~(Chapter 2)~

Nami woke up to the sound of indistinct chattering she squirmed, the images of Kid choking on his blood as he tried reaching for her, trying to let the words out he wanted to say too her, once more. As the hand dropped, knowing he couldn't live on anymore. The color drained from his face, his blood oozing out of his mouth and body from the bullets that pierced him severing Nami's lovers life. The horror of seeing his lifeless body that stared at her with sadness, that strong stench of gunpowder and car smoke mixing in with his blood in the air, she couldn't believe it. It was all a dream too her, she shot up from the bed the woman's eyes opened wide in terror, she felt the pain in her gut and every wound that was cut from the glass, she looked at them in agony a high pitched scream came from her throat. She was in deep denial her heart felt that lonely void tear open, she felt so lost and the way it was ripping her apart made her lose her sanity.

Her colorless eyes reflecting the very image of him dying, she stood up from the bed viciously yanking out the I.V's and the painkillers that were hooked up to the Bags filled with liquid.

However it didn't pain her, she felt numb to the pain as Nami ran out the room pushing the Doctor whose hands were covered in Tattoos out of her way who was right beside a redheaded thin male. They exchanged looks as the redhead held a hand out too him to help his fellow colleague up from the spot he fell on, the man's face twisted in a scowl. Taking that hand.

The two Doctors were startled, they anticipated she wouldn't wake up under the sedatives she was under it was a huge surprise too them indeed.

Nami's heart had been shattered into pieces from the agony she felt, it was suffocating her terribly, that feeling of claustrophobia kicking in immensely "Killer! Kid! Please tell me you're a-" she paused spotting the blonde male in a hospital gown standing beside Heat. The orange haired woman ran up too him throwing her arms around him. Her eyes spilling the tears that formed, letting out choked out sobs as she spoke.

"Where's Kid!? Tell me it's a joke and he's somewhere in here alive!" her desperate tone filled the empty halls.

Killer looked away she could see the tears coming out of the mask he wore, her heart dropped, her knees gave out she let out a wail. Her own sorrowfulness rubbed into Heat, he felt himself starting to cry all over again as the dread he felt came back, the mask he had on broke.

Nami's hands clutched at her chest as she cried out in grief, the look on her face pained the pair "Kid.. W.. Why!? Where is his body! Someone bring me too him NOW!" her demand echoing in the dead glacial halls.

The Doctor who was pushed out of the way grabbed her from the ground, forcefully dragging her back too her room with the help of his friend.

"No! Let me gooo! I need to see his face I need to touch him one more time! Get off of me!" she shouted in anguish as the girl pushed and kicked out of the hold he had on her. Landing a hard punch on his jaw, the male was taken aback. Letting her go, he nursed his jaw "This woman has the nerve.. She has lost her damn mind!" he retorted in a loud hiss, the redhead let out a snort his own amusement showing "Stop laughing" he ordered, shooting him a dark glare.

He regained his ground and pursued her, gripping her arm a little hard before she got far "Miss Nami-ya get your act together! You need to recover right now, you are going to make me do something I don't want to do" he reasoned with the grief-stricken Nami.

She stopped, falling onto her knees, yet again. Nami clawed at the ground as the tears fell uncontrollably, her throat squeezed as she sobbed. Her nails bled as she continued to dig into the cool floor, the Doctor tried his best to get her back on her feet, but to no avail, however Heat rushed too her side.

His tone rough and raspy "Stop it Nami just stop! There is nothing we can do right now we have to think of a way to set a funeral for him. First you need to recover that's our number one priority don't forget we have plans. Get your act together or they will booty juice you!" he yelled at her as he sobbed, Heat was trying his hardest on composing himself. The man himself was currently sorting his thoughts out, he was still trying to figure out who the hell murdered his only friend.

Killer was shocked, he didn't want to believe it himself, but he seen it with his own eyes that blurred as he was pulled out the car. He seen Nami passed out beside her only boyfriend that had died in front of her, he couldn't imagine how horrible the sight was. Having the man you love get taken from you in front of your very eyes.

His mind wasn't in the greatest state as Nami's, however the male who stabbed Nami had stayed and watched them get carried into the ambulance.

He was certain he felt those piercing cold eyes on them as they loaded them in the van, the man had an idea who did this too them, too her. his eyes went wide when he seen Nami's wounds his own heart squeezed when he glanced at her. His only regret was that he should of never gotten carried away with drinking the resentment he felt for himself was going too be hard to let go. Killer blamed himself for being irresponsible.

Nojiko arrived at the hospital without Bellemere but she of course had Robin with her, she already knew it was her own personal matter for them to handle, she also had Zoro with her come along, he was worried even though he didn't know her all too well, it was his true nature, pure instinct.

The green haired male was a bit taken aback to find out his own fiance had gotten into a car crash. Zoro wasn't able to believe it, he had thought she would come home with a big smile as she always had, but he was wrong. Albeit it was the only news that sobered Nojiko up, Heat was the one to relayed the message on the phone when he got the call right away, but luckily he didn't meet Zoro when he had dropped her off. It wasn't their time to meet. Just yet.

They rushed down long pure white corridors and they jumped on the elevator as soon as they caught sight of one. The had arrived on the 6th floor, the exact level where it was isolated the perfect floor for Nami, the Doctor was a keen one a one who has known all too well how the reaction was going to be. He had been smart to not let the other patients to be disturbed.

They found Namai who was giving the Doctor trouble, her cries echoing in the halls, Nojiko felt tears prick when she seen that Kid was no longer around.

Her senses snapped, she ran too her sister as her own lip quivered, throwing her arms around her in a tight embrace "Nami let it go, that's the only way for now. We will figure this out and I want to know." she paused, listening in to the woman who was lost. However Nami only continued to cry she dug her face into her sisters shoulder, she felt the cold void starting to fill little by little it didn't change the fact he is gone.

She leaned into Nami's ear, lowering her sweet voice in a soft whisper "Who the hell was it? And who was the one who did this? Who stabbed you and took him away? .. Collect yourself, this is a ride I'll take voluntarily with you, Robin is here as well." she comforted her as she cried in despair.

Nami only nodded and whimpered as they ushered her back in her room, the soft gesture her sister gave her was slowly calming her down. She didn't know what was her reality at that point, but deep down she knew she was going to kill that man, she engraved his face in her mind, the thirst for revenge started to grow.

The only person Nojiko considered a brother-in-law got killed in a blink of an eye, she felt herself wanting revenge as well. Not for just herself but for everyone in that room, they all knew it was on purpose.

The air thickened with the girls around, even Heat felt it in his soul that Kid was going to be the only thing Nami wanted to avenge, he never seen this side of her because Kid had kept her happy. Killer and Heat knew that the relationships they built with kid over the years as Nami had the man around was not going to be taken lightly, or be passed down as something that was a mere accident.

Everyone filled the hospital room while Robin was pulled out by the Doctor, his sullen frown appeared on that handsome face of his, "Are you the girls mother?" he asked as calmly as he could, the way he felt inside didn't waver or change.

He actually felt pissed that he got knocked on his jaw by a woman, a freaking woman! The thought of it was absurd acting as if it never happened. His twisted thoughts of getting payback deepend. But that was only going to happen when Nami was recovered.

Robin shook her head "No I'm not, but I'll tell you I'm as close to a mother too her, excuse me who are you?" her sweet soft voice darkened a bit.

She took in his facial features, it peaked her interest as the scruffy goatee tickled Robin's fancy, it was cute. As well as the small gold earrings he had on. But his Tattoos that showed while the sleeves were rolled up was something she was taking caution on, he was something dangerous, his eyes that had shadows under them was enough to tell her, he just wasn't normal. Not a normal Doctor at all.

His response from the woman enlightened him, he was pleased to see the woman was taking a good look at him, "I'm Doctor Trafalgar Law. It doesn't matter as long as someone of her family is here, she will be staying here for 3 days she can go home when I feel when it's the right time. Is that her fiance?" the question came out on a whim.

He bit on the side of his cheek wanting to face palm himself, such an absurd question came out. However, the Doctor couldn't help but wonder why was there something missing from her, as if the story of that woman had something more too her. He knew that woman was the type to cherish things and he deeply admired it.

No not admire, he was intrigued by it giving the amount of whores that would only laugh at the death of their own boyfriend, that is, in a twisted way.

Law waited for the lady to give him an answer, she took a moment before answering with a wry smile "Why can't she be released at this moment? It would benefit her in the long run, she will not be in the best state of mind if she is kept here. And if it's her fiance that bothers you, should I kick the worthless man out of here?" she offered, hoping the male would accept the offer. The presence of Zoro bothered her deeply, his face entirely annoyed her, she had a specific reason.

That man was not going to get the title of Brother-in-law.

Too her surprise the male nodded "Family only." a subtle smirk appeared, he felt selfish for saying that, but he didn't feel comfortable with the male around. His eyes followed everything that moved cautiously and he didn't find it pleasant, in fact he despised it.

Robin had given him a satisfied smile, a snort of amusement came out "and I say she has to stay for a purpose, that wound in her gut won't heal properly if she doesn't get the proper care or treatment. Ma'am I'm sorry for any inconveniences" she looked back at him with a blank gaze.

She didn't expect such a strict Doctor to have the floor in his control.

"That's fine, I guess... " she turned back to open the sliding door, her heels clacked across the colorful mosaic floor making her way towards Zoro.

A hand placed on his neck, she gave a firm squeeze "Sorry but you have to leave, for now. This if only for Family at the moment I'll call you back if they allow you to stay" her wicked smile scared the male, he got up with a nod.

He had his head down as he walked out of the room, knowing full well he wasn't accepted by the sister, yet. He knew his place but still he felt like it was the right thing to do. Just to see if she was okay, nothing more towards the meaning of wanting to check on her. The time he had wasted of coming to check on her was regretted he was unwelcomed the whole time.

However, Heat followed him to the elevator he was suspicious of him for an odd reason, not liking the fact he had showed up with the sisters to check on Nami. If it was a political marriage and she didn't care he would brush him off, other than that he wanted to know what kind of relationship he had with her. Albeit the Doctor watched the 2 gentlemen walk out of the room with Robin trailing behind to have a nice talk with the man who waited outside.

Heat had reached the man, gripping his shirt tightly as he threw him against the wall "Who are you and why did you come if my friend has never talked to you. What is your relationship with Nami?" his voice in a low growl, he clenched his jaw. The seething anger in his blood, he didn't like him not one bit. But he wanted to get to know him before he went judging the man based on looks.

"Calm down I'm nothing to that witch as too why I came here.. It was because I wanted to check on her, she is my fiance but that's based on a political marriage contract. I see you are relentless and you won't stop pursuing me until you get your answer. Does that response make you happy?" he huffed in irritation, his gaze intensed under the hold Heat had on him.

Heat relaxed at the words "Sorry I got a little carried away, want to smoke a cigarette for compensation? I never doubted Nami, it was just that it was suspicious. I hold no grudge, but If Kid was still alive, he would kill you" his tone apologetic, he felt entirely guilty for putting the young man under pressure. "No worries, I would have done the same. I hold nothing for her just concerned I guess I could smoke for a bit" Zoro sighed in defeat, giving him a nudge on his hand to release.

The crafty man let go of him, he had a frown, entirely embarrassed of what he did.

Robin was shocked that the Doctor had explained everything what he had seen at the crime scene, her jaw dropped feeling utterly heartbroken she didn't expect that Kid died just like that. She sunk down the bench beside the room as she felt a wave of nausea the male frowned at her and gave her barf bag. Her stomach betrayed her and she vomited the bile in the bag Robin didn't think she was going to be affected that way. The Doctor gave her a frown, he got the gist of how dear the guy was.

He walked back into the room as he shut the door. His gaze softened a little when he seen the sister was having a hard time talking to Nami who was in a vegetable mode, he wanted to let her rest. That was the main rules he broke, he allowed them to see her when visitation hasn't started, after all it was his hospital he owned but his intuitions urged him to kick all of them out.

"You all have to leave, I only allowed to break some rules because you it was right to have you guys know where she is at and what state she is in. I'm sorry but visitation hours will start around 12:30 P.M." he frowned when Nojiko looked at him with tears in her eyes, she was sad that at a dire moment she wasn't going to be around Nami. She blinked for a couple seconds before getting up from her seat, giving Nami the warmest hug she could give.

"I'll be back, tomorrow I need some sleep, you get yours too" she spoke softly planting a kiss on Nami's head, however the orange haired woman didn't budge. But the unhappy look showed, she was going to be alone yet again, the door slit shut as Law ushered the visitors out towards the elevator.

"Shachi go and take them down to the exit"

"Alright I'll be right back try to hold it down while I'm gone" he threw his glasses on his face, the small smile he wore lightened the atmosphere around the girls. Law heard the women giggling as they left the floor, he took in a deep breath and sat in the chair next to her bedside, he glanced at her.

The woman's tears fell, she broke and looked at the man beside her "Why are you here? Can't you go and watch someone else?" she questioned out of frustration. It started to bother the Doctor, the look on her face touched him inside "No I can't since you need someone to watch you, forget about me leaving here I'm curious. Do you know who did this? That body of his didn't look it was an accident. I have no intentions of telling the police if you want I can get you a lead on him." his tone smooth and cold, he had his arms crossed as he sat back in the chair he sat on.

The news too Nami pulled her out of that slump, she knew this man was dangerous, he was something to avoid but she couldn't help but take his offer, "What's in it for you? I know these offers don't come free and I do know the face not the name" Nami emphasized on the last words, he gave her a thoughtful look. Perhaps he wanted to see what she could do, yeah that's what he thought at the moment, but it was interesting, her attitude amazed him. A wicked smile came on his face "Be my model. I guarantee it will benefit you and you can get everything you want.. That's if you trust me and follow my lead, it won't be so hard once you got it all" she gave him a cold glare.

Nami gave him a nod "Fine I'll do it, but... " she got off the bed and sat on his lap, yanking him by his tie, meeting his eyes with a hard glare as her face darkened "You will be the one to make me smile again and if this isn't too much do a proper funeral for my dead lover. Otherwise, you can forget about this offer you gave me", her menacing tone amused the man. He gave out a wry chuckle, impressed that her request was absurd "You think you are able to make demands like that? I'll take that interesting request to heart then. That doesn't mean you will get it easily hun" he thought about her being on a cover magazine, he intended her to work hard she was the perfect girl for it. Law felt like she would be famous she was a walking eye candy, she was everything a man wanted and his intentions was to make her the most wanted girl in history.

For his own ambitions, to hell with her love feelings, just for the pleasure.

Robin drove to a lake her heart lightly crumbled away 'How could you die so easily? You said that you won't leave her no matter what' she thought, her memories of him started flashing in like a flickering light. Her tears covered her face.

"Robin! Where's Nami? I got her a big bear and a bouquet of red & white roses. Do you think she will love them? I can't wait for her reaction I'm so happy. And this Necklace, I got it custom made necklace the bracelet came with it but I got something engraved in it" his excitement broke the girl out of her stupor, she gave him a funny look "Don't be silly, of course she would love it. Anything you give her makes her happy-go-lucky, you're forgetting who can do that." she reminded him.

He gave her a nervous look, his palms sweating he kept drying them on his handkerchief, it was Nami's birthday she had barely turned 16 he loved her but he wasn't going to go out with her at such a young age he wanted to officially waited till she was 18. Robin approved of his progress, she was rooting for him to push harder that was the first time he got her something from the bottom of his heart. The only time he remembered her birthday, and first.

"Maybe if you stop being so nervous she will be excited, first off you got to turn off these obnoxious ass lights. Second you have to stop sweating like a pig, third just relax. No other male would act like this if they ever had a chance to stick around. Now smile" she pushed the side of his lips up with 2 fingers, giving him a light-hearted laugh. The girl sure loved when it came to Kid giving gifts, the whole thing was plain hilarious for her.

"Damn you! And I thought we were making progress over you calling me such absurd names. Disappointing" he gave her a scowl before smiling. He had did what she had said, but the only thing that stayed was his nervousness, a big grin came on as he hid himself behind the bear to surprise Nami, Robin went over to the cake hiding herself in the pantry. A short laugh came out of her throat, they all froze when the door started unlocking. There it was again.

She came in behind Heat who turned the light on, the pair being followed by Killer. They all were wondering why the lights had been turned off the male in front of Nami looked for a light switch. Nami groaned "Heat stop fooling around turn on the light already!" she touched around the walls, unable to find it herself, the lights came on when Heat found it.

The male gave her a cunning grin "Happy birthday Nami!" she seen the present's around the room, a pang of emotional happiness came in. "Thank you guys but where's Kid?" she walked over to the bear hugging it, feeling the fluffiness, her hands went behind it she felt a muscular arm.

"What the hell?" she lifted the bear a big smile tugged at her lips, the man she was looking for was hidden behind the bear the whole time. "Happ-" he was interrupted by a stolen kiss.

His eyes went wide, when she pulled back she had a mischievous grin "Those are mine.. That's the best birthday present I could ever get" Kid blushed a hand covered her eyes "Just stop Nami! We said we would wait" the embarrassed voice had his friends roaring in laughter.

"Happy birthday Nami!" Robin popped out of the pantry with the cake, a bunch of candles light as placed it on the table. She adored Nami who clung onto Kid, albeit, she didn't approve it. It was still to early for her, she wanted Nami to at least wait a few more years.

A Nojiko came out of the hallway with bottles of different kinds of liquor, a smug smile on her face "Naami~~ are you ready?" she asked after she was done blowing out the candles. "Oh no you didn't! Nojiko put those damn bottles back those were for me!" Kid shouted in irritation, his cheeks flushed as Nami sat on him, dominating the man to stay put.

"Yeah! Bring them here, let's have fun it's my birthday why don't we have fun Kid?" she looked at him with a saccharine smile his face become redder. The night he didn't expect to get dominated by a woman, who the hell was in control? He wasn't expecting Nami too take over the wheel. It was supposed to be him who had taken control over her, after all it was his plan to take things slow. The male couldn't resist such a rich beautiful woman, his love for her was toxicating.

"By the way Nami lift your hair up, I got something for you." he prompted, taking out the box that had a golden necklace and bracelet.

Kid took the necklace out as Nami had lifted her hair up, the other's gathered to take pictures of the pair, with wide cunning grins on their faces "What is it Kid?" she asked, he only grunted. The golden rose necklace hung by the stem, his first initials engraved into the small plate beside it, the other part of the necklace that had her initials was hidden by his shirt.

He clasped the crab lock "Now you can look" his voice gentle and deep, Kid pour his heart out for the gifts to be costume made the jewelry he got wasn't fake. All of them stainless sterling silver or soufeel types, since he didn't look like it but deeply inside he was truly high maintenance. Nami didn't take it for granted she took it to heart.

He slid the box too Nami, she gasped at the beautiful bracelet, it shined with little white diamonds the band on top engraved 'Till death do us apart', Nami looked at Kid and hugged him "We came a long way didn't we?" her smile didn't fade it stayed. Kid nodded "Yeah."

Another memory came across "Hey Robin we should all go out to eat, after were all done eating I got a huge surprise for you girls!" his subtle smirk grew, his plans for a Yacht party was kicked into gear. The only thing they needed was to get their clothes, however Nami was excited for whatever Kid had planned every time he had something planned he never disappointed her.

Robin remembered them all wearing white formal dresses. The only thing that stood out was Nami's outfit Kid had bought for her, she had on a sheeny knit skort romper, the deep V-neck line exposing her bust had, a draped front with pleated details. Her banded waistline fitted perfectly along with the tulip overlay she eyed it with awe, an adjustable cami straps led into strappy back design. Nami was happy Kid got her the outfit she desired for a long time, she begged for it a lot of times.

So he did surprise her, the plan was to have the yacht party a special moment for them. Nami insisted that Kid would bring his friends, but she got a no and he only allowed Heat and Killer most of the buddies he had always hitted on her. Except for one his brother like friend, Wire. However, they all made him uncomfortable when she was around them. Kid specifically devoted that she wouldn't meet any of his friends, only time they would meet was around the time he brought her around his deals.

The memory of the yacht party was embedded in her mind, it indeed was a iconic one because Nami invited her friends, girls of course. And surely Kid had smacked some of the women who tried to throw themselves on him, her only friends she actually cherished betrayed her.

Kid had got angry with her about befriending people who only care about getting things out of her, or intentionally planned to take them from her. Robin was on his side because she had went through the same conversation with her, albeit, it made her a lot more wiser and a lot more mean to other people she didn't know.

That very party changed Nami into a different person, a person Kid never really thought she would turn into. She had lost some trust in him that time because she spotted a girl on him, her instinct was to kick his ass but she seen it the other way, in her heart she knew he wasn't that type.

Instead she pulled the girl off of him by the hair, the look she had on was very terrifying. Nami started kicking her ass. She never imagined doing something like that to one of her so called friends, or she just never thought she would have too. So he was the one who had to pull her off, that girl didn't go home with not only bruises. She went home with a broken ankle, that very moment Kid had fell more in love with her, Robin swore that the party was the best she had ever been in.

Nami was like the most dominating women on earth, even Robin praised her for doing what she did. The girl was one of the ones she caught bad talking behind Nami's back, she did give her a black eye that time.

But it wasn't enough to keep her away and it didn't stop her from trying to ruin their relationship.

The memory itself made Robin laugh as she cried, she specifically remembered on Nami's 18th birthday her and Kid were outside with Nojiko who was playing Volleyball with Nami. She was having a brother-sister bonding moment, "Kid have you ever thought of marrying Nami one day?" she was curious, the response she got was a hum.

He was looking at Nami with soft warming eyes it took him 3 minutes to answer "Yeah, but I don't know what kind of wedding we would have. I want it to be unique and hmm something that no one has ever done.. Catch my drift?" she nodded in understanding, she knew what he had meant.

Robin cleared her throat "I'm sure Nami would want to plan it all on her own.. When do you plan on marrying her you rough bastard?" her remark had a hint of playfulness, he shot her a hard glare "Jeez! Stop calling me names already, that.. I don't know if I would live long enough to have one with her I planned on marrying her when she turned 25" his gaze drifted back towards the Nami who was spiking the ball over to Nojiko's side. She got a score.

"It Nami's serve, the score is 09-10!" Wire shouted, he had came into town for the only sole reason of moving pounds of cocaine into the town. He was only going to be around for Nami's birthday Kid knew he had a girlfriend so he didn't care if he was around her, the only thing that worried him was that male showing up. That very menacing male, he was only going to pick up the cocaine Wire brought in, but that night was when Kid started having troubles. Troubles with his boss.

"What makes you say that Kid? Is there something that you're having trouble with?" she asked in a solemn manner, that didn't sit well with her "Nah everything is fine, why would I have trouble?" he had a fake smile. Robin was smart enough to tell something was wrong "Kid don't lie, if Nami is going to be involved in it at least tell me a little hint." he sighed in defeat. Giving her persistent smart nature, she was concerned for him "Basil Hawkins. That's all" the name tugged at her gut.

A car pulled up beside the beach they were on in little garden, the isolated green land that Kid planned for Nami's birthday had a bitter twist to it. She missed Kid who walked over to a hoard of cars, but Robin watched, she felt a nasty vibe from the men. A blonde male who walked over to her greeted her nicely "Hello, sorry for the interruption. What are you guys up to?" his monotonous voice a little deep, the triangular shape above his brows gave her a chill down her spine.

She backed away, letting out a fake small giggle, he bought it "It's fine. Nothing just here for my step sisters birthday what's up? What made you come and greet someone like me?" she asked flatly. His cold red eyes laid on Nami, she felt disturbed, her body froze when she seen him staring at her "Hey are you going to keep staring at my girl like that?" Kid growled at the man.

He chuckled at him, amused over Kids choice of words he broke his gaze on Nami.

She forgot how to breathe for a second, those eyes were inhumane it was a spine chilling encounter. However, she didn't know who he was, no one did. Robin cleared her throat she didn't miss how he didn't answer her, but she did notice Kids busted lip and a few bruises he was covering with his shirt.

"Eustass you should watch yourself.. Because she will be next." he said as he walked passed Kid, he clenched his eyes shut. He left out a grunt as he sat next to Robin on the hood of his car, she didn't know what the exchange was but it was unpleasant Nami walked over to kid "What happened to you dear? Tha-" he grabbed her hand before she could touch him.

"Let's not talk about it, nothing happened finish your game Nojiko is waiting" he looked down as he seen the hurt look on Nami's face, but she couldn't disobey him. He was doing a lot for her, she was not going to pressure him Nami wanted him to talk when he felt like it. Robin felt Kid grip her arm firmly to grab her attention "Robin if something happens to me.. I want you to go to my house there will be something for you guys." he spoke in a irritated voice, she looked at him in disbelief "Kid what a-" he held a hand up.

Kid shook his head "Don't ask keep this between us. I don't want Nami to worry" he had yet again, a fake smile.

Robin snapped out her thoughts, realization hit her "That is impossible." she said aloud as she ran back inside the car, reversing it she didn't want to believe it.

The man who had killed Kid and sent Nami in the hospital was Basil Hawkins.

That very same creep who showed up at Nami's birthday.

A couple days had passed since Robin had shown up at Kids house, she unlocked his door with a spare key. She didn't know what she was looking for so she searched through everything, but she didn't find anything, she went through everything and every single thing he owned.

There it was Inside the basement, sitting next to the pool he had and a lot of things where in the kitchen area. A note sat beside the piles of wooden boxes, she ran to it picking it up and opening fast.

She read it carefully 'By the time you guys have read this I'm already dead, but the house and everything I had will be yours keep them. Don't let anyone take my things I want you girls to have something we built years of memories. Tell Nami to move on I want her to be happy and don't let her pick a guy who isn't caring. He has to be a caring man just like I have been, she deserves better. I done nothing to make things better for her or for myself I'm pretty sure I made shit a lot more complicated then I had anticipated. No one will be going there to hurt you guys it was just Nami and me that they wanted, but another thing. Don't keep her there in that house with you guys, it will only drag you in trouble as I said before Nami has made my life and years less troubling they were the best that I had, it was truly a blessing I met you all. Heat and Killer, Wire should be helping you guys with whatever you have planned, but be smart those men are nothing to play with. I went through hell of dealing with them by myself, just be smart that's all. I will love Nami and watch over her on the other side, no I didn't plan it I just had no way of avoiding or escaping this haha It was fate. Stay safe, they don't stay in one spot if you want to find them you will have to dive in places you never thought of, they are everywhere. By the way please give Nami the rest of those presents I bought that I wasn't able to give too her.' Robin fell on her knees, her hand covering her eyes that had tears falling out like a waterfall.

She smiled, a very sad smile "I did what you asked." her elegant tone bounced off the lifeless basements walls.

However, she didn't waste time it's his funeral day. She grabbed the wooden box that had Nami's name on it with Kids handwriting she was gravely sad.

Nami arrived at the graveside, she knew why they didn't chance it, no they didn't want to push their luck. The Doctor she was with gave her a phone number, "And why don't you come with me?" she asked in a toneless voice, he gave her a raised brow "No one would be happy to see me around would they?" his voice coldly clipped.

She gave it a thought, then the answer was unverified "We won't know until we try, stop being a jerk and come already" the demand didn't seem to work so she walked over to his side. Nami opened the Door before he could lock it "Come on now" she was losing her patience, he growled.

"You bossy little girl you won't get very far talking to me like that"

Nami grunted, she straightened out the black vintage style crossover collar dovetail dress she had on. It was the only one Kid talked about her wearing before he died of 'Old age', in this case she was wearing it because it was his wish. She fixed the veil on her mourning black hat, the ribboned flowers on it messed with the fabric. He walked beside her, when they seen her fiance he scooted away from her, she gave a exasperated growl.

The woman got closer clinging her arm around his with her head held high, her fiance got a little mad "Nami stop fooling around and get over here." she ignored him, Law got a little anxious "Hey your fiance wants you, shouldn't you be going too him instead of me?" he tried shaking her arm off.

"Why should I be getting comforted by him?" she mocked, the male slapped her arm "Stop being childish and do what a normal person would, even if it was a political marriage." he nudged Nami on her side with a glare. Nami puffed her cheeks "Whatever" she let go of his arm.

"You should respect me a little it's embarrassing Nami, If I had been someone else surely they wouldn't care enough to show up at some funeral. Nor would they let you slide off easily by holding another man's arm." he said in her ear with a sharp gruff voice, his breath tickled her ear.

She felt herself lay her head on his shoulder "If that's what you want. I guess" her tone sharp, she eyed the male who had his hands in his pockets beside them. He was in deep thought, is what she had anticipated a frown grew on her face she didn't want to be clinging too her fiance.

He caught her staring, a smug smirk came into play, she stuck her tongue at him, giving him a kick on his leg, he chuckled at her attitude. They reached Killer who was reading something, she broke her hold on the man she was leaning on "What is that paper?" her curiosity overflowed her feelings.

He caught her staring, a smug smirk came into play, she stuck her tongue at him, giving him a kick on his leg, he chuckled at her attitude. They reached Killer who was reading something, she broke her hold on the man she was leaning on "What is that paper?" her curiosity plagued her feelings.

"It's a note from Kid. You know what I feel some eyes watching us, we all should hurry and say our goodbyes right now. No offense, since you didn't die Nami they're sure to come after you sooner or later. Or they're watching your movements." he warned Nami, her fiance scoffed "Uh you gotta be kidding right?" Killer shook his head.

"Nami It's best if you leave town it would help you out in the long run. Honestly I can careless if we take care of you and guard you, but they will attack you when we let our guards down, I'm too afraid of you getting hurt." he reasoned as softly as he could Killer didn't want to hurt her feelings, no matter what. His eyes stayed on Nami, her expression changed, she started shaking "Why?" her eyes shot up at him wide open. He felt even more pained seeing her sad at the demand, but he knew what he was doing, it was all for her sake and for Kid's wishes, he slipped the paper in her purse "Read it when you leave." she nodded at the order. Nami had no energy to fight or argue with him, Heat was just as sad as he was to send the girl off.

Law was already thinking of places to take her away, albeit he knew it wasn't going to be easy "Can I say my goodbyes for now.. Please." her miserable tone broke through that fake happy tone she had, it was a nice try. Zoro felt the air thicken with melancholy, she was in the most desolate state a it was as if she lost an elder person, but worse.

The Doctor took it into thought at the words Killer said he was right on the dot. He admire the man for being sensible, but that didn't change the fact what the situation was with Nami in the open and certainly they wanted her dead right away. His mind drifted to her man who caused so much crap to get a mob of people after her, he didn't think that her man was one of those types.

From the look on Nami's face he knew that he was something special. Killer handed him the note Kid left behind "Read it and figure out what you can do for her, you volunteered on helping her right? I want to see what you got up in your sleeve prove too me that you can handle it." his bleak statement had Law become a bit nervous, an amusing chill.

"Got it, but it won't be as fast and easy as you think."

A smug smile appeared on his face, he turned to face Zoro "Now will you be acting as a fiance or will you just be some man who is just there for profit?" his smart retort pissed her fiance off, a hardened glare appeared "Neither. I'm doing something anyone would do my brother only cares about the money, she isn't my ATM I'm neither going to get close too her if I so happened to get close too her then so be it." he brushed him off, however, Law looked at him as if he hit his head. Killer didn't approve of him, even if he meant no harm.

At this point everyone was waiting in line to get close too her.

Killer grimaced, he wanted to kick the man's ass, he was unable to accept her being around anyone else but Kid. That was not his decision or his business to pry in but he was still in charge Kid basically said someone suitable should be with Nami, but none of the men in front of him were suitable in his eyes. Of course Robin and Nojiko thought the same, he wasn't the only one, which bugged the hell out of him. He was being selfish on Kids part, if his friend was alive he would probably kick Killer's ass for being a jerk, a selfish jerk. Then he would beat his own self up for going along with it.

Nami stood by his casket, staring at his face in tears she grabbed his ice cold hand out of reflex she hesitated on touching him again after she pulled back and the moment she touched it she broke down. Her knees gave out on her, she felt her throat closing on her she took off her hat and set it under his hands "K-Kid.. Why was it you instead of me? Y..You were hiding so much from me.. What was it?" she asked hoarsely. She saw a piece of chain on his neck her face lit up, however she wailed when she took it out.

It was the necklace she gotten for him on their anniversary, the silver chain had a medium sized cross, blue sapphire stones embedded in the cross. The memory clear as day, he was so happy to have the necklace he didn't show that he wore it half the time she assume it was on his wall in his room, but she was wrong. She had gotten a ring with the same stone, but a complete different shape, the thick band of the ring itself had the blue stones in a infinity sign with a heart in the middle of it.

The girl choked on her sobbs, she took the ring off and slid it on his ring finger "This is where I was supposed to put my ring on when we had our wedding. I never thought that this day would come fast, you lied we were supposed to grow old together, we were going to have 5 children. And have a big house with dogs, our future was going to be the best and filled with blissful moments, and here you are you big dummy.." she paused as she tried to collect herself.

Robin hugged her, she closed her eyes her own feelings crushed as she heard Nami's painful speech, it was too much for her. The girl understood what Nami was going through, she knew she wasn't going to let it go, nor let it slide.

"You said you had a very big surprise for me on our 6th year anniversary! And it's only 4 days away.. You told me you wouldn't get killed no matter what happened, no matter what happened with your deals. But this wasn't one, so what did you do!? You loved me right? Then why didn't you depend on me a little? Despite our differences Kid you knew I understood you the most." she couldn't bear the despair she felt her grip on his hand tightened, Nami wasn't going to be the same after the parting. She was going to get her revenge, her hatred for the person who stabbed her was only the beginning of something malicious, she took out 2 necklaces out of her purse.

Nami switched the one she had on her neck for silver chain the sat under his cross, the stainless steel silver chain had stayed on Kid for years, it was one of the necklaces he bought the first time with his own money. She knew how special it was for him, Nami traded the chain for her own necklace, the only heart shaped necklace with his picture and hers that held so much meaning for her.

"That's my parting gift.. I love you and I don't think I could get over this love, it was my first and only love I had in my entire life, whoever did this Kid… I'll kill them, I'll make their death become so painful my love" she said in vindictive tone. Her thoughts plagued with the compassionate moments they shared, it truly was a blessing for Nami, she stood up. Leaning in to plant a kiss on his forehead, she knew it was going to be hard for her to live without him, however, she took his phone.

The most twisted thing she ever did. Too herself and for her own benefit.
