Luz pov.

We had journeyed out to sea for about an hour, we finally saw the volcano Morton spoke of.

"There it is lads the volcano!" I yelled out to my crew.

"Which volcano is it?" Minty asked.

"Well it's uh.....obviously it's one of the uh......y'know I don't know......" I said scratching my head.

"Mhm...your powers of navigation amazes me captain..." Minty replied.

"Ya well I got us here!....now shall we?" I asked.

"Yes Captain." Minty said before running down the stairs and began yelling to the crew.

~Jeez she can give orders...~ I thought.

We began to circle the volcano to find one of the kings ships. On the side of the vessel read "The Silver Blade."

"AHA, OL MORT YOU NEVER LET ME DOWN!" I yelled.

"OK EVERYONE LETS GET STARTED!" I called out but I didn't get a response.

I peeked over the railing to see everyone arguing with Matt.

"All I'm saying is that it's unfair you all have pirate names and I don't! I mean I do all the work!" Matt said.

"WHAT!? YOU BARLEY DO ANYTHING!" Minty yelled in response.

"OH WHAT ABOUT THE TIME I SAVED YOUR LIFE!?" Matt yelled.

"YOU KICKED, A CHICKEN!" Minty yelled.

"Uh fellas..." I said.

"THAT CHICKEN WAS MEAN AND BIG!" Matt yelled.

"OH SHUT IT BOY!" Minty yelled.

"Fellas..." I said.

"*Gasp* BOY!? IAM A MAN!" Matt yelled.

"Oh ya? Then why do I always find you playing with those dolls in your room?" Minty asked.

"THERE ACTION FIGURES AND ALL I DO IS SET THEM UP!" Matt yelled.

"Uh huh sure..." Minty said.

Matt inhaled to yell a comeback but I interrupted.

"FEEELLLLAAAAASS!" I yelled loud as I could.

Everyone jumped and buttoned their lips at once. They all looked at me with a frightened face.

"Uh...Y-Yes captain?" Matt asked.

"SHIP...OVER....THERE!" I yelled.

"Uh...R-RIGHT! EVERYONE GET MOVING!" Minty called out.

Everyone ran in all directions and began to prepare for battle.

"That's more like it." I said to myself.

We came to the side of the ship and began to fire upon the ship. The crew aboard the Silver Blade must have heard of us, because I saw one look upon our flag then quiver and jumped over board. I laughed at the sight and made my way aboard. By the time I wounded a man's leg everyone was taken out. I walked to the main cabin door with pride of our speedy success.

"Hehe I think we're getting good at this!" I said.

I kicked in the door and entered to find a man with brown hair and sideburns.

"Ah hello mate how ya been?" I asked.

"Do not talk to me so casually pirate!" The man said.

"Huh well you certainly have more balls then the last guy eh lads?" I said.
