Port Mercer began as a quaint, bustling port on the east coast of Georgia... quaint, besides its tendency to attract the wrong kind of attention. It was common knowledge that the docks, along with various establishments downtown, were infested with pirates. But something drove them out of their safe harbour and the town was left to languish for nearly a century, something the few townsfolk that remembered did not speak of.
Most from the neighbouring cities were still afraid to settle there, even with the pirates long gone. Then came the civil war, bringing it back to life- at a price. The town's strange reputation resurfaced once more, however this time it was from the talk of ghosts instead.
But prosperity was not to shine over Port Mercer forever. It was eventually overshadowed by the neighbouring town of Savannah, and fell into obscurity once more.

With a single bag hoisted over her shoulder, Shinju stopped on the side once she passed through the doors. She exhaled and shook her short black locks.
She was tired. And cranky.
She looked through the large windows and squinted her eyes. Night time.
Shinju rubbed the back of her neck and strode toward the exit.

He shuffled along, trying to hustle through the crowd and keep his eyes on Alexa. He sighed as he lugged the endless bags she brought on the trip. How could she have this much junk? He thought as he struggled along. "Shit," he muttered as he could no longer see her blonde pixie head bobbing in the crowd.

She walked hurriedly and without regard for her brother, who was acting as her bag boy at the moment, and darted through the crowd at the airport. She checked over her shoulder and noticed he was no longer in sight. "Brad! Hurry up!" She called with a snap.

He heard her sharp voice through the crowd and shook his head, "Slow down, Alexa," he said in a meek voice that she probably could not hear. She had been a total nightmare ever since they flew out of Philadelphia Airport and he knew it would get no better the longer they were in Port Mercer.

"Ugh, you're so slow!" She called back to him. With a huff, she walked out of the glass pane doors and into the brisk air of Port Mercer. This place already makes my skin crawl, she thought as she gazed over the setting of her new life.

He let out a calming breath and simply followed her out the door. There was nothing else he could do at this point.

"Oi!" Rhys called out to his twin as she rushed to find the baggage claim, heading in completely the wrong direction, "You know, if you read the signs it might help!" Grabbing hold of her hand he led her to get their luggage.

Sammie grumbled under her breath as Rhys dragged her roughly through the crowds. "Ow!" She whirled round, well as best as she could with someone attatched to her arm, to glare at the person who had caught her heel with a trolley, "Watch where you're going!" Rhys tugged on her arm again, leading her away from the burly man she had yelled at.

Jade rushed out off of the plane as quickly as possible without drawing attention to herself. She'd made it. She'd hated the idea of being cooped up on a plane with the possibility of her hunters bring there as well, but she'd had no choice. She ran a hand through her short hair and took a deep breath, already trying to plan out her next move. She winced as she slid her backpack onto her back and lifted the bottom of her shirt to see blood was soaking through the makeshift bandage she had over her wound. She cursed under her breath and headed outside.
