Summary: Luffy gets hyped up about a "mystery rainbow mist" and Law mopes around, hoping that he can un-ally himself with the Straw Hats as soon as possible.


"Oi, Mugiwara-ya." Law's voice broke through Luffy's endless daydreams of eating meat. Luffy snapped to attention.

"What is it, Tra-guy?" He grinned, already imagining that Law would give him a piece of meat, drool spilling out like a waterfall onto the deck. Law sighed and put his hand to his forehead. Why, again, did I have to choose this crew to ally with, out of all others?

"What is that?" Law pointed in front of them, to a misty looking section of the sky. He figured that the idiot rubber captain would probably know, he'd probably had seen it on at least one of his idiotic adventure trips. "Is it safe to go through, or do we need to change course?" It was a literally a rainbow of colors, and upon seeing it Luffy's eyes widened. He stopped drooling and stared at the rainbow mist for more than what should have been necessary.

Law was slightly worried. He had never seen the rubber captain display interest in anything other than food. He faced the mist and kept his hand on his katana, just in case there was something he needed to slice up.

"Oi, Nami! Zoro! Usopp! Sanji! Chopper! Robin! You have got to see this!" Luffy screamed, waving his arms frantically. The entire crew instantly rushed out. Franky and Brook seemed quite confused, staring at the rainbow mist in front of them, but the other crew members let out noises that resembled a dying cow. (Except for Zoro of course, he was napping on the deck.) Usopp started quivering. Law started to get just a tiny bit worried. However, Luffy was still grinning, as if he didn't give a care about what was happening to his crew members.

"Let's go in! It'll be fun, just like last time!" The Straw Hat captain shouted happily. Franky and Brook just stood there waiting, even more confused than before. Usopp whispered something with a grimace on his face, and realization dawned on both of their faces. Franky held a hand to his face, mumbling something along the lines of why did I join this crew. Law had to agree with him, even if he wasn't an actual crew member.

"Mugiwara-ya, you did not answer my question." Law stated, his neutral expression back into place. Luffy turned and grinned. Law felt extremely uneasy. Maybe I should just jump off this boat now and save myself the trouble.

Nami shoved the captain aside as he started to ramble about "a mystery mist", "some timey wimey wibbly wobbly things", and "whole new world". She sighed and tossed a piece of meat over to the far side of the ship, watching with an amused expression as Luffy sprinted in that direction as fast as he could. Then she turned to Law and started to explain.

"When we were just starting out as pirates, we came upon an island called Ruluka Island. This same rainbow mist was there, and we went in due to Luffy's carelessness and an old guy. In short: Once we entered, the mist took us to an entirely different dimension, where time didn't work as it did in our world." Law was struggling to keep his neutral face on. He internally screamed, No! I don't want to! This is not part of the plan! No! NO! Don't tell me we're going to go in there!

Luffy's grin grew wider, as if it was even possible. "We're going!" He declared, which was Luffy equivalent to I'm an idiot and I do reckless things! Plus, I'm the captain and you all have to do what I say! Haha! Meat!

Law couldn't take it anymore. "I should get a say in this! I am a captain too!" And despite knowing how childish he sounded at the moment, all he wanted to do was just continue with their plan to take down Kaidou. Nami sighed.

"It's too late to change course. Look, the mist is about five feet away from the ship. Luffy, stop hyperventilating. Go take a calm down walk." Law silently willed Aokiji to come forth and cast his icy powers onto them so the water would stop moving and they wouldn't have to go in. He sat down next to where Zoro was, took a deep breath, and buried his face in his hands. Why. Why. Why me? Whyyyyyyyyy.

Luffy leaped over and tapped his shoulder. "Oi, Tra-guy! Are you ok? You look sick. Are you constipated?" He put on a worried face and prodded him in the side. "If you need to poop, there's a toilet over there." He pointed at the left side of the ship. Law didn't respond. Luffy looked even more concerned. "Do you need to drink some prune juice, Tra-guy?"

As a shichibukai, he decided, screw the ally stuff, he was going to turn the crew in as soon as they got back.

The crew all felt an immense chill while the ship sailed swiftly into the mist. A flash of bright white made everybody's eyes shut tight, hoping that the experience would be over as soon as possible. The blinding light woke Zoro up. He raised his head lazily, with eyes still closed, not the least bit aware of their current predicament. His one remaining eye opened.

He saw Luffy grinning, the crew with deadpan faces, a bright light rapidly fading away, and decided to just go back to sleep and forget that he saw anything.


A/N: Drop a review, let me know what you think so far :3 No flames please! And I do admit, I did make Law kind of OOC while he was moping. But you can't blame him, most pirates wouldn't even last a day with the Straw Hats X)
