The Amulet: A Fictional Narrative
Barely catching the amulet, John fell to the ground. “What did you do!! You could of hurt the amulet!,” Mr. Smith screeched. “Mr. Smith. Why is this amulet so important? Tell me,” John said in a threatening tone. “Hah. You wouldn’t understand!,” Mr. Smith growled. John, quickly eyeing a knife on the table, immediately snatched it. “Oh really? If that’s how it’s going to be, then you don’t mind if I…,” raising the knife in the air, John thrust the it towards the amulet. “WAIT!!!,” roared Mr. Smith. “Are you going to tell us than?,” John said as he waved the knife in the air. “The amulet is a key,” Mr. Smith said in a appealing voice. “A key to what?,” I said as I tried to think of all the possibilities.
“A key to a ship,” he said serious. “A..ship?,” said John in a mocking tone. “Yeah. A.. SHIP!!.” As Mr. Smith thrust a piece of glass at John, the amulet went flying. Mr. Smith, then went flying for the amulet.

They had asked us about everything that happened. I told them the whole truth, besides the facts about the ships, lights, and everything like that. As they took Mr. Smith away, the only thing he kept spouting about was the ship and the amulet. The police thought he was nuts. “So what are you going to do when your parents get home?,” John asked as he waddled over from the paramedics truck. “I’m going to say a crazy man broke into my house,” I said in a sarcastic tone. “Man, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the lights and the quakes from earlier,” he said in a exhausted tone. “I think it was all a reaction the amulet made from the ship being nearby,” I said as I looked at the amulet. “Are you sure about that?,” John asked. “Positive. However, there are things that still bug me,” I said in a worried tone. “So, what are you going to do now?,” asked John in a quizzical tone. “I’m going to find out what all this means,” I said as I looked up at the sky. “Can I come along?,” John asked playfully.

    Suddenly, a glistening flash emerged from the darkness as the ocean tossed Neptune’s Privateer atop the void. “What is happening?” I yelled “We are in The Bermuda Triangle!” said Kipling “Anything could become of us at this point, we may perish or find our way out through a miracle.” Forthwith the vessel sprouted through the raining sky and abruptly fell once more. I am not sure what became of us until the following morning as I awoke on dew dripped grass with specks of sand draped across from my torso to beneath my boots. “Aye, that was an addled idea on me part, forgive me lads.” said Hassett. The crew and I had awoken on the island in which we voyaged to, only it seemed more bizarre than before. “Let us all search this unfamiliar ground, split up in pairs of two.” said Hassett “Alton and I will go to the north, Leopold and Oran will travel to the west, Kipling and Blair will trek to the east, and Denver and John will go…

    The very village was altered; it was larger and more populous. There were rows of houses which he had never seen before, and those which had been his familiar haunts had disappeared. Strange names were over the doors—strange faces at the windows—every thing was strange. His mind now misgave him; he began to doubt whether both he and the world around him were not bewitched. Surely this was his native village, which he had left but the day before. There stood the Kaatskill mountains—there ran the silver Hudson at a distance—there was every hill and dale precisely as it had always been—Rip was sorely perplexed—“That flagon last night,” thought he, “has addled my poor head sadly!”…

    Now, what were you doing out there without your weapons?”. Aira looked at Qrow and said “I couldn't take my weapons out there and create attention to myself and what I found out is the map of mystery, the one you told me about, remember?”. Qrow was shocked since he thought it was only just a myth, a story. Qrow said “You mean the Shinpi map? Where it has a hidden place?”. (Shinpi means mystery in Japanese) Aira nodded and said “they were going to steal it on a rich person's place, but there are only 5 people that are rich but I won't know which one, where they will meet up again”. Qrow thought to himself and said “Okay you go back to your friends and warn them about someone stealing and stay over there I will keep a look out and see if I can follow them without being detected alright?”.

    "You see, yesterday afternoon I had a little tea party – some half a dozen people or so. I have given one or two of them during the season, and they have been quite a success. Some good music – Nacora, the pianist, and Katherine Bird, the Australian contralto – in the big studio. Well, early in the afternoon, I was showing my guests my collection of medieval jewels. I keep them in the small wall safe over there. It is arranged like a cabinet inside, with colored velvet background, to display the stones. Afterward we inspected the fans – in that case on the wall. Then we all went to the studio for music. It was not until after everyone had gone that I discovered the safe rifled! I must have failed to shut it properly! The rubies, Monsieur Poirot, the emerald necklace – the collection of a lifetime! What would I not give to recover them! But there must be no publicity! You fully understand that, do you not, Monsieur Poirot? My own guests, my personal friends! It would be a horrible scandal!"…
