The beginning

Edward, the most feared pirate of the 7 seas lurked in the forest stalking it's pray.

Waiting for the opportunity to hunt it down. With each step towards it his heart pounded faster. It's not the first time he is doing a hunt but still it feels like it's his first time. After all it was indeed the first time he hunted after leaving his crew. As he moved forward he silently, but quickly loaded his Flint knock. Lurking towards the wild boar , steadily walking towards it Edward aimed towards the boar.

BOOM!!!

The loud bang was there but not front the Flint knock but something from Edward's memory. It was a Cannon sound from a frigate. Distracted from his prey , for a moment Edward forgot about his prey. The wild boar charged towards Edward and knocked him back to his hunt. Startled and in immense pain Edward head came back to the boar in front of him. Looking for his flint knock he realised it must have been dropped while the boar crashed him. In hurry Edward took out his knife and waited for the right moment.

As the boar charged, Edward ducked sideward and stabbed the boar in the neck . Fortunately it was a success. Edward walked towards the boar as it cried in agony.

Locating his flint knock he decided to end the pain of the boar. After this kill he took the boar back to the village. Living in the pirate capital Nassau had it's own perk of being away from British hands but in every day or two the brake out of a fight was quite normal.

On the way back to the village Edward thought about the decision made by him in the past "I did lived a great life. THE LEGENDARY LIBERATOR, I gotta say the title was an honor. Unlimited loot, loyal crew, captain of a Man-o-war everything pirate could ever want. Alas, if it wasn't for my dear Lisa I would have never left the sea "

As he thought this on the way back to the village Edward heard a loud cry of a women . Leaving the hunt behind Edward ran towards the noise. To his surprise it was the Mayor's wife who was being forced by a monster.

Edward, within an impulse grabbed hold of the monster and threw him. Edward made 2 theories first the monster was no imposter. The monster had the body of a human but for one hand it had tentacles and his head was shaped like a hammerhead shark, second it was not forcing the lady insted it was feasting apon the lady.

Seeing the horror in front of his eyes Edward took out his knife and charged towards the monster. For Edwards surprise it dodged his strike and slashed Edwards back. As for years of experience Edward could easily tell that it was a pirate but his eyes refused to believe it. Then, the monster chaged towards Edward with his full might but Edwards strength was no match to that of the monster . In a quick move Edward was able to disarm his opponent but it was too close to Edward to be able to dodge the razor sharp bite of the shark. In his pain he took his flint knock and shot it through its head.

While dying the monster spoke "death will.. death will always find you Edward ".

In shock Edward tore off the sleve of the monster and to his horror he saw the GOLDEN SKULL tattoo on the shoulder. It was Edward's loyal crew but how did this happen. Just then Edward analysed the situation and ran away " God forbid if anything happens to my Lisa I won't be able to forgive my self".

As he reached his house Edward saw blood stains every where. The house completely destroyed, smell of blood everywhere "Oh.. oh no.... Lisa " as he said these words Edward saw to his horror. It was the INFAMOUS ABBYS his own Man-o-war with the black sail waving against the air.

As Edward stepped out he saw Arthur his First-mate and just like that monster he too was not a human. He was covered in scales and for his head he had an eagle head with an eye patch on his right eye. Other than that he had a tail of an alligator.

"ARTHUR you son of a.... " before Edward could say any thing he was stabbed in his back. "Oh my it is indeed true. It's our fate to be together Captain Edward Mason THE LIBERATOR but to your knowledge it's not Arthur, it's Captain Arthur ."Arthur said "I did came for you Edward but to my dismay I found your women and as you know me hehe.. I couldn't resist. but I gotta say that women was a fighter like you. She died rather than being with me as always. " In tears Edward realised "It's me you wanted why her?? Why?? ". " yeah you know Edward I don't have much time so let's make it snappy shall we. After all you have to meet your women and your son " Arthur replied.

"Son? I don't have a son what are you.... no..no no no God NOOOO! " Edward cried. For before all men went to week long hunt Lisa told Edward that she had a news for Edward. "Oh do you wanna see him I'll help you captain I found out after I dissected her her take a look" saying this Arthur threw an unborn baby in front of Edward. "I will kill you Arthur. I WILL KILL YOU " Edward stood up with all his might and lept upon Arthur. In a snap Arthur caught Edward neck and said "you can't Edward. you can't" and stabbed him in his heart. "Now I will leave you to spend time with your wife and son" and tossed Lisa's head towards Edward. "I am sorry Lisa...I am sorry"
