“ Captain El Paso’’ cried Frank.

“ What is it Frank! ” roared Mr.El Paso as he came out to see what was going on.

 “A hurricane is approaching any minute now!” replied Frank.

 “ Oh no, Frank tell the others to get inside and buckle up! GO LAD!” Boomed Mr. El Paso, “ This is going to be a long night lad, a long night!”

            A man by the name of Jo-Hann El Paso entered the Annual Monkey Convention of 1998. He walked up to the stage. Jo- Hann had neatly groomed hair, a blue-collar shirt with a tie that had pictures of monkeys all over it. He started his presentation.

            “ I have a theory of a pulchritudinous island called Monkeymotso Island!” Jo-hann said gleefully. He had a deep and strong voice. “ All we need is five strong and brave volunteers to find that island!” Jo- Hann said proudly. Jo-Hann was surprised at the number of volunteers that raised their hands! There were only five people that raised their hands! Their names were Frank, Joe, Danny, Manny, and Chen. 

            So on Friday they waited on the docks of Maui. The ship they ventured on was called The Dragon. It was the cleanest they had ever seen! They started the motor and went of to the ocean of many adventures to be found. During the first hour of sailing Jo-Hann was annoyed by Frank who was telling horrible jokes. Jo-Hann was sitting trying to enjoy his time, but Frank was being a nuisance. Jo-Hann thought, “ Man, oh man, I wish he would shut up right now!”

            Then Frank did it, he said the mother of all annoying things. Frank said annoyingly, “ I saw your underwear captain El Paso!”  Jo-Hann was furious! Then he suddenly blurted out,

 “ SHUT UP YOU IDIOT!” 

That hurt Frank’s feelings deeply. Frank was so angry he quickly went inside the boat and thought to himself, “ Jeez, what a hag. I better get off this boat or that psycho could kill us all!” 

            Later while Jo-Hann was preparing for a rainstorm. He thought, “ Since we are far from the coastline I can teach them how to poach monkeys.” Yes what you heard was true. Instead of Jo-Hann El Paso being a monkey lover he despised those animals. He actually sold monkey made products to make his way to fame and fortune. Later while Jo-Hann was thinking, Frank devised a plan to get rid of Jo-Hann. Frank thought long and hard about his decision. When he finally decided his plan he told the crew. The plan was based on a hurricane bluff, they would tell Jo-Hann a Hurricane is coming and then they would trip him into the water!

             Then they finally put their plan to work the next day. Frank yelled out, “ Captain El Paso!” the other thing that helped Frank plan was that there was a violent rainstorm coming. “ What is it lad!” roared Jo-Hann. “ It is that hurricane! It’s approaching the Dragon!”  lied Frank. “Tell the others to get inside, GO LAD!”  As Jo-Hann was walking back he tripped over rope and fell into the boat’s edge and fell into the water. Then all went black.

            When Jo-Hann woke up he found himself in a tropical island. Monkeys were surrounding them. He realized that he was in Monkeymotso Island! Then his greed made him take out his pistol he tried to kill all the monkeys on the island! “ I will sell you all making me the richest man alive and you dead!” He started to chase them until he reached the central village. His mouth started to water. He found himself tapping his foot to the music of the drums and his taste buds wanting bananas. He wanted rest in this Monkey village. So he made the monkey a deal he would stop poaching the monkeys if he would live in the village. So they agreed and Jo-hann lived happily ever after and thought that he liked his life the way it is, with no more money.
