Sorry this took so long but I hope you all enjoy it...
James watched as The Flying Dutchman pulled beside him. Will climbed on board of The Endeavor II with his wife, Elizabeth.
"What's the emergency?" Will asked taking in his supposed son-in-law's features.
"Your granddaughter has been kidnapped by that rogue Captain Jack Sparrow! We must search the seven seas to find her. I will not rest until every ship is accounted for in clearance of a bad mark."
"You two have given me a granddaughter!" Elizabeth clasped her throat in excitement. "Does she look like you or Elizabeth?"
"Neither. She looks like Kendal Norrington. We must move."
"Hang on; are you saying my daughter has committed adultery?"
"No! She has married someone else and regretted it. We must hurry!" James shouted as he shoved past them.
Before he made another move Will grasped his shoulder. "We will find her."
"Just do whatever you can to get Anna home safe to her mother. That is all I ask."
Elizabeth followed James into the stuffy office and cranked open a window. "You are much like your father. I miss him…"
James abruptly turned and gazed upon the lovely mother of the woman he loved. "I beg you pardon?"
"James watched me grow up. But I never truly loved him for it. I didn't realize what I'd lost until I heard the news of his death. It seemed that James Norrington was inevitable…but he proved to be only human."
"I have yet to speak with my father. But when I saw him on that island, it was as if I were seeing a reflection in the water."
"In death you shall speak and see that you are not really like him. You possess qualities that I admit are dangerously close to him…but you have your mother in you too."
"Why did she hate you so?" James wondered to himself.
Elizabeth sighed and placed herself into a chair with her legs propped up. "She thought your father loved me and not her. She was a fool for thinking such nonsense. But she saved me more times than I can count…"
Elizabeth smirked before sitting up with a sudden thought. She turned her steady gaze to him and stood. "You are going to commit treason!"
James was startled by her statement, but did not make an advance to deny it.
"In order to save Anna you must give yourself over to the sly hands of death! James you cannot do this!"
"It is already done. I would do anything for your daughter and if that meant sacrificing myself for her happiness then so be it!"
Elizabeth was silent for a moment, then, "You really do love her then?"
"More than I can stand…"
Elizabeth nodded in agreement. "Whom did she marry?
"My cousin…"
"And does she love this cousin?"
"She detests the site of him."
"My daughter is of her own design…"
James nodded and together they sat in silence, counting the minutes until the reached the islands of the Caribbean, just of shore of Port Royal, where Anna was waiting.
A/N: We are getting very close to Anna and hopefully happiness shall be in order...or so you think.
