\NOTE: in chapter 9, those lyrics were Eric Clapton's Change the world.
Forgot to mention that.

Angel spun around slowly, then turned back right away to look at the depleting form of Tortuga. Tears fell from her eyes, but she tried to hold on to a bit of dignity and held her head high.
"Angel?" Jack said, eyebrows furrowed in concern. "Did that Riley man do something?"
Angel's head dropped, her braids falling over her face.
"I swear te the ocean! If tha whelp did ANYTHIN' te hurt ye, Angel!" Jack considered diving into the ocean and to the port, then strangling the man, but
"Shut up, Jack. It just.wasn't what I expected the reunion to be."
The sorrow in Angel's voice quieted Jack, more than her yelling at him ever did. "So, would you care to tell me what's going on?"
"You'll hate me."
"You think I'll hate you? ANGEL, FOR GOD'S SAKES! I LOVE YOU!" Jack's heart pounded and his tan face was red under the grim.
"My real name.it isn't Angel," she said heavily.
"Of course not," Jack said, "It's Isabella. Your maiden name is Isabella Norrington."
"No, Jack, it's not. It's Eve. Eve Spade," Jack's mouth opened in surprise, "And I'm not from Port Royale or Tortuga. Or even this time."
"What are ye talking about, Angel?" Jack's voice grew weary, his eyes tired and concerned. He furrowed his eyebrows again in confusion.
Angel felt like crying all over again. "I'm sorry, Jack. I couldn't tell you that first day.I thought you'd kill me! But I'm from the future, Jack, far in the future."
Jack mustered the best bad-guy look he could. "What makes you think I still won't?" He growled. But his face dropped when he saw the tears begin to fall from Angel's eyes.
"I don't think you won't. I deserve to die, Jack," She kneeled and pulled her hair off her neck, "So kill me," She looked up, "But know that I love you, and that was never a lie."
She looked back down at the floor. Jack dropped to his knees.
"I loved you! I TRUSTED YOU." Jack said, tearstreaks obvious on his cheeks.
"I'm sorry, Jack. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! Jack? Jack I LOVE YOU! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT HASN'T CHANGED?"
Jack looked at her in disgust. "I don't love someone I don't know," he said simply.
Angel looked at him in disbelief. She shook her head and stood, slowly stepping backwards. "No.no." She said. But she cut herself off by bumping into the half-wall that kept her in the crow's nest. She looked back at Jack with gray eyes. "I'm sorry, Jack."
And with those few last words Angel jumped over the little wall into the deep blue Caribbean and didn't try to swim back up.

Jack looked up in disbelief. Three words. "I'm sorry, Jack." Three words before she just jumped. The pirate captain gasped, then did a beautifully formed swan-dive into the sea to go after her.
