(Earlier)
The Mask Seller was still in the shelter talking with a lot of the other civilians while also keeping an Eye on Sumi as a favor for Iza.
Sumi slowly opened his eyes, as he stared at the ceiling up above him. he then felt his head as it was throbbing.
"Oww that really hurt." Sumi said
the Mask Seller turned towards Sumi realizing he's waking up
"Your Awake." The Mask Seller said
"Where Am I?" Sumi said
"Your in the Agua Laguna Shelter, Iza trusted me to keep an eye on you while she went back to Galley-La to take care of some things" The mask Seller said
Sumi was then taken a back when he realized what wasn't with him, The Sketchbook.
"Where did the Sketchbook Go?" Sumi said
"Sketchbook?" The Mask Seller said
"Yes a Sketchbook have you seen it?" Sumi said
"Why?" The Mask Seller said
" Oh Um, Because I need to return it to..." Sumi said
"GALLEY-LA IS ON FIRE!" Someone yelled Barging through the door of the shelter
"WHAT!?" Someone else yelled
"I'M SERIOUS THE GALLEY-LA MANSION IS GOING UP IN FLAMES!" The Person yelled
the Citizens were all running towards the outside, Along with the Mask Seller and Sumi. Everyone went outside and noticed huge amount of smoke soaring up into the sky, and without hesitation pretty much everyone was now running towards the Galley-La Mansion.
"Iza." Sumi said in a scared tone
"WE GOT TO DO SOMETHING ICEBURG MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE!" A Citizen yelled
As Everyone was running towards the burning Mansion, but as they got closer to it Sumi then stopped as his nose twitched. the Mask seller turned towards him and noticed that he was running in another Direction.
"Sumi what are you doing!?" The Mask Seller yelled but Sumi was to far away.
Sumi was running towards the scent he picked up. hoping that he's not wrong.
"Please Please be all right. "Sumi said with a worrying face. as he was getting closer and closer to the scent he noticed that he was getting close to The Art Gallery. which he found rather odd.
As Sumi was getting closer to the Gallery he then noticed a few figures standing by the the door of the art Gallery in the distance. and as he got good look he noticed Iza Tied up along with Kalifa and Komo in Black suits Sumi went wide eyed as he saw Komo take off the Metal Covering from the door so easily. and how Iza was being dragged inside. Sumi Carefully walked towards the side of the Gallery Sumi quietly shimmed close to the door as he carefully peeked
"I'm not telling you anything, you stupid cu.."
Sumi then heard a loud punch and a thud which made Sumi Quietly gasp as he saw and heard Iza grunt in pain by the corner of his eye while peeking through the door. Sumi Quickly shimmied back away from the door, Sumi was scared he didn't know what to do he was no match for them Regular People sure but not people that can crumble metal with just one punch. Sumi then could hear footsteps coming towards the door. Sumi Scurried to the side of the building as he saw Kalifa Drag Iza out standing her up towards the Canal.
"Lets see what those legs can do when you can't move."
Sumi then Saw Kalifa Drop Iza into the canal with her arms and legs binded. and after about 30 seconds passed Kalifa and Komo took there leave and jumped away.
Sumi Quickly Ran towards the Edge of the canal as he saw bubbles still coming up Sumi was panicking he had no idea how to save her he couldn't swim, which would put himself in danger as well. As Sumi had tears in his eyes looking down as Tears started to drop into the canal he could see Iza actually Swimming up still binded Sumi then smiled Seeing Iza come up. but as she was only Halfway there he could see that Iza stopped and then started to slowly drop down again. Sumis eyes went wide
"No No!" Sumi yelled as his tail started to shake in fear...Sumi then noticed a long a piece of rope by some nearby crates, he quickly took it and tossed the end of it into the water Sumi then produced two big paint arms out of his tail and grabbed the other end, as soon as he felt it tug he then quickly tried to pull the rope up from the water. he smiled as he saw Iza coming up from to the surface.
(Present)
Sumi?" Iza said
"Are You Okay?" Sumi said with tears in his eyes
"I'm fine. how did you find me?" Iza said Hugging him back.
" Oh Um, I thought you were back at Galley-La, But then I picked up your scent and found you here." Sumi said tapping his nose with tears in his eyes
"Iza then Picked herself up.
"Come on we got to get back to Galley-La. " Iza said
(Galley-La)
Back at Galley-La, the Foremen were trying to put out the flames of the mansion as best they could.
"HEY SOMEONES COMING!" A Person yelled by the gates
"WHO IS IT!?" some one else yelled
"IT'S IZA AND HER PET!" another man yelled.
"IZA!?" that person yelled
A Couple foremen opened the gate and let Iza and Sumi in both Iza and Sumi were then catching there breaths.
"IZA YOUR ALL RIGHT!? WE THOUGHT YOU WERE STILL STUCK IN THE MANSION!?" A Foremen yelled
"What about Iceburg and Paulie Where are they!?" Iza yelled
"IZA!"
Iza then turned around and noticed Iceburg sitting down by Nami, Paulie and Chopper, Paulie quickly got up shocked
"YOUR ALIVE!" Paulie yelled
Iza quickly ran towards them all Iza Quickly Pulled Paulie in and gave him a Hug, Paulie then became red faced.
"All right...all right, could you please stop your crushing me." Paulie said
Iza then Gut shot him. he then collapsed clenching his stomach. She then
"Really!? After all this! thats all you have to say!?" Iza yelled
Iza I'm so glad that your all right." Iceburg said gettn up himself.
Iza then turned towards Iceburg
"Well I'd Probably be at the bottom of the Canal by now if it wasn't for him. "Iza said petting the top of Sumis head.
Iceburg then crouched down towards Sumi
"Thank you for saving her. "Iceburg said
Sumi then just gave a huge smile.
"Iceburg..I got some bad news...They got my Half of the blueprints." Iza said in
Iceburg eyes went wide.
"WHAT!?" Iceburg yelled
"I'm sorry." Iza said turning her head away in shame
"It's not your fault..(Sighs) this makes the situation even more Dire." Iceburg said
"So Whats the plan?" Iza said
Paulie then took out a Cigar and started smoking.
" Me along with a small group of our foreman will be helping to Stop the Sea train from Leaving While our Reindeer friend Chopper here takes another group and find the rest of the Straw Hats" Paulie said
"The Sea train is the only way CP9 will be able to leave with Agua Laguna on its way, we don't have much time" Iceburg said
"Well then we have no time to lose then, Lets get this done. Iza said
"Wait I want to help Chopper find the Straw Hats will that be okay?" Sumi said
"Thats fine, just be careful and stick with the group at all times." Iza said
"Okay." Sumi said
"Lets go." Paulie said finishing his Cigar.
Somewhere in a far distant rooftop. Cray was laying down on his backside unconscious.
"(FlashBack)
"Iro Iro No...SC CAN.."
Cray was then sent flying out of the top of the roof as he felt himself spinning as he was flying forward through the air.
"Oh Damn...I'm going to pass out...need...to...AH!" Cray yelled thrusting his arm out as he launched his Snapper hand hoping to catch onto something, the Snapper Hand was launched as far as it could go. The Snapper hand was just flaying around in the air but as it Drooped down it managed to attach onto a nearby Rooftop, The snapper hand then pulled Cray back as he was rolling atop of the roof until he stopped on his backside.
"Tha. was...clo...se"Cray said as he finally passed out
At the train station, government officials were now boarding the Sea Train, But little did they know that Sanji was in distance staying out of sight doing some recon.
"Hmmm its seems that everyone is ready to take off but wheres Robin?" Sanji said to himself
but as Sanji looked on a bit longer he could see the five CP9 Agent walking towards the Sea train along with hooded figure, Sanji then looked at the one that was hooded and he realzied who it was.
"Robin?" Sanji said to himself
"LET GO OF ME DO YOU HEAR ME I'M WARNING YOU!"
Sanji then looked again and noticed that one of the Agents were carrying Two Individuals on his shoulder in Carrying Bags, Ussop and Franky, Ussop just continued yelling at them until he was knocked out.
"Ussop?...Dammit." Sanji said with a irritating look.
