Abigail sat quietly by the cliff where she and Will were to be married. The rain fell softly all around her and sge watched it bounce off the ground. Her dress that was once soft and beautiful was now wet and sticking to her body uncomfortably. Soft footsteps sounded behind her.
She gently turned her head to see Isobel walking toward her through the rain. Isobel stopped once she stood beside where Abigail sat.
"Something is happening." Isobel spoke. Abigail nodded.
"Ships are docking with hundreds of soldiers." Abigail mumbled as she stared down at the ships. Elizabeth came running over to them looking nervous.
"Abigail it's Will, they've arrested him." Elizabeth muttered as water splashed down her face. Abigail handed Elizabeth her bouquet and rushed away. Isobel followed closely.
Will was marched towards them with shackles around his wrists. Abigail ran to him and grasped at his hands.
"What is going on?" She whispered. Isobel and Elizabeth stopped moving when they saw more soldiers coming towards them.
"I don't know Abigail, whatever it is we'll get through it together." He mumbled.
"How sweet! I do love a romantic tragedy." An arrogant voice called out. A man stepped out with a stern look on his face. He looked them all over.
"What is this for? You have no reason to arrest Will!" Abigail exclaimed indignantly. The man chuckled.
"Arrest the ladies carefully please." The man motioned for his soldiers to grab them.
"No!" Will yelled as Abigail was pulled away from him and cuffed. Isobel struggled to get free but failed and was easily shackled.
"Cutler Beckett!" Governor Swann yelled as he made his way over but Beckett ignored him.
"Where is your brother Miss Norrington. He is also to be arrested along with you." Isobel scoffed.
"Ill never tell." She hissed angrily. He chuckled and turned to Governor Swann.
"These individuals are under arrest for helping Jack Sparrow escape the gallows last year. They will be executed as the law requires." Beckett stated simply. Will looked at Abigail in shock.
"You have no proof of this. You cannot execute my daughters with no proof." Beckett chuckled darkly.
"There may be a way to save them. I wish to speak to Master Turner alone." He nodded his head and Will was dragged away from the others.
"Will!" Abigail screamed and tried to get to him but couldn't.
"Take the ladies to cells please. Gently, we wouldn't want to harm their pretty faces." Beckett chuckled. Isobel glared at him as they were dragged away.
...........cells.............
Elizabeth sat in the corner of her cell with watery eyes. Isobel paced impatiently while Abigail merely stood by the door trying to catch a glimpse of anything outside of the prison.
"Will is going to resolve this. If there is a way to save us he'll do it." Isobel muttered Abigail nodded in agreement.
"He's a good man. He won't let us suffer." Abigail added. Elizabeth sighed.
"Of course this had to happen on yoir wedding day. It couldn't have waited until after?" Isobel complained. Abigail nodded sadly.
"We can pick another time. It's simple enough." Abigail replied. Isobel shook her head.
"Im never getting married ever." Isobel leaned against the wall. Governor Swann came down the stairs in a hurry. Elizabeth and Abigail rushed as close to him as they could get.
"Whats going on? Anything from Will?" Abigail asked. He nodded.
"Beckett is offering him a deal to save you all. I don't know what it entails but it cant be that simple. You'll get out of this one way or another." He reached through and held onto his daughters hands.
"Im just happy James isn't here." Isobel spoke as she climbed up the stone wall a bit to get a look out the window.
"James would know a logical solution." Elizabeth added.
"Either way, once you get free you must leave here quickly. I don't trust Beckett or his deals. He has other motives behind everything." Governor Swann mumbled. Will climbed down the steps and rushed over to Abigail. He grasped her hand through the cell bars.
"What did he say?" She asked. Isobel looked at them.
"I have to find Jack. If I bring Beckett his compass we'll go free. It should be easy enough." Will mumbled. Elizabeth shook her head.
"How will you even find him? He could be dead for all we know." Elizabeth sighed sadly.
"Elizabeth is right. It's too risky. Besides you can't trust Beckett or Sparrow." Governor Swann tried to reason but Isobel stepped in.
"Have more faith is Jack. He helped save Elizabeth and Abigail last year that earned him some trust with me." Isobel defended.
"If Will believes he can do it I'm going to support him." Abigail squeezed Wills hand and he smiled sadly.
"Where will you look first?" Isobel asked.
"Ill start on Tortuga. Even if he isn't there Tempest will be and she can help find him." Will stated. Abigail nodded.
"I love you. Be careful." He nodded and kissed her knuckles then took off. Abigail watched with watery eyes.
"It'll be ok. He'll do it he's too stubborn to quit." Elizabeth stroked her sisters back comfortingly.
"It's Jack we have to worry about. Who knows where he is or what he's doing. A lot can change in a year." Isobel sat down.
"You just defended him moments ago? What changed?" Abigail asked with a slight glare.
"I was trying to give Will hope. He'll need it." Isobel defended herself. "Besides, even if you trust Jack, he's still Jack, He'll betray you in a moment if it gets him what he wants." Abigail sighed and closed her eyes.
"Will can do it. He has to." She mumbled.
