The Pirate and The Stowaway

It was the day of the markets, where ships from around the world docked to sell and buy what they needed for their journey. Of course there were pirates paying with their stolen gold, or stealing stuff off the docked ships. Either way this was the one day that the guard didn’t have the time to catch the pirates.

That same day a slave girl was headed to the market with her master, limping slightly favoring her left leg. Her eyes to the ground, she had an idea to leave him forever at least she hoped it would work because after last night she wanted to cry, her back had been shredded when she had forgotten her place as he had said and now she had walked all the way to the market but she had a plan. She would find a pirate ship and she would hide in a crate or a barrel and then whenever they arrived to where they were going she would run out and start her own life.
