Thirteen!
It was over. The crew of the Revenger were mostly in chains already being taken to the British brig.
Elizabeth and Jack stood on the British ship's deck. Elizabeth's yellow dress was now stained, burned, and ripped. But she still held a pirate's cutlass in one hand, yet another example of her bravery and spunk. Jack, on the other hand, wasn't much different then what he always was. Dirty, and walking around like the ruler of the seven seas, Jack was the same as always even after a major battle.
However, Elizabeth knew something was wrong. "Jack, where's Will?"
Jack paused. "Don't know."
Elizabeth's heart skipped a beat. "Jack." She said slowly, as much to calm herself down more than anything else, "He isn't here." Her eyes widened as she looked at the Revenge, they were already drawing away from the doomed ship. "He's still on the Revenge-"
Jack looked out over to where the ship was sinking, and then back at Elizabeth. He saw her face go pale, and he knew exactly what he was going to do. "Be back soon love." With that, he grabbed a loose rope which had been used to swing onto the Revenge in the first place, and jumped up onto the rail. He looked at the distance, and saw he might not clear the water, and he also saw the fins of the sharks. He closed his eyes, "Tally hooooo!" He swung through the air, and then let go of the rope to land on the burning deck of the Revenge.
Elizabeth leaned up against the British ship's railing, her hair blowing in the wind and the sound of the thunder in the air.
Then, the Revenge exploded. The fire had finally reached the powder storage. The fire from the explosion reached far up into the sky. Elizabeth couldn't believe it, her heart stopped and she couldn't breathe. Everything hurt, everything. Everything was lost, even Jack. "No!"
The wind changed again, and the smoke from the Revenge enveloped the deck of the English ship. Elizabeth slid to the hard floor, burying her face in her hands.
"A little assistance here!"
Elizabeth knew that voice, she stumbled to her feet. "Jack?"
"Do I have to rescue everyone and then have to be eaten by sharks for my trouble!?!"
The wind blew away the smoke, and below her in the water was Jack, Will, and a very ill looking Commodore Norrington.
"They're here! Men in the water!" Elizabeth screamed, grabbing hold of some rope and beginning to lower it down. Instantly, there were half a dozen English soldiers beside her.
"Hurry up then!" Jack yelled, eerily watching as a couple sharks headed in their direction.
First Commodore Norrington, then Will, and then just as the sharks opened their mighty maws, Jack was pulled aboard.
"The Commodore is injured!" A soldier yelled, and instantly a doctor was summoned.
Elizabeth took Will into a tight embrace. He was unsteady on his feet, but Elizabeth didn't feel it. "I thought I lost you Will Turner." She whispered, tears running down her face.
Will closed his eyes. Feeling her warmth against his cold skin. "I'm sorry."
Elizabeth pulled back to look into his eyes. "I love you, Will." She whispered.
"I love you too." Will answered. "I'm going to tell you every day. I will. As long as I'm alive."
Jack, who had been totally ignored all of this time cocked his head to the side irratibly. "Don't I at least get a thankyou?!"
"Thankyou!" Elizabeth said.
"Yes my friend." Will said. "Thank you for the adventure."
The End..
Gotta run! Epilog tomorrow!
