Michael was in The Pizzeria, as always he can't afford a single thing. He just sat there, wearing his father's hat and his coat. Someone entered, the man had a sailor's hat and two flintlocks at his side, from his back was a silver sword. He went to Michael who was sitting upstairs.Michael always had that calm face, he smiled as he saw the man. It was William Calisto, a sailor from Nova Balreska, a friend of his father.

"Star and Sword can do better." William said

"Sir William, please sit down." Michael replied

"You should get out of this life, raise the white flag like you're father." He implied

"Then get killed by pirates!?" Michael replied in anger

"You're father saved ten men aboard that ship, including me!" William yelled

"But he.." Michael stormed out, the patrons stared as he did so.

Michael stared at the sea. William approached him.

"If you want to honor him, then be a sailor." William implied.

"Fine, if I know he will be happy." Michael replied

"But where am I supposed to get a ship?" Michael said.

"Ill get a crew, you go to Freeport using a fishing boat." William instructed.

"Fishing boat!?" He questioned William

"Yes, there's spare ones on the dock go to Freeport and speak to the Dockmaster, I have a spare ship there." William instructed

He sailed with a fishing boat. He checks his map and prepares  to travel to Freeport. As he sails the wind went with him, bursting him to a fast speed. He smiled as he saw Freeport. He tied the boat once he reached port.

He spoke to The Dockmaster. The Dockmaster led him to a ship, it was a merchant ship armed with small cannons. Meanwhile at the distance William arrived in his Atlas with the crew. William docked near Michael's new ship. The Crew walked out as they introduce themselves.

There was a red haired woman. "My name is Kristina Smith of Fenwick, nice to meet you, ill be your quartermaster." Next was a rather tall man with a privateer uniform. "Karl Ramos, your 

new gunnery officer." Then there was an old man "Richard Martin, head of repairs." There were three gunmen and a two repairmen.  The nine crew moved their luggage to the Marlin, most had to sleep on the poop deck.

"Well captain, where's our course?" Asked Kristina.
