Ok this is my first POTC fanfic. I'm going to try to keep everyone in character. If u people have read my other stories u can tell that I get ideas from other shows, movies, and so on, and put them together but with my own twists to it. For this fanfic I'm somewhat taking info and stuff like that, from the anime One Piece and the name Winry from FMA. The character from FMA, Winry, won't be used in the fanfic, only her name because I like it. I own nothing. Absolutely nothing. Just wanted to let you people know and I hope u enjoy. Plz review after each chapter! I'm begging you! I'm seriously desperate for reviews on how to improve!
Chapter 1:
As I was pulled up onto the ship I began to think of my life. I didn't really have much of a life. My mother was a prostitute and she died giving birth to me, and my father left me when I was seven to become a pirate. He would say to me that the blood of many pirates before us ran through our veins. All of them men. I was the first girl to be born in over three centuries to our family. I boarded a merchant vessel when I was ten and went out to the Caribbean in search of a new life. One day our ship was under attack. I don't remember much because I think I fainted. I woke up for a minute or two and I was on a raft being pulled up onto another ship. When they pulled me up I took one quick glance out into the fog and saw a dark eerie ship sail off before it disappeared. After that I fainted again.
When I awoke I found out that I was below deck of the ship that saved me. To my left was a boy by the name of Will Turner. I recognized him as a boy who was on the same merchant ship as I. When he asked what my name was, I said my name was Winry Rogers. Since that day Will has taken care of me like a big brother. Will and I sailed on to Port Royal, along with the Governor, Weatherby Swann, and his daughter Elizabeth. Elizabeth was twelve, which was the same age as Will. I could tell that he fancied her. We all got along with each other. When Elizabeth asked how Will and I knew each other, he said that I was his little sister. Since that day, I've been known as Winry Turner.
I served as a maid in the Governor's household and I grew up with an education thanks to Elizabeth who became my best friend. It wasn't a perfect life but it was a simple life. Still even if I had been given a new life with a family and friends, I felt sheltered. I searched for a life and was given one, but it wasn't the life that I wanted. So much order in a person's life can sometimes seem dull. I wanted freedom. I wanted the freedom to do as I please, to make my own choices, and to travel further beyond the horizon of the sea. Though I would probably never admit this to anyone or myself I secretly craved the life of a pirate. The life that is destined for everyone in my family, carrying the name, Rogers. I will give up my wants and lusts for the open sea for these people. They care for me, saved me, and gave me things I believed my real family could never offer. For them I would give them my life.
8 years later…
It's been eight years since the day I first met Will and Elizabeth. Will and I lived together until I turned sixteen. He was an apprentice to a blacksmith and I didn't want to get in his way anymore so I moved into the Governor's house and stayed in the servant's quarters. I've lived the life of a simple maid and I suppose I'm content with it. I don't want to disrespect these people in any kind of way so I won't ask of anything from them. They've already given me so much.
One day the Governor called for me.
"Miss Turner, would you please assist my daughter in preparing for Captain Norrington's ceremony?" asked the Governor.
"Yes milord," I replied.
Even though I was her maid, Elizabeth and I were still the best of friends. Elizabeth arranged for me and Will to join in her private tutoring and she would always help me with my studies.
When I had to help her get dressed I had to help her put on a corset. That was the first time I had ever seen one and boy did it look painful!
"Elizabeth?" called her father. "How's it coming?"
"It's difficult to say!" she replied trying to breathe as best as she could.
"I'm told it's the latest fashion in London," said the Governor.
"Well women in London must have learned not to breathe!" said Elizabeth gasping for air.
"Milord, you have a visitor," said one of the other servants.
After the governor left I began to laugh.
"Oh hush Winry!" said Elizabeth still trying to breathe.
"Sometimes I feel glad that I'm not wealthy," I replied still laughing.
"Really, stop!" she said.
"Sorry, my apologies, Miss Swann," I said while giggling.
"You and your brother I swear! I've told you both before to call me Elizabeth!"
"Sorry, but it comes with the job," I replied.
After finishing getting Elizabeth dressed I took one look at her and admired her loveliness. If there was something that made me envy Elizabeth, it was her beauty. Men have chased after me before but they only wanted a good lay. Plus they were all drunk. I never really think of my appearance anyway. I suppose I'm alright but looks don't really matter to me. I have long dark brown hair, and lightly tanned skin. They only feature I admired about myself were my eyes. They were bluish grey.
"Norrington will surely be breath taken," I said now tidying up the room.
"Uh, yes, I hope he will be," said Elizabeth sounding unsure as she stepped out of the room.
A short while after I went downstairs just as Elizabeth and her father left for Norrington's ceremony. Will was down there staring off as Elizabeth's carriage rode off.
"Did you lose something Will?" I asked while grinning.
"Oh! Winry you startled me!" said Will. "How're you doing here?"
"I'm fine. Miss you though."
"I noticed you haven't been coming to visit as much as you used to."
"I'm getting older so I have more work to do. I better get going to the ceremony. I'm serving there today and I'm also looking after Elizabeth."
"Why didn't you leave sooner?" asked Will.
"There are other people who tend to your "Sweetheart" besides me," I said. "Besides, from here to the ceremony is my break," I said before leaving a dumbstruck Will behind.
"She's not my Sweetheart!" yelled Will.
