Chapter 5

Macey whistled as Sabo lead the way to the bandits' house where Ace and Luffy should be. Jack had a book out and was taking notes as they walked. Macey has a pretty damn good memory so she knew that she would be able to lead them back to the shore area near the ship for Don to pick them up.

Sabo kept looking over his shoulder to make sure that Macey and Jack were still following him. At one point, Macey got distracted and started to wonder away, just like Luffy did sometimes and if it wasn't for the fact that Sabo had looked he was pretty sure that Jack never could have noticed that Macey had started to wonder off.

Macey was seriously pretty- her long blonde hair and her blue eyes. Her oversize purple shirt, her long black pants, her aqua (or was turquoise? Sabo should really ask) sash tied around her waist, her black sandals and her aqua (or turquoise) soft headband that was holding her long blonde hair out of her face. Something about the look just seemed, so her and she was seriously really pretty. Did Sabo say that already? If not, she was seriously really pretty.

How was Ace going to react? The only pretty woman that they really knew was Makino because the other only woman that they knew was Dadan, and she wasn't pretty, not at all. So how was Ace going to react to Macey? In fact, how was Luffy going to react?

Macey stopped whistling suddenly which got Sabo's attention right away. Macey was looking off into the distance and glaring at something. Like she was seeing something that Sabo couldn't.

"Miss Macey?" Sabo asked as Jack stopped walking, realising that Sabo and Macey had stopped walking. "Is something wrong?"

Macey kept looking off in north-north-east kind of whatever direction she was facing.

"Not sure," Macey answered as she closed her eyes. "I can sense… a lot of people off that way… I think they're guards from town looking for survivors from the fire."

"Or me," Sabo muttered miserably. "My parents probably won't stop looking for me."

Macey put her hand on Sabo's shoulder and he looked up at the slightly older and taller blonde.

"Well if they find you they have to fight me for ya," the blonde girl smiled.

Sabo felt himself blush and he looked away from the older blonde girl.

"Thanks," Sabo quickly said.

"Cap, no," Jack said suddenly which got Sabo's attention. Why was Jack saying no to Macey?

"No what Jackie?" Macey questioned.

"I know that face! No!" Jack told Macey as they started walking again but this time instead of following Sabo they were following Macey- why were they following Macey? Did she know where they were going? Weren't they meant to be following Sabo to the bandits?

"And what face is that?"

"It's your 'well, I have plan and it's going to amusing' face! Every time you have that face on we end up in some kind of trouble! So no! Whatever is it that you're thinking Captain! No!"

"Well that's fine. I'll do it all by myself."

"Even with your bad feeling?"

"That's why I doing it."

"What?! That makes no sense what so ever!"

"It makes perfect sense thank you very much Jackie. I make the trouble so then the bad feeling will go away. Nothing can be worse than me making trouble for someone else."

Jack couldn't argue against that…

"What if you making this trouble is the reason behind the bad feeling?"

"Then, I will live with it. You guys don't have to get involved. Hey! Sabo? What do you think about showing those snotty nobles whose boss? Huh? You, your two brothers and me. It'll be fun. Promise!"

Sabo looked at Macey, why was she asking that? Was that a little dangerous? But it also sounded good and fun… Ace and Luffy would love that idea.

"You're getting the new kid involved but don't want me or the other involved!? That's cold Captain, that's cold."

"I thought you said you didn't wanted anything to do with it?"

"No, I said I didn't want to do it. Difference Cap."

"I guess that's true!" Macey laughed, as she looked back Sabo. "So, what do you say Sabo? Think you and your brothers are up to ruining the Nobles' day, plans and mood? Doing something that will make your parents back right off?"

Sabo liked the sound of that.

"Yes, let's," Sabo nodded/ "Though, may I ask what it is that I have just agreed to?"

Macey had a cunning smiling on her face, "We're going to mess with the Celestial Dragon."

Sabo was speechless and Jack was not only speechless but down right shocked.

"You willing want to mess with one of those monsters!?" Jack shouted. "No-one messes with them! You end up having a Marine Admiral to have to deal with and after you!"

Oh, that's where Macey's plan is perfect, because there is no Admiral Marine nearby here!

"But there's no Admiral Marine here in the East anymore," Macey smiled. "And the closest one is too far away to do anything to us anyway. It's the perfect time to mess with the scum of this earth. After all, compared to the callowness of greedy authority figures, the criminals of the world are so much more humane. After all, when scum rules the world only new scum is born and the cycle will keep on repeating until someone is brave enough to stand up against it and put a stop it. And if that someone happens to be me, then so be it. I will set this world free from that callowness of greedy authority figures, one way or another. It's what I stand for, now this is what the Freedom Fighters stand for. That is what true freedom is after all. Well, that's what I happen to think anyway."

Jack's mouth dropped- how the hell did a twelve year old kid just sum up the world like it was nothing!? How does a kid even know things like this!? Where the hell did that come from!? Seriously, where the hell did that come from!? Jack would love to know. How can someone so much younger than him already knew how the world works better than he did? He's eighteen and she's twelve!

"Well, when you put it that way," Jack sighed, damn it. Why does Macey have to always be right!? "I guess I have no choice but to stand up and help you. Damn it Captain, you're going to get us all killed one day thinking like this."

Macey shrugged her shoulders, "Better to die trying for our dreams and freedom then being alive without freedom and failed dreams!" she concluded.

Seriously, how is this kid so wise for someone so young!? How can she just say things like it means nothing, just like that?!

"But isn't messing with a Celestial Dragon dangerous and um, I don't know, maybe a little reckless?" Sabo asked Macey a little nervous. They are World Nobles after all, a step above the Royalty and Nobles of this world. Isn't this just a little dangerous and reckless?

"Try stupid, crazy and insane," Jack muttered.

"Well, yes," Macey laughed. "But it's fine! It's not my first dance with a Celestial Dragon. We'll be fine. In fact, this one will be better because I'm not by myself!"

"You've messed with them before!?" Sabo shouted.

"Yes, yes I have," Macey smiled and nodded. "It's how I met Don and Sin and got the Free Flyer. She's from a Celestial Dragon that was up in the West Blue, where I'm from."

"You know," Jack said. "The way you were talking before, about taking down the government and stuff. It almost started like something that a leader or member of the Revolutionary Army or something would say and/or do."

Macey cracked up laughing.

"Well, I'm not really going take on the whole world unless really needed, because that's just plain stupid," Macey told Jack. "I more or less mean we'll mess with whatever authority we can and run for it. One would want an army if they were going to take on or take down the World Government system itself. I more just want to show up The World Nobles, World Government and the Marines and mess with them and take them down a knot or two. Give them a big 'fuck you too' kind of thing. If you're taking down the government and the system itself, you would need a plan and time and some sort plan for what happens afterwards. I know I'm thinker and a planner but I don't think and plan that far ahead. Too much work and I don't care that much about the world or its future that much."

"So, you just want to put them place and show them that they aren't better than us like they think they are?" Sabo summarised from Macey's speech.

"Yep!" Macey nodded, "So, you're still in, right?"

Sabo sighed, well, there was no way he was letting backing out now or letting Macey do it all by herself. She might actually get herself killed if he didn't go with her.

"For better or for worse," Sabo told Macey.

"Great!" Macey cheered. "Now, where the hell are we?"


Luffy just sat there against the wall as he waited for Ace and Dadan to get back. The bandits wouldn't let him leave, even though they were worried about Ace and Dadan too! Why aren't they looking for them!? Luffy doesn't understand!

A bandit come running- panting- as he pointed- "Strangers are heading this way!"

Strangers…? Why would strangers be heading this way…?

"Guards from the town?" Dogra asked.

"Don't think so," the man panted. "They weren't wearing those type of clothes and one was really tall compared to the other two and… and… and of them… and one of them looked like Sabo…"

Sabo?

"Sabo's back!?" Luffy beamed as he got up putting his straw-hat on his head but got stopped from one of the other bandits.

"It might not be Sabo Luffy," the bandit told him/ "They're strangers and one of them just happens to look like Sabo? What if it's trap or something? We should wait for them get closer."

"But Sabo!" Luffy whined.

"They'll be here soon," the lookout bandit told the others, "We should prepare ourselves."

"Right," the bandits all nodded getting themselves and their weapons ready for a fight. They would protect Luffy and their home till their leader and Ace got back! Even if it killed them!


Ace looked at Dadan as they stopped again. Damn it this was taking too long. They were slowing down. Not that Ace could blame Dadan for slowing down, she was badly burnt from protecting Ace from getting burned. And there was no way that Ace was going to just leave Dadan, not after everything she has done!

Damn it they need to back to Dadan Country! And get Dadan's burns treated! And there was only way that was going happen. Ace was going to have carry Dadan.


Macey whistled as they got to a house in a small clearing area. It was nice sized house, not small but not overly hugely big either. It was two stories, was a kind of yellow colour on the outside, red roof and there were lots of trees around it. It looked like nice house.

Very homey.

"This is where you live?" Jack asked Sabo.

"It's where the bandits live," Sabo told Jack. "My brothers and me live in the treehouse we built, the place where we stopped first. Since they weren't there they'll probably be here."

Jack nodded his head as Macey stopped walking and looked to their left. There was person standing there, wearing a white cloak… what the hell…?

"Ace! Luffy!" Sabo said opening the door. "Dadan! Guys! I'm back!"

The bandits tackled Jack to the ground to keep him away from Sabo as Luffy tackled his blonde brother to the ground, crying.

"SABO!" Luffy cried hugging is brother.

"Hey Lu," Sabo smiled as he hugged his brother back.

"Oi! Sabo! Get them off me!" Jack shouted. Opps, Sabo had kind of forgotten about the older guy for a moment- Sabo should probably get them off him.

"Guys?" Sabo smiled. "It's fine. Jack there here is a friend of the girl who rescued me."

The bandits all stared at Jack for a moment then looked at Sabo then each other. They nodded their heads and got up from Jack.

"I can breathe!" Jack cheered.

"Thank you for saving Sabo," a small bandit said as he bowed.

Jack laughed, "I didn't save the blondie. That was the other blondie, my Captain. She saved him."

"Other blonde?" the small bandit frowned.

"Yeah," Jack nodded a little confused. "The blonde hair girl that come here with us. She's the one you should be thanking."

"What blonde girl?" one of the bandits asked. "You're the only here we don't know. Though I did see someone else walking with you here… but I have no idea where they are now…"

Jack looked at them really confused, "No, the Cap, Mace come with us. Right Sabo?"

"Right," Sabo nodded, "I do owe my life to Miss Macey for rescuing me."

"But there's no-one else here," Dogra told Sabo.

Sabo and Jack looked around for Macey and realised that they were right. Macey was gone. What!? Where the hell did she go!?

"Don's going to kill me!" Jack panicked, "I can't lose the Captain! Not again! I'll never hear the end of it! Then Don's going to kill me!"

"Miss Macey! Miss Macey!" Sabo shouted, "This is not good. We have to find her!"


Macey followed the white-cloaked figure till they finally stopped. Why did Macey follow them? She was curious of course! She wanted to know who they were and what they were doing here! Who was the white cloaked figured anyway?

"Who are you?" Macey asked with a smile.

"I am known by many names, girl," the person said.

Macey frowned she didn't like this person. Not because they called her girl but something about them felt off.

"Would I know any of them?" Macey asked frowning.

"God, Grim Reaper, the Devil, Satan, Angels, the Seer, Oracle and many more," the person answered. "But I prefer Balance or Scales."

God…? Was this person insane or something? Who the hell is this person? Why did Macey follow them again…?

"You, girl, shouldn't be here," the person said pointing at Macey. "You shouldn't exist. You changed things. You're changed too many people's futures."

Okay, this person must be insane. How can Macey be existing right now if she wasn't meant to exist in the first place?

"The world had its pattern, its course and you have changed it," the figure told Macey. "I don't why you are here or how. But now I can't change it back. I can't change the world back into its original pattern. You changed too much. You stupid girl."

"Like whose future Mr God?" Macey asked not believing this weirdo for a minute, seriously, who calls themselves them a god other than weirdos and authority figures that Macey really wants to take down? "Whose futures have I changed? What I have changed so much that you can't fix it?" seriously, who does this guy thing he is? What drugs was he on? They must be good ones to make him think that he was a god.

"The blonde boy for a start," the person answered.

"Sabo? What about him?" Macey asked getting ready to attack the man. What did Sabo have to do with this?

The figure smirked, "Easy. I'll show you."

A huge bright light engulfed Macey and the figure and they disappeared.


One and bit week later, somewhere in the New World on the Moby Dick…

"It will only take a few months," West told Marco. "Come on Marco! Be cool! I'll be as quick as I can be!"

"No," Marco told West deadpan. "You are not chasing after your niece."

"But Marco!" West whined. Why was West starting to act and sound like Thatch right now? "We all know you're worried sicked about her! She's your daughter after all! How can you not worry? Come on! Just let me go to East Blue and check up on her! It will take a few months then I'll be right back! I swear! Come on! I'm not Thatch!"

"HEY!" said brother shouted.

"Sorry! But it's true!" West yelled over his shoulder. "Come on Marco! If you don't let me go and do this for everyone then they will make the Moby Dick go there instead! Come on! Please!"

"FINE-YOI!" Marco shouted. Sick and tired of this argument already. "But you better be careful West. I already do most of the paperwork as it is. I don't want more to do! I don't need the Second Division paper work on top of everything else!"

"No problem Marco!" West smiled. "I'm telling her that you can't wait to see her!"

Marco gripped the man's shoulder before he could leave.

"Don't make contact with her," Marco warned and told West who frowned, "You're just checking to make sure that she and her crew are fine. We do not need contact them. We don't want people to get the wrong idea our relationship with them West. It might cause more harm than good if people realise we are interested in them. It can wait till they are in the new world or at least Paradise. Understood?"

West thought about it for moment then nodded his head. It wouldn't help the Freedom Fighters at all if people knew that Whitebeard, a Yonko was interested in them when they were still such a new crew and pirates. It might cause people to action stupidly and to try and look into the Captain and crew.

And that will only cause more harm than good. No one outside of this crew could know that Mace is Marco's daughter. It would put her and her crew in a lot of danger, not only from other pirates but with the Marines and the World Government too.

So since West is going to check up on her, he needed to do it as stealthily as he can.

"Right," West agreed. "I'll just spy on them and keep an eye on them for a little bit then come right back once I do and am happy that they are good. I'll take lots of photos for everyone. Miss you all already."

Why does Marco have a feeling that he was going to regret this?
