A merchant who docked his schooner at the island met a group of soldiers and was captured by the soldiers on charges of piracy and held at gunpoint by a soldier.
"Sir, I am a merchant, I laid Anker here just to resupply the ship for food and water, we are not pirates"
The man bit plump, the merchants like to eat more than they drink. He was plump than his other Companions, his face was more florid-faced than plump than his companion
"Quite you bloody pirate"
The soldier thrust the butt of his musket in the head of the plump mam
"Commodore has gone to Kingston ahead we had to commandeer this lumber's ship and set sail to Kingston"
A captain told the soldier were calling this man "lubber".
"No no, sir, I am going to Havana, we can't go to Kingston."
The fat man mumbled again, he met with the fury of the soldier. The soldier pointed his musket at his head
He said, in a grim voice "tell me, one reason not to shoot you here" soldier pressed his musket at the plump man's head, and one of the crewmen took this chance to flee into a tree line deep the n island, two figures were waiting for taking action on these soldiers in those tree line.
The soldier saw the crewman running to the tree line without thinking, all soldiers open fire uncontestedly, killing the crewman, who was running with this hand tied behind his back
This black man's body fell into the pool of mud, which became the pool of blood, four soldiers came to check on the man who just has died.
At this moment two figures rushed out from the tree line one was carrying a cutlass and pistol and the other was carrying nothing but a decorated dagger
The soldiers who were accustomed to fighting with muskets and killing enemies from far but they were taken by surprise
Edward charged forward slashing open the chest of his soldier with his cutlass and with the other hand aimed his gun at the other soldier and short this solider in the head
On the other end, Andrew threw his dagger and this dagger rushed past the soldier which startled the soldiers and dagger was pinned to the soldier's skull behind him which gave Andrew chance to punch his hidden blade in the soldier"s through
"Are you alright mate" Andrew picked up the plump man and cut his hands rope with his dagger which was retrieved from the head of a soldier
The plump man was all but frightened by the bloody show that Andrew and Edward performed
"By God's grace, sir, you saved me. A profusion of thanks!" it wasn't Edward Kenway the farm boy from Bristol who was thanking. He had started again. He had become Andrew Thomas Kenway.
"Where are my manners I did not give you my name I am Stede Bonnet, May I ask what is your good names sirs"
Stede Bonnet stretched his hand towards Andrew and Edward
"My name is Andrew Kenway nice to meet you, Mr Bonnet"
Andrew winked at Edward, Edward was quick to understand Andrew's meaning
"And I am Duncan Walpole" Edward shook hand with bonnet "Mr Bonnet I heard you are going to Havana"
"I was going to Havana but my fist mate died I don't know how to sail the ship" Bonnet explained to Edward
"Don't worry we know how to captain the ship but Bonnet can you give us a moment for private" Andrew said and looked at Edward
"Ok ok there is no, problem in mind the end I will be waiting for you on the ship" Bonnet waved his hand and left
"Edward, we are using this ship to reach Havana remember don't even revile a thing to him about our business" Andrew reminded Edward who was drifting away from his role as time passed by
"Yeah yeah I know I know," Edward Said to Andrew

Both made there we way to the ship and quickly boarded the ship
"Ok gentlemen our next stop is Havana man the sheath open the topmast half sail" Edward comes to the steering wheel of the ship and gave all the crew command the crew quickly
"I hear pirates are roaming these waters," bonnet asked Edward
"Most of them hunt the Windward Passage between Cuba and Hispaniola," Edward told bonnet, as Edward steered his schooner
"I am a merchant I am just doing business and my small schooner will catch the eyes of the pirate so what are your business here Mr Andrew" with a friendly smile Bonnet asked Andrew
"We are here on a confidential business" Andrew answered Bonnet saying that he closed his eyes and started to think about that map he found on the clothes that he found in the buried box
'I think I am not the only superpower in this world there are other beings who can have these supernatural power in them may be Edward is also one of them'
he thought about the time when Thomas and Edward use to climb buildings when they were teenagers 'Edward and Thomas both were made of special genes I think the superhuman testing they were doing on me was both that gene I think they were ting to extract precious genes from my body..... Then I have died'
Thinking this Edward remembered the pain that he suffered from the experiment he was traumatised he never want to go on that path again so from that time Andrew was truly afraid of dying because if transported to the past again he will be miserable then this
"We are about to reach Havana" Edward shouted to men on deck
Andrew here Edward's voice he stood up and saw a lush green tree line on the beach and a deep port perfect for the big ship for docking in the port.
'I am looking forward to finding a blacksmith and trying to make tools to make more modern bullets or revolver or at least Winchester rifle which is used by cowboys in march in the 19th century maybe if and a lathe and use it to make an AK47 but modern bullets are more difficult to made and this area he held fortune of the whole world maybe then he get the things or make them himself
But his dream got better the rational thinking he excitedly jumped from the schooner he was stopped when he head Bonnet calling him
"Gentlemen I never thanked you for saving my life let me entertain you at the bar"
Bonnet said to both of them
Andrew was about to decline his offer but Edward was a particular passion for booze and boobs he did not let it go whenever he grab them
"We will be very obliged to take you to offer" Edward smiled and nodded to Bonnet
Anton was cursing Edward in his heart 'did you forget we used to take Spanish ships and looted them as we see fit but he was curious about 18th-century bars that how do they look like back then
They made their way to the bar and Edward slipped a sleep of man ale and sat on the table while Andrew sat in a lonely corner of the bar he was wearing a big hood and no one eas going to recognise him
But Edward flicked open his hood Bonnet was away making a deal with a merchant he would have come back later Andrew relaxed and his eagle eye was activated and he was a sailor was giving Edward giving an evil eye maybe he was self-righteous that he did not like Edward swiped the ale of sleeping man but whatever he was to Andrew he was looking at red in his eagle eye
Andrew didn't give them too much significance but this dirty sailor started to stare at Edward
"Can I help you, fellow?" Edward said over the lip of my goblet he made a smacking sound with his mouth.
"Fancy meeting a Taffy deep in Dago country," the dirty sailor slurred.
"I'm English myself, biding my time till the next war calls me to service."
Edward was not the kind who will back down on insult so hr curled my lip. "Lucky old King George, Having a piss-pot like you flying his flag." That made the old sailor spit.
"Oi, skulk," the old sailor leash out said. The saliva gleamed on his lips as he leaned forward and huffed the sour smell of week-old booze over me. "I've seen your face before, haven't I? You's mates with those pirates down in Nassau, ain't yer?"
Andrew froze and his eyes darted to where Bonnet stood with his back to me, then around the rest of the inn. It didn't look like anybody had heard. He ignored the drunk next to me.
The dirty old sailor leaned forward, insinuating himself even further into Edward's face. "It is you, isn't it? It . . ." His voice had begun to rise. A couple of sailors at a table nearby glanced our way. "It is you, isn't it?" Almost shouting by then.
Andrew stood, reached forward and grabbed him writhing from his seat and slammed him against a wall. "Shut your insolence before I shut it with a shot. You hear me?" The sailor looked blearily at him. If he'd heard a word he said, he showed no sign of stopping
"He is Edward isn't it"
The dirty sailor was running his mouth
There are many ways for Andrew to shut him up he can slice open this man's throat but he does not want to attract more attention before taking prise from the governor so he chose to shut him the other way
Andrew grabbed the sailor from the back of his head and pulled forward and Andrew trusted his knee right in his stomach 2 inches lower than his chest bone this caused the sailor great pain and when he lifted his head he was met with a punch and was knocked out
You bastard other men came but Edward quickly handled him and now was standing back to back with Edward. Men came at Andrew and Edward but no one can break through their defence because of Andrew's perfect hand in the training he managed to fend off all the advances of sailors Edward and Andrew used the environment to their advantage and threw people at tables and chairs breaking them in the process
Both were standing on the dropped body of a sailor who came to fight both of then
But someone shouted " soldiers" Andrew and Edward saw soldiers pouring in from the gate of Trevan Andrew and Edward looked at each other and nodded and both claimed ladder onto the roof and jumped on the other houses' roofs and disappeared into the eyes of the soldiers.
