Still wearing their balky life vests, Jack and Anne sat at the longbench at the front of the table. Many of them stared at them withcuriousity. The professor smiled and captain did not looked happy.

What we have for lunch? Anne whispered to Henry.
The usual. Henry said sighing. Salted meat, pickles2, dry biscuits.
This is not good. Thought Jack. He was right.
When they were served, they could hardly look at their food, muchless to eat it. He was thirsty though. So he reached for his cup andtook a long sip3 of water.

Jack and Anne almost slid off thechairs, without any sign, nervousless, the officers and scientistsstood up and hurried up out theroom. As if they knew just one thingto do in bad way together.
I will take you down the hole. Henry said to Jack and Anne. we willwait there until the waves calm down.
The ship peached violently, as they stood up from the table, holdingon the to backroom, their live vasts, Henry stared at Jack and Anne,out the world room. Jack nearly swept on the floor. He speared feetacross some socky biscuits and pickles, he tried no to think about it.
All in the dark hall, the wind hauled9 down the stair wall to the topdeck. Spring them all with ocean fown.
I must go to secure me lab. Henry shouted to Jack and Anne.
He pointed10 to the stairs, go down one more flat and I will join youwhen I can.

It’s better to be safe. Said Henry. Followed the others! Quick! Comesoon!
Henry unlocked11 the door to his lab, and disappeared inside.

He grabbed Anne’s hand and crawled pulled her toward the fairwell,officers and sailors heading down ahead of them. Jastas Jack andAnne started down, the ship lurched again, Jack stomach lurchedwith it. He covered his mouth,I am definitely going to be sick. He thought. He really didn’t want towalk through the upstairs or from the captain with others.
You go down, beno right there. Jack shouted to Anne.
Why? Where are you going? Anne yelled12.

Then he wald around and charged up two fight steep steps to thetop deck. When Jack stepped on the deck, the rain was pumping.
The wind was howling. The waves look like dark mountains. Seefonud must blowing everywhere. Jack knew at once he had met amistake.
Better to be in berust, than drown. He thought.
Just as he turned back to the steps, Anne burst onto the deck,Jack! He cried. What are you doing? Jack forgot all aboutthroughing up.
I made a mistake. He shouted. We should not be up here. Go downI am coming with you. We have to go back down.
He pushed Anne toward the stair way. A giant wave crushed overthe side of the ship, Jack fell and slipped form the fun covered deck.
It was impossible to see anything, the wind was squirming, Jacktried to stand, but whirl13 was let fast, he couldn’t stand up and fromhis feet, Jack finally held himself up, but just as he did, the othergiant wave pull break over the side of the ship, the ship rolled again.
