fdgdgvvh this means that it's a letter or excerpt from a letter, nothing to important.
I stayed by the side watching land leave my view and water replacing my sight. I finally decided to go to my room and i saw i had my own room and i smiled, Big Brother gave me so much on this trip, there was a note on the bed.
Dear Alfred,
I am very proud of you to make this decision. Yes I am saddened that you are leaving. I will look forward to your letters, whenever you get a chance write to us. We support you completely. You will probably tell us all about what happens through the letters. But when you come home I want to hear it with my own ears. Hear what you went through and how you felt. If I could I would have come with. But as you know with my magic it may be bad because if I had to go home...I would get called a witch and killed at the stake...and remember we can't die. Your like us, you have blood in you that makes you life a long time. So please...be careful, and if something does happen, Blueberry knows how to get to me and I will come as fast as possible, and get you out of whatever mess happens. Remember, I will always love you, as my son and little brother.
Love Forever Your Big Brother and Father,
Arthur Kirkland
I smiled reading and rereading the letter and smiled more. "I love you too Big Brother" He smiled and sat down on the bed and plopped his head in the pillow and smiled. This was going to be a lot of fun! That night after a nice dinner of delicious stew, I sat down and wrote my first note to my family
Dear Big Brother,
So far nothing really. If it this quiet i may not be able to write a lot, but more then likely i will have plenty of time to write, nothing to do makes me antsy, we all know that. I Love you all so much. Big Brother I got your letter, i will treasure it until i come home. This will be hard to be away from home so long but I will do my best. I have faith in myself. Tell everyone i said hi, and give them a hug for me.
Love from a loving Son and Little Brother,
Alfred Kirkland
I smiled giving the note to Blueberry who diapered and went to take the note to Big Brother. After Blueberry left I fell into a deep sleep. The next sixty-six days where long and hard as we crossed to The New World we where on our way to. I got to meet the most important people that would be in my life at the time. It was amazing and cool at once. Two people died on the ship and many got sick. One letter I wrote to my family held the lines (It was near the middle of the trip about 40 days or so)
Big Brother, Daddy, Matthew, another person died, and more are sick. But this letter carries bad news as well. I have grown ill as well, I thought you said i couldnt die, what if something happens? If my letters stop, remember I love you all, I couldn't ask for a better family.
The next day i had gotten a letter from my family
Alfred,
calm down, it will be fine. I searched some information. You will not die, getting sick usually happens when you have land. You remember when I got sick don't you? Well all it means is that your people are sick and dyeing and the food is going down. I have a suspicion about something. As you said previously; two people total have died, and many are sick. Tell me, is the food going down also? I wont tell you what i think just yet. But remember if you ever need help i will be here. I am only a letter away, and Blueberry can get to me quickly. We all love you dearly.
Love Forever Your Big Brother and Father,
Arthur Kirkland
I smiled softly when i got that letter and stayed in bed and Blueberry opened my window so I could get some fresh air. A few days letter i wrote home again telling them i was feeling better and that I wasnt sure if the food was going down. I didn't ask about what he thought was going on. More letters passed and it seemed we would never find land, when finally someone called out
"LAND HO!"
I ran towards the front of the ship and smiled looking seeing the green, not much longer now. I ran to my room to pack my things quickly and got ready to be able to get off the ship. I then ran back outside to watch as we got ready to unboard and to get off the ship. As I looked towards the trees i saw a woman, she felt familiar to me. But as i tried to get a better look she disappeared from my sight. When we finally got off the ship i followed the group to where the village would be, we where not the first people there. I found a home unoccupied and moved in quickly. Then i left and went to explore the woods. I was hoping to see that woman again. And ask her if i knew her.
Sorry it took so long for chapter 10, i have been busy in school with testing and inventing the school library, i hope you all enjoy this chapter, i did use some historical reference to the Mayflower, however it was not the MayFlower...it was one of the other ships, but by the time they arrive a camp and homes where already built. I hope you all enjoy this chapter! i had fun writing it. Well have a nice day now!
