Chapter 3- Welcome to Skull Island

It wasn't Subodai. Subodai didn't kill his father, Deacon did. Then why did Gaspard DeVole write in his letter to Wang Chun that Subodai killed his father? The answer was a few lines down Deacon's journal entry. Deacon had intercepted the letter and gave James a red herring by editing the letter. This made James angry. He grabbed the journal, put it in his pocket and waited for Deacon. Then, Deacon entered.

"Sorry I'm late, Captain Hawkins. Kane needed my help with nearly all the ship building for today," Deacon looked at him, "Right. Your promotion to commodore. The advantages of being a commodore are that you get more safety and more authority over troops. The disadvantages of being a commodore are that you don't go out into the skies as much and Kane will be expecting more from you. Do you accept the promotion?"

"No," replied James, "I love the sky and I don't want to leave it. I am not going to be a commodore. Thank you, sir."

With that, James left the cabin and searched for Egg. They needed to get away from the Armada.

James only managed to find Egg Shen by the time the Armada had reached Port Regal Skyway, in Skull Island.

"Egg, look at this," said James as he showed Egg Deacon's journal entry about his father's death.

Egg was shocked, "That Deacon, I never should have trusted him. OK, we're going to betray the Armada. I know it's crazy but we have to. It's the only way to escape."

James looked at him. The idea was crazy, but they couldn't stay with the murderers of his father. But, what James didn't know was that Optimus Veridius was listening to every word.

Egg and James were told by Deacon to watch the ship, while the Armada attacked Port Regal. They sat down, but then they heard people sneaking up behind them. Clockworks. And they were armed and ready to attack. James and Egg nodded to each other and attacked the clockworks. Then more clockworks appeared. They were doomed. Deacon walked up to them, with Optimus not far behind.

"Captain Hawkins, Vice-Captain Shen, you two are under arrest for treason. Hawkins, we will take you to Skull Island Skyway to be thrown overboard and into the world of Dragonspyre, to be exiled forever. If we find you, you will be sold into slavery. Shen, you are to be taken to Valencia to be hanged."

After the two were separated, James was in a cell. Then, Deacon came down and pushed four pirates, three boys and one girl into the cell with him. Not long until Skull Island Skyway, criminals. Your deaths are near. Then Deacon, walked back up to the deck. The pirates looked at him. They looked at his red hair, his red eyes, his red clothes. They smiled.

"Ye be James Hawkins, aye?" asked the silver-haired pirate. James nodded.

"We've bin looking fer ye fer ages!" exclaimed the blonde-haired pirate.

"The five captains that died searching for Deacon all had offspring. You're the last one that Captain Avery's looking for. He wants to ally with all of us so we can find the greatest treasures in The Spiral," said the brown-haired pirate.

He looked at the girl pirate with black hair. The girl hugged him. James was confused.

"Err... why is this girl hugging me?" asked James.

"She's yer sis. Two of the captains were husband and wife and they had two children. You and Black Bex here," replied the silver-haired pirate, "By the way, the name be Dustin Silver, also known as Silver Dust."

"I'm Nathaniel Sharp," said the brown-haired pirate, "I'm also known as Sharp Nate."

"The name be Dino Voss," added the blonde-haired pirate, "People call me Two-Faced Dino."

Black Bex let go of James and said shyly, "I'm your sister, Rebecca Hawkins. I like to be called Black Bex, however."

James looked at them all. He smiled.

"If we survive this, then my name be James Hawkins, also known as Red Jim. I'm in."

They all cheered for James. Then an explosion occurred on the deck.

"Get down there, monkey!" said a pirate, "They be down here."

"Alright zen!" replied an annoyed pirate with a Polarian accent.

"The name's Boochbeard," the pirate said, "This be me first mate, Mr. Gandry."

"Hello," said Mr. Gandry, a small but annoying monkey.

"You're The Flying Sloth!" said James.

"Aye that be me," replied Boochbeard, "Ye were raised in MooShu, weren't ye?"

James nodded. Boochbeard turned to the others.

"I guess ye found him then," he said, "Now we best be going!"

The pirates escaped Deacon's ship and took a ride on Boochbeard's ship to Avery's Court in Skull Island Town.

The pirates led James to Avery's house, where an old pirate was waiting for them.

"Welcome back, pirates," he said, "Oh, and well done! You've found him!"

"Me?" asked James, "my name is Red James Hawkins, also known as Red Jim."

"I see," replied the old pirate, "Well, my name is Captain Avery. Welcome to Skull Island, Captain."
