*-_-*-_-*oOo*-_-*-_-*

They had agreed to take Luffy to the small town bar in Fusha to ask Makino for help, a sort of friend of Dan Dan's.

But geting the baby to Parties bar was harder than they had first antisipated, it were like some higher power were playing a trick on them, ether that or they just had extreamly bad luck.

The moment the had reentered the forest had been hell, Ace who were taking the lead, iron pipe in his hands got the first stroke of bad luck when a bee hive had suddenly fallen from a tree and landed on his head, sucessfully covering the dark haired boy's hair with sticky sweet honey and raging sworms of angry bees of course.

The second thing could have been easily explained as a follow up from the previous accident had happened when they had just entered their usual hunting ground, the fasted way to the small village.

A roar had echoed throug the dense clearing to the side of the crocodile infested lake, soon followed by large cracking of trees and bushes. Sabo had swallowed the large lump forming in his throat and gripped the snoozing baby in a tighter hold, sure of what would come next.

Sure enough, the large bear he and Ace had fought several times before exited from the dense jungle from right across the lake, his large head stuck into the air, taking several heavy sniffs before his beedy eyes settled on the both boy's, Ace in particular.

"A-Ace... wh-what are we gonna do, we can't fight that thing with Luffy around, he could get hurt"

"Don't you think i know that?" Ace hissed, clearly pissed at the situation they were in.

Sabo stared at the steadily aproaching bear earily before his eyes landed on the lake where you could see a few crocodiles sunbaithing in the last rays of the sunlight.

"Hey, Ace" he whispered to the freckled boy "he seems to be attracted to the honey you got over you earlier" he motioned to Ace's shirs covered in the sweet substance "you think you can luer him to the lake?" Ace looked kins of confused for a while before a wide smirk appeared on his face.

"Of course, that's easy. Just watch" Ace sprinted to the far side of the lake where most of the reptiles were resting and proceeded to take his sticky shirt of and wave it in the air, to catch the bears attention, sure enough, the huge animal took a few gulps of air before charging at the boy.

Ace waited for when the bear were a few meters away before he tossed the honey covered shirt in the lake, the bear soon following que.

They could clearly hear the raged snapps from the now awake crocodiles and the raged roars from the angered bear.

"He's sure gonna be pissed the next time we see him" Sabo muttered, the still sleeping Luffy craddled in his arms.

"If we see him again" Ace agreed.

By the time they had reaced a small road leeding to the small village the sun had already set and a few stars stared sppearing on the darkened sky, making them stumble over tree rotts covering their path.

They suddenly froze. The next, and most frightening obsticle in their way were stood just a few yards infront of them, panting and sweating heavily.

"Damn geezer" Ace murmoured as he stared at his grandfather.

"What do we do now" Sabo asked, staring at the old man blocking their way.

"Wait" Ace said in a monatone voice "he'll charge in to the forest soon enough, ether that or he'll fall asleep"

True to his words, Garp soon toppled over, beinging a tree down with him, heavy snors and a sleep bubble protruding from his nose.

"See?" Ace whispered and motioned for Sabo to follow him.

They sucessfully tip toed past Garp and made their way to Makino's bar. They had just sneeked through the back door when the small bundle in Sabo's arms started to whine, making the two boy's look at eachother, panicked expression on both their faces.

"Ace? Sabo?" A female voice called from the dooe to the bar "what are you two doing here?"

Sabo held up the baby in response, making the woman gasp and then squeel.

The both boy's looked at the woman funnily as she grabbed the babe from Sabo's arms and cooed at the little boy, making said baby erupt in a fit of giggles.

"Well" Ace began.

"Glad she likes baby's" Sabo finished and the both sighed in relif.
