Shiprecked! An Add-on Story!

Yeah, I know another add-on story. But I just had a GREAT idea and I can't let this one go!

Here's the plot!

The year is 1859, and the ship called "The Flora" is about to sail. The crew travels for four months across the sea, hoping to reach London alive. Once they are in London, they have two days worht of Shore leave. Once that is over, the crew get's ready to sail to Sydney. They have a dellay, do to loosing their Capiatain. Another Captian is assigned. His real name is John Merrick. He's posing as Liutenant Warrlow. He brings five new people aboard, to help when in pirate terretory. The ship ends up sinking, and the crew is seperated. You can get washed up on an Island or get captured by pirates, or even by the bad guys on the boat. But eventually, the good guys get reunited, and we try to keep this bundel of treasure from Merrick.

Here's my first post:


Hakon walked out into the morning sea air. He breathed it in. It was his sixth year as a sailor, even though he was still ships boy. Jenz, his best friend so far, had been on the boat for ten years. Still, Hakon longed for his home in Norway. He had sent letters, but he got no replies. It was probly because he was moving all the time.
"Hakon! Captian wants you bellow."
"Eye eye sir!" Hakon walked bellow, and into the Captains cabin.
"Hakon Hakonsen sir." The Captian turned and said,
"You've been with us six years Hakon. You haven't complained about anything. I think it's time, you become my first mate."
"With all do respect sir, I'm happy as a ships boy. Besides, I couldn't take Jenz place."
"Very well. Then let me give you this." the Captain pulled out a picture of himself, and Hakons father.
"Keep this. So you can remember him on the long journey ahead of us."
"Yes sir, thank you sir." Hakon left, and put the picture on his bed. He then went back up, and awaited orders.


Sara ducked behind a barrel when she heard footsteps. It was Hakon, the ships boy. He walked down the hall, and out the door. She stood, and ran into the kitchen. She got some bread, cheese, milk and two bowls. She ran back down into the cargo hold.
"Here Mary. I got bread, milk and cheese."
"What fer?"
"Fer lunch. What else?"
"Sara, I told you to stop getten' inta the kitchen!"
"Sorry, but I was huingry and I thought ya might be." Sara ate, while Mary kept watch. Suddenly a nouse startled her.
"Sara, keep low." she commanded. May ducked behind a barrel, until she saw the person pass. Mary accedentally dropped a pully.
"Who's down here?" a voice asked. The person walked by again, and this time, Mary jumped him. He had a knife, so she was carefull. She pulled him to the ground, and tried to keep the knife away from her. He pulled off the hat she was wearing, reaveling her currly hair.
"Look, relax! I'm not gonna hurt you."
"You're a girl."
"Well, you've seen one before haven't you?" she asked, helping him up.
"I'm Hakon." he said.
"I'm Marry. Now, please don't say anything about me bein' down here."
"I'll keep quiet."
"Thank you." Marry ran back into the shadows.

I must be out of my mind! Hakon thought to himself. I could get forty lashes if they find out I didn't report her!

Oh yeah, all my characters are good to. Here's another character of mine:

NAME: Jenz McKenzie
AGE: 24
GENDER: Male
DESCRIPTION: Slightly long, blonde hair, green eyes, light skin
PHYS. APP.: Cream colored shirt, black leather shorts, bandana tied around his forhead, sandals
RANK: First Mate
HISTORY: Jenz has been on the Flora for 11 years. He swore to Hakon's father that he would protect him. And he has. Jenz was born in Australia, and was sent to be a sailor to honor his father. He's been one ever since.


Hakon walked back on deck, and went about his chores. Jenz was working on keeping the main sail straight, and strong. Hakon watched Jenz swong down on a rope, from the top of the ship.
"For the six years I've been on this ship, I still can't do that." Hakon said.
"Well, you want someone to teach you?"
"Would you teach me?" Hakon asked hopefully.
"Don't ask me. Go ask Alex. He's the one who gave me all the tips."

"Mary, do you have any dreams?" Sara asked.
"What kind of dreams?"
"Dreams like what you'll do with your life. Or what you'd like to happen."
"Well, everyone has dreams Sara. Mine are basic."
"Like what?" Sara asked eagerly.
"I just wish I could have a family."
"I find myself wishing that to."
Suddenly, a noise interupted them. Sara went into the shadows, while Mary waited for someone to walk by. When no one did, Mary walked out from behind the barrell, and looked around.
SUddenly, someone jumped her from behind.
