So this is it, it's the end of season one.

Hope you enjoy this.

Thanks you Pirate-on-Fleet-Street for your critical reviews. I'm not offended, I really am not. But I was a bit frustrated because I didn't want anyone to read this and see a Mary-Sue then stop reading because she isn't THAT Mary-Sue. But I didn't want to give away too much as I wanted this to be a surprise. So blame my defensive self =[.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything in POTC although I do own Angelique.

Chapter four. Angel

"I want the truth from you. Right now. What are you?" He said firmly. His gaze was no longer fond and admiring. She stared into his eyes.

"I'm not human. My mother was banned from her world because of me. She was a mermaid. She had a relationship with a human man. I was the reason she was banned. She never cared for me because I got her banned. She became a whore in Tortuga. I'm half mermaid. Hence my looks and mesmerizing singing voice."

His face paled and retreated away from him. "Do you... You know, eat humans? Or have a tail?" He inquired.

She shook her head and laughed. "No, I'm only half mermaid. I eat things that you eat. I have a tail only when half of my body is emerged in water for more than half an hour. The only similarity is my singing, looks and tail. Even my tears have less powers. You'll need three drips of my tears in order to dri-" She cut off, realizing what she was saying.

Jack frowned. "So I guess it's safe to be with you?" He asked.

She smiled at him reassuringly. "Safer than ever. I won't let any mermaids get to you." She said happily. He grinned and he had a very mischievous look upon his face.

"In that case..." He trailed off. She looked at him suspiciously and he pushed her, letting her fall into the water. She went under and sputtered as she shook her hair out of her face, emerging from the water. Jack smiled and jumped in after her.

There was a splash and she was once again splashed with water. "Jack Sparrow!" She screamed.

Jack laughed. "I believe there should be a 'captain' in there somewhere." He replied cheekily. She smacked him on the back of his head.

"Do you want to see me as a mermaid?" She exclaimed sarcastically. He nodded. She rolled her eyes and jumped on the back of his back.

"Hey!" He complained. She laughed and clung onto him. They swam around for a while and he watched as the lower half of her body transform into a tail.

"Wow, love. Isn't it supposed to be gold?" He asked curiously. She looked at it thoughtfully.

"I'm half mermaid. The aqua colour is what marks me as different." She replied. "A freak." She whispered.

He frowned. "You're beautiful, all right? You're unique. Unlike those cruel creatures. You're the one who catches my attention." He grinned. She raised her eyebrows.

"Are you suggesting that you like me?" He rolled his eyes.

"No... well yes... I mean you're pretty and all that but I don't love love, savvy?" He asked.

She laughed playfully, hiding her otherwise obvous disappointment. "Of course. I understand. You being Captain Jack Sparrow and all." He raised his eyebrows.

"You love me, love?" He asked playfully.

She punched him on the arm. "You twist my words, Jack Sparrow!" She exclaimed.

He laughed. "I do."

As she flipped her tail to spash him, she wondered why in hell would she fall in love with a human man. A pirate, too.

She knew they had detected her, and so she ushered Jack back on the ship. "Jack, mermaids are coming after me. Get back on the ship, please." She whispered to him. He stared at her, confused. Her eyes were no longer pools of innocence, they were harsh. "Get back onto the ship this instance, Jack Sparrow." She hissed.

Startled, he nodded quickly and swan back onto the ship just in time as the mermaids emerged from the water. A mermaid with blonde hair and blue eyes stared at her. "Tamara." Angelique said, one corner of her mouth turning up.

Tamara smiled at her coldly. "Angelique. How's your mother?" She asked fakely. Angelique narrowed her eyes. She swam towards Tamara, gripping her arm.

"You need me, Tamara. Trust me, I know it." Her smile was sickly sweet.

She glared at her. "Then you come with us." She hissed.

Angelique held up a finger. "He will not be harmed." She pointed to Jack, who looked genuinely scared.

Tamara smirked. "Ah, fallen in love, haven't you?" Angelique leaned close to Tamara.

"I do not care whether I fall in love with him or not. I only know that you need me and if I don't come with you, you can't force me."

She narrowed her eyes. "All right. I will do it."

Angelique smiled and looked back at Jack. "I'll see you. Sometime." She said as she followed Tamara into the waters. As they reached Whitecap Bay, everyone turned to stare at them.

"Angelique is back." Tamara announced as the mermaids crowded around her.

"Thank you, queen."

Everyone had voted Angelique as the queen, but since Tamara had lineage, she won the throne. Tamara was also stronger, emotionally and physically. Angelique was more beautiful, yes. She had the aura that made everyone like her, yes. But Angeliue wasn't strong enough, she couldn't kill. Most importantly, she wasn't pure bred.

Nevertheless, everyone liked her better. However, they couldn't deny that Tamara was a better leader.

Jack stared out the sea.

What just happened? And most importantly, who was she? Where did she go?

Oh well, a day in the life of Captain Jack Sparrow.
