The answer you've all been waiting for:
Their tiny ship landed at the dock. Jack paid the owner while Cassie stole his coin purse. S stood off to the side
and took off the hood finally. Harry finally got a good look at the man and was shocked to say the least.
"Sirius," he whispered to himself. Yes, it was Sirius. Yet why didn't he tell Harry who he was. He should've
recognized him by now. "Good looking isn't he," Cassie said next to him. "Okay, follow me," Jack said, walking
much differently than usual. They got into a carriage and told the driver to go to the Swann house. "Thank you
sir," Jack said, giving him some coins. The kids gasped at the sheer size of the mansion. "All right now listen.
We're the Smithe family and. I'm James and you can keep your own names." They figured out that the party
was being held around back because that was where voices were coming from. "And what are your names,"
the butler asked. "Just call us the Smithe family," Jack said dignified. "The Smithe family," the man called out as
they walked in.
They tried to mingle with the people. Harry and Cassie just stood off to the corner with S while Jack told
stories and made up a life that they lived. "He's good," Cassie whispered to Harry. When everyone was finally
ready, it was time to sit down. They sat on the groom's side and waited. The mass started and everyone
looked. First the groom walked down. Will was dressed very handsomely; no doubt Elizabeth's father spent a
lot of money making sure it was perfect. Next came a few bridesmaids, each dressed in a cream color. Finally,
Elizabeth came down. Everyone was whispering wonderful complements. The ceremony went without a hitch.
It was finally time for the after party. There was a cello and harp playing off to the side. People were laughing
and drinking and having a wonderful time.
Elizabeth and Will were walking hand in hand on the beach. They wanted a little alone time before they had to
go back to the party. "Oh Will, you have no idea how happy I am," Elizabeth said. "I am as well, Mrs. Turner,"
Will said smirking. Elizabeth gave a small squeal of delight. "If only it was our wedding night now." Only a few
yards away, Cassie and Harry wee sitting in the sand. "How're we going to get back," Cassie asked. "I'm not
sure. What can you do if you arrive through a painting," Harry said shrugging. "And what are the two of you
doing here. You should be enjoying the party," someone said behind them. They turned and it was Will and
Elizabeth. "We could very well be asking you the same question as it is your wedding," Harry said standing up
and wiping excess sand off. Will smiled and nodded his head. "I'm Harry," he said helping Cassie up. "And I'm
Cassie." They each shook hands and so forth. "I don't believe we've met before," Elizabeth said. "Well we
arrived this morning with our father," Cassie said. As if they had heard them, far off they saw someone running
towards them calling their names. It was indeed Jack and S wasn't too far behind. S pointed and they ran right
at them. "Ah yes, hello dear father," Cassie said. "And what may I ask are you doing here," Jack said in a
proper, fatherly way. He had no trace of an accent either. Harry and S snorted and snickered. They looked at
each other quickly before looking away. "We just fancied a walk is all," Harry said. "Have we met before," Will
asked, extending his hand. "We might've, by and by," Jack said shaking it. "His name is James Smithe," Harry
added. "And who might you be sir," Elizabeth asked S. "I am er...Simon. Their bodyguard and old family
friend." "Well we'd better all head back. We're waiting for someone," Will said. "And who might that be," Jack
asked interested. "Oh, an old friend. We invited him and have no idea where he may be. See, I shouldn't be
telling you this, but, he's a pirate and since he's in disguise we haven't seen him yet," Will said. "Is our secret safe
with you," Elizabeth asked worried. "Oh don't worry. He'll show up when you least expect it. Opportunity is in
the eye of the beholder," Jack said wisely. Everyone thought about that for a few seconds and they walked
back.
The rest of the day was spent eating, talking and dancing. "Would you care to dance with me," Jack asked
Elizabeth. She took his hand and they began a spectacular waltz. "Didn't know he was such a good dancer,"
Harry whispered to no one. "Well dancing is like being in a swordfight. You have to move just the right way," S
said. "Can we talk later? I want to ask you something," Harry asked. S nodded but didn't say anything. "So,
master James, where did you live if it's not here and how did you learn of our wedding," Elizabeth asked. "I was
out at sea when a messenger arrived and gave me the invitation," Jack said. "Out at sea? I take it you're a
merchant sailor then," she said. "Not quite," Jack said giving his trademark grin.
Meanwhile Harry took S off to the side to speak with him. "What," S asked. "I wanted to ask you something..."
He trailed off because something caught his attention. He saw a huge ship arriving in the port, but it wasn't the
Pearl. S followed his eyes and looked. The ship had the Jolly Roger hanging off and knew they weren't friendly.
"Should we tell Jack," Harry asked. S nodded and he went to get him while Harry went for Cassie. She was
talking with Will when Harry grabbed her arm. "What's wrong," she asked. "Unfriendly ship at the dock," he
said. Suddenly cannon fire rained upon them. People began to yell and cover their heads. "If only Jack was
here," Will said to no one. "Don't worry. He may be closer than you think mate," a gruff, rough voice said from
behind him. He turned around and it was James/Jack. "I thought it was you," Will said smiling lightly. "Come on,
we all need to take cover," he said. The group of seven ran but was suddenly and rather quickly surrounded.
Harry nodded to Cassie. "Ready," he said. They took out their wands, not noticing the shocked faces from the
others. "What're you doing," Jack asked. "This," Harry said. "Stupefy," they both shouted. The red beams shot
everywhere. Luckily there were no guests left. The adults had their mouths wide open, except for S who had a
questionable look on his face. "We'll explain later. Let's get out of here," Cassie said. Unfortunately the crew
got right up again and grabbed Harry by the neck. As he struggled, the others were grabbed as well. Then all of
a sudden, Harry felt a sharp pain and then darkness surrounded him.
