Because the ship was loaded, it started to sink half way across
the Atlantic Ocean and a family of four was already half halfway
under water. Neither the captain Bob nor one of his sailors Scott
knew what to do. Opaah, the youngest boy was so scared that he
was jumping up and down and then heather, his sister started
yelling to mom and dad. It all started such a big commotion that
the captain turned around. Well, as fast as he could because
the ship sunk more and more each minute that he sailed. Mean while, while he was sailing Scott took a piece of gum
out of mouth and stuffed it in the little hole where the water
had been coming in. After that, he tried to scoop as much of
that ice-cold water with his bare hands into the toilet to flush
down. Then all of the water would go back to where it came from,
outside in the ocean. Yet that was still the least of their problems.
Suddenly, the gum popped out of the hole and again the ship
started sinking, but luckily we were about three minutes away
from shore. Right when the boat got to shore and all of the people
were off the boat, the hole grew larger and larger and the boat
gave away and broke into a million pieces. Now, the sailors had
to walk to a boat shop and trade something of theirs for a boat,
besides their money. He couldnít use his money because
he wanted to use it to buy an actual house because right now
he lives in a little hut. He walked up to the store manager who
offered him some free gum, but Scott the sailor, just ignored
the gum and asked for a boat. To solve this problem all Scott had to do was ask for two
ships instead of three. He set back out to sea, but never did
he take more people then he could fit on the boat or ship that
he was sailing again. |
