Return and Kidnapped Again
(1729, December 10th) Jackie's POV
I woke to my little angel wailing for food and a soiled nappy. So I change her nappy first and and then feed her. While rocking gently in a rocking chair. She suckles happily and I smile. She is diffidently a sea baby. If only Jack could see our daughter. So I decide to draw her and eye together one handed while she feed. I write a small note saying 'To Jack, lots of love from your loving wife Jackie and your newborn daughter Coralia'. I'd have Elizabeth deliver it for me and pray it gets to Jack or his father.
Just then I hear a knock on the door as Coralia finishes. I put her on my shoulder yo burp her as I say "come in". Elizabeth enters waddling. "Good morning Elizabeth, come to see your niece/god daughter?" I ask her smiling.
"Of course, but I also came to tell you breakfast is ready" she tells me with a smile. I smile and wipe Coralia's mouth following Elizabeth to the dining room. "How are you feeling?" she asks me.
"Still tired, but I couldn't be happier" I tell her smiling broadly.
"She resembles Jack" she tells me.
"She has his dark eyes, hair and natural tan. But her curls and everything else looks wise is me" I state. "I wish he could be here now holding me as I hold her" I say longingly.
"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be back together in a month" she assures me.
"I hope so" I tell her smiling. Just then there is a knock at the door. "I'll get it, care to hold her?" I ask her. She nods her head and takes Coralia. I head to the front door and open it to see Pintel with Ragetti.
"Whoa, you lost weight poppet" Pintel says.
"Where's the baby?" Ragetti asks me confused.
"This way boys, close the door behind you" I tell them and lead them to the dining room. Where Elizabeth is trying to keep Coralia from crying. "Awe come here baby, Mama's here" I coo as I take my daughter rocking her gently. She immediately goes quiet.
"He's tiny" Pintel says and I laugh with Elizabeth. "What's so funny?" he asks us confused.
"It is a girl" Elizabeth and I tell them.
"Oh a girl" Ragetti says smiling as Pintel looks faint. "Anyway, we're here to escort you back" he tells me.
"She's just given birth, the midwife said she should rest a few days before traveling" Elizabeth tells him.
"It's true" I add.
"Captain Barbossa won't like that, the Pearl could be spotted by the navy if we stay any longer" Pintel tells us.
"They're right Elizabeth" I tell her sadly as I look at my daughter. "There's a letter in my room, please send it for me. Also tell my god child stories about me and if you see Will before I do. Tell him about his new niece, take care and I'll try to be here for the birth of your baby" I assure her. We hug and I leave with the other too.
They row us back to the ship where the crew all fawn over Coralia. Until I escape to my cabin and put her down for a nap. I start to plan on how to get away from the Pearl so that I can reunite with Jack. I knew I'd head to Shipwreck cove and his dad would help me find him. But first I have to escape my body guard.
(1736)
Things didn't exactly go to plan. After my first failed attempt, Barbossa had me guarded twenty-four seven. Also locked my cabin at night. I tried to escape again when I help Elizabeth bring little Henry into the world. But the Pearl caught me before I even left the bay. Every plan I cam up with was either to dangerous or failed.
So I focused on training my daughter and writing to Jack & Elizabeth. Sending them both drawings of Coralia as each year went by. Before I knew it, seven years went by and today is the 8th of December. Tomorrow is Coralia's seventh birthday and we have a fool proof plan of escape.
While the crew all pass out after drinking in celebration. We'd sneak away. Hopefully we'll be long gone and they won't know where to search for us. As there are three places I'd go. But there is a fourth place, they don't know about. Will sent me a letter and said if ever I needed him, he sent me instructions on how to find him.
That's exactly what I plan on doing. I'd find Will and he can help me find Jack or Jack's dad. Then I'd be fine. But things don't always go as planned.
"Mummy, you promised we'd train today" Coralia says pouting as she tugs on my shirt.
"I did, come lets go train" I tell her smiling. She squeals happily and runs up to the man deck. I follow slowly.
"Hurry up mummy!" she shouts and I chuckle. I hand her a wooden sword and take the other. She gets into her first stance and I attack. She blocks my lazy parry. "Mum, when can I learn to attack?" she asks me as we continue.
"When you have mastered defense" I tell her as I disarm her. "Now focus" I add handing her back the wooden sword. We continue to train for half an hour until she went to get food. Coralia has been trained since the age of three how a ship works, to sword fight and shot a pistol. She is talented, and a natural sailor. But she still has lots to learn.
"She is progressing nicely" Barbossa states.
"I know" I say as I put away the training swords. Suddenly lands on my shoulder with a screech making me jump. I glare at the monkey as she scampers away and high fives Jack the monkey. "Tia is spending to much time with your monkey and my daughter" I grumble.
Tia is a female Capuchin monkey. Barbossa gave her to Coralia for her fifth birthday and she generally takes good care of it. But lets it get away with to much. Just like Barbossa does with monkey Jack.
"She is only playing" he tells me. He looks up at the sails as the wind changes. "You had best go eat dinner, Coral is already a head of you" he tells me. Coral is his nickname for my daughter. Actually it's the crews nickname for her, I always call her Coralia. I nod my head and went below deck to see her eating with Marty and Cotton. With Cotton's parrot on her shoulder.
I join them and we eat quietly. I then bath Coralia and put her into bed. "But I'm not *yawn* tired" Coralia says.
"Really, so you can help me scrub the deck?" I ask her.
"On second thoughts, I'm really tired" she says snuggling into the mattress. I laugh lightly. "Mummy can you tell me the story of how you and Daddy meet?" she asks me.
"You've heard that story a hundred times" I tell her smiling.
"It's my favourite, aside from when daddy temporally kills Uncle Barbossa" she states. So I start to tell her the story. When we hear shouts from outside. "What's going on?" she asks scared.
"I don't know" I tell her. "Cupboard and be quiet" I tell her. She does as she is told and hides with Tia. I grab my sword and head above deck to see the rigging had come to life. It's restraining the crew.
"Jackie, get Coral and run!" Barbossa yells at me. From his spot as he is hanging upside down by his leg. I nod and go to get my daughter when a rope wraps around my midsections. I scream as I am haled into the air. I then hear my daughter's scream.
"Coralia!" I shout in panic as she appears being held by a woman. Jack and Tia attack her and throws them off annoyed. "Let go of my daughter you bitch!" I roar and cut myself free. I swing my sword at her neck and she drops Coralia. Who runs to me and clings to my leg. "No one touches my daughter" I sneer.
"So you're Jack's wife? Thought you'd be prettied" the woman says.
"Who are you?" I demand.
"Angelina Teach" she says and something hits the back of my head. I black out hearing my daughter scream 'Mummy!'. As I feel myself being picked up as she is dragged away from me.
