Chapter 9: A Happy Ending.

A man with a long, white beard approached us. Everyone stood there, silently. Finally, he spoke.
"Who are you?" asked the man.
"We were stranded on this island after an incident with our cruise boat" answered my mother.
The man though for a moment. Finally he said, "I can not fit all of you onto my ship but I can take you in groups. Will you accept this offer?" asked the man.
Although this man was a stranger and usually my mom says don't talk to strangers and everything but we were all desperate so I accepted the offer on behalf of the group. Everyone gasped and started arguing so the man stepped in. "I am Captain Jameson McHearty. If you all don't trust me, which is fair, I will just be on my way. These waters are barely sailed, so good luck finding another rescuer within the next two years!" The Captain said. He was walking to his boat when some kid gulped and said. "Two years!?".
Captain Jameson nodded and my mom grabbed my arm and my sisters and led us toward the ship. We sailed to a nearby town's dock and the Captain said we were on our own to find transportation now. He left to go get some more of the group and me and my family headed toward the police station.

A Month Later...


Well I'm home now, and feeling a lot better. We bought a small house by the beach and we're settled in now. We never did find the guy who ran away with our boat, but my mom's okay with that. Well gotta go now! Don't wanna end with a cheesy ending but...

The End!!
