Day 6 - Houdini (part 1)

This is the first of a four part story, given that it's fairly long. This was written a few years ago but its one of my favourite stories. I've always had a passion for writing fantasy, although it's difficult to cultivate in a short story framework owing to the need to provide the reader with a foundation to the fantasy element. However given the fantasy element to this story is a pirate ship, which most children are able to visualise, I was able to get round adding too much exposition.

I actually visualised this story as the first of a series of fantasies that my protagonist dreams up for herself. I may well write more, I don't know, I'll just have to wait and see.

Enjoy
