Wield walked through the streets, as the many people around him gasped and pointed fingers at him. His very name struck fear into those who heard it. Above him, a blood red sail obscured the sun's shine of hope. The Bloody Sail, Wield's pirate ship, brought an air of destruction wherever it docked. Not even officials would step up to him, and you were about to find out why, along with the fact that his name was Wield the Cruel.
Two little boys were running around, and one stepped in front of him, stopping him in his wake. He looked down at the now cowering boy, a slow smirk arising from his lips. He reached down, grabbing the boy by his collar, and lifted him to his face.
"Children," Wield sneered, raising his gun to the child's head. The gun shot echoed on the now quiet streets, as he lazily dropped the boy's body. A cruel laugh was heard from behind him, as Wield's smirk broke into a hidden grin.
"Wield, you need to stop destroying our future," Ghigno joked, walking up to him. He grabbed the other child, who had ran to a cop.He sneered, before another shot echoed across the almost barren streets.The remaining sun caught the scar that haunted his face in a jagged line that formed at his eye and crossed to his jaw, eliciting shocked gasps and murmurs from the crowds of people. His scar was the reason why he was called Ghigno - it's meaning was Sneer in Italian.
"Shut up,"He said stiffly, as they walked to his ship. Wield had a brief flashback, of the time he and Ghigno had become best friends, in a sort of sadistic way. They had both signed up on the ship as Galley boys, just to learn all about life on the open seas. The previous Captain had made the mistake of trusting Wield, and now he was the Captain, with Ghigno at his side as his first mate.
Ghigno brought Wield back to Earth, lightly clapping him on the shoulder
"C'mon, friend. Time to head out to open sea"
