Pua cast his line from the dinghy and it snagged straight away. Uncle tried to help him reel it in but it would not budge. Suddenly the skies turned grey, the sea got choppy and a giant pirate ship bubbled up from the depths of the ocean, dwarfing Uncles dinghy.
The ship looked abandoned so Pua and Uncle climb up the muscle and barnacle rope. It was slippery but they got to the top.When they stepped onto the deck they gasped at what they saw and slowly backed away because standing in front of them was a sight so dreadful Pua wanted to vomit up his fish and chips. It was a male they think, the ugliest one they had ever seen. His face was covered in muscles and thick yellow goo. He had a seashell stuck in his left eye, he also had a beard made of thick green seaweed and you could sometimes get a glimpse of seafood, like sea slugs and the heads of turtles and fish. And when he opened his mouth he had no tongue but a black fishtale that flopped around when he talked. His face was dripping with water and the skin you could see was a pale yellow with blotches of brown. He was wearing a cloak with a fold rim around the collar and black boots made of money. On his head was some lonely strands of hair.
"I am Captain Clams Bottom", he croaked. His voice sounded like a million pins scrapping on a blackboard with a background sound of gurgling water, "And this is my crew,"
He pointed behind Pua and Uncle, they turned around and big sacks were dumped on their heads. Pua was carried into a room that smelt like wet dog and fish. "Uncle, Uncle", Pua cried but he could not hear him. Pua grabbed his pocket knife and cut a hole through the sack and slid out, he was in a room with only two things in it, a chair with a lone doll sitting on it. She was wearing a white frock, she had a ponytail and her hair was matted and wet. She was staring at Pua in a peculiar way and said," I know how to get out of this dreadful boat", her voice was like an angel, "follow me,". So Pua followed her through leaky passages filled with pictures of Captain Clams bottom even ones of Uncle.
 They walk past a room and they saw Uncle with Clams Bottom and they seemed to know each other and to even be friends, so Pua hurried past with his head down. Then they got to a trapdoor and jumped into the water the doll whose name is pearl called a see creature a big amazing whale and  caught  a ride back
 to the village and live happily together
