Mountains of the moon

The two Europeans, Richard Burton and John Speke had many expectations and hardships that faced in the Continent of Africa. They started out in Somalia and went west to the middle of Africa that's where they met their most fears. But as they sailed to Africa, they saw Africans working to bring the goods of Africa to sail it to Europe. As they traveled they camped in the desert to rest for the night. As they were sleeping they were ambushed by a tribe with spears and shields. Richard and John fought against them but there were to many. So they had to escape, luckily Richard Burton escaped but with a spear through his mouth. John was captured and tied up on the sand floor. John escaped the next mourning but before he escaped, the tribe stabbed his legs and arms for great amount of pain.
Richard and John found each other but went back to Europe to fix Richards mouth. They finally came back for another trip and left to the middle of Africa. Richards mouth was fine except for some missing tooth's. The two bumped into a big tribe that wanted him to come to the King for an invite. They had to bring gifts for the king (which they had to or they would get killed) as they approached him dressed as proper as they can, holding the England flag. The king saw the gifts but did not know how to use them. Richard showed him the small pistol and how it works.
The tribe got really scared, because they did not know what was the weapon. The king loved him and accepted him as a visitor. They had a party and had a lot of fun. John did not participate in the party but traveled a little more to see if they have found the Lake Victoria ( they named the lake, lake victoria, because their Queen was named Victoria and they wanted to name the lake after her). He did but Richard did not want to leave. He wanted to go back home because the monsus would come (The rainy season).
John went hunting for animals and he put the gun on the side and suicide himself. He died in 1890 during the time Richard was doing his speach. He was telling his adventures in the National Geographic Confrence. But he didnt finish when he herd his beloved friend died from that disaster.
