Luffy – "Ah, so that's how it is…a mystery hole huh?"

Usopp – "No Luffy I just explained it to you how could it be a mystery. It's a hole where you sti-"

Zoro – "Oi! Everyone! There's a Battleship on our tail!

*SHC runs to the deck*

Franky – "Annoying little pests they are…don't worry crew we'll Coup-De-Burst so far they wouldn't dream of catching up to us."

Luffy – "Yosh! Let's go Franky!"

Nami – "Wait"

Luffy, Franky – "Ehhh?"

Nami – "The battleship's not…moving…"

Chopper – "Everyone look! There's something moving in the water!"

Usopp – "J- J- Jimbei you should g- go take a look"

Jimbei – "I'm sensing…someone familiar"

Luffy – "Who is it Jimbei?"

*The creature rises out of the water with a great splash carrying something wrapped in its tail. The crew stands back and anticipates the worst with jaws agape, the strange creature and its passenger come into view *

Nami – "It's…It's…THE EMPRESS!"

Luffy – "Hancock!"

SHC – "EHHHHHHH?"

Sanji – "Oh mademoiselle, what a lucky day to be alive. Being in your presence…madam…I shall cherish this moment for as long as I live!"

*Hancock turns to Sanji and smiles*

Hancock – "Mero Mero Mellow"

*Sanji turns to stone and the SHs step back*

Luffy – "Hancock why did you do that he's my nakama"

Hancock – "I'm sorry Luffy…but you left me all alone for these years, and I had plenty of time to think. You never returned my love and quite frankly, I think, you used me the whole time. Everything I did for you, I loved you Monkey D. Luffy and you never returned it"

*Hancock dramatically falls to the ground in tears, Luffy walks over to her and kneels beside her*

Luffy – "Hancock I-"

Hancock – "Hush Luffy…we wont be speaking to each other for a long time because you wouldn't be able to move your lips when you're a stone statue"

*Hancock attacks Luffy, Luffy dodges the attacks, and stops Hancock's leg based attack in mid-air. Hancock's face turns red and tears start to run down her cheeks. She bites her lip and lowers her leg. Luffy with one hand on his hat, stares at the ground in disappointment. The crew waits, mouths agape and in awe of the power Luffy and Hancock posses*

Luffy – "Now Hancock, tell me what's going on"

*Hancock releases Sanji from his petrified form and kneels in-front of Luffy wrapping her arms around his waist and sobbing. Luffy puts his treasured hat on her head and folds his arms*

Hancock – "Luffy! I'm so sorry…I love you so much and I can't kill you, even if it means the death of me and my country"

*SHC gasps and Sanji scratches his head in confusion*

Luffy – "Hancock who's making you do this and why? Does this have to do with the newspaper article?"

Hancock – "News? It's in the news already? Luffy you have to get far away from here and quick! Akainu- Akainu's on that ship!

Robin – "You mean…the Admiral? Is he after Luffy?"

Hancock – "No, not right now, he's following orders from the WG…he's supposed to escort me here. My job; the reason why I am here, is to prove my innocence. By capturing then taking Luffy, under Akainu's supervision, back to Impel down to be imprisoned until his execution date. If I don't comply…they will have me executed, and they will use the buster call on my island Amazon Lily"

Robin – "Buster ca-"

*Robin gasps as she remembers hurtful memories from her childhood and her experience with Buster calls. The SHC are speechless and their Captain is still upright with his hands crossed and grim expression. He then pulls the crying princess away from himself and gets on one knee, tilting her face up and wiping the tears from her eyes*

Luffy – "I'll go with you, to Impel Down"

*The crew lets out a synchronized "NANII?" and Hancock is on the verge of tears again*

Chopper – "Luffyyy…"

Usopp – "Wait a second Luffy, just think about what you're doing here- just think about it- this is not the only way Luffy!"

Luffy – "Usopp, I've already decided"

*Luffy, still looking into the eyes of the tearful Shichibukai, smiles confidently and locks lips with her, Hancock sheds more and more tears while gazing into Luffy's caring brown eyes, Luffy pulls her tight to his chest and kisses every part of her face, gently rubbing her back. Hancock could feel his warm breath against her skin*

Zoro – "Luffy…are you serious about this? How do we know she's not lying?"

Luffy – "I know…Yosh!"

*Luffy stands up and flexes until he finds a comfortable pose*

Luffy – "Hancock, I'm ready for my statue"

Hancock – "Luffy my powers don't work on you"

Luffy – "Give it a try!"

*Hancock leans over and kisses Luffy, then continues to petrify him, in a few seconds Luffy is turned to stone, the crew shows a mix of fear and sadness, while Salome wraps his tail around the Empress and her beloved then makes a dash tail first into the water*

Chopper – "Luffy…"

*On the marine ship Akainu waits, newspaper in hand. Salome slithers onto the ship then brings his tail up over his head to show the Empress and her latest victim. The Empress coughed and heaved, relieved however, to see that Luffy is without a scratch*

Akainu – "I see he didn't put up a fight…what powerful influence you have Hancock-sama"

*Hancock glared at Akainu with what was close to a snarl stamped across her face*

Akainu – "You will both be staying in a cell until we reach Impel Down, you will both be imprisoned when you get to Impel Down; the only difference between you and Mugiwara is…he will be executed while you just stand there and watch"

*Akainu picks up the petrified Luffy and Hancock's heart jumps out of her chest"

Akainu – "Straw Hat Luffy you are very lucky seeing that I'm acting on orders, looks like I'm going to wait a week or so before my ambitions can be fulfilled. Men! Get some sea stone for these lovers and escort them to their chamber"

Hancock – "Wait!"

*Hancock releases Luffy from his petrified state. Luffy regains consciousness and looks around, he catches glimpse of Akainu walking away*

Luffy – "You..."

*Akainu turns around with a smirk, turns his back to Luffy and Hancock again then disappears. Luffy and Hancock are handcuffed and taken to their chamber. The guards escorted them in, removed their handcuffs, and then locked the cell door*

Luffy – "This whole cell, it's made of sea stone"

*Luffy looks over to Hancock who is weeping again, he sits next to her and chuckles as he notices her deeply blushing through her tears. He leans back with his arms supporting his head, and meditates. Hancock lays her head on Luffy's lap much to Luffy's surprise*

Luffy – "What am I going to do with you Hancock? You're causing so much trouble for yourself"

Hancock – "Luffy, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry Luffy!"

*Hancock starts to sob uncontrollably, Luffy's pants are now soaked in her tears*

Luffy – "Hancock! Wait! Wait!"

*Hancock stops crying and sits up to dry her eyes, Luffy gets up, takes off his pants and lays them on the ground to dry, he sits down again next to a red face Hancock, grabbing her face in embarrassment*

Hancock – "Luffy Lu- Lu- Luffy don't you think it's a bit too early for this?"

Luffy – "What are you talking about Hancock?"

Hancock – "I can't believe Luffy's ready for children already! This is exactly how Elder Nyon said it would be! I'll name the first one after his father, and surely Luffy will want to name one after his brother Ace. If it's a girl she'll be named Anaisa. Oh Luffy will be the perfect father! I think I'm ready too!"

*Hancock begins to daydream only to have her momentum thrown off by Luffy's voice*

Luffy – "Yosh! I think they're dry! ShiShi"

Hancock – "Wait Luffy! I accept"

*Hancock stands up and begins taking off her clothes. Luffy stares puzzled yet intrigued*

Luffy – "Accept what…Hancock…"

*The Empress drops to her knees and kisses Luffy. Luffy, speechless and weakened by this strange new feeling…She pulls away, leaving Luffy speechless and turned on, never losing contact with Luffy's eyes she lays on her back and mouths the word "come"*

Luffy – "Usopp said something about this part, where exactly do I find this mystery hole?"

*Luffy searches the empresses body, both of them letting out obscene sounds. Hancock helping him solve the 'mystery'. Luffy instantly forgot the rest of Usopp's instructions, leaving the rest to instinct*

Luffy – "Hancock?"

Hancock – "HAAAAI~"

Luffy – "Don't scream"

*Luffy covered her mouth with his as he started to pleasure the princess. Hancock occasionally gasping for air*

Hancock – "Lu- LUFFY AHhHH Luffy… Haiiiii~"

Luffy – "Boa- DAMMIT"

*The empress and her beloved are in ecstasy as they climax. Moans and screams of ecstasy echo throughout the ship, their pleasure so intense that they do not notice the ship crumbling around them. Salome slithers into the cell with a sack tied to his neck, unnoticed by the lovers; he picks up their clothes and wrapped his tail around them. Soon the boat disintegrates and everyone including the two lovers and Salome fall in the water. Salome wastes no time swimming towards the nearest island. Once on the island the two lovers are on their backs gasping for air*
