"You know Law, when you said that I'd be punished for not fulfilling orders I didn't have this in mind." Mizu looked down at herself yet again she was wearing something embarrassing. Thankfully it was only her and Law sat in his offices as there was no way in hell she would ever step foot outside like that. Mizu highly doubted Law would let her either, possessive perverted sadist.

"What did you expect?" Law asked twirling on his chair to face her. A bright red blush appeared on her face as his eyes trailed up her legs. Law grinned as Mizu tried to cover herself up.

"Stop looking at me like that!"

"Like what?" Law asked innocently

Mizu's eyes narrowed, she grabbed Law's discarded hoodie and wrapped it around herself. "Like you're about to jump me."

Law snorted spinning back around and going back to his books. Sighing, Mizu jumped onto the bed kicking her legs out having nothing better to do than watch him work. "Get off the bed."

"Ugh, where am I meant to sit then?"

Law patted his lap without even turning back to her. When Law heard the sound of her feet padding closer he moved to let her sit. Perching on the edge of his legs Mizu shuffled rubbing her knees together in discomfort. A sneaky hand trailed down her exposed thigh, Law smirked as goose pimples rose over her skin. Mizu shivered leaning into Law's heat tightening the arms of his hoodie around her neck. "I really wish I didn't buy this thing."

Law smirked pulling at the strings of her bikini. "I'm glad you did."

"I'm cold Law," Mizu pulled at his shirt snuggling into him "try removing my top and I punch you."

"Oh?"

"Look where my hand is."

Peering down law spotted her hand dangerously high up on his own thigh. "Nicely done, Mizu-ya." Picking her up, Law easily placed her on his desk kissing her.

"Hey Capt-CAPTAIN!" Shachi yelled backing into the door he just ripped open with no consideration.

The two of them had the decency to feel embarrassed, somewhat angry but mostly embarrassed. Law clocked the blush that ran from her head down to her chest before he was smacked. Sighing, Law asked them what they wanted only for Shachi to babble and stutter. Every so often Shachi's eyes would flicker from Law's face but he would flinch before moving back to Law.

Mizu sighed attempting to cover herself more so the poor guy wouldn't burst a blood vessel. "Shachi, please, tell him what's up so you can get out of here."

"Nothing that needs immediate attention, see you guys later. Much later."

The door slammed shut with a loud crack, Mizu turned to Law completely calm. He knew then he was in for an ear full and prepared to listen to the rant she most likely had prepared. "I hope you're happy."

"Pleasingly so."

"You idiot."

The chair scrapped along the floor as Mizu pushed him away from her. Mizu jumped from his lap and flicked him gently on the cheek. Law was tempted to check for a fever, his maid had been too calm since they returned. She didn't even complain about the bikini. It unnerved him. "Would now be a bad time to tell you that you didn't have to be cold?"

Instantly Mizu started to pace backwards and forwards opening and closing her mouth. Glaring at the pirate, she took a breath and apparently no longer cared that she was stood in a bikini. "What?"

"I said you had to wear the bikini not that you had to parade around wearing it."

"LAW YOU EVIL LITTLE-"

"Bad time?" Penguin asked poking his head round the door.

"Leaving. Now. Penguin my room in ten."

"Yes Mizu." Penguin replied instantly backing out of her way. Waiting until Mizu was definitely out of ear shot he asked. "I take it your bikini gamble didn't work."

"Clearly."

Back in her own room Mizu was having such a lovely dream, she was in a deserted island drinking some colourful drink out of a coconut. Then she woke up and was dragged back down to reality where she was surrounded by dirty men. Seriously, they'd reached the last island of safety with no hiccups, then there was the Shachi's revenge plot. That didn't end so well...

"Hey Mizu-chan, where are you?"

"Man, this isn't going to work, she isn't that stupid."

"You'd be surprised." Came the bored tone of their fearless leader from a stool in the corner.

Currently they were sat in an Law's old office, Shachi's waited his hands gripping around the instruments of his revenge. The anticipation was starting to get to him, he was twitchy, starting to sweat and a little on edge. He was one step away from cackling. Penguin sighed for the twentieth time in ten minutes, a personal record, he couldn't believe that Law was okay with the plan. Though he knew Law was trying to puss Mizu's buttons in an attempt to get her incrediably angry. Why Law wanted a scary Mizu was beyond him, not that Penguin truly wanted to know.

"There better not be a perverted reason you're calling me down here." Mizu called as she opened the door.

Dropping from the ceiling and smacking her was two heavy bags of flour, followed by Shachi shouting some nonsense and then two water bombs. "Hahah! Feel my wrath!"

The wet flour clumped together seeping into her clothing and stuck to her skin. Mizu's stood perfectly still, her dripping hair covered her face but it was like a demons aura had been released. "Wrath huh?"

"I told you this was a bad idea." Penguin muttered to Law who had a massive grin on his face. "What is wrong with you people?" He exclaimed asking no one in particular.

"Revenge Mizu for alphabetising my, ahem, magazine collection!"

"Oh boo-hoo." Mizu's head rose slowly so that her own wrath could be appreciated in all its slender. "No tell me, WHO THE HELL IS GOING TO CLEAN THIS UP? BECAUSE IT SURE AS HELL AINT GONNA BE ME!"

"Now now Maid-ya, it is your job."

"Bite me Law-ya, you let this happen therefore it's your fault too."

"I'm the Captain." A response that Mizu really didn't want to hear nor did she appreciate the tone.

"Oh really huh? You're the Captain, wow, I'm so scared. If that's how it's going to be, HOW ABOUT NO TOUCHING FOR 24 HOURS YOU JACKASS! NEXT TIME YOU WANT MY ATTENTION DO SOMETHING NORMAL LIKE TALK TO ME OR SEND FOR ME, OR GO BACK TO YOUR ROOTS AND GRUNT LIKE A DAMN APE!"

It was silent in that room, all that could be heard was Mizu's heavy angry breathing. On the other side of the room, two jaws were dropped and there was an amused expression. Take a guess. "Are you calling me an ape Maid-ya?"

"Perhaps. Whatcha going to do about it?"

"Shachi, Penguin, clean up this mess and it better be spotless or,"

"You lick the decks clean." Mizu glared tapping her soggy foot. "All of them."

"Why do I have to do it?" Penguin asked but he was completely ignored.

"Good work, Mizu-ya."

"Thank you good Captain." She gave him a fake curtsey.

After they had retreated back to their room there was an alarm call. Namely, Marine ship spotted and it's looking right at them. Mizu face planted the floor as Law jumped up and ran off towards the control room. Turned out to be a false alarm, Mizu was furious but decided to get back to work leaving Law sort of frustrated by all the interruptions. When dinner came around Law was positively seething, the gang looked on at him wondering when he'd snap, only Mizu looked mildly amused. After one small comment from Law failed to set her off, she hadn't cleaned his room. Somehow Law lost that argument and was dragged out by the hoodie so she could make him clean up after himself. Yet again, they were interrupted by an announcement, land was in sight.

"Oh for crying out loud!" Mizu yelled kicking the cabinet, stubbing her toe, "Ow! Law your furniture is being mean." All she got in response, weirdly enough was a grunt. Mizu huffed turning to leave to do her last checks before the stupid happened. All that Law knew was one minute she was standing the next minute, there was a thump and she was on the floor. "Law your hoodie tripped me over. Damn, your stuff is really out to get me isn't it?"

"Mizu-ya, your bleeding." Law had the gall to sigh as a small trail of blood trickled down her face.

"Bleeding? Me? Nah." All it took was for her to feel it to collapse. As a doctor, he ordered her bed rest and kept her in overnight.

The next morning she'd been worse but not by much, due to her eye being the size of Law's ego and bump in the head Mizu was wobbly. Add the stubbed toe and limp she acquired from the fall, lead to several dirty minds. Long story short, Mizu yelled at the crew while standing on a table shouting about common decency. Law was not amused but afterwards, Mizu dragged him into her broom cupboard and things got heated. Until Shachi's revenge plot 2 was put into action, this time is was slime and feathers. All in all, things couldn't have gotten worse (for Shachi mostly), until they did.

"Captain!" Shachi shouted as he burst through Law's bedroom door again. There he was met with an unusual sight. Law sat up reading with Mizu draped across his legs nearly drooling into his thigh looking quite contented to do so. Shachi groaned but he had to carry on his report.

"What is it?"

Shachi squeezed his eyes shut down trying to get the image of Mizu out of his head, how she was still asleep amazed him. "Captain, Marines docked just now, doesn't look like a regular patrol ship."

"Send a team out to investigate, they don't give us any problems, I won't give them any."

"But Captain-"

"No buts, if anyone gets injured in an avoidable fight just before we get to Sabaody then it would be a problem."

"Yes Captain, didn't see it that way." The poor freaked out Shachi hesitated shifting from side to side.

Noting the odd behaviour Law nodded to the door, "You can go now."

"Err, Captain?"

"Yes?"

"This going to be, huh, a regular thing?"

Law shrugged flicking a piece of Mizu's hair out of her face. "Could've been worse."

"Ahaha, yeah, yeah you're right. Bye Captain!"

The door shut with a bang as the embarrassed crew mate fled the room. Law waited until he could no longer hear the retreating thuds of Shachi's feet before prodding Mizu's shoulder. "How long will you pretend to be asleep?"

"Just until he left." Mizu sat up and stretched shuffling over to her side, "Sorry about falling asleep on you."

"I expect to be given full compensation." Once again, Mizu didn't like the look of that smirk, things didn't end well for her.

"As in?"

"I get to use you as a pillow."

"Okay."

It wasn't right that the cleaner didn't even react to the demand, she didn't even blink. Feeling just a tad confused Law had to ask, "No complaints?"

"Nah, means I can use you like a fluffy teddy-" the expression on Law's face wasn't a good one so Mizu tried her best to well, save herself. "Oh, a super awesome bad ass teddy that can kick major butt."

"Poor save." The unamused face slid into a blank stare obviously for emphasis.

"Oh shut up." Mizu pouted "Should have seen your face."

"You want an excuse to play with my hair."

"How'd you guess?"

"No comment."

Law went to back to his book leaving Mizu to her thoughts. The latest report made her pause for thought, it was surprising that Law wasn't planning on doing anything. It could've been anyone on board, it could have been George looking for them. Mizu bit her lip, "Aren't you the least bit concerned?"

Glancing over the top of his book Law asked, "The marines? No, we need everyone in good condition, just in case."

"Expecting something to happen?"

Before Law could reply the extremely loud alarms started to erupt from the com system startling the both of them. As they both jumped up Shachi came running through the door again. "Some marine just knocked, I mean seriously, he knocked on our front door."

"Who would do that?"

"Don't know. He's wearing a marine cap can't see his face."

Mizu looked to Law, "Law?"

The man threw his sword to Bepo who had just arrived in the doorway. Law grabbed his up and motioned for them to follow. "Mizu and I will answer, you three hang back. I say again I don't want people wasting their energy before we get to Sabaody."

They all chorused a 'Yes Captain' following him up through the ship. Quietly Mizu followed Law towards the top deck, all the way she thought about who it could be and she kept coming back to George. Fear took over and Mizu instinctively moved closer to Law. Unconsciously, she hid behind him almost reaching out to clutch his hoodie. Her hand stopped as the soft fabric reached her finger tips.

"Mizu-ya, it's not him, your fine."

The cleaner didn't say anything only keeping close to him. They opened their front door, unprepared and it was only them two, somewhere in Mizu's head, alarm bells were ringing. It was like her life defied all logic. What was stood in front of them made Mizu's jaw drop in complete surprise. While Law anticipated a visit from the man in front of them, he didn't know why he was there though he could guess. Inspecting their visitor closer she could see cuts and bruises running all over his body. The man had been beaten to a pulp, Mizu couldn't believe he was still standing.

"Hey guys, mind if I come in?"

Law stepped out of the doorway restricting Mizu's view. "You." He said calmly.

"Casey! Oh my god, what happened? Did the arrogant guy do this?"

Casey gave her a lopsided grin sporting his own split lip. "Yeah, no worries though, kinda deserved it. He didn't tell the Commodore so I'm safe for now."

"Why are you here?" Law asked glaring at semi-conscious man.

Casey tried to grin again but his lip split again causing it to bleed. Hissing, the marine tried to wipe the blood away but was stopped by Mizu grabbing his hand. "You're hands aren't clean."

Law tapped her shoulder which led her to blush and rip her hands from his arm. After hearing about him from both Jasmine and Mizu, Law was not fond of that marine. At all. "I don't like repeating myself."

"Oh, thought I'd say hi."

"Hello. Goodbye." Law began to drag Mizu inside,

"WAIT! Okay, I need help."

"I can see that." Law muttered probably eyeing up his wounds as Mizu was.

Casey sighed shifting the weight from leg to leg, Mizu guessed that there was probably significant bruising if not a fracture. "You're a smart guy Trafalgar Law, take a guess."

"You're crew did this and you want me to go and kill them in revenge."

Casey spat out some blood, thankfully off the side or Mizu would have yelled at him. "Partly right, my crew did do this but I don't want revenge, I just want to be treated."

"What makes you think I'll treat you."

Laughing darkly Casey scratched his head revealing his already bruising and cut arms. "I have information to trade."

"How can I trust that it's good."

"I'm a good guy. Trust me you'll want to know."

"Then tell me."

The marine eyed Mizu then put his attention back to Law. Before replying he wheezed clutching his ribs. "In private if you don't mind."

Even though Mizu didn't know much she knew he was about to fall over. "Law please, he's badly hurt."

"Two pieces of information."

Mizu couldn't stand it any longer, she knew she shouldn't have but she grabbed his arm pulling him to face her. "Law I'll treat him if I have to. You owe him as he saved me."

"You. I owe him no debts and you will not leave this ship."

"Look, Captain, I can see that I make you and your crew nervous I shouldn't have come. I'll go find somewhere else."

"Two pieces of information as well as the location of your commanding officer."

"Ex-commanding officer."

Law moved to the side letting him pass instantly three pirates surrounded him leading him down into the ship. "Thank you." Mizu murmured.

"No need. I need to test something out and he seems like a viable candidate."

Ignoring the obvious creepy aura from Law Mizu just had to ask, "For what exactly?"

"Surgery."

"I don't want to know do I?"

"No." They lagged behind that marine being walked through like a prized catch on display. "Cleaner-ya, clean the engine rooms."

"At the very bottom of the ship far away from the medical bay. Any reason"

"You're too curious."

Sticking her tongue out Mizu laughed, "Nah, you're just jealous."

Dodging the smack to the head Mizu skipped off in the opposite direction. When Law got to the medical bay he was rather surprised to hear what Casey had to say. He'd made a very good deal.

No excuses,well one, one week I got a tattoo and after being stabbed repeatedly by a needle for two hours straight I just wanted to sleep. I'm a terrible person but a terrible person who brings good tidings and a new chapter woo!
