I threw the Pirate captive - Half-Face Franky - roughly into the room. He was still a little dazed from when the captain had punched him.

As Light-Man-Eos held onto him, I unlocked the brigs cage door.

"Alright," I said to Light-Man-Eos, "throw him in!"

The Pirate scum was thrown into the cage. I locked the door and left Light-Man-Eos to watch over him. I told Light-Man-Eos that Sleepy I would arrive soon with his prisoner and I then left the room.

i take gregor my prisoner and throw him into the brig
"i should throw away the key you no gregor"
i turn and gosh!

Light-Man-Eos is unconscious. He has been knocked out. i pick him up and lay him across 4 chairs.

I step forward from where I had been standing unnoticed and walk towards Sleepy I.

"Mr I," I said, "it's me, your first officer. What seeems to be the problem here?"

Behind my back I held a candle stick from the recreation lounge. Sleepy turned to face me and told me that Light-Man-Eos was unconscious.

"Yes..." I said, "I already know that..."

I swung the candle stick at Sleepy's head, kncoking him to the ground. He didn't pas out straight away so I hit him again. The Pirate in the cell looked at me confused.

"My name is Jimmy O'Malley and I want off this ship," I said to Gregor, "I can get you out of here and back on the Valtriani, if you will agree to drop me off at the next port. Do we have a deal?"

I stared at Jimmy. A traitor onboard Captain Warners ship? This I had never have imagined.

"Very well," I said. Jimmy began to unlock the cage door. "You will get me safely off this ship and back to the Valtriani and then, when our mission here is complete, I will personnaly take you to the nearest port."

Jimmy asked about the other Pirate in the brig - Half-Face Franky.

"Leave him," I snarled, "his disgusting face makes me sick anyway!"

I opened the cage door and Greogr stepped out. I had a pistol in my trousers just in case he was trying to desieve me.

"This way then," I said and together we left the brig and the Kingston.

I felt no regrets in betraying the crew... I only wished that I had found a way off this damn ship sooner.

I entered the brig to find Sleepy I and Light-Man-Eos unconscious on the floor and Gregor missing!
He must have escaped!

I woke Sleepy I and Light-Man-Eos and asked them both what had happened. When they told me I could not beleive it... Jimmy O'Malley, our first mate - has betrayed us all!

(continued from Galley)

Kruger was still unconscious. We brought him into the brig and threw him into the cell next to his pirate friend Half-Face Franky.

Max Decker and several other crew members had joined us in the brig. It seemed that everyone wanted to know why Kruger attacked us and what this lost map was. I didn't mind them being here. They had every right to know what was going on.

I threw a bucket of wate rover the pirate to wake him up. I then stared at him.

"What the hell were you doing on our ship and what is this Lost Map you talk of?" I growled, "Speak now Pirate and we might not throw you to the sharks!"

In pain from the good wacking I got, I tried to look calm. Now I had a demented guy throwing water at me and firing questions. I now know how my prisoners feel, accept Captain Warner doesn't look the type to tourture, he's to light hearted.

"I'm not telling you anything Warner!" I quickly looked at Franky in the next cell, I was trying to put on a strong image. "We came to the knowledge that you, the Kingston, had the...map, the lost map." the words slipped off my tounge, my mouth watered at the sound of it. The lost map was a legend to pirates!

Blood was still pouring down my face, perhaps he isnt the guy I think he is.

"There is no other reason to travel the unchartered waters if your not in search of the map!" My eyes widened "We have searched all the other capt...errr....we have searched a long distance for this map" I stuttered, I nearly slipped up, I can't be giving the game away - not now!

This map intrigued me. I began to wonder what it was... the adventurer in me beginning to show.
Still, I had to hold back my interest. We did not have any map... at least I knew that I didn't have the map. As I listened to what Kruger was telling me, it dawned on me that I didn't really know any of my crew that well. Only earlier Jimmy O'Malley, who I thought was my friend, had turned against us. The only man I really trusted was my old friend Peterson. But even he had a dark past.

Was the map onboard my ship?

"Listen Kruger," I said, finally throwing him a towel to mop up his wounds, "I do not have any knowledge of the map. My reasons for entering uncharted waters are my own. But if you tell me what this map is... then maybe I could help you."

I was wondering that the last thing Kruger was about to say meant. He had searched all the other capt...? Was he about to say captains? As far as I knew there wa sonly one other captain in uncharted waters...

"What say you Kruger?" I asked again.

I snuck into the Brig from the back and watched the interigation. I was very interested in what was going on and I wrote everything I saw down in my notebook.

Every now and then, Kruger would stare at me with a lust for death in his eyes. I had to look away each time he did this as it was most unsettling.
