Remington's Steel

Sneaky Sam is practising his fencing skills with Morgan Lafitte in Avery's Courtyard, when he evaded her Twirling Blade Dance with a side roll and parried her blade, when she seemingly fell from off-balance and Sneaky Sam, due to his right foot behind her left ankle, fell on top of her. Sam is astonished that he was even on top of his own teacher, when Sarah came from the market and saw her captain on top of her own mentor, though felt seemingly unbothered by it.

She then cleared her throat and said to Sam "Captain… May I have a word in the Tavern Cellar?" Sam nodded awkwardly, before Sarah went down the stairs as Lafitte told Sam "You're getting much more exceptional in your footwork, my model student… If you keep it up, you'll even be a step forward in something else." Morgan Lafitte then glared at Sam in an endearing look, almost with a deep interest in him, before Sam got off from his teacher and went down to the market.

He then entered the Kraken Skulls and went down to the cellar to see Sarah practising her sword movement, before she eyed Sam and said "Hey Captain, there's something important I need to do… and I need your help with it." Sam gestured his hand to let Sarah explain her problem as he leaned on a nearby pillar before Sarah continued, sitting on the edge of the table "I think I'm ready to become a full-fledged Swashbuckler… like you. I've had my share of battles, even when I joined your crew. Morgan Lafitte gave me my first sword training; I need to ask her if I'm ready."

Sam then made a comforting nod, before they went up to the Swashbuckler's Hall and entered to talk with Morgan Lafitte, who's twirling her swords fluently before she noticed Sam and Sarah and said "Oh Captain! It's so nice to see you so soon! What can I help you this time?" Sam rubbed the back of his head, although flustered since he trained with her just a couple minutes ago, before he gestured his thumb to Sarah, who Morgan understand at once and said "Ah, Sarah! I suspect you're wanting to become a Swashbuckler… You've certainly learned much – Footwork, legwork, agility, technique… en garde! Even reflexes, I see."

Sarah then nodded curtly with a flattered smile, before Morgan Lafitte continued "Though there's a hitch… a decent sword. You mentioned before there's one such blade in your family?" Sarah nodded with her eyes closed before she replied "My Uncle's. Before he could give it to me, there's something important I must do first. Sam, we need to go to Flotsam and see a Rat named Nicodemus." Sam then nodded curtly at Sarah, before she stroked his head in an endearing smile and they exited the Swashbuckler's Hall; they then went down to the Skull Island Docks and boarded The Dashing Dodger with Old Scratch and Ratbeard, before heading off to Flotsam.

When they arrived at Flotsam, Sarah led Sam and the others to where Nicodemus is; when they encountered Nicodemus, he said "Good day Pirate, and to your—"Nicodemus then noticed Sarah and continued "Why, if it isn't little Sarah, all grown up! Can I find something for you, girl?" Sarah replied, subtly gritting her teeth "You know what I want, you old Pack Rat – I need the Spyglass."

Nicodemus nodded with his arms crossed before saying in a matter-of-factly tone "For your uncle, of course. My Golden Spyglass isn't for sale… but I will certainly trade for it. I need cannons from the Monquistan's Rojo Fleet. I won't tell you why, but I'll certainly trade the Spyglass for the cannons." Sarah sighed in irritation, before she, along with Sam, Ratbeard and Old Scratch, went aboard The Dashing Dodger and sailed to Tradewinds Skyway. After doing a few broadside battles against Rojo ships, they sailed back to Flostam to see Nicodemus leaning on the nearest pillar.

Sam and Sarah slid down to the platforms from individual roping, before Sam let go of his rope and 5 sets of Monquistan Cannons landed in front of Sam, who quipped "Special delivery for one Nicodemus." Sarah shook her head amusingly with her eyes closed, before Nicodemus replied "Well I'll be! Well done Sam and Sarah; not a lot of pirates can pull off a job like that! Here's the Spyglass Sarah, take it to your uncle and I hope he'll forgive you." Sarah replied flatly as she took the Spyglass from Nicodemus "I doubt he'll forgive, but we'll see. Farewell, Pack Rat!"

Sarah then led Sam and the others to where her Uncle Remington lives, before she opened the door and they went inside, when a slight elderly voice rang "And who you might be, Pirate? You think you can just barge into my—"Sarah cleared her throat, before Remington looked at Sarah and changed his tone in surprise before continuing "Sarah! My gosh, it's been years! You really think you're welcome here?" Sarah rolled her eyes and replied in a scoff "I'd never presume so much. I brought this back to you, by the way."

Sarah gave the Spyglass to Uncle Remington, who grabbed it with his paws, before saying "Ah, me Spyglass! It's about time… I suppose you want to trade it for me Sword. I promised it to you, but I… currently don't have it." Uncle Remington heaved a sigh before he continued "The Bilge Rats have it. You remember them, of course; Mick Dagger took it when I tried to run them out of here. One-Eyed Jack knows how to find them."

Sarah shook her head in note before she, Sam and the others went up to the Black Spot Tavern and went to the back to talk with One-Eyed Jack; after a brief summary, Jack noted "Mick's a real rough character; Leader of the Bilge Rats, he is. An old 'friend' of Miss Steele's, if I recall…" Sarah replied in a firm voice with her arms crossed "That stinking, no good thief is not, in any way, a friend of mine!" One-Eyed Jack shrugged and said "No matter. Mick's been busy when the Rat Pack fell to pieces. The Bilge Rats are on the rise. He and his gang are holed up in a household in the southeast rim. Be careful…"

After they left the tavern, they went down to where Mick Dagger's likely to be; although he wasn't inside the cabin, Sam and his crew knew one of the goons would know where Mick is now. After a swift skirmish with the goons, one of the Brigands admits that Mick is in Scrimshaw's High House, underneath the backbone. After knocking the Brigand out, Sam and the others set sail to Scrimshaw in The Dashing Dodger and boarded the docks portside before they headed up to the top level and entered the High House.

They readied their weapons before they barged through the front door, startling Mick and his Rat goons, before he noticed Sarah Steele among them and said slyly "Sarah Steele… You've come for the sword, eh? Well, you can't always get what you want!" Mick and his goon rushed to Sam and his crew, when Sam slid underneath Mick's swung dagger and did a twirling blade uppercut behind Mick; Sarah then flanked Mick and with the help of Ratbeard and Old Scratch, they beaten Mick and his gang.

Mick then said weakly as he laid on his back in deep pain "Here… take… the sword. I guess there's no place in Scrimshaw for a streetfighting rat! You'd best watch yourself, Captain. Sarah's a traitor, through and through. Loyal as a snake, she is!" Sarah replied firmly with her arms crossed "All you got from me, Mick, you've had it coming! Well, Captain, at last I've got a proper sword! Let's get to a Tavern cellar and celebrate!" Sam nodded with a curtly smile and they went to the Hole-in-the-Wall Tavern at the docks and entered the Cellar with Ratbeard carrying 4 bottles of Yum.

Sarah then took a bottle for her and Sam and said to him "Captain… I really appreciate your help with reacquiring my Uncle's Sword… but I understand if you have distrust towards me." Sam looked at Sarah and, much to her surprise, smiled warmly at her and replied "Sarah… It doesn't matter what you did in the past, I'm always willing to help you out anyway I can." Sarah felt some weight lifted from her heart, smiling sweetly at Sam before they pursed their lips on the bottleneck and drank their Yum.
