It was a rainy night. It was 1 o'clock am. A man walked into a small tavern. His long black hair and black jacket was drenched in water. He sat down at a bench and looked at the beer. "Bar tender...give me your hardest."
A young woman sat on the porch of a very large house. She sighed as she looked at the ocean from above. her father was the greatest father of the time...but...she missed him dearly...

The bartender walked up to him pulling out a shot glass and set it infront of him pouring him something to drink " you new here?"
at the other end of the bar a woman had been watching him, she had a scar on her right eye and wore a red samurai like kimono. She sipped her beer then stared over at her other side that once had an arm long ago...

The woman stood and sighed. She hated that he father was gone so much...

The woman too another sip from her beer then reached over for her katana and stood up heading towards the enterance holding it close to her side.
Felicia walked over to the door and stared down at her daughter with a frown on her face " are you alright sweety?"

The man looked at the woman and frowned. "What about that lass? She have a problem or somethin?"
Cho looked at her mother she shook her head. She would only talk on a blue moon...She was 16 now...

" no... she just um... doesnt care too much for strangers I guess" he glanced over towards the ship " you arent pirates are you?"
The woman walked out and glanced towards the ship with a glare " pirate trash..."
" Cho..." she sighed walking over and took her hand " you upset about your dad being gone?"

" where you from boy? This is the first time ive seen you in this bar" he stared at him oddly.
Slowly she started heading towards the ship, she was going to figure what was going on... her parents where killed by pirates and she lost her arm to them. Since then shed sworn to keep them away from this port...
" want me to call him and tell him to come home?" she asked smiling at her daughter

Akio shrugged. "I just be sailing for 5 years, no real house...no real place to go. But I know my lass be here on this port...just have to find where. You heard of the Gainsboroughs? They be living here now yes?"
Cho shook her head. "No...if he cared...he would have comes back..." She took her hand from her mothers and walked inside.

"Aye...thank you sir. If i pay you a few gil, would you watch me ship for the night?"
Cho walked up to her room, passed her brothers and sat on the bed. It wasn't easy being the middle child...she wasn't the middle...untill Akio left.

"aye...thank yee." He slammed down a bag of gil and walked out to the port. He saw the woman looking at his ship and frowned. "hey there lass, yee stay away from me ship. I ask no trouble from yee. I just be a humble lad, you know?"
Cho didn't answer. She walked to her window and looked out.

She looked back glaring at him " ones with Pirate blood of any kind have no business here" she said gripping his katana.
Brandon frowned watching her... she never spoke to him...

He smiled. "Now, now lass. Don't be bitter on them pirates. I might be blood, but I ain't no ship rat. You stay away from me boat, I be no threat here lass."
Cho sighed as she watched the port. She blinked suddenly when she noticed a new ship.
