Chapter 3- Marine Condemnation

I held Ace in my arms as I listened to the men in front of us bicker. Shiro was kneeling beside me studying his surroundings and I could hear his muttering inside my head confirming what route would be the best to get out if things got worse.

Garp or my grandfather had no choice in the decision to bring us to this place.

"HIS FATHER IS THE GOLD ROGER HE HAS TO BE KILLED!" one man yelled at Garp. I held my baby brother closer than before not wanting them to touch him at all.

"THEN WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?! A CHILD SHOULD BE KILLED JUST BECAUSE OF HIS BLOOD?!" Garp roared back fighting desperately for us.

"I agree with Garp" Admiral Kuzan said breaking out of his nap. "Piracy is not found in the blood of a child." He said. I immediately liked the guy who fought for the live of my brother.

"WE CAN'T TAKE THAT CHANCE! WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER ROGER IS THIS WORLD" another man yelled.

It looked very well bad for my brother, so I chose to do something that still haunts me to this day.

"YOU KILL THE BOY AND THE TWO OLDER SIBILINGS WILL GO AFTER US." Another yelled. I looked towards Shiro and he immediately caught my eye.

"Kari! Momma told you not to do anything stupid!" he thought to me. I shook my head and placed the sleeping baby into his arms.

"She also told me to protect. No Shi?" I asked him. He looked at me sadly.

"Please don't! I can't have you go too!' he said tears spilled down his face in sadness; desperately trying to persuade me not to do what I was about to.

"Shi don't worry about me. And don't get angry. This is my choice. And I will protect you guys."

"THEN WHAT IF WE DISABLE HIM FROM MOVING, CUT OFF A FEW LIMBS AND RESTRICT HIS SENSES!" another man spoke. "This way he will still be alive but he could never set foot as a pirate!"

Garp, Kuzan, and some of the others looked horrified at this, while some seamed approving.

"NO, THE OLDER CHILDREN WILL STILL GO AFTER US IF THEY SEE THIS."

"Kari don't! I can't be separated from you. No!" Shiro's voice yelled in my head.

"Oww" I muttered a headache now coming on. "Shi you're forgetting that we are together here!' I tapped my head before slowly rising from my spot. 'We will never be separated.'

I took a deep breath before speaking to everyone.

"STOP FIGHTING!" I cried making everyone look at me. Everyone was so surprised that they became silent and wide-eyed.

"Why are you trying to punish Ace. He did nothing wrong. He didn't cause anyone's Bobo, anyone's hurt. He's a baby." I said feeling a bit more confident I spoke my mind.

"Why hurt him when I am the one who is the worst problem for you." I frowned at my sentence not liking how it ended up. Ignoring it I moved on. "I am the one who watched Daddy every time he came by. Ace doesn't know his daddy. I know him and I loved him even if he was not my Papa."

Some of the men looked at me in horror, finally getting what I was trying to say.

"I'm the one who is the big problem. I was the one who was able to travel with Daddy over the Grandline for a year. I'm the one who stopped Him and Onii-chan from fighting and Rei-chan and Phoenix from fighting too! I'm the one who is the most danger to you." My voice quieted a bit as a few tears ran down my face. "Momma always told me I was like Papa, like I was Papa's baby. Because I act just like him."

I looked up at the man in the black suit at the far end of the hall.

"If anyone should be punished it's me, because I'm the most danger to you, I'm the one who knows all Daddy's tricks" I finished. The men were speechless as they saw me speak up.

"What?! You went on Roger's ship?" one of the men asked. I nodded my head before speaking.

"Yes, daddy wouldn't let me go with him so I crawled through a hole in the ship where PAPOW comes from" I said thinking of the canons.

"YOU LIE GIRL!" one of the men who I came to realize were in charge say.

"No, she isn't." Garp said in defense. "Rouge had told me on her deathbed that Kari did in fact go onto Roger's ship and they only found out when Whitebeard kicked the barrel she was hiding in at Roger.

He let out a breath before studying my face. He recognized something then spoke words that sealed my fate.

"If you do insist on punishing one of the children, Kari would be your best choice." He grounded out. "Out of all the kids, she is the one that spent the most time with Roger, she has control over them; being the oldest. She can make sure they do not take revenge. And if you do hurt her, Ace will look at her in guilt each time he sees her; knowing full well that it was all his fault that she was hurt." I wiped tears from my eyes before looking forward at the men that where in charge of the Marines.

"If you touch my brothers I will never forgive you." I said putting as much force as I can into my gaze. All most instantly one of the soldiers by the door fell onto his face, knocked out.

I looked at him confused before the man in the black suit looked over me again in thought.

"Your men are weird." I mentioned, but I was ignored.

"Very well then, you will lose your sight and dominate arm. This way you will never be able to truly fight us if anything were to happen." He said condemning my sight and arm to death. "Take her to Imperial Dam" he told the Vice-admiral named Sengoku.

I took a breath before facing the man who was to take me to hell. My grandfather stepped forward and pulled me into a hug.

"Be brave my child." He told me before he let me go. "I'll take care of your brothers" I nodding tears of fright rolled down my cheeks as I shook.

"Let's go brat." The man Sengoku said grabbing my hand and led me to the door.

"KARIII! DON'T GO!" Shiro yelled trying to reach me. I could see he was on the bridge of losing his cool again so I ripped my arm out of Sengoku's hand and faced my brother.

"Shiro, promise me something." I asked him, he stopped fighting his anger slowly disappearing. "Don't get mad till I get back!"

His small head nodded before whimpering and clutching our brother close.

"Protect Ace and I will come back no?" I turned back towards the door, my back straight.

And despite my knees shaking and the feeling like I was going to be sick I didn't look back as I walked out the door with no one holding me.

'I love you Shi' I thought as I was led to the port, and eventually onto a ship.
