ACT I

HOW IT ALL STARTED

The crown on her head was loosely put to the left as she sat on the throne, her green eyes looking down upon her hands. The right hand held a spear, lined with gold with a blue accent. She laid the spear on the golden throne, the serenity was a moment to savor because it never lasted long.

'Well,Quincy would've handled the situation by peace - not force..' She thought to herself as she closed her eyes. Their friendship wasn't the most... stable, but they managed. They were friends, yes, but fights tended to come up more than whatever friends do, but Quincy did hold a place in Naomi's heart. Her stone, cold heart. The doors to the throne room opened, showing a group of people surrounding a man in cuffs.

She raised an eyebrow as she sat straight on the throne. Naomi watched as the group bowed their heads - all expect the man in chains. Naomi said nothing as the man in the front - James? Jamie? Something along those lines - spoke first. "My queen - we have caught this man stealing from the local bank. But this isn't his first time either."

Naomi grabbed the spear, and stood up. She inhaled sharply as she looked down upon the man in chains. Naomi opened her mouth to speak, but - yet again! - the throne doors open. Naomi looked up, wanting to see who had the audacity to barge into the room. Naomi's eyes widen as she saw him.

"Quincy?" She spoke, disbelief laced her tone as she furrowed her eyebrows. Quincy's black hair was slicked back, his blue eyes piercing Naomi's as he pointed this head to the side - indicating that he needs to talk.

Naomi licked her lips before she sighed. She flicked her free hand as she spoke, "go. I will decide his fate later. Dismissed."

Quincy looked around anxiously as the throne room emptied quickly once Naomi dismissed everyone. Quincy's gaze reached Naomi as he walked up to the throne on which she sat on. He didn't bow - he had the expectation, being the great son of Thomas Tew. Libertalia was founded by eleven major pirate captains - Avery, Tew, Baldridge, Bonny, Condent, England, Malik, Al - Basra, Want, Mayes, and Farrell. All these captain's believed that they could take their riches and created a utopia for all. But they made to stay hidden, away from the authorities and away from any person that would cause problems for their city. Henry Avery and Thomas Tew were the two men who ruled over the kingdom and the other captains were along side them.

"Naomi - Queen Naomi," he corrected once he saw the looks he received from the guards present in the room. He turned back to Naomi, speaking once again. "We have received sightings of an unknown presence on the border of Libertalia. We do not know of these people are allies or enemies. We choose to inform you before we make any rash actions, Naomi. We await your word, my queen."
On a few occasions in the past, very little people found Libertalia. Sailors were washed up on the border of the kingdom, not in hopes to find the myth that was Atlantis on land. Naomi nodded her head in understanding.

"I shall address the situation myself. I will take only two guards will me - but I will make sure if push comes to shove - I will have my spear with me." Naomi spoke, authority laced in her tone. She nodded towards Quincy as she turned back to the throne, taking off her armor that she was currently wearing. Naomi wanted to look as normal as possible for these 'unknown presence' group. She would have send her guards, but sometimes, they don't come back, so she needed to go. For the safety of her people, and her.

Naomi put the spear on her back whilst she walked out of the throne room, determined to find these people. Quincy told her where they were sighted, so Naomi must follow that path.

[...]

"How can you be sure that this 'Libertalia' even exists?" Spoke the man with blonde hair. Shrugs was the answer by a few of this group but one answered - "Because Atlantis exists."

The blonde man closed his mouth as he saw a figure walking towards them. To them, the figure looked fairly short, and light skin but that was it. But Naomi made herself look has normal has she could - which wasn't much except for the crown, and less shiny clothing. Naomi did not like to brag about her power and kingdom but she wanted to make sure people respected her as a queen.

Naomi finally reached the group of men, all of them watching Naomi as she stopped in front of the first man - observing them. They definitely weren't from the islands, but they seemed to know the area well because nobody could just end up on the shore of a random island in the caribbean.

"Are you lost, young girl?" One asked, confusion on his face. Naomi smirked as she looked up at the man who spoke and said, "I could ask you the same thing, young, ignorant fool."

The men at one another, surprised that a woman was speaking to him in such a tone until he ignored her comment and walked past her, clenching his jaw. Naomi grabbed the spear from her back, spinning it as she sliced his arm open. This was the signal for her guards to move in behind her if anything went wrong. Slowly, you could see the faint outline of the soldier behind her - and this caused the other four to walk back to the shore.

"The King will not be happy if we do this." One of the men spoke, his voice filled with worry as the blonde one rolled his eyes and scoffed.

"He is not the rightful heir to the throne. He is one these... land dwellers." With this spoke, Naomi placed her spear on the blonde's throat, blood nearly seeping down the spear. Everybody was confused on this spear as Atlantean's skin were hard to pierce due to the low temperatures and pressures of the sea.

Naomi held this man's eyes, seriousness dripping off of her as she watched the movements. This talk of a king made her wonder if there was somebody coming to take over and storm the kingdom. This only made Naomi angrier. To think Libertalia is a weak kingdom and they wanted to storm it? They being this 'king' they speak of? She needed answers. Now.

"Show me this King of yours if you truly believe of coming to my land and taking what it not yours. I must speak with him at once."
