As my crew piled onto our vessle, it began to rain heavily. The storm I’d heard about over the radio was rolling in. “Hope we can make it to port,’” my best friend Jack said. My crew and I were traveling from Spain to the United States, a quit long journey. As we pulled out of harbor, I looked back at the land we were leaving. I wondered to myself if we’d ever see it again.
The strom was worse than I had anticipated. Days passed and still the storm prevailed. On the twelfth day, we began to run out of food. To save my crew some energie, I made them take turns sleeping in thier bunks, instead of everyone on the main deck,working at once. And to save food, everyone was only allowed to eat once a day, instead of two, and they were only allowed to eat two pieces of bread, instead of the original four. I once caught one of my youngest crew members eating more than his share, and to be fair to the rest of the crew, I had to make him walk the plank. After he jumped into the dark, murky water, I saw some strangely large sharks who slowly circled the punished crew member, then suddenly they pulled him under. We never saw him again.
After the shark incident, I started to notice other weird things about where we were sailing. Strange bubbles surfaced ocassionally
