CHAPTER 2

Onboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, Fred, Sam and I had just snuck into Blackbeard's cabin while he slept. As Fred and Sam searched the shelves, I noticed The Book in Blackbeard's hand.

I wrapped my fingers around The Book and began to gently pull it from his grasp. I almost had it, too, except for one small thing...

Suddenly, Blackbeard sat up and grabbed my arm. "I needs me a chantey, boy!" he hissed.
