It was very cold that night, and I tried to cover up properly and adjusted to my space on the floor. I woke to make use of the comfy bed of the big guy; I had just adjusted to its warmth when the door swung open. Behold the big guy resurfaced with his colleague behind him. He switched on the light and beamed an ominous stare at me, I needed no explanation to tell what’s coming if I refused to get up immediately. So I gently went over to my humble space feeling horrified at his return.

Anyways, I managed to catch a little sleep but to be awoken by the ship loud horn noise. I woke up and found my colleagues up already.

“What’s that?’’. I asked.

Nobody answered me as they seemed to be reacting to the sound.

“that was five short blast”. The big guy said to his colleague.

And immediately they jerked up and started packing their stuff in order. Jaz and Sly seemed to be quiet on their bed. I knew danger was brooding. Again , the short five horns came again.

“I suspect Pirates”. Jaz said to Sly who was calm on his bed.

“how are you sure?”. Sly asked.

Jaz said nothing, he just came down from his bed and stepped out of our cabin. I stood up and headed for the door.

Outside, the crew onboard had stepped out of their cabins running up and down the little corridor. I followed some people to the deck, the full flash lights were on and there were armed officers running towards the edge of the ship. Suddenly a teargas shot into our deck. I retreated back into our accommodation covering my nose with my shirt. The ship was into frenzy at that time, and it was barely bright as night ate up the brightness of the moon.

When I returned to our cabin, after maneuvering the rush, no one was there. I rushed out looking for them, the teargas had penetrated to where I was . A man came to me and said.

“go to the lower part of the ship!”.

He shouted on top of his voice to everyone,

“Everyone down! Everyone down!”.

In fear, I joined the group running through the stirs to a lower room. Soon there was sound of gunshots, and voices screaming. The gunshots continued for about an hour and there was peace. A young guy stood up and said,

“Someone has to check”.

Two guys agreed to join him and they went out. They had not gone few steps when a voice shouted in a foreign language.

I knew the ship had been taken. The ladies onboard began crying slowly. And the noise started getting up.

“Silence! Quiet please”. I whispered.

I slowly moved to the door and was about opening it when it opened abruptly and hit me on my face and I feel backwards. Two lanky guys holding an AK 47, covering their faces with muffler surfaced looking sharply at us.

I immediately moved backwards when I saw them. One of them said something in a foreign tongue and the other interpreted it.

“no shout. Cool…. No die, okay?”.

The first guy spoke again in a foreign language and his second interpreted.

“Go! Go up”. Pointing at the door.

We all moved to the deck, following their order and joined the group sitting down on the floor which apparently were everyone onbaord.

I looked around for Jaz and Sly, but they were nowhere around my view save for the big guy and his colleague who sat few distance adjacent me. One of the guys pushed me down as I was still looking and shouted something in a foreign tongue. I respected myself and sat slowly.

Four of them came out from our accommodation with a full bag, and the very big muscular one who seems like the commander asked them something in a foreign tongue, they responded in the same. Then he then turned to us and said.

“ I want money, bring money now or die!”. Then turn around and pointed at a man. “You! Bring money, gold, money! I want now!”.

The man looked at him confused and he said something to one of his men, and the man was dragged up and taken in. they took some others and eventually, it was my turn.

I was pushed to my cabin by two slim guys. When they entered, they found the place upside down like someone had ransacked the place. On seeing that, they returned me back to deck. Same was done to everyone. By this time it was morning and Sly and Jaz was nowhere to be found.

The robbers seemed to have looted enough, and their leader shouted something to them, and his men responded. From observation I think they haven’t found what they came for. The leader dragged one of the naval officers up and said.

“Gold, plenty gold….where e go?’’.

“I don’t know, I swear I don’t know”. The naval officer said in fear.

The leader looked at the big blue ocean and then to his men. immediately three of his men gripped the naval officer by his arms and bind up his legs, and hands behind his back and dragged him to the edge of the ship. Then waited for their leaders command.

The leader turned to us and said,

“Gold, or he die! Gold now!”.

The leader waited for a response from us, but no one said anything, we were all petrified seeing so many armed men on board.

He then said regretfully.

“you, you, you, you,”. Pointing randomly at the crowed sitting on the floor. “you kill him, him children, person give him children breast, cry for you”.

Then he nodded to his guys. They raised up the naval officer and threw him overboard. The whole crew yelled in horror and the leader shouted.

“Heyyyyyyyy! No make fim! if you make Fim! You die!”.

And there was a sudden silence. The commander walked to fro in front of us and then stopped in front of lady I believe to be the cook, judging by her apron.

“You!”. He said pointing to her.

She ran back in fear, hiding behind a man who held her in his embrace whispering something to her ear.

The commander looked at his men and they rushed towards the lady and dragged her up while she struggled, screamed and cried. They bind her hands and legs even though she struggled in tears begging from the depth of her heart. And when they were done, they moved back, while the lady sat on her butt crying and begging passionately.

The commander stood in front of her and said to us.

“She breast to children”. One of his men whispered “mother”. He nodded and said. “she be mother. You kill her if you no give I gold!”.

A man stood up and said in a very emotional tone visibly shaken in fear.

“Let…Let her go….please I beg you!”.

The commander looked at him for few second and asked.

“You…. You….”. joining his finger together trying to describe what he wanted to say.

“She’s my wife sir, please let her go, take me instead”.

“oh…you wife?”. The leader asked.

“yes sir, please take me”. The man said almost in tears.

“now hear”. The leader said. “you, bring gold, e go”. Pointing to the lady.

“I don’t have it sir, I am only a cook here, we don’t have any gold sir”. The man said with tears running down his face.

By this time the sun up and burning hot. But the leader seemed not to take notice of it as he continued talking.

“e die, if I get, no gold”.

The man then turn to us and shouted.

“Please, give him the gold! She’s the mother of my three kids, please…”. And he broke down in tears.

The leader waited for awhile and no one made a move, he nodded to his men, and the grabbed the woman up, even as she struggled. Her husband seeing what was about to happen to his wife, rushed the commander and bit him on his throat, the commanders men rushed him and hit him with the butt of their guns on his head, he refused to let go until he ripped open the leaders throat before he dropped on the leader body shaking with his white eyes rolling up.

The leader’s men rushed him and loosen the muffler from his head to tied the cut while he coughed blood . This time the group where disorganized and one brave officer bounced on one of the bandits stabbing him on the neck and retrieving his gun. Then the officer screamed.

‘’All hands on deck! Fight!”.

Others joined in. Guns sporadically shot and I laid flat on the floor. Soon other gallant crew members joined in, using whatsoever they could retrieve as weapon. I managed to hide behind some containers watching from a safe distance. One of the bandits escaped towards my direction and stopped when he saw me, he was going to pull out his gun when I bounced on him . we struggled and struggled, suddenly, he pulled out a knife from his combat pocket and aimed it on my neck. I held his hand dragging with him. Then I used my knee on his rod very hard. He bent over giving me the chance over him. I slammed his head hard on the container and the knife dropped, I quickly picked it and drove it in his tummy several times until he dropped on the floor.

I rushed out with the gun and discovered that the bandits had been overpowered as they flew overboard in escape.

Abeg, keep some for him

I walked carefully through the busy crew, few bodies from both sides laid around. I was surprised dead bodies meant nothing to me anymore as I crossed over them looking for Sly and Jaz. Then suddenly my eyes caught the lady crying sitting on the floor with her husband’s head on her laps. Soon some group gathered around her, some were sympathetic while others stood in grievous faces.

Some group of guys in lifejackets went in search for the naval officer in a lifeboat. They later returned with his dead body. It was a cold afternoon that day, nobody remembered lunch or breakfast.

I later returned to my cabin and lay on Jaz’s space. I still wondered where he and Sly had gone. i was about dozing off when the big guy and his colleague came in, they are like inseparable duo.

“You’re still alive?”. The big guy asked sitting on his bed.

I didn’t say anything and looked away. His colleague said.

“I believe this is your first experience?’’.

I turned to him and nodded. He laughed and said.

“It is my first. I use to hear of pirates attack, I never knew it’s this bloody”.

“This is less bloody”. Said the big guy, sitting up. “ once, we were attacked and it was a killing spree. At least 10 died”.

“if it wasn’t for the brave intervention of the cook and that officer do you know how many would have died?’’. His colleague added.

“Where are your guys? I haven’t seen them since the attack’’. The big guy asked me.

Before I could think of whether to answer of not, Jaz opened the door and said, with Sly behind him with his backpack on his back.

“Who’s looking for us?’’.

I jumped up and looked surprisingly at them. The big guy turned towards them abruptly, then returned to his bed saying nothing.

Jaz got to his bed and waited for me to leave, while Sly jumped up to his bunk. I slowly moved to my space while he laid heavily on his bed with a loud heave of relief. I wanted to ask them where they went but I couldn’t because of our cabin mates.

The cabin was silent until Jaz said.

“Won’t they give somebody food today?”.

“Not after what happened“. Sly answered.

“I have to get something”. Jaz said and stood up from his bed.

I stood up too, and when Jaz saw me on his tail he said obnoxiously.

“Where the hell do you think you’re going to?”.

I got slighted by his words and replied arrogantly .

“Who the hell do you think you are, talking to everyone as if you’re the boss?’’

The room went cold as everyone fixed their eyes on me. Jaz couldn’t believe his ears as he turned ominously towards me. I didn’t know why I said what said, maybe because I was overwhelmed by the happenings.

“Were you talking to me?’’. Jaz asked.

Sly came down from his bunk and held Jaz on the shoulder gently pushing him out but Jaz resisted him and asked again coming closer to me. I could see the excitement in the big man’s eyes as he watched the drama between us.

“Are you deaf? I thought I asked you a question?”. Jaz repeated.

I then regretted to have shut my mouth. It wasn’t late, at least I wouldn’t say anything anymore to keep from trouble. So I just stood staring at Jaz.

Jaz held me on the neck and slapped me lightly as he spoke.

“Next time, you talk to me like that, I will rip your pretty face with my claws”. And he pushed me and walked away.

I was so vexed that I was shocked to have been able to tame my beast. Sly came to me after Jaz had left and said.

“let’s go get something to eat”.

He retrieved his backpack, hung it on his back and we both set out. We ended up in a store beside the cafeteria, had a bottle of soft drink and snacks. While we were eating, I decided to ask.

“where did you guys go to, I searched everywhere for you guys”.

Sly took a bite and after chewing, drank from the bottle of soft drink before he replied.

“We were making use of the situation”. And he had another bite, looking at the crew moving about.

I reasoned his words and couldn’t make out the meaning. So I asked again.

“how come you guys weren’t caught? They searched everywhere”.

“Not everywhere, if not they would have seen us”. Sly said.

Suddenly there was a commotion, I stood up and asked a guy walking with another.

“ what was going?’’.

He said they found three dead bodies of the bandits in the hold of the ship. I turned to Sly who seemed complacent chewing away his snack and sat beside him with my heart pounding.

“Who killed those guys?” I asked Sly.

He looked at me and shrugged. Then he said after empting the last snack in his hand.

“Next time never leave our sight, do you hear me?’’

I nodded. Then he added.

“That’s all I wanted to tell you”. Then finished the remaining and said. “let’s go”.

We spent a week in peace and finally reached our destination. After we were done with the preliminaries, we met with two Arabian guys who Jaz called. They took instruction from Jaz and we used a car they came in and drove to a hotel. The country is an Arabian country judging by lots of Arabians moving around; Sly never let the bag out of his sight all the way. He hung it on his back.

After we had checked into our separate rooms, I decided to have a fresh bath and rest for the first time in a week. I was about dozing off when a knock woke me up.

“who’s that?”. I asked.

“sly “. Came the voice.

I wondered what he wanted and went to get the door. He walked in and sat on the bed.

“You should be ready Frozen, tomorrow is your baptism”. Sly said and dipped his hand in his pocket, brought out some gold jewelries and dropped it on the bed. “I thought it wise to give this to you”.

I was shocked to see different gold neck chains, wrist chains, and two wrist watches lying on my white bed sheet. I didn’t know when I said.

“are these not the gold those bandits where looking for?”.

Sly didn’t answer, he stood up dropped a passport beside me and said.

“keep your eyes open and your ears on the ground at all times, else you won’t survive a day here”.

And he walked away, leaving me to my worries.
