"JACK HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO HER? SHE'S VERY FRAGILE AT HER LAST MONTH! WHAT KIND OF A MAN GOES WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?" Elizabeth screamed from outside of the room where Ria was in. Jack cringed, he feared many things now, and raging women was one. He started to open his mouth, "DON'T YOU TRY EXPLAINING! SHE COULD DIE JACK. YES, DIE! AND THE LAST THING SHE WOULD'VE SEEN WAS YOU WITH ANOTHER WOMAN!" Elizabeth exploded. Will restrained his fuming wife,
"Jack knows he's done wrong-" he began,
"HE'S COMMITED SOMETHING WORSE THAN DEATH FOR A WOMAN!"
"Hush Elizabeth!" Will said, bringing a finger to her lips. She did, and they heard cries from inside the room.
"Ria!" Elizabeth and Jack said together.
Ria was awake, and clutching her stomach in pain, Jack was immediately at her side. Ria blindly took the knife from under her pillow and stabbed wildly at the bed sheets beside her, missing Jack's arm by an inch. Elizabeth pulled Jack away, and pulled the knife out of Ria's gripping hand, and gave it to Jack. She called for the midwife. "You two had better leave, for your own sake." She said quickly. Jack didn't move, feeling hurt, Will dragged him out of the room and into the study next door.

Jack cringed as he paced, gripping Ria's knife as painful screams came from the other room. Will tried to calm his friend,
"She'll be fine," he told him as Jack made for the door, more screams. Jack turned around and continued to walk back and forward in the middle of the study. Will tried to make Jack think of something else, "So, how's the Black-"
"We'll have to name it." Jack realised, Will tapped Jack on the shoulder, another series of horrifying screams,
"Not it, he, or she." Will told him, Jack nodded.
"Yeah, yeah, he, she'll be a Sparrow… a young Sparrow-" he muttered when-
"I HATE YOU JACK SPARROW!!" he heard from the other room then more screams. Will shook his head, and shut the door, muffling the screams only a little. Jack collapsed into a chair and rubbed his head,
"She's hates me." He sighed, and then, Ria's screams stopped. Jack looked up, a baby's cry, but it sounded stereo, two.

Elizabeth met Jack outside of the room, "Congratulations." She whispered with a small smile. Jack stumbled into the room to find the midwife cleaning up, and Ria holding two small bundles of cloth in bed. Jack walked slowly to her, Ria looked up, she couldn't help but smile. Jack kissed her lovingly
"I hate you Jack Sparrow." She whispered with a smile, Jack stared at the bundles, he picked the closest one up pulling the cloth away from its face. A small wrinkled thing screamed at him, Jack cringed a little, but then the baby stopped crying, and nestled into his arms. "He's our boy Jack," she said softly, her voice was hoarse from screaming, "And this is our little girl." She took her boy and let Jack hold the girl, the girl was quiet, and her eyes opened immediately,
"Hey look luvie," Jack whispered, "she's looking at a me!" Ria smiled. Jack pulled the cloth a little more, and grinned, "She's as beautiful as her mother." He said, patting down the thin patch of black hair.
