=Poseidon= ==

It was a cold dark rainy night and the only person out at sea was a man named Poseidon. Poseidon was a very good sailor. Actually he was the best. He could sail through any weather. Until one day when a very bad storm blow in. He also was very strong, but he had a bad temper. Anyway as the storm raged on Poseidon was unable to sail his boat back to safety. The storm lasted most the night and by morning Poseidon found himself in a coral-rife. With big holes in the bottom of his boat. His boat slowly started to sink. As the boat sank Poseidon got his lifeboat and hurried to get his survival kit. After five minutes the last of the boat sank. Now as hopeless as a fish out of water, he was running out of food and supplies. Also he was caught in a shark pool. He was caught in one before but then he had his fishing boat. He started to panic when the sharks started to ram the lifeboat. After a hour he had finally found his way out of the shark pool, but the damage wasn't easy to fix from the water, but his repairs held until he found a island. When at the shores of this mysterious island he had noticed that there were no people around. As he walked along the shores he also noticed that there was sighs that someone is or has been on the island. With in twenty minutes of arriving on the island he found a fire pit that was still steaming hot. Also he found a fairly new trail. As he walked around he had a felling that someone was following him. So he started to run then suddenly stopped and turned and saw someone standing five feet away. "Who are you?" "Um, I'm Pete, I was in a ship wreak and i am that has survived so far, all the others were lost at sea or died here." "O, that was your ship the one that crashed and none of the cure was ever found or even a trace!" "Well we, I mean everyone that lived found our way here where we have lived for five years." "How long have you been here alone?" "Um, like two weeks, but with the storm I kind of knew that someone would show up." "Really? In those five years haven't you ever wanted to go home and get off this island?" "Ya but I am almost done with my boat and I'll teach you,so you can get off this island some day." "Well thanks when can we get started?" "First you have to take a tore of the island and then tomorrow I'll show you." After the first day on the island Pete and Poseidon started on his boat.The first thing they did was go and cute down the biggest and oldest tree on the island. Then the next step was to cute the tree in half and carve the middle out but not to thin and not to little but it has to be thick enough so you don't fall through the bottom. Also not so heavy that it sinks. After a month Poseidon was almost caught up with Pete who was done with his boat. The next morning Pete and Poseidon where talking about how much they would miss the island and each other. After a month of being on the island Poseidon has never woken up alone before but today he did. When he went to go search the island he found that Pete's boat was gone and in its please was a note that said goodbye and good luck on your journey back to the mainland. For the next two days Poseidon prepares himself for his long and ruthless journey across the sea. On his last day on the island he finds the graves of the others and pays his respects. From being on this island so long he had found out that when he was mad the seas were hard to sail but when he was calm the sea was calm. So as he set off on his journey to get back home he knew that he had to stay calm. For being so calm he finally made his way home and found his friend Pete. From then on they went sailing and they never had a problem with storms again.
