Hey guys! I've decided to update twice again this week, but only for this fic. I know everyone's itching to read Zoro's part on my crossover, but please give until Friday or Saturday to publish it, it's a fairly complicated fight scene. So, the crossover fic will only be getting its weekly update, while this one gets a bi-weekly. The main reason is, is because I really want to finish this up because I've already started writing the serious version of 'Hell's Babyisitting'. So anyways, a lot happens in this chapter, one of Amanda's guardians finally catches up to her, it's explained how Luffy knows her, and it leaves you to anticipate more. So anyways, read, enjoy, review. Thanks!

"So this is how it ends for the bubblehead fatass, huh?" Darius replied, positioning himself to the left, positioning his blade on a slanted curve in front of his face.

"So it would seem." She sighed, she positioned her katana above her head. Several Vice Admirals came at them, and the battle began. The child-assassins took the initiative in the fight, by using their swords to disarm four vice admirals, trying to attack them. By using the back of the blade, they were able to redistribute the weight of the larger and older men, onto their backs. Then they separated and went to both sides of the platform. Several other vice admirals came at Amanda, but with one swipe of her sword, a giant gash of light was sent at them, knocking them down, even incapacitating them. Darius took a more subtle approach to the people on his side, and simply had a bunch of numbers swivel around his Jian, and they scattered as he cut several vice admirals down. Both children jumped to the center of the platform once again, back to back. Amanda turned to Kong. "You really want to start something with us right now?"

"No." He sighed and turned to Jalmack. "I am sorry sir, but for the sake of my men, this ceremony, as well as to make sure a massive bloodshed doesn't break out, I'll have to override your order."

"Y-YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" He yelled.

"I can." Kong replied with his arms crossed. "On this day of the foundation celebration, I am granted special status of the Tenryuubito, and as a temporary world noble, I am hereby eradicating that order. I don't want to dishonor one of the fiercest admiral's in the navy's history, nor insult my predecessor to my position."

"PREDECESSOR?" He yelled. "WHO IN THE HELL WOULD THAT BE?"

"She'll be here soon enough." Kong replied and turned to his admirals and Garp. "Thank you for adhering to my order, I realize it was difficult due to the amount of trouble both these children put you through."

"Eh." Kizaru shrugged. "After what happened, I don't particularly feel like fighting them."

Akainu grunted. "I wanted to see what they could do in battle before I engaged in it myself."

Sengoku was still flabbergasted about what was going on, so Aokiji spoke. "I don't think I would've been able to fight them, sir."

Kong nodded and turned to his ice admiral. "Aokiji-kun. Do you consider either of these children dangerous or threats to the world?" The great commander asked.

"Honestly…" He looked into Amanda's eyes for a moment. At first, he wanted to kill the girl, he had wished for death to fall on him and her many times in the time he had spent with her. But at this moment, when he had the chance to kill her, permission to kill her, he couldn't have brought himself to do it if he had been forced. And he could tell by the look in the gothic girl's eyes, that she wouldn't have fought him either. He didn't know if he could fight alongside her against his fellow admirals but…he couldn't deliver the finishing blow, no matter how many complaints he had about her. He sighed and said, "She's one of the most annoying, random, and headstrong people I've ever encountered on the Grand Line. The fact that she's a slightly experienced warrior at her age is something I actually find sad, kids should be kids, I hated this kid at first. I was going to blame the whole handcuff incident on her, but…when it comes down to it, she's the most reliable combat partner I've ever had in a fight. No matter how dire a situation can get, she'll be there with you until the end. She didn't run when she got free of me on Law's ship, she didn't abandon me with Blackbeard, and she's not abonding me now. So the short answer is no, despite how powerful these two children are, I don't think they're a danger to the world."

"What if they choose to become pirates or revolutionaries?" The lava admiral pointed out.

"Then rest-assured both the pirate world and the revolutionaries would oust them in a matter of minutes." Aokji responded, surprising his stricter comrade. "They'd drive any pirate crew or revolutionary sect to the brink of insanity, so I honestly think they're more of a danger to us if they decided to join the Navy."

"I see." Kong chuckled. "Would you confirm that Garp? You were Ichimaru's confident during his Navy days."

"HAHAHA! Yep! These two would be complete trouble makers, but they'd make fine marines none the less!" The old sea dog laughed.

"Yes…" He turned to the world and raised a hand. "In the Navy's history, there was no greater admiral than Ichimaru Gin. He was strong, fierce, and some would say that he struck down God, himself. About after the time of Roger's execution, or a little before, he resigned, just as he was about to be promoted to my position as Commander-in-Chief. When he was asked why, he said that the Navy was no longer interesting to him, and with Roger gone, he saw no reason to pursue anything further. He was a precise, lazy man who took control of his own life and didn't live by any form of justice than his own. Then there's Otose Ayame, the former Commander-in-chief of the World Government. It was said she lead the great crusade against the tyrant, Bloody Mary. It was a long forty-year battle, but we won out in the end of the struggle. It is these people, and several other great veterans that we celebrate this grand occasion. So without further ado, let's conclude the opening ceremony and carry on with our day!" The crowd cheered.

"THERE WON'T BE ANY CELEBRATION!" A voice from above yelled. Everyone blinked and looked up, and had to sweat-drop, while Kong had made his speech, Saint Jalmack had snuck onto the blimp and was talking into the megaphone. From what they saw, Spandam and the rest of CP9 went with them either out of boredom or they couldn't take the insanity any longer. "I'LL MAKE THE WORLD PAY FOR THEIR INSOLENCE! I'LL GO AND SCALE THE WORLD FOR NEW SLAVES, FRESH FROM THE PIRATE SCUM!" He continued yelling, and the only ones who weren't nervous were the two kids.

"Yari, yari…" Amanda and Darius stiffened at the sound of Japanese sandals and a strict, elder woman's voice approaching them. Everyone turned to stare at the newcomer; she was an elderly woman who appeared to be in her seventies, had a kabukicho hairstyle, dark brown hair, heavy eye shadow, and a plain dark kimono. She puffed a cigarette casually as she walked to the middle of the platforms where the two children were standing. "You two seem to cause trouble wherever you go…Amanda."

The girl flinched and turned to woman. "Yes ma'm?"

"You and Darius take out that obstruction in the sky, I have to teach these admirals a lesson." She puffed her cigarette calmly.

"What am I chopped liver?" Darius griped, but quickly shut it from the look Otose shot him. "Fine, fine…"

"Otose-san…" Kong's eyes were as wide as saucers, as well as Garp's and the rest of the older marines. Tsuru approached her and clasped her hands in hers.

"It's been a long time, old friend." Tsuru nodded with a smile.

"Ah. It has." Otose nodded in acknowledgment, but then turned to her two children. "We'll talk about this when we get home, for now, follow your orders."

"…Do we kill him?" Amanda asked.

"No. Beat him to a bloody pulp and make an example of him for the foundation ceremony, but do not kill him." The old woman replied. "Is that clear?"

"Ah." Both children replied.

"There will be a ship directly below the blimp approximately 500ft ahead, land on it after you've dismantled it." She puffed her cigarette again.

"But what about you?" Amanda asked concerned.

"I'll be fine here, Katherine's waiting for me back at the ship." Otose dismissed. "Go. I'll be fine. Or do you wish to get into even more trouble with me, Manda-chan?" The girl looked to the ground, slightly ashamed. "You run off without telling me or Ichimaru anything, recruit your brother in your shenanigans, and almost get yourself and an admiral killed! I don't have to ask what you were thinking, it was my own fault for worrying you so much…Ichimaru got Tatsuyo's ring back. Now finish this adventure off by destroying that sky-pimple, and go home. I'll meet you back at the shop."

"Hai." She meekly sweat-dropped. She and Darius put up spaces around themselves, and flew up into the air, disappearing from sight. Otose sighed as the cameras followed her charges into the air.

"You raised them well." Otose turned to Garp, who had finally spoken up. "I would've thought that you and Ichimaru would at least have mentioned me."

"Considering their pasts, Ichimaru and I felt it was best that you either weren't mentioned, or you didn't show up. We'd bring it up to them if they ever saw you again, but it hadn't happened until today. Blackbeard had appeared on Jaya, same time as the Strawhat crew incredibly, they just weren't on my side of the island. Blackbeard and his crew ransacked my shop, beat up Katherine, and actually had the nerve to dig up Tatsuyo's grave. They were after his dial-ring, the one that supposedly guides you to your desires." Otose sighed. "I know what you're thinking, you want Manda to follow Luffy or Ace, I assume."

"It would be fitting, Luffy told me over Den Den Mushi he recently remembered his little sister. Ace had his mind on other things, so it's not surprising he doesn't remember her. Then again…Ace and Luffy had only seen her once, and to make things worse…it was the anniversary of their brother's death." Garp sighed at the memory, ignoring Aokiji, who was the only one listening in at that point. The rest of the world was absorbed into the sky-battle.

Flashback

It had been a normal day of training Ace and Luffy, though because of the loss of their brother had happened on this day, one year ago; both refused to train and simply let Garp punch them all day. It was a tense dinner between Garp, Dan Dan and her gang of mountain bandits. It was storming outside, but fighting the rain and lightning would be better than staying around his depressed grandsons.

BANG! Everyone jumped and turned to the door that had been swung open. "GARP!" Garp jumped up, ready to fight, but lowered his fist when he saw who it was. It was a thin, slanted-eye, silver-haired man, who was drenched in rain and sweat and was panting hard. Wherever he came from, he had ran all the way here. Luffy and Ace stood up, as well as Dan Dan and her gang, not sure what to make of this. Ignoring everyone else in the room, the man trudged forward, and that's when Garp noticed it. The sleeping bundle on his back; it was a little girl covered by a cloak, clinging to his old comrade's back. She was breathing harshly, and her face was flushed, and when Garp looked closer, there was blood trailing down the arm Ichimaru was using to hold her up, and it definitely wasn't his. "I need a room now! Get whatever medical supplies this place has! Hurry!"

"Ah!" Garp quickly stole Dan Dan first aid, and went into Dan Dan's room. The mountain bandit was too shocked to even complain.

After a moment of awkward silence, Ace spoke. "…What just happened?" Luffy didn't say anything, his eyes now glued to the door of Dan Dan's room.

"I-I'll tell you what happened." Dan Dan was shaking with fear. "The world's most feared assassin just walked into our door! And they're going to do a live sacrifice in my room! It'll take forever to mop up the blood!" The woman sobbed.

"That's what you're concerned about, you old hag?" Ace exclaimed, but then noticed Luffy get up and head for the door. "Oi Luffy! What are doing? Don't go in there!"

Not listening to his brother, Luffy quietly went in to sneak another look at the child that was brought to Dan Dan's house. Was another kid going to live with them? Hiding behind some crates, he saw his grandfather on one side of Dan Dan's spare futon, and the other man he didn't know on the other side. On the futon, Luffy blinked at what he saw. He saw the tiniest little girl he had ever seen, panting and breathing harshly; similar to him when he had a fever that one time. Luffy crinkled his nose, that was not a fun experience. The girl had a round face and big head despite being so thin, and short brown hair that reached her shoulders. She was asleep and didn't know the stress around her, but Luffy was sure she could feel it. Having never seen or been around a child younger than himself, much less a little girl, Luffy felt a chord strike in him he had never felt before. But that's when Luffy noticed something shiny in the dim light, and he realized the unknown was holding a sword and was going for the girl's arm that was bleeding. Without thinking, Luffy dashed forward and threw himself over the girl stopping the man. "LUFFY!" Garp shouted, Ace ran into the room, with Dan Dan close behind.

"Luffy!" Ace shouted. "What are doing? What going on?"

"They're going to hurt her!" The younger boy shouted.

"Garp-san…what's wrong with her…her arm's…" Dan Dan trailed off, looking at the girl's left arm. It had giant gash in it that was purple, had pus coming out of it, and was only slightly scabbing. It was badly infected, with bacteria extending well into the girl's hand, and from Dan Dan could tell, eventually her lungs. It was a severe case of tetnis.

"I don't know what happened either, but I will get answer about this later." He gave Ichimaru a pointed look, but he looked surprised when Ichimaru didn't even react. He was too busy staring at his youngest grandson, who was protecting the girl's body with his own. "Luffy…everyone…we need to cut off the girl's arm. It's badly infected, and it'll eventually kill her if we don't."

"I won't let you!" Luffy shouted, and suddenly got into a sitting position, and held the girl close to himself. "There's got to be another way! Don't take her arm!" Too many flashbacks about Shanks ran through his mind, and he wasn't going to let that happen to someone else if he could stop it.

"Luffy! If there was another way, we would-"

"Actually, there is another way, Garp-san." Dan Dan spoke up, everyone turned to her. "I've seen this before, and I've had to save my men from this type of tetnis; at this stage, it's possible to save a limb if you implant fresh muscle tissue from another person inside the limb. Since it's not the specific blood or composition, the bacteria will die out, and the limb will be saved as long as it's cleaned properly. But to get tissue to her this fast, they'd have to have their own part of their body cut open and given to her."

"Damn…" Ace muttered, looking at the younger child. He may not have known her, but he certainly didn't wish death on such small kid, especially this young. "How old is she?"

"Two." Ichimaru answered, eyes not leaving Luffy, who was clutching the unconscious toddler tighter and gritting his teeth at them. "What are you planning, boy?"

Ace glared at Ichimaru's tone. "Watch it, his name's Luffy, you-"

"Take mine." Luffy's voice interrupted everyone's thought. "The scar under my eye- reopen it, and take all the tissue you want. If it saves her arm, then do it!"

"OI LUFFY!" Ace exclaimed, going forward, only to be stopped by Garp.

Garp gave Luffy a neutral glance. "Are you sure, Luffy? You don't even know her."

"I don't care! Form this day on, she's mine and Ace's little sister, and I'll protect her!" Luffy declared.

"Lufffy…this doesn't bring back Sabo." Ace reasoned, this was their anniversary for his death after all.

"It's not about Sabo! It's about our little sister! Tell me the name of my little sister!" Luffy demanded, now angry.

"Da…" A voice broke the tension like a hammer. Luffy quickly glanced down at the girl, who seemed to have woken up but was still completely delirious. "Amanda…that's th' name." She slurred, titling her head back into his chest.

Luffy smiled, a small, genuine smile. "I'm Monkey D. Luffy, I'm your new big brother. Over there's Ace, he's our oldest brother, then there's Dan Dan, she takes care of us, and then there's…" Luffy realized he didn't get the mysterious man's name.

"Ichimaru Gin." He replied. "Are you completely serious about the tissue donation? Where your scar's at, it won't exactly be painless."

"I'm sure! Now do it! Save my sister's arm!" Luffy demanded. A second later, Luffy was knocked to the wall, while still keeping his hold on the toddler. He vaguely realized his cheek was bleeding, and Ace and the others were screaming at him, before he completely passed out.

5hrs later

Luffy awoke with a start, and he recognized the room he was in, to be Dadan's room. Frantically, he glanced around for the girl he had been holding, only to see her gone. "Forget it." He glanced up to see Ace with a regretful look. "That Ichimaru-guy took her already, they thought it'd be best before you woke up."

Luffy stared at Ace, and was silent for a moment. "Did I save it…her arm?"

"Yeah, you did." Ace nodded. "Thanks to you, her fever stabilized, and her arm was saved. What were you thinking? We didn't even know her."

"She's our little sister, Ace." Luffy stated again, and put on a determined look. "And some day, I'll find her again."

End Flashback

"I never thought they'd reunite at Enies Lobby the way they did, handcuffed to an admiral no less. Luffy and Ace most likely didn't recognize her because she keeps her scar hidden, and as you said, they only saw her once briefly during their childhood. It makes sense that they don't remember her." Otose puffed. "Luffy-kun's got quite a lot of trouble to go through in recruiting her, she won't leave Darius easily."

"How'd you and Ichimaru come across the little guy, anyways?" Garp asked.

"Perhaps after this battle's over." The old man smiled as the kids landed on the airship. "The final chapter of fun is about to begin."

Review please! I'd say we have about five chapters at max left.
