(A/N) I lied, if I left you hanging on that chapter, you'd kill me! Last one for sure!
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC!
"Eve!" Elizabeth spotted her daughter from afar and ran towards her and hugged her.
"Mother I missed you!" Eve began to cry when she was completely covered by her family.
"Son…" Jack stood quietly next to his son before he quietly gave him a hug.
"How did you two escape?" Will asked them.
"Gillette, his son, got us out." Jon told him.
"We need to get out of here…" Adam suggested, "Covington is here, and it won't be long before he finds us all."
A shot then rang through the air. "I don't think that will be happening…" Covington and a large group of marines surrounded them and had their pistols drawn. "I want the men separated from the women. Now!" He ordered loudly. None of them were going to go without a fight. Withdrawing their swords clanging and crashing were shaking through the air.
Eve caught Covington watching her and made her way towards him. "Why won't you leave us alone? I understand you're a bit sour at my mother, but don't you think your wasting your time?" Eve said as she walked around him
"No…" Covington brought his sword down and Eve blocked it. "I will see you die by the end of this day."
"I doubt it." Eve and Covington then went back and forth. Jon was keeping his eye on his new wife as well as trying to keep himself from getting killed. Eve caught a glimpse of Jon and saw the sword cut a red line across his shoulder. Eve panicked and watched as Jon stepped back, she didn't notice Covington lower his sword to her, but she quickly turned and drove her sword through his stomach. Eve quickly turned and ran and kneeled down next to Jon.
"I'm fine…" Eve helped Jon up. Jon went towards Will to help him and Eve went to help her mother.
"Is he ok?" Elizabeth asked as she killed another marine.
"Yes." Eve punched a marine in the face, as she watched the amount of marines dwindle.
"Where's Eve?" Will asked Jon.
"With Elizabeth." Jon shouted back.
"You wench…" Covington struggled to say as he approached Eve and Elizabeth, both turned to face him. "I'm going to kill you…" Covington then weakly raised his pistol and fired sending Eve to the ground. Another shot rang out and Covington fell to the ground a final time, standing behind him, holding the smoking pistol, was Laura.
"Eve…" Elizabeth placed her hands over her daughters stomach, the wound was serious, and Elizabeth knew that. Jon heard the shot but didn't pay it any mind, until he saw William run towards the sound of the shot. When Jon turned around he felt his heart shatter in his chest.
"Eve!" Jon and Will ran to Eve who was losing a lot of blood.
"Will, we need to get her out of here, she's losing a lot of blood." Elizabeth told him. Jon bent down and looked Elizabeth in the eyes, and Elizabeth saw the hurt and fear in his eyes. "William tear off a piece of your shirt." Elizabeth then wrapped it around her daughter's waist. "Jon, pick her up and follow us." Elizabeth spoke to him tenderly, and Jon understood why Eve admired her mother so much.

"Laura I need you to help me…" Elizabeth bustled about the room, "I need to remove that bullet…"
"What do you need me to do?" Jon asked her, as he looked down at his blood stained hands. He carried Eve to the Crusade and set her down on a bed, and sat next to her, keeping pressure on the wound.
Elizabeth sat next to him as Laura walked in carrying a large tray. She took her hands and placed it on her daughter's stomach. "Jon, I need you to go outside and trust me. Will is out there and I think he'll need you, as will your father, Adam, and William. I am trusting you, as I trust you with my daughter." Elizabeth didn't panic, and her voice was steady as she spoke to him, Jon got up and went on deck, where they were all waiting.
At first when Jon stepped outside no one spoke to him, he felt like an outsider. So he pulled out a crate set it next to the door and leaned his back to the wall. Jon sat there and thought about the day, in a single day he became a father and a husband, now all he could think about was the child that Eve carried would die, and that Eve herself may not make it. 'How am I going to move on?' Jon asked himself, with all the love he had, he loved her, and she felt the same, love was rare, he was mature enough to understand that, but the cruelty of fate angered him, and he was in no mood to speak with anyone.
"What happened?" Will said finally, breaking the silence that was an hour old.
"What do you mean?" Jon looked up at him, Will looked like he had the life taken from him.
"Between you and my daughter…" Will was growing impatient as he growled at Jon.
(A/N) Told ya Will would be pissed! Tune in next time for his reaction!
