I had a feeling it would go this way for that unloyal monkey hahaha I think you did a great job with the pirate speak. I also like that the captain of the ship was a woman. It's generally not what you see in a pirate kind of story and I think it's great that you did that.
The cowards always lose! And when you knock out your captain behind her back, you're gonna lose. So I was very happy with the ending of your short story.
Thanks for sharing! I think yours is a great entry into the contest. Cheers!
