Prologue: Death of a father
This is a new story of mine and became inspired by the story of Captain Salazar in the new Pirates of Caribbean. I wanted to create a world of my own in the pirates of the Caribbean world. I created Amaya Esmeralda Anita Salazar as the youngest daughter of Armando Salazar. The child that grows up without a father and becomes abandoned by a crazed mother in a catholic covant. This story is the first in a series of stories and tells her rise to a power as the one of the most powerful captain's in the Spanish navy. This is the origin story of the Priate Hunter and The Fiery Black Cat of the Caribbean. I hope you enjoy this story as much as I've enjoyed creating this character.
Ps: I don't own the Pirates of the Caribbean characters or franchise, I only own Amaya for now.
Sitting on the couch silently weeping Alexandria agonized over what she was about to do and if anyone ever found out how badly it would reflect on her moral character as well as her respect in the community. But she so full of grief and she couldn't stand the sight of her youngest daughter that acted so much like her father in personality. As well as the fact that at 46 years old she couldn't care for a young child on her own.
So she made the heartbreaking decision to give her up and to tell the family that she had died to ease her guilty conscious and cover up her tracks. She knew this would cause so much grief but it needed to be done and so it shall be. Drying her eyes as a knock echoed across the door and she a sunny smile across her face as she walked over with a spring in step. She begun to imagine how much happiness would be in her life once this was done.
Letting in two nun as directed them to a pair of seats in the living room and asked them " Would you two care for tea, before you begin your journey?!"
The older nun shook her head instead saying " We like to head back before daybreak, where is the girl?"
"Of course , follow me!" leading them up the stairs and down a hallway. Opening the door to find a young girl with wavy jet black hair. Her face resembled her mother's catlike appearance and her eyes were truly unique. Almost black in color with flecks of grey and green inside them. Her skin was olive toned like most people of Spanish heritage compared to her mother's fairer skin.
" Madre!" the young girl got off from the ground to hug her mother before she was pushed away gently by her. Looking up in confusion to see her mother wearing a shaky smile that didn't reflect the love that she was normally shown. Tears fell down her cheeks as she watched her mother leave the room as she handed the younger nun an envelope.
Closing the doors as she ignored her crying and confused daughter. The younger nun shook her in disgust as the older one begun to pick various clothing, stuffed animals, books, games, and heirlooms for the young girl to bring with her.
Closing the door as the went down hallway and down the stairs. " What is the young girl's name?" asked the younger nun.
The woman turned to face her as she answered " Amaya Esmeralda Anita Salazar" before turning back to stare out the window once again. The younger nun held a disgusted sneer for a spilt second as she waited for the older nun to exit the door.
" Madre!" screamed the girl as tears went down her cheeks as the younger nun carried her out of the door. Sobbing loudly as they entered the carriage that the woman had paid for them to get the young girl. The younger nun them told the older nun " What a disgusting woman, how dare she treat her young daughter that way! And before you say anything to dismiss my words, did you not see her smiling as we left?!"
The older nun sighed " It not our place to judge, for now we must comfort a hurt and confused little girl that's had everything ripped away from her."
The younger nun looked at the young girl still sobbing with a gaze full of sadness as she said " Hopefully god will heal her wounds that have been struck on her soul at such a young age. Those wounds being a mother that wants nothing to do with her as well as having banished her from everything she has ever known and her legendary father lost at sea probably murdered by pirates."
The older nun sighed " I know but this is the work we do as nun's in convent. We take in unwanted and neglected girls it is an unfortunate thing. However I agree with your earlier statement their is a special place in hell for a woman that smiles as her daughter is in pain."
The young girl who was only a year old had finally silenced her sobbing as she listened. She laid their on the bench in the carriage wishing for things to be the way they were before her father whom she barely knew left. Biting as her tongue as she wished to tear and rip through everything inside this carriage in her confusion that this event had brought to her mind.
However one thing was certain even at the young of age one she silently made a vow never foreseeing what that vow actually meant. Thinking to herself " I will never be weak again"
