Not so Joyous Reunions

Heehee I hope you people like this chapter. It's gonna be quite confusing though but since I've made Lily the main character...well...there has to be SOME kind of life threatening stuff happening to her. What kind of story of mine would this be if there wasn't?

(Lily's POV)

Ok, I'll admit it. I didn't like dancing with Jarrett. I loved it! It was amazing how well we moved together and fit together and…god I'm turning into Isabelle with the foolish fantasies. She's a love freak and thinks that every couple will turn out like her parents and mine. Which is odd…her parents rarely argue and mine argue every single day.

"This is a lovely dress." Jarrett said. I looked down at dress as the skirt twirled and swished as we moved. "It suits you."

"Are you trying to flatter me for a reason?" I asked, looking up with a smile. I looked at his blue eyes and they were sparkling with a somewhat mischievous look. He looked away from me for a second and around at the others.

"Maybe I am." Jarrett said. "I'm sorry I haven't talked to you this week."

"What did my parents say to you?" I asked.

"Uh…nothing much." Jarrett said. "Your father told me to stay a reasonable distance from you but he agreed that if I was part of the crew then I really couldn't stay very far all the time."

"How long did it take for him to agree to that?" I asked.

"Quite a bit of time." Jarrett said. "At first it took your mother some time to keep him from attacking me. Did you tell them?"

"No…my mum just knew." I said, shaking my head. I then got irritated because my hair fell into my face and I tried to blow it out of the way. Jarrett laughed and reached up, brushed the hair out of my face and tucking it behind my ear. He then froze as something caught his attention and his head slowly turned to towards one of the entrances. I narrowed my eyes slightly before looking as well…

And froze in the doing. Coming into the room was a man I only recognized by description but, judging from the way Jarrett had froze, it could only be one person…his father, James Norrington.

"What is he doing?" I muttered.

"Oh bloody hell…" Jarrett said. I looked at him. "Lily, dear god…"

"What…tell me." I said.

"He found out." Jarrett said. "I didn't mean…he figured it out somehow." My eyes widened. Somehow, Norrington had found out from his son that I was here. Why was that such a bad thing though? Norrington had left my family alone for the past few years. It was as if he had disappeared off the face of the earth to us.

But then…so had Beckett…and look what happened with him.

"Lily, get out of here." Jarrett said. "Get your brother and cousin and everyone else and get out…my father's only just arrived in Port Royal himself." I had no clue what was going on. Someone grabbed me and for a wild moment I thought it was Norrington but it was just Andrew.

"Come on, Lil." He said. "You heard him. We have to go."

"What? What's going on?" I asked. Why was everyone so intent on getting me out of there? In all honesty, apart from Tara, Tomas and Isabelle, I'm probably the one with the least reason to piss off the Navy.

"Just go…I'll keep him away from you guys but not for long." Jarrett said. I was confused but wasn't given time to argue because he was gone from my side and Andrew was pulling me out of another entrance. Out that door the rest of my family, Tara and Roselyn all stood.

"Good, you got her." Mum said.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"There's no time to explain." Dad said.

"What? No…that's not fair." I said.

"Come on, Lil." Jaden said. "No time to argue."

"Wait, no…what is it?" I said, trying to struggle against the combined forces of my cousin pulling me and my brother pushing me. "Boys, stop! What does everyone know that I don't?"

"I don't know what's going on." Isabelle said. "Daddy just said we had to go." We were all rushing towards the docks now.

"Now's not the time." Mum said.

"But…" I said.

"No…Lily…now is not the time." Mum said. I sighed and stopped struggling. We got to the docks and Elizabeth hurried Tomas and Isabelle onto the Black Pearl. She didn't go on and Andrew quickly followed his siblings.

"Take care of those two alright?" Will said.

"Yeah, sure but…" I said.

"We'll explain later. Get to Tia Dalma…" Dad said. Jaden winced and frowned. "And wait there for us. We'll bring the boy with us as soon as we can get him from his own father." I was beyond confused now. What was going on?

"There's no time." Jaden said, grabbing me around the waist and pulling me aboard my own ship. The parents stayed on the dock and, soon as the plank was down, they hurried off.

Jaden was using his powers to move us farther away from the shore, farther out of reach of the navy… and farther away from five important people.

None of us slept that night. Roselyn, Tara, Tomas and Isabelle out of worried anxiety for what was going on (as I was because none of us knew), and Jaden and Andrew out of plain worry.

(Isabelle's POV)

I stayed with Lily in her cabin even though neither of us slept. I didn't know what was going on and so I cried, worried about everything and about my parents. Lily tried to calm me down but she was as worried and scared as I was I think. We just lied next to each other on her bed.

The next morning we sat with Tara and Roselyn at the back of the ship, both of us staring out at the smooth horizon behind us with a somewhat longing expression.

"It must be something bad." I said, finally. None of us had talked since we boarded the ship. "To send us to Tia Dalma even though I'm afraid of her and Jaden doesn't care much for her."

"I like her." Lily said. "But I agree…it must be bad."

"They were more worried about getting you away." Roselyn said. I looked at her to see her looking at my cousin.

"Why though? There's nothing awfully special about me." Lily said, frowning. "Nothing that mum can't do better anyways."

"And it's not like you're really the one the navy should concern itself with." Tara said. "You've said so yourself, pretty much everyone else in your family apart from Isabelle and Tomas has committed more crimes then you."

"Maybe this Tia Dalma woman would know more about it then us." Roselyn said. Lily crossed her arms on the railing and rested her chin on them. I looked at my cousin sadly. I didn't want to be the one to bring up the story I had heard about the first time Lily had been kidnapped to bring her grandfather back from the dead. I think that there was might be something more to my cousin then what everyone else thinks.

Uncle Jack and Aunt Maddie might have a vague idea of it though. I figured out last night why mum and daddy were so intent of getting me and Tomas aboard the ship as well. What if the two of us were captured? We could be used as hostages or something. From what I've heard of Norrington, I wouldn't put it past him to do something like that. It was safer for Tomas and I to be with our brother and cousins, leaving our parents free to do what they needed to keep themselves safe rather then having to worry about us.

"Issy…" I jumped and looked up at my oldest brother. I looked around to see Lily steering and Tara and Roselyn helping out around the ship. I looked back at Andrew. "You alright?"

"I'm kind of scared." I said, truthfully. There was no point lying to him. Andrew always seemed to know.

"What are you scared about more?" Andrew asked, sitting next to me.

"I dunno." I said. "I don't want to talk about what's scaring me though."

"Alright…we'll talk about something different." Andrew said.

"Ok." I said. "So how long have you loved Roselyn?" I asked. If Andrew had been drinking or eating something, he either would have spat it out or choked.

"I…you…we…I…she…" He said. I couldn't help but laugh slightly. "That's not funny Issy. I don't…I don't love her."

"Well…maybe not yet but you do like her…a lot." I said.

"And how would you know?" Andrew asked, going red.

"I watch." I said, simply. Before he could say anything, I stood up and left him alone.

(Jaden's POV)

I honestly don't know what's going on. All mum and dad had said to me and Andrew was that if we were to ever run into someone that we knew wasn't good, we were to get Lily out of there. I don't know if they actually meant that if we ever met Norrington…or maybe there are a few other people out there that could be looking for…whatever it is that they would want Lily for.

I figured out that much at least by myself. I walked up to join my twin by the wheel. Her eyes locked on the darkening horizon. Her hands gripped the wheel so tightly her knuckles were turning white.

"Lily…let go." I said, softly. I took her hands and she jumped but slid her hands off the wheel and looked at me. "Are you alright?"

"No." Lily said. "What is going on?"

"I don't know for sure." I said. "There's just…mum and dad have hammered it into Andrew and mine's heads that if we ever came across some…shady character…then we were to get you away. They said we'd know."

"Why?" Lily asked. I put my hands on the wheel as the wind picked up. Lily was still in her masquerade dress but the mask was now down around her neck.

"I don't know." I said, sighing. "I honestly don't know, Lil."

"I guess that's why we're gonna go see her then." Lily said, finally pulling her mask up over her head and removing it. She looked at it. "You think they're ok?"

"I'm sure they're all fine." I said, knowing that she was talking about more then just our parents, Aunt and Uncle. Lily sighed and I watched her walk away to go and lean against the rail at the very front of the ship.

(Third Person POV)
Port Royal

"Bloody hell this is getting to be impossible." Madison muttered.

"No kidnapping is easy, luv." Jack said. "Well…for your grandfather it probably is but…"

"That's it!" Madison said. "Jack Sparrow you are a genius."

"What am I genius about now?" Jack asked.

"If Jones could have transferred not only himself but his whole crew, onto the Pearl all those years ago…" Madison said. "Then I can manage to transport myself to get Jarrett and then get both of us onto the ship that Will just got." Jack looked over at the water to the ship his brother- and sister-in-law were standing on, waiting.

"Right then…hop to it, luv." Jack said. "Just be careful."

"Aren't I always?" Madison asked.

"No." Jack said. Madison smiled and kissed him quickly. When Jack blinked…she was gone.

"How you were ever allowed to become general is beyond me." Jarrett muttered, leaning against a wall and watching his father pacing.

"How you are my son is beyond me as well." Norrington said, looking at the young man irritatingly. Jarrett rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. "How did they get away?"

"Maybe they just took one look at you and bolted." Jarrett said. He smirked as he watched Norrington struggle with himself. He knew the old man wanted to hit him but was restraining himself for some odd reason or another.

"You are far more trouble then you're worth." Norrington muttered. Jarrett frowned. What did that mean? At that moment he felt as if he was being used. Norrington walked across the room and out the door leading to the balcony overlooking the water. Jarrett blinked and jumped as Madison appeared in front of him and slapped her hand over his mouth.

"Shh…" She said. She removed her hand from his mouth and took hold of both of his arms before causing the two of them to disappear just before Norrington re-entered the room. They reappeared by Jack and Madison let go of Jarrett and swayed slightly. "Whoa…head rush."

"Ok, we got the boy…can we get out of here now?" Jack asked. "Don't want to let the kids have too much of a head start."

"What's going on?" Jarrett asked.

"We'll explain when we get to our destination." Madison said, leading the way to the ship. "Until then, try not to think about it." They got aboard the ship to find Will, Elizabeth, and a few members of the new crew on it already. Will must have told them what was going on already.

They didn't waste anytime and set sail as soon as Jack stepped onto the ship and the plank was raised. Madison, like Jaden, used some of her power to get them away quicker.

"This is going to end badly, I just know it." Jack muttered, looking ahead of them. Jarrett decided that it was probably safer for him to stay away from Jack and so he spent the sailing time helping out around the ship and avoiding the father of the girl he was interested in.

So there we go…a bunch of different POVs. I hoped you like Isabelle's…not a whole to it and it may seem weird that I'll be doing some things in her POV and not Tomas' or Roselyn's and Tara's but there is a good reason for that.
