send to everyone, with the news of his sons, and to assure everyone that there hadn't been any trouble with the delivery, which had been a large fear for all of the woman in the family. Plus if he didn't send word Ariel and Teague might kill him, immortal or no, for not telling them about their grandchildren the first moment he got, either way, he was not going to get on their bad sides. He knew they would all be making port at Shipwreck Cove for a visit so they could meet their grandchildren, Elizabeth would be stopping by the island to visit her father and introduced him to his grandchildren as well.
