There are seven answers
(see if you can guess em) The One-legged Pirate

The most despicable and evil man ever turned his head around, looked at the rest of his motley crew, and snarled “No man will leave this ship alive until we reach Death Island.” His face had been chiseled be time and he had lost the better part of his leg during a previous campaign. He spat, turned around and hobbled back up to the captain’s deck. They crew bowed in a motion of obeisance (1), but as soon as Captain Jack was out of sight, the mutable (2) crew quickly changed their demeanor and began to grumble and complain about the old slave driver. Captain Jack had a nascent (3) idea that his crew was slowly turning against him and he also he did not trust his first mate, Jon Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi was a calm and able leader that worked with the men on the ship. Then men would rally around him if he called for a mutiny. The men however had a dissidence (4) one night, the argument was over the control of the ship many wanted to put Bon Jovi in control and the others wanted to follow the old captain. Then the Captain performed a great iniquity (5) and hung Bon Jovi for treason.

Bon Jovi’s best friend, Styx the renegade held a meeting an the hold later that night, “Aye! That be the third good man he’s taken from us, I say we make him take a little walk!” “Aye!” cried the rest of the crowd. *The captain could not here the mutts in the hold and he plotted as ever. However, the wily captain had one secret, in his chest lay his inviolable (6) chain, which was the secret of his power. No one except for Bon Jovi knew about the chain, and he was dead. The captain held an improvident (7) speech of the promised land of Death Island but the crew remained unwooed and motley. Epicurean (8) Styx, ever devoted to the pursuit of pleasure finally concocted a plan to kill the evil captain. The plan was to kill him. They were sick of the lack of amenities (9) they had. They attacked but the captain of the ship matched them toe to tip, known for his wanton cruelty he mercilessly slaughtered many good men. Then the only battle worth ever watching happened between Styx and the Captain. However, all of the sudden, the captain’s sacred chain fell off and a gigantic aperture (10) appeared and took the captain to the dark side of the moon, where he died. Styx looked back at the remaining mates and they said, “Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with us!” And they lived happily ever after, until the nineties.
