Hey :) So, before I begin I would just like to let you all know that a TRAILER has been made for this series by PirateNinjaCJS...

This time, I could hear before I could see.

How long had it been? How long has it been since I last saw my darling Jack? A booming crash behind me told me that it hadn't been long at all. Could it be that it had literally only been seconds of Jack's time since I had last been here?

My eyes snapped open. Jack was still kneeling by my body and the door was still shaking on its hinges. It had truly only been a matter of seconds since I had last been here. How was that even possible? It was then that I decided not to question what went on while I was in this state. Hardly anything was making much sense and it seemed like an equal amount of things were completely out of my control.

There was one slight change from the last time that I was here- Jack had noticed that the door was close to breaking. He'd seen it, but he wasn't moving. "Jack!" I shouted to him as I ran towards the door, even though I knew he couldn't hear me. "Get out of here."

Parts of the door were splintering and cracking under the strain of being beaten down repeatedly. I was sure that I didn't have long, what I wasn't sure of was whether or not I can help. I turned and pressed my shoulder against the door. I couldn't properly feel the wood, but I could feel the vibrations of it moving and I think that somehow I was sort of helping to hold the door together longer than it would have without me exerting all my effort over it. I heard a baby begin to cry and I looked down at Rebecca. It wasn't her. I looked back up to see that Nyssa had come back into the room with my baby boy in her arms. He was crying.

"Jack," Nyssa said quietly, setting my son down.

"No!" I shouted to her. "No! Don't! You all have to get out of here!"

Of course she didn't hear me; she just walked further away from my son. At least she had set him down far from Jack, so that if the worst happened he had a lower chance of being harmed. I wasn't happy about him being in this room. I needed him moved, but how could I possibly do anything? I was getting used to being completely hopeless, but I would never be able to accept it. It would never stop distressing me.

"Jack," Nyssa said again. "You should come away now." Jack didn't say anything. He didn't move for a while, and then he looked up.

"Give me my son," he said his voice thick and his eyes brimming with tears. Nyssa hesitated.

"No! Don't!" I groaned to myself, watching Nyssa pause.

"Give him to me!" Jack shouted. Nyssa moved to pick him up. The door shuddered behind me. She handed him over. Whatever was holding the door together finally gave in and it split open. Jack and Nyssa both looked sharply up. If screaming at them in frustration for reacting at the last possible moment would have made a difference I would have done it. Redcoats poured in through the door and I was powerless to stop them. Isaacio sprang out from nowhere and he and Nyssa began to take them on using methods I'd never seen before. It seemed that Atlantisians could fight harder that I thought was possible and they had all kinds of strange magic… science- whatever they called it- to help them.

Two of the Redcoats were out cold within their first few steps through the door.

"No!" Jack said as Isaacio turned to face George. I watched Jack lay our son lovingly down next to my body and then rise to his feet to look at George with hatred in his eyes. "He's mine," he snarled, drawing his sword.

George had just noticed my body lying on the ground. "Isabel," he whispered at his fight faltered. The men he was leading saw his hesitation and they hesitated too, completely bewildered by what was going on. I saw Barbossa, who had been fighting with them, stop in his tracks. It was a hesitation that cost them all. It gave Nyssa and Isaacio enough time to throw something into the air which bound and secured all of them except George. Isaacio nodded to Jack. His request had been taken into account and he and Nyssa stepped back. What were they doing? This was the stupidest possible move. They needed to get Jack and George as far away from each other as possible. George's wide eyes were still on my body.

"Don't look at her!" Jack snapped. He was shaking. "You don't deserve to look at her."

George raised his eyes to meet Jack's. He looked at him with disgust. "What have you done?"

His question hung heavily in the air. It made Jack flinch. "No… " I said quietly, moving to Jack's side.

"What did you say?" Jack asked. I had never seen him look so dangerous.

"What have you done?" George repeated, louder than before. "What have you done to her?!"

"I would never hurt her," Jack said fiercely. George was angry and for the first time in a long time I saw the George that I used to know. The George who had once been one of my best friends and, in spite of everything that had gone on, still cared about me deeply. I knew how this would look to him and I knew how he would react. However, I didn't know if Jack was in a strong enough place to face him and win. He looked so unstable. His fragility was clear for everyone to see… Everyone including George.

George gave a snort of disbelief. "Well she looks pretty hurt to me," his tone was cold.

A roar of rage erupted from Jack and he sprang forward. His sword clashed against George's and the two of them came face to face. It was the hardest I've ever seen either of them fight. Their blades flashed through the air, clanging and scraping and smashing against each other. Why were Isaacio and Nyssa just standing there? Couldn't they see that the best thing they could do in this situation was to contain George and get him as far away from Jack as possible?

My son began to scream on the floor.

George's eyes flickered towards him. "The baby…" he questioned as he lunged away from Jack's blade. "Is it hers?"

Jack swiped for him again, "He's ours," he corrected. "Mine and Belle's."

It was George's turn to swing for Jack, driving him backwards. "That makes me sick," he said and his upper lip curled. "Was it rape?"

I saw Jack's knuckles turn white as he gripped the hilt of his sword. "Never," his voice was low, but it was firm. "I would never."

"But why would she-"

"She loved me and you know it!" Jack bellowed, regaining control of the fight and backing George into a corner. His anger was driving him, pushing him through and I didn't give much for George's chances.

"Stop," I said quietly. "Please stop."

I willed them to do so, hoping that I could discover some kind of other-worldly powers that could influence what they did. It was all to no avail. "A lot of good it did her too," George scoffed. There was another angry growl from Jack. George's sword almost slipped from his hand, but he regained control of it just in time. "You should have left her with me."

Their swords met mid-air.

"I love her," Jack said as their blades pushed against each other. George laughed.

"You may have fooled her with that, but you're not fooling me," he said. Jack was caught off guard and George's next blow sent his sword flying. George kicked him to the ground and stomped on his back. I screamed. Jack was winded for a moment, but George didn't take advantage of it. He wasn't done saying what he wanted to say. George put his foot in between Jack's shoulder blades and began to press down on them. "If you loved her so much, why didn't you leave her where she was safe?"

Jack coughed, George was obviously doing some damage. "She… wouldn't have… been … happy."

"At least she would have been ALIVE," George bent down and shouted it into Jack's ear. There was a moment of renewed fight in Jack as he twisted to reach for his sword and then turned to swipe at George. Gorge leapt back and Jack sprang to his feet. The two began to circle one another. George was the first to go for Jack. "You killed her, Jack," he said quietly.

"No," Jack moaned, but he didn't sound like he believed it. He knocked the sword from George's hand.

"It was you who took her from where she was safe. It was you who put her life at risk bearing your child. It was you who brought her down here…" Jack had him pinned against the wall. For George, the fight was as good as over, but for some reason it didn't seem like Jack had won. He was shaking… almost crying again. George's words had more than got to him. They were destroying him. "And for what?" George questioned. "Some stupid Fountain… You put her at risk and she died so that you could chase some old myth. That's not love… that's selfishness. She may not have been happy at home, but what good is happiness to her when she's dead?"

"No…" Jack moaned again.

"Face it! You killed her! You are the reason that she is dead," George spat. "So don't you dare tell me that I don't deserve to look at her."

"No…" Jack said softly, tears rolling from his eyes. The blade he was holding at George's throat was shaking. For a second it look like Jack's inner pain might weaken him enough to give George an opportunity to escape, but then Jack's anger began to fuel him again. It was easy enough to see that Jack wasn't just angry with George anymore… his fury was directed to himself.

"Go on then," George taunted as Jack pushed him harder against the wall. "Kill me. Just like you did to Izzy. Go on."

Jack struggled with himself for a moment. "No," he roared. "No… but only because it's not what she would have wanted. You can rot here, but I won't kill you."

Jack used his sword to pin George to the wall and then he walked away. He clenched his shaking hands into fists and walked away. "Look at her," George shouted after him, struggling away from the wall. "LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID!"

Jack could no longer bring himself to look at my body.

George ripped the sword that had him pinned -Jack's sword- out of the wall, freeing himself. Jack had his back to him and didn't notice. George took Jack's sword by the hilt and with a murderous light in his eyes he sprang forwards.

I wasn't the only one who screamed.


Dun dun dun!
