They had lost their ship the Jolly Roger, most of their crew.
Oh, yes.
For weeks now, the elegant, sophisticated, coiffed, genteel and distinguished Captain Hook and his loyal first mate, Mr. Smee have been marooned on a small island where their pursuer, the giant octopus couldn't find them.
"It's sure quiet out there" whimpered the first mate. "Maybe, I should check."
"No, Mr. Smee!" barked Hook.
"Don't you realize that if we go out there, that thing could be waiting for us and glob us? No, we are staying on this island until it gives up and it will leave us alone."
Upset, Hook sat down on a tree stump and lowered his head, one hand holding his now rusted hook.
Me ship is gone he thought to himself. Me crew has been eaten by that monster. What else can Pan torture me with?
Tears fell from the pirate's eyes.
It didn't take long for the captain to turn around and sae Mr. Smee sleeping in a cave close by the tree stump.
Annoyed and helpless, Hook got up and walked over to the beach.
He looked upon his reflection in the ocean water and staring back at him is a man in torn clothing, his hair a mess.
The only thing that made him ridiculous was the broken bucket around his waist.
Seething with anger, Hook ripped the bucket off him, which ripped off the remaining of his shirt and revealed his chest, and threw it as far away as he could until he heard a splash.
He wished that he could have go down with the ship. He wished he could hide in a cave with a campfire. But, what he really wanted was his own ship back, sitting in his cabin and in bed.
The wind blew across the pirate's face, making him feel cold.
Suddenly, an orange tentacle emerged from the ocean.
Oh, no Hook thought fearfully. Not again.
The pirate tried to run, but the giant tentacle grabbed him by the ankle, making him trip over.
"Ah! SMEE!" yelped Hook.
The first mate came running towards shore, but backed away when he saw the beast.
However, the octopus grabbed Smee around the waist.
Then, the octopus picked up Hook and it growled at him.
He was scared out of his wits as the monster breathed in his face.
"No, no" Hook pleaded.
But it was no use, the octopus threw Hook into its large mouth.
The pirate went down the giant animal's throat, screaming!
Smee was scared.
He bit into the octopus' tentacle, forcing the monster to let him go.
The octopus swam away, diving back into the ocean.
Mr. Smee was relieved he escaped, but he was guilty; he had lost his captain.
"CAP'N!" cried the first mate.
He tried to race to the ocean, but he realized he couldn't catch up to that monster.
Then, something pinched his foot.
Looking down, Smee saw that his captain's hook sitting close to his feet.
He picked it up.
The hook was now rusted and lost its silver color.
The first mate held the hook close to him and tears ran down his face.
Everything was dark inside.
It was dark, slimy and full of skeletons of eaten pirates.
But for Hook, he wasn't giving up the fight to stay alive.
Every second turned into minutes. The minute turned into hours, it was all frightening!
The captain charged toward the octopus' mouth, only to bounce off the walls of the mouth.
Angry and very desperate to escape, Hook tries again, only to bounce off the walls again.
"Great Scott!" hollered Hook. "I'm inside a monster!"
But, no matter how hard he tried, Hook couldn't get the octopus' mouth open.
It wasn't until he couldn't take it anymore.
With tears in his eyes, Hook slid down the mouth wall and sat down on the tongue.
He was petrified of being here. In the belly of the beast.
"I never wanted it to end this way" sniffled Hook.
"This is why I DETEST cephalopods! How will I ever get out of here?!"
He fell on his knees in a trembling heap and began to sob.
Tears ran down his face and his handless arm against his chest.
Hook had no idea what to do. He didn't want to be here, but he had no choice but to endure this dark, cruel fate until he dissolves into nothingness.
There's no way out of this dark place Hook thought to himself. I can't be free.
"I'd give anything to get out of here!" he wailed.
He continued to sob until he was tired of sobbing and he fell asleep.
