Hey thank you all for your reviews. It makes me so happy to read them. I don't own One Piece only Oda does, but here's chapter ten. Short chapter sorry.
LAW
The sea demon kissed Milo completely unaware of what was about to happen. Electricity gathered around Milo crackling and popping. The demon growled and Milo went flying as the demon tried to escape.
"You're just like the others." The demon screeched finding that he was trapped. Milo stood, but she wasn't Milo. Sure it was still Milo's body, but her eyes were no longer green. They were violet with no pupil and no white.
Whoever it was didn't speak only held out her hand. Electricity surrounded it. It seemed bigger than the blast Milo had thrown at the demon. For a moment it seemed that the demon's eyes widened with fear. Then he gained control of himself. "You know not what you are doing. That much energy could kill you as well as me." The demon hissed. The person inside Milo's body didn't even hesitate as she directed the blast towards the demon.
Bright light flooded the room temporarily blinding everyone. When we could see again Milo was lying unconscious on the floor. Her hair was no longer reddish brown but now white slowly turning purple. "Milo!" Shachi shouted racing to his sister. She almost looked like a sleeping princess. Milo groaned as she sat up.
"Don't call me princess." She muttered. Hmm. How had she heard that? Milo shook her head.
"I didn't say anything." Shachi protested.
"Somebody did. They said I looked like a sleeping princess." Milo protested. I smirked.
"No one said anything." Shachi argued. Milo rolled her eyes.
I know you thought it Captain. A voice said inside my head. Milo was looking at me quite intently though the expression on her face was one of complete innocence before she turned to face Letta. "Do you happen to know where they took my clothes? I'd rather like to get back into my regular outfit. I don't particularly like dresses." Letta nodded and grabbed Milo's wrist as she stood up. They disappeared through a curtain that probably led to an adjoining room.
"Oh god." Shachi muttered sinking to the floor.
"What?" Penguin asked him.
"I always knew Milo was a bit of an oddball. Always with her tech and such, but now I feel as if I'm letting her slip through my fingers." Shachi answered his eyes fixed on the spot where Milo had been.
"Oh don't worry. I'm sure milo's going to be the same as she's always been. You're not going to lose her." Penguin said trying to comfort his friend.
"Right you are Penguin. As for you big brother what have I told you about waiting until I was out of earshot to start talking about me behind my back?" Milo said leaning against the doorway. She was now dressed in a green tank top, black cargo pants that seemed to have less pockets than usual, and her signature tan combat boots with black laces.
"Milo!" Shachi shouted jumping to his feet and tackling her like he had meant to do earlier when she was just a hologram.
"Ugh. You're like a giant dog big brother." Milo muttered pushing Shachi off of her and standing. "So are we ready to leave the island?" She asked turning to us.
"So soon Miss Milo?" I asked mostly to get a rise out of her. Milo crinkled her nose.
"Yes and captain please just call me Milo." Milo requested as she reached for her brother and pulled the hand held ice cream out of his pocket. She carefully read the label before popping off the top and fishing a spoon out of one of her own pockets. Of course Milo would always have a spoon ready for her ice cream. "Bye Letta!" Milo called as the six of us left, Milo munching on ice cream while we walked back to the sub.
Letta appeared in the doorway and waved good bye. "I hope to see you again Milo." Letta said. Milo nodded ethusiclly (sp) the spoon hanging from her mouth. We made it to the sub without further incident.
"I guess this was my welcome to the pirate graveyard." Milo muttered. I chuckled.
"I guess it was Milo." I told her. Shachi looked between us.
"So Captain which one is true? Is Milo just your technological expert? Or is she something important to you?" Shachi asked. He was using the same tone he had used when he wanted to know what would happen to Milo when she fried the demon.
"Shachi drop it." Milo growled around a spoonful of ice cream.
"But Milo." Shachi protested. Milo sent him a sharp glare over her ice cream that shut Shachi up quickly. But this conversation wasn't over. It was for now, but Shachi needed/wanted to know.
Milo finished off her ice cream and yawned. Shachi groaned. "Oh I'm not that bad." Milo muttered giving her brother a look of pure innocence.
"Why don't you ask Captain?" Shachi asked crossing his arms.
"Because I've never shared a bed with Captain." Milo replied.
"What are you two talking about?" I asked. Milo jumped as if she'd forgotten I was there.
"Because Milo so often falls asleep while she's working and she's been plagued by nightmares most of her life she doesn't have her own bed and most of the time steals mine." Shachi answered. I wrapped my arm around Milo's waist and pulled her closer to me.
"Is that so?" I asked.
"Yeah." Milo answered sounding just a little uncomfortable. I let her go.
"Follow me." I commanded.
