"James? What on earth are you doing here?" Governor Swann coughed.
"I came to see you. To tell you I am going to find Will and Elizabeth." James sat down next to the Governor's bed.
The light that was in Weatherby's eyes was gone. "James…she will be hanged upon return."
James hung his head low. "I know. I have an obligation to the crown and Lord Beckett."
"What deal have you made with him?" Weatherby coughed in agony. "Surely…" He stopped when he saw a blank coldness in James's eyes.
"I am sorry. I will bring Elizabeth and Will home, and try and give them a fair trial…"
"No…"
"Please Governor, don't."
Weatherby's breath then hitched as he struggled to breathe. "No, please leave Elizabeth be! Please James for the love of God, don't let that man murder her!"
"I…" James watched as Weatherby suddenly stopped breathing.
James yelled for the doctor's but knew it was too late…Elizabeth's father was dead.

Elizabeth watched the sun rise as she swabbed the decks. "I heard what ya done…" Barbossa said as he watched her from the wheel. "Surprised, but I respect ya a bit more now." He walked toward her. "I knew you had some pirate in you."
"Leave me alone." Elizabeth moved forward but he followed her.
"What I want to know is why you did it? Why did you betray Jack?" Elizabeth turned and looked at him, hatred pouring from her.
"If I told you that, then you really do not deserve to be here right now." With that bit of a mystical statement she walked away…but his statement brought her back.
"You'll be drinking rum with him by tonight."
Elizabeth froze, that soon? "I have a feeling, there won't be any warm feelings between the both of us."
"You'd be surprised."
"You betrayed him, he wanted…did kill you." Elizabeth spat back. "What's the difference?"
"He considers you a friend, I wasn't his friend. Ye did something you had to…"
"We could have done a lot of things differently that day."
"But in the end, you did what ye had to do."
Elizabeth sighed. "Why am I talking to you? You want me dead."
"Ah but I am not your friend, it would hurt me less." Elizabeth scowled at him and looked over the railing.
"There is a ship on that horizon…"
Barbossa took out his spyglass to examine the approaching vessel. "Get everyone out on deck…" He looked at her when she didn't move. "Now!"
Elizabeth scrambled below deck. "Approaching ship, everyone on deck!" Elizabeth hollered and they all got up and tugged on their pants.
"What's happening Elizabeth?" Gibbs asked as he pulled on his boots.
"I saw the ship, the Captain ordered me to get everyone on deck." Elizabeth said as she raced up the stairs with him.
"Oh…" Gibbs looked, and saw immediately what was in front of him…
"It's the Flying Dutchman…" Elizabeth muttered.

"Sir, we are ready to set sail…Sir?" Admiral Norrington was staring out into the harbor. Elizabeth's father was dead…and James was no fool…the infection Governor Swann got was from a wound in his abdomen…most likely put there by Lord Beckett. Murder.
"Yes, set sail." James said as he walked toward his cabin.
James sat at his desk and looked at the scroll's in front of him. An arrest warrant for William Turner, and Elizabeth Swann…he was bound to bring them back to face the charges.

"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirates life for me…" Jack muttered as he walked around the beach for the more than likely sixtieth time. "A pirates bloody life, and look what it got me." Jack half laughed as he slumped down to the sand.
Purgatory was a fate worse than death. Even though he was dead…which was in a sense kind of ironic.
Elizabeth, the pirate…it had a lovely ring to it. Too bad she realized she was a damn good pirate a little too late for him. Was he mad at her? Sure, she caused his death, and she was cruel about it…but he couldn't imagine a better death. On his beloved Pearl, with the sweet kiss of a woman…who chained him to the bloody mast.
She was a better pirate than William. She was ruthless, however how would William be when he found out that she kissed him. He was a eunuch, what did he know about a woman.
At least Jack understood what she did, and it was all for William.
AN- The Governor is dead, and Jack is in Purgatory. I thought instead of making purgatory…well purgatory, I thought I'd make light of it…poor Jack on a beach…with no rum. Hehe…I'm evil.
