Hope Jones The Pirate Princess

How did you get it?

The morning after the wedding Hope awoke in her bedroom still in her dress. She managed to pry herself from the sheets and throw herself into the shower before throwing on her pink flannel pyjamas.
She wandered downstairs in hope she would find cake or some left over sweets that she could eat for her breakfast.
"Morning sleepyhead!" Emma laughed as she looked at the clock
"Bloody hell!" Hope gasped as realised it was three in the afternoon
"Come on I'll make you some breakfast!"
Hope did find what she had set out to, only when she reached for a piece of the cake her father slapped her hand away and insisted she eat something 'proper'.
Emma sat her down at the table as she and Killian began to prepare them breakfast. To Hopes surprise her dad allowed her to have waffles and ice cream but if wasn't long before his reasoning for doing so was revealed
"Lass I think it's time you told us how you got the scar!" Killian smiled slightly concerned.
6 months earlier
Hope and the crew had docked in a nearby port to stock up on the supplies for the last part of their journey when she heard a familiar laugh ring through the air.
She turned her head towards the dock where she saw BlackBeard. Who then had the nerve to invite himself aboard her ship.
Hope could tell Arabella had kicked him out as his beard was matted, his clothes were filthy and he smelt worse than Robin had when he had fallen into the sewer by Reginas castle.
"Get him off my ship now!" Hope barked but as hard as they crew tried he wouldn't move.
Reluctantly she grabbed him access to the deck where he began to beg Hope for the ship.
She couldn't help but laugh. What did she think she was going to do, hand it over? Hope decided she would humour him and she told him if he beat her in a duel then she would happily hand over the ship.
She drew her sword and began to fight with BlackBeard and it looked as though she was going to win. Until he slit straight across Hopes chest. The crew and everyone else that had been watching expected Hope to give in and die but she was Killian Jones' daughter cheating death was in her DNA.
She picked herself back up off of the deck as the crew watched on and ripped out BlackBeards heart. As he began to plead for her mercy Hope began to squeeze. She didn't enjoy watching him in pain but he had enjoyed watching her in pain.
BlackBeard made the fatal mistake of talking about Hopes family and how when she returned his heart he would overthrow them and rule the kingdom with an iron fist.
He had angered Hope so much that she had crushed his heart. As to keep up the appearance she had made as a ruthless pirate captain she blew the remains of the heart over his body and had the crew throw him into the sea.
That night Hope was guilt ridden. She had killed someone. She had intended to make him sweat a bit but instead she had murdered him.
Present day
Emma and Killian looked at their daughter in complete shock. They had no idea that she could be so callous. But then it hit them that she wasn't.
They had raised Hope exactly as they wished they had been raised. With endless amounts of love, trust and happiness.
Hope wasn't evil nor was she dark. She had done what was necessary to protect her families kingdom and their people. If BlackBeard had gotten off the ship or had his heart back they knew Hope never would have come home.  
They both had hold of Hopes hands and she knew they were annoyed or upset. They trusted that what she had done had been done in the protection of the kingdom.
Hope had burst into tears and Emma couldn't sit across from her any longer. She moved herself next to Hope and pulled her into her lap.
She may be almost 18 but to her parents she never got any older than 8 years old. Emma allowed Hope to sob into her chest before she collected herself and began to help her parents pack their cases.
Hope had been laid on her stomach on her parents bed 'helping' them pack when she heard someone start to talk to her. Normally, Hope would be slightly afraid when she heard a new voice but for some reason she wasn't afraid of this one.
A man appeared in front of her no taller than her father, the same jet black hair as her with the same waves she had and a dull brown set of eyes. He wore a off white shirt, brown trousers and boots but for some reason Hope was drawn to him.
"Who are you?" Hope asked curiously
"So it is true!" The man smiled but Hope looked at him completely bewildered "my Killian let go of his revenge and made himself a family!"
"Grandpapa?" She smiled.
From across the room Killian's head whipped around to see Hope deep in conversation with someone who he now understood to be his father.
"My dear girl you are so beautiful! You look just like your father! However, you have a demeanour that you must have from your mother!" He laughed
"Yeah I get told that a lot!" She smiled
"Hope? Who are you talking to kid?" Emma smiled from across the room
"Your father-in-law" Emma jaw almost dropped to the floor. She had never met Killian's father before she only knew what he wanted her to know; that he had abandoned him and that Killian had murdered him.
"Dad? You wanna say hey?" Hope asked. Killian nodded, closed his eyes and took Hopes hand.
As he opened his eyes he saw his father sat opposite him
"Father!" Killian gasped trying his hardest to hold back tears
"Killian!" He cried
"Father! I'm so-"
"You have nothing to be sorry for! I wronged you and your brother all those years ago! You did what you had to do!"
"Aye! But I never got my revenge we buried the hatchet and I found something better!" He smiled as he looked over at Emma
"And that would be?" Brennan smiled. Hope waved her hand to her mother and Emma quickly made her way over and took it
"Dad, this is Emma. My wife!" Killian smiled whilst Emma blushed
"It's lovely to meet you Emma!"
"And you!"
"So I have a daughter in law and a granddaughter!" Brennan smiled
"Aye!"
"I think I should go," Brennan smiled as he looked at Hope who was beginning to fall asleep "it was good to see you my boy!"
Before Killian could respond Hope had fallen asleep. When she used her power for to long or she had more than one person with her it often ended up with her being asleep.
Emma and Killian left Hope on their bed to sleep whilst they packed up the rest of their stuff. By time it was time for them to leave Hope was still asleep. They decided it was best to leave her to sleep and they left her a note.
She awoke the next day to find herself in her parents bed with them nowhere to be seen. However, she did see the note they had left
Ducky, you looked far to peaceful for us to wake and also we had no idea that doing what you did made you so tired. By time you read this we will be gone but we will be back in three days time. Go enjoy you date with Dalton!
