DISCLAIMER: THE CHARACTERS OF THIS STORY DO NOT BELONG TO ME. SAM AND RAVEN DO. NO MONEY IS BEING MADE OFF THIS STORY.

Author's note: I want to thank everyone for the nice reviews. This is my first pirates of the Caribbean fic and I'm glad you like it. Well here goes on chapter 9.

P.S. I am sorry about the confusion with chapter 9 Below is chapter 9 and I have combined chapter 10 at the bottom.

The next thing that Jack heard was Elizabeth's piercing scream as she ran to the edge of the ship. "WILL!" But she couldn't see Will. No one could. Jack turned around to see his daughter at the edge of the stairs. Her movements had caused her cuts to bleed through her shirt. "Father! What did you do?" she screamed. She grabbed her father by his shirt. "What the bloody hell did you do?" she shouted. The look in her eye was crazed. "Luv you need to sit down." Sam threw her father a few feet backward and collapsed on the deck.

After Sam was taken back to her bed the crew members including Elizabeth stared at Jack. "Listen mates. I'm sorry. I didn't mean for that to happen. I was angry. I'm sorry. But you know Will. He might be alright." Elizabeth through her tear stained eyes knocked the lights out of Jack.

The black pearl pulled into port that night at a small town. It was a town they had not yet visited. They were all trying to keep faith for Will and yet trying to get so drunk they'd forget about it. Elizabeth did not go with them. She stayed with Sam on the ship.

The taverns in this town were as vile as any other. The crew members of the black pearl wouldn't have it any other way. They were all still trying to register what had happened today. Some still didn't believe it was true. But they had to stay true to the pirates code. Whatever man is left behind stays behind. Even if it was Will.

Annamaria walked back from the bar and sat down across from Gibbs. "What has taken over Jack Gibbs? I mean I know he's always been a little off but why would he do something like that? And to Will?" Gibbs just shook his head and took another swig of his rum. "Where is the old Captain anyway?" he muttered. "Probably dodging the wrath of Elizabeth and the rest of us. I just don't know Gibbs. I have a bad feeling about this."

The back streets of this town were more vile then the taverns themselves. Jack wondered them aimlessly. His mind was clouded and all he could focus on was the rum in his hand. He tried to imagine that what had happened today didn't really happen. I mean Captain Jack Sparrow was a fierce pirate but he didn't kill his friends. Did he? "Ah bloody hell." he shouted drunkenly as he smashed the bottle. A dark shadow past Jack that he just didn't see.

"Where are you going tonight luv?" Jack turned to see what looked like a woman with her face hidden. "Not tonight mate. I'm just not in the mood." The woman seemed to chuckle. "Captain Jack Sparrow not in the mood. Okay I guess I'll just have to settle for something else." Jack never did see the fist coming at him.

Elizabeth wonder the decks of the black pearl aimlessly. Salty tears still spilled down her face. The crimson moonlight made them shimmer. She couldn't take it in. Will just could not be gone. Not after all that they had gone through together. She felt guilty. After what she had put him through and now he was gone. But what she didn't understand was why Jack had done this. But she knew it had something to do with Sam.

Elizabeth made her way towards Sam's room when a pair of rough hands closed over her mouth and the other one turned her around. Her eyes became so wide. "Shhh…." whispered the voice. "Will? But how?"

Author's note: I am sorry about the confusion with chapter 9. The below will be chapter 10.

Will looked into Elizabeth's big brown eyes and knew they were filled with fear. "How Elizabeth? Well Jack forgot who my father was. I am a pirate after all. Thank God I could swim and there was a town nearby. You know the town where everyone went to get drunk and forget about Will? Well Infamous Captain Jack Sparrow is lying in a back alley way knocked out cold."

Elizabeth slid her arms around Will's neck and hugged him tight. "Oh God Will. I thought that I had lost you again. Why did Jack do that?" Will hugged her tighter and hesitated. He knew he couldn't lie to her. "I kissed Sam." he whispered. Elizabeth quickly pulled away from him. "What?" Will just lowered his head. When he looked back up Eilzabeth's hand made contact with his face.

Will knew he deserved that. "After all I went through for you Will! My life was threatened and I did it all for you! This is how you repay me? Your just as bad as Jack." Elizabeth turned to go and Will grabbed her arm. "Don't you touch me!" she shouted as she shook off his arm.

Will turned around slowly to see the crew members bringing back Jack's sleeping body. "Ah I knew ole Jack couldn't take a little swing." Everyone shot up their heads quickly. Gibbs and Annamaria dropped Jack. They heard Jack groan and then stepped over him. "Will?" Annamaria asked bewildered. She ran up and threw her arms around him and then regained her composure. "Sorry." she mumbled. "Will you scurvy dog! I should have known you had it in you!" Gibbs shouted as he slapped his back. "Yeah and your lucky I know how to swim." Gibbs got quiet and looked at Will. "About Jack mate. How are you going to deal with that?" Will smiled. "Me and Jack are just going to have a little talk. Bring him below deck."

3 days later…

Elizabeth sat in her room and thought about the situation at hand. Will and Jack had somewhat reconciled. But Will was so stubborn and Jack was so cocky that there was still some tension. Sam had stayed in her room for three days. Will and her couldn't look at each other and she refused to see Jack. Elizabeth laughed. As far as her and Will were concerned, well there was tension too. Elizabeth wasn't too quick to forgive but she loved him. That she couldn't help.

Elizabeth walked slowly out the bedroom door. Everyone was below deck and Elizabeth had mastered the skill of sneaking past them. Annamaria was at the steer. Jack had been neglecting his duties for the last three days. But then again she didn't want to think about Jack.

"Ahoy there Elizabeth!" Annamaria shouted from the steer. Elizabeth turned and nodded. She then headed for the edge of the ship. There was something different about the water tonight. The air felt different and the moon hung strangely. She had been at see too long. "Yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me." she sung low. "Don't want to be singing about that darlin. Cursed pirates sail these waters." elizabeth laughed as she faced Gibbs.

"Funny the one who said that to me became a pirate himself." Gibbs laughed. "How you be darlin?" Elizabeth sighed. "I've always been better. Everything's just so out of order right now." Gibbs was the one to sigh now. "That be true. But there's nothing the black pearl and it's crew can't handle." Elizabeth turned her head back to the sea and then headed back to her room.

Elizabeth sat up straight at the fimilar sound of cannons. "What in the bloody hell?" she whispered. As she emerged above deck she gasped in horror. The black pearl was under attack. Suddenly Will's arm grabbed her shoulder and pulled her aside. "Will what's happening?" Will just looked ahead at a pirate who had just come on board. "Hello mates. The name be Captain Thomas Raven."
