CHAPTER 3 Blackbeard's Flag
The waiting didn't help our nerves. All night we sat on our boats. The wind sang in the rigging.Every creak and groan of the ship made me reach for my pistol.I drifted off to sleep. I dreamed that pirates were swarming all over my ship.I saw Blackbeard's great bearded face looking down on me.He raised his sword - and I woke up in a cold sweat.
There was someone knocking at my cabin door.

"Drunk!" Munro snorted in disgust. "And they've been like that since midnight."
