Anyway just cause you responded so well on the first chapter I got in the mood to write the second chapter, so enjoy and please don't forget to review!
This was the third day she spent following Ace and his supposedly brother Sabo, did that that they were related as well?
It had not been easy, they seemed to feel her watching them, which made them more on guard, and it did not help with her grandfather trying to catch her. He'd been in the forest looking for her ever since he'd been told that she did not live with Makino in the village anymore.
Him being in the forest was one of the most disastrous things she'd seen since she moved in, he'd rooted up trees from the ground, broken mountains with his 'fist of love', he'd even successfully destroyed several of her hiding spots while at it.
And she felt like she had to do something to pay him back, what was the saying, treat someone like they treat you? Or something like that at least.
She'd been keeping and eye open, waiting for the old man to return to the village for the night. And finally, after several hours of waiting did he finally retire for the night, and she could finally get to work.
As morning dawn she lay sprawled out on a large boulder where she could clearly view the surrounding clearing without problem.
A large smile dawned her lips even through her exhaustion and she had to stifle a giggle. She sat up and looked around herself; nothing looked out of place, untouched in the cold morning air.
"Shi shi shi shi, gramp's gonna have a fit when he sees my surprise" she turned around and fingered the handmade ladder leading up to the surrounding mountains, just in case something went wrong, she nodded to herself and seated herself and waited.
It didn't take long before a rustle of leaves caught her attention, Garp always made his presence known before attacking someone, had he changed tactics?
"Hey Sabo, hurry it up will ya!"
Crap, she hadn't thought of that, why the hell were they here, and why just here?! She had to stop them before they set anything not meant for them off, but how?
She picked up a small rock and threw it across the clearing where the blond boy, Sabo had just stepped out of the bushes to join the waiting Ace.
They both looked up and spotted her, Ace took on a fighting stance while Sabo just gripped his metal pole in a steadier hold.
"Who the hell are you?!"
"Stop!"
"Huuuh?"
"I said stop, if you don't want to get caught in something really unpleasant" she pointed down to the ground to streangthen her point "trap"
"A trap? Where?" Sabo stepped up beside Ace and bent down to take a better look at the ground "I can't see anything"
"It's there! Just trust me, it's not meant for you so just go back"
"And why the hell should I trust you, I don't know you so don't tell me wh-" his sentence was caught off by a boom not far away from the clearing.
"Wha?" Sabo exclaimed, slightly unsteady after the vibration running through the ground.
"Grandpa"
"Old man"
Ace and her sighed at the same time, Ace looked up at her in shock and confusion "you know the old man?" his eyebrows furrowed together.
"Grandpa, he's my grandpather, and the one I set up the trap for" she crossed her arms "I'm Luffy, and if you don't want to get caught in crossfire, follow my directions"
Ace stood with his mouth hanging open, droplets of sweat pooling up on his forehead.
"Ace, come on, he's coming closer" Sabo reminded and put a hand on said boy's shoulder "So, where we goin'" he asked and turned his eyes to Luffy's small form on the boulder.
"Back up into the forest again and go to the right to the mountain, I'll hand you the ladder once your there"
"Right!" the blond said and pulled the black haired preteen with him.
They glanced at her suspiciously once they were on the mountain, Ace's eyes poring in to the side of her head.
"is it true?" he asked, his dark eyes narrowing "Is the old man your grandfather?" she simply nodded, not taking her eyes off the entrance of the clearing.
"Yeah, that's what he tells me at least"
"So you don't know for sure?" Sabo asked, his voice sounding confused.
"No, never seen my parents so can't be sure"
Silence fell over the small group, while the sound of tree's and boulder's breaking came closer and closer.
She could hear him shouting her name once in a while. Standing up she pulled down the ladder and climbed down to the smaller rock to wait for Garp to show himself, it shouldn't take much longer.
She could clearly hear Ace's and Sabo's gasps of surprise as she did so.
"Hey, he'll catch you" Sabo warned.
"Nah"
"Your life" Ace muttered, his voice cold and emotionless as ever.
"Yup!"
Just a few seconds after the last word was uttered and large crashing sound was heard as Garp made his way into the clearing, panting as if he'd run a marathon, which you might say he had.
"Yo!" she shouted and flashed her flashed her trademark grin.
Garp looked up, his eyes narrowing, a smile soon appearing on his lips.
He huffed and stood up straight "You've gotten better" her grin grew at his statement.
"I kinda had to, living alone is hard" Garp's smile disappeared at her statement and a frown soon graced his tanned face.
"That's why I left you at Makino's, my little princess shouldn't have to fend for herself" Luffy simply shrugged her shoulders and stuck a finger up her nose in disinterest.
"Princess, since when have I been treated like a princess, the time you threw me on a island only inhabited by carnivorous animals?"
Garp spurted nonsense at her accusations.
"Or the time when you sent me flying by just a few balloons?" she shuddered at the memory "Yeah, that's really how you treat a princess, crazy old coot" she heard Ace's and Sabo's laughter from down where she was sitting and Garp had seemingly also heard the two.
"Ace?" he said I an confused voice "You've met Luffia?"
Ace didn't answer and simply glared down at the old man staring at him in confusion.
"So, Luffy" he took a step closer to where said girl was sitting "are you going to come back to the village with me on your own or am I going to have to use force?"
"Shi shi shi, no way am I going back, the forest is too much fun"
"The second option then" he took another few steps before his eyes suddenly widen, as did Luffy's smile as she saw her grandfather set off her trap.
Cliffhanger!
To Be Continued!
A/N: ok, I don't know how good this chapter is, I wrote it on my phone around 4am, sleep deprived and in a giggly mood. Don't know why, I think I scared my sis for life by suddenly starting giggling in the middle of the night, I don't even remember what I was giggling about.
Did I make Luffy to OCC, is she to smart and serious, might rewrite this chappie sometime.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed and plzz review!
