NR.3 EMIL Captain Emil - Emil's adventures on the high seas.

When I got into my this morning magic slime grabbed, I had no idea that I should have become a pirate. I had landed on a huge barge with twelve men who stank to high heaven. We'd been criss-crossing the ocean all morning. When the first storm caught me by surprise, I turned green like an alien. Only gripping the magic slime kept me from throwing up over the rail. I had hidden the slime under my hat on my head. It was a huge hat. Beads and silver plates hung from leather straps. 

"Captain Emil!" one of the pirates shouted at me. 

"Laaaaand siiiiiiiight!" yelled another with strawberry blonde hair.

Not only had I landed on a pirate ship, I was also the captain of that crew. 

"Prepare for anchor!" I called back, standing at the helm of the big ship. 

We headed for an island where treasure was hidden. The pirates told each other adventurous stories about a monster that was watching over the treasure.

Bones, a small man with a hole in his shoe and an eye patch, looked at me with a big grin "Aye Aye Captain!" 

As soon as we docked the small wooden dinghy on the bright sandy beach, we could hear it. A thunderous roar came towards us from the jungle stretching behind the beach. Bones jumped into the arm of a tall, skinny pirate, screaming. His screeching was so loud it was ringing in my ears. 

“Bones, you stinking bilge rat. Get lost. And at a hog gallop.” 

"Sailors!" I shouted. »Get ready for a sword fight and then we'll get the doubloons!« The Klabautermann was supposed to get me, the monster that just came running through the jungle in our direction with a huge roar was now directly in front of us. Loud laughter went through the ranks of my crew. Bones straightened his clothes and pulled his hat down over his face.

The monster was less than a meter tall, it was purple and had fluffy fur. Crimson, large eyes looked at us from this tangled mess of fur. 

"Oh, you're a cutie," said one, grinning toothlessly. 

"Are you trying to scare us away with your cuteness?" asked another. 

I went on that Monster holding out my hand for him to sniff at me. Suddenly, it opened its mouth, revealing three rows of sharp, yellow teeth. A thunderous roar came from his mouth before purple slime shot out of him, pouring out over all of our heads. We were stuck. none could move. Our feet were glued to the ground, our arms to our bodies. The crowd ran down heavily on us. I had to somehow get at the magic slime under my hat. The monster stared at me, belched, turned and disappeared back into the jungle. With all my strength I had managed to loosen my arm. The slime pulled purple threads as I guided it to my hat. As I reached into my slime, I clenched my eyes and wished that he would set us all free. Like a green cloud it oozed out of the jar and got bigger and bigger until it covered us all and pushed the purple monster lime away from us. It disappeared into the sea behind us, singing and soundless. 

"Phew, lucky you." Everyone applauded and cheered. 

"Now let's get the treasure, men!" I called to the crew and they all ran into the jungle. 

The treasure should be hidden in a cave in the jungle. We found him quickly and carried him on board before the monster could suckle us up again. The pirates sang happy songs while we opened the chest and a huge mountain of gold shone out at us. I reached in and the solid nuggets turned into a wonderful smelling golden slime. Small gold pearls crackle inside him. I closed my eyes, squeezed it in my hands and when I opened my eyes I woke up in my childhood room.
