               The Pirates Storm the Deck!

Exhausted, Zack closed his eyes as the plane began
its descent into Logan International Airport in Boston.
He immediately fell into a deep sleep. Without warning,

the pirates stormed the deck of the pirate ship,

swords flailing in every direction. The sounds of sword

on sword, clanging and scraping, made him toss and
turn fitfully in his undersized seat on the plane. He

squirmed in his sleep to get comfortable.

Bright red blood ran in rivulets over the edge of the wooden deck and collided with the salty sea, bathing the planks in a pink whitewash.

That made Zack’s stomach turn, and he felt as if he were going to puke!
 

Perched high on the mast, Zack looked down on the

chaos below. Zack froze in place. He struck a pose that contorted his body as he clutched the smooth wooden
mast for dear life. One false move, and the pirates
would look up. One false move, and he knew he would  

be dead! Clinging to life, he watched the scene unfold

below him. And then, he made that fatal mistake, that

couldn't hold on any longer. His arms were like rubber and so
numb that he could no longer feel them. He clung to the

to his neck, and covered in blood himself, looked up

directly into Zack’s stunned face. A black stained patch
covered the pirate’s left eye, but that didn’t seem to
impair his vision. Zack noticed that the pirate’s beard,

which was a dull brown with copper streaks, was dripping

with food, and had something crawling in and out

of its tangled mass. His beard seemed to move up and

down all by itself. That made Zack wince.  

Worse than that, the pirate’s sword seemed to be dripping

bright red blood. It was the thickest and longest
 blade he had ever seen. He hoped he wouldn’t be the
pirate’s next victim. He couldn’t tell much more from the top of the mast, but it looked as if the pirate had used .....
