Chapter 1: Port Royal

Today was going to be a very boring day because today was James ceremony and I had to go along with aunt Caroline. The dress I have to wear is so tight but I can breath fine it's just a little hard to walk. My hair was put high over my head to make me look regal and important even though I was just a regular young girl born in a regular town. I don't even get why I was invited to this stupid ceremony. Aunt Caroline says that since i'm not her real daughter I need to be adopted and raised by a much better family then hers a more higher family. When I was ready to go I walked down the front steps and noticed Will walking past the house.

I walked towards him and gave him a hug "Will, I'm so happy to see you today were are you going with that box."

Will returned my hug before looking down at me "I'm going to the Governor's mansion to give him Mr. Norrington's new sword I made for the ceremony."

I stepped back to look at him "Are you going to be at the ceremony today?"

He smiled before shaking his head "No, I have other work to attend to after I deliver the sword and the walk home is very long."

I hugged him again before stepping back and saying "Well I hope to see you again today if i have time to spare."

He bowed to me before saying "The same to you Bella."

I watched and smiled as he walked towards the Gov's mansion before I began to walk towards the fort. I waked slowly and before I could reach the fort I noticed something there was a man talking to the boat guard. I walked toward them and caught part of there conversation "This dock is off limits to civilions." I walked even closer to them and tryed to get a better look at the man and noticed he had dredlocks just like mother said my father had. When I finally became bored with the picture infront of me I headed towards the fort. I new I was the last to arrive and I was going to be in trouble. When I stepped into the fort I was immediatly welcome by the sound of my name "Isabella marie Londen, were have you been?" I turned to see it was my aunt.

I waited for her to closer before I whispered "Auntie I saw a pirate down by the docks and I stopped to talk to Will."

I watched her eyes grow wide before she whispered back to me "You stay away from pirates darlin and the docks, lord knows what happens down there. Now, is waiting for you so hurry up and see him he is a very busy man."

I nodded to her and slowly began to walk towards who was talking to Swann the woman I think he wanted to marry. I walked closer towards them before stopping and waiting for a time to enter the conversation. I looked around before hearing my name again this time it was James. I walked up to him and smiled "Auntie said you wished to see me."

I watched as he smiled "Yes I do," he grabbed Elizabeth's hand and mine and pulled towards the edge of the fort "I heard that your aunt was looking for a better home for you?"

I smlied sadly before answering "Yes, auntie says I need a new home because she can not fend for me anymore she thinks I deserve a family who can raise me to be of higher standers and more quality."

"Yes, I did hear that and I think I have found a wonderful home for you." I watched as leaned down to my hight and whispered "I believe you would wonderful to have around my home."

I was stunned he just said he wanted to be my dad. I felt a smile build on my lips before I ran to hug him "Thank you so much. Is Elizabeth going to be my mom?"

I looked towards Elizabeth and noticed something she was breathing to hard and before anything she was falling over the wall of the fort "James, Elizabeth." I screamed and pointed at the place Elizabeth had just been.
