Day 22: Pirates

Ahoy Me Hearties! This ye Avast captain, Bianca and welcome back to 30 Days Challenge. So, we're doing pirates today, which is one of my most awaited oneshots, although, this might also be one of the hardest to do because of the language (I seriously have to use a dictionary for this, so please bear with me. I'll add the website later) Now, Weigh anchor and hoist the mizzen lassies cause we are gonna go plundering! Enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a lot a harder than I thought... T^T

"Fire in the hole!" Captain Flint commanded as his crew fired of another cannon. It is tradition to pillage a fellow ship and sink it down under Davy Jone's Locker.

"All hail Captain Flint!" a crewman declared as they all raised their rum. They were all celebrating another victor of a plunder when the cabin boy shouted from the crow's nest.

"Storm's a comin' cap'n!"

All the laughter and music stopped. Captain Flint looked from the bow and saw that the cabin boy was right. A great storm is brewing their way.

"All man on deck! Initiate Man-O-War!" he ordered.

"Aye aye Captain!" the crew replied and began running around.

"Release the sails! Man the wheel! Go to paddle room!" he issued commands to others.

"Aye aye!"

Captain Flint was about to follow to the others to the paddle room when the cabin boy called out. "Cap'n! Big wave ahead from the starboard valve!"

"Blimey! Turn the ship to the portside!" he shouted to the person at the wheel. The crew did exactly that as the whole ship churned and the crew were almost thrown overboard.

"Arrgh you scallywags! Don't feed yourself to the fish right now!" Cap'n complained.

"Son of a Biscuit Eater! Big wave!" the first mate exclaimed. This time, they weren't able to avoid it, causing the ship to collide with the sea water.

"We need to find land!" Cap'n ordered.

"Where Cap'n? There's no land!" one crew said.

"Thar she blows! I see land! Far off to the starboard valve!" the cabin boy announced. All men on deck braced themselves as they approached said land.

Once they have arrived, the storm had passed. All men were drenched in cold seawater, lucky to have survived the storm.

"Shiver me timbers! That was one storm!" the first mate exclaimed.

"What are we going to do now Cap'n?" the youngest crewman asked.

"We fix the ship 'til we're able to sail again. All of you, swab the deck" Cap'n ordered.

"Aye aye Cap'n!" the crew replied.

"Yo ho ho!" they all cheered as the sun set in the horizon.
