A/N Here I am.. so.. ghe.. yeah.. a short chappie this one.. sorry about that.. but I was a little bit busy today.. Chloe.. dear.. I know you're a bit young.. but in those times.. it was perfectly normal for you to.. you know.. well.. just read the chapter.. you'll know what I mean..

Chapter 12: Evil!

"How is she?"
"Still asleep"
"She took it pretty hard didn't she?"
"Yeah.. well.. what would you expect? He was her boyfriend for crying out loud!"
Actually.. I'm not asleep.. but I don't want to acknowledge the fact that I'm here.. and he isn't.. why can't I wake up from this nightmare?
Will has been very quiet the whole afternoon.. logical of course.. Jack was his friend.. and now.. now they're both gone.. but somehow Will can't seem to look me in the eye.. almost as if he feels guilty about something.

I swallow back a sob and turn around again, facing the wall.
But then I hear a familiar voice, female..
"Will! I just heard.. are you ok?" Chloe!
With a start I sit up straight.
"Chloe! You're here! It's.. they.. hurt" I start crying again..
Chloe is Will's wife.. they're happily married for over a year now (A/N see Ship Ahoy for more explanations) and I am so very glad to see her.

I jump out of bed and start hugging her really tight, crying my eyes out. Everybody else leaves the room, leaving only me and Chloe.
"Shh.. hey.. it's ok.. it's alright to cry" Chloe is shushing me.. and for the first time since this morning I can feel myself calm down.
Still sniffling a bit I dry my eyes.
"They.. they.. Killed.."
"Yes I know.. I came here as fast as I could.. this isn't how I imagined our reunion you know?"
Smiling a bit through the tears I take a shaky breath. I need to distract my mind from things a bit.

"So.. what have you and Will been up to.. Mrs Turner?"
"Well.. we got officially married.. and I live in Port Royal now.. and.. well.. Will doesn't know this yet.. but.. how would you like to be an aunt?"

An aunt.. well.. yeah.. but my sister doesn't even have a boyfriend yet so.. suddenly I get what she's saying.. and for the moment I forget the grief.
"Oh.. my.. god.. you're pregnant! You're carrying a miniature Orlando Bloom!"
Chloe laughs
"Yeah.. sort of.. quite unexpected.. but still.. "
"Congratulations! Well.. you two have been quite busy this last year" -nudge nudge-

"Lona!" Chloe's face looks bright red suddenly.. wonder why?
"Ahem.. anyway.. we had a quiet little life last year, our own cute house.. little puppy.. white fence.. you name it.. we've got it.. Jack stopped by a few times to visit.. and Will helped him with this little project of sorts.. something to do with false trapdoors and a treasure"

False trapdoors.. why would Jack.. wait a minute.. no! I'm going to kill that son of a.. both of them!

All my pain and sorrow is forgotten all of a sudden.. My head feels clear and sharp.. And a plan is rising in my head.

"I need your help"
"Sure.. what do you want me to do?"
"I need to get in touch with Barbossa Jr."

Suddenly the door bursts open and everybody pours back in, shouting objections, trying to make themselves be heard first.
I clamp my hands over my ears and scream out loud:
"Shut up! Everybody shut up!"
The room falls very quiet, I almost can hear a pin drop.. if I would drop a pin that is..
"Now.. I really need to get in touch with Barbossa Jr.. he is the one who sentenced Jack and Jasper to death.. I want his skin! And I want him skinned while he is still alive!"

Mary tries to put her hand protectively on Will's shoulder, but before her hand even reaches within 5 inches of his body Chloe growls and hisses at her.
"Mine!" she snaps under her breath, taking Will's arm and leading him to the other end of the room.

I didn't notice this and continue talking
"I want revenge.. and not only from Barbossa.. but I swear, here before you all.. that it will be Barbossa who suffers the most from the mistake he made.. and that mistake was that he made me believe my boyfriend was dead.. and Jack.. of course"
Norrington's eye twitches
"Sparrow isn't dead then?"
"He isn't dead.. neither is Jasper.. but both of them will be wishing they were if I ever get my hands on them before I cool down enough"

Mary sighs and raises her hand, to show that she has a question.
"All good and dandy.. but that still leaves a few questions open.. most of them starting with Why.. Why would they make you believe they were dead?"
"They didn't anticipated that I would know this.. I don't know why they didn't think I would see that whole charade.. but Jasper's face said enough.."

I look at Will.. who is trying to hide behind Chloe.. which isn't working because Will is way taller than she is.
"Now everybody out! Except for Chloe and Will.. I need to talk to them.. and I have a favour to ask"

You know.. I feel really bitchy and bossy right now.. me like! With my hands clasped behind my back I wait until everybody has left the room.
Then I break down again, crying I walk towards Will and start shaking him by the shoulders.
"They're alive.. aren't they? Tell me! What did you and Jack come up with! Trapdoors! Tell me!"
Chloe gently lays a hand on my shoulder, a sign for me that I should calm down.

Will looks away
"They're alive.. for now"
What does he mean?
Will combs with his fingers through his hair, looking a little bit worried.
"The hangman was a friend.. the figures you saw at the end were dummies.. but I don't know where they are now.. probably taken captive by Barbossa"

Chloe looks shocked
"What? Will! You've been hiding this from us all this time? You saw how.. how.. you.. "
"Yes I know.. and I am sorry.. I should have.. I mean.."
Impatiently I wave his stuttering away
"Yes yes.. don't worry.. I'll blame it all on Jack.. he should be used to it by now.. I think I now where they are.. if I know Jack that is.."

Will looks relieved.. but he's not getting away with it that easily
"Will.. I need a favour from you.. "
"You name it.."
"I want you to teach me how to use a sword"

There.. they're alive! I just couldn't sleep with the thought of a dead Jack Sparrow swimming in my mind.. and Jasper of course.. who didn't like the fact that his Alter Ego was hung.. tsk..
