Ok . This is the 3rd chapter. This is where Zed gets his map and weaponry for said journey. I will also introduce A new character . 


Captain Jolly Roger : Captain Roger is  not too different from Zed in the sense that he is a pirate , he is cunning, he is an excellent swordsman. His sword case did not have a bottom and had an extra long sword . So it always dragged on the floor where ever it walked. He had a one eye but was an execellent marksman none the less . He wore an eye patch and had his own crew . 


Zed - " Captain's log. December 7th ,1956 . Thursday . I seemed to have found me a new crew and ship. But I have also seemed to be found by * Gulp * Amy . Its more of a bitter sweet moment ." Zed is now sailing from the shores of Scotland in a Southeasterly direction to the Isle of Azores . Mathew - " Captain . I have found you  a captain's hat . " Zed - Thats nice . But why is there a skull in it ? Meh . Probably not important " When Zed put the hat on his head a sudden mist appeared over the entire ship.  Whispers of death and howls of pain could be heard be its inhabitants . When the mist cleared the sail started to change colour from red to burgandy . And the words " The Unlucky Charm appeared on the main sail. Zed - " I think I know why there was a skull in the captains hat . He was beheaded by someone. But I have no clue as to why . " When Zed turned around he saw a vision of the former captain having a sword fight . The captain in the vision tripped over some rope and his blade fell upon his neck slicing it clean off . Zed - " I could have gone my entire life without seeing that . I hope you all saw it because I know I did not drink this morning . " Amy - " Zed . You don't think this is a cursed ship do you ? " Zed - As a matter of fact I do . You should probably get a life boat and go on back to Scotland ? Amy - " Its going to take more than that to get rid of me Zed . " Zed - I was afraid you'd say that . Alright listen up you scallywags. It appears that this here be a cursed ship . But don't worry. If you die ... I'll be sure you have a proper funeral .  They ship now echoed with laughter as their spirits started to rise again . Zed ordered them to continue sailing and to get him some rum .



Chapter 3 is not finished as yet but I do not want to bundle it all up like I did in one and two . So I am going to post the rst after I hear the comments .




 

Well I didn't read chapter 1 or 2 but I did read chapter 3 . Not a bad little short story for a pirate adventure (by far the best pirate adventure I've ever read) it held my attention and you have a very active imagination to thing this up. 

Divine Aurora : Thank you . Chapter one and two are very long so read that when you have time . I always try to write it when listening to Pirates of the Caribbean soundtracks or trailers . The rest of chapter 3 is coming out soon

Mr. Zed : This is a very interesting story! I did not read the first two chapters though. I can tell you put a lot-o-work into this though. Keep up the good work. I will read beginning to end of the whole story later on!

I haven't read Ch. 1 or 2 yet either, but this is really good and I'll check the others out tomorrow. Gonna finish my day playing Tecmo Bowl. Can't wait to read the rest of the story though.

        Zed - " Captain's log. December 8th, 1956. And the day is um......  Hey Amy do you know what day it is !!! ? " Amy - " Its Friday Zed and you don't have to yell . We are in the same bed "  Zed - " What the ? What are you doing in my bed ?  We didn't ? Did we ? We did ? Didn't we ? " Amy - No we didn't . I just thought that a lady needs a place to sleep . " Zed - " This is my ship and there fore this is my bed. So don't go on it unless I say so . " Amy - " Whatever ".   Zed -  " You can't just whatever me. I am your captain   . I can make you jump ship if I want . "  Amy - " And what happens when I find you again ? " . Zed - " Point taken " .





Zed is currently currently sailing to the island of Azores where he looks to find a map and an old aquantance . Zed - " Mathew where are we ? " . Matthew - " Well we don't really have a map and I think this part of the ocean does not have a name ."   Zed - " It doesn't ? Well we need to be somewhere and I cannot say we are somewhere if this " where " doesn't have a name . "    Luke -  " Can I name it ? I am good at naming things " .    Zed -  " Go ahead ."  Luke - " It has clear waters and looks pretty lively. I'll name it ....... Viva de Agua " . Zed -  " Nice name  . Ok now tell me Matt . Where are we ? " Matt - " We are currently sailing threw Viva de Agua  Captn.  Zed - " Ok we now know here we are."




The ship has now left Viva de Agua and has arrived at Azores. Zed approaches   a hut that looks very old and run down. The inhabitants of the hut was no one more than an old local Island Hermit . Hermit - " Can I help you with anything ?"  . Zed - " Yes. I need a map . Do you have any ? "  Hermit - " That depends . What type of map do you want ? "      Zed - "  I want a map showing me the location to the whereabouts of the Lockness Monster . " Hermit - " I happen to have one in stock . But be warned . The only reason I have it with me now is because anytime someone takes it , it float back to me on a piece of driftwood with a skull attached to it . "   Zed - " That sounds like it could be a dangerous even fatal task . Give me the map . "  Zed pays the hermit his due and moves on . Just upon leaving the shabby hut Zed hears the sound of a sword being dragged in the sand . The owner was of course Captain Roger .  Zed - " Well well well if it isn't captain Roger " Roger - " ZED !!!! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU !!!!!! "  Zed - " Nice to see you too Roger " . Roger - " You left me in prison to rot !!! "  Zed - "  And I regreted every minute of that .  Roger - " I LOST AN EYE BECAUSE OF YOU ** "  Zed - " Well um.... sorry .. about ..... that. But I need your help right now "    Roger - The only reason you are still alive is because there are too many witnesses . What could ya possible want my help far ? " Zed - Well I am on a voyage to kill the Lockonster and am in need of some weaponry . Do you have anything? "  Roger leads Zed to a chamber disguised as a brick wall. Within the chamber was laid guns , swords , canon , harpoons and other forms of weaponry . Zed - " I'll have one of these. And three of those . Oh I just have to get this one. That one over there looks simply unique . . Roger - " It'll cost ya . " Zed threw a sack filled with gold pieces in the hand of Roger . Zed - " You'll get the rest at this location * Points on the bog of the beast on the map . Deliver it there .  .Roger - " Just make sure that you have the loot or I'll have you blood . 




 Zed now has a map , and weaponry. All e needs now is to find and conquer the beast .  

sparkadas : Thanks . You constructive critisism is appreciated but I am not smart enough to do those things . Plus I have to write alot of stuff and try to avoid doing excess work .  But I guess the Dialougues could be better .  Thanks again

sparkadas : It is my thread so I am going to see if you reply whether you did it to the thread or post There are other chapters but if you did not like the quality of this one then you shouldn't  read them

Mr. Zed : Very imaginative! The only improvement I can think of is to start new paragraphs when you switch speakers, and add tags such as 'Zed said, "Such and such."' This is a lot easier to understand than 'Zed- "Such and such."' I believe you addressed the issue earlier by saying it's a captain's log, but captains do add tags to the speech- if not their own, everyone else's. 

Other than that, though, keep up the good work!
