“Regardless o’ who wins…”The captain said, setting his pipe down…” He aims tae raid th' booty jist as we begin tae load it oan th' ship!”
"Blimey!" Gratfuleveryday remarked as he pondered the thought.
"Noo listen canny..." The captain said as glanced at each officer, one by one...

[In the forest…along the Niagara…]
‘Grrrrrrr! Water!’
‘We swim?!’
‘Nooooo….run….’
‘Eat them!’
‘Run along water! Follow! Grrrrrr!’
The head wolf whirled about and began running hard down the pathway along the north bank of the river!
”Help!” Leyla called out desperately as her head went back and forth, under the water and then above.
“Don’t worry!” Lupega yelled as he stroked hard to overtake her in the strong current, “I’ll save you!”
Swimming hard, it didn’t take him long to come upon her. He put one arm around her neck and swam with his other. Leyla coughed repeatedly and then relaxed a bit as she took in deep breaths and began to calm herself...
Out of the corner of his eye, Lupega noticed movement along the river’s bank...
‘The wolves are trailing us!’ °°°°° He thought to himself, 'I must stay to the center of the river!' °°°°°
‘Run!’
'Catch them!’
‘Eat them!’
The wolves communicated to themselves as the pack quickened their pace and ran on. Less than a quarter of a mile north, a large, fallen tree projected out into the river. The wolves knew it well. It would provide an opportunity cut off their prey and finish what they had started! Their blood ran hot and their tongues wagged in the cool night breeze as they ran harder!
In the river, Lupega’s heart pounded. The wound on his leg was shedding blood and he started to breath heavily.
‘Can we make it to Youngstown?’ °°°°° He wondered desperately, ‘Will my strength hold out? Some pretty complicated problems are coming...we will have to be very alert and more united than ever to counteract all of this!’ °°°°°
The dark of the night fell heavy on our two lost souls. Leyla drifted in and out of consciousness as Lupega held her tight in a strong grip...
