⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵...(Tour of "High Island")...Continued...
[Last time...]
Lieutenant Bleujay’s mind went blank as she suddenly stood face to face with the warrior Big Bear! He himself stood like a man frozen as well and his eyes opened wide. Bleujay with knife in hand, thought of the fighting techniques that Commander Kerrislravenhill taught her, a jumble of images all flashed through her mind at once!
‘Ye have trained us well…’ °°°°° She thought in rapid dictation to herself, ‘but there is no time!!’ °°°°°

[Seneca Village…prisoner tee-pee…]
Lieutenant Bleujay took in one deep breath as she stood face to face with the warrior Big Bear! His surprise to see her standing and untied in front of him was obvious and for a second, he glanced down at the cut rawhide bindings dangling from the prisoner post in dismay.
‘It was now or never!’ °°°°° Bleujay thought as she took a fast swipe with her blade that was still in her right hand!
The strike was minor, but effective! A deep gash opened across Bid Bear’s left cheek and blood splashed down upon his chest!
Still spinning from her attack, Bleujay quickly ducked down and sliced a tear in the wall of the tee-pee behind her, through which she dashed as fast as she could!
[On the Silverton…now directly offshore of the main camp of the Seneca village…]
“Sails doon!” The Captain’s deep voice boomed, “Drap anchor!”
The many hundred warriors that lined the east bank of the river shuffled and jogged along the river, gawking and yelling threats from the shoreline…
“!pimp!” Junior Petty Officer blurted out in a nervous exclamation as he eyed the crowded shoreline.
“I'm awake, can't have enough of my favorite coffee…” Commander Kerrislravenhill jested as she too eyed the angry crowd.
“Ye may need that coffee mate!” Commander Galligan replied absently as he watched carefully for any sign of attack from the Seneca.
“I completely agree with you…..” Warrant Officer Lupega said as he swallowed hard and watched the Indians running along the shore.
