(A/N) One more! Karen I miss you girl! (Your name has been mentioned in my book!)

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC!

Elizabeth sat on the beach overlooking the busy harbor. She felt so empty, that everything she ever knew about her father and mother had been a lie. Everything she believed in was a lie…she just felt empty.

"Elizabeth?" Will was walking up the beach and plopped down next to her. "I'm sorry."

"Who told you?" Elizabeth said as she wiped tears from her eyes. "The dashing Commodore, or my arrogant father?"

"The dashing Commodore…" That made Elizabeth smile. "What do you need me to do?" Elizabeth said nothing and leaned into him. Will held her tightly and kissed the top of her head.

"I want the truth Will."

"I know."

"You told me once that there wasn't anything that you wouldn't do for me." Elizabeth said looking into his rich brown eyes.

"Yes…what are you getting at?"

"I want to leave Port Royal, I want to find my father."

"James said he would find the name." Will offered.

"No, he can't know I'm leaving. I want you to come with me." Elizabeth said looking into his eyes for any sign of hesitation.

"Of course. How are we going to find his name?" She didn't see any hesitation whatsoever.

"Mister Danton. He has to know." Elizabeth then looked into the harbor. "Everything is just so lost Will, everything is wrong…I feel so empty, and I feel so alone."

"Your not alone. I'm here." Will then kissed her. "Come on." Will pulled her to her feet. "Let's pay a visit to Mister Danton."

"Elizabeth what can I do for you?" Mister Danton asked as she and Will strolled into his office.

"I want to know my father's name." The question caught him off guard.

"I'm sorry?"

"You heard me. I want to know the name of my real father. I want to know some type of truth mister Danton. I am tired of lies, please, give me his name."

"Elizabeth, your father never wanted you to know."

"Why?" Elizabeth sat down across from Danton, Will stood behind her, a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"Because your father is not a well loved man. Because he gave you to…mister Swann, under certain conditions."

"What were those conditions?"

"That you were safe and well cared for. In exchange mister Swann would dismiss charges against your real father."

"Charges? He is a criminal?"

"He is a pirate." Danton then looked at her straight in the eyes. "Your father gave you up, with the knowledge that you would never know his name."

"I want his name." Elizabeth said. Danton got up and pulled out a drawer, and pulled out a file.

"This is every single legal document concerning your adoption. Take it, and do what you wish. I wish you luck Elizabeth."

Elizabeth took the file. "Thank you." Will and Elizabeth then went back to the smithy, barely saying a word.

"Are you sure you still want to read it?" Will said as Elizabeth sat down looking at the file.

"I don't know. Christ, Will, my father could already be dead, hanged by the laws…he is a pirate…I am a pirate…I…" Elizabeth was unsure of herself.

"It's not so bad."

"My life has been a lie." Elizabeth then flipped open the file and began reading. Will watched her eyes go from left to right. She then stopped, putting a hand over her mouth.

"What does it say?" Will asked.

"I can't believe it."

"Believe what?"

"My father."

"Well who is he Elizabeth?" Will asked as he took her hands.

"Jack Sparrow." Elizabeth then closed her eyes. "Jack is my father?" Snapping her eyes open she stared at the paper. "This can't be right. How?"

"Well, there is only one way we can get some straight answers." Will said.

"How?"

"We have to find Jack."

Jack stood over the deck of the Pearl, for the first time things were going right in his life, he had the Pearl, a faithful crew, and he had his rum… Bill Turner's son had been an instrumental part in helping get his beloved Pearl back, and so had Elizabeth…

Could Elizabeth be his daughter? The daughter he unwillingly let go twenty years ago. She had the same name, and Christ she looked exactly like his mother. Had the same traits he had himself. Did he give his daughter to a Governor? At the time he was only a judge, Jack needed a break, facing the noose, so he handed his only child over to…Jack shook the memories from his head, it was too hard.

But she was enchanting…she was familiar…was she his daughter…'How many bloody Elizabeth's are there? I can't even remember…what was his name?' Jack's mind racked. He tried to remember the judge's name, tried to remember a face…but couldn't. Foolish thoughts.

"Captain, the crew wants to know if we are staying the night?" Gibbs asked his Captain.

"Yes, a few nights. We all need some rest." Just before Gibbs left, however, Jack stopped him. "Gibbs, can I ask you something?" Startled by Jack's sensitivity, Gibbs turned around.

"Sure."

"Not here." Jack then motioned him to follow him into his cabin.

"What's the problem Captain?"

"You remember Elizabeth right?"

"How could I not? I accompanied the girl on her crossing from England. Full of spirit, full of life she is."

"Does she remind you of anyone?" Gibbs eyes then rolled in the back of his head in thought. Then he turned his head down and stared at Jack. Jack rolled his hands around his face, pointing to him.

"Well, in some ways you. But that could be from anyone."

"I have never told anyone this Gibbs, and I want it kept to only you. I gave up a daughter some twenty years ago."

"Jack, I didn't know you had a kid." Gibbs said in awe.

"No kidding."

"You think Elizabeth is your daughter?"

"I don't think…I know."
