Estavanico “Wake Up Chester, The ship is sinking ”shouted Estevanico. “What is happening?” asked, Chester. “The hurricane put a hole in the ship, now get to the rafts unless you want to end up dead.” “There are only 3 rafts and over 300 men, how are we going to fit all of us on the rafts?” asked Chester. “Just get on and we will figure it out”

“Well, I overheard Carranza talking to one of his men before the ship went down, and he was talking about going to Tampa Bay, but now we are off course, so we and the rest of the men are heading west towards Mexico”

“How long is it going to take” Chester asked. “I don’t know, but I do know that on our way, that we will encounter more hurricanes and the Native Americans. Both of them will do serious damage to us.
