The Ghosts from Andy Scott and The Ring of Scots (by Hugh Butland)

Later, when Andy was asleep,the ring rattled and then,out of the mist's appeared III ghosts.Their names were Mary(Queen of Scots),Robert( the Bruce )and Bonnie( Prince Charlie.)"Who is this!"Mary exclaimed,"He must be my uncle,Henry VIII."

"He died in 1547,about 500 years ago!"cried Bonnie Prince Charlie.

"Shut up,both of you."said Robert."We've all been dead for over a century.We clearly don't know who this is,but he is our new carer."

"Look!"cried Bonnie Prince Charlie,"He's alive!"

Andy looked up to stare at these ghosts and instantly recognised them."Mary,Queen of Scots,Robert the Bruce,Bonnie Prince Charlie!"

Bonnie raised his hat.

These are spirits,Andy thought.


"We've come from The Ring of Scots!"chorused the ghosts,still,Andy was enchanted.

Robert began,"The Ring was my creation,after i was killed.I created it as a sacred home to my spirit,and only two people wore the ring :Admiral Johnson's great-great-grandfather(born in 1785,dead by 1852)and your dad.That's why Admiral Johnson is after the ring,but we cannot stop him doing this."(Andy was fuming hot).Robert was looking in fear out to the river.There was a riverboat holding an entire army and the Admiral was on the barge. No sign of Badblood William.

" Hide,Mary . Me and the others will fend them off."

The sound of battle drums echoed in the distance.Pum Parrrra Pum Pum Pum .Robert,Bonnie and Andy grabbed spoons,saucepans and knives;the drum rolls finally mezzo-forte.Soon,the army was in sight."Andie Wandie!"called Johnson,"Come out,come out wherever you are!"
