’cause of
you,
” said Tall Boy. “We saw you pointing up at the sign in front of the art shop, and that made us look.”
“But Stink heard
you
saying ‘
X
marks the spot’ at the graveyard, so he followed you,” Judy said. “That’s how we found the hourglass.”
Smart Girl looked at Scurvy Sam. “Can we?”
“I’d be mighty honored to have two more pirates aboard, me beauty.”
“You mean it?” asked Smart Girl.
“I swear it, in the name of Davy Jones.”
“Okay, you can come,” said Stink. “But only on one condition.”
“What’s that?” asked Tall Boy.
“You have to clean the poop deck!” said Stink.
“Arrgh!”
moaned Tall Boy and Smart Girl.
“Kidding!” Stink said, and everybody cracked up. Stink laughed the loudest — a laugh that could be heard on the wind, across the seven seas, and back again . . . a laugh that was sure to haunt Pirate Island for years to come.
