![]() 'DEAD men tell no tales!' The younger man wanted desperately to stumble back, but the older man's big hand clamped around his shoulder like a vice clenching a twig. It felt like his bone was about to snap under the man's unbelievable strength. Not just any man he had to reminded himself. This was the man known as Billy Bones... the Pirate King. Tighter and tighter became Billy Bone's fearsome grip. 'Ye must hark unto me well, boy. This be no game ye play. Mark my words well and know that at ye end it may well be a feast for the crows or if they capture ye then this here be ye fate.' The pirate pointed with a single dirty and blackened finger at the putrid rotting corpse hanging in the cage. He was sweating and trembling, he knew. 'Arrr, but the RICHES that reward a man. Aye, and no just gold either. T'be the freedom of the sea, a home in every port, a wench waiting thar, adventure and a life spent WELL.' With this said, Billy spun around the young man to stare into his eyes. Oh, those terrible eyes... 'So what say ye?' With a gulp, 'I'll join you, Billy.' 'And will ye follow me inta tha very gates O hell?' Growled billy, breath all sour grog and tobacco. 'Y-y-y-y-yes' He stammered out. 'Remember ye well then,' whispered Billy Bones, 'DEAD men tell no tales.'
