Pirate Story

On a dark and stormy night, the ship of the Black Death was sailing to mainland of Great Britain. The captain ran out of his quarters calling for the quartermaster. The quartermaster heard his calls and stumbled up to him.

“Avast, I need to ask ye a question.” said the captain.

“Aye, cap’n.” said the quartermaster.

The captain could tell he was loaded to the gunwalls.

“Do ye know how far out from the mainland we are?” said the captain.

“A good fortnight I would say.” said the quartermaster.

“We need to be getting there sooner. We running out of food and we need to pillage one of the ports to restock.” said the captain.

“I don’t know if this be a good idea cap’n. I heard they be putting the black spot on ye.” said the quartermaster.

“Bah, I'm not scared of some bilge rat putting the spot on me.” said the captain ”I’m going to spice the main brace and take a caulk.”

“Aye, cap’n.” said the quartermaster.

The captain went back to his quarters, knocked back a couple bottles of rum, and took a quick nap. He awoke to the sound of the quartermaster yelling for him.

“Shiver me timbers, what the blast be going on.” said the captain.

“We be under attack, cap'n. A British navy ship fired upon us from out of no where!” said one of the pirates.

“Where be the quartermaster I need to speak to him.” said the captain.

“Aye, cap'n. Here I be.” said the quartermaster “What should we do about this.”

“Signal to the British ship that we would like to make parley with them.” said the captain.

“Are ye sure cap'n. Ye seem to be a bit squiffy.” said the quartermaster.

“Aye, I be sure. We be running a rig on them.” said the captain.

The pirate ceased fire and sailed near the British ship. The captain, the quartermaster, and a few other pirates boarded the British ship.

“We noticed you ceased fire and sailed near us. So we figured you wished to parley.” said the captain of the British Ship.

“Aye, I need to ask ye some questions.” said the captain.

“Then I shall provide you with some answers.” said the British captain.

“Why did ye open fire on us.” said the captain.

“The British King found you to be to dangerous. So he put a bounty on your head.” said the British captain.

“Sink me, that be what I feared.” said the captain “Well if its me head ye want. Then ye going to have to put up a fight. Blow that man down, boys.”

Two of the pirates opened fire on the British captain.

Gasping for breath the British Captain said “You cheated.”

“It be a pirates duty to hornswaggle.” said the captain.

The captain smartly boarded back on to his ship.

“Raise the red flag, boys. Show those rats we shall give no quarter.” said the captain.

The ships fired on each other. Eventually pirate ship out fired the British Ship and sunk their ship.

“They be in Davy Jones’ Locker now, cap’n.” said the quartermaster.

“Aye, we be the most feared pirates in the seven seas.” said the captain.
