-Next Morning-

Jack stood at the gallows in the main square, and I stood next to Norrington while me and Jack kept eye contact most of the time. "Jack Sparrow, you have been charged... for your tried and convicted for your willful commission of crime against the crown, said crimes being numerous in quantity and sinister in nature. The most egregious of these to be sited herewith: piracy, smuggling." A man spoke. "This is wrong," I said. "Commodore Norrigton is bound by the law, as are we all." My father said, and Will suddenly approached us. "Elizabeth...I shouldn't have told you every day from the moment I've met you. I love you." He said. Before anyone could reply, he ran through the crowd right to Jack. Elizabeth and I knew what he was planning, so Elizabeth faked falling unconscious, and Norrington and my father immediately turned to her and tried to wake her.

Will threw a sword under Jack's feed when the lever was pulled and he was about to be hung. I quickly made my way down, followed by my father and Norington, as Jack and Will made an escape. They got surrounded by the soldiers, and we all approached them. "I thought we might have to endure some manner of ill-conceived escape attempt, but now from you." The commodore said, pointing his weapon at Will. "On our return to Port Royal, I granded you clemency, and this is how you thank me, by throwing in your lot with him? He's a pirate," the father said. "And a good man. If all I have achieved here is that the hangmanb will earn two pairs of boots instead of one, so be it. At least my conscience will be clear." Will said. "You forget your place, Turner." "It's right here, between you and Jack." Will said, and I now stepped forward. "As is mine." I stood and stepped in front of Jack and Will. "Y/n." My father said, and now Elizabeth also walked over to us. "Elizabeth," my father said again. "Lower your weapons." My father spoke. "For goodness' sake, put them down!" He said, and the weapons got lowered. I turned to Jack and gave him an unsure smile. "Thanks, love." He said it with a grin. And I turned back to the Commodore. "So this is where your heart treuly lies, then?" he asked me, and I slowly nodded. "It is." I answered, and Jack then pulled me back from Norrington. "Well, I'm actually feeling rather good about this. I think we've all arrived at a very special place. Spiritually, ecumenically, grammaically." He said to my father and then walked over to the Commodore.

"I want you to know that you'd never had a chance with her. Kow that." He said and pointed at me. "Elizabeth, It would've never worked between us, Darling; I'm rooting more for your sister." He said and grinned while I tried to hide my blush. "Will, nice hat." He grabbed me and walked over to the edge. "Friends. This is the day that you will always remember as the day that" He started, but as he stepped back, he stumbled and fell down from the cliff, pulling me right after him. Jack held me close as we hit the water. Jack held the both of us up, and we then noticed the black pear on the horizon. We swam closer, and with a rope, Jack and I got pulled up. "Weren't you supposed to keep to the code?" Jack asked. "We figured they were more actual... guidelines." He helped and pulled Jack up. He handed Jack the hat, and Jack pulled me up from the ground. "Captain Sparrow," Anamaria said. The Black Pearl is yours." She said and put a cloath over my shoudler. Jack puled me to the steering wheel and yelled at the crew. "On deck, you scabrous dogs! Hands to braces! Let go and haul to tun free! Now..bring me that horizon." Jack said and grinned as he pulled me to his side.
