I wasn't going to update this quick, but I just want to get this story done. It's just begging me to finish it. So, here it is.

Oh, yeah. And I've heard about Will not being cursed because Elizabeth was faithful and
all that crud..

Well, bah.

Disney has to realize that not everything can have happy endings, so therefore,
Will will remain cursed every ten years.

Disney needs to get over themselves.

They are obsessed with sequels.
They are obsessed with happy, cliche endings. Endings that you can tell at the beginning of the
movie how the movie will end.
(Even when the girl goes around kissing every guy in sight, has three guys, two fiancees, and still marries the hottie while
breaking two hearts? Well, one was dead...but still. Shame on her...me don't likey that one bit.)
They are obsessed with killing moms off.
They are obsessed with the bad guys always losing and everybody ending up all
honkey-dory.

And they are freakin' genuises. And their movies rock even though they are cliche and most of the time, mom-less.

But whatever.

I am not Disney, though I love those people so much, so
Will is cursed.

But still hot.

Nothing can change Orlando/Will's hotness that is hot in all that is hot.
And yes, that made perfect sense.

And I don't think I've killed anyone's mom off yet.

Yet...

I gave you two chapters as an update, just so one chapter wouldn't be like extrememly long.
Yeah. TWO Chapters...

That's completly unlike me.
I LOVE YOU GUYS!

Maelstrom smirked as he looked out of the window, seeing his daughter and Bootstrap walking ever so closer to the cave. Little did they know that he had 'eyes' everywhere. Eric walked into the stone room and said, "Sir? Michelle and Turner should be here by noon."

"Thank you, Eric." Maelstrom replied, turning around to see Eric, confirming Jack and Will's suspicions that Eric was indeed up to something. Eric nodded and said, "When she arrives, I'll bring her to you-"

"-and Turner into the dungeons. His son will want to see him before I stab his heart and kill him." Maelstrom's scarlet eyes seemed to burn a hole into Eric. Eric, freaked out by this, said in an uneasy voice, "Do you need anything else?"

"No."

"Ok, well-" Eric glanced at the chest that he knew had the amethyst in it. Oh, how he wanted that bloody amethyst. He looked back up at Maelstrom who noticed that he was eyeing the chest. Maelstrom strolled over to Erica and asked, "We wouldn't be getting any ideas?"

"Sir?"

Maelstrom narrowed his scarlet eyes, ""YOU HEARD ME!" Maelstrom reached out and grasped Eric by the neck. Eric screamed out in pain as his neck slowly began to turn to stone, "You wouldn't be planning to take the amethyst, would we?"

"No, sir. Never, sir." Eric managed to choke out as the stone grew harder. "Never-" Maelstrom released him from his murderous grasp. Eric fell to the ground, choking, and holding to his now partially stone neck. Maelstrom's red eyes shone a new fire as he looked back out the window.

"Eric, if you don't get me my daughter-" He spat the word 'daughter' as if it was the nastiest word in the English language. "-her death will be yours."

Eric's eyes grew as large as the Amethyst of Baldez itself. Eric managed to get himself of off the cold, stone floor and coughed, "I will, sir."

"Good." Maelstrom said, advancing on the man, "Because, unlike last time, there won't be a next time. GO! And don't you dare return until she is in your hands."

Eric bowed and ran from the room. The two guards shut the wood doors as Maelstrom walked over to the chest and stared at it, smiling to himself as he said, "It's only a matter of time." He laughed to himself.

It was nearing noon as Bootstrap and Elle made it to the path that led directly to the cave. Michelle had been thinking of her mother, and when Boostrap interrupted her thoughts.

"Are you worried?"

She was almost scared when he asked that. They had both been so quiet, that his voice harshly broke the silence. She smiled, though, and said, "A little."

The old pirate smiled. Michelle knew at that instant why she always heard Jack say that Will looked just like his father. It was evident, though Bootstrap was a bit old, he was still as Elle would have pictured Will. Could Will grow old, I mean. She knew that Will was always going to be young. While she grew old, Will would remain 24.

That caused her to think. She would really be living a half-life. She probably wouldn't go on the Dutchman with Will, so she'd wait every ten years for him to return. In ten years, she'd be 31...ten years from that...41...ten years from that...51...

Could she do it? Could she live a half-life? Growing older while her love remains the same age? Then, when she died, he would still be alive. In pain, once again, for watching his love die. She knew she wouldn't end up on the Dutchman. She had faith.

And she didn't fear death.

"-though Will was a wreck when William died." Bootstrap had said. She looked up at the old man, who had obviously been talking for a while. She thought it rude to ask him what he had been saying for the past five minutes, so asked instead, "Who exactly was William?"

"Will's son."

Michelle stopped dead in her tracks when he said the word 'son'. Bootstrap looked surprised and asked, "Did he not- oh no."

"Yes, he forgot to mention his son." Elle said, in a confused voice. She was about to ask him how William had died, when something sharp pierced the skin in her neck. Her eyes clouded over, and soon all she saw was darkness.

♥♥♥♥

"Yo ho, yo ho. A pirate's life for me."

Will smiled down at his son, and rested an arm on him. His son never thought it weird that he was nearing 20, and his father,
(technically speaking) was only four years older than he.

"When do you go back out to sea?" William asked, not taking his eyes off of the ocean.

Will sighed, and said, "Tomorrow."

William turned around and wrapped his arms around his father tightly. Will returned the hug as a single tear rolled down his cheek.

He left the next morning. William and Elizabeth stood on the cliff and watched him sail away.

The news came a few years later that William had died just two days after Will had left.

"William? Will!" Jack smacked Will's head so hard that Will fell back and hit the side of the dungeon. Being made of stone, Will knew that there was going to be a rather big bump on his head in a few hours.

"Jack!" Will said, pushing the ageless captain off of him. "What the hell- What are you doing?"

Grant and Davy were also watching Jack with some amuesment. Somehow or another, Jack had managed to get out of, not only his chains, but everyone elses as well. Will looked up in amazement as he said, "How did he-"

"Don't ask questions." Grant said in a half bored half amuesed. "The onlt explanation you need is he's Jack. There's not telling what he did." Will nodded in agreement as he turned to watch as Jack tossed the chain rope he had made out of the window.

"Ok, I do believe that I am the most important person in this room, so I'll go first." Jack said, hopping on to the window. Grant made a disapproving grunt, and said, "Will's getting married, he should go first."

"No, Captain Sparrow." Will said, shaking his head. "I'm immortal. If they catch me, they can't do anything to me unless they have the key. Michelle has it. So one of you needs to go first."

"Master Turner." Davy's voice called out from somewhere in the shadows. Will turned to look, but didn't see anyone, which made him more uneasy. "Don't mind me askin', but my daughter...she put the charm on you?"

"Yes."

"How many days ago was that?"

"Three?" Will asked himself. "Three."

"If they catch you, and keep your prisoner, you'll die because you won't be on your ship-" But Davy didn't have the chance to finish, because Will had already gotten up and said, "Get out of the way, Jack."

"Whoa, there, eunuch." Jack said, pushing him back. "No, no."

"Yes, yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"Jack, I've got to find Michelle." Will said, looking Jack in the eye. Jack's features were highlighted as the moon-light seeped thru the window. Jack wrinkled his nose and said, "Ah, yes. But I've got to find the amethyst."

"Which is more important?" Will asked him, in a stern voice.

"Think before ya answer that, Sparrow. " Davy remarked in a scarily calm voice. "I'd think it be best to let Master Turner go." Jack mumbled something, and shoved the chains at Will. Will smiled, though not pleasantly, and made his way down the chains.

"Never thought I'd see the day." He hissed with a smile. Eric stood, trembling in the corner as the man paced the floors of the caves upper room. The young girl struggled in chains as he carefully walked around her, not wanting to touch her. There was no need to kill her yet. "Ah, you look just like your mother. " He said, smiling as he looked down at the young girl dressed in an Asian-styled princess outfit. Michelle didn't know this, but it was the same dress Elizabeth had worn. From Pirate King to Pirate King, Maelstrom had put it on her to tease her.

"It looks as if our little journey is coming to an end? Doesn't it, darling?" He narrowed his scarlet eyes at her as an evil grin spread across his once handsome face. Now, it was aged and wrinkled. She rolled her eyes and spat at him, "It's not goint to be a good end for you."

"Oh, my dear. Darling daughter, it will be a very happy and joyous end for me." He leaned down closer to her and spat in her face, "Watching you die a slow and painful death, while I sail away after your damn mother frees me from this curse. There's nothing you can do to stop me, my sweet. I've already won this ridiculous game we've been playing for years."

Michelle narrowed her emeralds at him and said, "You won't win."

"Ah, how awful of me." Maelstrom said, in a mock polite voice. "Eric, how could I have forgotten?" He gasped as he turned to look at the man trembling in the corner, "We're in the presence of royalty." He bowed, and said, "Your Highness."

Eric smiled at that, out of instinct. He learned quickly that it was best for him to get on his master's good side than to make him mad. Maelstrom raised back up, glancing at the chest that held the amethyst as if to make sure it was still there. He motioned for Eric to take the Asian-styled princess hat that was on his desk. Eric smiled, and placed the hat on Michelle's head. Michelle didn't know this, but it was the exact same hat Sao Fang had placed on Elizabeth's head the day she was put against her will on his ship. The day she became King. Maelstrom turned back to his daughter, and hissed, "Now, dear. Be a good girl. Tell daddy where the key is."

She shook her head hard, causing the beads on the crown to shake, "You're not my father."

"Oh, Michelle." He said, sitting on the edge of the desk that was in the corner of the room. Michelle watched as the lone corner that was still wood, quickly turned to stone. She looked back up at him as he said, "Darling, I beg to differ. My blood runs through your veins."

"That's the only thing you ever gave me." She replied cooly, watching his face fall. He rolled his eyes and said, "Aye, it might have been one of the only things that I've given you, but it seems as though our relative has given you more." He narrowed his eyes and a smile was plastered across is pale skin as he said in a victorious tone, "Elizabeth."

"I have no idea what the hell you're talking about." She smirked as she said, "Bobby."

That caused Eric to laugh, as he momentarily dropped his hands from his neck, whispering, "Bobby." Maelstrom turned quickly on his heels as he yelled at the man, "DO YOU WANT ME TO FINISH OFF YOUR NECK?!?!?"

That comment took Michelle by surprise, but when she saw the trembling, white as a ghost man, she realized what he had meant by that. Eric's hands immediatley went back to his neck as he managed to squeak out a quiet, "N-n-no, s-sir." Michelle watched in complete horror as a chunk of stone fell from Eric's crumbling neck. She looked back up at her father, completely disgusted.

"Well, then." He said in a calm voice, but immediatley turning back to a scream, "SHUT UP!" Eric fell farther back into the corner, for fear that Maelstrom would turn him into complete stone. Maelstrom turned back to his daughter and said, "Where is the damn key?"

"Why should I tell you?" She asked him, smiling sweetly up at him. "Maybe I haven't a clue as to where it is."

"William Turner is your fiancee!" He said, leaning closer to her and yelling, "Where is the key?!?"

"Why do you need it?" She asked him, questioning. "I mean, why would a man like you need that key?"

"You are stalling me, Michelle! WHERE THE HELL IS THAT DAMN KEY?"

"Stalling?" Michelle laughed, good-naturedly. "Darling, I never stall..."

She removed her hands from the grasp, and the chains immediatley fell to the ground as she took her sword and sliced Maelstrom in the face, causing him to yell out in pain, "How did you do that?"

She smiled as she ran to the door, "You don't need to ask how I did it. All you need to know is that I did it."

"ERIC!" Maelstrom shrieked an ear-piercing shriek as he attempted to pull himself off of the floor without progress. He wiped away some of the blood that was pouring down his face and yelled, "What the hell are you waiting for? AFTER HER!"

Eric wasted no time after Michelle somehow disarmed the guards with the same trick Jack accused her of cheating with, and ran down the stairs that led to the cave.

"GET BACK HERE!" She heard Eric yell from upstairs.

"Miss Swann." Came a thick Asian accent from her right. She shuddered at the sound, before turning to face Sao Fang in the face. He raised his sword and she dodged it. They fought up until Michelle almost fell off of the stair's railing. "Give up, Miss Swann?"

"No. Of course not, darling." She said, smiling. She jumped on to the railing and looked down at how far the jump was. Only about a little over 20 feet. She looked back at Sao Fang and said, "Ta."

After giving a mock salute, she jumped, leaving a shocked Sao Fang behind. She took out her sword, and hooked it on the the lower railing. As she hung on that lone rail, she looked back up at the 20 feet she had just fallen. She gaped at that, before swinging on the the rail and falling just a few feet on to the stone floor.

She brushed her self off, and ran as fast as she could (which was pretty fast) to the cave's opening, which was amazing that she was running as fast as she was considering what she was wearing. "Oh my gosh..." She whispered to herself when she saw Barbossa walk out from the cave. He hadn't spotted her yet, and she wanted to keep it that way.

Just like it was on a cue or something, Jack appeared out of a bush and yelled. "Ellie! How are you, lo-AH!" She tackled him and they rolled into a bush. Ignoring the awkward position that they were in (him on the ground, and her straddling him), she kept her hand firmly over his mouth as Barbossa paced dangeroulsy close to the bush they were hiding in. It seemed like hours, before he walked back into the cave.

"Should I be worried at all?" Came a semi-amused voice from above her.

"EW!" Michell cried, removing her hand from Jack's mouth. "He licked me! What kind of person does that?"

"This kind of person!" Jack said, pushing Elle off of him and getting out of the bush. Will was obviously confused, though nonetheless, took Elle's hand and pulled her up off the ground. Elle wiped her hand on her dress, as she felt Will's gaze on her.

She looked up to face Will and asked, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah." He said, though he wasn't. He took a gulp and said, "It's just you look like..." He trailed off. He didn't have to finish. They both knew who he was going to say. Michelle smiled sadly and said, "Sorry, Will. I'd change if I could."

Jack smirked, causing Elle to say, "Whatever you were about to say, keep it inside your head."

Jack's smirk turned evil as he said, "Oh, love. Are you sure? I thought it was a great idea." He tugged on her dress just a little as he walked past her. She rolled her eyes, and was about to say something, when her gaze fell on Will again.

"Will..."

"Darling, I'm fine." He said, shaking thoughts of her out of his mind. "I'm fine."

She smiled and leaned up and kissed him. He laughed as he wrapped an arm around her waist and said, "Might I ask you something?"

"What?" She asked him, following Jack down the stone hill.

"How did you get out of there?"

She smiled again and said, "You don't have to know how, as long as you know I did it." She instantly remembered about William, but she decided that they had the rest of their lives to talk about that.

Which could be only about an hour, so...
