(A/N) One more!
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC!
"Doctor Coulten, please open the door!" Eve pounded on the doctor's door.
"What is the meaning of this?" He opened the door in his robe. "Mrs. Johnson? What are you…oh my, is it Colette?"
"Yes and no…I need some of her medication please."
"Come in, although I don't quite understand." Eve stepped through the door.
"My children are missing and I have to find them."
"Mrs. Johnson, as a woman in your condition…"
"I don't care about my condition. I care about my children. This whole ordeal could kill Colette, please, if you have the medicine, I need to be going." Eve was anxious, she barely had ten minutes to get the medicine and get to the ship.
"Alright, here." He handed her a bottle of pills. It allowed Colette's heart to function normally.
"Thank you." Eve quickly stuffed the bottle in her bag and ran out of the doctor's house. She ran full speed to the dock's. All she could think about was her children, all of them in so much danger…but why? Who could have done this?
She was almost to the docks when she rounded a corner and someone grabbed her from behind. Eve screamed, and struggled. He clamped a hand over her mouth.
"What are you thinking?" Gabriel turned her around.
"Gabriel, what were you thinking? I could have hurt you!" Eve was out of breath.
"I told you I would go with you. I told you to stay put."
"Gabriel, I am not a child. My children are missing, I need to find them."
"No Evelyn, our children are missing, and we are going to find them." Gabriel then let out a hiss of pain. "You obviously didn't read that letter."
"No, you told me not to."
"Well, at least you listen sometimes." Eve folded her arms across her chest. "I have one of the ships ready to go. Where did you plan on going?" Gabriel couldn't wait for this answer.
"The Caribbean. Tortuga in particular. Although pirating is vastly wiped out…there are still those who sail…"
"And how do you know this was a pirate?" Gabriel asked.
"It's in my gut…I feel something wrong…and my answers will be waiting in Tortuga." Eve then looked at him. "I'm sorry I decided to leave…but I can't wait anymore."
"Then let's go." Gabriel took her hand and started walking down the docks, to the Raider, it was Gabriel's largest ship.
He opened the door to their cabin and walked in. Eve closed the door behind her, and looked at him, he was in pain, and she knew it.
"Lie down." Eve said.
"I'm fine." Gabriel was being stubborn.
"Please." Gabriel turned around to see Eve standing with her hands on her hips. Gabriel lied down on the bed his face on the pillows. "Where are the bandages?"
"In the cabinet there…" Gabriel pointed. Eve walked to the cabinet and pulled out some bandages and got him some pain pills.
"Alright, take these…" Eve put two pills in his mouth and tipped a glass of water to his lips. "I'll rewrap you bandages…" Eve peeled off his jacket, which was soaked with blood, and began removing the equally saturated bandages off his back. She looked at his back and nearly fall apart, she was close to losing him.
When she was done felt his forehead, he had a fever, which meant an infection. "I have to get you on your back." Eve said to him. "I promise I'll be careful…" Eve then flipped him over. As she laid him on his back, he grabbed her hand, with his other he wrapped it around her waist.
"No, it's my turn to take care of you…" Eve said, trying hard not to cry. She took a clean towel and dipped it into the cold water and placed it over his forehead. His body was shaking from the fever, and she knew it was bad, so she stripped off his boots, left his shirt off, took off his pants and put a light sheet over him. She then went to the windows and opened them, he needed his body temperature to lower. Eve went back to the bed, sat on the edge and pulled his body so that way his back was to the window, the salt air would heal, it healed almost anything, Eve thought. She held his body close to hers keeping the cool towel over his forehead. She was scared, her husband was ill, and her children were missing, not to mention, that Jack, and her parents were gone as well…everything fell apart awfully fast.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
"Who was she Jack?" Will asked angrily. "If I am right…we…I don't even know what to think."
Jack looked down at Colette who was sleeping in his arms. "She is the woman Jon had an affair with. After Eve and Gabriel had killed Jon, I sent her money, so she could care for my grandson…"
Will's face became enraged, but it was Elizabeth who spoke. "Does Eve know anything about this?"
"No."
"You betrayed her! All these years, you were sending her money, and know look what she's done…got herself a ship and a crew, and we are stuck in here, with our grandchildren." Will said upset, rightfully so.
"Will, he is my grandson, my only legitimate one." Jack said equally as angrily.
"Wrong. Eve's children are your grandchildren. Henry, and Adam do not call you grandfather, like Eve's children!" Will was furious.
"But he is mine! Am I supposed to abandon him?"
"Is it that Jack or do you feel guilty about Jon? How the boy is growing up without a father? Have you even seen him?" Elizabeth asked the probing questions.
"The boy is without a father, and yes, I feel bad for him. And yes, I have seen him, on one of the trips I went on, I met him, and he knows me." Jack said nonchalantly.
"I hope you can explain to Eve, what you did…" Will said utterly disgusted.
"She'll understand."
"Will she? You betrayed her, that simple, and because of your actions, you are holding her daughter, who without her medication could die, I hope you think about that Jack, because I certainly won't forgive you for this." Will said finally.
"Where is this from Will?" Jack was angry. "You didn't speak with Eve for years after she married Jon, you couldn't even be in the same room. Do not speak to me about betrayal. You are no better than I am…"
"Well, you know what Jack…" Will stopped when Colette started wheezing. Jack looked at the beautiful girl, that looked so much like Eve. He laid her down and tried to shake her. "Colette? Wake up!" Jack was going frantic.
"Move Jack!" Elizabeth slid across the floor and placed her hand on her granddaughter's chest. "Colette, open your eyes…there you go, no watch me…" Elizabeth moved her hand up and down. "Concentrate Colette, I need you to breath the same way my hand is moving." Elizabeth kept a firm hand on the child's chest. "There you go…just follow it…your mommy does this when you feel like this right?" Elizabeth asked.
Colette just nodded.
"I know. So just breath darling…see you feel better, right?"
"Yes…" She whispered. Elizabeth looked to see that everyone was up, including the children.
"Okay, would you like to sleep with grandma? I have a big skirt, I'll be able to wrap you in." Elizabeth then picked the girl up and placed her on her lap, and took the extra fabric from her skirt and wrapped it around her.
"Now, if the both of you would please shut up, for the rest of this…" Elizabeth grumbled. "I don't want what you say to do this to her again. Do you hear me?" Elizabeth raised her brow, waiting for a response from both of them. When she got a nod from each of them she cradled the little girl in her arms. She looked to her other grandchildren who looked very frightened.
"You can sit by me if you want. Gabe, Joshua, Jack? Come on." The three boys crawled over to their grandmother and tucked really close to her.
(A/N) I got a question about Will and Elizabeth's age. Probably a bit younger than sixty, and Jack, he is around seventy, but Captain Jack is immortal right? Or was that immoral.
