I'll Take my Chances
Chapter 17
Jack ran up the hill of Isle De Puerto, in the distance he could here drums, and scream from a woman, which in his mind was Elizabeth... he was right. He arrived, and could see a huge crowd of people wanting to witness someone's chance for immortality. There at the other end of the crowd was a large slab, with Elizabeth on it, she was kicking and screaming trying to get away. Jack looked at the man who was holding her down, it was Barbossa, his mutinous first mate. His heart broke when he knew that Elizabeth was in trouble.
"Stop squirming Missy, it'll all be over soon" he said lightly moving the knife over her heart. Elizabeth started to cry. "Jjjaaaaaaccckkkk" she screamed at the top of her lungs "Help me" she whispered to herself. Little did she knew Jack was here and that he was there to rescue her.
"I'm coming Elizabeth" he whispered to himself.
"With this ring, and her heart, I shall become The Immortal Barbossa" He turned to Elizabeth and smiled. He walked up towards her and places the knife over her heart.
Jack ran through the crowd as quick as he could, getting to the other side of the crowd, he pulled his gun out and pointed at Barbossa.
"Get off her" Jack told Barbossa, both Elizabeth and Barbossa looked towards Jack, Elizabeth smiled. Barbossa rolled his eyes.
"GET OFF HER!!!" Jack shouted, the crowd went silent. He made it clear how much he cared for Elizabeth, and Elizabeth knew this. Barbossa stoop back, only because Jack had a gun.
"Untie her" he ordered him, Barbossa did not let his eyes move from Jack's glare. He untied Elizabeth, she got up and ran to Jack. He looked at her and hugged her with one arm as tight as he could, still pointing the gun towards Barbossa. He draped his coat over Elizabeth as she was naked.
"Are you all right" he whispered to her, still holding on to her. "Did her hurt you Elizabeth" he moved the coat out of the way, there were bruises on her stomach, arms and red marks round her neck. She looked up to Jack, tears in her eyes, he looked down at here, feeling more love to her than ever before.
Bang
Jack had shot Barbossa, Elizabeth flinched at the gunshot and nusseled into Jack. He dropped his gun and hugged Elizabeth with both arms. The stood in each others embrace for what seemed to them, to be a lifetime. Jack held her hand, smiled at her and began to walk, they had to the ship, as Gibbs was preparing to set sail. He walked till he came at arms length to Elizabeth, and was jolted back, he turned around, Elizabeth was in shock, shaking, she couldn't move. Jack walked up to her, not moving his eyes away from her, he got to her, picked her up in a hug and kissed her passionately.
"Don't leave me Jack" She whispered to him. Jack smiled, which made Elizabeth smile. "Never, I promise"
