(A/N) Don't know how many chapters I'm going to give...you know I love cliffy's!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC!

Eve's breathing began to become erratic as they came closer to the chest. She knew what was in store, as she saw the barrels that some of the crew was carrying in. She was going to slit her hand take a coin, and give the rest to Payne, but it would only be her to place them in the barrels. Payne would have no hand in the coins, he would sell them in the open market to some unsuspecting buyer, who then would become cursed.

Eve was taken to the top of the mound of gold, and positioned in front of the chest, while Jon was kept at the bottom waiting.

"Let's get started."

"Wait, I have some conditions."

"And those are?" Payne grew impatient.

"Once all gold is placed in the barrels, you leave me and Jon here without being touched. If you hurt him, I will kill you…"

"Don't worry, I swear on the good Lord himself, that no harm will come to your husband." Eve then extended her hand and Payne shook it.

Eve then took a deep breath as Payne handed her the dagger. Eyeing the piece she was going to take, the one that had a necklace attacked to it, she slit her hand and picked up the coin. Eve clenched it tightly in her hand and nearly fell to the ground. The raw power of it was remarkable, it nearly knocked her to the ground.

"The gold now…" Payne growled. Eve clasped the medallion around her neck and took the coins and started dropping them into the barrels. In time the chest was empty, and Eve glanced down at Jon who was looking at her, fear stricken in his eyes.

"That was it." Eve said her eyes lowered to the chest.

"Good. Now, I bid you adieu." Payne lifted his hat at waved off as he and the remaining members of his crew

Eve turned to Jon and slowly walked down to him, untying his hands. "That's it. Now we have to get the gold back, and return it, along with my blood. By blood begun, by blood undone…right?" Eve said in a nervous giggle.

"Let me see your hand." Jon grabbed her hand and flipped it over, the wound was healed, and the scar disappearing.

"Medical marvel, isn't it?" Eve then turned away. She felt strange as if she wasn't in her own skin. Many things were boiling within her…and that included anger, and for as long as she could help it she would try and stay clear of Jon.

"Eve wait!" Jon called after her.

"Stay away from me." Eve continued walking. Jon managed to catch up with her and grabbed her arm and pulled her close to him.

"We have to stick together. Build a fire, so maybe we can get out of here." Jon looked in her eyes, something had gone cold.

"I'm not doing anything with you." Eve then shoved him and started walking again, this time Jon took hold of her arm and didn't let go.

"Eve, what's…" Eve then grabbed a sword that was on the side of her and held it at him.

"Get away…I don't want to hurt you." Eve was having a struggle that was internal.

"Then put the sword away." Eve then lowered the sword and tossed it to the side.

"Come on, let's wait for them to come get us." Jon took Eve by the shoulders and walked her outside the cave, onto the beaches, and sat her down.

"See we didn't have to wait that long." Jon noted that Will and Elizabeth's ship was on the horizon.

XXXXX

"Their at the Isla de Muerta!" Jack shouted as he spotted Jon waving to them. Jack also noticed Eve sitting behind him, her eyes closed, not moving. "Will look…" Will took the spyglass and saw what Jack had just looked at.

"Lower the boats!" Will said hurriedly. Will, Jack, and William, all started rowing to the island as Elizabeth and Adam watched from the railing of the ship. Elizabeth saw the emotionless expression on Eve's face, and remembered it…

"Eve are you alright?" Elizabeth said as she hugged her daughter.

"I'm fine." Eve said with no tone change. Elizabeth felt her icy glare, looking straight through her. "I'm going to go lie down now." Elizabeth, Will, Jack, Adam, William, and Jon all watched her walk below deck without a word to anyone else.

"What happened?" Will asked Jon.

"Well, Payne wanted Eve to help him look for the diamond, but I knew if we were to do that he would kill us eventually. I thought of something that was close by and give him the fortune he wanted, and keeping him cool about it."

"And that was?" Adam asked.

"Telling him to go after the treasure." Jon said sheepishly.

"How would he do that without…" Will then stopped. "She didn't…"

"I thought that we could just get the treasure after, she could return her blood, and be done with it." Will then sat down and ran his hand through his hair.

"My God…" Elizabeth said as she placed a hand on her chest. "She is cursed…we need to…"

"Is she alone?" Jack asked. Jon quickly got up and ran downstairs and started searching the rooms. He opened one and saw Eve asleep on the bed. Walking closer, he saw the medallion on her neck, and reached for it. He placed his hands around her neck and started to unclasp it, when Eve started to open her eyes, Jon kissed her to keep her from noticing what he was doing.

"What are you doing?" Eve asked.

"Nothing." Jon then took the medallion and put it in his back pocket.

"Your lying…" Eve said angrily.

"No I'm not." Eve then reached up to her neck, and realized the medallion was gone.

"Where is it?"

"What are you talking about?" Jon then started to pull up, but Eve grabbed his shirt and pulled him back down.

"Give it back." Eve's voice was menacing.

"No." Jon then grabbed her arm and pulled it off his shirt and started for the door. Eve got off the bed and pushed him into the door. Jon turned around and held her wrists.

"Give it back!" Eve was screaming. Jon pushed her back to the wall and held her there, hoping someone would help him. Soon enough, William, Will, and Jack all came in, pulling Jon out of the room, and shutting the door, sealing him off.

"I need to get back in there." Jon said.

"No you don't." Elizabeth said behind him. "She is not the same person, you need to let them handle it."

"She is my wife Elizabeth!" Jon then went right back in the room.

"All of you stay away from me!" Eve shouted as she was cornered in the room.

"Listen luv, you need to calm down!" Jack said trying to calm herself.

"Give me the bloody medallion!" Eve shouted. Will thought back to Elizabeth, and what she went through.

"Eve, darling, it's your father…I know you can fight this, you are so strong…" Will walked further towards her. Eve's eyes traveled around, she then saw Jon, and knew he had the medallion, all she knew was she had to have it.

"I'm so sorry daddy…" Will looked at her curiously. Eve quickly stepped to the side of him and grabbed his sword. "Now, if I don't get that medallion, I will kill you." Eve then looked at Jon.

"I will kill you all." Jon then reached in his pocket and pulled out the medallion, and held it out. Eve grabbed it and wrapped it around her wrist. "Stay away from me…" Eve then ran out the door and out on deck. She looked over the edge of the railing.

"Eve don't!" Elizabeth shouted.

"Don't what?" Eve asked with a sadistic smile.

"I know what your thinking…just step away from the railing…" Now Will, Jon, Jack, William, and Adam joined Elizabeth on deck.

"Eve, just step away…" Jon pleaded. Eve smiled, she dropped the sword and clasped the necklace around her neck.

"You all want to save me?" Eve then let out a laugh. "I died a long time ago…" Tears then fell from her eyes.

"Eve, all you have to do is grab my hand…" Jon stepped really close to her. "Grab my hand and it's all over."

"No." Eve then gripped the railing and closed her eyes. "I don't want to hold on…" Eve then let go of the railing and fell over, into the ocean.

(A/N) Oh I could leave you hanging here...but I'm not THAT cruel!
