No One POV:

The world spinned around Captain for a few moments as he rolled out of the crane's ruins into the Karaboudjan's cargo.

Sakharine came down the crane and into the ship with a proud smile and his cane by his side.

Captain saw it.

"Who gave you permission to board my ship?" He growled with heavy breathes at the man as he picked up a box's openner and forced himself to get up.

"I don't need it. I've never needed it." Sakharine replied calmly as he pulled out his sword and threw the sheath away.

With a little call of both determination and effort, Captain jumped off the cargo and stumbled into the ship's main deck just as Sakharine came in and they both stood infornt of eachother, ready to strike. 

Now is the time to finish it.

They started fighting, Captain stumbled forward, still confused from the fall and Sakharine used the time to slash at him but miss by the inch.

He watched him with one hand in the air, maybe to laugh at his rival's roughness and clumssiness or just a habbit of a gentleman, for Captain it didn't matter as he charged at Sakharine again and for a minute he got him, only the sword dodging him from hitting... until Sakharine stepped on his leg, making him growl and lose focus again, which Sakharine used to push the sword away and hit him in the face with his elbow.

But Captain got up and tried again, this time holding the fight a little longer until they clashed their swords close to the ground and Sakharine kicked his hand and then kicked him by the shoulder into the ground.

Captain breathed heavily from the effort as Sakharine, skilled and trained with swords fighting, walked around him a little and breathed lightly, chuckling before going for a fishing net and picking it up while Captain forced himself to get up once more.

Captain screamed as Sakharine threw the net over his head with two hands and pulled him forward before letting go and letting Captain roll on the ground while groaning in pain and hitting a smaller cargo.

Sakharine turned around and swung his sword back and forth. Captain looked up a little and found himself looking at a whiskey bottle before realizing there are a few more around him.

He ran a hand over the bottle before slowly looking at his rival with cautious.

Sakharined kept swinging his sworde back and forth before suddenly...

'SPLATZZ!'

He screamed in surprise as something hit his back and shattered into million pieces, leaving a wet feeling on his suit.

He turned around just in time to shatter another attack with his sword, and another, and another, the next attack hit his hand and made him drop his sword, leaving him with no protection against Captain's recurrent attacks and the load of whiskey bottles in his arms.

Captain threw another one and another one, knocking his rival a few steps backwards each time until he stumbled and fell backwards to a lower platform behind him, hitting it with a 'Thud'.

Captain picked the last bottle, ready to throw the last hit but froze as he watched Sakharine getting up with the scrolls in his hands and a lighter with fire under them, only Sakharine's two fingers seperating them from burning them to oblivion.

Captain took a step backwards as Sakharine got up fully.

" The legend says only a Haddock can discover the secret of the Unicorn." Sakharine said, his sickly smile shining and his eyes twinkling with joy and some hidden maddness.

"But it took a Rackham to get the job done. So you've lost again, Haddock." He finished, shaking his head.

Captain looked at the scrolls in sorrow and that look slowly drifted to the bottle in his hands, considering what he should do, as Sakharine looked at it as well and interpreted it differently.

"That's right. Why don't you have a drink? That's all you've got left, isn't it?" Captain slowly looked back at him.

"Everything that was rightfully yours is now mine. Including this ship." He added.

"Not everything!" A gasp came from Malory she swung between the men and snatched the scrolls from Sakharine's grasp with one arm while holding on to TinTin, who was holding the rope, before wraping it around his shoulders again as he landed and put the both of them down on the platform of a searching light.

They looked at eachother, breathing heavily and smiling in disbelief before looking at the men, who were staring back at them, one with a smile and as if thinking of something, and the other with disbelief and hatred.

"Thundering typhoons." Captain said, capturing Sakharine's attention and they looked at eachother again.

"Nobody takes my ship."

The punch echoed through the docks as Sakharine hit the ship's railings in the guts and the spoken screamed as he fell out and into the water.

With hands on his hips and a final thought, Captain came back and kicked the bottle on the floor, sending it spinning into the water and hitting the red man's head, who up until then tried to control his swimming before losing conciousness.

TinTin and Malory watched the scene before Malory laid her elbow on TinTin's shoulder and put her head in her hand with an impressed smile.

"See? I told you heavy bottles can always be a solution for something." TinTin, still holding the rope, turned his head to look at her as she just gave him a playful look.

Captain turned to look at them and gave them a short chuckle, which they replied to with happy smiles as Malory turned to stand staright next to TinTin.

Snowy came in and looked up at his young friends with a smile and a wagging tail, as if to ask 'So what did I miss?'

Different groans, growls and coughs came from the police's boat as Thomson and Thopmson fingally managed to pull Sakharine into the boat and he just lay there.

"We have you now, you devil." Thompson said before he and his partner stood staright.

"You are under arrest." Thomson declared.

"To be precise." He looked at his partner and switched looks with him, "You are under arrest."

And with a deep breath Sakharine raised his shaky hands and surrednered.

Malory POV:

I handed TinTin the scrolls, which he nodded in thanks for before looking forward at the sunrise.

I gave him a confused look as he straightened the scrolls and held them in front of us, so the sun was shining behind them and my eyes wided as I saw the markings at the the end of the riddles on each scroll coming together and forming numbers and letters.

"Do you see?" TinTin whispered to us as Captain and I watched from his shoulders.

"Blistering barnacles, they're coordinates." Captain whispered back.

"It took all three scrolls to form the numbers." I found myself whispering in awe as well.

"Latitude and longitude. That is it. That's the location of the treasure." Captain said and I could hear the joy from his voice and the smile forming on his face and that's all it took for me to smile too.

We all looked at eachother with smiles and chuckles and TinTin held out his hand for Captain to shake, which he replied to by pulling us into a hug.

"WE DID IT!" TinTin roared as we jumped and spinned around while Snowy barked around us.
