"Yes a year. A year almost to the day.." Elizabeth looked up at him, chewing on her tongue. A year ago she'd betrayed him. Not that he'd never done that. Pirates did that. She.. never thought she'd do it. And twice at that. He didn't know about.. Or didn't remember. He wasn't.. Elizabeth rubbed her face with both hands letting out a sigh. An aggravated sigh that growled through her throat and escaped out her mouth.
"But you died! You went to Davy Jones' locker. You thought we weren't real then Jack. But we came to get you. The song was sung. Beckett was clearing every pirate from the ocean. Hanging them all. Using Davy Jones to kill each and every one of us. Tried to kill me! When I was on Sao Feng's ship, they shot at the Empress with the cannons. And killed Feng. Well, almost killed him. He handed over.." It was then she remembered her piece of eight. She reached into the armor and fished it out.
"See? How else would I have that? One of the nine pieces of eight. You know. To bind Calypso. How else would I know. How else would I.." He didn't know about it. This wasn't the Jack that'd..
How was that possible? Compass? Why did he pull out his Compass?
What was he looking fo--SNAP. Elizabeth blinked.
"It's... over now. I mean. There's nothing I can do now. I was going to kill Beckett myself but I'm...somewhere that is not where I was. And WILL. Will joined in with Beckett." That was the hardest. Hardest thing to deal with. He.. Elizabeth was still angry, still hurt. It was too soon. And now Will wasn't here to explain and she had some new..old.. whatever Jack Sparrow.
"Yes you voted for me. And.. you said that before too. You said that then." She waved her arm, angry.
"How could you have been here all this time. You were with me. I was with you! I came and saved you. You told me I couldn't save my father, that he was dead! You told me Will stabbed us in the back. You made me pirate king. How could that have not happened! Look at what I'm wearing. How do I have the piece of eight. How do I know the song. How did." Elizabeth felt her knees give way and she sank down onto the pier immediately.
"I... don't understand." She lowered her head and sank further until her forehead pressed onto the boards.
"This isn't right. This isn't real. I died didn't I? Don't torture me anymore."
