Chapter 41:
A/N: Yay! Snickers! I'll trade! I'll Trade! Woo Hoo. Snickers! Any way yeah my story, hmn I was thinking of ending it soon but not until one more thing is complete. You see I'd like to explain what happens when the crew goes to get the Aztec gold and I'm trying to do it within the next 10 chapters (hopeful not so long, but it would be cool to end on a 50th chapter.) All right enough of my blabber, here's the next one!
Disclaimer: no I don't own POTC don't think I ever will, hope to own Johnny Depp someday. doubt it will happen!
When the Pearl was brought into port the sailors merely looked at it in awe. Salina was one of the first on the peer; she gazed up at the spectacular ship that she had waited so long to board once again.
"Lina! Lina!" A small girl came running down to the peer Salina moved to face the girl and smiled widely.
"Oh, Beth!" She reached down and grabbed the girl only to fall to her knees and sit on the peer.
"Lina don't leave! Please don't leave!" Salina's eyes filled with tears as the crew boarded the Black Pearl. Salina closed her eyes and went through the memories of the past few weeks and the pain she went through to get away from her uncle.
"He just keeps coming back. He comes back." Salina muttered in between sobs. "I hate him!" She gripped Elizabeth to her chest and stood weakly.
There near the beginning of the peer stood her uncle. "You bastard!" Salina's eyes flared and she walked heavily over to the Governor. "You thought by sending my cousin down here that I would change my mind! I don't think so!"
"Salina." He said in a stern voice.
"You coward! You had to send an innocent child to get me to come back! I won't fall for this-." Elizabeth gripped her tighter as she cried.
Salina could feel the warm tears soak her shirt. "Lina please don't leave. I'll be good please don't leave. You're my best friend, I love you." She gazed up at Salina, her eyes wide with tears cascading down her cheeks.
"Beth." Salina whispered and then bit her lip. She looked furiously up at her uncle. "Take her back, never mention my name or existence to her. I will not have her feel this way, have the regret for my leaving. I will not have her feel like she caused it."
Salina hugged Beth and then gave her to her uncle. Elizabeth threw a fit as Governor Swann carried her off the peer and back up to the fort. Salina was left standing on the peer waving good-bye to the young girl who had such a big influence in her life.
Salina could feel a hand being laid on her shoulder. "What do we do now Jack?"
"Beats me. You're the one who got us out of this, you decide." A small smirk crossed his face.
"Lets leave and nigh return." She turned and looked straight up at him. His eyes were a hazel color and the sun rose high over his head creating a sort of halo.
Salina giggled as she starred at him.
"What?" Jack looked at her with strained eyes.
"Nothing, just that the way the sun is it creates a halo around your head." She laughed again.
"Oh, is that what this is about? Well I'm not much of an angel, aye?" He gave that look of sarcasm.
"No you failed at being one, that's why you got me." She laughed once more before reaching up and kissing him.
"Ahem!" Carolyn stood before the two pirates eyes wondering waiting for them to break up their 'kissing' session.
"Hi Carolyn!" Salina broke from the long awaited kiss.
"Can't ye see we're busy?" Jack sneered.
"The whole crew can see you're busy! But, that's not what I'm here about." A small boy came out from behind Carolyn.
"Little Turner." Salina walked to him and squatted down to his height. "How are you today?"
"Fine." The boy smiled at her, his brown locks in curls around his face.
"Salina?" Jack walked up behind her.
"I haven't brought him aboard yet and I don't plan on it."
"Well you certainly can't just leave him here." Salina stood and looked at Carolyn.
"I know I'm not boarding either." Salina gazed in shock at her.
"Where will you go?"
"I was thinking we could barter a passage back over to England. It'd be a lot easier to raise him there." Carolyn seemed very unsure of her decision.
"If ye ever need anything, the Black Pearl is here." Jack said hesitantly before boarding the ship himself.
"Forgive him, he's not very good at comforting people. But we will be here."
"Thank you."
"Here comes Will so I'll leave you three alone. Just try not to take to long otherwise the navy might just charge at our ship and I've had all the battles that I can handle for today." Carolyn smiled as Salina walked away and her husband approached.
"Ello' Salina." Eric grinned at her. "He's up at the steer."
"Thank you Eric." Salina walked up the steps to he steer. It took a minute for Jack to notice her standing there, but in that minute to her he looked so gallant and yet mysterious.
"How's Will?" He asked breaking the silence.
"He's saying goodbye to his family again, how do you think he feels?" Jack looked at her questioning her attitude. "Sorry, I didn't mean to be cocky. I just wish Carolyn would stay with us. You know it'd be nice to have another woman aboard once in a while."
"Well I could arrange to have a hooker come aboard and stay with us. That would be really fun, you know." He gave that evil grin and played with his mustache.
"For you maybe, but if ye did that you wouldn't see the likes of me again." She walked closer to Jack who held his arms lovingly around her side.
"Now where have I heard that said before?" Salina smiled in embarrassment. "Oh yes I believe you told me that when you left to go with James, but I see you still here next to me."
"As I will always be." Again she leaned up and kissed him, this time it meant something real. Something unexplainable had occurred to the crew. They had no idea how much Jack had really cared for her until this moment, sure they had seen them together and knew this would happen. But this kiss was greater than all that knowledge it symbolized something.
Salina let her lips leave Jack's and she just starred straight into his eyes, wondering what was ahead of them. "I love you." She whispered in a soft voice before hugging him tightly.
The next two years would hold bliss for the crew of the Black Pearl. They had wondered all across the Caribbean and it still seemed different every time they circled through. It was their home and would remain that forever.
An older Salina appeared out on deck just as the sun was rising. She walked past the steer all the way to the end of the ship. She looked out at the water and let the sea spray her face. She was now 19 and her face healed from the scratches of the battle taken place just two years before.
She was tall and slender, but most definitely not scrawny. She could run the ship just as good as any man, maybe even better. Her hair was about the same length and was pulled back into a ponytail with the scarf. Her cloths were more dirty and tattered then before but she didn't mind, this was her life forever and always.
A/N: How was that? I know time flew, I'll elaborate on that more. Thank you guys so much for sticking with my story I am so glad you like it. No, it is not over yet if that's what you're thinking. Like I said I still have a few more things to do. Well thanks greatly, luv you all!
