I do not own…
'Shiver my timbers
Shiver my soul
Yo Ho He Ho
There are men whos hearts are black as coal
Yo Ho He Ho'
A young girl by the age of 8 walked out of the house before locking it and ran towards the docks with her bag on her back. She had long brown hair in a ponytail, blue eyes and was dressed in boys clothes, along with a pirate hat. While she was running she managed to sneak an apple off on the fruit cart ladies. They scowled her but did nothing as they were used to it.
'And they sail their ship across the ocean blue
A bloodthirsty captain
And his cut throat crew
It's a dark tale as was ever told
Of a lust for treasure
And a love of gold.'
Shiver my timbers
Shiver my sides
Yo Ho He Ho
There are hungers as strong
As the winds and tides
Yo Ho He Ho'
The little girl made it to the docks and was admiring every ship that she came across. She watched how every crew of every different ships were either restocking, making sure the ship was prepared or was about to set sail. She chuckled a little as two pirates were fighting over their payment.
'Every man abroad would have killed his mate
For a bag of ginnys or a piece of eights
A piece of eights
A piece of eights
5,6,7,8
Hulawoka, Hulawoka
Something's not right
Many wicky Yicky things gonna happen tonight
Hulawoka, Hulawoka
Sailorman beware
When there's money in the ground
There's murder in the air
Murder in the air
One more time now'
On one part of the dock the little girl stopped by one ship and smiled when she saw the captain of the ship coming out of her quarters. The woman held her head with pride and confident as she looked at her crew.
'Shiver my timbers
Shiver my bones
Yo Ho He Ho
There are secrets that sleep with Davy Jones
Yo Ho He Ho
When the main sails set
And the anchors weighed
There's no turning back from any course that laid
And when greed and felony sail the sea
You can bet your boots
There'll be treachery
Treachery
HA, Ha, HA!'
The captains scanned over her crew but stopped and narrowed her eyes narrowed at one man. He was trying to hide something that didn't belong to him. The man saw her looking at him and flinched when she walked over to him with her right hand man by her side and took out his pistol as she pointed it at him.
'Shiver my timbers
Shiver my sails,
Dead men tell no tales.'
Bang!
The captain shot the man right between his eyes and blew out the smoke from the pistol as the man fell.
"Let this be a lesson to ye all. Anyone that dares steal from me will be shot. Am I clear." The Captain said with a cold glare.
"Aye, Captain Meri!" The crew said
"Get to work." She ordered as she handed her right hand man his pistol back.
She walked over to the dead body took the necklace that he tried to hide in his shirt.
"Throw this bottom feeder to sharks." She ordered
"Aye, Captain!" Two crew members said
They grabbed the man by his arms and legs and tossed him in the ocean. After placing the necklace in her pocket Meri turned around and saw the little girl on deck.
"Hi mom." The girl smiled
"Cordelia, darling." Meri smiled
She crouched down and opened her arms as her daughter ran to her to hug her. Cordelia squealed in delight when her mother picked her up and spun her around. Meri only showed her cold hearted side to others but never towards her daughter. The same with her crew. They were tough, throat cut bloody pirates to others but they were very protective of little Cordelia.
"Ready to set sail, darling?" Meri smiled when she put her daughter down.
"Aye, aye Captain." Cordelia saluted
Meri laughed before her face turned back to serious and started barking orders to the crew. After a few minutes they set the sails and were out in seas. Cordelia smiled as she watched the ocean. She never wanted to be apart from it.
It wasn't long till it was night and Meri was putting Cordelia to bed, well was trying to. She knew that when the full moon out neither of the females are able to sleep. Meri finally got ahold of her daughter, which made the child giggled and placed her in her little bed.
"Bedtime, little sparrow." Meri smiled and tucked her in.
"Story time, first." Cordelia smiled
Meri laughed as she sat down. She was about to tell her a story till her first mate came in with worryness on his face.
"Captain." He said
"What's wrong?" She asked
"It's the East India Trading Company." He said
"Buckett." Meri glared and stood up. "How close are they?"
"They're far, but catching up." He said
"Mama?" Cordelia asked in worry.
"Stay here, dear no matter what." Meri said
Before the little girl could say anything else Meri shut and locked her door. The next thing she knew there were gun and cannon power. Knowing that a battle was happening Cordelia quickly got dressed and had her sword at the ready. She hid and waited for her mom or her first mate to tell her everything was over. Suddenly someone was trying to open her door and after few times the person kicked it down. The little girl flinched but didn't make a sound from her hiding spot. She heard their footsteps getting closer towards her till a gun shot was heard.
"Cordelia." A familiar voice whispered
"Mr. Cutler." Cordelia said as popped her head out of her trunk.
Siman Cutler, Meri's first mate, and trusted friend. The man quickly scooped her out the trunk and hurried her out of the room.
"By captain's order I'm gonna gets you out of here." Hook said
"Where's my mom?" Cordelia asked
"She's fighting off Buckett, right now." He said
He had to stop when one of Buckett's men came in front of them and Cutler unsheathed his sword. With skilled and quick moves Cutler was able to take the man down. Then he got a row boat and placed her inside. While he was hauling it down Cordelia saw her mom fighting off a few army men and one was shorter than the others. When Meri kicked down two men she looked over them.
"Get her out of here Cutler?" Meri ordered
Then the short man looked where they were.
"Get the girl." The man said
With his order a few guards ran down towards them. Cutler quickly haul her down as fast as he could. When the rowboat was placed down he quickly jumped off the boat and dived into the sea. He resurfaced in matter of minutes and got on the boat. Then with a wave of Meri's hand the waves started pushing them away from the ship.
"Mama! Mama!" Cordelia called out
Meri looked at them with a tear running down her cheek and place a hand on her carb heart locket.
"Calypso, take her somewhere safe, please." She whispered
Suddenly a bright green light appeared in the ocean and it created a whirlpool.
"Mr. Cutler, what's going on?" Cordelia asked in fear.
"I'm not sure." Cutler said as he tried to row them away from it.
He tried with all his strength to row them away but the pull of the whirlpool was too strong that it ended up swallowing them up.
The green light turned into a bright flash.

Cordelia eyes opened at sudden strange dream. She sat up in her bed and saw that she was in her room in Auradon. For as long as she could remember she has been having that dream and never understood what it meant. Deciding to shake it off she got up and went to open up her balcony door. The sun brightly down on the lands but Cordelia only had eyes on the sea. With a smirk the 16 year old girl hurried to her closet and quickly changed into something for what she was about to do. Once she was done she sneaked out of her home and drove her motorbike towards the beach.
The sea was always the place she enjoyed being around. After placing her bag over her shoulder she ran in the water and dove inside. It wasn't long till she reached the bottom of the sea Cordelia swam around the coral reef. Like always she was looking for new treasures to decorate her room. Unlike other people she didn't have to worry about air. She found a few things new and was about to head back till something caught her eye. A small chest that was half buried at the bottom of the sea floor. Not able to resist something like this she started digging it up and swam to the surface with it.
"I thought that I would find you here."
Cordelia smiled as she looked up and saw her friend Piper: daughter of Peter Pan flying above her. She is her best friend and always enjoys going on adventures with Cordelia.
"Can you carry this to land for me, please?" Cordelia asked
"Sure thing. Meet you there." Piper laughed
She got ahold of the chest and flew to the beach while Cordelia swam towards it. When they reach the shore they quickly tried to open the chest. Thanks to their other friend Adin, son of Aladdin and Jasmine's, she knew how to pick a lock. When they heard the click; Cordelia opened it and frown when she saw nothing but sand in it.
"That's a bummer. Well at least the chest will be a good place to put my jewelry in." Cordelia said
She empty it out and something shining fell out of it along with the sand. It looked like a necklace as she saw the gold chain it was hanging off of. She picked it up and saw that it was a gold medallion with a skull hanging off of it.
"Wow, Piper, have you seen anything like this before?" She asked
Piper sat next to her and looked at the medallion.
"No, I never have. It could be a pirate medallion." Piper said
That's when Cordelia got an idea.
"Well there is only one person that will know." Cordelia smirked
Piper smirked too as she knew who she was talking about.
"Oh, this will be fun. We haven't been to the Isle in a while. It'll be fun messing around with old Hook again." Piper laughed
"You're so much like your father." Cordelia smiled
"And proud of it." Piper smirked
