I own nothing!
Enjoy!

...None of them started sailing with the intention of becoming a pirate. That happened later. At first, they were merely ferrymen/women...

Marinette smiled at the sleeping town from her ship. The winter chill doing nothing to dampen her spirits or her plans for the following day.
Apparently, there was going to be a wedding tomorrow, and the groom was a friend of Nino's. In fact, Nino was with that same friend right now, having a bachelor party.
Tomorrow was going to be such fun.

Adrien sighed as he dressed for his wedding. Which was pretty much the last thing he wanted to be doing. Staring at his mirror, Adrien practiced smiling happily, it looked like he'd just been punched in the gut.
He turned around when there was a knock at his door. "Come in."
Adrien's father walked in. "I wish I could say congratulations on finding the perfect girl. But from the look in your eyes, I can tell that's not what happened."
"You could say that that's an understatement."
"Well, I doubt that this will make it any better, but here."
Gabriel handed Adrien a small black box.
"Thanks, Dad, but I already have a wedding ring: compliments of Lila's father."
"It's not for the wedding. It's for you."
"I don't understand."
"Your mother made me promise that I'd give you that ring on your wedding day. It's supposed to bring good-luck."
Adrien stared at the black ring with an emerald paw print as the centerpiece. "...I-I don't know what to say..."
"Just say that you'll wear it today." Gabriel shrugged, "You never know. Maybe it really will bring you the thing you're looking for."
"Of course. Thanks, Dad." Adrien wiped a few tears from his eyes.
"Hey now. No crying today."
"Yeah..."
His father laughed, "Oh yeah. I completely forgot, how did your fiance react to Nino as your best man?"
"She nearly had a fit."
"Good!"
Then the two saw the time. It was nearly time to head to the church. "Well, we best be going."
Adrien sighed, "Yeah."
---
"Mari, are you sure this is going to work?"
"Nope!"
"Thank you for that bit of confidence."
"Nino, stop moving, you're over thinking it. Adrien is one of your best friends, and you are going to his wedding as his best man. It just so happens that we're also going to raid the town looking for the ring."
Marinette finished tying Nino tie and helped him straighten his suit out. He looked every bit the best man.
"There! Finished! Now get to the church."
"Yeah yeah."
"Remember, keep your spots on!"
Nino laughed as he left the ship. Once he was on the dock, he raised his left hand, which held a dark green mask with light green lines all over it.
