The truth and decisions are made
Note: If you are reading this there is a M scene below and a warning. You can skip it. I put Warning up for you.
"Boy….I sleep really well! Hahahah"! Luffy yells laughing from the bed next to me. I can't help but smile. I don't bother opening my eyes and getting up just yet. If I do I will have to answer a whole bunch of question and I don't want to. Not yet. I use my haki to keep a eye on everyone. Ace walk over to hit his Otōto and does smacks him across the head.
"What the hell Luffy! You are an idiot for doing something so stupid"! Ace grumble with his arms cross.
"You don't have to hit me….Oh? My hat! My hat? Where my hat? I'm starving. Breakfast! Hey, Breakfast! Where Sachi? Sachi? Where my hat? Where Breakfast"? Oh god Luffy. I can't hold it in as I burst out laughing. I know people are looking at me but I can't help it. It to funny. There go pretending to sleep a bit longer. I sit up and get tackled by my furry nakama.
"Sachi! I am so happy you are ok"! Chopper cries as he dug his furry face into my neck. I open my eyes and hug Chopper back.
"You have a lot of explain missy…But I am really happy you are ok". Nami tackle me into a hug too. I smile as she sat beside me. Chopper sits in my lap as I lean against the bed post.
"Sachi"! Luffy got out of bed and hug me over Chopper.
"Ahh Luffy you are squishing me"! Chopper muffled voice from under him. Luffy moves to sit on the other side of me and kisses me. I kiss back and pull back quickly. Only for Ace to kiss me next and then glare at Luffy. This is going to be a problem.
"So do you remember me know"? Ace sits on in front of me.
"Do you remember anything"? Sanji moves to sit on the other side of my bed and Usopp sits beside Luffy. Where oniichan? On cue he walk through the door and grin at me.
"Finally you are awake. Now explain what the hell was that"? Oniichan sits on Luffy bed beside Vivi. I sigh.
"First off yes I remember everything. And yes Ace I remember the promise. The necklace. Want me to start there"? I watch everyone look at me and Ace is grinning like a mad man.
"Ok so it is true Ace and I were…and still are in love. Years ago oniichan and I travel to an island. We ended up separating and do some circumstances I ended up travelling with Ace. A lot happen between us and when we finally found Oniichan on the island…Ace propose with the necklace. I wasn't ready so I said I still have thing I want to do first. Also being a pirate was fun but I go wherever Zoro-nii go. So Ace said keep the necklace so when I decide to put it on it says to him yes. I took the necklace and we walk around town then the forest. I spotted oniichan and when I turn to introduce him to YOU…Ace was gone…Hey What did happen to you anyway"? I turn to Ace and a blush spread across his face.
"I ahhh hahah fell asleep and ended up in a bush. When I finally woke up it was dark. I ran through the whole town looking or you but at the docks someone said you left". I nod.
"Ya. We did leave right away. It just sort of happen. Some people in town recognize us and we had to book it". Silent fell over and I feel Luffy shuffle beside me. His hand wrap around mine and I squeeze back to calm him down. I mean I love him too…Which is a problem. Our hands are hidden but it defiantly calm him down. Suddenly he freaks out again.
"Where my hat? Where food"? Luffy looks around frantically. I roll my eyes as I look for it too.
"Your hat is over there. A soldier found it for you in front of the palace". Usopp pointed to a far table and with Luffy free hand, he stretch to grab it. He happily put it on and I smile. Thank god Crocodile gone and done with.
"I am happy you got better Luffy-san, Sachi-san". Vivi smile across from us. Ya me too.
"Got well? I have always been well"? Luffy blinks confuse and I giggle.
"You idiot! You were in serious condition! You had a high fever and stuff. Don't think you were ok either Sachi! You were just as bad! Chopper, Vivi, and Ace would not leave either of your side. It was extremely sweet how Ace look out for you Luffy"! Nami bark at us from beside me and I blush up at them.
"Thank you so much for looking out for me. Sorry if I was any trouble". I apologize and I swear everyone roll their eyes. I raise an eyebrow in explanation.
"You're always causing us trouble". Usopp mumble and all I do is smile. I sure can be a handful at times.
"Thanks for looking out for me and my queen"! Luffy grin as he squeeze my hand.
"So how long have we been out for anyway"? I ask. I really don't want to answer any more questions. Luffy scratch his head confused.
"Well it only natural for you to be that way…you two slept for three days". Holly Shit! Three days…Thank god I woke up in the first place.
"Three days? I slept for three whole days"? Luffy frowns at the new info and my stomach growl on cue as everyone looks at me.
"What I miss 15 meals….". I mumble blushing and Luffy nodding beside me.
"Ya I miss 15 too…". Luffy agree beside me and Ace nodding.
"Ya I know how you feel. I miss 8". Ace continue to nod.
"How come you can calculate so quickly when it comes to food..."? Namii demands and I shrug my shoulders.
"Ya you guys count 5 meals a day". Usopp gawks and I nod.
"Yup. 3 meals and two snacks for me". I watch the door open and a…female version of Igarm?
"Did I hear right the captain is up? It seems your strategist is too. It will be dinner time soon so could you wait a bit"?
"Wha…"? Oniichan back up on the bed looking confused. Did I miss something?
"Oh hey! Old-tube hair guy! Your alive"! Luffy ooo as he look at her. I sigh as I look down at Chopper hat. How many times did I say back there he did not die? Forget it. No one listen to me half the time.
"S..So you really were into that"? Oniichan grumble and I look at him confused.
"Oniichan what are you talking about"? I ask and he just mumbles cross dresser. Oh….Ok. Not important.
"No everyone. She Terracotta-san. She Igaram wife and head of the palace service". Nami informs us but I am more interested in what moving towards me. I can't help but drool as a huge cart is fill with fruit that roll on Luffy side of the bed. I forget about Chopper in my lap as I move to the cart. If I don't grab anything Luffy will eat it all. I end up sitting in Luffy lap and grab for an orange.
"Thanks for helping Vivi-san and my husband. I heard you eat a lot. Would you have some fruit to hold yourself off for dinner time"? Oniichan looks away and mumbles something along the line of a husband should not look like his wife. I finish my orange and grab the box full of strawberry. Right on cue luffy uses his free hand and swipes it all in his mouth. I was smart enough to duck. I look between the empty cart and Luffy. Then back again. I look down and my strawberry are the only survivors…for now! Luffy wraps his free hands around my hips while I munch on my sweet fruit. I am a bit sore…my chest is sore but that not a surprise. I did get a hook through there.
"Are you a magician"? Oniichan and Sanji bark at Luffy. I watch Ace roll his eyes as he glares at Luffy.
"Lady! I am going to eat three day worth of food"! Luffy declares and I am not surprise because he would too! I probably will tonight too. I know I am going to eat a lot.
"Looking forward to it! I have been working the past 30 years to serving. I won't lose to a youngsters stomach! So eat to your heart content"! She smiles and leaves. This is my chance to explore a bit! I move from Luffy legs and stretch as I get out of bed.
"I have been coop up way to long. Vivi-chan you don't mind if I explore the palace before dinner do you"? She blinks and smiles.
"Not at all". I mumble a thanks and walk to the door grabbing my sketchbook out of my bag.
"Wait a second! You can't leave yet! We still want answers. Get back here"! Nami yells but I grin as I run to the door.
"I want to explore. Tonight I will answer your questions! See you at dinner"! I yell back as I close the door. I only get a few steps until Luffy and Ace join me.
"I know how easily you get lost so to make sure we make it to dinner on time I am coming with you". Ace grins as he walks beside me. Luffy grabs my free hand with a grin.
"Shishishi! I want an adventure"! Luffy laughs as we walk down the corridor. I don't know how this is possible but after a few turns I actually do loose Luffy and Ace. I scratch my head but whatever. I continue to walk along the corridor humming some random tune with my book in hand. I want a place to draw. I go through a few doors here and there. Nothing special. Hmm….Where to go next? This door looks interesting. It a door with art supplies on it. I open the door to reveal an artist paradise! I aww as I admire the paintings on the wall. I admire the paintings of flowers, different types of fruit, the dancing sand in the wind, and I can't but smile gently of a smiling younger Vivi hugging a baby Karoo.
"What are you doing in here"? I turn to the gruff voice. It an older man with tan skin, soft blue eyes, and cover in paint.
"I'm sorry to intrude but I was admiring the paintings on the wall". The man chuckles as he stands beside me as we look at a painting of the desert with a beautiful sunset. The colors dance around in harmony and I can't help but aww at the delicate brush strokes.
"You have a good eye. Not many people admire my work as much as they should. Youngster these day don't know fine art even if it kicks them in the ass. I see you are an artist as well. May I look at your sketches"? I look down at my art book. I bight my lip not really sure. Why not. I look at the wall of beautiful work. I open a picture of a butterfly on a honeysuckle.
"Ok only one. My work nothing like yours". I show him the work and I watch him closely. His eyes soften as his eyes scan my work.
"I don't know why you are so scared to show me. You have beautiful work. You do an amazing job on the very fine details and your shading superb. Please let me look through your book"! I blush at the accomplishment and notice behind him a tattoo table. Hmm.. I grin.
"Do you do tattoos"? The man grins.
"I sure do! I am the best in all of Alabasta"! He grins and I chuckle as this is perfect.
"Then can you add two to my back? If you do you can look through as many of my pictures as you want! What do you say"? The man nods and puts out his hand. I shake his as there is a sparkle in his eye.
"Deal! My name Bijutsu. Yours"? What a perfect name. Fine art….defiantly perfect name. I remove my dress then my bandages as his back to me getting everything ready.
"My name is Sachi! These are the two I want you to put on me. Now don't be concern if I don't bleed. My devil fruit heals me really quickly. I want this on the base of my neck and this one beside the skull sticking it tongue out". I point to each skull and each part of my body. The man nods as he looks at the picture.
"I have heard a lot about you. You are really famous around here. Also whoever did your last tattoos got really good talent! Shall we begin"? I nod as I close my eyes. I ignore the pain as the needle digs into my flesh. I tell him my colors and I guess I doze off a bit because the man shaking me and telling me where the mirror is. I cover my breast as I look at the mirror and aww at my new two addition.
"They are absolutely…perfect! Thank you so…much". I smile as Bijutsu is loss in my sketches. I look at my old bandages and throw them in the near by trash can. I put on my dress wishing I had a bra. I turn to the older man and he shuts my sketch.
"Your sketches are a work of art…Some of them show such happiness and other such sadness. You have a talent I haven't seen in a long time. It nice to see someone so young with such skills. Thank you". He beams and I blush as I take my book back.
"Thank you…Umm do you know where the dinning room is? I have really bad sense of direction and I am sure it dinner time". The man nods and explains for me in great details on how to get there. I leave the room with a smile. The last picture I see is king Cobra smiling with his wife who holding a baby Vivi. I try to follow the direction but I get even more lost! Why us! Why can't I have normail navigation skills. I somehow end up back at our room. I enter to see no one around. Well at least I can grab my bra. I quickly slip off the white long dress Vivi provided me and put a bra on from my bag. I put my sketchbook away and look at myself in the mirror. I look good for a sweaty person. My hands go over my scar that Crocodile left behind. It rough and looks like I have had it for a while. Like all my other scars this one will vanish after dinner as well. My devil fruit is trully something. I put the dress on and leave the room. My footsteps echo in the empty corridor and it annoying.
"There you are! We have been looking for you everywhere. No one can eat without you". I turn to a guard and see him stand there stiff as a brick.
"Oh thank you. I am lost and I don't know which way to go". The guard nods and I follow behind him. We walk in silence and that annoys me just as much as my steps echoing. The echoing footsteps becomes filled with people talking behind a huge door. Finally I can be surrounded by my nakama.
"We are here". I smile in thanks and let myself in.
"Finally you are here! Lets eat"! Luffy yells as he grabs a meat stick. I eye the food on the table. There so much and it already disappearing with Luffy ninja eating skills. I rush to the nearest chair that free...Luckily it beside oniichan. I look to see Cobra at the end of the table with Luffy on one side. Nami beside Luffy, with Sanji beside her, then Chopper. On Cobra other side is Ace who manners has decided to go out the window as well as he stuffs meat in his mouth, Karoo, Usopp who guarding his fish, oniichan, then myself. I look around and my eyebrow twitches as lots of stuff on the table I am allergic too. Shit. Oniichan gives me a cup filled with booze and a plate filled with steak and potato.
"I have been protecting this from our rubber captain. Eat"! Oniichan barks and I grin.
"Thanks oniichan"! I eat quickly as I watch sticky finger steals everyone food.
"Luffy you just stole my ribs"! Ace barks as he go to steal them back. I finish my plate and add them to a empty pile. What to eat next. Cant have the shrimp, crab, lobster, or clams dishes. There just regular fish. I dive for it quickly and remove the bones. I eat away as I watch oniichan cut a piece of meat.
"Eat quickly before it gone"! Oniichan right but because he talk he is to slow. I put my plate away and look around but I can't eat anything. More dishes come out and I grab something that I can eat. Spaghetti! I eat away and sense Luffy finger come for my meatball. I stab my knife in front of his fingers as I glare at him.
"Luffy-kun I can't eat a lot of this food. You better not be thinking of eating my only edible food are you"? I say sweetly and I grin as Luffy shakes his head no. He pulls his hand away and I go back to eating other people food. That threat will not last long.
"Ahhh he dead"! One of the guards at the end of the table screams and I look over as I finish off my plate at a sleeping Ace in his face of something full of sauce. I watch Luffy take his chance and steals what Ace is eating while laughing. Ace wakes up with sauce all over his face.
"He alive"? The guards wonder and I throw a napkin at Ace face.
"Wipe it off sleepy head"! I yell over laughing. I drink my cup dry and enjoy the warm feeling that fills me. Ok desert time! I look around and twitch as I can't tell what is edible.
"Hey can someone tell me which deserts don't have cherries or banana in them. I don't want to keel over again over here"! Oniichan glares at me and I just shrug my shoulders. A chief comes over and grabs a bunch of plates from the table and puts them in front of me.
"These are all cherry and banana free! Enjoy". I nod as I admire the cakes and brownies only for a second. I waste no time digging in. I hear a guard gag behind me as I finish off my first cake.
"Hey Luffy! You just took my food off my plate"! Usopp yells as his foot slams on the table. I watch as Luffy just sticks whatever Usopp dinner into his mouth. I giggle as Luffy disagrees.
"Don't spit the food"! Nami shrieks as she punches Luffy in the cheek. I watch Chopper scaring noodles down like it the last thing he will ever eat.
"Oh, Oh if you eat like that , you'll…". Sanji warning Chopper as Vivi places a rice dish in front of them…When did she get there? Whatever. I am now on my third cake and cut a piece of for oniichan. It his favorite! It has all the fruit he likes on it and since he won our last drinking contest this is my reward to him! I place the plate beside him. He looks down at it with want. He glances at Sanji who is to busy watching Chopper. He grins as he eats the cake slice quickly with happiness. He licks the cream off and mouths thank you. I glow as I finish off the rest of the cake.
"Well then, wait and see , Luffy! As I put my tobacco star on this"! Usopp yells evilly as he puts Tabasco over his huge rice ball. Luffy steals it and breaths fire at the spicy taste.
"Nice one Usopp"! Ace yells with a lobster tail hanging out of his mouth. I laugh as I push the empty cake plate away and grab the pie and tube of vanilla ice cream. I look at the tub then the pie. You are mine! I grab my spoon and dig out the ice cream and smear it all over the pie.
"Delicious"! Nami smiles as she eats whatever she is eating.
"Luffy talk to him when your done eating"! Ace scolds and Luffy starts to eat faster with his arms flying everywhere.
"Can I have another mug over here"? Oniichan waves his mug and with my one free hand I do the same. Mine refill and I drink half of it down right away.
"Hey we need some water over here"! Sanji orders as Chopper banging his hoof against the table trying to swallow his to big of a mouth full. I finish my pie and crumble chocolate cookies in the reaming vanilla ice cream tube. I eat away happily and watch Luffy stomach grow to the size of a balloon. I finish off my drink and I am stuff. I close my eyes and look at the reaming damage. My lung and muscle around it still pretty badly hurt but someone did an ok job sowing me up. It defiantly not Chopper work. I heal it up and clean up my skin so not even a scar remains. My blood supply awesome and my minor muscle problems are cured. I am back to being healthy... once again. I grin as I open my eyes. I clap and burst out laughing as Luffy rolls around the table and Usopp balancing plates with his long nose. That talent. I can't help it and laugh louder as chopper puts chopsticks up his nose and dance around. Everyone joins in as the party continue on.
"Ok we need some music! Everyone clap to this beat for me"! I get on top of the table and start a fast beat. My hips swing to the clapping as I move to Vivi.
"Tomorrow's way too far away, And we can't get back yesterday but we young right now!We got right now, So get up right now Cause all we got is right now"! As I sing I pull her up and make her dance. She blushes and laughs as she sorta dances. Nami gets up without me even needing to pull her up. She joins beside Vivi.
"Tomorrow's way too far away and we can't get back yesterday but we young right now! We got right now, so get up right now, Cause all we got is right now. Baby tonight I need you, and I feel it when I see you! Wherever you wanna go whenever baby I'm yours"! Sanji jumps on the table and as I start singing the next verse. He grabs my hands and I think we start to do the fast version of slow dancing. He twirls me out and I grin as I grab Vivi to switch places. I watch as her blush deepens as she twirls into Sanji chest. For a second Sanji eyes show sadness but his grin differently at Vivi. I continue to sway to the beat.
"Tomorrow's way too far away, And we can't get back yesterday but we young right now! We got right now, So get up right now Cause all we got is right now! Tomorrow's way too far away, And we can't get back yesterday but we young right now! We got right now, So get up right now Cause all we got is right now"! This dress is way to long to dance in. I grin as I rip the side and let my leg out. That better! Luffy stomach magically back to normal size and he holds nothing back to hold me closer to him. His hands grab my hips and I let my hands go behind his head. I can hear oniichan laughing with Chopper. That a good sign!
"So close I can taste you, Ain't scared I can take you! Can't fight the feeling! Can you feel me? You got me feel it"! I sing as Luffy and I dance together. Our body move in sink and people around us vanish. I swear my stomach flips as he looks at me with so much love. My hands trail his scare under his eye as he dips me back. He kisses me tenderly and brings me back up. As I stand on my feet Ace steels me away from him and has no problem getting into the beat.
"Something you wanted to do all your life. There's no more waiting ‒ tonight is the night! And we can't be wrong, not if it feels this right! Turn it up, scream it loud, yeah"! Our bodies dance together and Ace eyes never leave mine. They are so hypnotic and I can see the want. It would be so wrong if I look away. He grabs my hips and lifts me off my feet. I put my hands on his shoulders and my thighs squeeze his hips so I won't fall as he twirls me. His hands are warm and my heart beat pulses through my body. After I finish my sentience he drops me to my feet and our lips collide. I can feel the fire between us and the fire between my thighs. It hot and needy. I pull away panting. Luffy kiss are fill with tender love and Ace is fill with fiery want. Two different confusing feelings.
"Tomorrow's way too far away, And we can't get back yesterday but we young right now! We got right now So get up right now 'Cause all we got is right now! Tomorrow's way too far away and we can't get back yesterday! But we young right now, We got right now, So get up right now!'Cause all we got is right now"! I don't know how I finish but I do and strong to! Oniichan dances the last verse with me as he glares at the two brothers. He protects me from them as I catch my breath. When I finish the room claps and I finally realize there a lot of people watching. I jump off the table with a blush and Nami quickly grabs my hand. She runs out of the dinning room with giggles and I fallow with my own laughter. Vivi laughing with us.
"God all that dancing and I need a bath"! Nami says happily and I nod.
"I know"! I say beside her. My body a ranging mix of bad hormones. Nami giggles as she looks at me.
"What"? I ask in question.
"Nothing"! She sings and I look at Vivi for answers but she just blushes madly. I shrug my shoulder as Vivi leads the way. I aww at the craftsmanship of this breathtaking bathroom. Golden dragons have hot water filling the bath as steam rises. There marble walls and I admire the angels on the wall.
"Beautiful"! I mumble as Vivi giggles beside me. We change quickly and I am happy I change into pants and turtleneck that sleeveless. I remove Ace necklace and smile at the dancing flames. Don't want the water to brake it. I cover myself with a towel as Vivi washes Nami back. I wait my turn.
"This feels good! I wonder if there a ship with a bath like this…"? Nami awws as she looks around.
"I'm sure there is on the vast sea. We saw giants…We saw dinosaurs… We also saw cherries bloom in winter time… There're are more things in the sea then we can imagine"! Vivi continue to wash her back as I sense the boy on the other side of the wall. I smile as Chopper hums my song I sang at dinner. So the baths are connected…Wow. I blink as all the boys are hanging on the wall except oniichan who I sense is glaring at them all.
"Those idiots…"! Nami mumbles as I watch her get up with the towel covering herself. Hmmm…I blush as I think this is the best time to show off my two new tattoos. Oniichan will have to see later. I walk up beside Nami as I hold the towel closer to me.
"It'll be 100, 000 berri per person, ok"? Namii says beside me.
"Wait Nami-chan I will go first. Ok so this is 50,000 berre each since I am only showing my back". I turn around.
"Wait. Imouto what do you think you are doing"? Oniichan barks as I sense him on the wall now! I turn up my head at the boys and lower my towel to just cover my naked ass. I do my best to cover the side of my breast too.
"Is that…". Chopper mumbles as he looks at his pirate mark.
"It sure is. You are at my neck because you will always heal our body. You are our spine that keeps us standing healthy and strong". Chopper starts to cry tears of joy. His is the skull with his pink hat on top. I added the white X and his antlers on the side. His crossbones are more behind the skull. I added a few cherry blossom petals so he remembers where his home once was.
"Ohh Vivi-chan symbol adorable"! Sanji coo and Vivi looks confused.
"My what.."? Vivi ask.
"Happiness punch"! Nami yells while opening her towel and I turn my back to Vivi forgetting my towel only protecting my bottom. I suddenly relies I am looking up at the guys and my face go cherry red. Oniichan gone and forgetting I am holding my towel I use my arms to cover my chest dropping my towel. Oh crap. I watch everyone but Chopper get a nose bleed and fall to the man bathroom floor.
"Nami-chan! Sachi-chan"!Vivi cries as Nami beams proudly while I grab my towel to cover up again. My face is I am sure a cherry tomato. I can sense oniichan angry ora from here.
"I didn't do it on purpose"! I yell and sit down pouting. Me yelling makes it worse for the guys on the other side I am sure.
"You have a hot body! You shouldn't cover up so much and the boys already have seen you naked before". Nami right…
"You know what! You are right. Why can they see me naked and I cant see them at least it"! I get up and get to the wall.
"Sachi-chan what are you doing"? Vivi ask nervously.
"I am going to admire our crew family jewels. Lets see how good they really are! You in"? Nami grins as she shakes her head.
"Nope. I want my money. Also I had no idea you had such a purvey side Sachi-chan"! Nami giggle. I jump up and grab the wall. I hang for a second contemplating if I should still do this…Aww fuck it! I pull myself up and blush. Wow… I admire everyone built and interesting package. I like what I am seeing. Especially the two special men who are fighting for my heart. I whistle and keep my eyes far away from oniichan. Don't need to see that!
"I have to say our crew pretty smoking"! I yell and all the guys turn towards me. Behind my Nami laughing her ass off and Vivi getting a better view of her symbol. I watch one by one the men blush. Usopp cover up with a towel while Luffy and Ace don't give a shit. Sanji nose is bleeding profoundly while Chopper really confuse with what going on. Cobra has a towel and his back is towards me.
"Like what you see? Because all of this is yours"! Ace grins as he turns his back towards me and smakes his ass. Luffy beams at me and waves not really getting it. I on the other hand grin and look back at Nami and Vivi.
"Lady's this may be the only time you get to see them in their true form. I swear their asses are fine. Join me in admiring their sculpted body"? I ask once more and Nami continue to laugh. Vivi stays silent as she is now playing with her feet.
"Oh my god. I wish I did not hear that just come out of my imouto mouth. Also get the fuck off the wall…before you fall" Oniichan yells at me from somewhere and I jump down getting one last look at their fine assess. I walk over to let Vivi wash my back.
"Oh that was amazing Sachi-chan". Nami wipes her tears away as Vivi washes my back.
"Umm…What does my mark mean if you don't mind me asking"? Vivi ask quietly. Her symbol the skull with a yellow crown with a blue ponytail like down the right side. She has no cross bones. I will add them if she joins us.
"Your symbol below and beside Nami because I know you will always be there for us no matter how far you are from us. Wether you choose to join us or not you are my Nakama that I will come to if you ever need me. I will add the cross bones if you join are crew. If you don't I don't add them. It not that big of a deal but it just so there a little part of you travelling with us always". Vivi nods and rubs her eyes with a smile.
"Thank you". I beam as I go sit in the hot liquid.
"Ahhh this feels amazing. Coming in ladies". I beam. I can already feel my energy leave me but feels so nice.
"You can't make up your mind, can you"? Nami ask beside me as she looks at Vivi.
"What"? Vivi turns to us and I sink deeper into the bath.
"I am thinking we will leave tonight. It because we no longer have a reason for staying here, right? The navy probably at the harbor ready to capture us. Our ship will be probably in danger too". I nod. Nami right…I hope Merry ok. I sense the king bows and I aww as he not suppose to be doing such things to a pirate.
"A naked king only shows his authority with his cloths on. I'd like to thank you to the bottom of my heart as a father and as a resident of this land. Thank you very much". I grin as Nami and Vivi leave the water.
"Coming"? Vivi ask and I smile warmly.
Warning! Read if you are mature enough for the next part!
"I want to stay a little longer. See you when I am done". The girls leave. I hum to myself as the boys leave but like myself Luffy stays behind. We don't say anything but I sense him get up then a splash. Oh shit. I get up and wrap a towel around myself.
"Luffy you ok"? I yell over the wall but all I hear is a grown. I don't wait as I get out and jump over the wall. My eyes widen as Luffy panting with half his body hanging out of the water. He must have stay in too long and is over heated. I rush over and lift him out of the water. I let my eyes turn red and check for any more damage inside. Everything fine other then over heating and a bit dehydrated from the bath. I place him down and fill a free pail with cold water. I watch as he comes back to life when the water hits his chest.
"Ahh sachi-chan that cold"! I roll my eyes as I give him the pail re-filled with water.
"Then don't be stupid and have me worried. Now drink...you will feel better". He waits no time in doing what he told. He puts the pail down and smiles in relief.
"That better. How come your eyes turn red? They were really pretty"! I blush as I show him again. I recheck and Luffy back to perfection. I can hear him aww and I blink back to normal. His eyes still don't leave my now green ones.
"Breathtaking". Luffy mumble and I am lost in his dark eyes. I don't know why but I am so drawn into them that I don't mind getting lost for eternity. Luffy lips fall on mine and it feels like a continuum of earlier kiss. It sweet and it makes my heart jump. So soft and I let my arms go through his wet hair. Luffy pulls away for a second so we can breath but I don't want him to pull away. For a second the pain of his death runs through my mind and I kiss him back hard. The kiss washes the pain away but adds my hold up tears that fall. Luffy pulls away and wipes them away.
"Sachi pleas don't cry. I'm sorry...am I hurting"? As I look into his deep eyes they sweep away the remaining pain. I nod as I go back to kiss him.
"Pleas. Don't die on me again". I whisper and I watch as he nods. Another tear falls and he kisses it away. He grins at me.
"Salty. So salty yet so sweet". I hum as Luffy wraps his arms around me and kisses me. I don't hold back as our tongue collide. I don't want this to end. Luffy hand move up and pulls the towel away. It falls down onto the floor and our skin touches. Luffy pushes me to the floor and he over me. My sweet man. I can feel our heart beat together as he kisses me so softly like I could brake any moment. I moan into his soft mouth as his hands caress my skin like as if he handling soft silk. My hand feel every muscle he has as my need. The need I have for him grows. I can feel the same for him as it rub along my thighs. He continues to kiss me and I cry into his mouth as he fills me with his love. I know it would hurt but that ok. Sometimes love will hurt but in the end it will fill you with warmth.
"I'm sorry. I can..". Luffy looks down fearfully unsure if what he did was right. I ignore the pain as I kiss him. His kisses seem to always take my pain away.
"Shut up and kiss me". I breath and this washes his fear away. We dance like the rising steam, our moans are the music that sets the slow beat. Our hips collide and my body rises with need for him. We continue to love each other with tender kisses and touches.
"Sachi I can't...". Luffy moans. I am so close and so much I want to come with him. I groan as our dance moves faster.
"It ok. Luffy let go". With that said I know our body pulse together as waves of emotion washes over us. We kiss hard and we stop to enjoy the warmth that engulfs us. Luffy pulls out and there a bit blood between our thighs.
"Sachi are you hurt"? Luffy look over my body and I quickly kiss him.
End of mature paragraph.
"No. This happen when it a women first. This is normal. Lets clean up and go back. We don't want the other to come get us. Do you mind if we keep this a secret from the others. Just for now..ok"? Luffy grins and kisses me.
"Ok. I can keep it a secret. Wait for me in the hall. I don't want you getting lost". I nod and I grab my towel. My hip hurt a bit but I take the pain away with my devil fruit and I walk back to normal. I look back at Luffy sweetly as I jump back over the wall. I cant stop smiling as I wipe the blood away. I go to my cloths and stop as I look at Ace flame. My happiness gone as I watch the flame dance when the light hits it just right. I can't wear this anymore. I... love him but I love Luffy more. I let myself morn for the lost love before I go back. I have to give it back. I quickly get dress and place the necklace in my pocket. the turtle neck can look like I am still wearing it. I leave the bathroom and Luffy waiting for me. His smile drops as he sees my tear stain face. Before he says anything I place my finger on his lips.
"Don't. Just lets go back". I say as I start to walk down the corridor. I feel Luffy warm hands and gently pulls me as he pulls me in the proper direction. We don't say anything and I welcome our echoing foot steps. I breath deeply and wipe my cheeks.
"You go in first. I will wait out here for a few minutes and go in". Luffy nods unsure but I move away from the door and he enters. I hear their relief as he enters. I play with the flame in my pocket as I feel Ace on the other side of the door. After a while I enter and place a fake smile on. The only one who don't believe it is Luffy and oniichan. He looks at me with wide eyes. I plead him with my eyes to say nothing. I sit next to him and he strokes my back saying nothing. It calms me down and I give him a broken smile. Nami looks at me with worry but then crosses her arms.
"No more running away Sachi! We all have question. We want answers"! Nami points at me. I nod. I just want to get this over with. I want to set sail and start a new chapter.
"Ask away". I say quietly as I let my fingers go through my short whet hair.
"Ok tell us about that place we all ended up? That place was scary"? Usopp shivers and Vivi look at us confused.
"What place"? Vivi ask and I smile at her.
"It was a good thing you didn't go. It pretty bad. I was born cursed and the only way I can go there is if I pass out…If someone pass out they can be there with me. Luffy save me a few times". Everyone stays silent then looks at Luffy.
"You have been to that creepy place"? Usopp ask and Luffy nods.
"Ya the mystery hands always try to take Sachi-chan away from me". Luffy arms are cross and he nodding his head.
"Why didn't you ever tell me"? Oniichan ask and I look at him.
"Well it only happen once before we met Luffy-kun… and you kept thinking it was a nightmare. I thought at first it was until it what stole my memories". Oniichan hands become fist and stop rubbing soothing circles around my back. I wish he would continue.
"What"?! Everyone else yells.
"That the reason you lost your memory? How is that possible"? Nami ask and I frown.
"Well way back at Sanji restaurant remember that big wave that crash against the ship. I trip down the stairs and hit my head. I went back but since I was the only one there…No one help me and the other me stole all my memory's. Those screams you heard off me were my memories taken away from me…I think". Everyone nodded in understanding as I wait for the next question.
"What happen after I disappeared? I saw you run at the darker you then I woke up in here". Ace ask as he grabs a seat next to me. I tense and the weight in my pocket grows.
"I fought the other me and won. They lost…See when I was curse that side of me that I was supposed to grow up and learn to live with grew apart from me. It grew into my darker fear and anger. It goal was to take over my body. The only way for me to win is to accept it…I did and once I won I absorbed that part of me and push her deep inside. I have control. Watch". I blink and pull just enough out to make my eyes black. Everyone gawks and then either shiver as they look at my eyes or look away. The only people who don't are Luffy, Ace, Oniichan and Sanji.
"I feel no blood lust. For some reason though when I am in this state I become stronger in every way. The more I use this part of me the stronger I become but the more blood lust to. So I want to learn control. I will learn control. You guys don't mind helping me do you"? I let my eyes turn back to my pretty green and oniichan grins.
"Of course. I can't wait to test to see how far you can go". I let a happy smile grace my face but I know that my eyes still show such sorrow.
"Any more questions"? I ask.
"How do you know all this? How do you know that you were curse"? Chopper ask as he look at me worriedly. He can see my pain but he keeps quite probably because he is unsure if I am hurt or not.
"When I absorb that side of me I just gain all that knowledge". I look around and no one looks like they have anymore question.
"Sachi-chan I think you have answer everything that we need. On a very important note I believe we should leave tonight". Nami arms are cross which pretty much mean it not really up for debate. Ace beside me moves to put his arm behind me and I internally flinch. Ace is smiling and I am the one who going to brake it.
"Tonight"? Usopp re-ask to clarify and Nami nods her head.
"Really"? Chopper frowns as he plays with the blanket under him
"We'll I think it appropriate, too". I start and I can see oniichan going to finish for me.
"Since we no longer have a reason to stay here". Oniichan nods and smile. I'm worried about Merry. I hope she ok.
"Yeah…I am also worried about the navy action… ". Sanji finishes.
"Ok….Luffy this is your choice". Usopp ask and all eyes turn to our captain.
"Yoush! We are going to stay for a couple more Alabasta dishes"! Luffy always thinking about his stomach. Ace rolls his eyes behind me as Nami bonks his head.
"We are leaving tonight"! Oniichan orders and Luffy nods. Hmmm….What Ace going to do? For a second the thought of Ace leaving makes my stomach flip like when he first wanted t leave or when Luffy was taken by Crocodile…If he leaves something bad will happen to him. I can't lose him too… but he probably will not want to sail with us once I give his necklace back.
"So Ace-kun what are you going to do"? I ask not daring to look at him because I may break here if I do.
"Well my striker with your ship and you my dear future wife still owe me a date! Since my lead to Black beard gone stale I will travel with you guys until I find some info that leads me to him. You don't mind do you Lu"? Ace grins at his otōto. Luffy beams.
"Of course you can join us! Shishishi but I am still captain and Sachi my pirate queen"! Luffy glares at Ace.
"She not your queen yet! From what I can tell you are loosing". Ace sticks out his toung like a child and Luffy opens his mouth but I look at him and he closes it. Thank god he didn't say anything. I realize my rings and hair Rose piece are gone. I only have my earrings on.
"Anybody see my rings or hair piece"? I get up from bed looking around for Usopp hard work. I don't want to lose such incredible weapons since I am already loosing something today.
"Don't worry Sachi-chan. I have them right here! I fix them up so they are all good and new"! Usopp grins as he pulls them out of his bag.
"Thank you so much"! I look down at the them and they really do look like the first day I got them. I place them in their proper place missing Ace, Luffy, and Oniichan glare at Usopp. I did see Usopp shiver.
"Usopp you ok"? I ask and he just nods.
"Yeah! Everything fine". His voice breaks which means he scared. I turn around only to see smiling faces. I raise an eyebrow in their direction and oniichan gives me the what look. My eyes dart to Usopp then squint. Did you do something to him. Oniichan just yawns and shrugs his shoulder. Which pretty much saying nothing happen and I have no clue what you are talking about. I sigh as I walk over and flop on the closes bed that has no one on it. The fabric soft beneath me. I close my eyes as a man walks in with a snail. I reopen to see a big transponder snail on a platter.
"There a call from a guy called Bon-chan who would like to speak to you". The guy says and Sanji humm in thought.
"Bon-chan? Never heard of him". Sanji informs the guy and Usopp nods.
"We don't have anyone name bon-chan". Usopp adds and I scratch my head.
"Guys it the creepy ballerina that can change into us with his hands". I groan. Just one more pain in the ass to deal with.
"What"?! Sanji picks up the receiver as I sit up.
"Hello? Hellloooo? It me…"! Sanji quickly hangs up in disgust. He so annoying. I rub my forehead only for soft hands to message my head. I look up and Luffy doing just that.
"Shishishi. Your head better"? Luffy ask quietly and I nod with a smile enjoying the pain disappearing with each of his rubbery fingers. More like magic fingers. The Snail rings again.
"What? Shut up"! Sanji yells at the poor snail who looks like he being up ducted by some unknown force. Luffy frowns as he stops messaging my head. He uses both his hands to grab the snail and bring it over to him.
"Hey, it you huh? What do you want from us"? Luffy ask actually taking this serious for once.
"Oh? That voice must be straw hat-chan, right? You're so strong! I am really surprised! Oh yeah…Don't call me Mr.2! If this signal caught by the navy, I'll be in trouble". Idiot.
"He just told us". Chopper aww probably at his stupidity to.
"Just tell us what you want already". Oniichan and I order at him together. I don't want to deal with this.
"Oh yeah…I took your ship". I let his words sink in then I blew a gasket.
"What did you say you prick? If you fucking hurt Merry I am going to gut you alive"! I scream into the snail that started to sweat a bit.
"You son of a bitch! This isn't a joking matter! Where are you right now"? Usopp orders angrily beside me. He knows Merry has a soul but not the whole issue. I guess he should though. I will have to tell him when I have night watch.
"On your ship. No,No…Geese! We're friends right"? I twitch as the snail grinning like a lunatic. It sorta creepy.
"Just tell us where you are"! I yell and the snail grins up at me.
"I am at the upper reaches of the Sandora river! See you there"! The snail go to snoozing and Luffy places the receiver on the snail. The room go silent. I get up and check through my bag to make sure everything inside. Yup sure is and someone put my favorite sweets in their too. That makes me feel a bit better.
"Can we trust him"? Sanji ask from behind me. I sling my bag over my sholder.
"We don't have a choice plus Luffy-kun you were friends with him at one point right"? I ask as I walk to look out the window. My haki can't go that far. Dam I can't even check if it's lie or not.
"We were friends at one point but..". Luffy hands are on his knees looking away annoyed.
"In your case, you may be able to make friends with him again, which is scary…". Oniichan has a point. I open the window and the cool evening breeze smells like the desert. I am so done with this place.
"We have no choice". Chopper says as he looks at me. Agreeing with what I said earlier.
"He right. If he has our ship and tries to trick us we will take it back". I nod with Sanji.
"Ok grab your crap quickly and let's get the hell out of here! Chop Chop"! I order and everyone up and moving grabbing their stuff.
"Say, mina…what…What should I do"? Vivi looks down and I walk over already having the plan in place. I bend down to her level and look into her sad eyes.
"Vivi…Listen to me. This is your choice. If you choose to come with us you can never return here. You will become a refuge and hunted by the navy. It a big choice…I want you to understand something though. Whatever you choose we will always remember you and we will always come back to help you if you ever need help. For you are our nakama threw and threw. Whatever you choose we will always care for you. We will give you 12 hours to decide. We will take our ship back and at noon we will be at the Eastern shore. There is where you will join us if you choose or stay here. Whatever you choose remember you will always be a straw hat in our books! Right guys"? I look back and every nods and agree to my plan. I look back and Vivi nods.
"Use my ducks to get to your ship. It the fastest way". Vivi smiles up at us. I give her a see you latter hug and she holds me tightly. Nami joins us as we say our goodbyes. I grab Ace hand as one by one they left through the window.
"Ace...When we get to the ship we have to talk". Ace looks confuse but nods. We quickly go out the window and the ducks are there waiting for us.
"I call my ducky"! I rush to my Ace/Luffy mix duck and hug him quickly. Seeing him makes me feel better. I help pack up the ducks and we are off. We are all on the same ducks as before but now Luffy has his own and munching on a stick of meat. Ace is behind me keeping me warm from the cold night. I enjoy this as this is our last moment probably together.
"Ahh this is nice"! Oniichan relaxes on his duck. Only because you can handle the cold. I mumble under my breath and Ace snickers from behind me. He shuffles closer and I lean away. His back feels like it burning me even though he not that hot.
"So this is finally farewell to the sand Kingdome..". Usopp cries and I roll my eyes.
"I am done with all the sand. I don't want to see a desert for a long time if you ask me". I grumble and I eye Luffy who eating meat.
"The Alabasta dishes are great! Sanji make them for us some time…". Luffy orders munching away.
"Yeah, I was interested too so I got some from Terracotta-san. Some spices too"! I love the sound of that!
"Sanji-kun can you teach me to cook some of those dishes when I get a bit better at cooking"? I yell over to him and I watch as he literally glows in my direction. I watch Ace tighten on the rails he is holding. I can probably cook some of this sadness away.
"Of course imouto! I would happily teach you to cook"! Oniichan twitches as Sanji declares. This will never get old. I can see the way oniichan hands grab his katana wanting so badly to attack Sanji.
"Nami are you feeling sick"? Chopper ask from his duck. I look over and she looking down with a far sad off look.
"Nami-san are you thinking of Vivi-chan…? I understand how you are feeling…but thinking doesn't get you anywhere". Sanji right. Nami looks up and sighs.
"I… I am willing to give up for Vivi-chan….On the 1 million berries"! Really.
"Of course you should"! Everyone yells and Usopp falls off his duck in shock. I cut my hand and create a lasso and throw before he gets to far and I miss. I smile as it wraps around his body and I pull on him a bit to hard. He go flying into the air crying. Oh crap. I concentrate as I control my blood to put him on his duck. Few!
"Thanks Sachi"! Usopp continues to cry as his arms shake and grab his rails.
"Sorry Usopp-kun. Didn't mean to be so forceful. Are you ok"? I ask and he nods. Few. We finally get to our ship and I notice nothing wrong with her. My inners twist as I get off.
"I have been waiting for you guys. Long-time no see". I look up and I feel the twitch coming back. He still the same as the last time I saw him. Creepy the only thing I can think of at this moment.
"Oh, We're here". Oniichan get off his duck.
"Thanks for everything". Sanji grabs his bag in thanks.
"I'm going to miss you"! I cry as I hug my duck one last time. They run off to go home.
"I'm going to miss you guys so much but we will meet again. Wait what"? Why is swan guy crying? I shrug my shoulders as I grab a few things to carry to our boat.
"What"? Sanji ask and that just pisses off creepy up there.
"That not how you should treat your friends, right"? He puffs and I just start to walk up the plank.
"What do you mean friends? We are enemies! You lied to us"! Luffy declares and I put the stuff down on the deck. I look around to spot Merry and there she is! I rush up the stairs to the figure head and jump on. She hugs me as soon as she spots me.
"I didn't lie! I didn't know it either! But you see…who cares about it anymore? Baroque work fell and we are no longer enemies…". His voice is annoying and it almost sounds like he is using us.
"I am so happy you are back. Baaa I was so worried about you guys! Did you win"? Merry ask up at me all cutesy and I can't help but hug her closer.
"We sure did…The weirdo over their didn't hurt you did he"? I ask and she shakes her head.
"No he saved me from the marines taking me away before I could help you guys get out of here". I guess I owe him a thank you.
"Sachi you're soul hurting...What happen"? Merry ask and I jump off ignoring her.
"Watch and find out". Merry looks at me like she wants to cry but fly over to check on everyone else. To bad they cant see her.
"Bon-sama thank you very much for protecting our ship from the marines. I owe you greatly. Thank you". I say in a monotone voice as I watch him get up and hugs me. Oh god get him off. I feel myself slowly braking inside.
"You are so welcome"! He jumps around with me in his arms. I sense Oniichan walk up to weirdo pulling out one of his katana.
"You got three seconds to let go of my imouto…". He lets his warning sink in and I catch my breath as he finally lets go and put his arm in defense.
"Calm down! Calm down! I would never take my friend girl away"! He waves his arms around and I hold in a sob. I pass them and walk down the plank.
"Do we have anymore stuff to bring up"? Nami ask and Sanji grins.
(Next part if you want pleas listen to Aaron Richards-in the night while you read)
"Nope. We are good to go"! Sanji beams as he has the last of our stuff. I grab Ace hand and walk a bit away from the ship so no one can hear us. Turns out Ace grab his striker while we were unpacking. Does he know.
"Sachi-chan what wrong"? Ace ask nervously and I take a step back as he reaches out to me. I let my hand for a moment hold the flame. His flame. I look up and I try but can't hold them back. As tears fall I grab his hand places his necklace in it. The part of my heart that he holds breaks when he looks down at it.
"Why? Why my otōto over me"? Ace looks at me with what I was hopping was anger. That easier to deal with. But instead a tear falls down his cheek.
"I love you Ace and you will always have a piece of my love but...Luffy has more. Just know that I will still come to you if you ever need me for anything". I watch Ace puts the necklace around his neck removing the red beads I gave him a long time ago. He gives me the beads.
"If this is your love then I will always have it by me. You will always be my first love and this necklace has captured that part of heart that capture your love for me. When you want your love for me back we can exchange. You can give me back my beads and I can give you back your love". My eyes widen and tears fall faster as he grins.
"I'm not going to give up. Pirates never give up getting their treasure. Lets get back to the ship". Then on cue Nami voice rings in the air.
"Ace! Sachi we have to go! The navy have this whole island block"! Nami screams for us and I get up. I wipe the sand off and rush onto the ship.
I watch as Ace walks up to Luffy and gives him a piece of paper.
"Otōto this paper will one day will help us see each other again. I want to see you at the top"! Luffy takes the paper and looks at it front then back.
"It just paper and I thought you were going to sail with us for a bit". Luffy look up confuse and Ace just smiles.
"You don't want it"? Ace raises his eye brow and shakes his head.
"No I want it". He grins as he mess Luffy hair up. Luffy grins as he go over to Nami.
"Can you sow this into my hat"? Nami sigh but nods and takes his needed stuff. Ace walks up to me and gives me a piece of paper too.
"If Lu can't bring you the happiness and love then this will guide you to me". He gives me the paper and I watch as it moves to Ace direction very slowly. Wow. I will have to put this in my bandanna. I look up at him as he gives me a broken smile. I hope this card leads me to him on a happy occasion only.
To be continue…
