A Journey on the Caribbean
Chapter One
Natalie Natalie Sparrow was a strong woman. She had a daughter, a niece, and a broken heart to take care of. Her niece and daughter were the easy part. She had a past that few people know about. It started back in Port Royal, when her sister was still alive. They were children, soon to be orphans.
Her father was about to leave and go work in his blacksmith shop, as he did every morning. The only thing was, he never came back. Their mother had died at birth with her younger brother. She had taken him with her. Therefore, for the past few years, she and her sister lived alone with their father.
Her sister, Mara, went out for a walk, and she heard about a hanging that would be held tomorrow. So she ran back home to tell her sister. Natalie, only being 6 years old, was truly exited.
That night, their father never came home. Mara got worried, and went to check the city alleyways. She past the jail and heard someone, a man, call her voice. She looked up to the window, and a bruised and bloody man start to cry." Tell Natalie that I love her, and I will miss her dearly, but I am going for a short trip and be home soon." he said. "Father" Mara asked. "Oh my god! What have they done to you?" "They did their job." was his reply "Beating an innocent man is there job?!?" she asked, completely infuriated. "I had made a deal with a friend... a pirate." He fell to the ground. That was when she knew, that her father was going to be the entertainment for tomorrow. That was when she realized how cruel the world is. And that is when She realized that she must protect this cruel world from her sister. Natalie was the only family she would have left. Her little sister was her life.
She walked back home to find her sister asleep and curled up with her new doll she had gotten for her birthday from her sister. It had long, black hair, and the body was filled with feathers and cotton. She had a dress, which was completely black, with a white rose in the right corner. The next day, they watched their father be killed, charges for associating with a criminal. That 'criminal' was there godfather. Forward a year later, Mara and Natalie live in the local orphanage. To earn some extra cash, Mara became a prostitute. She was only 16. That was the only way they could live without begging.
Their matron might as well have been a warden. She never gave them enough food to fill them, or even to chew. Their beds were always cold, and she beat the children fiercely. Even newborns. So Mara felt it was up to her to get her and her sister out of there. Soon, she was known as the town horror. It never mattered to her. What did she have to prove to these narrow-minded villagers? Did they ever have to take care of a child, by themselves at sixteen? Did they ever have to take care of a child period? I think not. At least not by themselves. They always had a husband that put food on the table, or a husband to by groceries, or at least they had rank. However, there was one thing she had that they did not. And that was class. Many men of high rank were clients of hers. And she never told a soul. As soon as she made enough money, she and Natalie got out of the orphanage and got a room in the local inn.
The innkeeper was a nice, gentle man. He had a son that was a handsome young fellow. Over time, Mara and him became very good friends. A few weeks later, she was pregnant. When she told him, he was so exited, he told his father. He was furious that his son had fell in love with the town horror. He had not minded her living there, until she had "raped", as his father put it, his son. The town believed him, and nine months later, right after Shania was born, Mara was executed. Natalie had not understood why her sister left for such a long time, without saying goodbye. That was when she realized Mara was not coming back. She cried and cried, until the matron came to pick her up. Then, she cried even more. So there she lived, not even considered an orphan, more of a maid, for the next ten years. So she was alone with a niece, of her own, that is, only during the day. The town pub was the only thing that kept her from putting a gun to her head. She could drink like a sailor, fight like a sailor, and talk like a sailor. That was what most likely brought the attention of a young new comer, Jack Sparrow. And his father, the captain of the Black Pearl, the most famous pirate ship. More of a myth than it being famous.
It was love at first sight. Actually, it was more like love at first drink. Or second drink. Or seventh drink. However, she knew that she loved him, and he knew that he loved those drinks she bought him. Nevertheless, he ended up falling in love, whether he liked it or not. Therefore, they decided to get married. After they had a few more drinks of course.
A few weeks later, after Natalie and Jack got married, she was pregnant. So, Jack decided that he would settle down with a family of his own, while his dad went on to become the worlds greatest pirate. However, his plans were changed a bit. After Natalie had her baby girl, Jacks father died. He had left the Black Pearl to his only son, so Jack had to leave his whole life behind him. His niece, beautiful wife, and his baby girl. Natalie was depressed, but she understood. They would see each other again, but in the mean time, she had to get out of Port Royal. Before Jack left, he asked Natalie to name her baby Crystal, because he had given her a crystal and diamond necklace for her to remember him by.
The day Jack left, they decided to leave to. Therefore, they went on to travel around, in hopes of finding a decent place to raise a child. So, they finally settled onto an island with a small village. Many families lived there, so this would become there new home. Shania was a very beautiful young girl, and many of the men were interested in becoming her husband. Therefore, one man asked her hand in marriage, and before they knew it, they were having twins. Only one of them made it.
