Trinity Sayu
Sayu knew she was in trouble the moment she landed the plane back inside the sub. It was around eight am so still pretty early. However, waiting on the landing pad was Law with a scowl on his face. That scowl meant that Sayu...was fucked.
"Where were you?" Law asked eerily calm. Sayu fidgeted around under his intense gaze.
"The Baratie in East Blue. It's a floating restaurant with excellent food."
"I see...and why go there when we have a capable chef here?"
"I needed to see someone." Now this peeked Law's attention, only a little though. No doubt it may have been an important character he would meet later on.
"Oh, and who would that be?" Sayu looked down at her feet with a blush.
"...Black leg Sanji...although he's not black leg yet since he still works there. All I did was eat his food and then promised him we'd see each other again...on the Grand Line..." Law stared at her.
"Listen. And look at me when I'm speaking to you Ms. Mechanic." Sayu flinched at his tone. She was never strong when she was being rightfully punished. She stared at Law trembling a little and trying not to cry. "You're my first mate, not only that, you're...dare I say...as you so eloquently put it...my best friend." Sayu's eyes sparkled at that acknowledgement. "But tell me first when you get your stupid ideas. You do stupid things a lot that a child would do, because you are still child." Tears pricked at her eyes. "See? You can't even face me without crying when being scolded." Sayu hiccuped.
"I'm s-sorry..." Law held up his hand, he wasn't done with his scolding.
"This is your first and only warning. Understand? Next time, I'll take away your laptop." Sayu looked at him in horror. "I understand that your parents weren't around much to help you mature and that's the way you're like this. But at least try to think over your ideas, alright?" Sayu nodded.
"Okay." Sayu wiped her eyes. "I understand Law. I'll let you know when I do something stupid again. I'll nev-ow!" Law had hit her in the head with hilt of his nodachi.
"Glad you don't deny your stupidity. And what is that stuff on your face?" Law glared at her.
"...Makeup..." Sayu chuckled nervously. Law sighed and turned away.
"Get that stuff off your face and then get to the control room. We're getting close to our first island on the Grand Line." Law walked away.
"Right!" Sayu watched him go before relaxing. It was then that she had another stupid idea. This one being even stupider than the last one. She wanted to go see what was left of the town of Flevance. Although, that could wait for another day. It's not an easy subject to bring up.
"Heard you went on an adventure. Where'd you go, shrimp?" Ryu was leaning casually up against a wall in the control room when Sayu walked in.
"Oh you know...here and there. My business, not yours."
"Really don't care, was just curious." Sayu smirked.
"Unh-huh, unh-huh. Morning to you too. Though after this, I need a nap."
"Hey Sayu-chan!" Shachi grinned and Penguin came up behind him with a cup of coffee.
"Morning Sayu-chan."
"Hey guys. And morning to my favorite polar bear too!" Sayu hugged Bepo tightly from his spot in his chair.
"Hello Sayu." Bepo's nose suddenly wrinkled. "You smell like smoke." Sayu flinched slightly.
"Well, I was around someone who smokes, sorry Bepo. So where's the log pose pointing at?" Bepo unrolled a partially and poorly drawn map.
"This is the island. From one of the maps we acquired, I believe it's called Noiz." Sayu arched an eyebrow.
"That's a strange name for an island. It probably has a meaning behind it."
"It's loud." Everyone looked at Bepo.
"What's loud, Bepo?" Penguin asked.
"The island."
"You can hear it from here?" Shachi couldn't believe it.
"He's an animal, that have better sense than us." Law stated. "What do you hear, Bepo?"
"Music...lots of music." Sayu gasped.
"Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's go!"
The island of Noiz is a grand popping island. It's always in the wake of a big party on that piece of land. Musicians rise from this island and make a giant impact on music lovers all around. This island is also where the Heart pirates will meet two new faces.
Trinity Sayu
"Look at all the pretty lights!" The flashing lights were exciting Sayu's childlike mind.
"You're so easily distracted." Ryu steered Sayu away from the lights. The group had split up with their own agendas. Ryu and Sayu wanted to both get food. Well, mainly Ryu, Sayu just wanted to find some candy to munch on since Law doesn't allow it on the sub. Cavities and all that. Law and Bepo needed to see how long the log pose would take. Sachi and Penguin were of course fooling around. With all the walking around the music was very pleasant to Sayu. Although it's not as good as music from her world with it's Neyo love songs and then the mysterious of awesome J-pop songs. Nothing could possibly top that. Once Law learns a proper amount of english, Sayu thinks he might be a Neyo fan. How cool would that be?
"Ryu, look at that giant teddy bear! I need a bunch of stuffed animals for my room anyway! Win me some!"
"Why do I have to win you any?! You've got skills, do it yourself!"
"Is that any way to treat your first mate?!"
"You'll always be a shrimp before first mate!"
"How dare you?! That's insub-OW!" Sayu had bumped into someone...again.
"Oh crud! Are you okay?! I'm so sorry!" A hand was held out to her. A boy with snow white hair and purple eyes bright as an amethyst was standing in front of Sayu and Ryu. He was definitely a shota in Sayu's eyes.
"I'm fine. This happens to me all the time." Sayu took his hand and he pulled her up.
"You need to pay attention to your surroundings more." Ryu glared at Sayu and her shoulder's slumped in defeat.
"I know...I'm sorry."
"You should be." All the while the boy was watching the two pirates converse.
"I know what!" Sayu and Ryu turned towards the boy. "Come back to my place!" Sayu blushed and Ryu took a defensive stance. "No, not like that! My brother and I, we're musicians! We're actually doing a show tonight. It's an underground party and you should come by!"
"Is this how you get people to come? Bad advertising skills." Ryu said.
"Ryu! We'll be there-uh...we never introduce ourselves..." The boy gasped.
"You're right! My name is Sakumo Yuki, my brother is Sakumo Yuri, nice to meet you!" Yuki bowed and Sayu did the same.
"My name is Trinity Sayu and this is Ryu! Nice to meet you as well!" Yuki's brow furrowed a little.
"Trinity...Sayu?"
"Yes...?" Yuki was silent.
"That's a pretty name." Sayu sparkled.
"Thankies!" Ryu scoffed.
"Let's go shrimp. We have to get food and be back before the Captain comes looking for us."
"Ah, you're right!" Yuki held out a card to Sayu and she took it.
"Come to this address at midnight, okay?" Sayu nodded.
"Mmkay! Bye Yuki!" Sayu waved excited to Yuki as Ryu dragged her away and Yuki waved back with just as much energy as Sayu.
"Bye Sayu! See you tonight!" Ryu grabbed Sayu's ear.
"Ow ow ow ow ow!"
"Come on shrimp, you'll see your new friend soon."
"Let go of my ear!"
Elsewhere...
"I found one...she said she'll be here at midnight."
"Good work, boy."
"Our deal?"
"Still intact, you'll see your precious brother soon if everything falls into place."
Trafalgar Law
Three days...that's how long the log pose would take. Thankfully no one is in a rush or anything.
"Captain, this place hurts my ears. Too loud." Bepo had his ears cover with his paws and Law felt for the poor bear with his extreme sense of hearing.
"You can go back to the sub Bepo. I'm going to stroll around a while." Bepo turned towards the direction of the sub.
"Are you sure, Captain?" Law nodded.
"Go on, I'll be back soon." Bepo left leaving Law to himself and his thoughts. For some reason, Law's had a chill up his spine for a few hours now. A bad feeling so to say. And he's got a sneaking feeling it's centered around his trouble making mechanic. He's gonna have to have work out some sort of rules with her until she matures some more. After all...a child needs structure. For now though, he can just settle for the much need time without her.
Trinity Sayu
"Guys, want to come to a concert with me?" Sayu was back on the sub talking with Bepo, Sachi and Penguin in the kitchen.
"Concert?" Sachi asked.
"She got invited to an underground concert." Ryu was at the sink cleaning dishes. "By this boy a little older than her...maybe a year or two...who knows."
"He was a shota! An adorable shota! He reminds me of Len Kagamine...though they look nothing alike..."
"Who?" Penguin looked confused but Sayu waved him off.
"Doesn't matter. Anyway, do you guys wanna come or not? Speak now or forever hold your tongue."
"I'm okay, thank you though Sayu." Bepo said.
"We're good too, Sayu-chan."
"Yeah, we're just going to check out the ladies tonight." Shachi and Penguin had perverted grins.
"So just me and Ryu then..."
"Nope, I'm out too, shrimp. Underground parties aren't really my thing." Sayu jumped up.
"Fine! I don't need you guys! I'll just go by myself! Hmph!" And with that statement, Sayu left.
"Should we have gone with her?" Shachi asked.
"Captain said that Sayu is more capable than she looks." Bepo mentioned and Ryu chuckled.
"Yeah, shrimp is pretty strong from what I've seen. She'll be just fine."
Next Day - Trafalgar Law
Law was sitting at the head of the dining table in his usual seat and as always, first one to be up. After his exploration yesterday and finding nothing worthwhile in the music infested party town, it was close to midnight when he came back to the sub. Law relaxed in his chair reading a medical book and sipping on coffee. Around an hour had passed when it was time for breakfast. Ryu was already at the kitchen preparing said food. Bepo was drinking milk and Penguin and Shachi were chatting to themselves. Law placed his coffee down and then looking to his empty left seat, took a deep sigh. "Where is Ms. Mechanic?" At that everyone turned to the pirate Captain.
"She's not back?" Penguin asked.
"Where did she go?" Law questioned.
"An underground performance." Shachi informed the Captain.
"And you all let her go by herself?" Silence. "Unbelievable...after the lecture I just gave her yesterday..." Law sighed and stood up. "Bepo, let's go find our missing first mate."
"Yes, Captain."
"Bear with the noise for a while, cause I'll need your nose. You all seem to forget that Ms. Mechanic may be capable in some areas such as her knowledge in mechanics and combat expertise, but she is still a child. And when a child is by themselves...they do stupid things."
