As soon as the sun set, Jack and Will set out by themselves in a longboat. Jack had thought about telling Gibbs to keep to the code but since all that had happened he was not convinced those left behind were safe even if the Pearl left without them. Jack and Will had clothed themselves with in dark colored cloaks with hoods. They needed to be able to sneak around unseen.

After landing in Port Royal they kept as much as possible to the dark alleys. There were not many people about. It looked as though some people were trying to clean up from the attack. Many buildings were burned to the ground and from the little they could see, it looked as if many of the survivors were packing their belongings to leave this town forever.

Will walked down the street to where the smithy once stood. Will kicked an old burned piece of timber off the Blacksmith sign; the name no longer read Brown but Turner. It had looked like the place had burned many years ago and then left untouched.

"This is not from the recent attack. I wonder if I joined you before or after this place burned," Will said out loud to Jack. Will felt a tinge of sadness seeing what could have been and what was left.

"Let us go to the Governor's mansion. Maybe we can find some answers there but we must be careful. It would appear neither of us are welcome here any more."

Will nodded in agreement and as Jack started to walk toward the mansion, Will pulled him back, "this way. I know a way so we wouldn't be seen." Jack stopped and started to follow Will.

It didn't take them very long to get to the mansion. Although things were different, many things were very much the same. They both hid in some over-grown bushes near the front entrance. The mansion was heavy guarded and while Port Royal seemed to be heavily damaged, the mansion looked almost untouched.

There were two guards talking to one another in front of the main door, "At least the Governor and his wife are alright."

Jack looked at Will, "Swan has a wife?"

Will put his finger up to remind Jack to be quiet.

"If anything would have happened to his wife, Governor Norrington would have killed us all," the other guard replied.

Jack and Will's eyes both got big. Will whispered what Jack was thinking, "James Norrington is governor?"

Jack shrugged his shoulders and their eyes turned back to the guards.

"Stand at attention soldier. It looks as if the Governor is finally home."

A carriage came down the drive and stopped near the door. Governor James Norrington exited the carriage. At the same time the front door flew open and Elizabeth came running out. She threw her arms around him and began to kiss him passionately.

"Elizabeth, please. Not in front of the men," Norrington said pushing her away slightly but still smiling.

"I was so worried for you husband. I was afraid those awful pirates might have hurt you."

"I'm fine. I'm just glad that the men were able to protect you from harm, my darling wife. Please let's go inside and have a proper reunion."

Will started to stand up and go towards the house. Jack pulled him down and stopped him, "remember me boy. This is not our world and that certainly is not your Elizabeth."

Jack then pointed to a window to the side that had bushes underneath it and motioned for Will to position himself under it. So both men were able to sneak over and hide themselves in the bushes so they could hear the conversation taking place inside.

"James darling, I had the cook prepare a special meal for you on your return. It's all of your favorites."

"My darling Elizabeth, half of Port Royal is gone and you worried about a meal for me," James sounded a little aggravated with his wife.

"James, I want to see justice done as much as anyone. Why I heard they burned the shops to the ground, including my dressmakers shop. You know how much I hate those pirates dear husband and I have as much if not more reason than anyone. I want you to catch that Captain Sparrow and Turner as quickly as possible."

"I know dear."

"James my birthday is coming up quickly. I can't think of a better birthday present to give me than to see both Sparrow and Turner hang."

"Elizabeth."

"I can't believe I played with the likes of Will Turner as a child. We grew up together, although he was hardly of my class, and then he does this to me. Yes, dear husband a hanging would be a most appropriate present."

"Uh," Jack groaned as he collapsed beside Will then suddenly Will felt the cold steel of a blade against the side of his neck where the hood had been pulled back slightly. He looked up to see the guards standing over Jack.

"And just what did we find lurking in the bushes, some wild animal that ought to be killed?" Will stood up slowly after the guard's statement not wanting to bring more harm on them. Jack was dragged to the front mansion and Will followed slowly behind.

Jack began to regain consciousness and was semi-standing as James Norrington opened the front door. "What is it," he asked the guards angrily.

"Well sir we found these two men lurking outside your window your Govenorship."

"Well lets just see who we have here," James said pushing the hoods back of both men. "Well my darling," he said to Elizabeth who had joined him at the door, "looks like you will get your birthday wish."

"I can't wait to see you both hang," Elizabeth said full of fury. She lunged at Will and James grabbed her around the waist to stop her.

"Why do you hate me so Elizabeth," Will asked his voice unsure and his eyes reflected his hurt and pain.

"How dare you. You have the audacity to ask me that after making me watch while you killed my father. You make me sick Will Turner." Will watched her as she turned around and left in great haste. He lowered his head; never in a lifetime would he have dreamed of hurting her father much less killing the man. What kind of man was this world's Will Turner to cause such hatred.

"Take them to the jail and make sure they are chained to the wall this time," James instructed the guards. "I can see why you have such a reputation with the ladies Mr. Turner. You seem to have my wife eating out of the palm of your hand," he said with a laugh.

"We're not who ye think we are," Jack tried to explain.

"Are you not Captain Jack Sparrow," James said looking at Jack then he turned to Will, "and aren't you Will Turner?"

"Well, we are but not your Captain Jack Sparrow or Will Turner," Jack argued.

"Seems that bump on your head was a little more serious than I thought, too bad for you." James then motioned for them to be taken away. "I'll check on them after I make sure my wife it alright."

"Governor sir, are they to be hanged at dawn," one of the guards asked.

"No," James said. Jack breathed a sigh of relief. "They will be tortured first, especially Turner.

Will and Jack looked at each other as they began their walk to their cells.

"I'm sorry lad. But we'll find away to get out of this. Jack always comes up with a plan," Jack tried to reassure Will. Jack was afraid that Will, after losing his wife Elizabeth then finding this other Elizabeth that hated him, had given up. He was afraid that Will Turner was ready to join his wife. Will did not even look at Jack, his heart was breaking and he had in fact given up.
