Another pirate dives into the water, swims over, climbs on our ship with a knife in his mouth and a sword on his side. Suddenley, A whole multitude of pirates sworm our ship, we got out our best weapons I had always wanted to use my sword! I exclaimed. No. said my father. Fighting is for us, you go hide. But father. Now! he yelled. I  went to the gun cabinet to hide. Then, I saw them trowing our crew off of our ship, I grab a gun. I was unseen, so it made them easier to shoot. You know, just enough to knock 'em off our ship. After the battle was over, they took 200 of our men, we were left with only Roy, myself, and my father. Who was  shooting at them? said father. I tip toed to the food cabnet, so it was not so plain that it was me.  Natasha. said father. You better still be hiding! I rushed out of the cabinet and said, Father, why must I hide my face at the time of war? I am 16 now, old enough to see what you see. I said angrily. Because, said father. You are a lady, and you should not have snuck on here so your mother could have shown you how to act as one! So you could have abandoned me so you could become a pirate? I then stormed off to my tent.

We best find a new crew sir, we can't run it with but 2 men and a women. said Roy. You are right, we best go to find the nearest pirate hiding spot for pirates and ask around to see if they be willing to become part of my crew. said father.

I was very displeased by hearing Roy say but 2 men and a women, I am as capable to be a crew member as anyone else! I fought in all the wars with him ever since I found the gun cabnet without his knowing anyway! I said. I am going to go into the carribean, find a disguise, and be a part of his crew, he is to greedy to notice my absence anyway! I said to myself.

I climbed off the ship with a sword, gun, and enough food to last me 4 days worth travel. I am ready! I said to myself quietly. I headed out with a single dabloon because father was WAY to selfish to pay me but a dabloon. It was enogh to buy a bandanna and a new outfit. I looked completely different, my only concern was if he would allow a women to his crew.
