trisha23flow: thank you for the review and it will still take some time for Ace to believe them, sorry
asarat: his aunt came back and when she saw Teach beaten up she fainted, I am sorry for not making the chapter clear enough and thank you for reviewing
MeikoKuran999: oh don't worry they will get their beatings and thanks for the review
A/N: I am sorry for the horrible short chapter but I wanted to ask you if you wanted them to take Ace with them or to find him someone good to stay with here? Please don't forget to review and tell me what you want I am really torn between the two choices
And to pass the time if you want you can read my other story it is called 'secound chance'
siting on the couch for the first time made Ace feel like a prince but he shifted his mind from his childish thoughts to what was going on, after his aunt came back from work she fainted when she saw her husband beaten up and now both she and her husband were bounded on chairs in the middle of the living room where the strange people (Pirates) stood waiting for them to wake up for some reason, Ace was told by the rubber man to sit with his cousin Stelly on the couch
Turning to face his cousin Ace noted the boy was going to piss in his pants and felt pity for him even after all the horrible things he did to him
"Marco" he called to get the others attention since he didn't know their names, he only knew Marco who wasn't Marco which didn't make sense to Ace but after seeing the rubber man he began to believe them a little bit
"Yeah Ace, what is it yoi" said the blond as he didn't dare to go near his younger brother as to not alert him
"Can Stelly go back to his room" said Ace pointing at his scared cousin
"sure why not" said Sabo who went to pick the kid up "I will take him to his room, you don't have to worry about anything Ace" said the blond as he happily took the child upstairs and Ace felt himself swept drop, somehow he got the feeling that the man didn't like his cousin much
"Ace" this time it was the red haired as he drew closer to him and sat in front of him
"It is going to be okay, we promise you that we won't let anyone hurt you anymore" said the man and Ace wanted to believe the man desperately but still was afraid
"Ace!" drawing his attention this time was the rubber boy who gave a big grin and said "I am Luffy! You can call me from now on oni-chan ok!" and at those words Ace felt the walls surrounding his heart break and he cried for the first time in years
