Doflamingo sat back in his char and watched as Sugar and Avara interacted with each other a few yards away from him. For the past two hours Sugar had been trying to use her devil fruits ability on the girl and for the past two hours she had been failing.
"I can't touch her" Sugar said walking back over to Doflamingo. It was obvious to him that the small blue haired girl was upset, this was the first time he'd ever seen her abilities fail.
"Fufufu. What do you mean?" Doflamingo questioned
"I can't touch her" Sugar stated, "I go right through her"
Doflamingo grinned and looked back over to the black haired girl, who was looking over in their direction, a bored look in her eyes as if she knew he was up to something and she wasn't impressed by it.
"Doflamingo" Avara said loudly, "That won't work on me"
Avara smiled as Doflamingo's grin grew a little smaller. He wasn't used to losing, if he could even call whatever this was losing. He didn't even know what he was losing at. Figuring out a child? Getting her to join his crew? Learning her devil fruit abilities? These were all things he could easily force her to do, it would be as simple as snapping a twig. Both of them knew that.
"Why are you still here?" Avara asked drawing the man out of his thoughts
"I'm waiting for my newest crew member" He said with a chuckle
Avara threw her head back and shut her eyes. This man really was quite stubborn.
"What a coincidence" She said, "I'm waiting for somebody too"
Both Avara and Doflamingo stared at each other in silence. She was waiting for him to return to his ship so she could return home, and he was waiting for her to return home, so he could fallow her.
"Stalking me isn't going to make me want to join your crew" Avara said.
Doflamingo chuckled, it was obvious by the tone in her voice that she was worn out, from what he could piece together, she had been using her devil fruits ability all day in order to cancel out Sugars.
"You wouldn't want to fall asleep here. You might wind up waking up in the middle of the ocean tomorrow" He warned earning a chuckle from the girl
"That'd be stupid of you. To allow an unwilling devil fruit user on your ship" She said
Doflamingo just smiled causing Avara to frown in return. He was always smiling. Even when she had managed to make him frown it would only stay on his face for a few seconds before his maniacal smile returned.
Standing up to stretch Avara yawned, "I'm leaving"
Doflamingo grinned and stood up, knowing that if he found out where the girl lived he'd be able to learn something interesting about her.
"Phase" The girl commented as she fell through the ground
"Phase?" Doflamingo mused to himself
