Disclaimer: I don't own Pirates of the Caribbean, due to my fear of Disney…they will take over the world…I could own... never mind.
Anywho, I have been having problems writing, so constructive comments are most welcome.
Soon the three were sitting in the well furnished office of the Governor. Governor Swann sat at his desk looking at Rose, seeing the resemblance she had to his old friend, Admiral Velvet. There was a silence, while Rose prepared to tell her blood covered tale. The silence was deafening but no one wanted to push the girl to speak. Governor Swann was thinking, trying to figure out why a girl that had gone missing now showed up out of the blue. He remembered hearing about her about a year ago from Dr. Livesey, about some adventure where she showed great bravery, but that bravery must have been exaggerated due to the fact that the girl sitting before him was shaking and on the verge of tears.
Rose knew she wasn't ready to tell anyone about the traumatic events that had happened just four days ago, but she wanted to just tell them and get it over with the only problems with telling her tale was that she would have to speak with half truths, in order to escape the hang mans noose. If she could kill like a pirate then she could lie like one.
"Miss, Velvet, please tell me what has happened to you?" Asked Governor Swann.
Her side was aching and her eyes filled with tears ever threatening to pour from her sapphire eyes, Rose took in a deep breath, feeling a sharp pain as she did so, but still the girl spoke, "Well as you know, my father did perish in battle, well most people know naught the fate of my dear mother, "Rose paused for a moment while she fought back tears, though she was acting to save her own neck, some of the emotion was true, when her voice cracked. "She died of pure heart break. You know how close she was to father and without him, mother did not last but three months. So thus I became and orphan, and had one alternative, and that was to find my only other relative, my uncle William Velvet.
Tis true that he was a pirate, and well I had to fear in meeting him again. For we had met many times in my childhood, he would stumble into my home, drunk and hurt, and would be asking my father for money. But my uncle Billy was not that bad of a person, you can ask me old friend Dr .Livesey. When I found him I was at the Admiral Benbow INN, where I met a young lad named Jim Hawkins. Well Uncle had always loved his rum, and he had been running almost all of his life after serving on a pirate ship under Captain James Flint. I fear that all that drinking and fear finally brought him to his death and so Jim and I, we had become good friends, especially after the untimely death of his father. The pirates who had basically scared Uncle Billy to death were going to come to the Inn at any moment. So Jim and his mother went through the trunk that uncle Billy had always had near him. Jim found a map to a island that was the treasure trove of Flint. So after I took my uncles sea salt stained cloak and one of his shirts we left and we hid under a bridge where Jims mother fainted. Jim left with the Squire later and I with Jims mother went to stay with Dr. Livesey. He bought me a few dresses and tried to make me look like a woman of high society again. He had a soft spot for me, knowing my father at one point in his life. Thus we left on a adventure to Treasure Island .
After that I stayed in England mourning for my lost family, and every once in a while staying in Captain Smoletts home with his wife. About three months ago I decided that I wanted to travel the Caribbean, I had heard my fathers great tales and how highly he spoke of Port Royal. I boarded a ship called the Velvet Rose, which at the time seemed like destiny, as most of you know that's my name backwards. Soon I was sailing in the Caribbean, three days before I could reach Port Royal. But my happy voyage was disturbed …" she couldn't hold back the tears anymore and dear Rose was heading straight for a panic attack, she gasped and spoke faster, seeing the events in her mind, "The captain and I were playing chess, we had become quite close, I reminded him of his daughter, we were interrupted buy the sound of yelling and soon the ship was under attack. A ship with black sails…." she was sobbing," he died in my arms…blood all over the deck. "Her eyes were wide with fear.
Elizabeth could feel her friend heading into a panic attack, like the kind Rose was prone to as a child. Lizzie jumped up to comfort Rose, but alas it was to late for the girl had fainted in her chair. James on the other hand looked at Rose then back at Governor Swann, wondering what just happened.
Governor Swann called for the butler to send for a doctor, James carried Rose up to one of the spare rooms.
