Nora Raven in At World's End

Ramona Sparrow (Turner)

I was in nothing but darkness and saw a light. I looked around and saw a newborn in a basket. It was sleeping peacefully. I did not know what the point of me seeing this was.

I picked it up, carefully cradling its head. I felt a connection with this child. One I could not understand myself. Just then Tia Dalma appeared in front of me. No. Calypso.

"She be your child. The one who save us from a fate of death. A triangle. A witch. A pirate." She looked at me and I shook my head.

"It was over a few weeks." I look down at the child and shake my head. "No. With him?"

"Keep safe."

I was awoke by a gentle breeze of the ocean. I put my hand on my stomach and got up from the deck. I saw Barbossa at the wheel and looked at him. "Barbossa. Where is Jack?"

He turned his head and looked at me. "Jack be over at the other end of the Pearl. Rum got him."

I stood up and kept my hand where it was. "Barbossa. I am with child."

He went silent for a moment and I looked over at Jack who lay passed out drunk from the rum he drank. "Ye going to tell Jack?"

"No. Leave him in Tortuga and we sail with the Black Pearl."

We sailed away after, sending Elizabeth to Port Royal where she decided to retire from piracy and live her life.

I am pregnant with a little Sparrow and I talked with Lizzie. She is having her own place and I will remain on the ship. When I have little Sparrow, she will be with Lizzie. Lizzie will keep her safe. I will stay the first year and then leave.

I am needed to keep up with Blackbeard. My father. The true father. I was never related to Elizabeth. I was never a Swann. I am a Raven and daughter of an Evil Pirate.

"Barbossa! Time to leave." I watched him as he laughed and sailed the ship away. We made distance away from the port of Tortuga and I held my stomach. "Barbossa. This adventure with Black Beard. He is a killer and my father. This is my battle."

"The child ye carry. It is not safe while you are alone."

I smiled and stared at the horizon. We have another adventure and this little one will learn about her father in time.

10 YEARS LATER

I make my way to shore in a long boat. My venture took longer than it should have and it has been two years. She was eight at the time. I miss her dearly and wrote letters constantly.

Little Ramona Sparrow. Her false surname she uses is Turner. I made contact with will and he agreed it was best for her. Henry and Ramona are sprouting like seeds. I made my way to see Elizabeth and Ramona come running to me. It was time for her to learn about Jack Sparrow. Her father. She had his facial features. The only thing she got from me was my green eyes and natural, thin, straight hair.

I pick her up in my arms and hold her tight to me. "You got taller. It is time you learn about who you have as a father. The famous Captain Jack Sparrow. Heart of the Black Pearl and his love for the sea."
