The Ship

For once in his life he finally felt free. Free of chore, free of life, free of everything holding him back. He finally felt like he could accomplish something. Something new, something grand, something no one had ever accomplished before.

He had finally saved enough money to buy himself a ship. He spent years and years of a lifetime to earn enough money to buy this ship. Even though it was just an old, crusty, pile of wood, he was determined to make it his new life.

As he was working the next day, trying to earn enough money to hire workers to help with the boat, he saw a flyer up on a nearby post. As he was reading it a smile appeared on his face. On the flyer was a million dollar reward for the capture of the legendary theif, Blue Beard, and he knew exactly where Blue Beard was.

He started running full speed toward the town hall to report Blue Beard and get his money. As he approached the building he saw someone putting a notice on a nearby post. Blue Beard had been found and it wasn't by him, so he didn't get the money.

He began his walk home. He had to think of another way to get money, and he had to think fast. Finally, he thought of something. He could become a part time slayer. Since they received millions of dollars a year he decided it must be an easy job. The only problem was he didn't know how to become a slayer.

He went around the town asking people if they knew anything about becoming a slayer. No one knew anything about it. He was about to give up when finally someone was able to tell him exactly how to become a slayer. All he had to do was find The Slay School. After a few minutes of wandering around he finally found it. As he was walking towards the door someone swung a huge red sword right in front of him.
