Once, Forever and Always

Chapter 12 – The Final Battle

"Pull canvas!" Jack shouted orders and Barbossa quickly followed in suit. I was shocked as I saw the Flying Dutchman come out from under the water with Will standing very much alive and well. He was the new Captain of the Flying Dutchman and if he did his job then he wouldn't grow any tentacles. I knew the Captain couldn't step onto land except once every ten years. I knew Elizabeth would be able to handle her own but what if she had kids? These thoughts quickly disappeared from my mind as the Dutchman and the Pearl came up to the sides of the Interceptor.

"Captain!" Gibbs asked turning to Jack wanting orders.

Jack smirked as his eyes twinkled "Fire."

A series of 'Fires' came after along with shots of cannons coming from both directions of the ships. The Interceptor was blown apart as the last cannonball was shot. The pirates cheered as they celebrated their victory. Hats were currently being thrown in the air in all different directions. I turned from my postion on deck to the helm where Jack currently stood smiling off into the crowd. His eyes quickly found mine and stupid smile fell upon my face at seeing him. I felt my heart skip a beat at seeing him. I was in too deep with him and I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to dig deeper or try and find a rope to crawl out from. I did no one thing though I had unfinished business to attend too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~POTC~~~~~~~~~~~~

Most of the other boats from the Brethren court had left by now leaving the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman. We weren't that far from shore now which I was rather thankful for. I knew we had to go to the nearest port but I had a few things I had to do first.

"Your chariot awaits, your highness." Gibbs said indicating the rowing boat on the side of the ship "The oars are inside." Elizabeth walked down the line of people who were standing there. I stood on the opposite side of the line where there was no one. I stood facing Jack.

"Mrs. Turner." Barbossa said smirking.

"Goodbye poppet."

Elizabeth came up to Jack and stood there as he was the last in line. "Jack, it would never have worked out between us"

Jack smirked "Keep telling yourself that, darling." Elizabeth leans into to kiss him but he stops by putting his hands up "Once is quite enough." I smirked at Jack glad he didn't.

"Thank you." She whispered. Elizabeth then turned to me and I only smirked and winked knowing that she knew the plan.

As Elizabeth sat in the row boat waiting. I turned to Jack who looked confused. "I'm sorry we didn't get to have this conversation sooner Jack but I have to go with Elizabeth. She has the letters from my father and I want to find him. I'm sorry I can't go with you but I promise you this I will find you after I have found him… that is if you want me too." I said hoping he would want me too.

Jack looked to his feet as he played with the ring on his middle finger. He then looked up at me and nodded. "Come find me love after you found him." He took off the red ruby ring and grabbed my hand. He placed the ring in my hand and closed it.

"Say it once for me Jack." I pled hoping I could hear him speak those words just once.

"I love you Abigail." I smiled as tears almost spilled from my eyes. I nodded happily and pulled Jack into a kiss that I hope he would never forget. I could still feel the sparks as are lips met and the way the moved in sync with one another. I pulled away quickly knowing that if I didn't I wouldn't get off this boat.

"Forever and Always, Jack." I said and pulled out his hand putting the only thing that meant so much to me almost as much as him my heart locket.

Jack opened his arms for a hug and I quickly accepted wrapping my arms around him as well loving how well are bodies molded together. I leaned into his ear and whispered.

"That locket holds a secret Jack. It won't open unless the time is right so don't bother trying."

I pulled away and kissed his smirking lips one last time before I left. I waved at the crew and winked at Jack as I climbed down the side of the ship and into Elizabeth's dingy. I didn't dare look back knowing I would swim back to him so instead I faced Elizabeth and smirked.

"Don't worry I won't interrupt the two of you. I plan on going into town." I winked at her as she laughed and shook her head.

TEN YEARS LATER

"Yo ho, yo ho a pirate's life for me, we pillage, we plunder, we rifle and loot. Drink up me hearties yo ho, we kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot. Drink up me hearties yo ho, Yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me." A young William Turner the third sings as Elizabeth and I walk up behind him. Elizabeth is dressed in a beautiful green dress while I'm dressed in trousers and an old white shirt from our pirate days.

I stuff the letters that I have reread a thousand times over into the waist band of my pants. They stick out like a sore thumb considering that there are at least twenty of them. I smile over at Elizabeth and look down at how grown up Will is. It's crazy how fast time as gone but I was ready to leave and go back out at sea and go looking for my father. I know I'm going to have to catch a ride on trading boat to a port but it would be worth it in the end. Hopefully, this whole journey will be.

I watch as a flash of green crosses the sky as the sun touches the horizon. The Flying Dutchman appears not soon after. I nudge Elizabeth telling her goodbye and she nods and smiles giving me reassurance. We already said our goodbyes before I left. I didn't want to intrude of The Turners anymore. As I walked down towards the docks I pulled out a chain from underneath my shirt. It held the ring Jack gave me before I left. I quickly kissed it than tucked it back underneath. It was too big to fit my tiny fingers and frankly it was closer to my heart just where Jack is.

I will always love that man no matter how much trouble he gets in to.
