"I like this, it has potential" San said, looking at his captain, Hongjoong. As a sailing master he was in charge of navigation and piloting. It such a hard work to handle and not all men willing to take this role but San was forced to take it before he commit to become a pirate crew. He lived with his grandfather, left by his both parents and need to pay a lot of debt, if not because Hongjoong save him when he almost died, he wont be here as a pilot and repay his debt.
"I too, liked it" leaving a smile. He turn his attention to the person in charge, this man busy calculating a possible amount for the ship. Its big and sturdy, all the equipment are well choosen, giving the best quality to conduct but who know his luck are being attract by a bunch of pirates, trying to rip him off. At first his intention is to attract the royalty to buy ship from him, so he spread the words to every shop, boasting about his skills. But this news are heard by San so he sat within his table listening to all of his story.
"Dear customers, its a good ship indeed. I can give you only this price"
"How come? i heard you sold a bunch of ship, thats why you are well known. your're good that good " Yunho smile and pat the person head. Shiver by his action he drop the amount until 70% and only care about his life more than ship.
"Who cares?! I own ten fucking ship and i can sold more than this ugly ship. You take it! Take it! Pay this price and leave me alone" he said.
Hongjoong laughed and instruct Hwa to drop all the gold coins on the table leaving the man in raving mad.
They walk out the bar, and get ready to sail the ship away. San take deep breathe and hold the helm and direct the ship to their destination.
"San-ah" Hwa called him, "Captain said its the Black Sea" leaving San to take charge of his duty.
Inside the ship, the cabin are made for the captain. Hongjoong spread the map and look carefully to it. The map are large, covering the whole table, the material is not some kind of paper that easy to torn but the map itself are carve on the animal skin. Hongjoong touch the surface, checking his next direction. His map had two mark on it, showing he already reach the destination.
"Based on the weather, we can't reach the Black Sea in 7 days. We should stop somewhere to lay low first, after the rain had subdue then we can continue our journey" said Hwa. He is Hongjoong First Mate, second to the captain. a wingman. an important person, looking at Hongjoong wide back become serious as he said those words.
Hwa met Hongjoong when he was in castle, 3 years ago when he was 17. The king was cruel, capturing all the kids as his good intention but the truth is only for his lust. Back then, he almost one of the victim, but Hwa was a smart boy. Through the years he spent on the castle, he studied a lot of books, spending most of his time in the library creating plan to sneak out of the palace. When the time arrive, he finally escape it but the whole guards are haunting him down.
He ran as far as he can until he encounter Hongjoong who was buying sword on the market. Hongjoong raised his eyebrow looking at the person who stumble upon him. He notice the boy almost out of breathe and afraid, so he look to the small passage and saw guards searching for him, he laugh and walk to the men.
"I want to try this sword. That person said this sword is made from a very very rare material. If i could kill all four of you then its true, but if not i will kill you" he said and finish his word looking at the merchant.
Hwa look at this person, he almost the same age of him but the way he speak had no terrified in him. His hair is neat in blonde color, holding the sword with his black gloves and tighten his grip. Alert by his position, Hwa move to the side and watch the person fight. It was merciless, in every sliced he create he left with a laughter, people watching and almost feel a goosebump when hearing the laugh. They all suddenly hide themselves not wanting to create any distrubance but still peeking throught the door.
"Slash!" The last strike were finish, leaving the guard's head separate from his body. Hongjoong laughed, wiping the remain blood on the guard's clothes. Hwa look at him and was speechless from the action.
"So its true, its has a good balance sir. Now please spare me for your mercy!" The merchant begged. Hongjoong rolled his eyes and look to Hwa, he notice this boy in front of him almost lost his voice upon seeing him fight.
"You.. my name is Hong Joong. Nice to meet you" he smile and walk away but then he notice the boy grab his hem of shirt looking at him.
"Please take me," he said.
