Chapter 6: Rescue
Jack Sparrow's son watched Kate's body hit the water and sink like a rock. "Dad, what the hell? Will you be saving her?" He didn't move, so young Jack took off his weapons as fast as he could and dove into the water. The water seemed to part as he hit the water. His father watched him disappear into the cool Caribbean water. He felt somewhat guilty for letting his son go down alone, so he took off his weapons and dove in after him.
The young Jack Sparrow caught Kaitlin when she almost reached the ocean's bottom. He tried to carry her up to the surface, but the dress made her heavy. He kept on loosing his grip, but he finally got her to the surface with ease. He looked to his right and saw that his father was helping him lift her. Mr. Gibbs threw a rope ladder over the side of the ship and they climbed it.
Captain Jack handed Kaitlin to Mr. Gibbs and he rested her on deck. "Dad, she's not breathing!" Young Jack started pacing as his father took out a knife and cut open her dress. As he predicted, she was wearing a corset, so he cut the front open. Kate's eyes opened suddenly and she started to cough up ocean water. When she finally stopped, she realized that Jack was leaning over her. She slapped him in the face, stood up, and ran back to her cabin, terrified. "Dad, what did you do?"
"I just helped you save her life and I got hit. Not sure I deserved that." He looked around and saw Anamaria. He gave her a nod and she ran to Kate's cabin. She opened the door to find Kaitlin sitting on the floor of her room with her knees to her chest. "Miss Turner, I'm not here to harm you. The captain has requested that I help you dry off." Kaitlin stood up and Anamaria helped her get the heavy dress off. "Why do you women torture yourselves and wear these things?"
"I just wore it because it's an obligation. What's your name, by the way?"
"Anamaria," she replied as she wrapped a long cloth around Kaitlin, "Another question, why are you wearing men's clothing underneath a corset and dress?"
"I work in a blacksmith shop with my father. I miss him so much."
"Your father is William Turner, aye?"
"Yes, and he never told me about any of these things.pirates and all. He just told me to avoid piracy, even though he let Jack spend the night at our home."
"He just didn't want you to feel different from the other women, but I'm sure that you did.having pirate blood flow through your veins." Kaitlin nodded her head and looked toward the window, hoping to find a way to get off the ship without getting killed.
Meanwhile, the sun was setting and Elizabeth was still standing at the bow of the Dauntless. Commodore Norrington walked over to her and looked out over the ocean. "I'm sorry, Elizabeth." She turned around and looked up at Norrington. Her eyes were filled with tears and fear at the same time. "What's wrong?"
"Commodore, do you think Kaitlin is safe?"
"I think that she has the spirit of her father, but your beauty," he replied as he wiped her tears away, "We'll find her." Will came strolling up from behind Norrington and tapped him on the shoulder. He nodded his head and bid a soft goodbye to Elizabeth. Will smiled and looked back at his wife. She looked tired and extremely depressed. He lifted his hand to her cheek and kissed her gently on the lips. When he let go of her, he saw her eyes fill with tears and run down her face. "Will, why would Jack Sparrow do this to us?"
"I'm not sure," he said as he stroked her cheek, wiping away her tears, "But I know that even though he took her from us, she's safe. He would never harm a lady."
"Then why did he take her?" Will paused and pondered that thought. His wife was making perfect sense of the situation. He slammed his fist on the railing of the ship and looked across the ocean with his wife by his side. Sparrow, when I find you, you're a dead man.
