A/N: Ok I know that this chapter isn't that long but I wanted to give you guys an update since I might not be able to update tomorrow. I also had an idea for this chapter but I thought it was just too soon for Willy to warm up to Will so I'll save my idea for a future chapter! ENJOY!
Chapter Eleven
Plotting
A tall and broad man sat in a large chair in an office in Port Royal. His followers stood before him. The man was now in control of the East India Trading Company and the most powerful man in Port Royal. This man was known as Lord Thomas Beckett, the brother of Lord Cutler Beckett. Sadly, his brother was killed by the Pirate King and Captain Will Turner ten years ago. However, things turned around for Thomas Beckett. The Pirate King was dead. Now Beckett had the perfect plan. He had just received word that her children had been aboard the Black Pearl the past nine years. "We'll find the Pearl," Beckett said, a hint of evil in his voice. "And when we do, we'll take those two Turner brats as bait. Their father is sure to come for them. Then when he does, we'll get his heart and kill him."
One of Beckett's lackey's who went by Geoffrey Hutchins cleared his throat. Beckett and the two other men that were in the office turned to face Hutchins. Hutchins said, "You do know that if you kill Captain Will Turner, his murderer must take over the Flying Dutchman right?" All three men who stared at Hutchins laughed. "We don't have to worry about that, Hutchins," said a blond haired lackey who went by Theodore McGovney. "We have no intention of ferrying souls to the the Other Side."
Bella ran around in the yard of the home in St. Maarten. Her hair had come loose of its yellow ribbon as she ran away from her father, Will Turner. Eventually the man caught up to Bella and swooped her into his arms. The girl giggled but she was sad inside. Her brother refused to acknowledge Will as his true father. He refused to believe that his mother had died giving birth to him. Willy sighed, watching father and daughter play. Elizabeth approached the boy and nudged him. "Go away," snapped Willy. Elizabeth glared at Willy. She looked just like AnaMaria when she glared. "No!" screamed Elizabeth.
Willy gazed back at Elizabeth and asked, "You're a stubborn little bugger, aren't you?" Enthusiastically, Elizabeth nodded. "You betcha!" the young girl squealed.Willy rolled his eyes at Elizabeth and looked away. The raven haired girl glared harder at Willy. Having enough of the boys attitude, she reached a small and chubby hand towards Willy. She was careful not to be caught by anyone especially by Willy and then, as she giggled to herself, she pinched the older boy. "OW!" shouted Willy. He turned to Elizabeth and all the four year old girl could do was smile as if she was the most innocent thing in the world.
Both AnaMaria and Jack sat in the parlor. Will was outside with his children, getting acquainted and Elizabeth decided to join them. They had been talking a good hour and the sun was beginning to set. "Do ye think it's wise, Jack?" AnaMaria asked. Jack nodded and replied, "Aye, Ana. This will be the only way he'll be able to see his bonny lass again." AnaMaria took a deep breath. Jack had come up with some crazy schemes in the past but this was probably one of his craziest. The two pirates didn't even know if the idea would work. Then again, it just might. "Plus," Jack began, "With both goddesses on the side of the pirates, the East India Trading Company will have a hell of a time gaining control of the sea. With the dead on our side? We're unstoppable!" AnaMaria laughed then asked, "Do ye think she'd allow Elizabeth to return to the land of the living?"
Jack shrugged, thinking. He didn't know what would happen. "She owes me a favor," Jack simply replied. AnaMaria, with arms crossed, raised an eyebrow. "Ye said that about Calypso too, Jack." Jack chuckled and played with one of his many dark dreads. Once again he had that crazy look in his eyes. "Aye, I did. Trust me. This will work. I give ye my word as a man and not as a pirate." The door opened and all attention turned to Will coming in with Bella, Willy and Elizabeth. AnaMaria and Jack exchanged looks, hoping nothing was overheard by Will. To Willy and Bella, Will said, "go upstairs and get ready for bed. I'll be up to say goodnight shortly." Willy scowled and walked upstairs but with a skip in her step, Bella followed.
A tired Elizabeth ran into her mother's arms. The girl rubbed her eyes as AnaMaria stood. "I better put this one to bed," AnaMaria said. "She's had a long day with meeting her Uncle Will and all." Will smiled and Jack kissed Elizabeth on the forehead. "I'll be there in a few," Jack said as AnaMaria left with the tired girl. Will chuckled and took a seat beside Jack. "We haven't really had the chance to talk, have we, Jack?" Will asked. Jack shook his head and replied, "Aye, we haven't. It looks like Bella has already accepted that yer her real father. She's always wished it, Will." Jack's words confused Will and Jack laughed when he realized that his friend was confused.
"She always wanted to be her heroes daughter, William. When she was eight, I let her hold yer heart," Jack explained. Will's eyes were wide. He didn't think his daughter would want to even look at a heart, let alone hold one. Will didn't know what to say. Finally he said, "I'm glad you did, Jack. She had a chance to be with me even if I wasn't here." Will stood and began to head upstairs to say good night to his children.
A/N: What did you guys think? Anyway... who do you guys think is the "other" goddess Jack and AnaMaria were talking about? I know I didn't mention her but that's because I wanted you to be left in suspense for a few more chapters. She'll make an appearance around Chapter Fifteen. So please REVIEW! Thanks!
