Chapter 24: Flight of the Sparrows

The gallows were standing out. A crowd gathered for the main event that day. The execution of Jack Sparrow. Hermione, Ginny, Will, Harry, and Elizabeth had a grand view. They were near the Commodore and others of Port Royal society.

"This is wrong.." Hermione gritted through her teeth.

" I know." Ginny complained. She hugged her friend. "I can't believe it either"
An old man read Jack's wrong-doings from a lengthy scroll. The list was of usual piracy and stealing. And then a strange one arose.

"Impersonating a clergy member of the church..."

"What?" the girls were stunned.

"Oh yeah.." Jack laughed. "Good time there." But other things ran through his mind.

Poor Hermione. It must be terrible to be standing here watching this. She's probably embarassed...

Hermione's mind stirred as well.

Oh god! We have to do SOMETHING at least. I can't bear to watch the love of my life get choked to death by a bloody nuse.

"...May god have mercy on your soul." Hermione began to cry.

"I can't watch!" she hide her face on her friend's shoulder. The tears came down. Ginny patted her on the back. The red head's eyes couldn't gaze anywhere else. Will came foward a bit. He whispered something to Elizabeth. She nodded. Elizabeth went along with it. Harry oblivious to the whole thing.

"I can't breathe." she gasped for air and fell on the floor. Harry, Commodor Norrington, and Governor Swann rushed to her side.

"Elizabeth?" Harry and Commodore spoke in unison. Harry looked up for a moment. He saw Will making the daring rescue. Hermione still crying on Ginny. He was no longer lost. He continued to pay attention to Elizabeth. She rose up.

"Thank god." Harry breathed. Harry helped her up.

"Oh my god." she couldn't believe that Will actually went and did it. Jack was free from the rope. Sword in hand. They fought side by side.

"Hermione! Look!" Elizabeth shouted. Hermione lifted her head up. her jaw dropped.

JACK!

the reats were still on her face. She made her way to the guards. Will and Jack were surrounded after th fighting.

"Get out of the way." Hermione shoved through. Ginny did as well.

"Stand down!" Commodre Norrington commanded. The soldiers listened. Hermione stood in front of Jack. Ginny doing the same for Will. Elizabeth clutched onto Harry's arm. "So this is how it is, isn't it?" Commodore sneered. Looking at the couple. He turned around to see Elizabeth and Harry. "And you...I thought..we.."

"There was never a we, James Norrington." she reminded him of the cruel truth. "And I love Harry."

"As I love Elizabeth." Harry added.

"Well then." while he said this, Jack took Hermione's hand and ran to the edge. Commodore turned around.

"Go Go Go!" Ginny and Will urged. Jack held Hermione's hand proudly.

"Well. Commodore...I was rooting for you. And Will.." he stoped himself. "Nice hat." he came closer to the edge with Hermione. She turned to see the rocks below. She gulped and turned back around. The ring on her finger became evident.

"Gentlemen." Jack slurred. Hermione smiled. The moved further back. "This is the day that you will remember as the day you all most caught the Sp.." they tripped. Seconds letter, a splash was heard. Ginny, Will, Harry, and Elizabeth looked over the edge.

"Oh my god!" Elizabeth and Ginny shrieked.

"Don't worry." Harry sounded. "He's Captain Jack Sparrow. And she will be Hermione Sparrow." they laughed. Commodore came near them. They trued around to see him standing there.

"Uh oh.." Ginny muttered.

"Relax.." Commodore smirked.

"Um...is he on rum?"

the gang laughed again.

"No, Ginny" Will told her.

"Oh."

"We will give the Sparrows a head start."

He and the soldiers turned and left. Governor Swann approached Harry and Elizabeth.

"So you love him?" he wondered. "Yes, father." they all paused.

"Well, welcome, my son in law." he patted Harry on the back and left. Harry smiled.

"Elizabeth Potter.." the word fumbled from her mouth. "Has a nice sound to it.." she smiled and kissed Harry passionately. They continued. Fiery and romantic kisses erupting in their mouths. They relased. Harry approached Ginny and Will.

"So. Planning a wedding anytime soon?" He chuckled.

"Yes. You and Elizabeth?"

"Yeah."

"Yay! I love double weddings"

"That could work."

"Yay!" she hugged her friend.

"You love Will?"

"Of course."

"He is a black smith you know...right?" Harry and Will smiled.

"No.." Ginny winked at Will. She turned back to Harry. "He's a pirate." Harry left them and came back to Elizabeth just in time. Will and Ginny began to kiss passionately.

(AN: Back to Jack and Hermione)

"Nice day to swim, huh?" Hermione joked around. Jack laughed. They looked around in the water. From the clearing, a large ship sailed towards the couple. Hermione checked if her ring was still on her finger. Jack saw her hand. He raised it to his lips and kissed it.

"Beautiful." she smiled. The ship then came closer. A familiar face shouted.

"Welcome back, Captain Jack." It was the Gibbs. Jack looked up. It was his prized ship. The Black Pearl. The crew let a rope down. Hermione and Jack grabbed on. The crew hoisted them up.

"Welcome aboard, Captain." Anamaria smiled. "And welcome to you, Miss Granger"
"It's Hermione Sparrow." Jack drawled. He took Hermione's hand and showed the ring.

"Welcome aboard, Mrs. Sparrow." Hermione couldn't be any prouder.

"We missed you two!" Gibbs told them.

"Thanks." Hermione spoke.

"Your welcome, Mrs. Sparrow"

"To man my ship!" Jack let go of Hermione's hand and marched to the steering wheel. He put his hands on its wooden handles. Gibbs handed Hermione the captains jacket and hat.

"You know what to do.." Gibbs winked at Hermione. She nodded. Hermione came over to her husband to be. He smiled at her. "I told you we would be together here, love."

"I knew it all along." Hermione grinned. She put the jacket and hat on Jack. He kissed her on lips.

"Can I steer?" she chirped.

"Of course, love" She took the steering wheel. Jack put hs arms around her. He began to hum a tune. It was the one they sang on the island. she recalled the dancing with rum, and the promises he made.

"And reallyt bad eggs.." she giggled. He leaned his head on her shoulder.

"Drink up me hearties, yo ho..." they sang the whole entire song as they sailed into the sunset.
