The Half-Blood Pirates

Chapter 1

"Yes, I do heartily repent. I repent I had not done more mischief; and that we did not cut the throats of them that took us, and I am extremely sorry that you aren't hanged as well as we." -Anonymous Pirate asking to repent before being hung


...


It was just a normal day in England; my parent being were cheery as always, the help skittering around everywhere like cockroaches, and finally me sitting on the end of my bed with my dress hiked up past my ankles, reading an exciting book about pirates.

Ahhh yes. Pirates. The reason for my existence, for one day I intend to join their crew. Yes, as a lady it will be quite hard, but once they see me with my sword, which my parents know nothing about, they will surely consider me a member of the crew.

Now all I have to do is get my parents on the same boat as me wich is impossible because my parents are quite...proper. Infact, my father is the one who carries out the orders to execute 'these horrible cries against nature,' as he usually calls them. I couldn't disagree more with him! Infact I actually met a pirate one time! Ofcourse he was executed the next day, but he was quite funny.


FLASH BACK

I was only six years old and was attending one of my father's court hearings for the execution of a caught pirate who was being trialed for theavery and murder. I only got to speak to him for about 5 minutes, but in those 5 minutes, I realized what I wanted to be when I grew up.

"The wind blowing in you hair, the salty spray burning your eyes, and all the scars and bruises you get,why, there is nothing better!" The pirate gave a slight chuckle displaying his surprisingly white teeth.

" I thought pirates had rotten teeth? Why don't you?" Being only six year old, I didn't consider it rude to ask, and apparently neither did the pirate.

"People are quite stupid. They label us pirates as horrible creatures when really all were striving to do is make the world go round." He says with a hardy chuckle.

" My father is one of those people," I say in distaste and lower my head in shame. The pirate jerks my head up quite quicly.

"Chin up. You seem to be different from the judge that is about to decide my fate, so as my last wish i want you to have me ole sword. Dare tell anyone about this, and it will be confiscated from back to your house as quickly as you can and hide it under your matress. Don't come back here until tomorrow unless you want to see me hanging by my neck. Make myself clear?" I thought about this for second.

"Y-you mean, they are really going to kill you..today?" I say my eyes watering up a bit. I've only known this man for about 3 minutes, yet I feel as if we've been best friends forever.

"Aye, they know if they do it tomorrow I will be long gone. I have escaped prison so many times, but atlass...not this time." he says with a pang of something that I just couldn't lay her finger on. Remorse? Regret? Pride? Happiness? Scaredness? To this day I still wasn't sure.

I gave him a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"You are a brave man." he chuckled again.

" I haven't been a man since the day I became a pirate," he stated simply. "What is your name child?" he said while moving the chain bonds around his wrist.

"Annabeth" he smiled at me.

"You remind me of my son, he's around your age. Well, I assume he is if he isn't dead." he says this time with pain written all over his face. I squeeze the pirates hand one time before I grab the sword and run out of the cellar;I go back to my house as the pirate had told me to do.

Imediatly when I got home, I hid the sword under my bed mattress.


END OF FLASH BACK

Instead of giving the man a quick beheading, they hung him which I heard my dad say when I was six that he wouldn't die until 3 hours of hanging there by his neck.

I must admit, I did shed a few tears when I found out about this. Wouldn't any human being lose sleep over knowing that someone you considered a friend had to go through agonizing pain, though,

A loud banging on my door shakes me out of my day dream.

"Come in?" i say with a bit of annoyance. Right when I complete my sentence, in prances my mother Athena.

"Annabeth, it is high time you get ready for the king's ball- My Word!" she screeches in horror, "Stand up and straighten that dress out! A lady is never suppose to show that much leg!" I can't help but roll my eyes a bit. My ankles. Not my calves or thighs but ankles.

"Relax, Mother," I stand up and calmly readjust my dress," It is all better now." I say with a tone that is calm and even.

She gives me a quick look over then tells me to meet her in the prepping room for me to start getting ready.

I slowly put my book away then trudge slowly down to the room where I will be for three hours getting my hair pulled at and squeezing into a dress two sizes too small.

What Joy.
