Okay guys, here is Chapter 5!! Hope you enjoy it. Happy reading!
Chapter 5
Brett and James rowed after the ship for hours, before finally
catching up with it as it anchored further on, during the day. Brett,
James, and Meg climbed aboard the pirate ship and straight into the
boatís cargo hold.
James found a rifle, picked it up and moved to the stolen treasure.
James lit an oil lamp, and the magnitude of the treasure was stunning.
Chests and bags were filled to the brim with jewels, money, gold and
diamonds.
ìMother of pearl,î Brett gasped.
ìI could live like a queen the rest of my life,í Meg said as she
picked up some necklaces and pearls and placed them in her pockets.
ìDo you see the box?î
ìThere it is,î Brett whispered as he walked toward a pile of riches
with the foot long box on top. ìYes, baby.î
Just then Meg ran over and tried to grab the box. Brett and Meg were
having a tug of war over it. ìItís mine!!!î
ìStop fighting over it! We donít even have a key yet!î James said to
the pair.
Meg gave one final yank over the box until it was in her hands.
Just then, Tessa stepped into the hold. She wore the same thing she
wore the last time they saw her, only one of her shoulder straps were
down. ìWhy is that box so precious to you?î
No one answered.
Just then, a shirtless Goodsport entered the room. His enormous
muscles looked oiled up and shiny. He stood a few feet behind Tessa
and begun to flex his muscles. He turned around, walked sideways and
pranced, flexing his muscles 100% of the time.
The same thought popped in Jamesí, Brettís and Megís heads: Why the
hell does he keep on doing that?
ìWhatís in the box?î
When Tessa was presented with silence, she snapped her fingers and
half a dozen Chinese pirates armed with rifles came down.
ìI asked you a question! Whatís in the box?!?î Tessa asked
demandingly. Behind her, sweaty Goodsport grunted in approval.
ìMy marble collection!î Brett answered. ìIíve had it with me since I
was six years old!î
ìBring me the box! Now, Goodsport can have something to play with,î
Tessa said. Goodsport flexed his muscles in approval.
One of the pirates stepped forward and tried to grab the box.
ìNO, The action figure is mine!î Meg screamed.
ìShut up!î Brett and James yelled in unison.
Meg grabbed the nearest pirateís handgun and shot the nearest two
pirates. The room was filled with gunfire as Brett grabbed a rifle
and went for cover. James meanwhile picked up two handguns and
started shooting.
ìGet down!î James yelled.
As more pirates came, Brett and James fought desperately to keep them
at bay.
One of the first pirates fired a shot that hit the oil lamp. The
lantern landed on the floor and started a fire nearby a box filled
with... FIREWORKS!
Seeing the fire, Meg grabbed the box and started to climb a rope
ladder.
ìYou double crosser!î Brett yelled, clearly pissed off.
But just then, sweaty Goodsport flexed his muscles, twisted his neck
and shot Meg right in the back. Meg fell down the stairs.
Tessa yelled a command in Chinese at her fellow pirates. Tessa,
Goodsport, and the others evacuated the premises.
Brett immediately left too, yelling at James to hurry up.
James took one last look at Meg and said. ìYou double crossing
bitch!î Then James left, clearly embittered by the turn of events
with Meg.
Tessa, Goodsport and the Chinese pirates evacuated and took off on
their own lifeboats away from the burning pirate ship. Brett got his
own lifeboat and was waiting for James.
ìJames! Come on!,î Brett yelled. ìLetís go!î
ìYes sir!î James yelled back and jumped from the ship and swam to
Brettís lifeboat.
ìGet us out of here!î commanded James. ìGo! Go!î
Brett rowed off as the two watched the pirate blow up and disintegrate
before their eyes.
