Pirate Princess

Chapter 5

Several hours later, Mysteri and Cinder were sitting in an abandoned house on the outskirts of town. After stealing some needles and thread to fix her favorite yellow shirt, some sparkly pink fabric caught her eye. That would be perfect for her ball dress for the Queens party, so she stole that too. She had finished repairing her shirt and was now humming It’s a Pirate’s Life for Me, quietly to herself and Cinder while working on her new dress. She had learned to sew from one of the men on board her ship. He was a carpenter and needed to know how to sew in order to fix the tears in the masts. Mysteri had also used this skill to stich up her men when they were injured. She giggles to herself because this is the first time she’s ever sewed anything as fancy as this before. Cinders ears perk up at the sound. He loved to hear her laugh and she often laughed because of him. Finally, her dress was finished. Now how to make a grand entrance to the royal party? She also needed to stich up the gash across her chest. That’s going to scar…oh well, I have lots of them. It’s just another story to tell my crew.
