chapter twelve: Plotting against love

"That's her. Miss Viola Cabbot. Lovely isn't she?" the man said looking at the woman entering a tavern. Jack nodded with a grinn. He placed three godlen coins in the guy's hand for the information.

"Thanks mate." he said as he walked towards the tavern himself. He went straight to the bar when the woman wasn't in sight. She must have rented a room.

"Escuse me mate." he said to the bartender. The man looked up at him.

"My wife was just in here to get us a room. The name is Cabbot." he lied.

"Up the stairs, second room on your right." Jack nodded and walked up the stairs in the directions the bartender had given him.

"Who is it?" Viola asked as someone knocked on her door. As soon as she opened Jack quicly entered the room draggin her inside as well. Viola shrieked in surprise as Jack locked the door again.

"Leave me alone!" she yelled.

"Don't worry yer pretty little head luv. I'm not here for you. You're just taking me to Lynn." Viola grinned in recognision.

"Right, you're Jack Sparrow. I had expected you sooner. Didn't know Elizabeth had it in her to keep up her charade so long. But are you sure you want her back darling? She is a married woman now you know." Jack launched at the woman wanting to strangle the air out of her.

"Darling...do I have to remind you that you need me?" Viola said calmly. Jack let go of her and just glared daggers at the woman.

"She was forced to marry that son of a bitch." Viola nodded.

"I know, but one might still consider her damaged goods." Jack was fuming at this comment.

"In that case one might consider you completly broken!" he spat back at the woman. Viola just grinned.

"You don't really get the concept of sucking up to people you want to help you do you?" she grinned as she walked over to the bed and sat down on the side. She took a flask from the nightstand and took a sip from it.

"Drinking might not be something a woman in your possition should be doing miss Cabbot." Jack stated as he watched the woman drink the alcoholic liquid.

"My possition?" she asked with a playfull smile.

"You're pregnancy."

"You've done your research well mr Sparrow. As for the drinking...I'll be taking care of him after the pregnancy, right now I have to take care of myself. And I need a drink. Do you have a problem with that?" Jack shook his head. Viola finished her drink and looked up at the pirate. "Now, let's get to buisiness shall we. What can I do for you mr Sparrow."

"It's captain! And you're going to take me to Lynn."

"Yes, I got that part. What's in it for me?"

"Nathan allready has the title, and the fortune. Why do you think he hasn't gotten rid of Lynn yet?" He grinned as he noticed the woman was getting uncomfortable. "Don't you think it's strange that he didn't let you come along at first? It's obvious. He loves Lynn. The only reason he send for you is because the child you carry is his." Jack looked at the woman sitting on the bed. She was clearly struggling inside. Trying to convince herself that what Jack had said wasn't true.

"Why should I believe you?" she yelled as she attacked him. Trying to him him. Jack caught her wrists and looked down at her.

"Don't fool yourself...you know I'm telling you the truth!" Sighing the woman stopped her attacks.

"What do you suggest we do?" Jack grinned.

"Well..."

Lynn was sitting with the letter tightly in her hands. Her mother had indeed left her proof that she wasn't Henry's daughter. She was the daughter of a pirate. A child born from the love two people shared for each other in stead of a convenient match. A mutual agreement. This paper could save her, but it could also kill her. The map her mother had lept her was allreaddy carefully hidden away.

"Viola should be arriving in about three hours." Nathan stated as he walked into the bedroom. "Did you and Kessy catch up?"

"Yes." Lynn said softly.

"I could've just send her away." she felt him climb onto the bed and crawling over to her. "Don't I get a thank you?" Lynn grimaced. Nathan placed his hand against her cheek as he forced his lips against hers. He was allready trying to force her back againt the matrass when...

"NATHAN?" a familiar vioce yelled. He sat up in shock. Looking down at Lynn once more before getting of off her and darting down the stairs to meet with his 'beloved' Viola. Sighing in releave Lynn sat up on the bed. She felt releaved knowing that now Viola was here Nathan wouldn't have much time for her. Suddenly she heard the door open again.

"Hello?" she asked...the thick carpet kept her from recognizing any footsteps. "Nathan? Shouldn't you be with Viola." Lynn asked scooting away from him

"I'm exactly where I should be...luv." She gasped when she recognized that voice. Several tears ran down her cheek.

"No...you can't be really here. It's not real." she cried trying to convince herself. She gasped as she felt two strong arms holding her. She reached out to him and touched the side of his face.

"Jack?" she said softly. He pulled her closer and kissed her forhead, so gently.

"I've missed you luv." he whispered in her ear. A soft sob escaped Lynn's lips.

"I thought you wouldn't come. I was affraid you'd hate me for marrying Nathan."

"It wasn't your choice. I know. Don't ever think I won't come for you luv." Lynn smiled as she allowed herself to enjoy the moment.

"Would you be so kind to step away from my wife Sparrow?" Lynn gasped at the sound of Nathan's voice.

"She's not you're wife mcPherson." Jack grinned as he pulled a piece of paper out of his coat. "According to this little paper here, you are married to a miss Viola Cabbot." Nathan glared at the paper. The document was real.

"That means you're marriage to Lynn was never legitimate." Lynn felt Jack take her hand in his.

"So we'll be leaving now."

"This isn't true!" Nathan turned to Viola. "We were never married!"

"Yes, we were darling, we were drunk that night. I had forgotten as well." the woman lied. They were never married. But Jack didn'thave any trouble buying the lie from a corrupt priest, who didn't say no to bribes.

"You are not leaving with my wife!"

"I wasn't planning on it mate. You can keep your wife! I'll just take Lynn."

"I'm not letting you get away with this!" Nathan shouted as he drew his sword. Suddenly his eyes rolled back and he landed on the floor with a loud thud. Viola grinned at Jack.

"It was nice doing buisiness with you darling." she said revealing a small bottle with a green potion in it. Viola turned to Lynn and softy placed her finger against the girls cracked lip.

"I'm sorry for what he did to you...I'm sorry I let him." Lynn was in a state of shock. What had just happened? Had Viola really helped her and Jack? Jack tightened his grip on her hand to let her know he was still there.

"We should get going luv, don't wanna be around when he wakes up."

"I'll keep him from going after you two...Just go!" Jack pulled Lynn along who didn't move.

"My mother's portrait!" she said pointing at the little painting on the nightstand. Jack quickly grabbed it and together with Lynn he ran out of the house. He helped her in the carriage in wich he and Viola came and together they left the estate. Inside the carriage Lynn finaly managed to sleep peacefully.

Nathan slept for thirteen hours non-stop. When he woke up Viola was looking down at him.

"You stupid WENCH! You helped him!" Viola just grinned.

"At least I notice things. Like when you left...with her. To go here. I did some research. Guess what I came up with?" Nathan glared daggers at the woman.

"I don't give a damn! I'm going after her."

"Sweetheart, hear me out first." Viola said calmly. She reached for a piece of paper laying on the nightstand. "When you were gone, I got bored. So I decided to do some research about your little friend." She handed Nathan a piece of paper. His eyes scanned the writing on it.

"Henry's not her father." Viola grinned pleased.

"That means she's not a duchess. And as if that wasn't interesting enough. I happen to come across a letter from her mother when you were asleep. I think you'll find it very interesting." Viola watched as Nathan read the letter.

Nathan grinned.

"I'll let them find it. And then I'll take it." Viola grinned.

"Perfect payback to that pirate." Nathan turned to her.

"Speaking of payback..." he grinned. "I can't marry Lynn when I'm allready married. I don't know how you set it up my darling, but I'm not letting you keep me away from the woman I love." before the woman could figure out what he meant he had taked his gun from the nightstand and shot her. The sheets turned red as blood poured out of her. He grinned at her lifeless form. Not even caring about his child. All he thought about was how he was going to get back Lynn and kill the pirate!
