Captain Juliet

The Diamond Thief

 

Excerpts from Captain Juliet The Sirena glided silently back into the thick fog. Captain Tony and the crew didn't know it, but they were moving towards the ruins of the old lighthouse. As they were getting closer and closer, the sound of a bell could be heard. First of all it was very faint, but gradually it got louder and louder. The yacht "Sirena" blew her horn - poo, pooo. Time stopped on the Sirena. Everyone stood still. There was no beginning or end. The crew on board the Sirena were holding their breath waiting for something to happen. Copyright © 2001, Gazi

 

Excerpts from Diamond Thief Juliet looked around and saw the smoke was coming from a block of apartments. She ran to them and sure enough, smoke was seeping from a crack underneath one of the doors on the first floor. Juliet ran up the fire escape until she reached the door. Juliet tried to jump for the doorknob to hold on so that she could ring the doorbell. She was very skilful at doing this. Only this time she couldn't hold on to the doorknob because it was too hot to touch because of the fire inside the apartment. Juliet was desperate. She had to find a way to warn the people inside! Then she saw a window ledge. It gave her an idea. She jumped onto it and carefully walked along the ledge. From there she could jump onto the balcony of the apartment where the fire was. She began meowing and meowing so loudly that she awakened the couple who lived there. Copyright © 2001, Gazi
