Chapter 1 The Pirates and the Past

Chapter one's plot is when Will is found. I tell what happened on his ship. Will's ship is The Rusty Ruby. There's one new character, Haley Taylor. Her father and Will's father are both best friends, so are they're children (Will and Haley). The two friends are fourteen.

The teens are below deck, the living area, while the adults are up above tending to the ship.
" Drink up, me harties, yo ho, yo ho!" The two friends sing as they run around the room.
" Yo ho, yo ho, A pirates life for me!" They continue. Haley falls to the ground with laughter followed by Will.
" Hey, the words to the song, ' a pirates life for me' do you really think that's the life for you?" Haley asked looking over at her friend.
" I guess so." Will said, " What about you?"
" Sure." Haley replied, " I wanna explore, see the sights, I wanna see the world. Will you come with me?"
" I wouldn't want anything more." Will said, " I promise. We'll even seal the deal."
Haley had thought they'd shake on it, 'cause that's how you'd 'seal a deal'. But, to her surprise, Will took her hand held it, and kissed her. (Not on the hand, the lips.) The two pulled apart and stared into each other's sea blue eyes. Suddenly, the door swung open and a pirate stood in the doorway with a sword and a pistol. He wasn't one of their own pirates, he was an enemy.
" Aye!" he yelled. The two were startled as their hearts pounded so hard; you could almost hear it. Will turned around and grabbed a sword that was on the wall. He was ready to fight. Even though the were at a young age both were very talented and skilled.
" Haley, get behind me!" Will yelled. Haley took another sword that was on the same wall and stood loyally by her friend. She wasn't gonna let him take the pirate on alone.
" You two Brussels sprouts don't stand a chance against me!" the pirate said with an evil laugh. Two other evil pirates stood beside him.
" Get the boy, he's bootstraps kid." The pirate in the middle ordered.
" And what about the girl?" another asked.
" It's bad luck to have a girl on the ship, kill her!" he ordered as the one in the middle drifted above deck where screams can be heard. The two pirates charged at the teens.
" Sweet Potatoes!" Haley said. This was a phrase she said randomly if she was mad or angry.
There was a small sword fight between Haley and her opponent. It ended when Haley kicked him ' in the you know where'. And shoved him in a closet, then she stuck the sword in between the handles of the closet, so he couldn't get out.
" Go!" Will yelled at Haley, he wanted her safe.
" No." Haley wasn't going to leave her friend alone with some pirate. But, before she could help her mother took her above deck. Mother and daughter avoided pirates as they waited for a lifeboat. Finally, Haley spotted Will. He was running frantic around the edge of the ship. Haley perked up a bit when she saw her friend was safe. Just then a cannon was blasted, just missing Will but, from the impact, he fell into the ocean.
" Will!" Haley screamed with tears streaming down her face and her cinnamon brown hair waving in the misty wind. Will is later rescued and Haley is taken to a near by town. Both are separated and safe.
