Law frowned and crouched, eyes staring dissaprovingly at the puddle of stomach bile before him. "It seems our little thief barely manages to steal enough for a suitable meal" he narrowed the gray orbs at the faint traces of blood.
"She might have went to the market" Bepoe offered. Law nodded standing this was turning into a wild goose chase.
She closed her eyes forcing down the last bite, and sighed reaching into her boot only the pirates wallet remained, she opened her eyes staring out at the streets, people milled about smiling and laughing. Her stomach growled and she placed a hand on it, my apologies but we cant afford to waste all of it. Glancing down at her boots, her brand new boots her stomache churned; She had desperatly needed them and the sight of the knee high lace ups made her weak, yet it had taken a lot out of her funds. She ran her fingers along the thick canvas cloth.
"You there! Girl!" Her head snapped up, oh no Marines.
The group was clearing a path to her, she hissed jumping to her feet and vaulted herself into the crowd, "After her dont lose her this time!" She jumped over a small vendor cart, adrenaline already pumping through her veins; I think I would rather face Mister Pirate Captain, She stumbled turning a corner and ran through a less crowded street, the edges of her vision beginning to blur. No! I need to hide, somewhere anywhere! She dived around someone and saw orange, her boots skidded on the pavement in an attempt to stop but she coninued head first into something soft bounced off it and promptly landed on her butt.
She raised her head enough to look under her bangs, in front of her was the Pirate Captain and his furry polar bear. She shuffled back and stood on shaky legs, The thundering of Marine footsteps behind her, and a pirate in front of her, Looks like my luck finally ran out.
Law smirked, the woman stood staring at him, biting her bottom lip and what he could see of her face pulled into despair, Behind her the Marines halted. He chuckled, "Bepo" he held his hand out, the Nodachi was set in his palm.
"It's the Heart Captain!"
Law grinned "This will be simple"
"Drop the net!" His eyes narrowed, net? He looked up, a large glittering net caught the sunlight before falling on him and wrapped around his body, He fell with a thud the Nodachi clattering at his feet.
"Captain !" Bepo grabbed the net about to tug when electricity sparked across its surface, the polar bear recoiled with a yelp as Law writhed crying out. "It's an electrical seastone net! you're not getting out of it pirate! Catch the bear!" more marines burst from the alleyways and Bepo turned being forced to fend them off.
She swallowed turning to take in the amount of marines, then at the pirate, he was cringing from the electricity still traveling the net yet attempting to free himself, The Bear had sprung into a mix of karate and was too far to save his captain, the swarm of marines slowly closing in. The marine Captain was laughing too, his obnoxious laugh echoing in her ears. The click of a flintlock made her turn her attention to him, the gun was aimed for the pirates head, "I must thank you Trafalgar Law, I will be promoted once I bring your head to the MarineFold" her eyes widend as his finger squeezed the trigger and her left over adrenaline pulsed.
The gunshot rippled the air and Bepo turned, "Captain!" several Marines tackled him and the blood spray splashed the cement in front of him. He squirmed and lifted his head, "oh!"
Law blinked a few times, the little thief coughed and strayed a hand to her side clutching the bloody wound, the bullet wasnt in there but her body was on fire. In her free hand was the seastone net; she swayed on her knees still crouched in front of Law, she had protected him. "You-" she coughed again blood trickling between her lips before she spoke in the same raspy voice, "You...dont fight with dignity Mister Marine" she swayed fingers gripping the wound, and crumpled forward in a heap before Law.
The pirate stood taking in the girl laying in a growing pool of blood, then to the Marine Captain, the marine snarled "One trash is as good as another" he raised the flintlock at Law. The Heart captain frowned and lifted his hand lazily, "Room..." the blue dome flickered around them and Law popped his Nodachi open with a ring.
The Marines squealed as the sword glinted in the sunlight and body parts went up, Law slid his Nodachi back into it's sheath, Law glared raising his hands, the girls blood had seeped around his boots, "...Shambles..."
