"Where is Jesper?" I asked furiously. "He was supposed to be here forty five minutes ago! Look. The sun is way past the middle!" All of the sudden, I saw a smoke rising from the East. The I saw Jesper- Running from the East. His eyes were wild. What was wrong.
"Hal is the boat ready?" He screamed from fifty meters away. "Yes Jesper! Why are you so late?" I screamed back.
Then I saw the reason he was running. There were ten angry Skandanians in pursuit of him. "What did you steal?" I said. He was now only ten meters away. He didn't answer. "Get ready to row!" I commanded the crew.
Jesper jumped onto the Heron, and landed so hard that the whole ship rocked.
"Row!" I bellowed over the sound of the riot that was dangerously close to the dock. We were about fifteen meters away when the crowd reached the shore. On of the most angry people actually jumped into the water.
"Jesper!" I screamed! "What did you steal?" I questioned him. I was so angry, I could feel my my face turning red.
"Well, I just took a couple of fish, for the trip... Then on my way out of the market, I bumped into the man I got the fish from... He was angry, so I ran as fast as Icoukd. I knocked o Ed some things... or a lot of things, and then everyone was after me," Jesper said, trying to not look me in the eye.
"Whatever," I said, "But you're on your own when we get back." In the rush, I forgot to check the wind and the other weather. At that point, I was so angry I didn't care.
"Ok, stop rowing. Ulf and Wulf, get to the sails. We're turning South," I said while turning the tiller. This raid better be worthwhile, I thought.
Sorry for the wait! I'm busy at school. I'll try to be faster next time!
