Abandoned ship!
For it is sinking.
It's crashed into a rock.
We don't know how happened,
but it is very dark.

Next we heard an evil laugh.
We all looked up and we saw a marlfox,
with a grin on his face.
Shadow and Gilv Ripclaw tried to fight him,
but were thrown overboard.

I drew my saber but up a daring fight.
Argh! I was hit in the arm.
He laughed a cold high pitched laugh,
and we never saw him again.
