Pirate

The Trip of DOOOOOOOOM

I remember it as if it was yesterday... I still have nightmares over a trip that was over a year ago. I was in my fifth hour with Mrs. Murphy's advanced English class when Mrs. Murphy told us that we would be going on an end of the year trip... well if you haven't guessed yet we were all pretty excited. The only downside was that Mrs. Murphy was making us plan it all by ourselves. The other students who were going on the trip all meet up the next day to plan our exciting adventure. The students who decided to go were made up Laura, Grace, Liz, Blake, Spencer, Fareas, Nicole, Karl, Eric, Amber, Lauren, Kyle, Courtney, Marwan and I... oh and of course Mrs. Murphy. So we were in B101 discussing where our wonderful trip would be, some people wanted England some wanted Spain others wanted California but in the end we all decided on the Caribbean, as we were looking for the perfect Cruise line Blake jumped up gasping in an animated way we all wanted to know what Blake just discovered. After he finally calmed down Blake explained he reason for causing such a commotion he showed us this Cruise Line and started going into detail. After hearing what Blake had to say our whole class seemed to be interested, we then decided to start fundraising, After 20 fundraisers or so we had enough money to head off to Florida , then we'd get onto the ship and vacation along the Caribbean for a beautiful seven day cruise.

Once we arrived in Florida the departure for the cruise wasn't for another couple hours so we headed to lunch. Once lunch was over on our walk back to the ship Spencer was hit by a car and rushed to the hospital (we later found out that he didn't make it and died). Upon the boat we all got settled unpacked and went to check out the ship. Some went to the game room, some to the pool and others to the buffet. Everyone just went crazy with excitement. Later that night we

all decided to have a powwow to begin the festivities of our class trip I could hear people staying up all night partying in the halls, but I wanted to get a good night rest because I wanted to get a full experience for the price I paid . In the morning we docked in Fiji , our class decided to wander off promising to meet back in 3 hours. I decided to go with Courtney and Laura in one direction, Grace, Liz, Blake and Karl went in another, and the rest of the students went their ways too. We all meet up when we needed too and swapped stories and ate together that was when we realized that we were close on time and had to run back to the ship. We were all huffing and puffing when we returned to the ship some even had to reach for an inhaler. We were off to the second destination (which we never reached) when we realized that Lauren was missing we couldn't find her anywhere we searched high and low and then realized she never came back on the boat. We called her on her cell phone and she just started yelling so Blake just took the phone and hung up when we asked him why he told us "If she's so mad then why do we even want her on this trip" we all decided that Blake was right she was bring the trip down so we just forgot about her and went to the night activity. That was when the tragedy struck the tragedy that is burned into my mind forever... we were in the middle of the limbo when our boat was the target to a pirate attack. We all were horror struck we started running in all different directions all we could see was a large black horrendous shadow begin to climb onto the boat Mrs. Murphy told us to go to the ballroom and wait . That was when we saw the huge figure grab Mrs. Murphy. The class could hear Mrs. Murphy scream "Run children RUN" and that's what we did we ran as far as they could to the ballroom.

Once in the ballroom I counted to see if everyone was here since I seemed to be the only one who had any control everyone was so scared and freaked out I could see them trembling and shaking I just told everyone to calm down and everything will be ok. I told everyone that we needed to make a plan to get Mrs. Murphy back and that's what we did we made a plan. After our plan was made we went to sleep and would deal with all of this in the morning. When we woke us

Headed up to the main deck to see if Mrs. Murphy was anywhere in sight. When we saw that no one was up there we decided to look around to see if there were any clues that are when we found the map. Fareas picked it up and read the map then he told us it was a treasure map and that who ever took Mrs. Murphy was heading to the Bahamas to find a buried treasure. We then went to the captain of the ship and told him we had to get to the Bahamas to save our teacher. But when the captain turned around it wasn't the captain but a PIRATE. This was when the trip pushed me over the edge first that one kid dies then we leave another on the island now our teacher was teacher napped by pirates what else could go wrong. The pirate who was our captain told us that we better keep quiet and that if we behave then we will all return safely with our teacher but if we step out of line Mrs. Murphy and the rest of us would be hanged. He then told us to go back to the ballroom and wait for further instructions. On our walk back I wondered where the rest of the people went because we were the only ones of the boat now, but I kept on walking to the ballroom with the rest of the class. When we reached the ballroom I told the class that we need to do something we can't let them get away with this but the class just didn't know what to do them all looked at me thinking I knew what I was doing it was then I realized that we were in deeper then we knew. First I went to go get us food since we haven't eaten since dinner. I made my way to the kitchen found water and snacks and brought them back. It was Grace, Liz,

Blake, Karl, Courtney, Laura, Fareas, Nicole, Amber, Courtney, Marwan, Eric and I and we were in for an adventure we just didn't know how much of an adventure we were in for. So as we sat in the ballroom planning how to get out of her and get Mrs. Murphy back we brainstormed. We thought of every idea you could think of till we finally came up with the perfect one. Our plan began when the pirates came to check on the class, we all pretended to go along with what they had to say but when they weren't looking Karl, Eric and Marwan hit the pirates upside the head with the legs of the tables. They stumbled and teetered but in the end were to strong for us. I knew that they wouldn't be beaten by the leg of the tables so Laura Courtney and I took chairs and smashed them over the pirates head. This knocked three of the four of them out. Once

They feel to the ground the fourth ran out of the room. We completed phase one of the plan but I knew that something was going to
