The Story Of Solomon O'shot

[Solomon O]

This is my first attempt at a story, tell me if anything needs editing or more attention.

Chapter 1

Solomon O'shot wasnt born in the caribbean like most pirates you here about. Solomon was born on an island in the North Atlantic Ocean. Solomon grew up in a wealthy trades family that traded goods to the sailors that would dock here. At the age of 6 his mother had died. His family now consisted of his dad, sister and himself. Nothing really happened up until a week after his 12th birthday

After his 12th birthday his father died of what the local doctor said was a heart attack. Solomon was adopted into another family. His life had gone from good to bad. Another week after that, Solomon found him on the beach, under the hot sun, watching the huge ship that swayed and bobbed in the water that had docked that morning. He spotted a family friend working n the shallows, casting ropes at the rowboats making there way to shore.

Solomon waded into the icy, crystal blue water next to him. "Where do they come from, and where are they headed" Solomon asked his friend, James Mcrage.
"They are british and they are headid towards Port Royal, in the caribbean" he had replied. This Solomon thought was his oppurtunity to get away from the island and go see more of the world. "Stop wondering yer fool and help me get these fine men to shore" snapped James. Solomon took the rope that was being offered to him and cast it towards a rowboat.

When he had pulled the rowboat in. The leader of the boat, whom also revealed himself to be Captain asked where he could buy local exports. Solomon pointed down the beach, past some trees, to the market and said "There you can find something you might be looking for"
"Thank'ee" replied the captain

Later that day Solomon bumped into the captain again. "Say, have I met you before" inquired the Captain
"Aye," Solomon Said, "My names Solomon sir, it is a honor to meet you"
"Nice to meet you Solomon, my names Captain John Blastgun, you seem to be fond of sailing, would you like to come out to the caribbean with me, but first yer need to ask yer parents" he told Solomon, Solomons mind was racing, this was his oppitunity, he glanced around his home island, at the familiar faces, at his sister. then said "I would love to come, you not be needing to worry about my parents, they had died some time previously" The Captain sent him off to get anything he wanted before boarding the ship La Revanche des Brouillards
