Chapter 16: Anger and Unexpected Plans
School ended hours later and Kaitlin ran straight into the blacksmith shop when it ended. She picked up three swords and threw them against the door. A few seconds after she did that, Will came walking in. "Kate, what's going on?"
"Nothing.just practicing that trick you showed me.you know.to lock the doors."
"Well, you didn't succeed I'm afraid."
"I know.I was practicing my aim." Will walked over to his daughter and put his arm around her. "What's really going on?"
"Nothing.nothing father."
"No.you're not telling me the truth. What's making you so angry? You're home now.safe and sound."
"I think I should have made the Commodore let Jack go."
"You shouldn't be thinking about that. You did the right thing.and I'm proud of you. Your mother and I are so proud of you." She nodded as her father gave her a kiss on the forehead and they walked out of the blacksmith shop together. When they passed the jail, Kaitlin stopped and looked at the building. "Is something wrong?"
"Can we-?"
"You want to say goodbye to Jack?" Kaitlin nodded and her father walked her to the jail. That same guard Kaitlin had met earlier was there, and he gave her a sly smile. She groaned as she and Will walked past him and down the stairs. The crew was in one cell, and Jack and his son were in the other. "You betrayed us!" Anamaria yelled as Kate walked over to Jack's cell. He and his son ran to the door of the cell and gripped the bars tightly. "Why did you do this?"
"I'm sorry, Captain Sparrow. I just want to say-"
"Don't.just leave darling." She nodded her head and looked at Jack's son whose eyes were filled with fear and anger. "Miss Turner.I'm quite surprised at you, but I know you did this to get back to your home. I would have done the same." He reached out his hand to Kaitlin and she very hesitantly reached back. Her eyes began to water as she brought her face close to the square bars. Young Jack Sparrow locked his lips with hers in a gentle kiss, but then backed away. Kate and Jack just kept looking at each other until the Captain stepped in between them. "Stay away from my son, Miss Turner!"
"I guess this is goodbye then.so.farewell," she said as a tear ran down her face and she ran up the stairs and out of the jail. Will watched his daughter until she was out of sight, and then looked back Captain Sparrow. He shook his head at him and ran after his daughter. When he reached the top of the stairs and got out of the building, she was gone.
He ran back to the house, hoping Kaitlin would be there, and she was. She was sitting on the front steps, with her arms crossed and looking up at the sky. Elizabeth was sitting next to her with her arm around her daughter. When she saw her husband, she patted Kate on the shoulder and walked back into the house. Will sat down beside his daughter and looked at her. "So, how do you feel about what you did?"
"I'm not sure. I just wish that I could get them out of there. Even though the Captain hates me. I don't think that his son does."
"I could have told you that. You're in love.aren't you?"
"If always thinking about the person and loving when they touch you is being in love, then yes.yes I am."
"Do you want them out of there?"
"Yes.but the Black Pearl is always being guarded. There's no way that I can get them out by myself."
"Well, normally I wouldn't do something like this, but I'll help you."
"How?" she said as her father wiped away a tear that ran down her face.
"Well, I can get the navy away from the ship long enough for you to get the crew out of jail and aboard it."
"You'd do that for me?"
"Kaitlin, when you have a child of your own, you'll understand that a parent will do anything for their kid." Will gave Kaitlin a hug and helped her stand up. "Tomorrow night, okay Dad?"
"That's our only option."
