"Yes. If she's happy then I want her to stay that way. Commodore, that's what true love is. What you are feeling is lust and jealousy. Love is neither of those. I'll be waiting for your return to the ship so we can go home." That said George walked off and out of Araina's life forever. This left the others grateful and yet, confused about Norrington. They looked at him expectantly waiting for a clarification.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~****************~~~~~~~~~~~~~~****************~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~
Norrington sputtered indigently. "Well, he obviously didn't love you enough then. Now, Elizabeth, it's time to go home, away from these pirates." He sneered. The look on Elizabeth's face was one of fury. Then she did something no one expected. She punched him, very hard too.
"Where'd you learn ta do that, love?" Jack asked impressed that she finally learned to defend herself a bit.
"Him." Elizabeth stated as she jerked a thumb as Will, who shrugged. The adults left to let the kids go to Maria's to grab a few things, but they were to be back within the hour. Artemis and Maria went to get the items while Jamison and Apollo went to get some stuff for the voyage they would be taking.

A bit later in a small chapel..... "You may kiss the bride." A confused priest announced. Jack and Araina kissed up at the alter, yes, they eloped.
"You know, this means you're a duke now." Araina whispered to him as they left.
"And you're a pirate." He whispered just as softly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~****************~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~**********~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*
It was later in the evening they were all rejoicing about Jack and Araina, and Apollo and Maria. Smiling at her brother, Artemis was just happy that he was so lucky and joyful. Apollo deserved this if anyone did. She felt a tap on her shoulder and spun around expecting Kirk or someone like that.
"Can we talk?" Jamison requested. Artemis sighed and nodded reluctantly. The two went out on the docks to talk they walked away from them into a small clearing. Jamison cleared his throat a few times attempting to find the right words. He turned away from her to try and regain the ability to speak but was met with a sword pointed at him. Unarmed and unprepared for the attack, Hawk's blade sliced into him. Pain exploded below his rib cage. That was all Jamison remembered before sinking into unconsciousness.
"Jamison!!" cried out Artemis, her voice was breaking. 'I never got to tell him.' Hawk walked over to her.
"Come now, pet, you didn't love him, nor he you, I am your future." He sneered. Hawk grabbed Artemis by the waist. His mouth came down hard on hers, before Hawk knew it though Artemis bit his tongue and it was bleeding quite a bit. "Pirate bitch!" he gasped, pulling away.
"You say that like it's a bad thing." smirked Artemis. Her sword was in the position to fight.
"A fight for your freedom then," Hawk stated getting ready. "You win, you go. I win, you come with me, or me with you on the Pearl." She accepted.
30 minutes later, the fight was still going strong. Artemis kept her eyes on the sword stained with Jamison's blood. Rage filled her over and over. Another 30 minutes passed. She was exhausted. Hawk was much stronger than she remembered. As she fell to the ground she could see Hawk standing over her and remembered the recurring dreams of him winning. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*
Artemis awoke on a ship to find herself in the large room she now shared with her husband. Sighing, she got dressed and went up to the deck to see what was going on today. The hideout, or a new location? She waved and grinned to the man steering the ship. Apollo had filled out since last year. He now longer had the narrowness of boyhood but was a full grown man. Maria ran up to her.
"I'm pregnant." She whispered. "Congratulations." Artemis smiled hugging her. Everyone on the Pearl got used to Artemis having this husband, as did she. They made a cute couple so there was no awkwardness about it. She sat on the railing. A pair of strong muscular arms embraced her with fiery warmth. Artemis gazed up into the chocolate brown eyes of Jamison Turner. He was a good head taller than her. Bending down he gave her a peck on the lips. "Have I told you how much I love you?" he whispered.
"Not since last night." She said laughing and throwing her arms around him.
"GO TO A ROOM!" shouted Apollo. The two just grinned at him as he put his arm around Maria's waist. Jack and Araina were off in Araina's manor attending to a few things and the kids along with Elizabeth and Will were going to get them today, or as soon as they could. Jack was about to go crazy being there. But rest assured he had plenty of rum. The lot of them remained unchanged. With the exception of Will's appearance, a long scar now marred his perfect facial features. He got that from dueling with Norrington one last time over Elizabeth. It had been a while since that night; it was the same night when Artemis almost lost to Hawk. Jamison jumped up at the last minute, saving her. A thing she didn't take to lightly. Artemis was the independent type, but none of that mattered when Jamison collapsed again, she had been too worried to care.
The scars of the past had been buried for the group of eight people, all adults now. But nothing really lasts forever does it?

That's kind of confusing isn't it? Well, love it or hate it it's over. I'm pretty sure. **grins** Sequel? Good idea? Yes, no? Tell in a review. Until next time,
