PROLOUGE
On an unmapped island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, is a city. And in this city is a captain, but this is no ordinary captain. Oh no, this captain is a pirate, a female pirate. Her name, Catalina DeMarco, Captain and Commander of the Black Pearl, fastest ship in all the seven seas. The island is now the home of her crew, family, friends, and herself. The island is called Paradise, because to them that is what it is, paradise.
Everyone was happy and everything was peaceful except for the occasional argument. However, one day five years ago, everything was not so peaceful. It was a day that changed everything and all because of a man named Diego Mentir. A military commander who wants the Treasure of Paradise, but could not have it for he does know where it is, only the captain an first mate of the Black Pearl does. So Mentir went off in search of Paradise and the Black Pearl. It took him four months to find the island and when he and his fleet of ships get there the Black Pearl was getting ready to set sail. There is a small struggle with minor injuries to both sides.
They captured the Pearl and her crew, however, no one would tell who the captain was, so he had all thirty members of the crew thrown in the penitentiary aboard the ship. When the ships returned to Japan four months later the Black Pearl's crew were to be put on trail if they did not tell who the captain was. in the end the crew was sent to jail until they decided to talk. The king had Catalina and two other females crew members named Kagome and Sango sent to his palace to become personal servants for his two sons and their cousin.
They have been at the palace for a little over a year when Catalina decides to run away. She runs into a group of bandits whom she hears plotting to kill the king. She sneaks into their camp after they take a momentary leave of absence and frees a female white tiger cup that they had captured. However, the cub kept following Catalina and the bandits heard the cub mewling at her and came back to camp. They see a girl messing with their stolen treasure and went after her. So she picked up the cub and ran away from the bandits. And this is where our tale begins…
