Helping Hands, by Bethany
Whitaker Jason had a kind reputation for saving people's lives, when they needed it of course. He also could never do it without the help of his trusty crewmen, of which he named Argonauts. Jason just began torelax in his colorful beach chair, recovering from a previous excursion,when he received an urgent message.Hastily, the message was pleadinghim to set sail immediately, for a king from another land was in trouble.Quickly, Jason ordered his men the hoist the sail, for they were to crossthe great blue Aegean Sea, and from what he could tell that could takeall day.So they immediately set sail and arrived in the kingdom, thereJason approached king Phineas. King Phineas truly claimed that evil Zeus; king of the gods had blinded him. And on top of that, sent his harsh minions, called harpies to do his dirty work and stole Phineas' Succulent food every time he ate. So now Phineas was blind, had no food, and had repulsive harpies attacking him constantly.Jason soaked up this information, considering the numerous possibilities of what he could do. Gathering his capable Argonauts, here quested that they build a clever harpie trap, while telling the 2 special Argonauts who were sons of the great North Wind, to soar high above the massive trees, and keep a sharp eye out for harpies. When one intruded, the sons would chase them far beyond the sea.After two long games of chase, Jason ordered them to collect some scrumptious food for the poor old king. In return, Phineas gifted Jason with a new spectacular ship to sail home in. Ever so grateful,Jason and his huge crew rushed aboard, exploring every nook and cranny in it.A helpful sailor, is a happy one
