After the events of what happened at the fountain of youth, Jack Sparrow was sat in his cabin thinking deeply. Could she have been saying the truth? He thought. He thought she was lying but when he looked into her eyes, there was a twinkle of truth. But he left her. He left her on that godforsaken speck of land. What if I am a father. No. I was never that drunk during that time period. I would never bed Angelica. He argued in his mind.

In Tortuga, a ship docked and a woman walked off, soft brown hair and a firey temper. Angelica. She was holding an infant in her arms. She was seething in anger. When she has Jack Sparrow in her arms again. She'll kill him. The infant giggled and suckled her thumb. Angelica couldn't help but smile. "I'll never leave you my precious Sparrow" Angelica vowed.

Onto the main story.

Jaquelyn Sparrow's POV

After my mother died last week I've been finding a way to get myself off this blasted island. I held the doll of my father in my hand as I saw a navy ship in the distance. Desperate to get off the island, I grabbed some rum, made a fire and watched the smoke rise up into the air; alerting the ship. The ship stopped and a longboat came closer and closer until it was pulled up onto the beach, the man that stepped out was tall and wearing a silly white wig and his eyes, oh his eyes, they were beautiful. "Are you alright Miss?" He asked, looking at me with concern. I nodded and cleared my throat, "please get me off this island, I was involved in a shipwreck some weeks ago that killed my mother. Could you give me a ride to somewhere that isn't this blasted island?" I asked politely, to hear the man chuckle. "We'll take you to Port Royal, I'm sure the tailor can get you some suitable clothes and we can find you a home to live in." He was about to turn away before looking at me and tilting his head, "what's your name?" I gulped and curtsied, "Jaquelyn Teach" his eyes narrowed but he sighed, "I'm Commodore Norrington." He lead me to the longboat and I sat down in the boat as some crew rowed the longboat back to the ship.

When we arrived in Port Royal I was lead to a tailor by the Commodore and he left me to get measured. I must say this though, the port is rather posh and nothing like what I'm used to, I'm also kind of angry that they took my doll as it was the only link to who my father was. When the tailor was done making my new dress, he put me in it and the Commodore paid for it and walked out with me, "the Governor has stepped up to adopt you, Miss. He has a daughter, Elizabeth I'm sure you two will get along." He explained as he lead me to a grand mansion which I now knew as the Governors mansion. Norrington knocked on the door and a maid answered the door, "yes?" She asked with a bright smile on her face, "I'm here with Governor Swann's new adopted daughter" Norrington said with an emotionless face, the maid let me in and thanked Norrington. I took one look around and I do say, I'm happy this is my new home but I feel as though its not going to last long. Something is coming, I can feel it.

Two weeks later I'm woken up by multiple maids rushing in with a new dress, I sit up and sigh as I ask, "what's the occasion today?" The maids smiled and helped me out of bed to get me ready, "there's to be a hanging today, Miss, the most notorious Pirate, Jack Sparrow has been caught and now faces the gallows, what fun don't you think m'lady?" They asked me and I nodded, shaken by the fact that a man shared a last name with me. Elizabeth knocked on the door and then entered, "could you leave us for a moment?" She asked a maid and then all leave, I walk out in my dress and Elizabeth tightened the corset on my back until I told her to stop. Elizabeth then looks at me and smiled, "I feel sorry for Jack, he does not deserve to hang. He saved my life the other day" she mumbled and I hugged her smiling, "Lizzy he'll find a way to escape like he did the other day." I assured her, smiling gently. At the hanging I was stood up out of the sun with Lizzy, Governor Swann and Norrington, we all watched the pirate walk up to the noose and the executioner follow to the lever. "This is wrong" me and Elizabeth said and Governor Swann sighed, "Commodore Norrington is bound to the law, as are we all" he informed me and Elizabeth. I saw a man walk forward and greet all of us, "Elizabeth, I should've told you every second since the day I met you... I love you" he confessed before disappearing through the crowd and stopping Jack from falling as the executioner pulled the lever by throwing his sword into the wood below. I watched and noticed Elizabeth grin, she knew what they were attempting, once the sound of ruckus stopped, Governor Swann took us down to the pirate and the man and started rambling. "You forget your place Turner." Norrington said dangerously to the man who I now knew as Turner, he replied with a smirk "its right here, between you and Jack" Elizabeth walked forward, "as is mine" she said firmly and I saw Norrington look sad. He loved her. I sighed and walked forward, "mine too" I stood beside Lizzy. After a while of nonsense from the pirate, he fell from the wall and out of instinct I jumped down after to see if I could stop him from drowning but as I hit the water, he resurfaced. When he saw I had jumped in, he looked at me and narrowed his eyes before putting an arm around my waist and pulling me towards a ship that was now entering the port. As he helped me board the ship he growled at an old man, "thought I told ye to stick to th' code." The man sighed and smiled, "we figured they were more guidelines than actual rules" Jack grinned then looked at me, disbelief in his eyes, "what be your name Missy?" I looked down and sighed, "Jaquelyn. Jaquelyn Sparrow" he looked at me for a few more moments before mumbling to himself, "she was telling the truth.."
