Minecraft: Pirate Bay

Written By Adam Neilson, Callan Robson & Noah Rogers.

Chapter 1: Ahoy Mateys!

It was a normal day in the realm of Minecraft, the non existent birds were chirping, flowers were blooming, on a day like this, kids like Adam and Callan, should be attacked by pirates?

The pirate part will come later, but let's talk about the normal day.

Adam and Callan walked in the Birch Forest, climbed mountains, swimming through rivers and reached the edge of the Birch Forest. They were sitting on a perfectly fine beach. The location they were sitting is right next to where the dock was. Usually, boats would come here to make a pit stop or people come here to catch fish. But rarely, and this only happens once a year, pirates could come by.

One of these two things happened. Can you guess what happened?

Chapter 2: Ships Ahoy!

A pirate ship came along. Adam and Callan started to freak out and tried to run away to not be taken, but TNT was launched from a TNT Launcher. So they needed to hide.

All the pirates hopped of the ship and went to go look for Adam and Callan.

They started to get resources from the Birch Trees and then they mined into a mountain so they can't be found. They could hear the screaming of pirates from inside. It sounded like they were very much near the mountain.

“What are we going to do now?” Said Callan in a terrified voice.

Adam replied, “Let's just stay in here, not cause much noise and ge-”

The mountain soon burst into pieces from the TNT.

“AVAST YOUNG SCALLYWAGS! YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD RUN AWAY FROM US? THINK AGAIN!” Said the captain of the Pirate Ship. The two boys got tied in rope, dragged to the ship and the ship sailed off.

The boys soon blacked out.

Chapter 3: Who are you?

After getting on the ship, the boys woke up and they were very confused.

(Confused as chickens they were.)

“Who are you?” Said both in a serious voice.

Nobody replies and the ship keeps sailing.

“Okay… So, what's the purpose of this?” Adam asked.

The bird heard and said a very loud call that attracted the people on the ship..

“SQUAK!” to them and all of the pirates started to get rough. They did this because whenever that bird made a call, it meant that danger was coming.

When they were getting near to their location, the head captain started to talk to Adam and Callan.

“Good morning scallywags, I’m Captain Kallyback. We are apart of the Oracle Pirate gang. We take strangers like you and hire them for no apparent reason.

Before you open your mouth, we have highly guarded individuals who can slice your heads off at any time. The current location we are heading too is Pirate Bay, the main location for Pirates and all their loot. Now, have fun with this sleeping gas and we’ll see you tomorrow.”

Both boys fall asleep from the gas and they start to slowly wake up the next day.

Chapter 4: Week I

The next day, both boys wake up to a loud call by tons of parrots within the area, All the captured people there get out of their tents and they get to the front line. Since it was the boy's first day, they got a reminder from the Captain. Both of them were confused but they followed the program.

One week in, the boys were tired. They wanted to get out immediately. But they had to figure out a plan.

“Lets try going into camouflage and try sneaking into one of the boats to escape back.” Said Callan.

Adam agreed and they sneaked into the dress area and got some camouflage on. They soon went into the bush to escape.

Chapter 5: The Great Escape

The place was completely silent at night. If you made a sound that wasn’t sleep talking or reacting to something, you would be thrown into the shark pit for 5 minute because you're, “causing disturbance”. So everyone stays silent as amiba.

When both of the boys reached the beach, they both saw boats in the area.

“I bet we can use these to escape pirate bay and get away for good.” Adam said.

“Good Idea.” said Callan.

They both sailed off, but soon after, The alarm was tripped by the Captain and all the first line of defense came out to find both Adam and Callan. They set sail on their ships to go find them.

Chapter 6: The Aftermath

Adam and Callan reached the shore. They ran, and ran, and ran. They found a shelter and hid in there for a few hours. To make sure the pirates couldn’t find them. This time, their plan worked and they managed to get away.

But this led… to even more drama...

Science Experiment Explanation.

LAB-12 Science Experiment #6 - Vinegar Volcano.

---

Scientists at LAB-12 have been conducting experiments on wacky stuff like quicksand and chemical reactions. The experiment Scientist Adam and his partners did was on chemical reactions to Baking Soda mixed with Vinegar to make a Volcano.

The volcano was made by combining certain ingredients into a container to create the result we wanted which turned into a bubbly mess when put into different containers.

---

The End Result

Our end result was a bubble like fizz result which smelled, weird… We also touched our result and we found out that some of the baking soda hasn't even dissolved into the result yet which still leaves some of the baking soda left.

---

Different Sizes, Different Results

As we said earlier, when we tried different containers, we got different results like overflowing which did happen when we tried a little container which was supposed to hold our baking soda. And let me tell you, it was a pretty messy experience.

---

What causes this?

When the vinegar collides with the baking soda, both of them react to form gases of carbon dioxide, then it rises to the surface like how it does in beverages like soda.

---

How we do it / How to do it.

You will need the following items to do this experiment.

1. A container which can hold a considerable amount of baking soda and vinegar.
2. The amount of baking soda you're using.
3. The amount of vinegar you're using.

Now, these are the instructions for the experiment.

1. Pour the baking soda into the container.
2. Pour the vinegar into the container.
3. Watch it overflow, fizz or blow!

---

So, I think everybody in LAB-12 had a fun time doing their lab experiments. Now, if you excuse me, I have to go clean up the baking soda and vinegar me and my fellow scientists made.

Adam Coopa's And Noah's Questioning.

Before Reading (Adam & Coopa)	Golden Eagle: What does it look like? How is it so fast? How did it get it's name? Does it have parts that look like gold or coloured gold? Canada Goose: Is the Canada Goose really from Canada? A: It is native to Canada but it does live in other parts of the world like the U.S And New Zealand. Does it behave like a normal goose? A: It does. Just like any old goose. Bee: Can bees go faster than 14 kph? Can bees live without hives? A: Yes they can. Can bees go over big puddle sizes? A: As long as they don’t go into impact too many times with the water, then yes. Cheetah: Can any land animal get up to the cheetahs kph/speed? (Currently 100 kph) A: No. But flying animals go way faster.
During Reading (Adam + Coopa)	Are some animals unable to get to their in their normal way? Cheetah: How slow can Cheetah’s go in short distances? Golden Eagle: What makes the Golden Eagle so acrobat? Fishes: What is the fastest fish? What is the smallest fish that can go fast? How does a fish go fast or slow?
After Reading (Adam + Coopa)	How are the animals different in movement? What makes them move in their unique ways? How is the soft and house spider so slow?
Before Reading - Matariki Returns (Adam + Noah)	How is matariki returning? A: The 7 stars of matariki are coming back together. How did it get it's day? Why is matariki celebrated? A: To celebrate the Maori New Year. Does it involve other cultures? A: Yes. The matariki stars can be seen from other countries. In the ancient greeks, the matariki was named the Pleiades.
During Reading - Matariki Returns (Adam + Noah)	Are there side effects to Matariki? A: If the stars become faint, hazy and barely visible, it will become a cold lean season. If they are bright enough to see, it will be a good season.
After Reading - Matariki Returns (Adam + Noah)	How can we celebrate matariki? A: We can celebrate with our family, friends and school. Just get involved and Why did the author write this article? A: To tell us what matriki means to us and what it really means.
Name of Article	Elephant Toothpaste
Noticing	It's pretending to be a lab. It has a letter from a zoo company It's in a room. Ita LAB 7 instead of Room 7. They have poppies on their shirt. Foam is coming out of the bottle. They’re questioning each other. They’re all touching it There is a person trying to touch an elephant. Materials are on a plate. They’re coming up with ways and solutions.
Before Reading Questions	How will they come up with a solution? A: They studied into all the ingredients to see what they could use out of it. Why were the kids so interested in the end result/chemical reaction? A: They were fascinated on what they created in the end.
During Reading Questions	How will the yeast work? A: When mixed warm water, the yeast can be combined with chemicals from the dishwasher liquid to make a foam like substance. Does the toothpaste work? A: The elephants say they love it in the end of the article. If they wanted to make more, would the same recipe work? A: No matter how much of the ingredients you use, it will still come out with the same result. Why was the yeast and water mixed for only 60 seconds? A: To make sure it was mixed good enough for the chemicals to do it's job.
After Reading Questions	Why was the class turned into a lab? A: All the students inside were doing some serious work with some chemicals and reactions. A: Did the students make a electric toothbrush? Did the dishwasher liquid help? A: Only a few bubbles appeared at the top, it also helped to make the fizz effect at the end.
