Doflamingo watched the young black haired girl who stood ankle deep in the sea. He and his crew had only been docked here for about a week or so but the girl was always here, her back always facing them. Normally he wouldn't give a damn about a stranger standing on the beach but this girl had managed to peak his interest.

While everybody else in the small town avoided the beach where his ship was docked, the girl made it a point to visit it every day. She also made it a point not to bother looking in the ships direction, no matter how much noise was coming from it.

"Young Master" Vergo said from beside his friend, "The military has increased your bounty once again"

"Fufufu~ but it's not enough yet" Doflamingo replied

Vergo nodded understanding with his friend meant. The military had taken notice of him but at the time it wasn't enough for them to give him an offer of any kind.

"Her name is Avara" Vergo said after a few moments of silence

This caught his attention more than his bounty, now Doflamingo turned to face his friend, curious as to how he got the information.

"She has a bounty" Vergo informed his friend

"How interesting. How much is she worth?" Doflamingo asked

Vergo sighed, "$95,000,000 beri"

Doflamingo felt a grin spread across his face, for a girl who appeared as young as she was that wasn't too bad at all. It was decided then. He was going to give her an offer she couldn't refuse.

Avara could feel the captain of the Donquixote pirates approach her. The crew had been here for a week, and it was annoying her. Everybody in the town was acting strange and no other pirates had come to the island since they were here.

"Oi, kid" Doflamingo said from the shoreline, avoiding the sea

Avara stayed silent, unsure of how to reply to this man. He was the captain of a strong crew, and if he was going to attack her she'd already be at a disadvantage since she was in the sea and her devil fruit ability wouldn't work. There really wasn't much she could do now that she thought about it.

Frowning Avara turned to face the man an annoyed look on her face. Doflamingo grinned noticing the look of annoyance on her face. Annoyance was new, normally people were just scared. Such a face didn't seem to suit her face though.

Now that he got a good look at the girl he realized she looked quite ordinary, aside from her eyes. He also realized she was quite young looking, appearing to be at least four or five years younger than himself.

"What strange eyes" Doflamingo thought to himself. Such a light silver, they almost appeared transparent.

"Can I help you?" She said after a few minutes of silence

Doflamingo chuckled while looking down at the annoyed girl, "I'd like to give you an offer" He said, his grin still stretching across his face.
