Lacey left her home in Foosha Village it pained her to leave Dadan. She knew the women loved her like her own even if she did refuse to show it. Lacey had promised Luffy she would fulfil her own dream and study all the flowers the world has to offer. Shortly after the events at Marine Ford Lacey knew it was time to leave Foosha Village behind and travel the word fulfilling her dream. She hadn't thought much on about how she was going to fulfil the dream she promised both Ace and Luffy she would complete one day. After hearing about the events at Marine Ford she was more than motivated to leave the Foosha Village library and leave behind the doctor who had trained her as a nurse the past year. Since Luffy's departure Lacey had learnt more about plants and also been trained as a nurse and can make her own medicine from them. She was truly grateful to Dadan who raised her and her brothers to the best of her ability although they all gave her a hard time she was truly a great women. She remembers following Dadan as she ran in to the village hearing Garp is back. Lacey didn't want to face her grandfather she was ashamed that he had let that happen to Ace without putting up a fight, but a part of her knew there was nothing he could do without being branded a criminal himself. She followed Dadan in till she met Garp she hit him, repeatedly yelling at him Lacey couldn't hear much from her hiding place behind the bush not wanting her grandfather to see her, she could hear Ace and Luffy's names being said but not much else. Seeing Dadan cry hurt and Lacey decided that was it, she had to leave this place and do what she promised her brothers for their sake and Dadans.
She said her goodbyes to Dadan not giving Dadan time to grasp the situation she packed her few belongings and a few books that the doctor had given her and a few that she had brought on plants over the years she knew she would buy many more over the years sailing the seas but it was safe to say Lacey knew all about the plant life in Foosha village, the books weren't just to look back at what she had learnt but a piece of home she was taking with her. Sailing off at the docks quickly not letting Dadan stop her it was more so for Lacey's sake she didn't want to say goodbye, goodbye meant there was no seeing each other again no more hello's to be had. Dadan waved to the departing Lacey while Garp yelled at her to get back here watching Dadan hit him once more and walk towards her home made her smile although walking away she didn't stop waving in till Lacey was too far away to know if she had stopped or not. 'Well Ace, I'm doing it, I'm fulfilling my dream. It won't be easy and the seas are dangerous but as Luffy says if I have to die fighting for that, then at least I died trying.' Lacey said to herself as she sat looking up into the sky.
