The boat scratched the sand as Severus and Lucius scrambled down the side to secure it. Once the ship was secured, the walkway dropped down. Captain Lord Voldemort walked down, the fluffy green feather on his hat bobbing as he walked. Severus and Lucius knelt before him.
"This is the island on the map," Lucius stated. Captain Lord Voldemort nodded, looking around.
"Good. I hope you haven't screwed up again, Malfoy," he stated.
"Yes, Captain," Lucius stated. Severus glanced at his crewmate. He knew Lucius was not in good standing with their captain. Lucius had tried to jump overboard to sleep with a siren, one Severus had almost fallen for himself. He'd also had the map upside down for half the voyage. Severus wasn't quite sure how he'd managed to do that.
As Captain Lord Voldemort walked, Severus and Lucius followed in his footsteps. It was something that kept anyone from know how many men had come ashore. Severus was fairly certain it was just another sign of the captain's paranoia.
"This way!" Captain Lord Voldemort called, leading his two crewmen up a large rocky hill. Lucius paled when they reached the top and all they could see was the sea itself.
"There's supposed to be a cave here," he stated, glaring at Lucius. Severus watched his crewmate go pale.
"My Captain, there must be a secret entrance? Maybe the map is wrong?"
"Maybe you took us to the wrong island again!" Captain Lord Voldemort yelled, stamping his foot. The rock beneath the three men shifted, cracking. They plummeted down, landing on top of one another.
"See, My Captain, there is a cave!" Lucius announced happily. Severus sighed.
"Wonderful, someone, give me a light," Captain Lord Voldemort ordered. Severus pulled some flint from his pocket and managed to strike a small fire on a stick. He held it up, it barely illuminated the large cavern.
"This is it," the captain yelled, running to far wall. Severus and Lucius followed. Captain Lord Voldemort grabbed the light from Severus, holding it up to the wall. It revealed several words written onto the rock face.
"No!" the captain howled, throwing the makeshift torch. He stomped around in the sand. Severus picked up the torch and read the wall.
"Captain Albus the Amazing was here. I got the treasure. Good luck, Lord Moldy!"
Lucius burst out laughing as Severus shook his head. Sometimes he wondered if maybe he should just turn himself in? Surely the royal prison would be less insane than this?
