FIRST! IMPORTANT!

I promise I will answer all the reviews and private messages tomorrow! REASON: Because it's too late right now here, in Spain (it's 3:30 AM and tomorrow I have to wake up early T.T) I just wanted to upload this new chapter, which I have been writing till today! This weekend I will try to upload the continuation!
I hope you all understand my reasons and thank you!

Edward's POV

I didn't remember the exact moment when I lost her track. But I remember perfectly when a high noise sounded behind me and it pulled me down, under the water. It was a bomb, which had fallen between us. I had to swim harder till I reached the surface once again. I breathed deeply, feeling how my lungs increased in size because of the big amount of air I inhaled at once.

When I was sure that I didn't have anything broken. I looked around me. I felt my heart hurt in my chest so hardly when I realized that I couldn't find Aurora.

"AURORA!" I yelled with all my might "AURORA!" I almost lost my voice in the middle of the scream.
I hoped nothing had happened to her. That girl was going to give me a heart attack!
"AURORAAA!" I yelled again, hoping to receive an answer, although it was an insult.

"CAPTAIN KENWAY! CAPTAIN KENWAY!" I heard behind me. It was Billy, who was swimming rapidly towards me "Captain Kenway! We have to go to the Jackdaw! There's no time!" He yelled.
I was searching with my eyes everywhere in the surface. But I didn't find her.

"AURORA!" I repeated with a yell.

"Captain! Forget her! She's dead now!" Billy shouted while he tried to grab me. But I put resistance. I couldn't leave her, she could be still alive.

"She's not dead!" I complained, trying to not let water enter in my mouth. It didn't help me to breath normally, besides I was out of control.

"For God's sake, Edward! A fucking bomb has fallen over her, there's no chance to find her alive! You know that!" Billy protested, pulling me towards my boat.

I struggled, giving him a punch in his jaw. I'm sorry, Billy, you hadn't given me another option. Finally I could let go of him. I pushed him away and he sunk a little in the water.

"EDWARD!" He yelled.

"GO TO THE JACKDAWY, BILLY! I MUST FIND HER!" I said as I was getting away.

Billy tried to follow me but every time he tried to grab one of my feet, I resisted. Until he gave up. I kept swimming till the last place where I saw Aurora.

"AURORA!" I called her but again, no answers. The other vessel was still bombing, but this time, the bombs were for the Jackdaw. Oh God, we were so near! "AURORAAAA!" Last time I screamed her name because I knew that it wouldn't solve anything. I stared at the water, she must be sinking to the bottom. I inhaled all the air I could and I submerged.

It was hard to keep my eyes open when I was under the water. The salt of the sea entered in my eyes and it stung. But, without complains, I began to search for Aurora. I dove a few meters when a figure appeared in the middle of my vision. It was her. She was unconscious, as far as I knew. But a few bubbles came out from her mouth so it meant that she was still alive. I began to swim the fastest I could.
I saw her pale skin, more than she was normally. Her lips weren't red, they were turning deep purple.
I pulled her fainted body next to me and I began to swim towards the surface. Although I was under the water, I could hear the high noise of the bombs colliding, possibly, with the wood of my dear Jackdaw. Don't worry my baby, I'm going to save you.

We reached the surface. I almost lost my breath in the last moment because I was swimming with all my might and I was losing the strength. I just wanted to keep Aurora alive.

I pulled her body in a straight way "Aurora!" I shook her head lightly, hoping to see her eyes open. But she didn't move "AURORA!" I shook her head once more time. I shifted the hair from her face, revealing his almost white skin "Aurora, please, don't do this to me…" I mumbled. I felt how my throat cracked like if something broke inside. My eyes got wet, and it wasn't because of the water of the sea. I tried with all my might to not get carried away by my emotions. But I couldn't see her dying.
A few waves shook us, making me to lose the equilibrium and I noticed that the vessel, which was attacking before, was coming next to us, approaching to my Jackdaw. I observed how that damn boat was bombing my crew. I could hear their screams. But they were defending against the attacker. My crew was strong men.

I guided my eyes to her again. No signs of life. I couldn't lose her like this. I couldn't! A heavy weight was squeezing my chest, making my heart to beat faster. I closed my eyes lightly as I bent my head, leaning it against her forehead. I put my two hands in her cheeks. I caressed the skin of her face slightly "Aurora… Wake Up… Wake Up… Please…" I mumbled with trembling voice "Open your eyes… please…" I whispered, closing my eyes harder.

I didn't receive any answer. I waited for a seconds, hoping that she was going to wake up. But it was late. Billy was right. A bomb had fallen over her, she must be dead. However, I couldn't let go of her body. Maybe it was my hope, the wish of her saying my name, although she is insulting me. Or giving me her annoying glances. I didn't want to lose that. I didn't want to recognize it, but… It was the first time I felt something like this. The overwhelming feeling of losing someone. But, Why her? Why did she make me feel like I felt? She wasn't anything special for me, absolutely nothing. So, why did I feel like this?

For first time, I was scared.

"Edward…?" Her voice rose up in my ear. At the beginning I thought I was imagining "Edward…" I heard again. I couldn't believe it.

I opened my eyes at the same time, I lifted my head and I found her lips turning red slowly "Aurora…" Her name was the only thing that passed through my mind.

"I feel cold…" She whispered while her lips were shivering.

I chuckled. I couldn't avoid putting a big smile in my lips. She was alive. I knew she wasn't a weak girl "It's alright, Aurora, it's alright" I murmured while I hugged her. I had to carry her towards the Jackdaw. And kick the other boat out "Can you swim?" I questioned her.
She moved her legs and arms "Yes" She finally said with a whisper.

"We are going to swim till the Jackdaw, alright? Please, don't stop – I will go behind you" I explained. She nodded lightly.
She commenced to swim sluggishly, but with the sound of the bombs near of us, she rushed her strokes.

I was mysteriously happy. Aurora… I don't know what are you doing, but you are making me feel weird…

Aurora'S P.O.V

His voice had woken me up. I heard him in spite of all the silence I heard when I was…sleeping. I didn't know how I ended there. The last thing I remember was when something fell in front of me, pulling me down the water. Then, I remember the unbearable feeling because I couldn't breath.
But he saved me. Edward saved me. He could have left, but he didn't. He could have gone to the Jackdaw and defend his boat. But he didn't. He chose to save me. And that was a fact I couldn't still believe.

We both reached the wood of the big Jackdaw. I had to lift my head to see the entire boat. It was enormous.

"KENWAY! WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU?" Someone yelled from the deck. I heard Edward chuckling.

"Adewale! throw us a rope, we need to climb" Edward ordered with a smirk in his lips.

I didn't know how he could do that. He was totally under control. He knew what he was doing and he didn't hesitate for any moment. His confidence about himself was unbelievably strong, and it made him fearsome.
In spite of his happiness in battle, I was anxious. I wasn't afraid, don't misunderstand. I was nervous, like if I wanted to reach the surface and kill them all. All my bad feelings went to the other boat which attacked us and almost killed me in the most unfair way.

I saw how two ropes flew over the handrail of the deck and they fell next to us. Edward swam towards one and grabbed it. I did the same, copying his moves.

My clothes were totally wet, and they weighed a lot. I didn't know if I could be able to climb with my slippery boots. Fortunately I could and I reached the deck before Edward. I laughed at him in a playful way. He just grumped.

"AURORA! I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU!" Billy's voice sounded behind my back. I turned around and he was giving a puppy look, like he was insinuating something. I gave him a weird expression mixed with annoyance and bewilderment.

"What do you want, Billy?" I replied with tiring voice.

He giggled "I'm ju-just happy to s-e-see you again" He stuttered.

"You told me she was dead, then look at her" Edward said appearing behind my back. Billy's eyes went wide. The Captain pointed at me with his finger "She's here – And she isn't a ghost" He said in a sarcastic way.

"I-I'm sorry, Captain…" Billy murmured bending his head.

Edward laughed aloud "Never be contrary of the captain, it's an advice" He mocked as he began to walk away.
I smiled lightly. Billy's expression was puzzled and totally red because of embarrassment.

I still felt cold in my arms and legs, however I felt incredibly fine. I didn't know why I had recovered so quickly. I glared at my neck. I grabbed the necklace with one hand and stared at it. It was still shinning, lightly. But it didn't burn anymore. This stone… I remembered when Edward told me about the necklace the first time. At the beginning I thought it was a joke, that Edward was exaggerating. Although the last incidents I had started to believe that maybe this necklace was magical. Was the stone protecting me? But the best question… would it guide me to 'La Piedra'? Sincerely, I was curious about the story Edward told me. Was it real? So, if this stone is magic… could it guide me towards my father?

"AURORA! GO TO YOUR CHAMBER! YOU RUN THE RISK TO GET INJURED!" I heard his voice yelling at me. It woke me up from my thoughts. I turned around and I stuck out my tongue. He smirked. Edward knew that I never listen him.

I observed around me. The entire boat was out of control. A lot of bombs were crushing against the wood of the Jackdaw. Some of the sailors flew in the air and fell in the water. The floor trembled every time they shot us. I felt how the adrenaline ran over my veins and arteries. Forming one more part of my body.
I spotted one free cannon. Nobody was shooting with it. Two bodies were lying in the ground, dead. With blood in their clothes and head. I stared at them during a few seconds, analyzing their deep wounds.
I walked towards the free cannon, it was a swivel gun. I felt that I was being observed but I didn't care. I just wanted to take part of this battle. I loaded the big gun and aimed. I saw the sailors from the other boat. They had uniforms, something that really confused me. But, nowadays, a lot of boats from kings and queens attacks pirate ships. Isn't it?

I bit my tongue, controlling my nerves. Finally, I picked one of the sailors. And like the blink of an eye, I shot. I saw how the little bomb (compared with the others bombs) fell over the head of my target. I was a witness of his body falling in the floor, disappearing of my vision.
I jumped happily because of my great shot. I loaded again the cannon and aimed. Next target, FIRE!
Once again, I hit him and the other sailor who was next to my objective. I was pretty good with weapons, I think!

"Aurora…" Somebody spoke behind my back. I had to turn around although I wanted to keep firing to the enemies, but my curiosity is bigger than my aggressiveness. I surprised because I was in front of the other man who I previously had stolen his bow "Take this, miss, I think you will need it more than me" He said as he stretched out the bow in his hands towards me. I stared at them totally astonished. What the hell had I lost?

"Am… thank you" I said while I took the weapon. I placed it in my back. The sailor giggled shyly and left. I didn't know what had just happened. When the sailor had gone to other side of the Jackdaw, I spotted Calico Jack waving his hand from the other side of the deck. He had his annoying smile over his lips and his drunken expression in his eyes. I groaned to myself. It only could be him.

I made my way towards the bridge deck, where Edward was controlling the whole ship. He gave the orders to fire the cannons. I had to dodge the other mates because they were running side to side, without paying attention of what was around them.

"Edward! Who is attacking us?" I yelled at him. He stared at me with his eyes stuck in mine. Without saying any word, I felt the need to guess it by myself. I ran towards Blackbeard's position. He was at the other side of the bridge deck. I took the spyglass, a small telescope. I observed through that object. Blackbeard groaned but he didn't say anything. He knew what I was doing and thinking.

I looked the enemy boat, every sailor, every weapon. Getting information about our attackers. And then, I saw him. I blinked tightly. Maybe my vision had blurred. I observed one more time.

"No me lo puedo creer… [I can't believe it…]" I whispered in my native language. I looked once again through the small telescope "Harry… ¡RATA ASQUEROSA!" [REPULSIVE RAT!] I yelled with all my might. I threw the spyglasses to Blackbeard's hands. The object almost fell in the ground, but he was clever and he prevented it.

I began to run towards the side of the boat where I saw Fellon. I had to find a way to reach the other ship. I analyzed around me. A few ropes of the sails were tied next to me. Like if it was a candle, something lighted up in my mind. A brilliant idea, but dangerous.
I cut one of the knots with my knife while I was grabbing with my free hand the rope. I felt how my body was raised and I swung towards one of the masts of the enemy boat.

"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I heard Edward screaming from the place where I left. He was mysteriously furious. I could felt it although I was away.

I grabbed the stick of one of the masts. I almost lost the strength but I could stabilize my hands, still grabbing the stick, with my legs flying over the other vessel and the water. I had to climb towards the main mast. So that was what I did. I had to resist falling because my hands got tired of all the exercise and pressure. I didn't want to fall so I had to be stronger.
Finally, with a sigh, I reached the main mast. I grabbed it wrapping my arms and legs around it and then, I let my body fall down.
With all the rushing moves and haste, my clothes had dried. So I could move easily.

When my feet reached the wood of the deck, I spotted two guards who were taking charge of one cannon. I ran behind them, took out my dagger and stabbed one of them in his back, exactly in his right ribs. I felt how the blood stained my hands. The man gave a drown scream and his mate noticed it. I dropped the dead body to the floor and made my way towards the other guard.
He took his sword out of his belt but when he was about to sheathe, I moved my dagger to its blade and pulled it aside, throwing its weapon towards the floor, with the dead body of his friend. The guard stared at me confused. I walked towards him, almost my body was right beside his.

I stared at his eyes, giving him a deeply glance. I didn't know how my expression was, but with the frightening gaze he had, I could guess that I was something similar to the Devil.

Finally I stabbed my dagger in his stomach. He didn't put resistance. He was too scared that he didn't know how to react. But it was too late, now he was going to die.
He fell next to my feet. I felt strange. Something was running in my blood that was scaring me. My monsters, my demons. They had taken the control of my body and they were obligating me to do this. I was killing people coldly.
I stared at the horizon. Jackdaw was in front of my eyes, with his crew defending with everything they had. This vessel was hard to defeat.
I was heavy breathing, with my emotions out of control. I wanted to blow the entire vessel because they had almost killed me, but besides, I didn't want to do it. I wasn't that kind of person.

The memory of my dream passed through my mind like it was a flash. The dream when I saw Edward, Allen, Harry and my father… They said that I had changed, that I wasn't listening. But… listening what…?
I hear the click of the secure of a gun behind my nape. I was quiet, in the same position.

"Drop the dagger" The person who was aiming to me spoke. I recognized his voice. My old friend, Fellon.
I let the dagger fall in the ground. It bounced a few times. I think I wasn't breathing, because when I had listened the noise of the gun, my body froze immediately.

"Now, let me see your hands" Harry spoke without taking his gun from my neck.

I lifted my hands a little, showing him that I didn't have more weapons. He pulled me towards the edge of the rail. I thought he was about to throw me overboard because I saw the water from above.
I felt how his hands grabbed the neck of my jacket and turned me around, facing me. His body was totally next to me. I could feel his breath touching the skin of my face. It smelled disgusting.

He groaned and aimed his gun towards my forehead "You are mine, now"
