In my previous life, I was a Chinese. But I traveled through time to the amazing world of Caribbean pirates, and now I am the sweetheart of British governor Weatherby Swan, as well as the sister of little Elizabeth aged 8. I am 10.
Lizzy is a typical English little beauty, with golden curling hair falling loosely upon the shoulders. She has bright,green eyes, and skin which is fair and soft like newly-produced silk. She has a nice and thin chin which needs no decoration. And her lovely voice is able to make any gentleman or lady to come to her service willingly.
Our mother’s name is also Isabella. She died in the torrid India. Her death gave father great sadness so that after on year he posted away from the land of mourning and was positioned as governor of royal port in Caribbean Sea. We went aboard upon a well-equipped ship filled with “lobster soldiers”(because they always wear the hideous red uniforms) and now we are sailing on the sea.
总督起行,伦敦和印度方面都是相当重视的。
The voyage of a governor is of quite importance to London and India.
自然不会由我们一家单独离开,航行在这不安全的大海上。
Naturally, we are not leaving alone by ourselves, and sailing on the dangerous sea.
Navy Lieutenant James Norrington, who is now 17, escorts us to the royal port and will be the residential officer of the port. He is directly under father’s administrative jurisdiction. Right now he is warning Mr. Gibbs, the old rum-addicted sailor, not to frighten my sister who was just singing the pirate songs, with his normally apathetical and polite tone.
吉布斯先生被训了几句,不情不愿地走开,嘀咕着从怀里掏出酒瓶喝了一口。我正站在不远处等着他呢。
Mr. Gibbs walks away unwillingly after being complained, murmuring, taking out a wine bottle and having a big sip of his rum, while I am waiting for him not very far away.

Mr. Gibbs walks away unwillingly after being complained, murmuring, taking out a wine bottle and having a big sip of his rum, while I am waiting for him not very far away.
I knew this old man from the movies I watched in my previous life. He is a pirate who is addicted to shiny things and alcohol, but with rarely-seen tie of friendship. Furthermore, he can show a direction and give a hand to my sister Lizzy and Will Turner when they have trouble in future. So I let household maid buy two big barrels of rum and carry them aboard the ship without being noticed.
Mr. Gibbs saw me in the back. He quickly put away his bottle and shut his mouth tight, being afraid that I may have heard his comments about Elizabeth. I walked up to him, smiling, holding his arm and lifting up my face, asking: “Sir Why are you leaving in such a hurry”
吉布斯面色有点尴尬。他努力装出若无其事的样子:“没什么,小姐,我下去找些缆绳加固。”
Mr. Gibbs was a little bit embarrassed, though he tried to behave if nothing had happened: “Nothing, miss. I just want to go down and find some cables to fasten.”
