Friday morning the Norrigton's descended from the room at the local hotel and headed towards the restaurant that the hotel offered for their breakfast. Elizabeth would accompany her husband on his business errands and he would cater to her wishes of purchasing some new dresses. As they finished their meal, they walked to the first errand meeting with the lawyer to ensure that the sales yielded the best results for both him and the buyer. Once matters were settled with the lawyer, they went to the bank to ensure that the money would be ready for their departure on Monday.
Upon entering the first store, Norrington and Elizabeth were shocked at the hustle and bustle from the employees. "Now make sure that the stitching is done correctly and that you use cotton pink not blush pink for the dressing and trimmings." The store attendant turned his attention to the new arrivals. "Welcome to my store I do apologize but we are closed the day. We have a rush order and all my employees are needed for the task." "Surely you could spare a girl for measurements and cloth selection." The attendant looked towards the young lady that had spoken, "I am terribly sorry but I can not. The Turner's new child arrived last night and Mrs. Turner had twins, a boy and a girl. She had only bought items for one child and is in desperate need for seconds on everything for the little girl." Elizabeth was insulted and it clearly showed in her face, "I don't see how one child is so significant that you can't spare one girl." The shopkeeper was shocked and dismayed at these woman's words, apparently, she did not know the Turners or their money. "Please do try to understand they are the last of the Robillards and as such they command not only respect but a great wealth. They never spare any expense to ensure only the best. They have been of this shop for four generations and no one is higher on my list of priorities but them. So if you would kindly leave I would greatly appreciate it." The shop nodded to one of the employees standing by the door and he opened the door so that the new arrivals could leave. Once they left, he locked the door and placed a closed sign on it so no one would disturb them. He only had a couple more hours to go before Mr. Turner had James and Mammie return to pick up the first wave of the baby's new wardrobe and furniture.
Therefore, the day dragged on for the Norrigton's. Everyplace they went, the shoe store, the hat maker, the dressmaker, the jewelry store the talk was the new Turner arrival. The twins but especially the baby girl was quite the talk of the town. People speculated if she would have her mother's jade eyes or her fathers warm brown; her mother's fiery temper or her father's calm demeanor. Either way gifts kept pouring out from the shops to the Turner home to congratulate them on their new arrival. Since the Turner's owned the blacksmith shop and the lumber mill the employees were all given the day off with full day's pay. Yes it seemed wherever the Norrigton's turned the Turner's were on everybody's lips.
They arrived back at their hotel and had food delivered to their quarters. They had had enough of Charleston and the Turner's and wanted to spend the rest of the weekend with some peace and quite.
Monday did not come as soon as the Norrington's had hoped but come it did. Their luggage had already been sent to the waiting vessel and the Norrigton's were finishing their morning meal. Norrington called for the waiter to bring him the check so that he could clear both his hotel and restaurant bill and was notified that there was no need. Elizabeth and Norrington went to the lobby to speak with the attendant and ask about this, "Ooh Commodore Norrington. Mr. Turner sent a messenger and he had your bill cleared. He did ask that before you left you did come to his house once more." Norrington looked at Elizabeth and took her by the arm and into the waiting carriage. What game was Turner playing, he would soon find out.
Will walked into the parlor with his daughter in his arms. Scarlett was behind him holding her son and they took seats directly in front of the Norrington's. "What did you want to see us about?" "Commodore Norrington when you leave there is a case that I wish for you to take back with you. There are small artifacts to show my affection for the Governor, would you please make sure he gets it." Norrington nodded and stood to leave Elizabeth was close to the parlor door when she turned to look at Scarlett and Will, "What are their names?" Scarlett looked at her son, "His name is William Turner III and she is Alexandra Rose Turner." "I am sorry Will I wish …" Elizabeth was stopped when Will looked up at her, "It doesn't hurt anymore Elizabeth. The choices you made led me here and for that I thank you." Elizabeth was going to say more but Norrington took her by the arm before she made a bigger scene and a bigger fool out of him.
Upon their arrival at the ship, Norrington looked Elizabeth in the bedroom and he sat in the sitting room adjacent to it and opened the Governor's gift. Inside he found unsealed letters in which he thanked the governor for his new life. He found a gold pocket watch, a picture of the Turner family with the new additions and a new sword. On the hilt was gold with a couple of jewels embedded in them. Turner had outdone himself with this sword. His craftsmanship had only increased in his absence and the sword proved his new wealth. On the sword itself with elegant script was written the Governor's name, the date the sword was given and Turner's initials. Norrington had thought himself once the victor for having Elizabeth's hand in marriage but realized that his petty jealousy had only brought him in second place. For as much as he may have mocked the lowly blacksmith, Will Turner had come out in first place. Sparrow was gone never to bother anyone again, Elizabeth had nothing left from her adventures except her memories, and they were now more bittersweet with the realization that she was no longer remembered. It was a quite journey home.
Upon their arrival, the governor was waiting for them at the dock. It was nearing sunset and he had made arrangements in advance so that Elizabeth and Norrington would arrive comfortably at his home. "Commodore how as Charleston." Norrington still respected the naïve person that was his father-in-law and answered politely to his inquest, "It was pleasant. Mr. Turner sends his regards and a gift." Norrington waved to the crew member that carried his gift and handed it to the governor. The governor gave it to his assistant and instructed him to place it in his study at his home where he could read it at his leisure.
After everyone was settled back at the estate, the governor walked into his study and opened the box. He saw the letters and gifts and the sword last since it was wrapped in the finest cloth his fingers had touched. He read the letters first and decided to pen a reply. He was happy that Will had found some happiness. He had wished that his daughter too would be happy but she had been more than any man could handle and it still took both him and Norrington to keep her in line. If she had not returned life would have been very different for everyone but she only did it when Sparrow had reminded her that his life was not hers. Therefore, she sat in her room looking out her window towards the ocean and drowning in her memory's.
