Oh Captain, My Captain
Schone bunched her skirt in her hands and ran. The pirates had come to ransack the small village she lived in. With both her parents dead and the rest of her family still in Germany, Schone Seltsames Licht was nothing more than a poor street urchin. That didn't mean she wanted to be captured by pirates though. Schone looked behind her to see a pirate lazily turn a corner. She tried to run faster but her feet were sore and bruised already so she ducked inside the nearest pub to hide. The pub was called 'The Drunken Anchor' probably not the best place to hide from pirates. Schone poked her head up over the bar just as the pirate from the alley walked in. She ducked down quickly and hoped she was still safe. The pub was packed with dirty, scratched up men of all ages. Schone turned around and began to crawl back towards the door to the pub. She was almost there when a big black boot stopped her in her path. Schone started to look up and see who was standing there when something hard came crashing down on the back of her skull and the pub and the pirates faded into a black blur of silence.
