The Beacon came out of the Jump point and the squad that saw it took a view at the Sea Universe. It was an endless sea, beautiful and bright, with individual islands all over it.

"Wow… a whole universe that's mostly water…" Hope said.

"No end to it in any sight. Just nothing but an endless ocean." Sabo said.

"I'm completely in awe right now. One of the new universes, and were taking in all of it." Hope said.

"Yeah. And this world has only islands as land masses. One one of them, there was nothing but treasure so that means it definitely has a sentient population if they value wealth." Kazuichi said.

"Alright, let's take a look around, see if there's any trouble or we can just explore." Hope said.

"Hard to look for trouble in a universe we know nothing about." Titanica said.

"Then we do what jexi does and just mosey around the island. No problem there." Hope said.

"Yeah. We got this!" Damien said before slipping as he fell out of the ship and into the water.

"Damien! We got you!" Lacy said grabbing him.

"You...you guys gotta see what's under water." Damien said.

"Huh?" Fuyuhiko said sticking his head down there before resurfacing. "He's right! There's something down there. Something big."

"Alright, we need to get down there." Hope said before a large tentacle grabbed the Beacon. "Whoa!"

"Uh...I think what we saw down there was some kinda giant octopus." Ichiro said.

"I think the term is…" Hope said as it surfaced. "Kraken!"

"Looks like its time for some Calamari. Yum!" Teruteru said.

"Forget the food. Activate the boosters and get us away from the thing." Fuyunyan said.

Doing so, they fired the thrusters and sped away from the Kraken as it lost its grip, plowing back into the Sea.

"That was close…" Hope said.

"Yeah, our first run in with a Kraken and we barely escaped. And someone wanted to cook it." Fuyuhiko said.

"Wait, I see an island incoming!" Gemini said as they were approaching a small island.

"Perfect. We can stop there." Hope said as they landed. On the island was a town that was considered a place for people of the sea to mingle.

"Hmm. Looks like a mix of traders and island villagers. Nothing too serious here." Alisa said.

"Lets ask around for some information about this world." Nana said.

"Yeah, that would seem like a great idea." Sonia said before they heard screaming.

"Help! Someone help! Thief!" a clerk shouted as they saw someone running away with a sack of food.

"Trouble, you are a crazy mistress." Hope said as the group chased after him. "Wanna do the Honors, Cel?"

"Its summer time now so...Summer Heat!" Celti said firing a fireball as the thief looked back.

"Seabreeze Kick!" he shouted kicking the air as the fireball quickly dissipated.

"I got this!" Ciel said charging with her sword.

"Sandy Shield!" he shouted kicking the sand as it acted like a shield defending him as he made his way.

"IS he a Color fighter?" Hope asked.

"Looks like it, but I've never seen him around before." Celti said as the thief escaped.

"Excuse me, but who is that thief?" Hope asked a citizen.

"Oh. That child. His name is Breeze, he's a local thief that comes around once a week and steals our food and fends us off with his bizarre abilities." the citizen said.

"You ever think youre misunderstanding him?" Hope asked.

"No we're not. He's a thief stealing from our businesses. We will not stand for it anymore." he said. "The Navy is patrolling around here next week. Once they see his thieving, they'll put him down and throw him in a gutter where he belongs."

"Yes. Trash like him deserves such a horrible fate." another said. "I'm tired of losing money because he steals my bread."

"And my fruit." another said.

"And my desserts!" another said.

"What if… what if we prove you wrong? We;; show you hes not evil, and not trash." Hope asked. "Wheres his hideout?"

"Evil? Ha! Who cares about something such as that. We only care about getting rid of the pests from the deserted beach." the citizen said as they dispersed.

"Man, that was not what i was going for." Hope said.

"Hope, these people are awful." Celti whispered. "You sure you wanna do this?"

"I know a misunderstood guy when i see it. That guy, Breeze… hes not who these people say he is." Hope said. "And were gonna find out the truth."
