Chapter 1: Namur meets Aurora

This was a small town located in the New World. A small town that the Whitebeard Pirates choose to make as one of their many docking places. The townspeople were civil and welcomed them with open arms and in return the Whitebeard Pirates made sure to help out if trouble arose.

A normal day for the pirates where they could wander around town and do as they pleased. Some went to pub for a drink whilst others stay aboard the ship. The commander for the 8th division walked along the beach, stopping to look at the ocean every now and then. He didn't mind being in town with the others and even though they had chosen the town and gotten to know the townspeople he was still aware of the looks that he received. Being a fishman had its share of disadvantages at times. His attention was caught by a sudden melody coming a couple of feet away from him. Curiosity peaked he trudged over to discover a young looking female perched upon a rock and looking out at the ocean. Her curly hair danced around her face as she hummed her tune to the ocean before her. An aura of peace and tranquillity surrounded her and the fishman found himself walking just a little bit closer. The melody stopped when his foot stepped upon a shell breaking her midway. Dark brown eyes turned to look at him in surprise.

"Hi," she gently greeted him.

"What are you doing here alone?" She laughed and turned to look back the ocean.

"I'm not alone. Got my friends in the ocean to keep me company." Silence developed the two of them.

"Aren't you one of the Whitebeard Pirates?" Her gaze returned to look at him, taking in his outfit and the tattoo situated on the left side of his neck.

"Yeah, Namur commander of the 8th division."

"Nice to meet you Namur, I'm Aurora." He nodded in greeting. She had to be the first towns person who didn't show any sign of being uncomfortable having him around.

"Ah there you are!" Aurora stood up and brushed her clothes cleaning. Carefully climbing down the rock she reached the ocean edge. It was only as she started to kneel down did he notice a ray was flapping its wing as if in greeting.

"Thought I wasn't going to see you today!" Reaching her hand out, her fingers gently stroked the top of the fish. "Want to say hello Namur?" Walking over, he knelt down beside her and reached out. The friendly ray brushed up against his fingers whilst swimming in circles. His wings splashed water at the two of them, earning laughter from Aurora and slight smile from Namur.

"Alright, alright. You've had your fun." It stopped and flapped its wing once more before swimming of.

"Bye! See you again!" The two of them stood up and watched the creature until it disappeared. "Guess I better head back home." When Namur looked up he noticed that the sun had started to settle.

"Was nice meeting you Namur. Maybe I'll see you again tomorrow." Waving goodbye, she walked away with a smile on her face. Namur stared at her back until he couldn't see her again. Hopefully they would meet again tomorrow.

I love Namur, he's an interesting Pirate ^^ Actually a good number of the Whitebeard Pirates are ^0^
