How I Became A Pirate Book Novels & Stories

CHAPTER17 About forty-five year later, a young man was reading a book titled, The Destruction of the Ghost Pirates, which was published in 1702. An old man walked up to him, walking with the support of the cane. He sat down on his an arm chair in opposite direction to the young man, and asked him a question. ‘Titus, what are you reading about?’ ‘It’s your book. The story about funny pirates that terrorized the world. Actually, it’s a fiction book. Book is very interesting.’ Titus said to his grandpa, smiling.

"Lilibeth, stop making Hank angry. He normally treats you so well and buys you clothes and purses. Just take my place in the shark tank this once and treat this as paying him back. Besides, you scrub and mop the deck all day, so you must have some very steady footing. There's no way you'll slip." The trust-fund kids around us also joined in and started to make a scene. "Yeah, that's right! Why is a cleaner acting so proud?" "Get down there already. Don't ruin the show for all of us!" I looked at all the well-dressed fools around me as I scoffed. If this were a year ago, I would have tied up every one of them and hung them from the mast to let them taste the sea breeze. My name was Lilibeth B

When I watched as my home was burned to the ground and everyone slaughtered by pirates. FLASHBACK! I am twelve years old, in my human village. Yes, I was human once. I was born under the blood moon. With jet black hair and violet eyes. I was told growing up I was cursed, a witch, but I was so much more than that. The oracle told my parents that I was destined for war and so I was shunned by the village, but not my parent’s or brother. They loved me and I loved them. Until the night of the full blood moon on my birthday. Pirates invaded our village.

She chuckles as she takes another sip, but then the smile slowly leaves her lips. “The night of my twelfth birthday, the pirates invaded our village. They burnt our homes, they fought with the men and boys who were protecting their homes and their families. My mother told me to run and to hide. So, I did. I watched from the hill as the pirates raped and murdered the women, my mother included. They made the men watch as they took their wives and older daughters before they slaughtered them. No-one was left alive. Until they found me, the sole survivor. The witch, the cursed one. They had come for me.” I take a deep breath and pull her into my arms and Lykos whimpers at hearing her story.

Calvin looked up at me, blinking and yawning with his cute pretty eyes staring at me expectedly. He shuffled over and I squeezed myself next to him having to fold myself like a paper craft to fit on the miniature human bed. I opened the book and started reading and got to some parts where the pirate was searching for a treasure on an island. I glanced down, hoping he was asleep but I made an eye contact with his heterochromia eyes. He was widely awake. Why? Go to sleep! I stifled a roar and the urge to dump the book into the toilet crossed my mind. I tried to regain control over my emotions and continue to read to him.

Damn, I don't even feel anything other than dismay and outrage from them. I feel like my perspective towards the pirates change a little bit, maybe because I tried hanging out with them to secure my safety that I didn't notice that it somehow change me a little. I smiled as the wind keeps blowing my hair, in here, I felt free. I felt like my life is finally mine, with no bounds and no responsibilities. Just freedom. But I know, in my current situation, there is a possibility that the pirates I am with now may stab me in my back because I didn't follow them.

The pirate leader proceeded, “We weren’t always pirates, if you must know. We never raided ships to begin with. But after what your kingdom did to us, being pirates is the only thing that we know we can do. It is what we had to do.” My eyes widened as I met his gaze. “We were once fishermen from the kingdom of Middle Earth. Life was simple. And even though it was a struggle sometimes, we were thankful,” the pirate leader started his explanation. “But when the previous king died, everything changed. His queen campaigned for modernism. And when she discovered a more advanced, quicker way to do the fishing, she ordered us to stop. “But we didn’t know any other livelihood. And she didn’t even tr

I picked up a book about a young girl who lost everything at such a young age but still rose to be the head of a pirate ship, earning both respect and recognition throughout history. I was so lost in the story that I didn't realize that there was someone there in the room with me, until I heard someone clearing their throat loud and clear. Shocked, I looked up to see who could still be awake in the middle of the night and was surprised to find Alpha Arnold smiling down at me. I reciprocated his silent greeting and raised the book in my hand for him to see. “I hope you don't mind that I borrowed this,” I asked him. Silently, he walked straight to the shelves and brought out a book. With the w

The first time he had ever touched someone not out of instruction or obligation—purely because his instincts refused to let that hand vanish from his reach. They stayed until the last embers of dusk. Feliks read aloud from the book he’d brought—pirates, a mysterious island absent from every map. Isabella listened with her back against the branch, watching the night sky through gaps in the leaves that felt deliberately placed for the two of them alone. “We’re going to be pirates too,” she declared. Final. “Pirates are criminals.” “The characters in adventure books are criminals too. But their adventures are extraordinary.” Feliks ran out of arguments. “All right.”

With each word, he could see the vast ocean stretching out before him, feel the salty breeze on his face, and hear the seagulls calling overhead. "Look, Theo, the pirate captain is about to find the treasure chest!" Hazel pointed to the illustrations in the book, bringing the story to life for Theo. Excitedly, Theo jumped up and grabbed his toy sword, pretending to be the brave pirate captain on a daring adventure. Hazel joined in the fun, using different voices for the characters in the story and adding playful sound effects that made Theo giggle with delight. As the story unfolded, Theo's imagination knew no bounds. He transformed into a fearless knight defending a magical kingdom, a darin
