The four looked in awe at the sheer variety and types of goobies that had gathered around them. From youngsters to old veterans, it was amazing how many simply wanted to sail the seas, and have a good time in pursuit of treasure!
"See!" Ahklut exclaimed.
"Told ya this was an amazin' idea!" Leviathan gave a gentle sigh, as they looked over the crowd. It was Cecaelia who looked charmed at Chupa.
"I love it!' She exclaimed.
"You sound exactly like our dad! A pirate through and through!" Angelina meanwhile was waved over by Charybdis.
"Of course you can come along! One has to start somewhere an' if you go overboard I'll catch ya in one of my bubbles! You'll be safe and sound with us!" Reese meanwhile gets a grin by Ahklut.
"Oh I like your tone! Deal!" They reply with no hesitation. Atlian is then waved over, as Ahklut notices their curiosity as well.
"Come on! Come over! We've got fun planned!" They reassure.
"And you look like you could have a great time with us!" Meanwhile all four have a bright smile seeing Kari's hat and wave her over too with happy faces. At Tide's question the kids giggle.
"Of course!" Ahklut replied.
"But we're gonna get to that part real soon, wait an' see!" Davina and Lloyd are waved over as well, and with each new potential crew member the excitement grows. Arcus, Asashi, and Kai are all wecomed as well with,
"'Course ya can! Get over here!" Caspian is invited to come along, as well as eight more goobies besides that all in small groups! It was starting to look like a full crew now!
All four kids cheer for Baigujing and practically beg them to come along. Well, okay, actually beg! Leviathan than, who seems almost the calmest of the four, looks towards Veen.
"Welcome! We would love to have you," he greets, bowing his head a slight. West and Kelpie then are waved over by Charybdis, who is now almost as energetic as Ahklut about the whole thing! Meanwhile Duarte and Silver are met with wide, amazed eyes by all four.
"You know our dad?" Ahklut asked.
"Amazin! We're on a treasure hunt to find him somethin' great! So welcome aboard!" Mads is waved over with a cheerful bubble by Charybdis that makes a small rainbow in front of them. Radio gets a grin.
"Sounds good!" Ahklut chimes in as one last goobie approaches.
"Come on Ringo, we're glad to have you here!"

"Woah, what a turnout! Lovin' that the way of the pirate is alive and well!" Ahklut exclaimed looking over them all.
"Now, got a partnership going with the local shop in exchange for some fish later. We all gotta look the part to be a proper crew! Follow me!" Ahklut led the way, bringing the rather large group to a shop that somehow specialized in pirate clothes and accessories. Some were very real, some looked like costume accessories. If one could imagine it, it was there! From hats to boots, birds to eyepatches, braids to hooks, it was here!
"Find yer look everyone! Go wild, I want to see some real sea dogs emerge from this place!" * * * * *
It's time to dress up the crew! What does your goobie find to dress up in, or do they take part? How does one define what a pirate looks like anyways? If you can think it, today it can become a reality!
DAY TWO IS OPEN!
