It was now proven, people can die of boredom. Elizabeth had been in the same cell for 2 days with absolutely nothing to do and she was bored out of her mind. It only took a couple hours to use up whatever entertainment prison had, and after that there wasn't much else to do from inside a cell. Except growl at the other inmates, who took turns trying to talk to her.
Will had been in the cell next to her yesterday but they took him out to question him today. Atleast she assumed they were questioning him, she wasn't all that familier with how the law system works. She hoped he wasn't getting harmed or anything of that sort.
She wondered how the Sparrow's would get out. Jack would probably talk the guard to death while Lily dug a tunnel or something. They were insane like that, which was why she liked them.
Something crashed down the stairs which made Elizabeth look up. She smiled when she saw Will and her father rushing down the stairs. Will automatically kneeled infront of the cell and checked her for any injuries.
"Oh Will are you alright?"
"Yes i'm fine. I just had a...meeting, with Beckett. He proposed a trade, Jack's compass for our freedom."
"Jack's compass? What does Beckett want with that?"
"I don't know but I must go find him. I'm sure once Lily hears we're in prison she'll make Jack hand over his compass."
Elizabeth was confused. Why didn't Beckett just go hunt down Jack himself? And why did he want a broken compass? She thought about it then heard her father say, "You would risk your life to save the Sparrow's does not mean that they would do the same for anyone else."
"Father you're wrong. Jack and Lily are good people, dispite being pirates." She huffed. She turned to Will and made him come closer so she could kiss him on the cheek. "I have faith in you, all of you. Where will you find them?"
"Tortuga. I'll start there and won't stop until I find him. I promise you'll be out of here before you know it." Will replied. He kissed her on her hand then ran out. Governor Swann huffed and looked at Elizabeth forlornly.
"Elizabeth..."
"I'll be fine Father."
Swann left with a plan hatching in his head, while Elizabeth sat back on her cot and looked out a hole in the stone. She saw the boats at the dock setting sail so she tryed to spot Will. When she didn't see him she gazed out to sea to try and picture the Black Pearl coming, with Jack, Lily and Will at the helm. It settled her nerves but they arose again when the in-mates decided to cat call her for the hundreth time.
Sighing she wished Will a safe journey, and she hoped he wouldn't do anything stupid.
"Jack are you mad?!" Lily barked angrily. She had followed Jack into his cabin and waited until he was nice and comfertable to start yelling at him. With a bottle of rum in their hands Jack was trying to ignore her while mapping out their course.
"Some may say so Lily darling." He mumbled.
"Why in the hell are we going after Jone's stupid heart? You really don't need to be in the spotlight with him...again! And what's more it's been about 13 years, he'll kill you if he finds you!"
"Lily, luv, sit down and we'll talk abou' this like men. Or man and women. Or brother and sister. Whichever."
Lily glared at him but sat in the chair across from him. He tapped his compass again before giving up and leaning back in his chair to look at her. "Aye it's been nearly 13 years. Which is why we're going after the chest. I can't bear to lose the Pearl and you again. If we have the chest we can bargain with Jone's."
