Chapter 1

Batavia 1680

Come on girls or we are going to be late and the ship will sail without us on it. I hear Alice scream up to me and Rosalie. I turn to Rose and ask if she is ready yes came her quick reply and excited I can't wait to meet all the new people. She and Alice and our chamber maids are the only ones that are excited. I`m not I know my father has arranged a marriage for me in Cape of Good Hope our destination and new home. My father the Count of Batavia has relocated us to the Cape of Good Hope that's where I my sister and our cousin Rosalie are headed if we can make it to the ship in time.

My father went ahead 3 years ago to set up a new home for us a new land and a new beginning that's what he said. Rose is going with because we are the only family she has left, her mother like ours died during child birth, and her father had pass on six months ago of a weak heart leaving Rose a very rich and very young noble women. My father has guardianship over her and is in control of her wealth.

Black Knight Indian Ocean 1680

Captain we are all ready to sail again where we headed now, what about home boys. Jazz Em in my cabin now I yell at my seconds in command and best friends since we were little. Looking for us captain Em ask yes I think it's time to head home for a bit and see what's new there, oh and change the name we don't want the people of the cape to know we are when we are at sea. Yes captain what will the commands be when we encounter the low lifes of the sea. Jazz asks as they walk out of the cabin then we become the black knight but for now we are the Areiella. They went to do as ask and I take a seat at my table to look over the shortest way back home, Batavia to the cape will be shorter. I just hope it goes smooth sailing. We set sail for the Cape with high spirits and renewed energy. It's been six weeks and no trouble but it's just the calm before the storm.
