Chapter Four

Sun shined through the bar window, lying gently across Elizabeth's face. Her eyes fluttered open, everything was a blur at first, but then it came into focus. Her cell was empty, no one was there.

A horrible aching pain came into her heart, they had taken them. She couldn't even say good bye. Tears welled up in her eyes, she leaned her head against the stone wall of the cell. Letting the cold stone press against her back.

Elizabeth sat in her corner crying, letting the cool ocean breeze come in the window, causing shivers to run up her arms. She clasped her hands over her shoulders, trying to rid the awful bumps. Tears found their way down her cheeks and soon fell on her white shirt.

Slam! A door swung open, a figure standing in the doorway. It stepped into view; it was Commodore Norrington, followed closely by two guards. That was the last person she wanted to see at the moment, he was probably coming to tell her the horrible news about Jack's death. Elizabeth cringed at the image, the horrible thoughts.

"Ms. Swan, Elizabeth," James spoke, "come with me." One of the guards unlocked the cell door.

Elizabeth stood up, her legs felt weak. She made her way out the door.

The sun shone brightly across the many faces surrounding the scene before them. The image of the crew and Jack standing in a row, with their hands tied behind their backs. Elizabeth was in the crowd, standing by James Norrington, tears still streaming down her cheeks.

Elizabeth wanted to say something, but the words just got caught in her throat. Other times she would have said anything, but now was different.

"Ready Elizabeth?" James asked, and smirk made its way on his face. He was merely getting pleasure from this, and Elizabeth was standing there dreading every second.

Elizabeth just looked at him, with her lips pierced together, her eyes still red with tears. Then Elizabeth looked out back at the horrible scene before her. Jack was in perfect view; he was staring at his feet, Elizabeth wished he would look up at her. Just so she could tell him, she loved him. Elizabeth choked up more tears then ever, she stood there trying to cover it up. But that only made it worse, people turned around to look at her, who would be crying at a pirate hanging? "I'm fine."

Soon enough the heavy man axe, put ropes around the pirate's necks, one by one. Elizabeth felt the weight of the world pressing down on her. The heavy man had his hand on the lever, in one quick motion he could kill them all.

Suddenly in the crowd, a woman screamed then she fell backward onto the dirt. Everyone around her gasped, and made a circle around her instantly.

"Hold it!" The Commodore yelled at the man with an axe. He ran over to the fainted woman. Everyone pooled over there, except one man, who slowly made his way closer to the pirates. He went behind them, then under the stand. Where Elizabeth lost view of him totally, what on earth was this man doing?

In a moment he reappeared on the opposite side of the stand, he had his sword out; he hopped up next to Gibbs, then in one swift moment he sliced the rope that connected his neck to the wooden piece above. He made his way down slicing ropes as he went, he was surprisingly quiet. When he only had four more people left including Jack, the Commodore came out of the crowd, "Turner!" He yelled.

Every guard went into action, Elizabeth took a step closer to Jack, she still had her sword on hand. Elizabeth smiled at herself, while running through the fighting guards.

Elizabeth ran up next to Jack without a problem, she cut his rope and removed it from his neck. "I guess you were right, something was going to happen." She smiled at him.

She handed him her sword, giving him a light nod toward the others that were still tied up. Jack went the other way fighting a guard instead.

Will came out of no where, "Elizabeth," he took a brief pause to push a guard onto the ground, "get everyone one to the dock," he paused again this time to cut the remaining three loose, "there will be a women by the name of Lana waiting there for you." Then in one motion he was gone.

Elizabeth had no other choice, she made a waving motion for the crew to following her, they had no weapons at the moment so they needed to get out. Every filed after Elizabeth.

No one even noticed they were leaving; they were too busy fighting Jack and Will.

They group made their way down the coble stone streets, passing by stores, empty stores. Everyone on this side of England went to watch the pirate hanging. Elizabeth laughed at herself, they sure got a show.

They made a right turn towards the dock, where Elizabeth saw a woman on the dock, just like Will had told her. She was, pretty. Where did Will meet her? She found herself asking questions, and stopped, because they were walking on the creaky dock.

As soon as they came close to Lana, she looked faintly familiar to Elizabeth. Lana asked, "Are you Elizabeth?" She played with a sword she had in her hand, Will had given it to her, just in case.

"Yes, and this is the crew." Elizabeth pointed to the many people following her. Elizabeth never really noticed that she was leading a large group.

"Ello'" The crew greeted in unison, they waved their hands slightly.

"Well we should get ready." Lana suggested, she turned around toward a ship, it read The Storm. Elizabeth wondered how Will got a ship too. Well he is a pirate. She thought, she continued to follow Lana.

As soon everyone got on the ship Lana said, "Will just told me, to tell you, to get the ship ready." She took a breath, and brushed her hair over her shoulder.

Elizabeth couldn't stop herself, she was actually a nosy person at heart, "How did you meet Will?" She walked to Lana's side at the bow of the ship.

Lana looked at her, not at all surprised; everyone's going to be asking questions eventually. "Oh, I was a barmaid at Gunman's Bay, and Will was there and convinced me to go with him to rescue Jack Sparrow and his crew." Lana explained she stared out toward the ocean.

"That's great; we could always use some more women." Elizabeth replied jokingly. They both laughed, Elizabeth wasn't used to being around other women her age, the only women she had connect with was Anamaria. Elizabeth was more used to talking to men; there was an awkward silence between them for a moment. Elizabeth twirled her hair around her finger; she was itching to get out of here, what was taking them?

"I am excited to meet Captain Sparrow," Lana said suddenly, "I've heard so many stories about him." She glanced over at the dock to see if they were coming, but it was empty.

"Oh," Elizabeth replied, "his great." Elizabeth found herself smiling, thinking of her Captain.

Lana smiled as a reply, and then she said, "To tell you the truth, I didn't think this plan was going to work. I had to get out of there fast after I fainted," she took a pause; "these people kept asking me if I was well enough. I just kept thinking about getting down here fast enough to meet you and the crew." She looked at Elizabeth and grinned.

Elizabeth was completely shocked, "So you were the woman that fainted?"

"Yes, just to tell you it wasn't such an easy task." She laughed at herself.

"Well you did a great job."

"Thanks."

Elizabeth opened her mouth to reply, but then she saw in the corner of her eye, two figures running toward the ship. Elizabeth whipped her head around to find Jack and Will running, Jack with his arms flailing about as usual. Elizabeth looked up the hill at the street, where there was a mob chasing them.

Jack and Will leapt onto the ship, "Go!" Will shouted, and then Gibbs turned the wheel, then the ship shifted in the water, slowly making its way out to sea. Will walked over to Lana; he took a breath, "See I told you it would work." He gave Elizabeth a wink.

Elizabeth remembered the time in Port Royal, she smiled at Will. She watched Will put his arm around Lana, she felt her eyes were popping out of her head. How long was she gone? Because it felt like she was gone forever, so many things happened in only one week.

Soon Jack was by her side, Will and Lana had gone to the railing watching the mob standing on the dock.

Elizabeth wrapped her arms around him, forgetting everything that she was thinking about just a second ago. "Finally." Elizabeth said, leaning in to kiss him.

They held each other so close, they didn't care if anybody was watching, they were there in the moment, and they weren't planning letting go any time soon.
