In the middle of the ocean there was a pirate named Red Beard. He was alone. It was a stormy night when lightning struck and it hit the boat which sunk. Red Beard had a red beard and was feeling unsafe. He thought to himself “I should go home.” Because of the storm, his boat sank so he tried to swim. The tide was too rough for the pirate to swim.
