After a good night sleep, my crew and I woke up as the sun was rising, such a beautiful and unforgettable scenery. At the end we parted ways with the natives we allied with and sailed off to share the rest of the goods we have in our ship. In the following years, the crew and I shared more of our goods to other countries, but as time passed I had decided to part ways with the crew since I finally found my family so my father and I left the crew and started a new life on land. Before we left, the captain gave us the last bit of the the goods as we left the people who took care of me. I will never forget that crew of the pirates who give rather than steal, they are the people who took care of me as I grew up and taught me the ways of giving and forming an alliance with others. So the people today should stop all the fighting and learn to make peace each other, less violence and more peace. As historian looked back on the crew I was with and truly believed that China “ruled the sea” back then, ruling as in forging a relationship with the countries we have been to, so spread the word, you don’t always have to fight there’s always another way. Till this day I still dreamed the day I would reunite with these band of pirates again, hope my dream will come true.
