Pictures on the wall

In the writing class we read a story that was called "The Mary Celeste", later we modificated the story and added an ending, here is mine.


It was a horrible day, it was raining a lot, the water didn’t stop falling, my new shoes got dirty with the water.

   I was sailing with my mates when i lost control of the ship and PUMM!

   All my life passed through my mind, i was very scared, like in 1987, when i lost my daughter in a car accident, i felt worried, because i was sure that on the ship that i had crashed there were a lot of passengers with a lovely life, and with this crash, i had taken their lives. I felt so dissapointed.

   When i stopped crying i went to the other ship, the one that i had crashed against with. It was called "The Mary Celeste", I thought that all of the passengers on that ship were were going to be dead, but it wasn’t like this. Nobody was on the Mary Celeste, i could only see some food over a table, a cutlass covered in blood, and a breakfast which was only half eaten.

   I was so relieved that i hadn’t hurt anyone, except for my wife.

    

    Three days later i started thinking how this ship,  "The Mary Celeste", had arrived to the middle of the sea without a captain of someone that drove it.

   The next day i arrived to the place where this scene had taken place with Brad, that was a famous detective.

  The ship was new and clean, except for the front part that was broken.

   We investigated all of it, and compared all the clues that we found, but we couldn’t discover anything.

  At the end of the ship, in a corner, there was a lot of wood. I tried to move them but i couldn’t, so Brad had to help me. In the end we made it, there was a kind of room underneath, that had lots of pictures of beautiful women, one of them was my wife, but she was dead, how could this be? Why did they have a photo of my wife? Who is living here? so many questions but no answers...

   Later i heard a voice:

  "She is my wife now"
 
     A white man appeared sitting on the sofa, he was very strange.

   "What is your name?" Asked Brad

     " My name is Fernando"

     "Who are you?"
   
      "I am spirit, i used to be like you, a simple human"

        "Really? are you a spirit?". I said a little bit scared.

       "Yeah! ten years ago i was sailing on this ship with my wife Rosie, we wanted to explore the fish, but this ship got broken, a mermaid had stopped the engine, and also she killed my wife, because she was beautiful and the mermaid was jealous."

     " I am sorry, but why do you have pictures of different women?" I asked

      "Because i want to take revenge, so i have been killing all the women that come across my ship" He replied.

     "But where is my wife?" I asked

     "Here is the truth: You didn’t crash against my ship, it was attracted to mine, because this ship is made of metal, the engine of the other is made of magnet, so the two ships were attracted. When your ship was near mine i killed your wife and i turned her into a spirit, like me, so the two of us can get married" He explained. "She is so beautiful, and now she is my girl!" He shouted.

   I was so shocked and angry.

Brian was white from head to toes.

   We decided to sink the ship, so no accident could happen ever again.
 
    Be careful!, because you don’t know what you may find under the sea.
