Mark stopped and looked at the moon which changed shape for a few moments and became like the head of a huge snake with eyes radiating red light.
The suns rays were creeping in from between the clouds changing the night into a bright day. The captain stood at the beginning of the ship then put his hand on the metal railing. He sighed six hours after the young men had departed to their rooms. Then he closed his eyes listening to the sounds of the breeze moving between the snow mountains and next to... The ship and he took a deep cold breath into his chest. For a moment he thought that this calm was equivalent to the most beautiful feelings but he could hardly let out the air that was trapped in his lungs when he heard the sound of a strong bell. No it was not a bell. It was like the vibration of the tail of a resonant snakes tail but rather stronger than it by hundreds of stages.

He shouted at the rest of the young men.
Everyone approached and without the slightest thought they took out much of what was inside but the ship shook strongly as a result of the fall of huge amounts of snow rolling from the surface of the mountain into the water hitting the sides of the ship. Clark placed jacks in the wooden box and then pulled them to burn the box near the wall and then his friends helped him in He pushed the box to the back of the ship on the floor near the water then they opened a door called the cargo door and Clark asked the rest of them to sit inside the wooden box the lid of which had been pierced with many but small holes. Then he closed it from the inside
