I watched La storia della Arcana Famiglia and I just really liked it. It had its flaws but I really liked the little twists and the drama. I liked the idea of the Arcana powers and the characters were pretty great and so I wrote this.
I hope you will enjoy it.

The rain kept pouring down endlessly as the ship kept rocking wildly against the waves. Libertá ran across the wet and slippery deck as he secured all the cargo down so that it wouldn't fall in the ocean. He was completely soaked, tired and hungry but he knew that he couldn't just go under the deck while everyone else was fighting against the storm.
"Libertá!" A familiar, strong voice shouted. The blonde turned around to see the ship's captain, Dante. The two had a special relationship since Dante had taken care of Libertá since he was a child and was like a father to him.
A strong hand rested on the blonde's shoulder as Dante gave a smile.
"You should go inside. We'll handle the rest." Libertá gave a tired smile.
"No, I'll stay here with you guys a long as it takes. I wouldn't be able to rest anyways if I knew that you might need my help." Dante grinned.
"Is that so? Well alright then. Just make sure that you aren't too harsh on your body." Libertá nodded and headed further across the ship.
An hour or so passed and the crew could finally rest a bit. They still needed some men on the deck but some were able to go inside to rest.
But of course Libertá was too stubborn to do so.
If he had known that his tiredness would be the cause of some very unfortunate happenings he probably would have gone inside to rest. But since he hadn't been given the power to see the future he couldn't have known what was waiting ahead of them.
After all, no one saw it coming. But it happened anyway.
Pirates used the weather for their cover in order to get close to their ship and soon the deck was filled with unfamiliar men, who were clearly very good at fighting. But so were the Arcana Family members on board.
The entire crew had been called to the deck to fight the pirates and it was clear that they were winning. But no one had expected the outcome of the battle.
The pirates weren't after their cargo but something much, much more valuable to them.
"Libertá!" Someone shouted. Dante only saw a flash of the blond hair as the boy was taken to the other ship in his unconscious state.
The pirates withdrew instantly after that and the Arcana Family members had no time to follow them into their ship.
"Follow the ship, we must get Libertá back no matter what!" Dante shouted and the entire crew agreed. After all, Libertà was an important part of their family.
But they couldn't follow the ship for long. The raging sea was pulling them further and further away from the pirate ship and before they knew it was morning and the other ship had disappeared.
Dante stood at the front of the ship and continued to gaze forward.
"Libertá..."

This story shouldn't take too long to update. Probably.
