Mana sat low in his boat as he lay underneath the seats resting under the shade as he slept peacefully. He let out a snore and turned onto his right side and smacked his lips in his sleep. He was dreaming about playing music on a pirate crew. He and the crew were having a wonderful time singing along to bink's sake when he was suddenly woken from his sleep. He coughed and choked as he opened his eyes quickly. there was water coming into the boat as he scrambled to get up but he forgot that he was underneath the seat and hit his head when trying to get up. He sat as he tried to get the taste of sea water out of his mouth and rubbed his right temple, He saw a island coming up and hopped he could make it before his boat sank. Mana grabbed a pail and turned his sail towards the island and began scooping out the seawater quickly. He stopped for a moment and put his rucksack up on a seat and made sure it wasn't to wet. He had a few of his most precious items in their and he couldn't afford for them to be damaged.
He grabbed a paddle and began rowing on one side of the boat as he neared a dock. Then he did a miscalculation. Suddenly his boat shook very violently as a rock pierced the front end. He grabbed his bag to make sure it didnt fall into the sea as he fell onto his hack. Water was pouring in very quickly now. He sighed and got up and placed his bag on his side. there were a few large rocks leadign to a nearby ship that was also headed into a dock. Mana gulped as he jumped from his sinking boat onto the rocks one by one. Though by the last one he near slipped and fell but he regained his balance at the last second. He let out a sigh of relief and crouched down low and jumped onto the boats deck and ran off it and jumped onto a dock. He landed onto the dock but then fell face forward.
He sighed and rubbed his face. He thought to himself 'It was going to be one of those days.' He walked across the dock slowly making his way into town. He swerved through the people as he passed by them. The town was pretty busy full of people with their own comings and goings as it were. He smiled as he saw a man holding his son up on his shoulders. the boy was smiling and laughing happily he couldn't of been more than five years old. Mana wiped his forehead off with the back of his glove and continued on walking through the town. He saw a few marines here and there but he was sure he wasn't spotted.
He leaned up against a white brick wall and set his ruck sack down and opened it. He reached inside slowly and pulled out a violin case and opened it. He pulled the violin out of the case and placed his fingers on the stings. His free hand reached into the case and grabbed the bow and he placed his chin up on the chin rest. Maybe if he was lucky some people might give him some tips, he shut his eyes and began going through his mind about what song to play.Then inspiration hit him like a bolt of lightning, he smirked and kept his eyes closed as he began to play a sad yet soothing melody. To him it seemed appropriate since he had just lost his little boat he had been using since he had left his home town.
