TOGETHER AGAIN

Jesse and Kat made their way through the crowded docks. They pushed their way through crowds of sailors and merchants.

"Ok, so if Mom's married to the Commodore, that means she's probably living in one of the larger houses around here."

Jesse nodded in agreement, "We should head to the town square then."

Jesse and Kat started walking for the town square; road met flesh as Kat and Jesse ran headlong into someone and fell. Kat and Jesse got to their feet and helped the young woman they had just run into, get back to her feet. A young man with black hair pushed his way through the crowd towards the girls.

"Hey! What gives!?" the man shouted, obviously furious. The woman placed her hand on the man's shoulder, "Calm down Will, it was an accident." Will loosened up a bit, "Still, they should have been watching where they were walking." He muttered under his breath. Kat drew her sword and pressed it to Will's throat with bullet speed, "You want to say that to my face!?"

Will backed up, "Who are you?"

Jesse placed her hand on Kat's sword and moved it away from Will, "We're known as the Sparrows. Who's asking?" The couple looked at each other in wonder; the young woman stepped in front of Will, "My name is Elizabeth Swann. I'm Governor Swann's daughter and this is my husband, William Turner."

Kat sheathed her sword, "Nice to meet you. Can you two help us?" Will and Elizabeth both nodded.

"Do you know a woman by the name of Alana?"

Alana grasped the sword in her hands tightly. The man walked behind her, but stopped.

"You seem somewhat familiar, luv, have I met you before?"

"No, I don't think so." Alana said slyly.

"I don't know, you look familiar. Turn around and let me have a look at ya." Alana slowly turned around and faced her husband. Jack gave a little gasp, "Alana?" Jack touched Alana's cheek, "Oh my god, it is you!" Alana took her husband's hand in her own and smiled.

"You're alive."

Jack smiled, "Of course I'm alive, I would never leave you." Jack pulled Alana into a tight embrace and kissed her tenderly on the lips.

The door to the shop opened as four young people walked inside. Jack drew himself away from Alana to see who the newcomers were. A huge smile spread across Jack's face; today was truly a wonderful day. Will and Elizabeth stopped short as their gaze fell upon Jack.

"Jack? What are you doing here?" Will asked, glad to see his friend again.

"I've come to get my wife." Jack put his arm around Alana's waist and pulled her close, "And to find my children."

"Well Father, you're not going to have to go far."

Alana and Jack looked behind Will and Elizabeth; Jesse and Kat ran up to their parents and gave them a huge hug.

"Oh my, you two have grown." Alana looked Kat over and gave her another hug. Jack hugged Jesse and gave her a pat on the back.

"Let's get out of here and do some catching up."

Alana turned to Will and Elizabeth, "Would you care to join us?" Will and Elizabeth smiled and followed the Sparrows to the docks.

"Then we commandeered this ship and have been sailing the seas ever since." Jesse was just finishing telling her parents all that had happened to her and her sister since they were separated. Alana and Jack were sitting at a table in the main cabin of the Black Dragon. Also sitting at the table was Jesse, Kat, Jed, Ehelm, Gibbs, Will, and Elizabeth.

"Where did you find such a fine crew?" Alana asked, looking at Jed and Ehelm.

"The same place you and dad found your crew mom."

"Tortuga?" Kat asked.

"Tortuga." Alana smiled as Kat gave a little laugh.

"So, now that the Sparrows are back together, what should we do?" Jack asked, looking around the table for suggestions.

"Well, before we do anything, we should get as far away from Port Royal as possible." Alana said.

Jack stood up, "I agree. Gibbs, I'm giving you temporary leadership of the Pearl, I'm going to sail with my daughters for a while.

Kat smiled, "We'll enjoy the company."

Mr. Gibbs left. Kat and Jesse made their way onto the deck, "Lift anchor! Set sail!" Kat and Jesse shouted. Men jumped to their positions, obeying the captain's orders. Jesse took the wheel and Kat stood next to her. Alana and Jack observed the scene for a moment, then joined their daughters.

" This is an impressive operation you two have here." Jack said looking around.

Jesse looked at the men bustling about below her; her eyes fell upon Ehelm, "Yes, yes, very impressive."

Next to them the Black Pearl began to sail. The wind caught the sails of the Black Dragon and together the sister ships sailed toward an adventure.

Commodore Lee Norrington paced back and forth; he was furious. It was two o'clock in the afternoon and Alana was nowhere to be found. The door to the Commodore's office opened and a young officer came in.

"Commodore sir. There have been reports that Captain Jack Sparrow has docked sir."

Lee stopped cold, "Thee Captain Jack Sparrow?"

"Yes sir."

Lee's hands curled into fists; he now knew why Alana was not here.

"Tell my crew to prepare to set sail within the hour."

The young officer left. Lee moved to the window and looked out at the ocean, "I have a debt to settle."
