"Oh look! Mermaids!" Kaylee yelled out as everyone looked to where the youngest Date was pointing and saw two mermaids sitting on a rock, when one dove into the water before they could get a good look at her all they saw was a purple tail disappearing into the water.

"Greetings!" The other mermaid called out with a wave.

"Who was your friend?" Rowen asked.

"Her name is Gina, you have to forgive her. She always hides when a pirate ship sails by us." The mermaid said.

"You were one of the mermaids that save us from the storm. What is your name?" Nicole said, recognizing her voice.

"I was. My name is Kayura." Kayura said with a smile.

"Thank you, Kayura, where is the other mermaid that helped?" Theresa asked.

"You're welcome. My friend that helped is around here somewhere, I will tell her you said thanks." Kayura explained before she jumped into the water and disappeared as well, letting them wonder why her friend left when they showed up and was she the same friend that helped save Sage and his family?

When they finally docked at Port Dranzer, everyone was happy and Sage and his family went back to their home. Sage knew that he wanted to join Rowen's crew.

"Is everything alright, Seiji?" asked Alex as he looked at his grandson who had been quiet since they left the 'Ancient Ronin'.

"Yes, everything is fine, grandfather. I was just thinking." Sage replied.

"About what?" Theresa asked her son.

"I was wondering if it was ok with you if I joined Rowen when he sets sail again." Replied Sage.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Alan asked him.

"Yes dad, it is. Anything I get I'll give some to you so you can rebuild the ship." He replied.

"You will be careful?" his mother asked.

"Yes mom, I will be careful as any pirate can be." said Sage.

"You may go then, just promise us that you will stop into say hello when you find yourself back here." His father said.

"I will, I promise." Sage said as he hugged his family before going to pack some things.

An hour later found the Date family on the docks saying good-bye to Sage as he joined his childhood friend as they set sail.

Sage stood and waved to his family as they waved back, he stood there and watched as his family got smaller as the ship sailed out of Port Dranzer.

"You ok?" Rowen asked as he joined Sage at the rail a little while later.

"Yeah, I'm going to miss them though." Sage replied.

"Well I think you will like where we are going to then." Rowen commented with a small smile.

"Oh? Where's that?" Sage asked looking at his friend.

"We are going to Tortuga!" Rowen said with a grin.

"That should be fun." Sage sail as he grinned back.

Rowen wrapped an arm around Sage and led him away from the rail and towards the others who stood up by the wheel. Once the five of them were together they talked and Sage got to know Ryo, Kento, and Cye. One of the men in the crew pulled out a sketch book and started drawing his young captain and his four friends as White Blaze stood by his master.

It took them about a week to sail into Tortuga and when they got there, they learned that Talpa had gone and attacked Port Dranzer and had kidnapped Mia and Yuli. They found the crew of Talpa's ship "The Neither Spirits" and they got into a fight. Rowen fought with Talpa, Ryo went against a man named Anubis, Sage fought against a man named Cale who had a scar on his face, a man with white hair named Dais went against Kento, and Sekhmet, a man with green hair fought Cye. White Blaze managed to get Mia and Yuli away from the fight and back to the 'Ancient Ronin'.

"You fight better than your old man." Talpa told Rowen.

"That's because I'm younger. What did you do to my sister?" Rowen replied.

"She's still alive the last I saw her, if that's what you mean." Talpa said as they kept fighting.

"What. Did. You. Do. To. Her!" Rowen said angrily.

"I did nothing to her before I tossed her into the sea." Talpa said before he knocked Rowen to the ground and whistled to his men and they stopped fighting and both sides regrouped.

"What do you mean?" Rowen asked softly, as Sage helped him to his feet; Rowen was shaking slightly and Sage could feel it.

"She was still alive when I saw her last after I tossed her into the sea. She was starting to annoy me." Talpa said as Sage tighten his hold on his friend, fearing he'd attack Talpa again.

Talpa laughed as he and his crew left them alone as Rowen glared after him, while Ryo, Cye, and Kento wondered why their friend was angry. Sage was angry at Talpa as well but he hid it behind his worry for Rowen.

"It will be okay, Rowen. We will find her." Sage spoke so quietly to his friend that only he could hear him.

"It will never be okay until she is back where she belongs." Rowen said angrily.

"Let me guess, Talpa said something about Georgina?" Ryo asked, having heard Rowen said the word she. There was only one female that Rowen would get this angry over, his twin sister.

"Yeah, he did. He won't tell me what he did to her, that bastard." Rowen growled angrily.

"Come on, Ro; let's go back to the ship. I'm sure White Blaze has gotten Mia and Yuli back to the ship with no problems." Sage said as he guided Rowen back to his ship as the others followed.

When they got back everyone knew that Rowen was pissed off at Talpa and they left him alone, knowing well enough that talking to him when he was like this was a bad idea. Mia also knew not to talk to Rowen when he was this mad, so she asked Sage why Rowen was angry. Sage told her that Talpa had hinted to Rowen about what he had done to his twin sister, but did not say exactly what it was that he had done to her, all Rowen knew was that she was still alive and that Talpa had thrown her into the sea after a while.

They stayed in Tortuga for a few days before they left. Rowen had calmed down and decided it was time to attack a few ships and ports, the crew cheered since it had been a couple of months since they had done anything pirate like. The first place they hit was a small port a half day's sail southwest of Tortuga, a port that Rowen knew that Talpa would not go to. Talpa liked hitting the larger ports rather than the smaller ones like the one they were going to that was called Port Isis.

The 'Ancient Ronin's' hit the small ports and a few large ports that lay between Tortuga and Port Royal. Once they got to Port Royal they did not attack it, they needed a break so they stayed there for about three weeks before the 'Neither Spirits' showed up at Port Royal as well.
