I already knows the answer I closes her eyes and hear my mother say Emma you are so strong you will be okay my sweet girl our little Pirate Princess. I sighs and gets out of bed and ready​ for the day. I go down stairs to my mother's​ dinner I  open the dinner/inn get breakfast for my costumers. When I  gets to Ms. Frountas room I nock softly she answers the door and invites me in.

When I enter I sites down next to Ms. Frountas there's my sweet girl how are you my dear? I'm fine  I say. She looks at me and says don't you lie to me. Ok fine I'm not ok my mama is dead same with my papa there both gone I'm an orphan I say as I cry. Oh hunny your parents love you so much. I look at her and say don't You mean loved?  No, she says they still love you and always will sweet girl. I know I just can't believe it. What am I going to do? I mean the last thing they both told me was to follow my dreams but we both know that means leaving this place. Hunny do me a favor will you go to my night stand there's a letter in it grab it for me. So I do I grad it about to hand it to her when she says it's for you read it.

Oh my sweet pirate princess go it's time you went. Everything will be fine just go. If you go look in the Attic you will find a chest look inside all of it is yours go use it I made them just for you. I love you go to the sea follow after your father. I love you and always will.

-Mama

I look up at Ms. Frountas she smiles and says she gave me that andtold me to give it to you. How? when? What the hell?! That's the reaction I expected out of you. Look hunny just go find the chest and go from there.

Up stairs was somewhere my mama did not like me to go. But here I am walking up the stairs to the Attic. I look around and find the chest I open it only to find clothes, boots, sword, daggers, etc. The sword was my father's. I.. I can't believe this. The clothes are perfect for pirating. Mama you little... A nock on the door. Emma will you come down stairs please? Uh yeah be down in a sec. I close the chest and go down stairs.

Everyone who knew and knows me is there (besides the pirates they come in the port in a few days). They all smile at me and say em we love you like family. You've helped everyone of us in some way. We won't to help you this time. I hug every single one of them they all brought me something. I say thank you so much everyone I love you too I am so lucky to have you guys in my life.

Three days later the ships came into the port and I was there  waiting for them. I go up to a pirate caption and ask him if he has any room for me or need. He says his ship is full and apologies. I say it's fine I think I ask around 5-7 different captions that day. nothing I tell Ms. Frountas she says kiddo they just aren't ment to be your caption will find you. I hope so I sigh.

The next morning a pirate came in asking for a place to stay the night he was a young man around his teens. I give him a room and start making him some food as I make it Ms. Frountas comes into the kitchen and asks have you found a caption that will take you on his ship.  The man says wait you want to be a pirate. I  look up and say yes I do my father was and I want to do the same I just haven't found a caption who will let me be part of his crew.  Well look if you really wanna do it then I'll have you on my ship. Really?? Yes look it's not my ship it's my captions but I think he wouldn't mind.

The next morning he takes me to his ship and intradises me to his caption now this caption is old mean and did I meantion missing teath and looks me up and down a few times?  The caption says fine and I have three days before they leave. I say that's fine. I go home and tell everyone. They congratulate me and help get everything I need.

The day finally comes I say bye to everyone and I'm off with my daggers in my boots and my father's sword at my side. When I get on the ship I realize I'm the only woman on the ship. Well then I'm just going to have to prove myself and what I can do.
