Chapter 188 - Chapter 188 Alexander And His Dream To Sail The Sea

As they arrived in town the little boy ran off after thanking them. As the boy left Thomas began to walk off as he said "I'm gonna take a look around." As he walked away Scarlett glanced at Lily and said "He's probably searching for the pirate kings." Lily glanced at Scarlett and said "The only way we'll be able to stop him is if we hold onto his tail and chain him up so why bother trying to." Scarlett stared at Thomas and asked "Are any of us gonna go with him?" Lily glanced at her and said "I'm sure he'll be fine, besides he normally gets into more trouble whenever we go with him." As Thomas walked through the town he mumbled "I can't believe I forgot to ask when the recruitment was gonna happen." As Thomas walked into a bar he said "This is probably the best place to try and get some info." Thomas walked towards the bar tender and sat down as he said "I'll take a drink and any info on the pirate king recruitment." As everyone fell silent one man stood up and walked towards Thomas as he said "You should give up while your ahead I'm taking one of those spots even if I have to kill you." Thomas glanced at him and said "Oh good someone knows." Thomas stared at him and asked "So when is it gonna be?" The man picked Thomas up by his shirt and said "What part of I'd kill you did you not understand." Thomas stared at him and said "I'm pretty sure you said you'd kill me if I wanted one of the spots." The man dropped Thomas and said "Then we have an understanding." As the man turned around Thomas stared at him and said "You still never told me when they were gonna pick." The man a angrily turned around punched Thomas knocking him through the counter as he shouted "A miserable demi human has no hopes of being a pirate king stay out of it." As Thomas sat up he had blood rolling down his face as he smiled and said "Maybe I didn't make myself clear." The man raised his fist and shouted "That makes two of us." As the man punched the ground Thomas was he said "Just die!" Thomas stood behind him as he said "Conflict makes many things easier however for you this is not one of them." The man turned around and swung at Thomas as he shouted "Shut your damn mouth." Thomas ducked under the punch and punched the man in the stomach as he said "But if I say nothing I won't be able to ask you my question again." The man held his stomach and stumbled backwards as he asked "What kind of demi human are you." Thomas walked towards the man and said "Right now I'm asking the questions, and if you'd rather not answer I'm sure I can change your mind." The man took his hand off of his stomach and said "Don't give me that shit, your just a worthless demi human you have no right to demand an answer from me." Thomas smiled and said "For a second I thought we were gonna do this the easy way." The man swung at Thomas and missed hitting one of the tables and shattering it. Thomas glanced at the bar tender and then grabbed the man by the head and smashed his head into the ground as he said "I'll make sure he stops destroying everything." Thomas let go of the man's head and put his foot on the man's chest as he said "Now then feel like talking yet?" As the man reaches for Thomas's foot he stomped on his chest and said "Not so fast, answer the question." The man stared at Thomas as he said "It'll be happening tomorrow, sometime around morning." Thomas took his foot off of the man's chest and said "So if we wanna meet the remaining pirate kings I have to wait till then." As Thomas walked out of the bar the man stared at the bar tender while breathing heavily as the bar tender said "Are you gonna pay for all this?" Thomas glanced out at the sea and mumbled "We'll be seeing Jason and Cali pretty soon, but before all that we get to see a pirate king recruitment." As Thomas sat down on the end of one of the docks a man approached Thomas from behind and said "That was quite the show you put on back there." Thomas glanced at the man and said "Sure." The man sat down beside Thomas and said "You must be quite the experienced fighter." Thomas stared off into the ocean as he said "Not really, but I guess this kinda thing does happen from time to time." The man stared at Thomas and said "If you wanted to become one of the pirate kings you'd surely stand a better chance then most." Thomas laid back on the dock and stared at the sky as he said "I have no interest in it so it would be pointless, nothing more then a flashy title." The man stared out into the ocean as he said "Surely you should know that there's more to being a pirate king then just a title." Thomas sprung up and asked "What else could there be?" The man smiled and said "A pirate king rules over the sea with six others and can claim just about anything they find, and the treasures that they do find are truly remarkable." Thomas yawned and said "Sounds like you know all about it so why don't you become one." The man stared at Thomas and said "Unfortunately I don't think I'd be able to make it very far with the methods their using." Thomas glanced at the man and asked "Let me guess you want me to participate and allow you to join up as one of my crew men?" The man nodded and said "It's always been a dream of mine to sail across the seas of the world and live freely going wherever I please." Thomas stared at him and said "Becoming the a pirate king sounds boring but it does however sound fun to participate in whatever they're doing." The man stared at Thomas and quickly said "If you win can you relinquish your position to me." Thomas glanced at him and said "I never said that I would participate I just said it could be fun." The man stood up and stared at Thomas as he said "If I find a treasure you take an interest in I'll give it to you free of charge." Thomas stared at him and asked "Does a pirate king have to have subordinates and does he have to sail the sea?" The man shook his head and said "Of course not but I don't see why you'd ask such a question." Thomas stared at him and smirked as he said "In that case I'll take you on as a subordinate and leave you in charge of sailing the ocean and doing as you please and keep the title for my self." The man stared at Thomas surprised and said "But a moment ago you hardly even cared about the title." Thomas stood up and said "That's because I thought I was gonna have to do tons of stuff I didn't want to but by doing this I also get treasure without needing to do much." Thomas stuck his hand out and said "Since we'll be working together we should introduce ourselves, I'm Thomas." The man quickly shook his hand and said "Of course it's my pleasure, I'm Alexander." Thomas put his hands in his pockets and began to walk away as he said "I'm not to good with people so I'll leave registration or whatever it is with you, in the meantime I'll be at the local inn." As Thomas walked away Alexander looked out into the sea and shouted "I'm finally gonna live up to my own expectations and sail the sea!" Thomas glanced back at Alexander and mumbled "If this does workout we can get a free trip back to SeaPoint." As Thomas walked towards the local inn he ran into Peri. Peri walked with him as she asked "Heading back to the inn?" Thomas nodded and said "Yeah I figured I need to catch up on my napping." Peri stared at him and said "If you don't start training like the rest of us we'll all pass you up." Thomas stared at her and said "I've already got something planned." Peri stared at him and asked "Are you gonna I crease the weight of your talisman even more?" Thomas shook his head and said "No but I will need it removed." Peri removed the talisman and asked "So what are you gonna do now?" Thomas smiled and said "You'll just have to wait and see."
