Hizir picked up all of the survivors that he found including his brother Oruc. "Thank you brother," Oruc said slapping his brother's back as he hugged him. "I've never seen a storm like this one. The gods must be very angry."
"Aye, brother and I think the be angry with that black ship not us," Hizir added.
"Poseidon must have a sacrifice or I would fear that this storm and these seas will continue. It already cost me my ship. We must do something," Oruc said.
Hizir called one of his men to go below and get his new cargo, "seems me men decided to bring me a present. I saw it as useless until now. If Poseidon needs a sacrifice and the anger was directed more at the black ship," Hizir paused as he looked at his brother and then at the two small children brought to him. "These would seem to fulfill our needs. Right dear brother."
Oruc looked at the children. He was not in the habit of hurting small children but even as they tried to get out of the storm he knew the gods must be appeased. He looked at his brother and sadly nodded his head in agreement. "Something must be done."
Jack began to panic when he only saw wreckage in the spot they had seen their attackers. Were both ships lost, he thought to himself, no there would be more wreckage and there would be bodies in the water.
"Jack, anything yet," Jess called to him through the storm.
"No love and ye shouldn't be here. Get below," Jack said but he saw her tears and her bloodied sleeve. Jess continued forward holding onto anything to keep her from falling as the Pearl was tossed around. Jack looked into her eyes and saw the same pain he was feeling in his heart.
"Are ye alright," he asked.
"Physically I'm fine. All stitched up now. But Jack what if we can't find them? She's our daughter and poor Elizabeth she can't lose both Will and William. I don't think her heart can take it."
"Go down and comfort her Jess. We'll find them. We just have to hope this storm clears soon."
Jess slowly descended below once again. Her head hung low and her heart was breaking. She had not defended her daughter enough to keep her safe. Now they had lost her.
Poseidon hearing the cries so far away went to investigate. Amphirite saw Poseidon coming and quickly left before she was seen. Poseidon saw the ship of Hizir and noticed that they had just thrown over two small children into the sea. The storm was almost over now but the men cried out to Poseidon to accept their gifts.
Poseidon watched the children as they struggled in the sea. Slowly they were losing the battle. He stepped in and grabbed the two children. When he did, he felt something. These children were different. There was something about them; they seemed familiar to him. He was drawn to these children but he had no idea why. He decided that he would go talk to Zeus about this for he was afraid of angering his wife bringing two unknown children home.
Poseidon called for Zeus and Zeus heard him and came to him. Poseidon explained the situation to him. Zeus told him these children belonged on a ship that was black with black sails and they should be returned to it. Poseidon agreed and went in search of the black ship.
Thankful the storm had gone and the seas had calmed. Jack left Cotton in charge of steering and sent Marty up to the crows nest. He then took the time to go below and check on Jess and Elizabeth.
"Anything," Elizabeth asked.
"No love but the sea's calm and the storm is gone. We should be able to," then Jack was cut off by Gibbs' cry for Jack to come immediately.
Jack, Jess and Elizabeth ran up the stairs and onto the deck.
"Over there," Marty cried pointing to something in the water.
"What is it," Jess asked.
"It looks somewhat like a man and he's holding, oh my, it's the children," Elizabeth said starting to cry.
"Looks like he's bringing them to us," Jack stated.
Poseidon saw the black ship and saw two women hanging over the rail crying and pointing to the children. Jack started down the net hanging on the side. He reached as Poseidon handed him Jasmine. She had been asleep but woke up to her daddy's voice, "daddy!" Jack quickly handed her up to Gibbs who sat her in her mother's arms.
Poseidon handed William over to Jack in the same manner. "Thank you. Oh thank you so much for bringing my son back to me. He's all I have," Elizabeth cried looking into Poseidon's eyes.
What was it about this woman? These people felt familiar to him. When all thanks had been giving to Poseidon, the crew turned their attention to the children as they told their story. Poseidon decided he wanted to know more about these people and this ship. So he began to climb up and as he stepped out of the water, he was no longer Poseidon. Will Turner looked at the group on deck with their backs to him, "Elizabeth," he called.
Elizabeth looked up from William and saw her husband. Jack and Jess turned to look as well hearing the familiar voice.
"Will," Elizabeth said, "you're alive! I thought you were dead. Oh my…" Her words were cut off by Will's kiss. He kissed her passionately and dipped her slightly. When he brought her up to standing, he put his arms around her and motioned for his son to join them.
"Will, me boy, can ye tell me where ye came from," Jack asked.
"The last thing I remember was lightning and being pulled down into the sea by dolphins, I think. Don't remember anymore until I was climbing up to get on the Pearl."
"That's interesting," Jack said wondering about what all had happened.
