The Adventures Of Dew, Storm And Star 7#

Dew crouched in the grass, her gaze fixed on a robin. She leapt but, she accidentally pushed off on a patch of dry leaves and the red-chested bird quickly flitted away. Dew hissed in frustration underneath her breath.

Dew looked around for some more prey. She sniffed the air for what seemed like forever until she finally caught the strong scent of vole. She swiveled her ears, trying to pinpoint where the vole was. She heard a flurry of scratching that sounded like the vole's claws on stone. Then silence. Dew thought that she should look for it over by the stone pile over to her right, although, she was doubtful that she would find it. The frantic sound of the claws told her that the vole had probably gotten frightened and hid.

Dew crept over to the rocks and looked around. A small black thing on the largest stone caught her attention. She opened her jaws to scent the air the air. The powerful smell of mouse hit the back of her mouth. She leapt high up into the air. Her paws landed directly on top of the mouse. Then Dew swiftly bit the back of its neck. She sighed. Finally, a successful kill. She picked up her catch and walked over to the small cave that Jinx now lived in. She came into the cave with the mouse in her mouth.

"Hello, Jinx! How are you today?" meowed Dew, trying to sound cheerful.

"I'm good. How are you?" Jinx croaked meekly.

"I'm great! I brought a mouse for you to eat," Dew said as she shoved the mouse into Jinx's face.

"I'm not hungry," Jinx muttered.

"Come on, eat. Please?" Dew pleaded desperately.

"Alright," Jinx sighed.

Jinx took a bite of the mouse. Then, realizing how ravenous she was, Jinx scarfed down the rest. Dew quietly purred with amusement as she watched.

Storm trotted into the cave with Cocoa, Chip and Star trailing behind him.

Storm looked at Jinx and purred happily, "You have visitors!"

"Hi, Jinx," Chip said politely.

"Hello," Jinx meowed.

Everyone greeted Jinx in the same way. The Cocoa announced, with a hint of laughter in her voice, "I brought enough prey for every cat here to stuff his or herself silly!"

The cats erupted into cheers. Then, they all ate their fill.

******

Dew slept, cuddled up with all of the cats that she knew. She was grateful for them all. They are her loved ones, her friends. They are her family.

Famous Pirates

Blackbeard, also Edward Teach:

Blackbeard is one of the most well-known pirates, and one of the most terrifying, at that. When he was about to pillage a ship, Blackbeard would light fuses in is large black beard to strike fear into the hearts of the crewmen abroad the fellow ship. He strapped pistols to himself as that he would be able to quickly kill. Many people that saw him thought that he was the devil!

Blackbeard was killed on November 22, 1718 in a fight with the Royal Navy of Britton. It took five gunshots and more then twenty sward cuts to kill him!

Calico Jack, also John Rackham:

Calico Jack was known by this name for the calico coats that he would ware. He has mostly been remembered by his work with two famous female pirates, Anne Bonny and Mary Read, and was only moderately successful in his life as a pirate.

Calico Jack was caught by the British Navy. It was much for the Navy easier then it normally would have normally been. Calico Jack's crew was drunk, so the fight was lost quickly. On November 16, 1720, Jack was sentenced to being hung. This was carried out the next day.

Mary Read:

Mary Read was a tomboy girl who dressed and acted like a man. She ran away at 13 to sail away abroad a ship. A few years later, she enlisted in the army. It was then that she fell in love with a fellow soldier. Mary Read was wedded to him, began to dress like women did, and opened a hotel with her husband. Later, when her husband died, she went back to sea. Calico Jack then captured her ship and she befriended him and Anne Bonny. She became a pirate along with her two friends.

Many Read was captured with Calico Jack and Anne Bonny by the British Navy. She and Anne escaped being hung due to their possibly feigned pregnancy. They were both imprisoned instead. Mary died, still in prison, not long after this from sickness.

Anne Bonny:

Anne Bonny was a courageous, independent and headstrong woman. Like Mary Read, Anne Bonny married a young soldier by the name of James Bonny. She was stolen from her husband by Calico Jack, resulting to her unlikely friendship with him. She, Mary Read and Calico Jack. Anne Bonny disguised herself as a man and joined Jack in a life of piracy.

Later, as described above, the three of them were captured, and she and Marry said that they were pregnant (which was possibly untrue), and their hanging was postponed and they were put in prison until they gave birth. Anne Bonny mysteriously disappeared and was never seen or heard from again.
