So here it is! My next story!
Chapter 1: Overboard
Christina Stevenson stared out at the sea from where she stood on the dock. Soon she would be out there, on a ship, the Rainy Cloud to be exact, heading to Port Royal, Jamaica to visit her sister Eleanor, her brother in law Michael, and her nieces Madelyn and Nicole on their plantation just north of the port. Her parents, Ann and Robert, namely Robert, thought that it would be a good idea to get out of Wiltshire for a while and head to the sunny and 'exotic' Caribbean. Christina sighed. She hated the sea, let along ships, barges and boats ever since the incident.
"Christina darling, where are you? We need to board!"
"I'm coming mother!" Christina replied as she hurried to where her parents stood in line. Her mother looked like she would much rather be home in Wiltshire, not bothering to show her fear of the sea. Her father however was a different story.
"Well Christina my dear, are you ready for this adventure?" Christina didn't understand his sudden boldness about the sea, he hated the sea more than she and her mother put together.
"I can't say father, I honestly can't say."
"You'll get over it." By now they were closer to the ship. Needless to say it needed work. A few yards away, she heard some sailors talking about the weather. With nothing else better to do, she listened in.
"Storms a brewin' I can feel it in my bones, I guess we won't be out to sea for more than a week when we'll get 'it with it sooner or l'ter."
"Oh Archie yer full of it! Look at the sky! It's the bluest blue that ye've ever seen!" the man known as Archie stuck up his chin in defiance.
"I'm telln' ye, there is a storm brewin' and it will hit and ye will fall overboard!" and walked away leaving the sailors shocked by his sudden change of mood. And what of this storm, it wasn't very comforting to know that one sailor thought that there would be a storm within the week. No comfort at all. Turning her 'full' attention to the ship, Christina gathered her guts and boarded the ship. Who knew? Maybe this trip wouldn't be that bad after all.
One Week Later
Maybe this trip won't be so bad after all! Oh how she was eating those words! She had told herself that for the past three days. The sailor known as Archie was right, the storm did hit within the week. It wasn't your average storm either. They were just south enough for a tropical storm hit. Luckily they were on the outskirts of the storm, but being in the middle of the ocean, being on the outskirts was bad enough. Pretty soon we'll be in the warm Caribbean air and all will be well Christina told herself as the tried to fall asleep.
The next morning the storm seemed to lighten up. Oddly enough there were only a few storm clouds in the sky. Taking advantage of the sudden stop of the storm, Christina strolled about on deck watching the sailors work and the calm sea that surrounded them. Everything was fine until it happened. The storm came back, this time much more powerful. It was so powerful that it brought huge waves over the ship, dragging anything in its way overboard. Christina couldn't see anything, the cloud blackened the sky and the only light source was the terrifying lightning that occasionally lightened the sky. It was so noisy and windy that Christina was startled when a sailor tapped her on the shoulder.
"Miss. Stevenson, the captain has given a direct-" he was cut off when a huge massive wave struck the deck hitting Christina and the sailor knocking them overboard and into the cold and stormy Atlantic Ocean.
A/N: okay chapter 1 is done! Reviews are always nice!
