A/N: Hello everyone! Well I guess you are wondering why I did another story...I wanted to do this because I felt they needed someone like this in the movie, it would have done them some more justice. Don't worry I will still be writing "Joined for Eternity" and "Destinies Intertwined". I just wanted to get this story out of my imagination and share it with my faithful readers. So thus I present "The Heart of the Ocean"...

Summary: I fell so deep, and I could not stop it. I fell so deeply in love with Admiral James Norrington. But little did I know what fate had planned for us...

Set: after DMC, during AWE. Don't own pirates, just ocs.


Chapter 1: On that fateful day

They say the choices you make resemble you as who you are. But I think otherwise. I think what is in your heart resembles you as who you are. Whether if your heart is pure and good, or dark and full of hatred.

The people I have stumbled upon in life...have been mostly those of a good heart. The only ones with dark hearts I have encountered upon were your average pillage, plundering disgusting pirates.

My mother always told me that I was good at telling who had a pure heart and who had a dark one. Although she finds it hard to believe it, because I really don't encounter with people on land...those people with legs. The very few people with legs I encounter with are always aboard a ship. Not even then, one of them had a wooden leg.

I am a daughter of the sea...yes I am a mermaid. My name is Narissa, I am the oldest of three daughters. My father, Damian died a few months ago helping a royal navy ship escape from a hurricane. He tried everything in his power to stop it, but he failed and died in the process. My mother, Constance was devestated and didn't say a word for months. She is a very tenacious woman, she holds her ground. And will do anything to protect those she loves. But she failed to on that fateful night of the hurricane. I guess that is why she swims out to the farthest depths to cry her heart out. She was in love with my father so much, it would hurt her if any one of us would mention his name. Although she would swim many miles away, I can still hear her cries of torture, despair...she was completely heartbroken.

So I was left to care for my two younger sisters, Coryn and Miley. My mother was around, but didn't do much. She would just sit on one of the rocks from our cove and stare out into the horizon. So my sisters depended on me most of the time.

Until one fateful day I met him. A handsome man he was of the royal navy. Eyes so green that would burn your back, and haunt you with such a gaze. His deep chocolate brown hair, that was smooth to the touch...how wonderful it would feel on my skin. His tall well built figure, made you dream and lust for him at the same time. The presence he commanded...was simply irresistable. But what caught my attention was the pain and despair in his eyes. By then I could not rely on my instincts...I was torn wether he was good or evil. I could sense the depths of his heart. I could sense a good man, but yet he wanted revenge.

And so I was drawn to him. Not only at how handsome he was, but everything about him. I wanted to know who he was, why he had so much pain in those beautiful dark emeralds.

It was that fateful day that I fell in so deep...so deeply in love with Admiral James Norrington. And it was that day my world turned completely upside down...
