CHAPTER 16
A little breeze was blowing across the sea coast, which soon calmed down, and the weather was good again. The Royal ship was sailing happily. It was a beautiful morning. The fishes in the sea are limping for joy, and the water was blue. The sky worn its beautiful look, until a rugged ship lumbered along like a drunken man, the pirate ship was moving across. Captain Casablanca walked before his men with great pride to arouse their confidence. ‘Comrades, today, we’ll make history for ourselves. Today our story will be told in the mouths of the world of how great and fearsome we are.’ The pirates roared in praise. ‘We’ll capture the Prince of England, and it’s going to make us very rich. Don’t you think, comrades?’
‘Yes, Captain,’ they roared. Captain Casablanca continued, ‘we’ll not destroy their ship, and we must not kill the Prince, but every other person in the ship will die,Related chapters

CHAPTER 1In16 AD, after the death of our Lord Jesus Christ, a fog covered the whole sea; at a distance, a sound could be heard faintly, from afar, on the seashore. Moment after moment, the faint voice began to get clearer more and more, and thereafter, the sound became clearly heard. “Hum- ah, aa- ah, the king of the sea comes around. Hum-ah! All you men, run-run, run away, hum-ah!” Moment later, a very rugged and scary ship emerged out of the sea, lumbering left and right like a drunken man, as it reveal itself and the crew onboard.

CHAPTER 2‘Row’ Captain Casablanca shouted to the crew onboard, ‘to the blue sea for the raid.’ The pirates shouted with excitement, and sailed on. He stood on the deck of the ship, looking into the water as it flowed, smiled to himself, ‘Life is beautiful.’ He began to think of how soon, he will get all he wanted, through the raid, before Zealot interrupted his thought.‘Captain, Captain.’‘Yes, Zealot, what’s it?’‘The cruise ship we’re expecting is now within the view.’ Zealot said, smiling.

CHAPTER 3It was a little chilly the next morning. There was a little fog outside. At the down side of the basement in the Orlop of the ship, were prisoners kept in the prison, captured from the cruise ship. The place was dirty. Some men were sitting down dejected, while some were standing, holding to the bar of the prison cell. Men and woman were put in different cells. A pirate walked to the prison gate, smiling with his gaped teeth, eating a lap of a chicken. The prisoners rose up when they saw him, salivating.‘You want some?’ He tossed it before them. They’re very hungry, looking at the man as he ate it. Four out of the prisoners are young boys, while the rest are adults. When the pirate saw their reaction, he threw the remaining part of the chicken into the cell, and they scrambled for it. The pirate was enjoying the show, laughing

CHAPTER 4Some pirates were singing on the other side of the deck, and playing accordion, while some later joined in dancing, and they created a scene for the others to watch. Captain Casablanca walked out of his cabin, watching them too. As he was watching a thought came into his mind. He spoke to himself, speaking out his thought, ‘could it be a good move?’ He smiled, having got a satisfactory answer within himself. He walked back to the cabin, sitting on the chair, and sat there for some minutes, thinking and then walked out, and called a pirate. The pirates were still playing music. ‘Hey, come here.’‘Yes, Captain.’‘Get me Zealot and Thomas.’‘Aye, Captain.’ He quickly moved away.Some minutes later Zealot and Thomas walked down to Captain Casablanca cabin, and entered in.‘Sit down, comrades. I have a serious matter to discuss with you. You know we have a gre

A pirate was telling a story to some of the colleagues.‘I remember when the war of Kinsale began. We all thought that it will be the end of Ireland.’ He looked at his colleagues, and discovered they were all listening to him, he continued, ‘the leader of the rebel was a very strong soldier. Hum, I’ve forgotten his name.’A man shouted from behind, it’s because you’re telling us lie that’s why you forgot, Lukas. You’re not there, how do you know the story? Why don’t you

Don’t you mind?’‘Why?’ she asked.‘It’s just,’ he stuttered, ‘I see it as a nice thing. More so, I will be there to protect you against any enemy.’ He brought out his gun, showing her. Ritaline smiled, ‘Really?’‘Yes.’‘Okay. I’m ready. Aren’t you ready yet?
