A/N Finally my Pirate story, I never knew how to write it till now.
Enjoy.
Raven stepped on deck and saw the endless blue sky speckled with very few white clouds. "Is this what the sea always looks like?" She asked the Captain "Aye always."
Captain Billows answered.
Raven lend on the rail of the double decked massive ship. "I never knew that the sea was
So pretty, I would have gone to Africa sooner" The captain walked up to the rail with her, "that's a heavy accent you have, where is it from?" Raven smiled, Lots of people
Asked her that "I don't know, you see I was adopted at Cape Town South Africa, and well No one knows where I came from."
"I thought you said you never saw the sea?"
Billows said, much dismayed. Raven nodded"Well I never did, I was only 2 when I left Africa, and we went by plane, not ship." "Oh I see"said Billows.
That night Raven sat on her bed in her quarters and pulled out her journal.
She wanted her 12 brothers and sisters to know of her adventure when she returned
To the US of A. She began her entry Like so,
Dear family,
I am quite well, the sea is faring well and so is the ship.
I was told the funniest story today by one of the sea man.
Here's how it goes,
A Chinese man goes to a farm to buy a horse from another Chinese man,
The 1st one says to the 2nd, is there anything wrong with him? as in the horse:-)
The 2nd says, he no look good. The 1st one laughed and said he looks fine.
And he bought the horse. A day later the 1st man finds out the horse is blind and takes the 2nd one to court over the matter.
The judge asked the 2nd why he did not tell the 1st his horse was blind, the 2nd stood up, I told him. And sat back down the 1st accused him of lying the 2nd said NO I SAID THE HORSE NO LOOK GOOD. With that the case was dismissed. I love that story, oh Dinner I will write you all soon.
Love dearly,
Raven.
At dinner Raven sat next to a small man, he was much shorter then her, and he had
A patch on one eye, Raven felt like she should say something to him so she smiled and looked straight at his face, " Hi I Am Raven, And you are?"
The man looked at her and nodded in return, "Gibbs" He said below his breath
"But don't ye be sayin that around much of thy company, He, He, they won't understand thy
Talk" Raven pushed her self back from the man and stared at him, "You're a Pirate?"
He stared at her with a strange look in his eye "What makes ye say that, might I ask?"
Raven thought a second then said "The accent of you speech, it's sorta like the way I speak, and I was mistaken for a Pirate once, that's how I know."
The man named Gibbs nodded and turned back to his food.
Raven was stunned "You're not going to tell me if I am right?"
The man no longer even looked at her but moved his hand and passed her a napkin from under the table, she grabbed it and left the room to the deck, once she was there she used the moons light to read the note.
