Luffy threw the game controller on the ground and crossed his arms.

"I give up. I'm to dumb to play this stupid game,"he mumbled. Ace covered his mouth with his hand.'This is torture! Why is Luffy so cute even when he's pouting?' "I'm not smart enough to figure out the game like you did." Ace chuckled slightly, which made Luffy glare at him. "What's so funny?"

"N-nothing really, do you want to watch a movie instead?" Luffy smiled,"Okay! What do you want to watch? I'm in the mood for a comedy!" The stewardess walked over next to Luffy and refilled his cup with apple juice. "Thank you." Luffy turned to Ace,"It's all up to you. You can choose the movie." Ace smiled,"All right then, I'll pick a good one." Ace unbuckled his seat belt and walked over to the black movie case. He took out a blue disk that had a skull wearing straw hat on it, and held it up so Luffy could see. "Do you want to watch this? It's this funny anime about this boy who wants to become the pirate king and get the ultimate treasure." Luffy laughed,"Pirate king? What a weird guy!"

"Since you've never seen it before we'll start from the beginning." Luffy smiled,"Okay." Ace pressed the forward button on the DVD player, skipping the intro. He calmly walked back to his seat and crossed his legs. The stewardess brought out two silver platters with a lobster dinner on each, she gently set them down infront of Ace and Luffy on the foldable table the chairs had and walked away.

"You know what, Ace?"

"What?"

"For an anime, the main character is pretty handsome."

"Is he really now? What do you think about his older brother? I think he's pretty handsome, quite a looker." Luffy giggled,"He could use some work, the main character is still better than him."

"Really? I favor the older brother. I mean he has to deal with that troublesome little brother, always getting him out of trouble. I can kinda sympathize with the poor guy."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing really, just a comment. I can't count all the times I had to get you out of trouble, so I simply stated the I sympathize with the older brother in the anime." Luffy stuck a piece of lobster in his mouth, he couldn't deny the fact that Ace always got him out of trouble. Ace looked at his expensive gold watch, ' We should be arriving soon. We're gonna have to walk up the mountain since we don't have a car, and there are no taxi's in the mountains. We're probably just gonna have to go through Grey Terminal.'

"Luffy, where are Dadan and the old man buried?" Luffy shrugged,"Somewhere in the mountains? The rest of the crew still occupy the house so they'll be able to tell us where they buried them." Ace took off his watch and took out his wallet,'Money is useless, you'll just get yourself mugged. We'll probably just have to hunt for meat again.' Luffy stuck a bread roll in his mouth and pushed all his broccoli to the edge of his plate.

"Why don't you eat your broccoli, Luffy?" Luffy looked up at him," Because you said if I eat broccoli I'll never grow stronger and I'll stay a runt for the rest of my life."

"D-did I really?" Luffy nodded and stole Ace's bread roll off his plate. He began buttering it with his butter knife.

"Hey! I was gonna eat that!" Luffy looked at him with the biggest, saddest eyes and best puppy eyes Ace had ever seen.

"Pretty please?" Ace stared into Luffy's puppy dog eyes for a little while. 'Why does he always do that when he knows I can't say no?'

"I-it's not gonna work Luffy. Give me back my roll." Luffy tried again,"Please?" 'Man, why do you have to be so cute Luffy?' "Fine. But, at least give me half of the roll." Luffy excitedly tore the roll in half. He handed the other half to Ace as he stuffed his half in his mouth. "This stuff is so good! I love the bread! Give my compliments to the chef." Ace smiled,"Will do."

All passengers we will be landing in five minutes. I repeat all passengers we will be landing in five minutes.

"I wonder if Sabo knows we're coming." Luffy took a sip of his apple juice and relaxed in his seat. "Man, that lobster was really good. I'm full, which is something I never thought I'd say."

The plane had landed please get your bags. The plane has landed please get your bags. The jet door easily opened while the the crew put the stairs down.

"Let's go Luffy." Luffy quickly stretched his arms out and excitedly got out of his chair. He smiled,'The air here really is a lot better than in Tokyo. The air here is just so, nostalgic.' Ace looked out of the jet's window,'This place really hasn't changed much at all. I wonder if some of the people I used to beat up still live here.' Ace walked down the steps next to Luffy. 'We should arrive at the edge of Grey Terminal in a few minutes, if we run.'

"Do you want to race?" Luffy smiled,"Always!" Luffy took off into a sprint with Ace hot on his tail. Ace laughed,'It's been so long!' They ran into Grey Terminal, leaping over the big pieces of junk that got in their way. Ace jumped over what appeared to be a broken barrel and easily dodged the sharp pieces of rusted iron that stuck out from a broken car hood. Ace stopped for a second and picked up a pipe,'This is just like the one I used to use. Though the other one was a thousand times better this will do.' Luffy had already disappeared from sight,' Luffy still doesn't know that I have some tricks up my sleeve.' Ace ran through the woods on the mountain and turned left when he saw the carved out X he had put on a tree several years ago. He swung from a sturdy vine and let go, dropping to the bottom of the hill. He easily landed on his feet and walked the path he'd secretly made. He started running up a vast, empty field until he arrived at their old tree house. He climbed up the ladder into their old tree house.

'This place is still the same.'

"Oi, who the hell are you?" A blonde with a worn down blue top hat, dirty brown pants and stained white shirt put his pipe on Ace's shoulder. Ace smiled,"Is it r-really you?"

"Sabo! Did Ace beat me?" Luffy jumped up the stairs and hugged Sabo. Luffy sighed,"Why do you always win, Ace?" Ace shrugged,"Just 'cause you're my lil bro, doesn't mean I'll go easy on you in a competition." Ace turned his attention to Sabo,"How's it go'in,Sabo?" Sabo quickly wiped his eyes and walked into the tree house, triggering all the traps they set up together. Sabo struggled underneath the net that flew out at him when he stepped on the wire trap. Ace laughed,"Good to see you to!"
