Marine101: A Pirate101 AU

Episode 1: Memories and Tears! Doing the first mission

It was a gloomy day in Seala the air was cool with sadness in the air, Daniel was standing over his fathers grave with a small tear in his eye. It's been three years since his father was killed in battle with a pirate, although the pirate is long gone he still holds a bad grudge against them. He goes to the Marine academy not only to train but to do missions, it was his fathers last wish for him to advance to sail in the skyways. Grand General StarSwimmer runs the academy to train the future marines in battle, although he doesn't look the most fit he does have great battles under his belt. He left the lobby after talking to the king and queen of Seala, it seems that more pirates have stolen from the royal family. This time I think they have had enough of the pirates coming to their realm, they will not allow them to steal another priceless jewel from the grand chapel.

Coming to his chambers most of his students were out doing their duties, Daniel will go on is first mission today to check out the Everglade Valley. That's a small village not far from Seala so he'll do a little walking, but believe me there is a pirate causing trouble for the little village there. Calling Daniel to his office he began to tell him of this situation, it was urgent the people there were scared stiff of this person.

|Daniel today you will be going on your first mission my boy, this task you will have to deal with the pirate know as The Ripper. My other students are out hunting pirates that our criminals back at Seala, oh now that Ripper is back I don't have many students to deal with him now. I see that you are really ready to et started on this mission, if your father was here to see this he would be so proud. I understand that he got killed by a shot in the back young marine, but don't let your anger get the better of you young one. I have your partner with you his name is Chun-Hu he will aid you, I also have another friend name Madam Jeanne Stormsmith she is out there also.| Saluting to the grand general Daniel set out with his new partner in toe. Although he was a bit nervous about this mission he had to do, Daniel wanted to make his father proud that he joined the marines.

Going into the village he found the people were waiting for him, going into the town he spotted Jeanne Stormsmith standing in town looking around impatiently

|There you are I was getting worried about the grand general, well enough of this we have a lot of work to do around here. Ripper is somewhere near the coast not far from here, I know he has his men protecting the area. That place is full of pirates you'll have to do some fighting there, yet with your training at the academy I don't see a problem here. Be careful Ripper is a tricky one I can tell you that, he will do anything to win in battle when you duel him. Don't waste time now go out there and give him what for, come back to me when you defeat him. Then I shall have a little peace of mind.| Following orders he went to the coast to find Ripper's hideout. Chun-Hu was skilled with hand to hand combat Daniel can learn a thing or two, yet getting to know each other will help them create a bond like brothers.

Finally reaching the coast they noticed some ships standing at a makeshift port, Rippers here they have to be careful not to get spotted. Daniel really want to fight them so they could feel his pain, yet Chun-Hu want Daniel to cool down before their battle. He was told about his past by the grand general, how is father died was quite gruesome indeed. You see his father Andrew Willowsmith went to the academy as well, for many years he was a great warrior fighting to keep Seala safe from pirates. One day he got a mission from the grand general to help out a friend, Deacon was captured by a pirate when is ship got surprised attacked by it's crew. Andrew was sent to rescue his good friend from those fiends, little did he know that this would be the last time they would ever meet. The air was quite cool with gloom and sorrow within it, Andrew wasn't afraid to die nor what waits for him beyond the worlds. The only thing he was worry about was his friend Deacon getting destroyed by the pirates captain, yes this captain was the father of the swashbuckler we will meet later on in the story.
