"Pirates are trash! All they do is ruin other's

lives for their own 'freedom'" a young boy sneers, sitting in a chair at a counter in a small bar.

"Oh, shut your hole boy!" A large, burly man steps up, anger flowing through him. the female bartender Squeaks and rushes from behind the counter to stand in front of the now scared.

"P-please, forgive him he's just a kid" the bartender pleads, tears flowing with pityful voice.

The man grunts and sits back with his crew.

All the while a small crew were watching. Curiosity and a sense of adventure glowing in their eyes.

"You boy, what's your name, lad." A tall man asks the boy. The boy smiles and proudly responds,"I'm Jaxon, and Im the best secret keeper!"

The man snickers, "and what's the biggest one you've kept?"

"My Aunt is the master gunner of the land-!" Jaxon realizes the mistake and turns around and runs into a offical. The offical scowls at Jaxon.

The officer raises a hand to Jaxon.

*bang***

There's a cut on the officials cheek and trickles down his face. Almost everyone's eyes widen but the mystery man and his friends around him.

You could only see the bottom half of the women's face she had a dirty blonde braid running off her shoulders with a straw hat. The only indication that she shot her gun. Was the smoke emitting from my the barrel.

"Hello, Mae." Said the official, raised his thick eye brow.

"Put him down, Apex." The girl called Mae growls at the official called 'Apex'. Mae takes a few steps closer to the man chests almost touching each other and Jaxon shoves behind the women.

"Only if you sleep with me girl." Apex answers. A dark aura surrounds her and the mysterious man's crew grins and their leader stays stoic.

Mae pulls her arm back then swings it right in to the man's nose. He stumbled back his hand reaches to his nose and touches it tenderly, wincing. His face turns red with anger and a tik mark an his forehead.

"How dare you-!,"

Mae's leg swung hitting him hard and he doesn't get back up.

"Mae! Thank you" the boy launches himself at her for a hug. Instead before anything she grabs him by the scruff finally able to see her crystal - white eyes and long thick black eye lashes. Her perfect black eyebrows furrowed in anger. Scowl plastered in her face instantly shut the boy up.

That atmosphere gets colder.

"Jaxon, I told you to never talk about me - To even forget me!" The women says to the boy in a menacing voice and manner, the boy looks, stubborn yet scared as a few drops of sweat rolls down his temples.

She drops the boy and walks off.

Jaxon gets off the ground and smiles at the mysterious man, "Don't worry she's a good person!" The man smirks at the boy.

The Jaxon runs up to the man "here i will get you guys something to eat!" The boy says dragging the man off by the arm the man allows for the boy to pull him along.

"MOMMA!", The door slams open to reveal the woman from earlier at the bar. The man with her son stands in the doorway before being invited in by the woman.

"Hello, what's your name?" the man greets, extending a hand and she takes it enthusiastically giving it a hard shake the man's crew fallows him in. Giving smiles "My names Cynthia, Jaxon's mother." She answers, "And who may you be?"

The man smiles, "My name's Silver," he looks at his crew "And we're the Garcia pirates"

Silvers had shoulder length black hair that fell in soft waves. His piercing blue eyes held a sense of wisdom beyond his years, and a mischievous glint that hinted at his adventurous spirit. With a scar running diagonally over his left eyebrow, uhe had an air of mystery and danger about him. And a stubble against his tan skin

He gestures to his crew of 8 with two beautiful women.

" Hello, I'm Laraunt" says a tall blond shirtless man with a grin "and, the ships doctor."

"Nice to meet ya! I'm Bella!" Says a beautiful tall red haired woman, she has a sword strapped to her back; obviously the swordswoman. she has curvy features.

"Im Drake! The ships cook." A bigger sized man says

" I'm Roger, the navigator here" the curly brown haired man says.

"Please to meet you two lot. I'm Rachel Walls" A tall woman like Bella with a serious look and a scar running across her left cheek introduces herself . She was grace full and elegant aura with short black hair in a bob and golden eyes she had two guns on each waist with a golden design on them.

As they all introduced themselves, Cynthia glanced at her son with a mix of concern and curiosity.

"Mom, I saw Auntie Mae today!" Jaxon chimes.

Cynthia sighs and looks at silvers and his group. "Guessing you saw her as well" she guesses correctly. Silvers nods in response. "My sister always did have a knack for surprise appearances," Cynthia says with a wry smile.

"The woman knows how to make an entrance," Silver chuckles, his eyes twinkling.
