“Help! HELP! That boy has stolen my purse!” You scream. Then, around the corner runs the handsome Captain Christopher Highmore of the Royal Navy. “He went that way!” You shout, pointing after the boy. Captain Highmore vanishes into the gloom of the alley, only to reemerge with your purse.
“I didn’t catch the thief, but he dropped this while he was running,” Captain Highmore explains as he hands you back your purse.
You thank Captain Highmore and he escorts you to your carriage. “It would be best for you to go straight home Miss Beech,” he says as he hands you in. “The Pirate Captain James Whitlock was spotted in town today.”
“Pirates! How exciting,” you say.
“We don’t know why he’s in town, but usually pirates only come to the city when they have a score to settle. But fear not, the Royal Navy will catch him.” Captain Highmore says as he shuts the door. However, once you’re inside, you realize that it’s not your carriage at all! It starts to roll down the street, and in the darkness inside the carriage, you can just make out a figure holding a gun at you!
“Who are you? Where are you taking me?”
“That’s none of your concern. We’re just taking what’s ours,” the man answers.
“But why are you taking me?”
“Because your father owes Captain Whitlock.”
You’re being kidnapped by pirates!
