Chapter 3

Rose sat on the ground as she went thought some of her acquired memories. She could preform a lot of the spells quite easily and they helped a lot in their day to day activities. Right now, her brothers had gone hunting. She said she wanted to continue learning more spells, especially since she was just about finished fifth year spells and went onto to sixth year. She wanted to finish all the spells taught in Hogwarts fast so she could learn others.

Especially parsalmagic.

It was completely amazing, especially since most of the spells were healing spells. There were a lot of spells that were considered dark as well, most of them came from Voldemort, but surprisingly Dumbledore, the so-called leader of light also knew a number of them. She didn't care thought, it wasn't like the Ministry was going to know. She vaguely wondered if she should get a wand, when she realized it was getting late and they still never came.

They had actually found something surprising from Sabo. Apparently he was the son of a noble, who ran away at the age of five, five years ago. A couple days ago, they had ran into his father, who looked like he was shocked to see him. They reassured him that it didn't matter, and that he was still their brother. Wondering where they went, she set out after them.

When she finally reached the Grey Terminal, she quickly hide. The entire area was crawling with Bluejam's men, which was odd. Panic raised from her, hoping that none of them were captured. Creeping a bit closer, she had finally saw a bit of yellow, which she immediately knew it was Luffy's shirt. When she got a better view, she saw that he was with Ace and they were both setting things over the Grey Terminal.

Rose wondered how she would get their attention, when Ace's eyes suddenly met with hers. His eyes widen in shock and she pressed her finger on her lips, telling him to be quite. He nodded and moved closer to Luffy. She grinned, glad he knew what she was going to do. Preforming the spell she was trying to perfect for the past year, she felt herself being squeezed in a tube and was suddenly in front of them. Before anyone could register what had happened, she grabbed both their arms and pictured them at Dadan's place.

Just as soon as she came, they had all left an were now in front of Dadan's place. Letting both of them go, she panted a bit over the stress of apparting. She hadn't done it twice in a row, especially over a long distance, but she was glad her magic held up.

"Rose? Are you alright?" she heard her elder brother ask her as he helped her stand.

"I'm fine, just need to catch my breath." she smiled.

"That was awesome Rose! You finally made it work!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly, bring them into a hug and even Ace couldn't scowl at him.

"That was still really reckless of you. What do you think could have happened if you didn't make it her?" Ace scolded her and she rolled her eyes at his over-protectiveness.

"I'm fine Ace really." she waved him off and then asked, "Where's Sabo? I couldn't see him. Was he not with you?" she asked and wondered what happened to her blonde brother when their heads hung low.

"Sabo was taken by his father. It was either he left or Bluejam would have killed us, so he left." Luffy said sadly and she saw Ace shake in anger.

"Don't worry, we'll get him back right now." she said, anger laced in her voice. She wasn't going to let some noble piece of shit separate her family.

"You used up too much magic just now. I don't want you overly exhausted, but we should go after Sabo." Ace let his opinion be know, still glaring at her. She just gave him a cheeky grin.

"Of course my dear brother. We'll ask Athena." she said and just as she said the Phoenix's name, she had appeared.

Ace and Luffy stared at the bird in awe. No matter how many times they had seen her, Athena was still cool.

"Yes Rose?" she asked.

"Sabo was taken. Do you think you could take us to him?" she asked, getting a positive trill in response.

"Lets go." she grinned, grabbing both their hands. With Athena on her shoulder, the Phoenix flashed them to the location of their missing brother.

Opening their eyes, they could see that they're in a fairly large room, neat and tidy. A bed to one side a bookshelf filled with books on the other. Besides it was a desk and a familiar blond who seemed to be writing something.

"Sabo!" they exclaimed, tackling the startled and shocked blonde into a hug.

Sabo was speechless as he hugged by his family. He had never believed he was going to see them again, seeing that he was planning on escaping the next day. Shit, he thought, I hope they never find out.

"How did you guys-Rose did you perfect it?" he asked, after they finished their little reunion.

"I used it to bring Ace and Luffy to safety, but we came here with Athena." she said, giving him one last squeeze. They heard yells coming from outside the room and hurried footsteps.

"We have to leave now!" Sabo panicked and grabbing onto their sister, Athena flashed them away just as the door had swung opened.

After they had brought Sabo back, the four siblings had grown closer, creating a bond that no one could ever break. They made a vow, a vow that they would live their lives to the fullest without any regret. They trained harder than ever, each in their respective skills so they would never be separated ever again, or feel powerless.

Ace and Luffy continued fighting with their fists, with the elder one helping his younger brother control his devil fruit ability. Sabo had continued to train with his staff and after Rose had added some runes on it, it became a deadly weapon. They had also trained together with daggers, both liking weapons a lot more than the other two, who favored their fists. Rose herself had asked her Gramps for some target practice with the her gun. He agreed and even though he hadn't used a gun, he was quite proficient at teaching her on how to use it. She had managed to finish her Hogwarts education and learn much more advanced spells, her favorite being conjuration, making thing out of pure magic from thin air. It at first took a lot of magic from her, but over time she was able to get the hang of it.

After the incident, Ace had become a lot more mature and even ask Makino for some lessons in manners, wanting to be a better role model for his siblings. They had all changed, each taking their bond much more serious. Luffy and Rose had especially had become closer, with him asking her out just before their eldest brothers left for their adventures. She of course agreed and their older siblings were happy for them. They knew they had each other's back and after what happened to Rose before, they knew Luffy would treasure her.

The distress happened when Athena had delivered Rose her Hogwarts letter. It was addressed to Location: Unknown. Rose seemed to debate over the possibility of even going for a bit, like a year, for experience, but it was immediately shot down, with Ace grabbing the letter, ripping it and then burning it. The incident was forgotten right after and never spoken of again.

Right now, both Rose and Luffy, fourteen, were bored. They had hunted for the day, trained and had absolute no idea what to do. Ace and Sabo were gone for a couple months and the place seemed so quite. Even gramps left yesterday, after giving them a training lesson, but thanks to Rose's growing spell list in healing, they were alright. Just as they were wondering what they would do, Athena had arrived.

"I have a present for you both." she trilled, giving her bonded an envelope.

Raising her eyebrow, Rose opened the envelope with Luffy peering from behind her, hands hugging her waist. Rose took out two papers, which looked like tickets.

"What are these?" she asked.

"Lady Magics wants you to get antiquated with the magically world. She sees that you're both bored and since you've never been there it would be like a great adventure." she trilled. "These are tickets to a famous wizarding sport called Quiditch. She'd like for you to go."

"How exactly did you get these?" Luffy asked, looking over the tickets. The idea of going on an adventure was exciting, but he didn't want Rose to be in danger if that meant going to the wizarding world.

"I'd like to know too and where did you get the money from?" Rose stared at her familiar, wondering how people sold thinks to animals in the first thing. She had met Lady Magics, who she called 'mum' since the woman treated her as such and had always cared for her well-being.

"I got them from the goblins. Your mother has a vault set up for you so you don't have to worry about money. Please go, it'll make your mother happy." she said softly.

Rose turned to her boyfriend with pleading eyes, knowing he would be against it. Luffy just sighed, kissing her forehead.

"We'll go." he said, getting a happy sequel and tackled into a hug and then kiss.

"But try not to bring too much attention to yourself, alright?" he said softly, brushing his fingers in her hair. She grinned and nodded. They didn't know what was going on in the wizarding world or her former family, so they had to be careful.

The first place they went to was Gringotts. Rose didn't want to go anywhere until she had a means to pay for it. The goblins were nice, after they found out who she was. They had told her about her account and she was in shock at the amount of money she had. They had placed her money in various invest ever since she was four and it had more than doubled since then. After giving her a Gringotts card, and explained how it worked, she and Luffy had left the bank.

Rose had placed a glamour spell on them both because they wore, were different and would have caused a lot of problems. Normally, she wouldn't care as she felt comfortable wearing her black shorts, long baggy light green tank top shirt and sneakers and Luffy wore his normal red vest and blue jean shorts, but right now, she wanted to explore in peace.

The first store they entered was a book store which had so much books. There were a couple that she wanted, like those that dealt with healing, enchanting, her favorite being spell crafting. She would have stayed the entire day, if Luffy hadn't dragged her out. She wanted to buy a trunk an bought one with multiple compartments with a large library. She also like the bottomless bags and got herself and Luffy a pair.

Next, they went to get potion ingredients. Rose had a very well detailed conversation with the owner of the establishment, who said they would look for a way she could get the ingredients she needed into her compartment without having to come her all the time. The owner believed she lived too far and said he would look into it.

Having finished that and looking at the other stores, they had settled down to get some ice-cream. They ate it in peace, since they weren't going to do their normal dine n' dashes. Rose wanted to go to the non-magical world next since she wanted to buy clothes and the ones in the wizarding world were just plain weird. Finishing their ice-cream and a great drink called butter-beer, they set off to their next destination, after she told Luffy not to use his devil fruit ability.

"I'm glad we came here. Now we don't have to bother Makino all the time." she smiled as they left the clothing store, both carrying numbers of bags.

"I'd wish you'd wear less revealing clothes." Luffy muttered, making her grin and kiss him on the cheek.

"There's no need to be jealous Lu. You're the only one for me after all." she whispered, making him smile and despite carrying all those bags, he picked her up an twirled her around, planting a kiss on her lips. She giggled. A lot of people thought he was stupid or dumb, but Luffy was quite intelligent. He simply did so in order for people not to fear him and be at ease. It was something special really.

As they were going to turn the corner, something within the dark ally caught their eye. Walking a bit closer to see, they saw about four to five thugs, all with weapons, ganging up on a blonde haired boy, who looked a bit stuck up, but in this situation, he didn't have any of the arrogance he looked to have, but fear was written on his face as the blood dripped from his at one another, they nodded. Rose looked around the area and quickly shrunk their bags and put it in her pocket.

"Hey! What the hell are you guys doing?"

Draco was not having a great day. At first, it started out normal. He woke up, got dressed, ha breakfast, until his father said he was going to accompany him one of the companies they had in the muggle world. At first, he was disgusted, not wanting to go and wondering why his father even had business in their, but after it was explained to him that muggles were easier to extort money from, he grudgingly agreed.

Upon entering the muggle world, he tried to hide his sneer and disgust, but a part of him was in awe. He always heard that muggles were uncivilized barbarians, but the more he learned about them, the less he believed it. They had advance, much to his annoyance, far beyond the magical world. They had something called the telly and a phone, which was much better than sticking your head in the fire place. After his father said business would take longer than he thought, he decided to look around.

That was a mistake, for after a while, as he was 'window-shopping' as his mother called it, he didn't know when he stumbled on an abandoned part of the street. Wanting to turn around, he was immediately corner by thugs, all carrying weapons and were much bigger than him. Instinctively, he reached for his wand, but then cursed himself since he didn't have because he wasn't allowed to use magic outside of school.

"Well what do we have here? A little prince far from home. What do you boys think we should do?" the largest he believed was the leader, cackled manically. Draco was afraid, yes, but he was a Malfroy and he would show fear.

"Leave me alone. I was just one my way out." he sniffed, turning to leave, but a large hand shoved him into a dark alley, roughly as he hit his head.

"I think we should teach this little shit a lesson." another grinned, and then reared his hand and punched him in the face. Ouch that hurt and he cradled his bloody lip, his lips trembling, but he wouldn't cry.

"Ha, the little princess wants his mommy an daddy!" and they all roared in laughter.

"Hey! What the hell are you guys doing?" and all their heads whipped to the two strangers that had came, a girl and a boy, both looked like they were his age. Draco didn't know if they were brave or stupid for trying to save him, but he was thankful nonetheless.

"What's it to you? Why don't you run along little girl, before you get hurt." one of them said and Draco saw the raven haired boy, flash with anger and that was when hell broke loose. Draco could only describe the boy in one word; a monster. Not only did he beat them, he had almost killed him. He moved in a speed Draco didn't think muggles could move in.

"Lu? Lu, thats enough. You're going to kill them!" the girl's yelling seemed to have brought him back as he saw her pull him into a hug and then kiss him. Oh, so that explained it. They were together.

"But...he ..you."

"I'm alright. You don't really think he could have beaten me, do you?" she grinned, making the boy smile and kiss her. Draco groaned a bit as he tried to stand and that seemed to snapped them out of their moment.

Rose looked at the boy with a bloody lip. She was glad they had came when they did. She slowly walked over to the boy, showing him hat she meant no danger. From the magic she could sense from him, she know he was a magical child.

"Are you alright? They didn't harm you too much did they?" she asked, kneeling besides him. He seemed a bit shaken up as he just shook his head no. Luffy was at the side, putting all the thugs in a pile.

"Will you let me heal you?" she asked, putting her hands up to his face, getting a positive response. Draco wondered how the muggle would heal him but his eyes widen when he heard her hiss.

"Heal." Rose spoke in parsaltongue and a green glow emitted from her hands. After a couple moments, all his injuries were taken care off.

"And that should do it." she smiled, standing up. She extended her hand to the shocked boy.

"Y-You!" he stuttered.

"Yes, I'm a witch, just like you're a wizard and yes, I'm a parsalmouth. I don't quite care who you tell, its not all scary really." she shrugged, remembering from the memories she got that being a parsalmouth was consider dark.

Draco seemed to get out of his shock, and accepted the extended hand. He couldn't believe he had actually found someone that could speak parsalmouth. Despite the fact she dressed like a muggle and her clothes were very revealing, he could tell she was quite beautiful as well, but she was with someone already and as a Malfroy, he was not going to bite the hand that feed him-or in this case saved him.

"Thank you for helping me. My name is Draco Malfroy. May I ask you yours?" he asked, his pureblood training kicking in.

"My name is Portgas D. Rose, but you could just call me Rose and this is my boyfriend Monkey D. Luffy. Its nice to met you Mr. Malfroy." she replied, remembering the etiquette in this world.

"Please, call me Draco. Its nice to me you Rose and-"

"Luffy is fine." Luffy interrupt him as he hugged Rose from the back.

"Luffy it is then." he nodded, somewhat fearful of the raven male, who normally would look like a threat due to his slim form. "Were you going somewhere in particular?" he asked, wanting to invite them to dinner as thanks.

"We were going to eat lunch and then head to the Quditch World Cup next." Rose answered as she held the raven's hand when they exited the alley and went looking for a place to eat.

"Really? I was going there as well. I just have to met my father before, but would you like to go together?" he asked, looking at hem both. Rose shrugged and Luffy answered,

"Sure. We can get going after we have something to eat." he said, his eyes lighten up when they saw a restaurant.

"Then lunch will be one me as a thank you." Draco said, having a feeling that he would want them as friends.

Even after they had heard of his last name, they didn't flinch, or look at him as gold or as some opportunity that needed to be taken advantage of. They didn't even bat an eyelash and one thing Draco always longed for were friends who would like him for him and not his title or money. He was sure his mother would approve, she wasn't one for the pureblood laws, he knew and his father would too when he found out the girl was a parsalmouth.

"Oh Draco. There's no need to pay." Rose said in a sickly sweet tone, that made him shiver. Luffy just chuckled, knowing what she had in mind. Draco wondered what she was going to say, but what she said completely blew him away,

"Draco, why don't we teach you about our favorite game. Its call Dine 'n Dash."

"What?!"
