Chapter 2
A few years later as
the stories of Captain Blade fell into legend a small boy was born in the town
of Oasis. Oasis was a small town in the
sixth kingdom. This town was famous for
its fish and pirate legacy. The small
boy grew up learning pirate tales and lots of sailing. Soon he grew up and He and his two best
friends bought a boat. It was a small
but fast ship with plenty of cargo space.
The small boy was known as Luke and his best friends Roland and
Windhelm. Everyone called Roland Rolo but his parents of cause. Luke claimed
the Title Captain because it was his idea and Windhelm got in quick with first
mate leaving Rolo as cabin boy.
One day they had gone fishing
for the fest of fish. “Come on fishy, fishy”, said Rolo peering off the edge
with his Rod. “Captain a ship” shouted
Windhelm from the crow’s nest. Luke
looked out to sea to see a ship bearing the flag from the isles of kings. As the ship got closer the flag was hoisted down
and replaced with a pirate flag.
“PIRATES” shouted Windhelm at the top of his voice. Before he could reach the deck the pirate
ship had pulled up beside. Before Rolo
knew what was happening he was tied up beside the others. The Captain of the pirate ship walked over
and said, “AR ye just fishing’ Boys then”? “Because we only want to know where
the crystal of ice is boyos.” The boys looked at one another and in unison said
“What crystal?” The Captain turned and said “oh nothing, nothing.” He walked over
to his first mate and whispered in his ear before shouting “All right boys grab
the fish and let’s go.” The first mate walked over and knocked the boys out.
They woke up in the
cabin and cut the rope with Rolo’s knife. “We better get back to town” Luke
said. When the boys reached the town the
festival was almost ready. The boys rushed Captain Shaw’s house. “As head of Oasis boys I can tell you that
you will be raided by pirates once or twice but you will be fine” said Captain
Shaw. The boys said thanks and walked
out and wandered why he just ignored the fact of the crystal. As they walked out they bumped into Lady
Scarlet. “I heard it all” she said looking over her shoulder “come with me
quickly”. As they walked behind her she
started to speak again, “Come on you must take the crystal to Frostburg”. “Captain Blade took the crystal from the
mages and now Captain Blade has gone missing it is up for grabs that’s why the
pirates wanted it”. The boys followed
Scarlet to her wing of the Captain’s court.
There she reached into an old wooden chest by the door and withdrew
something covered in an old tattered rag.
She lifted the rag to reveal a beautiful blue and cyan crystal. “This is it” she said “Take it and run as
fast as you can you must reach the mountain in Frostburg GO”.
