Sea Patrol-Lost Forever

Chapter 1: The Perfect Birthday

It was a normal day, the sun shining and some of the Hammersley crew were out on watch and 2Dads said, "Morning to one and all!" Charge and Bird smiled, he also said "You know this is the perfect day for sunbathing or working out while on watch." All three of them laughed. Co came to the bridge and said, "Morning, 2Dads go and wake Dutchy, Ro and Swain up, and Bird can you wake Bomber and Kate up? Thanks." 2Dads and Bird went to wake the crew up but there was no sign of them. So Bird went to tell the Co but he wasn't there either. Where were they? . . . . She went out on the deck and the crew were there and shouted "Happy birthday Bird!" she went bright red and everyone had given her gifts like a necklace, perfume, a knife, ect. And she said, "Thank you everyone for the gifts, the surprise and the thought so thank you. This is the perfect birthday."

They all went to the bridge and the Co said, "Listen up, 2Dads you're on watch duty, Bomber, Ro, Charge, Dutchy and Xo you're all on standby for the first rib, and last but not least Bird and Swain you are on bridge duty and Swain you are also obviously on medic duty. So everyone make a move." They all moved at once but Charge and 2Dads moved first and tried to get through the door at the same time. Bomber and Swain smiled, and she said, "2Dads, let Charge through the door first for crying out loud. And hurry because I want my brew." Charge smiled, 2Dads also did but in a sarcastic way and then said, "Ladies first." Charge did a fake laugh then went through the door.

A few hours had passed and Ro said, "It's a good day today so far and do you want to know why?" Swain and Dutchy shook their heads then Dutchy said, "Because you aren't on watch duty, bridge duty or you just like today." Ro smiled looked out into the sea, turned to Swain and joyfully said, "Because its 13:00 and we haven't had any call out or any maydays and that is a first since about 2 months ago, but anyway I'm off to make a cuppa do any of you want one, or a snack?" Swain smiled, waited a moment and then said, "Oh yes please and can I have a snickers bar, do you want one Dutchy?" Dutchy shook his head then went to work out. Ro went inside. Dutchy shouted, "I might go and sunbathe." Swain laughed and then shouted back, "We haven't got any sun loungers, so you'll have to put a towel down." They both chuckled.
