homesick is that pirate that had taught me lots. I am so sad now that he had been killed! I need to take
revenge for his death, he was a loyal person before he even died! But for now, I need to see my family,
discover the truth why that Pirate said that my mother was a bad influence for me… So I need your help
with doing that, I live in Scotland and I have never seen my parents since I am 12. I am now 18 if I didn’t
tell you yet, sorry about that. Anyways, the pirate that died is called Captain Rod, the pirate I talked to is
called Pirate K. I don’t know anyone of them since I don’t talk to them much…
Now, we have arrived in Scotland and I finally got to see my family. I asked my father some questions
privately because I didn’t want to say it in front of my mom. I asked: “ Dad, why did you lie a few years ago
about mom being a bad influence? You definitely know that she is not the kind of doing bad things!” My
dad heard me and replied: “I did what I had to do to keep you away from mom! You were the most
beloved person and I was poor, no one cared about me, your mom only loved you! You have to go before I
change my mind and kill you! YOU ARE NO ONE TO COMPARE TO SON, YOU WILL NOT
WIN ME!”
Of course! Dad killed Captain Rod, not mom, everybody I visited lied to me! Captain Rod lied to me to
keep my dad safe from not letting me know and did what’s best to get out of my dad’s way! Mom knew
that dad was possessed by a ghost! I finally understand why everybody lied to me! I really should not live on
this earth anymore! Suddenly, someone behind me said: “Xalian, you are too blinded by your stupid friend
rod. You must know, killing yourself will stop your father being possessed but Rod just had to get you out
of the way! This is all a misunderstanding.
We, Ming treasure voyages, must not fight back anymore, before, we stand our ground. Now, we
collapsed but we must now do nothing and nothing will happen to us anymore! Just don’t fight back. My
family got back together and I became a spirit, a good. I watch the Ming Treasure voyages to see if they do
anything bad. They must now! This is my story. We don’t know the future but this ended well.
