Every time they docked from that day on Elizabeth would always look out for her father. The last thing he said to her was. "I guess that the next time I see you I shall have a grandchild." She desperately hoped that she wouldn't have to wait that long. And so she would wait there, watching for him. But every time he would not show up. And every time Will would comfort her as they sailed away. She did not mourn over him all the time though, only when they docked. The rest of the time she was still that fiery, headstrong woman everyone loved. This particular morning however she was more sad than usual. For today they were leaving for the land of the living and she would not seem him for months.
"I'm sorry." Will said coming up from behind her. He sat on the barrel next to her and rubbed her back.
"Don't be." She smiled trying to hide her real feelings "It was his decision whether he would come and visit or not. Now help me get up." She finished and held out a hand. She was 8 months pregnant now and Jack would make fun of how big she was.
Will helped her up and smiled. He was never truly happier than he was in the past few months. He was so excited to be a father soon. He didn't care whether it was a girl or a boy. He would love it just the same.
"Will, it's time to go!" Bootstrap called from the helm.
By that time, everyone knew what to do. Elizabeth and Jack would go into Will and Elizabeth's cabin and the crew could just stand and wait. But even though they had done it before, it never amazed them less as they glided into the abyss and into the land of the living.
It felt good to be back. Although it was always beautiful in the locker the air always seemed so…dead. And as they shot up from the water everyone could feel that freshness in the air that they had missed. They were home.
"Now, on to Aqua de Vida!!!" Jack mused. Everyone laughed.
"Always to eager for your own good Jack." said Bootstrap
"Eh, It's who I am." He snickered.
Nothing much happened in the next month. They were on staying on coarse for Aqua De Vida and every once in a while they would resupply and leave. Now that Elizabeth was due any week Will wouldn't let her out of his sight.
One morning as Will and Elizabeth lay asleep in their cabin, Jack came in very excited.
"What is it Jack??" Will asked, slightly annoyed he was awaken
"Well sorry I awakened you but…we are here!!" he answered.
"Well then let's go!!" Elizabeth exclaimed.
Will and Jack left the room quickly which left Elizabeth struggling to get out of bed. Will ran back in and helped her up. They walked out onto the deck . In the distance was , of course, The Black Pearl. The island in front was large with thick jungle and tall mountains.
"Alright boys this is what we came for!! Prepare the long boats!!" Will shouted.
Bootstrap came up from behind Will "Will, are you sure Elizabeth should come??"
"She isn't due for a while now. Besides we are going to sneek through and around the cave. She will be fine." He answered.
As they rowed toward the cave, for one moment Elizabeth stopped rowing. Will saw the surprised look on her face.
"Are you alright?" he asked.
"Yes." She answered with a hint of uncertainty in her voice.
Once inside they saw that there was no land. It was all deep water, so Will could come in. As they walked furthering they could hear Barbossa talking to his crew. Unfortunately Jack slipped and let out a "whoa!!" Everyone heard this and Barbossa's crew ran after them. Through the water the fought and ran, trying to get on to the Black Pearl. Will, Jack and some of the crew made sure they fought close to Elizabeth. Even though she could probably kick anyone's butt in a sword fight, she was very pregnant and could hardly walk let alone fight. So she did her best to protect herself.
Jack was determined to get his beloved Pearl back. No one was ever able to permanently remove him from it, although many have tried.
I have put my life's work into this ship, I have sold my soul to the devil to bring it back after Beckett destroyed it, I have been dragged to the locker and back with it and I am not going to let some washed up, apple eating monkey loving dog take it!! Jack thought.
Meanwhile outside of Jack's head, the battle continued until out of nowhere Barbossa grabbed Elizabeth and took her to the only place there with no water…..
OHHH!!!!! I am so evil to leave you with a cliff hangie!!!! And I am not continuing until I get 8 more reviews!!! Mwa ha ha!!!!
