The prisoners look scared. One of them says, %u201cWe are staying here tonight.%u201dFriday and I wait until it gets dark. The guards fall asleep, and the prisoners are alone under a tree. They are close to us. I decide to talk to them. I get close to them and say quietly, %u201cHello! I am Robinson Crusoe. I am English. I can help you if you tell me who you are.%u201dThey get shocked. After a while, one of them replies, %u201cI am the captain of the ship. Some of my crews are against me. They have the control of the ship now. We are prisoners and they want to leave us here. In fact, two of them controls the others. Most of them are still loyal to me. If we catch the leaders, the others will come back under my control.%u201dI say, %u201cI%u2019ll help you, but I have one condition. If we manage to rescue you and get back to the ship, you will give me the control of the ship.%u201dThe captain agrees. I cut their ropes and they are free now. We return to the forest and I give them guns. We prepare a good plan to catch them. When the guards wake, we shoot them. The plan works well. Two days later, the captain takes his ship back. The captain comes to me and says, %u201cThanks to you and Friday, my ship and passengers are safe now. Thank you for everything. As I promised, the ship is now under your control.%u201dThe captain offers to celebrate our victory, %u201cWhy don%u2019t we have a party tonight?%u201d I accept his offer. The captain gives me new clothes. We eat well and sing all night.38
