Dawn Island Mt. Cova
"Ace!" Dadan shouted. "What do you want Dadan?" Ace asked. "Before you go I want give this to you." Dadan took the necklace she has around her neck and hand it over to Ace. "Your necklace?" Ace questioned. "I thought you said it was important to you." Ace said as she grunted. "It is but you should take it for good luck." Dadan said as she try to hold back her tears. Dogra and Magra give Ace a locket.
"Open it." Dogra said. Ace opened the locket and inside was a picture of him, Luffy and Sabo sleeping when they were kids. "We know how much you miss them so we decided to find the picture of three you sleeping since all of you refuse to to take any picture's when your awake." Magra said. "Thanks everyone." Ace said with a smile. "Shut up and leave already you ungrateful brat." Dadan said trying to punch Ace who then dodge the punch. "I'll miss you to Dadan." Ace said running into the jungle. "Just leave already!" Dadan said as the three of them started to cry.
Foosha Village
Ace was running to the direction of Makino bar. "I got to hurry and say goodbye to Makino and thank her for teaching me how to be polite." Ace thought running as fast as he can until "ZZZ" he fell asleep in the middle of the street. "Is he dead?" a bystander asked another bystander. "What should we do?" Someone asked as neither of the people know what to do.
A young dark haired women saw this and giggles."I see you still have the habit of falling asleep." said the women herself waking up Ace. Ace starts to move as he open his eyes and saw the one who woke him. "Oi, Makino whats up." The women name is Makino Luffy, Ace and Sabo friend. "Why is everyone looking at me." Ace asked. "Because we thought you were dead!" Everyone except Makino yelled. "I was just sleeping." Ace said as they yelled "Just sleeping!" Makino giggled at Ace actions. "Whatever." Ace said walking away with Makino following him. As they walk Makino asks Ace if he was okay.
"Yeah I am why wouldn't I be?" Ace said as she shook her head. "It's because your leaving today and you don't know where your heading." Makino said giving him a sad smile. "I do know where i'm going and besides it's what Luffy and Sabo would want." Ace said looking at the sky. Makino saw Ace tears forming. "It's okay if you want to cry Ace." Makino said giggling.
"I am not going to cry." Ace shouted. The two arrived at her bar and they both enter, but when they enter they saw someone they haven't seen in years. "It can't be him can it." Makino started to form tears in her eyes. "Lufffy is that you?" Ace asked. That someone turn around and said "Yeah it's me, the one and only Monkey. D Luffy." Luffy started to laugh. "Don't laugh you idiot." Ace then started to beat Luffy into a pulp.
1 hour later
After Ace was done beating Luffy Makino went to treat his injuries while Ace was drinking some of the sake Makino pour for him. "So tell me Luffy were have you been the past four years?" Ace asked drinking his sake. "Training." Was Luffy only answer. "Training where, me, the Dadan family, Makino and Woop slap have been looking for you the past 4 freaking years!" Ace shouted as Lufffy just shrugged.
"Don't just shrugged your shoulders at me!" Ace yelled again. Makino then jumped on Ace trying to calm him down. "Ace maybe you should stop yelling." Makino said. Luffy looked at the two confused, but then he started to laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" Ace yelled again. "Because I didn't know you two were lovers already." Luffy said as the two blushed. "Shut up you idiot this have nothing to do with my love life or Makino!" Ace shouted. "But you told me that you like Makino since the first time you met her and the way she's trying to calm you down kind looks like it." Luffy said as both Ace and Makino face were red like a tomato. He was right. The position their in will give many people the wrong idea. "Shut up already!" Ace shouted as Makino got off him looking away. Ace then starting to beat Luffy into a pulp again.
Another hour later
Luffy was on the floor unconscious as both Ace and Makino were silent and not looking at each other. "So what Luffy said was true?" Makino asked turning around breaking the silence. "Yeah. Wait no I mean..." Ace started to panic. "Ace." Makino said as Ace started to sweat bullets.
"You want the truth?" He asked. Makino nodded. Ace sighed. "The truth is that I had a crush on you since I was 10." Ace said. "And I still have a crush on you." Ace said sporting another blush. Makino was blushing to, so she did the only thing she could do. She got up and walked to the storage room. "Aw man now she thinks that I'm weird." Ace said.
"It's all Luffy fault." He said looking at his little brother unconscious body and smiled. "I'm glad you didn't changed and I'm glad that your back." Ace said. Ace then heard Luffy groan. "It's about time." Ace thought with a devious grin and cracking his knuckles. He got close to Luffy until- "Holy crap I forgot about Traf-shroom and Rebecca!" Luffy yelled scaring his brother. "Damn Luffy don't yell!" Ace said covering his ears.
"Who cares I have to go find Traf-shroom and Rebecca." Luffy yelled as he was about to ran out of the door until Ace grabbed him. "Who?" Ace asked. "Their my friends that came with me I sorted left them behind when we docked." Luffy said. "I got to go find before Traf-shroom does something stupid." Luffy said. Ace was about to say something until they hear people screaming. "You guys heard that." Makino said coming out of the storage room. "Yeah." Ace said. "Luffy stay here and he's gone." Ace said seeing Luffy ran out the door. "Makino you stay here too and now she's gone." Ace said seeing Makino ran out of the bar. "Looks it's my time to shine." Ace said running out of the bar.
Outside Makino bar
"What the?" Ace saw a guy with a mushroom shape hat holding what looks like someone head. "Why i'm alive shouldn't I be dead." The head said. "Why is he holding a decapitated head that talks." Ace thought. "Hey you um... let go of the head?" Ace said as the guy look at him with a stern look. "No." Was his only answer as he continue bouncing the head up and down. "Traf-shroom let the head go." Ace saw Luffy in front of the guy. "Why should I?" The guy asked. "Because I'll kick your ass." Luffy said pumping his fist in the air. "Your no fun Straw hatter." The man said putting the head back on the guy body which was running around circles. "Thank god." The man said running away. "Law that wasn't nice."A pink-haired girl said to Law who grunted. "So." He said as he sat down on a nearby crate with his nodachi resting next to him. "Luffy do you know this man?" Makino asked. "Yeah he's one of my friends Traf-shroom." Luffy said. "Traf-shroom.?" Both Ace and Makino said with a confused look. "No my name is Trafalgar. D Law." Law said. "And my name is Rebecca." Rebecca said waving her hand smiling.
Inside Makino bar
"So you two are Luffy friends." Makino said with a smile pouring juice to Rebecca and sake to Law. Rebecca nodded and Law grunted. "Their cool but Traf-shroom get's mad when I call him Traf-shroom, Mushroom law, Tra-guy and Mushroom judge." Luffy said as Law grew a tick mark. "I'm glad that Luffy is making friends." Makino smile.
"Hey Makino can have another bottle of sake." Ace said as Makino gave him the bottle without saying anything or even look at him. "I guess she still feels weird about my confession." Ace thought looking at Makino. "Yeah Makino their the best shishishishishi." Luffy said. "Hey Luffy." Luffy looked at Ace. "You know that toady is the day I'm setting out to sea right." Ace said. "It is?" Luffy tilted his head. "Yeah I'm leaving in 5 minutes." Ace said drinking his sake. "Remember the promise we made Luffy." Ace said grinning.
Flash back
"Remember guys when we turn seventeen we will all become pirates." Young Ace said as both Sabo and Luffy smile. "All of us won't most likely not be on the same pirate crew but we are all brother's, so if we ever see each other out sea we won't attack each other promise." Ace said. "Promised." Sabo and Luffy shouted. All three of the them started to laughed.
Flash back ended
"You did remember the promise right Luffy." Ace said while Luffy nodded. "Somehow I believe you." Ace said with a sweat drop. "Anyway it's good seeing you Luffy but I got to get going. I do need to find a crew since I am a pirate now." Ace said with a smile. "If you want you and your friends could see me off." And with that he walked out with Luffy, Law and Rebecca in pursuit. The only who didn't was Makino who started to cry.
Mt. Cova
"So where are you heading to?" Luffy asked Ace who was on a boat. "Who knows I just let the boat take me any where." Ace said as the boat started drift. "So you going get lost." Luffy plainly said. "Shut up!" Ace shouted. Luffy just laughed "Bye Ace I hope we meet again someday." Luffy said waving Ace goodbye. "Bye Ace!" The Dadan family who appear out of nowhere yelled. Luffy turns around and smiled at the Dadan family. "Yo." Was all that Luffy said shocking the Dadan family. "Luffy!" They shouted. Ace laughed at the reactions of the Dadan family. "Ace!" Ace stopped laughing and saw Makino waving goodbye. "When you come back to visit we will go on a date!" Makino shouted shocking every one except Law and Rebecca who don't know whats going on . "What!" They yelled. Ace started to blush. " A date with Makino." Ace thought. Makino then wink at him and Ace well he fainted. "Ah he fainted!" Makino yelled as Luffy laughed.
The next day
"So your leaving already Luffy?" Makino said with a sad smile. "Yeah but I'll be back after I'm done with my training. after all the king of the pirates started were he was born. Also don't tell grandpa that I was here." Luffy said as he enter Law submarine. "My lips are seal have a safe trip." Makino said waving Luffy goodbye. "He's just like big sister always smiling till the end." Makino thought seeing the sub going underwater.
In Law submarine
"So Law you not coming back to Dressrosa?" Rebecca asked Law. "No I can't come back yet." Law stated. "Why not?" Luffy asked. "Because something happen between me and Doflamingo." Law said with a sad smile. "What happen between you and Mingo?" Luffy asked as Rebecca hit him. "Ow why you hit me Rebecca?" Luffy yelled. "Look at Law." Rebecca pointed at Law who had a grooming look. "It's best not ask anymore questions Luffy." Rebecca said dragging Luffy into another room leaving Law alone. "Coranzon it was all my fault you died." Law said as tears started to form. "Doflamingo I will avenge Coranzon." Law said before falling asleep not before he could hear Doflamingo sinister laughing in his mind.
