(Chapter 1)

A sinking feeling.

Thanks for reading (*-^) - Pirate face

"The ship's sinking!"

"Hurry, get a bucket and get the water out!" The self-proclaimed 'Captain' commanded her crew.

"Haden, we are in a row boat. We don't have a bucket!" Henry shouted back at her.

She stomped her way over to him -almost tipping the boat over as she did so. "Don't back sass me! And that's Captain to you!"

"Captain of a sinking row boat," he scoffed. "Real impressive. You know, if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't even be in this mess! So why dont you-"

"Guy's look." The youngest member of the group –Kylie- shouted out. "A pirate ship!"

Haden and Henry both looked.

"Holly crap." Henry said.

Haden beamed "That's the Black Pearl!"

All three kids stared at the Pearl in awe. It was massive, even from far away.

"I feel like a bug." Kylie said.

The kids stared at it for a while longer, until they realized it was comming closer.

"We should probably move away from it," Henry commented. "It could capsize us."

"AHHHOOOYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Haden called out.

"What the-" Henry cursed and grabbed the girls arm. How'd it get over here so fast? "Haden! Don't call out to them. Don't you know who captains that ship?"

She shrugged him off. "Of course I do. Why do you think I wana get on-"

The waves from the Black Pearl knocked over their boat.

~~~(*-^)~~~

Haden coughed up water as she was pulled onto the deck.

"Oye, is that a lass or a lad?" One pirate who had her arm asked.

"I really can't tell." Said the one with her other arm.

They jerked her to her feet.

"I'm a lass damn it!" She threw up some more water.

"Shure don't act like a lass."

Haden tried to push them off but with her scrawny little arms, that wasn't happening. "Where are the other two I was with!"

"Huh? What other two?"

Oh, God. Had they drowned?

Haden's eye's widened and a million thoughts ran through her head. "Lemme go!" Haden slipped through the men's arms, ran to the edge of the deck and screamed out bloody murder "KYYLLIIIEEEEEEEEEE! HEEEENNNNNRRRRRRRRRRRIIIII!" She lifted her foot up on the hand rail, ready to jump in after them.

"What are you doin' gurl!" Some scruffy old guy, with big sideburns pulled her back in.

Haden shot him an icy look. "Lemme go! I hafta-"

"Mr. Gibbs!" A very commanding voice sounded. "What is all this ruckus going on, on my ship!"

The captain.
