Aliens, Pirates & Cowboys

Pirate Galleon had to be one of the most pigeon-toed pirates who always had his mind in outer space. His huge brimmed and brown pirate sunbreo hid clumps of dark brown hair that would have been considered to be dreadlocks in places in the Caribbean such as Jamaica, however, the real reason why Pirate Galleon's hair was clumped was that he had stopped combing his hair the moment after he left his parent's house in a small village in Wisconsin at the age of fourteen years old. His hair would dance in clumps around his waist and become a part of his clothing a cloth shirt that looked like a sack, a brown weathered leather vest, and denim jeans that were tucked inside black cowboy boots with white stitching. Pirate Galleon was the head of his clan with Cowboy Joe as Pirate Galleon's understudy, Cowboy Joe being a rotund balding man that dressed similar to Pirate Galleon, just in larger sizes, and Cowboy Bill where if you flashed forward more than a century later, was a look-alike to William Shatner from the TV show Star Trek.

Pirate Gideon had left the small village in Wisconsin and roamed all over the world with Cowboy Joe, and Cowboy Bill. When Pirate Gideon was a child, about a year before he left his hometown and his parents, he had a dream that he would die from an alien spaceship landing on earth. Little young Pirate Gideon had woken up screaming, as he could feel in his dream and sense the reality of an alien spaceship landing right on the little farmhouse where his family lives and instantly killing Pirate Gideon and his entire family.

Pirate Gideon's father beat Pirate Gideon almost black and blue because the screams of the child in Pirate Gideon had woken him up. It took three months for the bruises that Pirate Gideon suffered from the blows from his father to heal, and nine more months after that for Pirate Gideon to train every single day to be tough. He would pick up large rocks on the farm and run with them. He would climb high trees and jump down from amazing heights right on his feet. He started beating up older and stronger children at the schoolhouse and this is when they threw them out of school and told him not to return for the following year after the summer session of school started and it was time for the children to help their parents with their farms. Although Pirate Gideon had grown strong, he still greatly feared his father and the blows that he had suffered months ago because of his father. It also was not the first time his father had beaten Pirate Gideon, and one thing Pirate Gideon knew was that it was not going to be the last.

That day right after school and Pirate Gideon was thrown out, he gathered a few things from the farmhouse where he lived and left his home first thing in the morning so at least he would have daylight on his side to discover what he was going to do with the rest of his life.

One thing Pirate Gideon realized right away as he spent weeks sleeping in open fields and covering himself with a tarp if it rained during that summer, was that he needed money to achieve his dreams and to beat his father. The only way he could figure out to make money was when he read a book about pirates finding treasure and decided to rename himself Pirate Gideon and become a pirate. The thing is that every pirate needed a crew, so his next mission in the autumn of that year when he was fourteen years old was to find a crew.
