AnimeCat92 - ...Ace...

Ace – Ok, got it. Oi, Luffy stop annoying AnimeCat92.

Luffy – But I'm bored.

AnimeCat92 - ...Do I care? Nope. Disclaimer!

-I don't own One Piece, just my OCs-

Marineford...3 weeks since Whitebeard died and Ace was saved. Luffy's injures had healed and now he was returning to the Shabondy Archipelago. His brother was going with him...so he didn't get lost. Ace and Luffy were just setting off, Marco who was now captain had no problem with it. Ace could stay with them for a while. Setting off from whatever island they were on into the sea.

Four days later. "Hey, Luffy." Luffy looked up at his big brother, "Yeah Ace?" "Looks like a storm is setting in. We're going to stop on that island in the distance." "But we're so close..." "Only while this storm's blowing Luff' then we're on our way, ok?" Luffy paused for a few seconds "Ok..." They landed and pulled the boat up the beach and made it into the cover of the trees just as the storm exploded around them. "Great...doesn't look like it's stopping any time soon. Better get comfy Luff', we're going to be here a while." All he heard was a groan from his brother causing him to chuckle.

The storm finally broke at night 2 days later so they decided to leave the following morning. "You prepare the boat Luff', I'll get us some food to keep us going. You're crew is probably all waiting for you on the Archipelago." "Hey Ace what you going to do now?" "Hang with you for a bit...think about what I'm doing next, that ok with you?" Luffy gave his trademark smile "Sure!"

Luffy ran down to the little boat, only just big enough for 2 people and some supplies, and begins to untie from the tree. Just as he starts to push the boat down to the sea he hears a voice behind him, "Hello Monkey D. Luffy." Luffy whipped around.

Ace picked another weird fruit off the ground. It was another half a day until their destination, enough time for Luffy to get hungry. "I think a few more will do it." He walked a bit further on and saw another. Just as he was picking it up, a scream rent the air. Ace dropped the fruit and turned towards the scream. "LUFFY!" and he charged towards the beach.

Zoro had just arrived in the Archipelago and was looking for Raleigh using the vivre card he gave them. Suddenly, a shiver hit him. *What was that?*

Nami, Robin, Chopper and Franky were all on the fully coated Sunny-go, laughing about who will get back first – Luffy or Zoro – when all of them felt a shiver. "Wh-what was that?" "I don't know Doctor-san but something bad just happened I think." Both Nami and Franky nodded. Something had happened, what they didn't know.

Sanji, Brook and Usopp were wandering the Archipelago went they also felt the shudder. A young woman and her duck on a ship, about half a day away from the Archipelago also shuddered. She looked down at the wanted poster she held in her hand of Monkey D. Luffy. *Did something happen to Luffy?*

Luffy – What happened to me?

AnimeCat92 – You'll find out.

Luffy – Tell me!

AnimeCat92 – No.

Luffy – Please! Please! Please!

AnimeCat92 – NO! (Starts to chase Luffy)

Ace – Uh...since AnimeCat92 is busy I guess I'll say it – R & R

AnimeCat92 – Yep! Now come here!

Luffy – No way!
