A/N: Hi again, Yarin here. Well, my aunt is in town with her two dogs. They are both puppies and they are cool. I think that they're dachshunds, but I'm not sure and I can't ask because my aunt's asleep. It always seems to be late at night when I'm writing. Ah well, you've heard me talk enough, time to read the rest of the story:
Chapter 7The Bilgeblood bobbed up and down as the waves ran across it and carried it ever closer to the shore. Captain Waveclaw smiled grimly as he looked over the edge of the ship. Those hares really meant business. They weren't just going to let him pass through.
"We'll just have to do battle with 'em," thought the foxcaptain aloud. "They probably aren't even trained properly. We'll rough them up a bit!"
"What was that, Cap'n? You want me to scrub the ship?" said Kleffer, the loyal shipmate of Waveclaw.
"No, I said 'rough them up a bit', you idjit!"
"Sorry, Cap'n. Me ears must be failin' me!"
"Oh shut yer whinin' gob an' get back to scrubin' the cabin floors. Go now, let's not wait for the world to turn!"
"Aye aye, Waveclaw!"
"That's 'Cap'n' Waveclaw to you, oaf!" shouted the foxcaptain as his shipmate rounded the corner and disappeared behind a door. Waveclaw grunted, shook his head, and turned back to face the monstrous mountain that stood before him. The waves grew smaller, and the ship stopped rocking as much in the water. The land was getting closer.
Turning to face the deck, he looked through the window on the cabin wall from the outside. Sure enough, the oaf of a searat was still scrubbing away at the floors, fussing about the littlest speck of dust that collected on the hardwood ground. He laughed and turned back to the wondrous ocean. How beautiful it was with the sunlight reflecting off of it!
But the foxcaptain saw nothing. He did not notice the beautiful sunset. He saw no beauty in the world. He was just a cold-hearted creature that killed anything in the way of him and what he desired. The foxcaptain ripped his head from gaze at the water and changed his eyes to look at the mountain. That was what he desired now more than anything.
Just then, there was a loud BANG! The foxcaptain turned to see Kleffer rounding the corner after shutting the door too hard.
"You idjit, are you tryin' to wake everybeast up? Those long-eared oafs will get out of their sleep and look at us to see us a-comin' to their homeland! If we keep quiet, they won't notice us slippin' on to the shore!"
"Dur hur, that's a good'un Cap'n, maybe 'un of yer best plans yet!" laughed the searat idiotically.
"It ain't a plan, bottlenose, it's a an excuse for you to stop being stupid. Now stop being stupid!"
"Aye aye, Cap'n!" said the rat as he saluted and pointed back towards the cabins. "Now, if you'll excuse me, Cap'n Waveclaw, I got's ta get back to a-scrubbin'!"
"Pff, whatever. As long as it doesn't wake those rabbits up, cut off your ears and dance a jig for all I care. Just remember to be quiet!"
"Yessir!" said the searat as he turned and dashed back into the cabin room.
The foxcaptain smiled and turned back to Salamandastron. His mouth drooled and foamed in excitement. He couldn't wait until it was in his possession!
A/N: So yeah, it was a little longer. I think this might be a little more enjoyable to read then some of the other chapters, because now you know how the captain and his first mate act. Well, see you next chapter!
