Alright here we go so I pretty sure I confused the crap out of some of ya'll from the first chapter….
I apologize for that but I'm here to answer some of your thoughts…
The chapter won't be that long for a while for two reasons: One, softball has started and though we suck, we play a lot of games. And two, I'm practicing cliff hangers. Also I'm just saying it now I'm a LuNa fan :) and a ZoRo fan as well hehe!
Chapter 2: March 19th
Kage Island was located near the entrance of the Red Line but far from Marine Headquarters, it was a tropical Island, with at first glance was uninhabited, but soon you would find one of the secret head quarters of the Revolutionary Army.
The room was buzzing in excitement as the soldiers looked at the four arriving pirate crews; they were in shock that not only did four of the six showed up but that any showed up at all. The Heart, Hawkins, Mad Monk, and Drake Pirates were lounging at the tables they had been assigned too. In the right corner sat the Hawkins, Mad Monk, and Drake Pirates; in the far left corner sat only the Heart Pirates, the crew was obviously excited and was begging their captain to let them go and dance with the pretty girls that had been throwing seductive smiles to them.
"Please captain." An orange haired man with a green and red hat complained as his companion, who was wearing a hat that read 'Penguin', held is hands clamped together, moving them forward and back, begging silently.
"No, wait till after the meeting." Law smiled at his subordinates, they held their heads down in defeat. He was leaned back in his chair, his feet propped up on the table, his sword was resting on his first mate's shoulder, and he was clearly enjoying himself. He examined the room: at the front of the room was long tables were the leader must sit, and at the other end of the room was a table long of assorted fruits, vegetables, and meats. Law looked to the area he was currently sitting; it was obvious that they expected more pirates. Right on cue, you could hear a young man screaming, Law instantly recognized the voice and began chuckling as his crew tensed and the other guest looked curiously at the entrance.
"This should be good." Law asked grinning humorously as the door burst opened, causing them to come off the hinges.
"MEAT!" A man wearing a straw hat yelled as drool poured from his mouth and ran to the buffet, intending to stack his plate with every kind of meat possible, but was stop by an orange haired woman.
"Luffy! I told you to wait!" An orange haired girl yelled and punched her captain on the head. He clamped his head in his hands and began rolling on the floor.
"Ow! Nami that hurts!" He complained in a whining voice from the floor; Law stared somewhat amazed at the audacity of the woman until a blonde haired and green haired man walked up behind Nami, they were grinning with amusement at their buffoon of a captain, until she turned to them.
"And why the hell didn't you stop him?" She turned to the men, the blonde's eyes turned into hearts and the green haired man looked mad.
"Nami-san you are so beautiful when you're angry! Do forgive me but moss head got lost." Instantly his eyes turned to flames as he glared at Zoro.
"What did you call me curly brow!" He drew his swords and the two began instantly fighting. Luffy was on the ground with Nami's foot in his back, her eye brow began to twitch and her fist clenched.
"Ahh! Zoro, Sanji stop fighting already! Nami is mad!" A long nose man yelled as he hid behind a large man with a blue nose.
"Umm… Nami calm down it's bad for your blood pressure, and it's scary." The blue nosed man yelped holding his hands up in defense. She pulled out a staff and began twirling it around, as a dark cloud went over the two morons fighting.
"Thunder bolt Tempo!" She yelled and lighting stuck the crew; except her, another woman, and Luffy. Law began chuckling as the crew began yelling at her.
"I see your crew hasn't changed at all, Mr. Straw Hat." Law spoke up when the crew quieted down. Luffy looked up confused and began grinning when he spotted Law.
"HEHE nope! Hey it's the bear!" Luffy jumped up, causing his navigator to fall to the floor, and he walked over to Law, pointing excitedly at Bepo, who was looking away and turning red. Luffy held his hand out and grinning like a fool at the laid back man. "You left before I could say thank you, so thank you." Law smiled and shook his hand. The Straw Hat Pirates went and sat down beside the Heart Pirates, and after introducing everyone they began their usual foolish behavior and rude manners.
"Excuse me." The skeleton, Brooke, sat beside the orange haired man with a red and green hat, Cliff, and the man wearing a 'Penguin' hat, James; he belched and farted and then began laughing.
"So, why is your polar bear wearing a jumpsuit?" Usopp asked staring curiously at the bear. The bear hung his head in shame.
"Sorry." He muttered.
"Ah, Bepo quit being such a wimp." The man with a 'Penguin' hat yelled.
"Ahh! He talks!" Usopp yelled and fell out his chair, causing both crews to laugh. The bear began muttering apologizes again until Chopper interrupted him.
"Don't worry about that, he's just afraid." The blue nose man said while grinning foolishly. The bear looked up at what he thought to be another human, confused and curious.
"Chopper, why are you in that form anyway, your cuter with the other one?" Nami said as she shipped her wine glass. Chopper suddenly shrunk to an adorable half deer, half human form, his eyes were wide and he stood on two feet. He began happily dancing with embarrassment.
"You think I like you stupid complements, you stupid human." His insults were meaningless with him dancing and blushing. The Straw Hats began laughing at the bewildered expressions of the Heart Pirates, excepted for Law of course.
"Ah Nami-san, Robin-san you're so cute when you laugh!" Sanji yelled as he began kissing Nami's and Robin's hand; Zoro began staring darkly at the man as he kissed Robin's hand, he lifted his right arm and wrapped it around the woman's waist.
About this time a certain crew had finally made it to the meeting. Stomping through the broken doors was when a certain red-head captain came busted through the door, followed by a masked man, a zombie wearing a corset, two men with an orange and yellow-haired Mohawk, a man in samurai outfit, and small girl with long blonde hair that followed closely beside the crew. She looked worried and uncomfortable but still had a smug grin on her face; she walked closely behind her red-haired captain and blue-masked superior. Soon a man walked up to the Kidd Pirates and pointed them to their seats; a grimaced crossed his usually angry face as he noticed the two pirate crews seating there.
"Hello Mr. Eustass." Law said in a small smirk, Kidd snarled and the girl began to giggle behind him, causing Killer to elbow her in the ribs. She rubbed her sore ribs and muttered 'ow' to the masked man, who just shook his head.
"Trafalgar… Straw Hat." Kidd nodded to each of them, as he took his seat far from the two annoying captains. The girl sat in between the orange and yellow haired men who grinned down at her and instantly started picking with her, she smiled sweetly and punched them both on the head. Zoro stared at the girl for a moment, he had never seen her, the others he had at the auction house, but not her. Just as he was about to ask his bone headed captain jumped up.
"Who are you?" Luffy asked excitedly as he leaped across the table and was inches from her face and grabbed her arm, she yelped and jumped back, and fell back in her chair. The orange and yellow haired men stared angrily at the idiotic captain before helping the girl up. She stood up, but stayed at a far distance from the table and stared at the man with a frown tugging at her lip-stain lips. Suddenly the big goof in front of her went flying into the wall by a kick that his black suit wearing subordinate delivered. "Ow! Sanji, what was that for?" He yelped as he cradled his head in his hands.
"Luffy you don't surprise a woman like that, especially one as beautiful as she!" Sanji yelled his eyes turned to hearts as he made kissy face at the girl.
"I just wanted to know her name." Luffy muttered pouting a bit.
"Nicky… Now get the fuck back to your seat!" She yelled. She was trembling, her eyes were wide as she tried to glare angrily at the man; Kidd and Killer looked over her nervously and protectively, and then glared at the man still making kissy faces and the pouting boy on the floor.
"Nicky go to the bathroom and calm down." Kidd ordered in a calm voice, surprising almost everyone, except his crew and Law. She turned and walked out the door, Luffy stared confused at the retreating back of the girl, a dark haired woman spoke up.
"Please don't touch her." Killer spoke this time, he had his arms crossed his chest. He left it at that, Luffy went to protest but Nami grabbed the back of his shirt and shook her head. He pouted and sat back down in his seat in defeat.
"Why wasn't she at the Auction House?" Nami asked tilting her head to the side.
"She doesn't like places with large number of people, she was on the ship." Killer answered her question.
"She wouldn't happen to be Nicky 'The Informer'?" Robin asked this time, she smiled sweetly up at the men, but the smile didn't quite reach her eyes.
"Yes." Kidd replied angrily as he spoke this time, he didn't really like how observant she was.
"Interesting…" Robin whispered slightly impressed.
"Nicky 'the Informer'?" Usopp asked looking slightly confused. Law listened carefully now, he had heard rumors. Eustass 'Captain' Kidd was perhaps the most informed rookie of the New World and grand line. Robin nodded and looked at the door where the person in question just left through.
Bathroom….
Nicky looked into the mirror at her reflection, her pale blue eyes were lit up in angry, fear, and surprise. Most people, even those who didn't know her, never got that close. It had surprised her, she was for once glad that she wore all of these hot clothes.
'Of all the stupid devil fruits in the world, I had to eat the one that allows me to read every thought, memory, and emotion that's went through the person head since birth…. Oh it just gets better considering the fact that I just have to touch them. No offense to Straw Hat but I really don't want to see his after looking at that scar on his chest.' She thought to herself. She turned on the sink, pulling her hair around the side; she wetted a paper towel and placed it on the back of her neck. After a couple minutes she could feel her pulse slow downed, sighing, she threw away the towel and left the bathroom.
Meeting….
"Now ladies and gentlemen it's time to begin. Unfortunately Monkey D. Dragon could not come but will be at the next. I am Emporio Ivankov " A man with far too make up on, a Jolly Roger tattooed on his chest, and well to be honest he looked like a drag queen. An ugly, fat-headed, purple afro drag queen. The blonde haired man, Sanji, Law recalled, grabbed his heart and collapsed.
When Nicky returned, the banquet had started; Law stared curiously, slightly fascinated with the small blonde girl near him. Law could hear the man with an abnormally large head, Ivankov, speaking but he didn't register anything he was saying he was too busy observing the girl. She had long wild blonde hair, a small heart shaped face, olive toned skin, with high rosy cheek bones, her wide intelligent blue eyes wondered around the room as she took in all her surroundings, she wore brown eye shadows with black eye liner and mascara, causing her eyes to pop out better, and her thick full lips were stained with a maroon lip stain. Law snickered and looked back to the speaker, 'Probably barrowed it from her captain.' He looked back and met her pale blue eyes staring distasteful at him he smirked and waved, she rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to the speaker. He noticed her choice of clothing now; she had a long-sleeve, turtle-neck black shirt, leather black gloves that fit tightly to her hands, dark denim blue jeans that flared at her knees, a lime green sash tied tightly around her hips, and black flats. She was lazily slump in her chair with one leg crossed over the other, and her arms were crossed under her chest and rested on her stomach.
"Now, let's get down to business." Ivankov spoke up. "The reason why we asked all of you to come…" He motioned to the six pirate crews, and continued, "Is because we would like your help. We need help in deliver two packages to other quarter across the New World… unfortunately the Marines are leery of us so we can't deliver them without violence." He paused and grinned. "That's where the six of you come into play. Image three infamous pirate captains teamed together, nothing could stop you."
Kidd looked up the man in distaste and distrust; Law glared at the man in defiance, he did not like idea of taking orders. Luffy grinned stupidly, his crew sighed they knew that once he made up his mind there was no turning back. Right as Kidd and Law were going to reject, Nicky spoke up.
"Kidd… I think we should do it." She said boldly, Kidd glared at the girl demanding a reason. "Think about it Kidd. We get to kick some Marine ass, the most wanted man in the world is asking for help, and our bounties will increase." She looked up to her hot-headed captain grinning.
"I'm not taking orders from anyone. I'm captain!" Kidd yelled, the room began to stir as they turned their attention to the argument happening.
"Don't think of it as an order…" She tilted her head back and stared up at the ceiling resting her index finger on her chin. "More like a suggestion, that you have the option to disobey." She smiled. "What's wrong Kidd, scared that the Marines will out best you?" Kidd snarled and Law glared as his smirk turned into an angry frown.
"We are in!" Kidd, Law, and Luffy yelled at the same time. Killer laughed at his sister's quick thinking, she knew exactly what to say to get her way without their hot-headed captain realizing it.
"Excellent! Now, Heart, Straw Hat, and Kidd Pirates; the three of you are Group one, you shall take the package to Tairyoku Cove. Later are officers will give you a log pose, information, and I suppose the choice will between the three of you on which ship you will take." Ivankov spoke. Luffy fell out of his chair, Kidd began grinding his teeth, and Law looked up at the man in distaste, after everyone left the room except the three pirate crews, Nicky spoke up.
"Wait, excuse me, sir?" Nicky said unsure of his gender. "You said we had to pick a ship? Does this mean… we are sailing as a whole?" She asked nervously, she didn't like new people. To most it meant a new friend, to her it meant more memories. She felt dizzy as she thought about how many people would be on the ship that she had never met before. Stress, horror, and fear clouded her mind, causing her to lose her control of her ability to control her emotions.
"Why yes…. Are you okay? You're looking a little green dear." Ivankov asked nervously. Law looked over to the girl, she indeed looked sick her tan face was pale and had turned a shade of green, she swayed of her feet, she was about to faint.
'Shit Nicky!' Killer jumped up and caught her as she fainted in his arms. Kidd smiled a little and looked up at the man/woman.
"She's not very social." He spoke in a small voice, everyone even Luffy knew there was more to it but decide not to push it. The crew nodded, as they nervously looked at the limped girl carefully Killer handed her to the Zombie. The Zombie carefully made sure not to touch any part of her skin, and let her head rest on his shoulder, her long hair in between their skin.
"Ed. Take her to the ship and pack her things…" Killer sighed as he watched Ed leave. He turned to Kidd and then to the other two captains, carefully he removed his mask. His wild blonde hair framed his tanned face, he had high cheek bones as well, and his eyes were the same pale blue as the girl that had just left the room. Killer grabbed the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes. He knew that their ship was out of the question, it was stained with blood and there wasn't enough space. "Kidd…" Killer looked over to his captain; Kidd was staring at the floor, lost in thought. He knew it as well; he sighed and looked up to Law and Luffy.
"Which ship is bigger?" He asked emotionless, 'Just you wait till I get my hands on you Nicky!'
"Hmm… I suppose Mr. Straw Hats is." Law knew this as well. His sub could hold the three crews but it would be extremely uncomfortable and the women would have no room to themselves.
"The Thousand Sunny is big enough for all of us, we'll have to pear up a little, but the women could have a room each to themselves." A blue haired man said. Both Law, and Kidd looked over him carefully, he was large, and well wasn't entirely human.
"Medical supplies?" Law smirked, his crew rolled their eyes. Of course he'd be worried about that, not the fact they were sailing with enemies.
"We have the essential things: herbs, books, tools, and other stuff." This time was a large man with a blue nose. Law nodded and assumed he was the doctor. The three crewmembers began naming things they had and didn't have. They knew they needed to buy more food and supplies in order to support Luffy's and the rest of the pirates eating habits. After getting everything set up they decided that the Straw Hats would get all the necessary medical supplies, Kidd Pirates would get food, and the Heart Pirates would get cleaning supplies and such.
The Thousand Sunny…
"Is there enough space?" Nami asked as she paced around the ship, she was extremely uncomfortable with the enemy coming aboard their ship. She frowned at the thought, a frown tugging at her lips, Luffy noticed this and walked causally over to her grinning like a buffoon, he twined his arms around her, pulling her close to him and planted a kiss on her forehead.
"Nami calm down…" Luffy grinned like a big goof before kissing her again.
"You're an idiot." Nami said almost sounding like a sigh and kissed him again.
The Sub…
Law packed his clothes, toiletries, his cleaning tools for his sword, a few books, and all his notes. Throwing the duffle bag on the bed he sat down and smiled, he couldn't wait to see how things would turn out this time. His smile widened, grabbing his bag he opened the door and walked out onto the deck.
Kidd….
Nicky woke up with a terrible headache. She pushed herself up on her elbows and met an icepack. She looked up and seen Gale. He smiled down at her, his orange Mohawk was standing straight up, she giggled and tried to flatten the Mohawk, a continuous game that she played. He laughed and grabbed her hand, placing the ice pack in her hand.
"Good morning sleeping beauty." He said. He chuckled when she gave him a distasteful stare. "You may need to finish packing. Killer wouldn't let us pack your clothes." He looked off dreamily as he thought about woman's lingerie; she slapped him upside the head and slowly got to her feet.
"So where are we...?" She didn't need to finish the sentence, Gale knew what she meant.
"Straw Hats, but good news is you get your own room." He smiled revealing his straight white teeth, hoping to cheer her up. She smiled back but he could see she was worried. He patted her on the head and left the room. As he strolled across the room, he smiled, everyone thought of her as a little sister on this ship. Well they didn't at first until they found out about her devil fruit powers and the fact Kidd and Killer would kill you before they let you lay a finger on her. But somehow she'd become like the little sister of this extremely overprotective family. He knocked on Killer's door and waited as the masked man opened the door.
"She's up… you may want to talk to her, she's not too happy." Gale told Killer and nodded in the direction of her room. He had just told her, and he could already hear her cussing and punching the walls, Killer nodded and laughed slightly.
"Nah, it's time for her to come out of that shell that she locked herself in." Killer shut the door in the shocked face of Gale, and laughed. She needed to learn how to socialize, he grinned as he heard her screaming curses at the top of her lungs. "Nicky! Hurry up and finish packing." Killer yelled, too much of his amusement she began yelling at him.
"Shut the hell up Killer!" She yelled at the top of her voice. He laughed and walked out onto to the deck, to the waiting Kidd. Kidd was still chuckling as he listened to Nicky yell.
"Are you ready?" Kidd asked in amusement. Killer nodded and threw his stuff over the deck, with the rest of the stuff. Nicky came out of her room with her bag on her back, throwing a glare at Kidd and Killer she jumped down to the ground and stared up at the crew grinning sinisterly up at them.
"Are you coming or what?" She yelled up at the two men, turning she continued to walk. They looked at each other for a moment before laughing and jumped down to join her.
