CHAPTER 2

Will woke with a start. He could of sworn that there was something in there, trying to get him. It had a long tentacle. It reminded him of- No, no, it couldn't be. He turned and saw that Elizabeth was sleeping peacefully. Right now, he needed to hold her. Needed to know that danger was behind them for good. He reached out and pulled her towards him. She slowly opened her eyes.

"What's wrong, Will?"

"Nothing, my love. I just wanted to hold you. Its been so long."

Smiling, Elizabeth kissed him gently on the lips. She missed this. Missed him. If it hadn't been for Henry, she didn't know how she would have been able to last.

The large clock in the bedroom chimed. It was one in the morning.

"It's late," Will said, quietly. "I'm sorry I woke you."

"Don't be sorry. We haven't seen each other for so long. I missed you so much, Will. You know, you're too good for me."

At this, Will laughed.

"I think you have it backwards, Elizabeth. You're the one who's too good for me."

"I left someone to die, Will."

Will sighed, sitting up.

"Elizabeth, that was years ago. Jack is alive and well. We need to move past that."

"I also told you that you couldn't trust me."

Will gently stroked Elizabeth's hair. He knew that she felt guilty for her past actions. He did, too, but that was in the past, and all he wanted was to move forward.

"Elizabeth, please stop feeling guilty about past deeds. We've all done things we're not proud of, but that is over now. We're together again. This time for good, thanks to our heroic son."

Elizabeth smiled, stroking Will's cheek.

"Like father, like son."

"Exactly."

They stayed up for a few more minutes, just holding each other, not bothering to say anything else. They didn't need to say anything. All they needed at this moment was to be with each other and to hold one another.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Caribbean, Captain Jack Sparrow was sailing his ship, The Black Pearl, which was under his command once again. This was all he wanted. His ship, the sea, and a bottle of rum. Jack didn't really know where his next adventure was going to take him, but hopefully, it was a good one!

Jack felt that after all the hell he'd been through these past few years, he needed a break. No, not from adventure, for that was in his blood. Just take a couple of days to stop and see someone. He knew just who he wanted to see. His father, Captain Teague. The last time he saw Teague, Teague was in a tavern in London warning Jack about the dangers of the Fountain of Youth.

Right now, Captain Teague was back at Shipwreck Cove, and Jack decided to stop there and pay him a visit. He left Murtogg and Mullroy in charge of minding the ship. Gibbs, Marty, and the rest of the crew decided to venture into town and to pick up any supplies they might need.

The last time Jack had been in Shipwreck Cove was when all the pirates gathered together to form a plan in order to destroy Cutler Beckett. That was years ago!

Jack knocked on the door to one of the houses.

"Come!" a voice inside called.

Jack walked into the dimly lit house, to find his father, as well as Keeper of the Code, Captain Teague, sitting in a chair, by the fireplace, playing his guitar.

"Hullo, Jackie," Teague said with a smile.

Jack smiled back. "Hullo, Dad."

"What brings you here?"

"Can't a man come and visit his dear ol' da?"

Teague rolled his eyes, contiuing to play his guitar. He knew Jack like the back of his hand.

"The only time you come jus' to visit, it's either Christmas, my birthday, or you need information."

Jack sat down across from Teague.

"All right, then, I will get right to the point. You remember that beautiful Spanish lass I left years ago? Her father was the late Blackbeard."

"Angelica? No. Last, I heard she was picked up by a ship and vowed to get revenge against that evil man who left her there."

"Uh-huh. Well, for the past few weeks, I've been... thinking about her... and... w-w-wondering..."

"Stop stuttering, boy! I already know you love her!"

"I most certainly do not," Jack said, in an offended voice.

"Jackie, there are only two women I know of that you have had stirrings for. Angelica Teach, and Elizabeth Turner. Elizabeth loves another, but deep down, you've always loved Angelica more, and you want her back."

"All right, fine, I admit it. I want Angelica back. Happy?"

Teague shook his head.

"I highly doubt you're going to get her back, what with killing her da' and leaving her to rot on a deserted island."

"All right, first of all, I killed her da' because he was an evil man who put himself before her, and would have gladly let his only child die just to save his own skin. Secondly, I left Angelica on the island for two reasons. She wanted to kill me, and I knew that a ship would come by and get her."

"Be that as it may, Jackie, if you want her back, it's not going to be easy."

"Do you know where she is?"

"I really don't. Like, I said, all I heard was that a ship picked her up. She had some weird doll with her I hear. Looked like you."

At this, Jack gulped. Uh-oh. Not good! The voodoo doll. That was most definitely not good. But it was years ago, right? Jack never felt any physical pain or anything, so Angelica obviously wasn't doing anything to it. Maybe she was no longer angry with him. But, didn't Teague say she wanted revenge? Oh, this was all so confusing.

"Remember, Jackie, I lost yer mum during a battle. If you get Angelica back, you need to watch your back as well as hers."

"Trust me, Da, Angelica is a hell of a fighter. I know."

They continued to talk for a few more minutes. Once they were done, Jack got up to leave and said he would be back to visit soon.

"Oh! There is one more thing you should know, Jackie. I should of told you the second I saw you. He's back."

"Who's back?"

"Davy Jones."
