"We have to get the bloody hell out of here. I just wish I knew where the others were."
Jack Sparrow, captain of the Black Pearl, was out numbered and out manned. Someone had tricked him and his crew was paying for it.
"There he is!"
Jack turned and a second later wished he hadn't. A man took the opportunity to fire a shot and he felt a terrible pain in his stomach. He touched it with his left hand and lifted it to look. "Blood," he whispered. He took off again but tripped and fell flat on his face.
There, with their eyes wide open and blood trailing from their head was Elizabeth Turner.
Clutching his stomach and getting up, with tears in his eyes, he looked over and saw William lying a few feet away as well. He wasn't moving nor breathing so Jack expected the worst. He crawled over on hands and knees to move the lad over to his woman. After they were safely in each other's arms, he felt the tears begin to form in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, truly to the both of you. It never should've ended this way. You still had both of your lives left to live and because of me they've been cut rather short." He looked down at his own wound and smirked.
"Might be joining you sooner than you think."
Suddenly the sounds of battle faded and he saw a bright light come from nowhere. He looked up and saw it. A being was coming down to face him. She had long blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She was wearing long, bright white robes and had wings coming out of her back. She surveyed the scene before finally looking him in the eyes. She gave him a sad smile before making her way over to him.
"Good evening Captain," she whispered.
"Good evening lass. Judging by your appearance you're either here to bring me to my next adventure or save me," he said before coughing interrupted him. Once he took his hand away, there were a few specks of blood that remained there.
"Captain, I'm sorry your life ended this way. It was a lapse of judgement and you have no one to blame but them." She surveyed the two around him, the lovers Will and Elizabeth, before continuing. "I am, as I am sure you already noticed, here to bring the three of you to your new home. Before I do that, I'm going to need the three of you to discuss what comes next." With that, she waved her hand and it glew for a moment.
Jack looked down because he felt something move below him. It turned out it was his body; he was nothing more than a ghost now. He also saw that Will and Elizabeth were like him now as well.
"Jack, what happened. I thought we could trust them," Will said.
"I thought so too lad. It's a bit to late now however," Jack said pointing behind him.
The woman gave them another sad smile before continuing again. "Like I said to the captain, I am terribly sorry that this had to take place like this. You were both so young... Fate has many plans but I'm sorry to say this wasn't one of them."
"One of what," Elizabeth asked. "You three were not suposed to die today." No one said anything for a moment.
"Then why are we dead," Will asked.
"That, I cannot say. However, it is important that you know this fight can still be won, just not now." The three just looked at each other not knowing what was going on.
"I think you lost us lass," Jack said.
"I am the angel of life. I can make sure that, when the time is right, you will return once again to finish this battle the correct way. That is, if you are willing." The three of them nodded so she continued. "I cannot return you now, because since we've been up here months have gone by. Your bodies are long gone I'm afraid. Now come and stand in a circle around me." They did what she told them. "Now, the only conditions are these: I have no control over where your souls will end up. Also, wherever you do end up, you will have no memory of your past until the time is right. Do you agree to these terms?"
"Yes," they all said.
She raised her arms and chanted something. The three others looked at each other just shaking their heads. Suddenly, they felt something inside of the chests. They looked down and they were glowing. Once the glowing ceased, the angel nodded and faded away.
"Well, it looks like we have a bit of a wait ahead of us," Jack said.
