Thanks for reviewing. Fairly short chapter here, sorry. Enjoy.
Not long afterward they arrived at the Dutchman.
Elizabeth's hand was tightly clenched in Will's and he allowed her to get onto the ship before him. The order went Bootstrap, Jack, Elizabeth and finally Will.
"Shall we go under Captain," some of the crew asked.
"Not just yet," Will said raising a hand for everyone to be silent.
Elizabeth got a good look at everyone. They all looked a bit like they had the last time she saw them except that they weren't as bad. They might've had some shells and so forth on them but at least they seemed to have their minds this time.
"Men, we've got ourselves a new mission." Now he officially had everyone's undivided attention. "Many years ago I was wronged by someone I'd trusted. I believe you've all heard of Calypso."
The men all nodded and muttered so he continued. "Well, Calypso told me my wife had died and even went as far as to say that my wife had been unfaithful. Now though, I finally know the truth," Will said turning to Elizabeth. She came forward and locked hands with him.
Elizabeth really needed to get the whole truth out of him. If he was still doing his duty then why had the curse affected him so?
While she had been having those thoughts, Will had finished giving his speech and the men went about their ship business as usual.
"We need to talk," she said pulling his arm and dragging him away.
She had brought the both of them into the large room that still held Jones' magnificent organ.
"What do you want to talk about?" Will asked putting his hands into his pockets.
"Oh gee, let me think could it be the fact that you're kind of the new Davy Jones?" she said sarcastically.
"Elizabeth, let me explain."
He took her hand into his and she looked into his eyes.
"When I'd thought you'd died, I wanted to die as well. Calypso gave me my heart back and a day later I disposed of it. Threw it into the sea. I would've stabbed it myself if I was sure I'd die. Elizabeth, you are my very heart and soul. The reason I still exist. We are one."
Both Will and Elizabeth were now in tears.
"And now that I know you're alive, I have a better chance of living again."
Elizabeth leaned over and kissed him.
This was where they truly belonged. Together.
Thanks for reading. An update will come later this week or either tomorrow or Tuesday (college fall break rocks).
