Several days later
Eve was not allowed alone in her cell, now a guard was posted outside her cell. So the fact that she had sat in that damned cell day in and day out for almost three weeks, was starting to weigh on her mind. She felt frustrated and tired, and knew that the end was near, she had heard a few days ago that they were close to the 'drop off' point, and figured today was the day, today she would plunge into the icy cold waters and die…her and her children. But something kept her sane, at least she would no longer have to suffer the loss of her children, she would be dead, with them, and her son…but there was Gabriel, she didn't want to leave him, she wanted to tell him she loved him, that she loved him more than she ever loved anyone, he was going to lose everything, his wife and children, she wouldn't think about his pain, it only broke her heart.
"It's time." Anthony said to her as he held out her bonds. Lange was beside him.
Eve was looking down on her wedding rings. "Can I have a minute?"
"You've had plenty." Anthony stepped inside the cell and tied her hands behind her back. He then held her by her shoulders, and began to lead her on deck. The air was cold, so cold that Eve could see her breath. Her body began to shake as her bare feet his the frozen deck. So cold her feet stuck to the deck.
They brought her closer to the plank. Eve peered down at the water, it even looked cold.

"That's it!" Gabriel shouted. "Open fire!"
"Gabriel, you could kill her!" Jack shouted.
"They are anchored, and they have their plank out, what do you think he plans on doing with her!" Jack stood back, letting Gabriel take the reins, he knew what he was doing, he just hoped Gabriel wasn't too smart for his own good.

The ship shuttered under the first booming attack. The deck began to scramble as the crew took their posts. Eve wiggled from Anthony's grasp and ducked as a cannon flew through the air. Eve watched as Gabriel's ship came along it's side. The crew began to form a protective circle around Anthony, Lange, and Eve, as Gabriel, Will, Jack, Adam, Elizabeth and the crew boarded the ship.
"Hand her over…" Gabriel said with his pistol drawn.
"Do you think we went his far to come away with nothing?" Anthony sneered.
"She is going to die Gabriel, just live with it…we have lived with it." The doctor bent down and tied Eve's ankle to a pair of metal balls. "She is going to drown…" The doctor looked in Eve's eyes…crazed.
"No one needs to die today Doctor Lange! It's your choice!" Gabriel threatened. "Let her go, and you live…"
"She watched them die and did nothing." Anthony took her by the shoulders and lead her to the plank. "I am so sorry…" Anthony whispered as he pushed Eve over the edge of the ship. Eve let out a scream before she fell into the water.
"No!" Gabriel ran forward but was stopped by Anthony's crew. The crew's began fighting.
"She's gone Gabriel!" Doctor Lange shouted. Gabriel tried running to the side of the ship, but was stopped by a member of the crew.
"Let me pass…" The crew member only shook his head and swung his sword quickly down Gabriel's side. Gabriel spun out of the way and kicked the sword out of the man's hand. Gabriel took his sword and plunged it into the man's chest.
Gabriel fought to get to the side of the ship and succeeded, he pulled off his holster and jumped over the side.

The icy waters had a numbing effect on Eve as she floated down. The water was shallow, so she floated only a few yards before she hit the rocks. She pulled up as she tried to get her ropes free. Growing tired and running out of saved breath she stopped struggling, she excepted her fate, she grew still... She heard a splash above her, but didn't look, she was too tired. With her eyes barely open she saw Gabriel swim down to her. His eyes looked fearful. He took the sides of her face and brought his lips to hers and breathed air into her lungs. He then swam behind her and took off the ropes. With her hands free she bent down and tried to help Gabriel with the weights, they were anchoring her down. Gabriel couldn't move her.
Eve could see the struggle on his face, hope was fleeting and she knew it. Yanking and pulling she knew that he was running out of air, as was she.
He knew he needed a key, but Eve couldn't stay down here much longer, she would either run out of oxygen, or freeze to death.
Eve thought of her grandfather…how he died, and how she was going to…'I can't die…not like this…' Eve began to feverishly start pulling at the weights. She saw Gabriel go up to the surface.
Gabriel was beginning to lose his breath himself, he needed to get to the surface. Swimming upward he gasped for air. Jack shouted down to him.
"Where is she?"
"I can't move her, the weights…" Before anyone knew it Will jumped into the water. Will knew how his father died, he be damned before he let that happen to his daughter. Both men swimming down Will bent down to the weights as Gabriel gave Eve another breath. Will saw her face, her eyes were closed and she wasn't moving, she was just set in an eternal peace…her hair feathering behind her…her pale skin contrasting to the vast, dark ocean waters.
Will tapped on Gabriel's foot and both began to pull her up. As they came to the surface they expected Eve to be gasping for air but she wasn't.
"Throw down a rope!" Jack threw a rope, and by looking at her, her pale face and icy blue lips…he thought they were too late.
"Tie it around her…" Will said through chattering teeth. Gabriel took his numb fingers and wrapped it around Eve's limp body.
(A/N) Uh, oh...has Captain Cupcake been a bad girl...I could have been...or maybe not...hehe...you'll just have to tune in to find out!
"Watch out for the Sprinkles Captain!" Karen Kangeroo warned her Captain.
"I can see the damned spri..." Captain Cupcake slipped on the sprinkled, her legs flaying behind her, she fell right on her butt.
"Told ya..."
