You awake to a cold splash of sea water slam across your face, making it hard for you to breathe for a minute.
Looking around you still see nothing but open sea surrounding your small wooden boat. The events from earlier that day still haunt you to the core. You remember seeing both your parents getting dragged away onto a stolen caravan, while you only sat in horror, slowly drifting away. You wished you could've done something to help, but that would only lead to you being taken as well.
You weren't known for being the bravest princess, but more of the kindest. You would always visit town and help people however way you could. Everyone loved you for that. But when it came to risking your life for your kingdom. You wouldn't know what to do, you had no weapons nor knowledge of fighting. All you could do was... watch. Your father was the one to sort things out, you felt useless afterwards, but your father always cheered you up.
You hadn't realized you were crying till you felt the warm tears hit your hands, instead of the occasional cold spray of the sea.
You wiped up your tears and started looking out again. This time you spotted, what looks to be a trading ship. As it slowly got closer to your sad wooden boat, you stood up and started waving like crazy. As it started to pass by, you saw a flash of purple then a big thud was heard. You turned to see a man with long purple hair and golden eyes in the boat with you. You had to admit he was very handsome at first glance.
"Hey, grab my hand and I'll bring you up."
"Wha-" before the whole word could leave your mouth the strange man picks you up bridal style and hops onto the ship.
"Sin, don't go jumping off the ship like that! We all nearly fainted!" A little boy with white hair and freckles shouted.
Sinbad's POV
"Sin, don't go jumping off the ship like that! We all nearly fainted!"
Jafar yelled to me.
"Well I couldn't just ignore a beautiful woman calling for help!" I replied back. I look down at the girl I'm still carrying and notice how beautiful she is. Her (h/c) (h/l) hair really bring out her beautiful (e/c) eyes. (E/c).... Have I seen those eyes before. Now that I think about it, she seems very familiar. Where have I seen her.
I feel her start to tremble so I gently set her down.
"T-thank you so much, for saving my life. My name is (y/n)." A beautiful name for a beautiful woman, I think to myself.
"It's wonderful to meet you (y/n). My name is Sinbad, and this here is Jafar. And over there is Hinahoho and Mystras. Hinahoho's wife and child is at our company building." They all give a slight wave, and or a hello.
Your POV
I wave back to the people who were all introduced. It's lovely to see new people, especially ones with kind faces. Well except for Jafar who still seems a little pissed at Sinbad's actions.
"So... what were you doing all alone in the middle of the sea?" Sinbad asks in complete curiosity.
"Oh, I was... kicked out of my kingdom. Bandits attacked and I was lucky enough to escape without them seeing." I decided not to tell them I was royalty. And how the bandits were probably looking for me at the moment.
"What's your kingdoms name?"
Jafar asks, now looking concerned.
"(K/n)" I answer truthfully.
"Well (y/n), since you really have no where to go. How would you like to join me and my friends. We travel around the world to many different countries and ask them to join our alliance. So that we can build a country of our own that would change this world." He says proudly. I think for a moment. He was right, I really didn't have anywhere else to go, I can't go back, they'll take me and I won't be able to save my parents in the future... When I'm stronger. And yeah, his plan did seem a little wonky but he seems like a trusting guy. In which case I will trust him.
"If its okay with everyone else, then I would love to." I look around at everyone else and they give me a warm smile.
"It's fine by us" Jafar says while looking back at Mystras and Hinahoho.
"Well (y/n), welcome aboard."
As night fell you couldn't help but think of your family yet again. What if those bandits are looking for you right now. It won't be long till they put out a fine for you. And what about your parents, are they using them for slaves, are they demanding your parents to tell them where you are? Thinking about this makes you sick to your stomach. You went outside of your room that Sinbad so nicely gave to you. And went to the front of the ship to breathe in some fresh air. The sun had finally set and now it was completely dark out. But the moon lit up the whole sea, like one big night light in the sky. A breeze picks up and blows your (h/l) hair. You close your eyes and let all the pain slowly flow out of you.
"HEY (Y/N)!!!" Sinbad shouts in your ear making you jump like a frightened cat.
"WHAT THE HECK SINBAD!" You shout back pissed.
"DO you know how to cook?" He asks you while tilting his head to the side.
"Why, can't you?"
"Heh.... nope"
"Alright fine."
As you finished cooking you called them over to eat and they all ran over like there's no tomorrow. They sat down and started to dig in right away. You were the only one eating normally and Jafar too. He's a good kid.
"Don't you guys have any.... manners?" You ask trying not to sound too rude.
"Yes but, Hinahoho's wife isn't here to tell us otherwise." Sinbad says while shivering thinking about what she would do if she found out.
"So she's kind of like the mom here?"
"Pretty much" Hinahoho replies.
"If not it's Jafar" Sinbad mumbles but jafar picks up on it, rewarding sinbad with a good karate chop in the side.
As you all finish up, everyone starts to head back to they're room, as well as you. As you reached down for the door knob you were stopped by a hand. You look up and see Sinbad.
"Hey Sin." You catch him off guard by the sudden use of his nickname.
"Wow, already calling me by my nickname." He smiles gently not breaking eye contact.
"...yup" you start to enter your room but is stopped again.
"What is it?" You ask growing irritated. But still not trying to sound rude.
" uhhh... I forgot sorry..." He backs up and walks away.
"Oh ok?" You enter your room and lay on your bed. You look up at the ceiling.
"Was this a good idea?" You ask yourself. You lay for awhile before drifting off to sleep. Dreaming about what kind of journeys lay ahead.
