Chapter 1: Emotions of the ocean

As the ship anchors down it stop rocking back and forth. I woke up next to my sword and put on my corset and blue skirt outfit. As I walked onto the upper deck. I saw my deckhands make mechanical repairs on deck.

As I walked over to my mother Rosabelle Stone who is now the Captain in charge of my father's ship after his tragic accident. I remember back I was clinging next to my mother's side at my Father's funeral service. I remember shaking in fear of death. Tears running constantly down both sides of my mother's cheeks as she struggled every word of her speech.

I said, calmly holding back my tears. "Mother, are we sailing ashore anytime today?" My mother looked at me and said, "Yes my dear sweet child. We need to get some things settled ashore today."Then my mother looking down gently and said, "Mia go get the letter from your father's old desk, It's important it's from Kari and you should go down below deck to read it in private." said mother

I walked down below deck to my father's old desk. I looked at the photo that had him and me holding my first sword when I was young. I remember when dad was teaching me how to swing a sword. He started me out using a wooden shaped sword. I picked up the letter on top of his desk. I walked down below deck to my room and sat down in my favorite chair and opened the letter from my friend Kari.

Dear Mia, I am very sorry about your father's passing and I wish I could have been there for you, however, I am glad to tell you that I and Kai are getting married. I would like to have you, as one of my maid of honors, if you would bless me with your presence and see me in three months time in the Rose Kingdom, love your friend

Kari Rose.

P.S. I'd like it if you throw my bachelorette party

I folded the letter and smiled in excitement for Kari. Then, my Mother, Rosabelle yelled, "Mia come here!!" I hurried up to the upper deck and my mother said, "So what did Kari have to say?" I smiled gently at her. "I need a dress and learn how to throw a bachelorette party!" Then my mother goes to say "Bachelorette parties are fun for the bride to have one last wild night of fun together with her best of friends."

As my mother smiled. I nodded my head in understanding then she said, "When I first met your father I knew he was the man for me. For that our love would last forever, that was real and true love." I looked at my mother as I sat down on a wooden crate and my mother said, "when I was young I thought love was just a myth. It was like a fairy tale to me. I was about 21 and at the time. I dwelled in the moon kingdom."

Then my mother's eyes got softer as she continued back down into memory lane of her love for my Father. My mother continued with the sadness she spoke "I was a bartender at the time and have only known that life after running away from home. Leaving the life of being a child behind me. Made no difference except that I worked day in and day out." I looked at my mother realizing that my mother had it hard as a child and being a hard worker. I've been learning my father's trade ever since I was three.

I'm inquiring to learn more. I gazed at my mother, "when did you meet dad??" She smiled holding my hand and said "One night when the moon was vast illuminating the night sky. John Also who was a usual at the pub strolled into the pub as always. Something happened to change the one night I was doing my rounds of drinks. There walked in John arms around your Father with his blue eyes, blonde hair, and blood dripping from his chest. I ran to John as fast as I could and it was the only time I ever saw John crying and requesting for help from me. He's normally drunk and disorderly touching my buttocks while demanding me to dance with him on the floor. That was the night I fell for your father." Well, there is more to it then just that.

My eyes widen at my mother and knowing my father was reckless even back then but he was still an amazing father
