Author's Note~ hey guys! School sucks and I have been really busy with it,
but don't think it has stopped me from writing, NO WAY! Enjoy.
The Meeting
Tears dripped down her bruised face. Thoughts of hate flashed in her mind about
her father. She smelt something horrible then realized it was Alex, her father, bursting in
the room, spraying spit all over as he screamed, "Get to the market place and get my
dinner!" Aurora cringed in fear at his words. Then grabbing her cloak, she dashed out of
the door carrying a basket. The marketplace was near the dock so she would be able to
see her favorite thing, the ships. Ever since she was little she was fascinated by ships and
loved the ocean, and water in general. And her fear was forgotten as she approached a
particular ship she had never seen before. It was big and it had black sails, to her it was
by far the best ship she had ever seen. People were bumping her, so she started walking
again.
The streets were alive with people's activity. Men were bringing in fresh fish and
oysters, while women scurried to get fruits and vegetables. Her change jiggled in her
pocket. She noticed men trying to steal barrels from the market place, but they were quite
unusual looking. Aurora put some loaves of bread in her basket and as soon as she
turned around, she bumped into what she instantly knew was a pirate. Then it hit her like
a brick wall, they were pirates that she saw and that she saw a couple of minutes ago
must have been their ship. Her father's words came flashing to her, 'You are nothing,
Aurora, you are just like your worthless Mother! Pirate's blood runs in your veins and it's
a good thing your Mother died!' As she remembered this she burst into tears. The pirate
before her gave a confused look and whispered, "What wrong love?" He saw her eyes get
huge as she gulped, "S-s-sir-" She stuttered as she tried to stop the flow of tears, "Y-y-y- you're a pirate!" Is all she managed to get out. He grinned at her, "So why does this make
ye cry? And ye best not be shouting it all over love." He winked at her. She noticed his
deep brown eyes and it was almost soothing. The pirate continued, " What is yer name
lass?" She paused, wondering what she should do or even say. "Aurora," She said,
making up her mind. "And who are you?" She asked, curiosity flooding her. A feeling of
yearning came over her. He replied, "Jack, so I know yer name and ye know mine so we
shall meet again. Savvy?" He flashed another grin, showing a glint of gold in his teeth.
Aurora decided to risk everything. You never know, she thought, maybe I could finally
be free. "Ok," She said.
