Well....you asked for it, here is the next Chapter
__________________________

Elizabeth, pale and perspiring, fans herself weakly, oblivious to the music and chatter. Norrington notices Elizabeth and approaches her, not taking notice of her situation.

Norrington: May I have a moment?

Norrington extends his arm, and Elizabeth takes it. He walks her away from the party, toward the parapet, a rather too long of a silence was present as Norrington works up his courage.

Norrington: You look lovely, Elizabeth

Elizabeth frowns, unable to focus, but Norrington mistakes her expression as disapproval, so he continues to speak.

Norrington: I apologise if I seem forward, but I must speak my mind. This promotion throws into sharp relief that which I have not yet achieved, a marriage to a fine woman. You have become a fine woman, Elizabeth.

Elizabeth: I can't breathe.

Norrington: [Smiles] Yes, I’m a bit nervous myself.

Norrington turns around, and fails to noticed that Elizabeth had lost her balance and was stumbling away. She reaches a hand out to the parapet to steady herself, but it slides off, ad she vanishes over the wall. Gone.

Elizabeth plummets from the top of the cliff, down towards the sea. Back at the Navy Docks, Jack tells a story to the attentive sentries while Blue just patiently waits, forming a masterplan to get what he and his Father want.

Jack: And then they made me their Chief....

Blue: Amazing story, as always

Jack: Thank you, thank you

But then, Blue, Jack and the sentries react to the sound of someone hitting the water, and that someone was Elizabeth Swann who narrowly missed the jagged rocks.

Blue: What are the chances of suicide here?

Jack: High, apparently

With Norrington, he eventually turns around and finds Elizabeth missing.

Norrington: Elizabeth? [Looks Over] Elizabeth! My God!

Norrington leaps to the top of the parapet, prepared to dive, a lieutenant, Gillette, catches his arm before he could end up dead.

(Gillette, the best a man can get)

Gillette: The rocks, sir! It's a miracle she missed them!

Norrington shakes off his arm, looks down, and realises Gillette is right. He jumps down and runs to find another way to save Elizabeth.

Underwater, an unconscious Elizabeth continues to sink deeper into the water, and it seemed like her fate was sealed. Back with the Pirates and Navy Soldiers, they were still in shock from the sight, while Blue was wondering if they should do something.

Jack: Will you be saving her, then?

Mullroy: I can't swim.

Murtogg shakes his head, meaning he can't as well. Jack wasn't surprised and Blue laughs to himself.

Jack: Prides of the King's Navy, you are. Boy, you know what to do

Blue: You what mate?

Jack: You heard me, go and save her

Blue: [Sighs] Oh fine

Blue gets ready, and dives into the water to save Elizabeth. She continued to drifts down, still unconscious, and the medallion slips loose from her bodice. It turns slowly, until the skull is fully visible, a shaft of filtered sunlight hits it, and it glint.
