By Sophie Berry One very dark afternoon in 1727 on the Black Shadow schooner, the pirates heard some annoying but familiar voices, they sounded like this, “It’s for the navy huh, it’s for the navy huh.’’ The pirates realized that they were getting much closer as the captain {Jolly Roger Junior} wondered in his mind what was happening at this very moment. Then he recognized the voices and he quickly shouts, “Run it’s the Navy !’’ “Fire everything including rum!” The whole ship goes quiet. It didn’t look like Jolly Roger Junior was going to change his mind. While the pirates were setting the cannons and guns they were also weeping for their precious, deliciously tasting rum. They heard the Navy were planning an evil plan. The pirates could also hear their evil laughs, “mohahahaha,’’ as the pirates run around in rum shaped circles like idiots again and again. Drunkenly, the bloodthirsty captain was planning what to do with the Navy when all of a sudden the Navy appears from all the muggy fog. The navy throw giant grey glistening grappling hooks but the pirates stand their ground then the captain shouts, “ Fire!’’ A direct hit!!!! Well it would have been if the Navy didn’t cover the cannons with giant pink fluffy cotton balls. As the Navy surrounds the crew the captain appears dressed up into a weird but well known costume that will hopefully scare the Navy!!!! As the captain, Jolly Roger Junior comes out of the cabin, the navy gasps, “Its Blackbeard! He has risen from the dead!!’’ As the Navy screams off back to their ships the pirates celebrate in great happiness and don’t think they wasted the rum in the cannons. They sing a song everyone will know, “15 men on a dead mans chest. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!’’ The navy never ever bothered the Black Shadow again and some of the navy went to work for HMS (Her Majesties Service) thinking they would never see the Black Shadow again. The End
