The pirates did not return. It was very hot and unpleasant inside the fort. I had a plan and I needed to leave the fort.
First I ran down to the white rocks and looked for Ben Gunn’s boat. I soon found it under some bushes. As soon as it was dark, I got into the boat and rowed out to the Hispaniola. I found the rope that connected the ship to the anchor and cut through it with my knife until the ship was free.
As I did this, I could hear the angry voices of Israel Hands and another mutineer in a cabin above me.
The ship began to move away in the night air.
By then I was so tired that I fell asleep in the boat when I awoke I found myself at the southwest end of Treasure Island.
I moved slowly to the next bay, and suddenly I saw the Hispaniola in front of me. The wind and the currents were moving the ship. I couldn’t see anyone on it. As soon as I was close enough, I grabbed a rope and climbed onboard.
I soon saw two pirates lying on the deck at the back of the ship. One was dead. The other, Israel Hands, was injured and calling for rum.
I drank the water and give Hands the rum. As he drank it, the color returned to his cheeks.
“I’m taking over this ship, Mr Hands,” I said. “You will treat me as your captain.”
“I imagine,” said Hands, “you want to get ashore. Now you need my help. Give me some food and drink, and something to tie up my wound. Then I’ll tell you how to sail the ship. That’s fair, isn’t it?”
“I want to get to North Inlet.”
Hands agreed to help me. We soon arrived at the North Inlet. Hands was very good at guiding me in and I followed his instructions perfectly. I was working hard on bringing the ship in safely and forgot to watch Hands. When I turned around Hands was standing behind me, his knife ready...
