Freedom

'' Dead men tell no tales.'' Narcissa said, all the crew looking outside, the storm gone just mist left behind   '' Puts a chill in the bones, how many sailors have been claimed by this passage.'' she mused lifting her skirt carefully, revealing pale, smooth legs and a pouting child, who after taking a hold of his mother hand, he let go and runned towards his father.

Narcissa walked on the other side of the ship, Will after her looking at Jack from time to time.

'' How is it that Jack come by that compass?'' he asked looking at the woman, a pirate wife, checking the ropes. She just smiled at the young boy, who was most probably close to her age and said

'' There wasn't a lot to know about Jack before he arrived in Tortuga with Lucius years ago with the mind to steal a young, ready for marriage woman and to search for the love of his life.'' she said mysteriously enjoying the look Will throw back at Jack

'' That man?'' he said making Narcissa laugh  '' Who even-?'' she takes a closer step to him, looking like she was going to tell the biggest secret just to whisper with unforgiven eyes

'' The Black Pearl. '' she said and for a moment the waves were sounding too strong, clear and loud all at once  

'' What?'' he said a sudden ringing in his ears, Narcissa making a surprised sound

'' He is the Captain of The Black Pearl, like my husband is for his ship.'' she said smiling softly looking at the small child, now being hold up by Lucius arm, all the while talking with Jack who was moving his compass like crazy

'' He failed to mention that.'' Will muttered making the woman snort

'' Not surprised. I was never sure how Jack was tricked for this to happen. I just know that my husband rescued him with his ship before he could go crazy with heat.'' she pursed her lips before looking at Will  '' They left him to die or more like kill himself by the Code. And from than on he has a single goal in my mind for the last 10 years.'' she took a seat on a wooden box and checked her boots   '' Find and commander the Black Pearl.''

'' Ah so that's why, he is-''  Will makes a show of copying Jack expression making Narcissa laugh loudly, unknowly to them two silver head glaring in their direction

'' What about your husband? Why is he following Jack, helping him?'' he asked making the woman smooth her features before answering

'' That's a silly question.'' she said getting up from her place  '' Wouldn't you go at the end of the world for a dear friend?'' she tries to leave but Will words stop her

'' He has a child though. And a wife.'' he said like that explained anything

'' He does.'' Narcissa said, her braided her falling over her shoulder before leaving without saying a word. After all it looked like Gibbs wanted to have a talk with the poor lad.

----

Will looked after the woman, swordswoman and wasn't that amazing? A woman wielding a sword better than a man? Walking towards her family and Jack, just for Lucius to take a hold of her waist and lean on her heavily. She laughed and petted his long hair while smirking at an agitated Jack.

'' I wouldn't do that if I were you lad.'' a voice behind him said, Gibbs, and took a seat on the same wooden box Narcissa was   '' It's no matter how much Jack favorites you if the wizard hates you for staring at his wife.''

'' I- No. Elizabeth is the only woman I could look at.'' he said making the pirate snort before shacking his head

'' Whatever ye say lad. Now listen carefully Will. '' the man stops for a moment looking at young lad   '' When a pirate is marooned, he is given a pistol with a single shot. One shot.'' Will stays closer looking curious, almost transfixed by the new information. He cursed himself though, it wasn't normal to be so curious about piracy.    '' Well, that won't do much good hunting or to be rescued. But after three weeks of starving belly and  thirst.-''

What?  Will though glancing at the woman who told him something completely different

''-that pistol starts to look friendly.-''

Even though there were too many things that didn't fit in with what he learned, that didn't stop Will from listening to everything Gibbs had to say. And even though for a moment he wondered what was true or what wasn't he never asked which was which and just listened carefully, making sure to remember both stories.

'' Stop shacking it mate.'' Lucius said, still having Draco on his arm   '' It's not broken just confused.'' he added making Jack growl and Narcissa laugh at them. Jack  stopped for a moment and looked up, not sneaking a glance at the compass pointer that showed towards a certain young lad before shoving the object towards his mate.

'' You try it.'' he said leaning on the wheel not even looking at his friend rolling his eyes at his attics

'' It shows mama!'' Draco laughed trying to grab the compass for himself just to have it taken back by an annoyed Jack. Narcissa too a hold of Lucius arm, leaning on his side and using her arm to arrange Draco fluffy hair more neatly

'' Ugh.''  Jack groaned at the two, too sweet for their line of work family and tried to shake the compass some more, hopefully not breaking it.

----

'' How are you feeling?'' Narcissa asked rubbing Lucius shoulder making him huff a laugh

'' I'm fine my love.'' he said circling her waist and squeezing it tightly   '' It wasn't the first storm I stopped, neither was it the worst one we come across.'' he said checking her dress, humming when seeing not a single spot of wetness on it

'' Yours and Tia's work hold just fine.'' she assured him before adding teasingly  '' Even the new spell worked, Draco could approve of this.'' she said ruffling her son's head who was staring ahead at the misty horizon

'' Did he now? '' Lucius said smirking thinking at their overexcited son hiding under his mother skirt at his own accord  '' How long do you think you could hide him there?'' he said kissing her temple before, for a brief moment locking eyes with acid green

'' I can bet on all the diamonds and rubies on Malchance that I can still pull it off when he is 25.''  she said smirking at her husband coming closer to his ear and saying quietly making sure their child couldn't hear. He had a strange attachment to Will. It was much easier telling him it was the lad time to meet Calypso than telling him of what will happen.

One couldn't possible be innocent when living on the sea with a family of pirates to boot, but there were things that a child mind couldn't comprehend like a teen or young adult one could do. Maybe Lucius sleep in a wooden, wet box when he was a child and Narcissa on nothing but a pill of hay, their son though, sleep on the soft bed his parents sleep for five whole years till he had a boost of independence and with the help of magic and a surprisingly willingly Malchance a small room was made beside their.

It couldn't fit more than a small bed made of soft furs, wrapped by the softest material they could steal  and a box filled with Draco own treasures.

So no. Draco had no need of knowing the actual fate of Will Turner.

'' Go now.''  Lucius said sweetly to his family   '' Malchance will protect you two till I'm back.'' he said watching the two disappear in his ship veil before turning back to his best mate

The three of them were stacked into a tiny boat with no light in sight beside Lucius eyes.

'' A little to the right.'' he murmured to Jack who was stuck with his back on Lucius, using the rows   '' And stop going that fast.''

'' Warn me earlier than.''  Jack said back at him catching Will incredulous look

'' Do you want to seat in the front?''  Lucius asked almost mocking, snorting when Jack sputtered behind him

'' What code it's Gibbs suppose to keep if the worst should happen?''  Will asked just to not fall victim to the two bickering

'' Pirate's Code. Any man who falls  behind, is left behind.''  Jack stated almost solemnly, stirring the small boat after Lucius guidance

'' No heroes among thieves, eh?'' Will asked with a slight sneer, twitching in surprise when the two snorted amused

'' Heroes.''  Lucius said sneering  '' Are not real lad.''

'' Just some angry Gods from time to time.'' Jack said amused, nudging Lucius back with his own making him snort again   '' You know for having such a bleak outlook on pirates, you are well on your way of becoming one.''   he said smirking at Will face. Even with the almost none light he could see the dubious look he was given by the boy.   '' Sprung a man from jail, commandeered a ship of the fleet, sailing with a buccaneer crew out of Tortuga and a wizard family at that.'' 

There was a pause when Lucius hissed looking down at the water, making the two look as well at the cursed gold who was too bright under the water.

'' And you are completely obsessed with treasure.''  Jack finished giving the boy a small smirk when Will shivered at the close proximity. In front of her Lucius couldn't help but roll his eyes.
