Chapter Six

Wait For It- By Lesli Odum Jr, the original cast of Hamilton

Law stood there and slowly let the words she spoke sink in. She was long gone at this point but his breathing became erratic, and irrational sense of panic settled into his brain taking over his senses. Using his ability he got back to his ship as fast as he could, leaving a wake of trees and debris as he went. As soon as he got there he tore through the submarine letting all the snails loose and throwing the clothes he was wearing into the furnace; for fear of being bugged. He ordered his crew to search every inch of the ship and get rid of anything else that the marines could use to track them with. Law decided the only thing to do to be safe for now was to go completely off the grid, to even at the least; give them breathing room.

Law sent a message to the Straw Hats using news coo, an old trick he had picked up from a crew member who was long dead. Hoping they would understand what was going on, after he was sure the bird was going in the right direction; he tore back through the wooded area outside of the town to get to Nami. He didn't know how she was going to react to what he was going to say. Guilt started to eat a hole into a chest, how could he have let this happen? If he had never called the straw hats then they never would have been tracked and Nami would still be safe. His son who was not born, would still be safe.

Law was breathing hard, having drained most his stamina to travel from the ship to the inn Zoro and Nami were at. He slammed open the door standing in the doorway for a moment. Zoro looked up from where he was at, obviously woken from a nap by Laws outburst.

"What's wrong?" Nami sat up rubbing her head. He quietly walked over to her shutting the door, catching his breath. After laying Nami back down he told them everything, about the vice admiral he had never seen before and the ultimatum he was dealt.

"So...what..what do you want to do?" Nami asked her voice watering, as she sat up putting a protective hand on her belly. Law looked at her, she looked more sick than when law dropped her off with Zoro. Sweat beaded on her forehead making her hair damp as it clung to parts of her face. Worry filled the hole the guilt left quickly as he took a deep breath looking down.

"Fight them. They arent going to get him, i'll stake my life on him. Whatever it takes to save you and him." Law stated without missing a single beat. This was a choice he didn't have to think about, he has never loved anyone more and he was not going through another loss like this. Zoro was looking up at the ceiling with his eyes closed.

"Luffy asked me to protect you." It was the only thing he said, the two on the bead knew exactly what he meant. Their choice was clear, and each one of them would die to protect the baby growing in Nami's womb. No matter what the cost was.

Soon after they got Nami up onto laws back, fever leaving her too weak to walk and paid their dues at the inn and left for the yellow submarine; just off the shore on the east side of the island. Law was sure to grab extra supplies from the hospital and they left, sinking into the waves. Praying they were not being followed.

Somewhere Else

The Straw hats were conducting business as usual, engaging in some loud shenanigans to pass the time. There was an unspoken tension with the crew however, because they were all waiting to hear from the two members they were missing.

"LUFFY! LUFFY!" chopper pipped hopping up and down.

"Whats the matter Chopper?" Robin asked deciding to take over for Luffy, who was not paying attention.

"The news coo came, it said it had a message from Nami and Law." Chopper handed Robin the paper in his hand. She took it from him and started to read it out loud to the rest of the crew who started to pay attention after hearing Nami's name.

"News coo?" Robin thought to herself out loud, she knew that news coo were capable of this kind of thing it was rare from someone outside the revolutionary army to use it.

"What does it say?" Usopp asked looking at Robin.

"It's from Law, they have been hunted down by the Navy. To keep everyone safe they have to go offline. The Navy wants them to surrender their baby by threat of death, this is the easiest way to keep them safe." Robin set the note down, being quiet to allow some time to let the words being said sink in for the crew, who was notoriously slow at times.

"Robin-San. How are they able to send messages through news coo?" Brooke asked sipping his tea. It seemed that the rest of the crew wanted to know this as well, because they were still listening.

"The Revolutionary army developed this method for safe communication a long time ago, they trained the birds to deliver messages right under the Navy's nose. Because very few can actually communicate with the birds it became a main method of communication. I am surprised Law-kun knew about this." Robin answered promptly. Everyone looked to Luffy who sat on the grass head down deep in thought. He had not said anything this whole time. After a considerable amount of silence he looked up smiling.

"We are going to go help them!" He declared. Fist in his hand. "Robin send a return message, we will go to them to help fight." He gave the order and the rest of the crew enthusiastically agreed. Robin sent the message off and they waited for their reply.

Under the Sea

Nami shivered, she had developed a raging fever; mixed with the regular morning sickness it became a beast of its own. Law had a permanent I.V in her and also put her on bed rest. They had only been cut off from the world for about a week however this has caused a considerable break in morale amongst his crew. Law put penguin on watch for any birds who might be looking for them, also staying close to the surface. They continued to wait for another week since they sent the first message, Law was praying for anything to come through at this point. It seemed that Zoro was on the same page as Law, he was going crazy watching Nami deteriorate with nothing else to distract him, not even sleep would do it at this point. What neither of the men expected to hear was Bepo tearing down the steel halls yelling Laws name.

"LAW!" He burst loudly into the opritorium, the two men darted up from their chairs hands on their swords ready to fight anything that moved.

"The..Mugi..waras.." He put his head down trying to catch his breath. He held out the paper in his hand offering it to them. As he opened the note another slip of paper fell out of it, he let it fall to the ground as he read the note out loud.

"Tra-guy kun, stay where you are. We are coming to help. Here is some of Luffy's vivre card." He picked up the paper that had fallen and was slowly inching its way across the floor. He looked over at Nami who had mumbled something in response to the note, walking back over to her he pushed the damp hair off of her forehead.

"Hold on a little longer baby, we're gonna be alright." He said quietly. If it took the bird two weeks to get to them then they were a long way off by ship. Worry set in for Nami as she seemed to be getting worse, law determined she was midway through her second trimester. The sickness should have stopped with all the time that had really gone by. For some reason it just didn't and she couldn't deliver in this current state. They didn't have much time left,it was the one thing everyone was sure abou. But for Law the hardest pill to swallow, was the fact that despite all this, all they could do was wait.
