     “AAAAHHHHRRRR, me latté. My 

name is Black Beard and I have a 

brother, his name is captain Lawrence 

Prince. We were the most successful 

pirates to conquer the sea. We went from 

rags to riches. My brother and I bathed in 

gold. We were the most successful 

pirates to roam the sea. We had top 

notch vessels loaded with the best 

cannons money can buy. No one could 

take us down. We got loot after loot by 

sinking and destroying ships. One day a 

conflict was caused upon us.    That has torn us 

apart to this day. I had to take a risk that would 

ruin our fellowship forever. But the risk made me end 

up taking the wrong path to failure.”

“Oh yeah, my brother, that’s a different story. We used 

to be good friends until he tried to take the biggest 

score we would have ever had away from me. But his 

cockiness bit him in the dairy-air, and I ended up 

getting the loot. Tons of it!   There were gold rings, cups, 

necklaces, gold coins and a crown. That is why today, I 

have the enormous vessel and he is cleaning the deck 

with his crew and not a captain.”

“ And this is how it went.” Said both brothers.

    “It all started out one day when Black Beard had some 

information on the treasure that belonged to the “Pirates of 

Dark Waters”. The Pirates of Dark Waters were the richest 

pirates to ever exist. Some say they controlled the sea. One 

day their fleet was under attack and they hid their loot on an 

island. This is an island that no one has found to this day: it 

moved. And we had the map that gave us instructions to 

pinpoint the island’s exact movement”.

    “Are you sure Black Beard?” 

    “Yes, let us go get the treasure together. We would be the 

most famous pirates to ever exist in our day and age, the ones 

who found the treasure of the Pirates of Dark Waters” said 

Black Beard.

    It was an early morning, bright and windy, perfect for 

sailing. The two brothers gathered their crew and were waiting 

to take off. They had their cannons, sails, and everything else 

needed to take off. 

   “Don’t forget thee treasure map” said Captain Lawrence 

prince.

   “Arrrrrrhhhhh it’s right here.   Take it I want you to navigate”

But what captain Lawrence didn’t know is that his brother had 

made a copy of the map. So, they took off with great force 

and record speeds.

      Their ships were sailing well and 3 days passed with no 

issues, until one day. One night Black Beard had a 

conversation with his second in command named Jack.

“Are we going to let them have half the treasure Black Beard ” 

said jack.

    “Oh heavens no, here is the plan. At the right time we will 

begin to fire our cannons at their ship, causing them huge 

damage to their ship. Then I will use the copy of our map to 

guide us to the treasure.”

     “Oooo that sounds like good plan.   I’ll tell the rest of the 

crew” said Jack.

         The next day was another perfect day. Great winds and sunshine, 

again prefect for sailing.

    “Where do we go next” yelled Black Beard.

    “The map says before for you reach your desire and riches you must 

get past the beast that rules the dark depths of the ocean, and then 

will you be able to find the island where the hidden treasure is stowed 

away.”  

The water began to shake as well as the ships. No one knew what was 

about to happen. 

    “What do we have here” said Black Beard.

    “Must be an earthquake” said Captain Lawrence Prince.

    Then a huge tentacle from what could only be a kraken arose from 

the dark parts of the water soaring above the brothers vessels. 

    “ It’s a kraken yelled” Captain Lawrence Prince.

    “ Gather the ammo! Get ready to fire the cannons.”

The enormous tentacle came down with violent force and hit the 

water. Then the head arose from the water with tentacles surrounding 

the two ships.
