Kirito's Pov
I was still a bit confused as to how Orick even knew where to find us? Also how did he know Eugeo was on this ship? I knew Aiko was probably going to question me about how I got the tattoo if I didn't kill an elf, which means I'll have explain everything to him, he seems trustworthy.... I think. I was sitting at my desk just looking at the map, since Renly is asleep we don't know where we are going, until he wakes up we'll have to stop somewhere. As I was looking at the map, Eugeo walked into the room with some food "I noticed you weren't eating so I got some food for you" he explained, I smiled "thanks" he put the food on the desk next to the map "have you figured out where we are going yet?" He asked, I shook my head, he sighed and dragged a chair to beside me, he sat down and looked at a map, I looked at his arm and saw the cross in his wrist again, I looked away, I can't believe I left him like that.... I shook the thought away, Eugeo seemed notice me staring "what?" He asked, I looked down "u-um.... you don't have to tell me but... how did you get that scar?" I asked pointing at the scar on his wrist, he looked at it for a moment, he sighed "um... I don't really like talking about it" he answered, I nodded "right, that's ok" I looked at the map, my eyes widened, there was an island on the map that started glowing, it was glowing green "Mist Island?" I mumbled, Eugeo looked at it as well "could Renly be trying to lead us there?" He asked, I thought for a moment, I've never heard of someone being able to do that "possibly.... unlikely but.... we should check it out, it will take about two weeks to get there" I answered, he nodded. Aiko walked into the cabin "Kirito we need to talk" he demanded, I sighed "yeah.... ok" I looked at Eugeo "you can stay, I did say I'd tell you about Sachi" I said, Aiko crossed his arms "alright we're listening" he spoke. I sighed "ok...."

Flashback
I was 17 and walking around a small town, my crew and I decided to stop here to resupply our ship, as I walked around I noticed the town looked pretty empty, I kept waking around till I saw a bunch of people in the centre of town, they were making a big circle around this guy holding a whip, I heard the sound of the whip cracking against something and what sounded like a girl screaming, the people were cheering, I quickly rushed through the crowd of people to see what was going on, when I got to the centre I was shocked. There was an elf girl on the ground, she was wearing a ripped white button up shirt and a long black skirt, her hair was a very dark blue. The guy with the whip laughed as he lifted it again, I rushed forward as he went to hit the elf again, I grabbed the whip as it hit my hand instead of the girl, the crowd gasped "leave her alone!" I yelled, I pulled the whip away from his grip, I glared at him "who are you,?!" He asked, I smirked "Kirito, Captain of The Liberty" I answered bowing, he got out a sword, I quickly got out my sword and blocked his quick attack, as he attacked me and I blocked I decided to try and talk with the elf "are you ok?! Can you stand?!" I yelled, she slowly got off the ground and stood up though it was very obvious she was in pain "yeah" she answered. I jumped back away from the guy and put my sword away, I picked her up princess style "I said I can stand!" She yelled, I began to run "yeah but you can't run!" I yelled back, she went quiet. I kept running from the people who were chasing me. I got to a cliff and jumped, she held onto me while closing her eyes, I landed in the water at the bottom, I kept both of us under the water for a little bit until I felt like they thought they lost us. We both got our heads out of the water, she was still holding onto me "you can let me go now" I reassured, she shook her head "I can't swim" she mumbled, I sighed and swam to the small beach with her holding onto me, we both got onto the beach, I stood up and brushed the sand off, the girl stood up as well "are you crazy?!" She whisper yelled, I thought for a moment "yeah, probably" I answered, she seemed shocked "y-you just saved an elf from being killed for magic, you'll be wanted now!" She added, I nodded "yep, I'm already wanted so, meh" I walked across the beach "if you want to stay alive I suggest you come with me" I told her, she quickly followed me "so what's your name?" I asked, she stared at the sand "Sachi and yours?" I smiled "you didn't hear it when I saved you? It's Kirito" I answered. Sachi seemed a bit worried but she didn't really have another choice but to follow me "if you want you can join my crew, we are pirates.... or you could stay on my ship till I get you home" I spoke up, she looked at me shocked "y-you could really get me home?" She asked, I nodded "if that's what you want" I answered, she hugged me "thankyou!" She cheered, I smiled and hugged her back "then.... I promise I'll get you home Sachi...." I whispered, she nodded.
