Victor found himself on his four-poster bed, gasping for air. Canon Balls destroyed the ship around him. He was back in time...again. "I need to take them with me...but how?" If somehow by magic, he found the Ecuadorian Jewel and his ring in his pocket. And what was more, his pebble and telescope were clenched in his hand. "Vincent!" He yelled and staggered up towards the door, throwing it open and yelling at the top of his lungs. "Crew! Get here right now." Five men and a women came marching towards him in surprise.
"Sir...you look awful." Spoke Katia.
"I've seen your deaths. I'm Victor from the future. I presume this present Victor has been cancelled out."
"WHAT?!" Barked Longhurst. "Impossible. Time is a mysterious thing. No human can mess with it."

It happened suddenly. Almost as if it were a dream. Victor gazed around in the brief seconds he had. It was a blinding light. Bright white. Then suddenly they were on Puerto's ship as if time had collapsed in on itself. Puerto blinked, trying not to fall in utter disbelief. The crew groaned as Victor stood up.
