Okay so I stuck to my promise. Here you go enjoy….

By day break Halo was up and about getting ready to get her dress sized to her properly. With her wedding just days away Halo's hope had finally gone; she knew that she was destined to marry a man that was a Prince. She couldn't complain much since she could be marrying a man that was twice her age where as the Prince was only two years older then she was. It was a comforting note that she would be well taken care of but her heart longed for the sea. Soon she would set sail for Spain after they were to marry in Paris at Notre Dame. Jack was getting eager to see Halo but he knew that wedding was creeping closer. He wasn't going to go against Morgan's wishes to stay patient and wait for the opportune moment. He was a man who lived for the opportune moment but going against Morgan's orders was considered treason. You learned quickly to listen to Morgan or it was straight to the bottom of the sea. The market was busy with folk negotiating for items needed here and there as Chester made his way following a close distance behind Halo. When the guards separated from her he rounded a corner and dragged her back from behind.

Halo slapped Chester when she turned around. "My god Chester you about gave me a fright…"she whispered quietly as she caught her breath. "Sorry M'lady we're all here with the help from a surprising source which you will meet him later. You need to be patient a much as possible. Jack is here but I was afraid if he came with me he would attempt the rescue now instead of listening to orders." He replied as Halo was getting anxious knowing Jack was so close but yet so far away bothered her. She pulled a letter from her pouch addressed to Jack. "Please give him this letter for me and I am leaving for Paris tonight my wedding is happening tomorrow evening. We came for my dress my fiancée." She spat the words out in disgust. "He wants to get back to Spain as soon as he can, his father is dying." She sighed as the guards were now calling for her. "See you Chester." She handed the letter to him and left. Chester looked at letter and ran back towards the ships to warn Morgan of the new plan. Jack saw Chester rushing back as he was on the deck of his ship and he ran off when he approached Morgan.

"We have to move fast they're taking her to get married to the Prince tomorrow." He said as Jack went pale. "They're what?! That's impossible the wedding isn't suppose to happen till next week." Jack stormed off as he went get his sword. He wasn't going to wait anymore he was going to stop the wedding even if it meant dying in the process. Chester handed the letter addressed to Jack to Morgan as Morgan went to talk some sense into Jack. Suicide was not an option for any of the men that had come into his command. He knocked on the door and walked into see Jack loading his pistol. "Jack, Halo sent a letter for you." He set it on the desk. "Think about it before you go we set sail for Le Havre tonight; know we will make it in time to stop the wedding. I promise you that I don't need any men getting killed and especially the one my daughter seems to like. So I leave you now we set sail in an hour, we're rounding up the crews now." Morgan said before leaving Jack staring at the letter. He opened it as he read its contents.

"Jack,

I am writing this letter as I am to be married to a Prince but I know my heart longs for the sea. I long for your company and to be at your side like that night on the Black Pearl under the stars. You have done so much for me and I wish I could say thank you properly, I know Chester may despise you but you have your moments of charm. I hope before I am married I can see you again and the sea one last time. To taste freedom one last time before I am hidden away in a castle somewhere in Spain against my will. Please take care of yourself and don't do anything stupid.

Yours

Halo

Jack sat back in his chair as within the hour he decided to set sail with Morgan. He ordered his crew to prepare to set sail as Morgan smiled to see Jack coming back to his senses. "I suggest we follow Jack seeing as he knows where she is." Morgan said to Chester as they prepared the Lady Lagoon to set sail. "How does he know?" he asked as Morgan shook his head. "Haven't you heard the stories about Jack Sparrow, he has a compass that will lead him to her. It takes him to what he desires most at least I think that's what it says according legend. But that's just an old wise tale, gossip as it were but we'll follow him to see if the legend is true to its word." Morgan said as he headed back to the Athena barking orders as he walked onto the deck. Within the hour they set sail out of the Port as Jack was determined to find Halo.

Halo was packing for the night's ride ahead she was to be married in the early spring afternoon. The Duke forced Halo into the carriage as she was causing a scene because she really didn't want to go. "Your husband awaits my sweet, so be good and get in now." He said shoving her into the carriage as he followed in after. The carriage took off towards Paris without another hitch.

Jack barked orders as they set sail heading towards Port. Jack was hoping they would arrive before the wedding would start. They would sail towards La Havre then they would horseback ride into Paris. Morgan had arranged horses to be waiting for them when they arrived; being a legend of the seas he had his contacts where he needed them. While Captains slept well only one stood watching for the horizon Jack was showing no signs of rest until he knew Halo was safe. Gibbs came up to the deck to convince Jack to rest. "Captain don't you think you may need some rest for the day ahead?" he asked as Jack looked at him. "Mr. Gibbs I will take leave when I feel it is necessary to excuse myself in which you will be the first to know savvy…" Jack said sternly. Gibbs backed off watching his Captain stay diligent he came back a few hours later finding Jack asleep at the helm. Gibbs knelt down waking Jack up.

"Huh? What?!" he asked as Gibbs handed him a bottle of Rum. "Captain I'm taking over for now go rest before we dock." Gibbs muttered as Jack listened retreating to the Captain's quarters. He could barely sleep but after drinking a whole bottle of Rum it knocked him right out. By morning they were docking and Gibbs woke Jack up to head out with Morgan to Paris. Jack stumbled out of the Captain's quarters as Morgan was mounting a horse as Chester followed him. "Aye, you coming Jack or am I going to drag you to Paris?" Morgan asked as Jack stumbled down the dock towards him. The crew followed the three to Paris as the sun peeked over the horizon.

Halo woke up in the Palace to her lady in waiting calling her from her bed. The Duke came in once she slipped on a robe. "My darling today is the day you are to be married and I couldn't be happier my sweet daughter. I am glad you came to your senses next time I see you I will be walking you down the isle as a bride." He kissed her on the forehead before leaving. She turned to her maid "He's not my father." She whispered as they started helping her get ready for her wedding. She stepped into a beautiful ivory white dress that had beautiful décor on the bodice. It flowed down like a ball gown with a cathedral train in the back. They pulled her long hair back in a braided bun after putting the veil on Halo looked at herself in the mirror. She began to cry and tremble. "What's wrong M'lady?" her maid asked as Halo glanced at her wiping the tears away. "I don't want to marry him but it's too late. I'm in love with a man that probly won't get here on time to stop it all. When he does he'll surely be killed I don't want him to be beheaded." Halo explained as she tried to catch her breath.

"M'lady if I may be so bold to say if it is indeed true love and his feelings are the same then he'll find a way to get you out of here. Your secret is safe with me, we have to get going the church now." She said escorting Halo out of the room where the Duke greeted her. Halo quickly hid the tears from sight as best she could as he walked her out to the carriage that would take them to the church. Jack was riding into Paris panicked that he wasn't going to get to Notre Dame on time. He had every to be because the wedding was starting and Halo was still in tears as she started to walk down the isle by the Duke. She wanted to run but she couldn't so her hope was all on Jack. She arrived at the end of the isle facing the Prince as the bishop spoke as he started to recite the vows.

Jack was on his way with Morgan when they got to the edge of Notre Dame they jumped off the horses immediately drawing their swords. The guards attacked him as Morgan backed into Jack. "Get to her before her fate is sealed me and the men have this under control." He said as he cleared a path to the door for Jack. Irony was the fact Jack busted in through the doors just as the bishop said "Speak now or forever hold your peace." Jack had the whole Church staring at him. He tilted his head to the side putting his sword away. "Pardon the intrusion but I do object. Don't take it personally I love weddings just not this one because you see the lady has to come with me." Jack said as he looked around the church.

Halo stood frozen as she looked at Jack. "Jack you came…" she smiled. "Of course I came love you've grown on me as it were. Now come on we don't have much time." He motioned her to him. Halo looked at the Prince. "Sorry…but I have to go." She said as the Duke stood with the King. "Now hold it here you think I'll just let you walk out of here?" the Duke said as Morgan walked in. "Yes you will…because you will arrest that Duke for kidnapping my daughter. The King of England ordered it and I have the papers to prove it. So she will walk out now…and I will deal with these gentlemen as necessary." Morgan said as Halo walked over to Jack and past Morgan in somewhat of a daze. "Chester take her back and get out to sea as quick as you can. I'll follow you soon. Halo I know you have a lot of questions I will answer them later." He said as Jack and Chester escorted her out of the church. Jack picked her up bridal style carrying her of towards the horses. He pulled her up on the horse and took off with Chester. Halo clung to Jack as she pulled off her veil throwing it to the wind. "You have no idea how happy I am to see you." She smiled hugging him. He smirked as Chester glared at him as he shook his head. "Well love it was nothing at all I owed you so consider our debt even." He said as the road towards the docks. "Let's take her on the Black Pearl and get her changed out of this wedding dress." Chester said helping her off the horse. "Chester I thought I would never see you again." She kissed him on the cheek which jealously cursed through Jack's veins. Jack walked with Halo onto the Pearl with Chester behind her. Gibbs smiled as he handed Halo a gold slim dress that was more of a less formal dress.

Halo came out dressed as Chester hugged her. "I am so happy to see you I thought you wouldn't be coming back." He said as Halo giggled. Jack looked at them and his heart sunk as Halo turned to Jack. "Jack thank you." She smiled as Jack looked at her. "Anything for you Lady Halo." He said as he headed into his Captain's quarters. Gibbs looked at Halo as she looked confused. "Halo there's something I have to tell you." Chester said grabbing Halo's full attention. "What is that?" she asked smiling. "I'm one of your brothers father made me promise to watch over you when he couldn't. Once I found you I became your guard so we're related." He said as Halo hugged him. "So I do have a family." She smiled again as tears of joy came to her eyes. "We need to listen to orders father we'll meet us in Tortuga. You can sail with Jack because I know you want time with him. I will follow you there with the crew on the Lady Lagoon. See you there." He said kissing her on the forehead before leaving. She smiled as Jack came back out shouting orders to the crew before looking at Halo with a sad face.

Halo was confused as to his reaction as they set sail towards Tortuga. Halo was served dinner without a word from Jack at all even though she ate with him. It was like this for a week and odd tension growing between them. Halo was starting to not understand why Jack was avoiding her at all costs not speaking a word. A few nights after that after the crew had gone to bed leaving Jack alone at the helm Halo came out of the Captain's quarters with a bottle of rum. She walked up the stairs handing him the bottle. "Thought you could use a drink." She muttered quietly. "Thanks." He took a swig of rum handing the bottle back to her. She took a small drink. "Can I ask why you're not talking to me?" she asked keeping her eyes at the ground. "Well you and Chester seem to be getting friendly." He replied in somewhat in a disgusted tone. "What do you mean?" she asked as Jack laughed. "Don't fool around with me miss lies won't get you far with me." Halo about fell over in laughter. "Chester is my brother that's why I was smiling because I thought I had no family." She explained handing him the rum.

"I see…sorry for the misunderstanding." He recoiled then fell silent again. Halo looked at the ground then walked up to Jack kissing him on the cheek. "I forgive you and thank you." She said before retreating back to the Captain's quarters as Gibbs relieve him from the helm. Halo sat down in the chair looking out the window as the moon danced across the waves. Jack knocked as he walked in as Halo looked up somewhat in tears. "Halo what is wrong?" his voice concerned. "I missed the sea and you." She muttered the last part quietly. Jack came up to her kneeling at her level. "Halo I want you happy no tears we'll be in Tortuga soon." He smiled to her as Halo giggled as he made a funny face to make her laugh. She shook her head. "You're quite charming when you want to be Jack." Halo said as Jack smirked. "You still owe me that thank you and I know what I want." Jack said as he pulled her up with him. "What would that be?" she asked quietly. "You…" he said kissing her deeply. Halo's heart skipped a beat as shivers shot down her spine making her weak in the knees she wrapped her arm around his shoulders kissing him back. Jack backed her up again the wall as he deepened the kiss. He pulled away as he held Halo in his arms. "I love you…" he whispered to her. She blushed as she replied "I love you too."

So I stuck to my promise I hope you like it. Happy Holidays to all. Please review I love feedback.
