Lynn gives birth to a little girl. Jack escaped with help from Elizabeth. And thanks to Elizabeth and Lynn's midwife get the little girl to Jack. But now to get Lynn...
We also find out a little about Jack's origin. Captain Morgan used to abuse his sister and that's who Jack was born. In order not to shame the family he made Jack's mom claim George Sparrow was Jack's father.
Chapter thirty: Truth be told
Jack was laying on a narrow bed in a small room. He supported his weight on one arm as he looked down at the little girl beside him. His daughter. He couldn't help but smile as the girl squeezed his finger in her small hand.
"Ye got quiet a grip on ye don't ye. Ye got that from yer old man." The girl gurgled a little and drooled a little on the pillow. Jack chuckled as he whiped the girls face. "And that ye got from yer mum. Drooling over captain Jack Sparrow." He gently rubbed the girls tummy trying to get her to go asleep when someone knocked on the door. He got up and after making sure the baby was allright he went to open the door.
"Who is it?"
"...Jack?" Jack's eyes widened in shock as he jerked the door open.
"Lynn? But...how?" Lynn smiled as she entered the room and flung her arms around Jack's neck. Smiling she pressed her lips against Jack's.
"I've missed you so much." She cried burrying her face in Jack's shoulder. Jack was dumbfound. When did things suddenly start working out. Had he missed something? What the hell was going on.
"How did you escape."
"Who said she needed to escape." Jack looked up at the man in the doorway and froze.
"What are you doing here."
"Jack." Lynn tried to calm Jack as she invited George inside.
"There's no time to explain son. Just get the baby and leave. Nathan is expecting Lynn tomorrow and when she won't show up he'll come looking for her. She'll explain everything on your way. There's an old run down cabin near the ocean. You can stay there and I'll send a message to the Pearl telling them they're free to come for you."
"Why should I believe you?" Jack asked as he stepped in front of Lynn, blocking her from his father's reach.
"You can believe him Jack. He and I talked. I'll explain later. We need to leave." There was a soft cry heard and Lynn immediately hurried to her daughters side.
"Ssssh, there, there mommy's here now sweety." She wrapped the sheet around the little girl and picked her up hugging the newborn to her chest.
"I brought you these for the baby." George said handing Jack a bag filled with baby clothes. "I got them for her before I knew I wasn't..."
"What?" Jack asked.
"Never mind. Just remember, as soon as it's safe. I would like to get to know my grandchild...and my son." Jack nodded, but his face was still stearn.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. Now hurry. There's a map with directions in there as well."
"Let's go then."
"Wait...Aunt Rachel needs to know we're safe." Lynn stated.
"I'll send her a message." George promised.
"Come on love, time to go."
"Do you think it could be a trap?" Will asked as he wrapped his arm around Anna's waist. The navy ship was getting closer.
"I don't know. Not according to the flag they're running."
"Perhaps it's Jack." Anna nudged her husband in his side.
"Don't do that." She stated.
"Do what?"
"Get my hopes up. It's not very likely Jack and Lynn are still..." she couldn't say any more. Will sighed as he tightened his grip on her. Finally the ship was close enough and Anna gave their captain permission to come aboard the Pearl.
"What brings you here captain?" she asked crossing her arms over her chest and trying her best to make herself look dangerous.
"I have a message from commodore Sparrow. It concerns your captain."
"Is Jack alive?" Will immediately interferred.
"It's all in this letter sir." The captain handed Anna the letter from George and then returned to his ship.
"What does it say?" Will asked impatiently after watching Lynn's eyes skim over the paper for a couple of seconds.
"Their both alive." Anna smiled. "We can go pick them up. There's a map here leading to where they are and the navy has orders not to cause us any trouble." Will smiled.
"That's great."
"And there's something else."
"What?"
"It's a girl. They named her Franchesca Paige Sparrow."
"Jack? Did you see anything on the horizon yet?" Lynn asked as she was nurturing Frankie. Jack looked up, but after finding out the truth about his parents he hadn't been himself.
"No...it shouldn't take much longer though."
"Can you hold Frankie for a while? I need to get started on dinner." Jack nodded as he took the little girl from her mothers arm. The baby chuckled a little as she pulled on of the braids dangling from her father's chin. Jack smiled at the little girl.
"I bet you'll be glad to be back at the Pearl." Lynn smiled. "I know I will. I love the Pearl. I feel so safe there." Jack smiled and nodded.
"I'll be happy once I have Morgan at the end of my sword." Lynn sighed.
"Jack, please. Can't you just forget about Morgan for a second and enjoy your daughter...and me." Jack looked up at her with a broad grinn on his face.
"What did you have in mind." He winked suggestively. Lynn smiled. "What's that I hear...baby, bedtime?" Lynn chuckled, Jack talking baby-talk still sounded weird to her. He brought the little girl to her crib and turned his attention to Lynn standing at the counter.
"I still can't believe everything you told me. If I hadn't seen the change in my fa...George myself."
"Now that he knows it's not your fault...Maybe he can be a real father for you. And a grandfather for Frankie. She deserves a big family."
"Is that a hint?" Jack grinned as he snaked his arms around Lynn's waist and pulled her closely against him. With a grinn on his face he leaned in closing the distance between them...
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"NOT NOW!" Jack whined as he felt Lynn breaking away from him.
"Nobody know's we're here Jack. Who could it be?"
"It's your aunt Rachel open up!" Lynn smiled as she ran to the door and opened it.
"Aunt Rachel, what...how?" Lynn offered the woman some thee and listened to how the woman made George tell her where they were.
"Mr. and Mrs. Turner contacted me. They are waiting for you in Port. We'll go there tonight so nobody will notice."
"We?"
"Well I can't very well stay here? I'd be send to jail for assisting fugetives." Lynn smiled.
"You can come with us! Right Jack. You'll love the Pearl." Reluctantly Jack nodded.
"I'll prepare the sofa."
"Oh dear, I don't want to chase you from your own bedroom. You can stay in your room and I'll just share with Lynn."
Jack grimaced...Guess he could kiss his night with Lynn goodbye.
"The Pearl has returned captain. So I guess now we just wait for Sparrow to show." Captain Morgan.
"Right. Time for a little...family reunion."
A/n: Yep, theatrevixen13 is the winner of the name contest. I think it's perfect for a girl who will probably grow to have her father's ego and her mother's wit.
