Eldor thought a moment, ''I kinda want to know how you steer this thing.''

"Alright then.", the captain boomed up. He seemed to be in a good mood today.

Eldor glanced sidelong at Kastron, he supposed the captain was in such good spirits was because he had restocked on his rum. With a shrug he followed the captain out of the galley.
As the captain stomped noisily about the ship he explained how the ship was steered. ''This here is the steering wheel,'' he said indicating the steering wheel. and it is connected to that thingumajig, which is attached to that somethingorother then is controlling that flibbertigibbet, and steers the rudder, now I need to go find some rum,'' he said wiping his forehead with a greasy handkerchief, and with that he stormed below deck again.

Kastron and Eldor looked at each other. "Well. Now you know how to sail."

“Indeed,” answered Eldor, rather flustered as he tried to put all his new knowledge into order.

Kastron nodded, then looked at the sky. "A storms coming up.", he said. "A real big one."

Eldor felt his sea sickness returning, ''great,'' he said, ''just when I was figuring out how to walk.''

Kastron smirked at him. "Well I like it when it storms sometimes. I might lay on deck here and be pitched around. Or I might work on the map."

Eldor nodded, already imagining the feeling of bile rising in his throat, ''I'm going to my cabin,'' he said abruptly.

Kastron nodded. "I suppose we don't have anything better to do so long as the storm didn't start yet." He rushed below decks into the cabin in search of his map, but he couldn't find it anywhere. He had already ransacked the cabin four times when Eldor came in the door.

Eldor walked in, he raised his eyebrow slightly, but know real surprise registered on his face at the utter destruction of their cabin. He merely walked over to his knapsack and began searching through it for his unfinished knife and whet stone. He found the stone but the blade was nowhere to be seen.

Kastron, who was still ransacking under the bed yelled out,"I can't find me map!" He scuttled out from under the bed.

''I can't find my knife,'' Eldor thundered.

The two boys stared at each other, thinking the same thought.

''You,'' Eldor accused, looking straight at Kastron.
