Captain Zedraprinadae, or Captain Zed, was with his pirate friend, Samantha, or Sammy. They were sailing to The Edge Of The Sea, which was said to hold much treasure, but none that left for it returned. In the middle of a beautiful sunrise, land was spotted. "Land Hoy, Land Hoy!" the First Mate screamed. Zed just simply nodded, trying to concentrate. He just couldn't though. The fact they were actually going to the Edge of the Sea amazed him, and left him awestruck. Once the ship was parked in the sea, Sammy and Zed went to have a gander, to see if there was any treasure. "Cap'n are ye sure that there be treasure here? I don't see anythin'." "I am sure Samantha. I didn't see any water past this though." "Then we be at the end a the world, Cap'n Z! Let's look around for anything!" Sammy joyfully skipped forward, in that slight gallop skip she had. She gasped in awe when she found a cave.
Zed heard the gasp, and ran towards it, hoping that they weren't going to have to have a scuffle. He saw Sammy and just knew what she was gasping about. It was one of his abilities. He, without being interrupted, ran towards his new destination. Aztec carvings were scattered across the walls, as well as ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. They descended deeper underground. It was occupied though. By the ancient monster Hierotezca.
Slowly, they made a plan. Zed would distract Hiero by using his other abilities. Teleportation and illusion. This would allow Zed to get out of danger. As Hiero turned to get the clone, Sammy would go up behind and assassinate the god. Once they executed Hiero, a green shockwave hit Sammy, making her fly back. She hit the wall and went unconscious. Zed picked her up and got out of the cave. Once he was out he noticed the sky....

... power to Sammy. It was a psychic power. She could go inside the mind of Zed and see if he was actually dead, and if he was she could make him alive. When she got into Zed's mind, she noticed he wasn't dead. In fact all of his major functions to keep him alive were working. Zed wasn't dead. He was just unconscious. Making Sammy think it was completely unneeded to kill the Master Tree.
As she seemed to find, the power she used during Zed's possibly failed resurrection attempt was a different one than the one she was using on the animals. She saw that the resurrection spell ability currently was only able to be used in times of extreme emergency and grief. Her spell that she used on Zed was a resurrection spell. So when the Master Tree said he was far from consciousness, it was just meaning that it couldn't take Zed out of unconsciousness, making him conscious again.
It started when she was hanging out in the arcade one day while her friend, Marissa, played games. Then all of a sudden a frightened woman comes in and hides behind her. She gives Sammy a Sears bag and tells her to meet her back at the mall at 7:00 with the bag. After she leaves, Sammy soon discovers that a baby is inside the bag! When she returns at 7:00, she waits there for three hours but the mother doesn’t show up. The woman specifically told her not to take the baby to the police, so Sammy didn’t.
Sammy was indeed caught between the two worlds that collided one day in the A&P, and he chose to pursue the one that was not his own. He was able to do this when others were not because he understood both worlds, his attitude toward each were completely different, and his actions were drastic enough to cut him free from the bonds that his world had on him. With two paths to choose from and only one to follow, Sammy took the path less traveled in that small town by the sea. He was, to use his own analogy, a wolf in sheep's clothing.

...omach kind of fell as I felt how hard the world was going to be to me hereafter" (Updike 1030). This was the day that Sammy grew up.

Sammy dressed up in a costume for Heathers party and snuck in to Heathers room. In her room, she hooked up a baby monitor under her bed. One day Sammy called Heather and insulted her, and Heather wanted revenge right away. Heather goes to her room and calls Jared, pretending to be Sammy and acting very weirdly. Sammy and her friends recorded the whole call and played it over the school sound system and caught Heather. This did get Sammy in quite a bit of trouble at first, but they worked things out, and Sammy solved one of her cases. Now back to the Bush Man case. By this time, Sammy had spent a lot of time at Chauncy's house, investigating, and asking him questions. She noticed how much he loved books and how many old, and valuable books he had. She asked if the robber took any of his book and after looking for a bit, he knew just which ones were missing. The books that were missing were the ones that his mother had given to him, before she passed. This was just another clue that led them to thinking his brother was the robber, and he wanted the books for the sentimental value. Sammy thought otherwise. She knew exactly where to go to look for ancient books. The book store where her friend, Mr. Bell worked. She knew how much he loved valuable books, and how we was in need of books and money. She investigated and found all of Chauncy's missing books hiding in a drawer under Mr. Bells desk. He was very infuriated when he saw

The Golden Age of Piracy began around 1650, and ended around 1730. Piracy is an act of robbery or criminal violence at sea, but can include acts committed on land, in the air, or in other major bodies of water or on a shore. It does not normally include crimes committed against persons traveling on the same vessel as the criminal. The term has been used throughout history to refer to raids across land borders by non-state agents. A pirate is one who commits robberies at sea, usually without being allotted to do so by any particular nation. The usual crime for piracy can include being hung, or publically executed. Some of the most famous pirates who were killed either because of piracy, or because of natural causes, are Barbarossa, Stede Bonnet, Anne Bonney, Sir Francis Drake, Captain Greaves, William Kidd, Jean Laffite, Sir Henry Morgan, Mary Read, and Giovanni da Verrazano.
The legend of Robin Hood has survived in ballad, book, poem, play, and modern media. The story of Robin Hood has been of great interest among a select group of historians.

After he discovers how his fate has come to be, he devises a very clever plan to escape and get his revenge on all parties involved with his mistreatment. To this date, “The Count of Monte Cristo” is one of the most well-known tales regarding love and revenge. Is the price of revenge worth transforming into the very thing you despise?
The legend of Robin Hood is undoubtedly one of the most well-known tales of all time. Some historians claim that he is a purely mythical figure, while others point to indications that such a person may have existed. Real or not, the English story of Robin Hood and his Merry Men sets forth a captivating tale of a daring outlaw unrivalled in his archery capabilities. The nineteenth century witnessed a boom in the popularity of Robin Hood tales. The English action hero has even found a home at Hollywood and has become something of a movie star in several films, including one released very recently in 2010. Clearly, Robin Hood is one of popular culture’s most enduring folk heroes.
