Tim woke up at night again because he heard someone's footsteps on the floor above him. There were a few small gaps between the wooden planks so he tried to peak through them but only saw the person's feet going towards the deck. So he went outside towards the deck and saw that the person walking was John! He went towards the same men including Henry like he did before. Tim hid in the apple barrel again. Then he heard John's voice shouting "Tim knows about our secret! Then he told the captain! Why didn't any of you spot him?!" "How did you figure this out?" asked Henry. "I was talking to Tim, then the captain called him. I wanted to know what he had to say to Tim. But that boy told the captain about our previous conversation! Wait, what was that?" said John and went to crate of medicine. He saw nothing and left "We'll get them later" thought John. "Anyway, But Tim said he trusted me so we should still be alert in case they try to kill us" said John. "How did he hear us?" said Tim quietly. "Who said that" said John. Tim quietly got out of the barrel and ran to his room. John saw him but decided to not go yet. While Tim was going to his room, he saw Jack and Sam knocking on his door. "Tim!" said Jack when he saw Tim "You're here!" "Let us in your room please" said Sam. Tim did as they said and let them in his room. "Why were you in front of my door?" asked Tim. "You're the only person we trust on this ship. If you hadn't let us in, John would've killed us" replied Jack. "Wait, why do you trust me and why would John kill you?" asked Tim curiously. "Because he knows we heard him" replied Sam "Yesterday, we saw you going somewhere and were curious so we followed you. We saw you hide in the apple barrel but we hid behind the crates of medicines and left when you did. We did the same today but we left early, that's why John was going to the crates of medicines". "So that's why John went there" said Tim. "Anyway" said Jack "If you want to talk with us again, come to our room". "Alright" said Tim. Tim, Sam and Jack Sam and jack left and Tim went to sleep. But he wasn't alone, he had a visitor.....

Tim woke up at midnight and saw that he was tied up in a chair and John was standing in front of him.

"Well,well, well. Here's the boy who saw my secrets and even told the captain. Whereis the map Tim?!" said John. "Why should I tell you?!" said Tim. "Because thereare two options. The first is to give me the map and the second is to..........die"said John. Tim didn't know what to do but said "Do you actually think you'rebrave?!" "Of course" replied John. "Then fight me" said Tim and then instantlyregretted it. "Alright, if you insist" said John and untied the ropes. Tim wasscared but also thought that it was the right thing to do and said "If you win,you get the map. If I win, I get the map and you leave this ship forever"."Alright" said John and gave Tim a weapon. "We fight on three" said John"One......Two.........Three!" They fought, John swung his sword and Tim swung his. Johnsaid "Give me the map or I'll kill you just like my grandfather killed yours.Tim was shocked and stopped. "What do you mean?" he asked. I'm the grandson ofthe person who killed your grandfather!" said John. "Then why are you doingthis?" asked Tim. "I am completing my grandfather's work!" said John. Then Johnused his sword and hit Tim's sword so hard that Tim's sword slipped out ofTim's hands. Tim fell on the ground and John looked at him. "Well, look at whatwe have here" said John placing his swords an inch away from Tim's face.

"Any last words?" asked John. "Yes actually" said Tim "Now!" Suddenly Sam and Jack came through the door with guns in their hands. "Get away from him" demanded Sam. John did as he said. "Drop your weapon" demanded Jack. John dropped his sword. "Now put your hands on your head" said Sam. John did as they told him.

Suddenly, the captain came through the door andsaw everything. "John!" shouted the captain "I trusted you, Tim trusted you andthis is what you do in return?!" The entire crew had been awake and werelooking at John. "Take him!" said Captain. A few men took John to the deckwhere the captain can watch him.
