Natalie felt someone touch her hand and she opened her eyes to see Jack untying the ropes. "You're alright…" She said breathlessly

He looked up at her and gave her a small smile. "I'm fine…but you look terrible." Jack frowned, as he looked her over. "What has he done to you? Well, I'm sure it's nothing Elizabeth can't cure."

"She's here…with you…?" Natalie asked as Jack helped her up.

"That's why I was late. I had gone back to Port Royal to get her and Will." He replied softly.

"So you didn't leave me…" Natalie whispered happily.

"No…now we have to get off this ship Elizabeth has been worried about you." Jack walked to the door with Natalie behind him, but as she left the room Natalie turned back and saw John's lifeless body an the floor.

Once both Natalie and Jack were on The Black Pearl Elizabeth came up to Natalie and said. "What happened to you? You're so pale and thin…" Elizabeth said astonished at what happened to her sister.

"Well, it's nice to see you to Elizabeth…" Natalie said with a smile and hugged her sister.

"Oh, Natalie thank goodness you're alright…" Came a voice from behind her and Natalie turned only to be pulled into an embrace by Jaclyn.

"Jaclyn, you came to…?" Natalie said trying her best not to be rude to her. Why am I not surprised? She thought.

"Oh, when Jack told me about what had happened to you I wanted to help. So he told me to come with him." She replied rather happily.

Natalie put on one of her fake smiles and said "Oh, how wonderful…" Just as Jaclyn started walking away.

Elizabeth put her arm around Natalie's shoulders and said. "Are you alright your shaking?"

She turned to her and said. "Yes, I just need to be alone for a while…" Elizabeth nodded and showed her to the room she would be staying in.

A while later there was a knock on the door. "Yes…?" Natalie asked. Jack walked in and sat down in a chair that was across from the bed, which Natalie was sitting on.

"What's bothering you…?" He asked simply.

"Nothing is bothering me I'm perfectly fine." She lied.

"Natalie, when I found you in John's cabin your face was stained with tears. What's troubling you?" Jack asked sounding concerned.

Natalie sighed and said. "Do you remember the argument we had the day I was kidnapped?" Jack nodded.

"Well, then I'm sure you remember telling me to set my priorities straight and I have Jack. You were the one who needed to get your priorities straight and make a decision on who you wanted. You still have to make that decision…" Natalie said softly.

"That's what has been bothering you…?" Jack asked.

"No, there's more. The other thing that has been bothering me is Jaclyn. She's been all over you and yet you don't seem to mind it one bit. It makes me wonder what went on between you two while I was kidnapped." She said not looking at him.

Jack opened his mouth to say something, but thought better of it. "What did I do wrong? Should I have stayed in Port Royal instead of going with you? Should I not have sat at your bedside when you were shot?" Natalie said quietly trying her hardest not to cry.

Just then there was a knock on the door and Will walked in. "Jack we need you up on deck." Will said and then left the room in a hurry. Jack got up and left the room without another word to Natalie.

After Jack left Natalie lay down on the bed and cried until she passed out. She awoke hours later and went up on deck to find out that it was dark out. Natalie walked to the edge of the ship and looked out toward the horizon and then down at the water.

"Just jump…no one will know…no one's here…" A voice in her head said.

What's the point jumping it's not going to solve anything. Natalie thought.

"Yes, if you jump, you drown and then you won't have to worry about seeing Jaclyn and Jack together." The voice responded.

Even if I do commit suicide Jack would probably go with Jaclyn after I'm dead, so there's no point in doing it. Natalie thought back.

"Natalie…what are you doing out here?" Natalie turned around and saw Elizabeth standing behind her.

"I just came out to get some air. Can I ask you something?" Natalie asked and turned back to watch the ocean.

"Sure, go ahead…" Elizabeth said walking over and standing next to her sister.

"I know you have seen Jack with Jaclyn and I want to know what you think of it?" She asked curiously.

"I'm not sure, but I know it's nothing serious." Elizabeth said looking at Natalie. "Why, do you fear it is?"

Natalie nodded. "Yea, earlier today I had told him that it bothered me seeing them together and he never gave me an answer." She said sadly looking at her sister for an answer.

"Well, I'll tell you this…if Jack didn't have some type of feelings for you he wouldn't have saved you from John." Elizabeth said and walked away leaving Natalie alone on the deck. Natalie stood there a bit longer thinking over what her sister had said and then finally went to bed.

The next morning Natalie was feeling a bit better and went up on deck to find Elizabeth, but the first thing she saw was Jack with his arm around Jaclyn's waist. She wanted to go back below deck and just feel miserable, but something in her mind told her otherwise and she just ignored it.

Natalie found Elizabeth leaning on the side of the ship looking at the horizon. "Hey, you okay…?" Natalie asked Elizabeth.

"Yea, I'm fine I just had to get away from them. "Elizabeth made a motion toward Jack and Jaclyn. "You look a lot better today…"

"Yea, I guess after our conversation last night I realized that I don't need Jack to live and that he can choose whoever he wishes." Natalie said feeling a bit better as she said this.

Elizabeth smiled. "Well, I'm glad you realized that…"

Natalie gave a small smile and said. "Yea, that's why I'm going to go back to Port Royal." She said softly so no one heard her.
