Chapter One~

Christina had runaway from home. She was eighteen years old and was to marry an old, cruel man. Christina decided she would do everything to prevent this marrige.

So she ran away. She headed for the dock where she saw a single ship, a ship with black sails. Christina ran aboard the ship and hid in a life boat covered in canvas.

Christina fell asleep there.

The next morning, Christina woke to a bright sunny day. There was a man with brown hair staring down at her. " Jack, she's alive," the man called to his commrade.

" What is your name,lass?"Jack asked.

"Christina Cody" she replied.

" Well Christina, you do know you've stowed away on a pirate ship and one at sea for that matter?" Jack said.

" No, I didn't," Christina stammered.

" Well, welcome to the Black Pearl, love."
