"Aye, sir, look for yourself." Answered Commander Doyle handing the Colonel a spyglass. Colonel Bennett peered through the glass. "He's escaped again!" Thought Bennett angrily.
MEANWHILE
"Bring me thet cypher book from me trunk." Captain Jim called to Laramie. So he rummaged through the trunk and came out with a dusty old book. Captain Jim then spent a few minutes looking through it till he came upon the Bristol sea cypher.
"Here it is." He said excitedly laying the book beside the map. The he pulled a piece of paper out of the log book and dipped his quill in ink. The four men looked carefully over the code and eventually came upon an answer. Their faces glowed with excitement for their treasure was in sight. As the secret of the map unfolded, Captain Jim sketched a new set of cordinates on the page he pulled out of the log book.
"It looks like the treasure is in the Indeno Islands just south of the Maldives!" Laramie said excitedly.
"That's only two days sailing frrrom herrre!" The mate joined in.
"Yes, be boys, we'll soon have our treasure, but we'll need ta be careful, cuz them waters are controlled by Alaf Quardata, and ya know how he hates havin' uninvited guests!"
"Yea he had the last bunch drawn and quartered!" Laramie said.
