Puerto Rico
Well if I get a cookie…I guess I could update.

Madison walked with Elizabeth, arms linked and whispered stuff to each other. Jack and Will trailed behind them and looked slightly worried because the girls kept laughing and looking at them while they whispered. Both were wearing dresses again. Madison was in a midnight blue dress that clung to her body at the right spots. One short sleeve was constantly falling off her shoulder and her long hair was left down and shined from the recent soaking it had received. Elizabeth was a similar dress but hers was a dark purple colour and her sleeves stayed put. Her hair was braided and hung over one shoulder.
"She's planning something." Jack said. "I just know it."
"You're overreacting." Will said, raising an eyebrow at Elizabeth's back. Both girls turned to look at him before slapping their hands over their mouths before giggling like mad. "Or…maybe you're not." Jack and Will gave the girls' backs partially worried looks. They walked for a while, Madison mostly leading the way. Jack looked around before catching up to the girls and grabbing Madison's elbow.
"What?" Madison asked.
"You leading with your head or feet?" Jack asked.
"My…" Madison said. She looked down at her feet then at her surroundings. "Feet…apparently."
"Yeah. You're leading us to…your old job." Jack said.
"Yeah." Madison said.
"They won't recognize you…will they?" Elizabeth asked.
"I don't know." Madison said. "Only one way to find out."
"I don't think…" Jack started. Madison got her arm out of his hold and started walking again.
"Wait for us, Madison!" Elizabeth called, running to catch up. Will shrugged at Jack before following them. Jack sighed and looked around before doing the same.
A tall, slender woman stepped out from the shadows, watching the group of four before her eyes fell on the young woman in the dark blue dress. This woman wore a black dress that hung off her shoulders. Her brown hair was done up in an elegant bun with a few strands hanging down to frame her pale face. Her bright green eyes stood out with help from her make-up. In contrast to her soft curves, her face was hard as only years in her profession could make it.
"Madison…" The woman said. She crossed her arms and watched as the group disappeared into a building. "Couldn't be." She remembered what one of the men looked like. He looked so familiar. Her mind traveled to a time about eighteen or so years previously. She slept with a man, fell pregnant with his child as she was supposed to at that age (a family thing, told to her by her mother), and gave birth. She knew instantly that she couldn't keep the child safe.
She slowly followed the group into the building, humming a tune under her breath. The father returned, a few months later. She had given the girl a name and her father's surname before allowing him to take her. She pushed open the door to the building and walked in. People greeted her as she passed but she paid little attention to them. Her eyes shot around the room before landing on the young woman she had seen outside. The dark blue dress twirled around her as she danced with the familiar looking man. A smile lit up her face as the other man that was with them outside came into view and took the girl's hands as he basically stepped in to take over dancing. The girl laughed.
The woman looked at the man. He too looked familiar and it only took a few seconds for her to realize who he was…Jack Sparrow. Her eyes narrowed slightly. She had hoped that the girl wasn't who she thought she was. She wasn't sure how she knew that the girl dancing with Sparrow was the one she was thinking of but she did know. Motherly instinct if nothing else.
"I thought you didn't dance monsieur Sparrow." Madison said.
"Do that again." Jack said.
"What?" Madison asked. She smirked. "Monsieur Sparrow?" She made it sound like a purr.
"You can't hold me responsible for my actions if you keep that up." Jack whispered. Madison put her arms around his neck and pressed herself against him, causing Jack to moan slightly. "I'm beginning to think you know exactly what you're doing and not just doing this by accident."
"Well you're right there." Madison said. Jack leaned down and kissed her. This time Madison moaned and Jack smirked triumphantly. "You haven't won yet Jack." Madison managed to get away from him. "I'm gonna get a drink." She made her way through the crowd toward the bar. Jack frowned. He didn't want her alone here. He looked around and spotted a woman that was familiar. He walked over to her and noticed her eyes following him.
"Vanessa." Jack said.
"Hello again, Captain." Vanessa said. She smoothed out her dress. "What can I do ya for?"
"I know this might sound odd but have you seen Mad…uh, Kitten?" Jack asked.
"She's come back has she?" Vanessa asked. "She disappeared with some man a few months back and no ones seen her since."
"Well she came here with me and a few others." Jack said.
"Ahh so you did find interest in her." Vanessa said, smirking.
"Bloody hell woman, can you just tell me if you've seen her?" Jack asked, growing impatient.
"I saw a woman that looks like her not two minutes ago." Vanessa said. "Her eyes were watching you and that girl you was dancing with. Was that kitten?"
"Yes. Where did this woman go?" Jack asked.
"Back toward the bar." Vanessa said. Jack left her and headed toward the bar. Keeping an eye out in case he saw Madison anywhere. Once he got to the bar he saw a woman that looked like Madison. Very much like her except she was taller and in a black dress. For a crazy moment Jack thought that maybe Calypso had decided to make an appearance in their lives because something was wrong. That thought was gone almost instantly. While this woman in front of him did have a look of power around her, it was no where near as strong as what he'd seen from Madison when Calypso was in control of her.
"Jack Sparrow…what brings you here?" The woman asked. Jack noticed she was looking at him.
"I'm looking for someone, luv." Jack said. "Maybe you can help me out. Dark brown hair, green eyes, blue dress, yay tall…" He raised his hand to just under his shoulder. "Looks an awful lot like you. Seen her around anywhere?"
"Can't say I have." The woman said.
"You're a terrible liar." Jack said. Bill came out of the crowd by Jack. The woman froze at the sight of him.
"Jack there's something…" Bill said, but stopped when he saw the woman.
"William." The woman said, softly.
"Carolyn." Bill said. Jack looked between them, leaning back slightly as he stood between the two.
"It seems our fair pirate here has lost out daughter." Carolyn said.
"Wait…you're Maddie's mum?" Jack asked, looking at her.
"What are you doing here?" Bill asked, looking at Carolyn as well.
"I saw them all come in." Carolyn said. "Decided to follow."
"Carolyn…" Bill said.
"Oh alright!" Carolyn said. "How old was I when you met me?"
"What?" Bill asked.
"You know so don't pretend you don't." Carolyn said.
"You had just turned eighteen." Bill said.
"You…" Carolyn said, looking at Jack. "You're obviously close to her. Has she talked to you about children?"
"Mentioned wanting them." Jack said. "Wasn't sure what she wanted more though, boy or girl. Why?"
"Because now is the time." Carolyn said. She waved her hand absently. "It's a line, starting from Calypso. Once the first born daughter gets to her eighteenth year…it is then that she can have the child she desires and it is the best time for her to have that child."
"Why?" Bill asked.
"How should I know?" Carolyn said. "I wasn't there when she made it. I wasn't the one that made it. All I know is that Calypso did something. The child she had with Jones, she was eighteen. Surely you know that she loved Jones deeply."
"Not for long." Jack muttered, remembering the anger that Madison/Calypso had just before killing Davy Jones.
"Yes well, what else would you expect?" Carolyn said. "As I was saying. She wanted the perfect child with the man she loved more then ever. She used her magic to give her exactly the daughter she wanted. She used much power then. So far, down the line, each daughter in her eighteenth year, has wanted a child, conceived, and has gotten exactly the child she wants, which normally turns out to be a girl."
"Even you?" Bill asked.
"Yes, even me." Carolyn said. "I wanted a beautiful, strong, powerful daughter."
"She's all that." Jack said. He missed what Carolyn said next because his eyes had fallen to the back door where and he noticed two men struggling and Madison's head coming in and out of view as she struggled to get away. It took Jack mere seconds to recognize the men.
James Norrington and Hector Barbossa.

Ending! So now you know that Madison is gonna wind up pregnant soon. Oh…but here's the question. Is she gonna have a girl, boy, or both? Ahh…I won't tell. But what do you people think? It's not gonna be a poll but I will give "gifts" to people who get it right.
