Adventures of Captain CC

We tie down the sails as we head directly into the eye of a storm. It's dark and everyone goes quiet as we are washed back and forth by the waves. The rain is cold and we all hope it will end soon.
We picked up a new pirate at the last port. It's Lu Lu's first time aboard a ship of this size. She and a few of the other new pirates lay flat on the deck burying their heads as they wait for Captain CC to give her orders. She tells us not to be sissy.....pirates are not afraid!
After hours of darkness the sun begins to shine and Lu Lu picks herself up off the cold damp deck.
Captain CC tells us to stay aboard the ship, it's too dangerous for inexperienced pirates like us to be swimming around in the ocean. She warns that if we don't swim fast enough the fish will suck on our toes, and it's almost impossible to get them off. Captain CC is already missing one of her littlest toes from one of her previous adventures when a large purple fish decided to make himself a meal of it.

We watch as Captain CC carefully takes to the plank and jumps. When she hits the water she swims faster than any fish I have ever seen! She must get to shore where the treasure awaits. For years we have been scouring water and land for the black fairy dust. This is the last place on the map, Captain CC is sure we will find what we're looking for here.
When she arrives at the shore she is attacked by the yellow monkeys. Everyone points to Lu Lu, it's her turn to do the swimming. She must save Captain CC. She timidly crawls to the end of the plank and finally gets the courage to jump. She hits the water and swims as fast as she can to shore. She takes on one Monkey at a time wielding her sword in all directions. Finally the monkeys retreat back into the forest. Captain CC takes to the trees where she finds the black fairy dust. The pirates still aboard the ship holler for joy.

They pack the fairy dust safely in their packs and set off into the water. It will be harder to swim fast enough while carrying such a load.
When they climb aboard the ship they are not surprised to find a few fishes have attached themselves to their toes. The crew members are quick to pull every last fish off before they can do too much damage. This is not an easy task and must be done carefully so as not to remove any toes. Carefully but quickly all fish are removed and thrown back into the ocean. the crew watches as Captain CC and Lu Lu empty their packs of fairy dust.

Finally the black fairy dust was theirs. An adventure accomplished with almost all toes in-tacked......
