Dear readers,
I know. I know. Finally, I update this story. I can only say sorry and update this story a bit more. I update today because its my birthday. Its a little gift for me, knowing this story's fans need it. So, lets do this. Grab some tissues and read.
10th seat- The hatred will continue on.
Ally- Yes. You don't want the Croc in your dreams.
Bloddie- Me too :D
Shadow- Oh the feels right now
Hot- WAHHHHHH. 3
Wicken- hmmmm maybe.
Red- I'm going to say this. She would not get a devil fruit.
Guest- Here's the update.
"Yahahahaha! You're going to eliminate me?!" Enel said, laugh loudly. He is very confident with his abilities, not caring that he is facing four opponents. 'Oh no. That guy is dangerous!' Nami thought. Enel smirks, staring at his opponets. This is the perfect place to end this game. In the central of the ruins, the very place with such history for blood to be shed.
"I wouldn't expect less from the survivors of this game…However do you know who you are talking to? Do I need you teach you some manners like that pirate girl?" Enel said, staring them down like prey. Robin, Zoro, and Nami tense up. He couldn't mean Angelina, did he? They hope not. They hope she's out there in a cave safe and sound.
"It seems that you don't understand what a God is…!" he said, annoyed. Nami fidgets behind the boulder.
"What do you mean by that girl?" Robin asks. Enel laughs. He knows that they want to know what happen to thier companion so desperatly. It fills him up with such joy.
"The old man fights for prosperity for Skypedia, the warrior fighting to return to his homeland, and the pirates from the blue sea trying to steal the gold. The world is fill with so many….Trouble lambs. Even the country has sinned greatly. And for that girl…..she went back to where she came from," Enel said, chuckling at the end. Zoro glares at him, getting ready to have no mercy on this God. Robin frowns, worrying about her missing companion. One way or another, they will know what happen to their Angelina.
All I want is to stay home, to slowly live life after coming back, but Lisa has other plans for me. She drags me to the mall to help her get her ideal prom dress. I don't know what I fear most Crocodile or Lisa's driving. Now, I'm waiting for Lisa to come out from the dressing room to show off dress number fifteen or was this sixteen?
"Come on,Lisa. Let me see it and judge how you look," I said, loud enough for her to hear me. I see a lot of other girls searching for dresses and some of those girls were with their mom. I sigh sadly, knowing my mother and I can't have that memory ever since I drop out of school, took my GEDexam and pass them.
"Could you hold on! I'm taking pictures, so my ma can see!" Lisa yells back. I stand up from the chair, walking to her door. I knock three times.
"I'm going to get some coffee from Starbucks. I'll be right back," I said, standing there. Lisa opens the door, wearing a bright blue dress. It sparkles in the light so much, I need to look away, fearing that it might blind me forever.
"Can you get me some caramel flan latte?" she asks, hoping for the delicious drink. I smirk.
"Yea! If you turn the dress off, Lisa," I said, joking around. I move away quickly, making Lisa miss hitting me. She pouts, not wanting to get out of the room.
"I want a lemon iced slice too!" she said, as I walk away. I give her thumbs up, letting her know I heard her. The Starbucks is in a corner hallway next to Forever 21. It is in a very quiet place in the mall, away from the screaming kids, and the hustle of people. I walk in, smelling the ground coffee. I scan the area, seeing only some people here.
"Hello, what can I get you?"a young male barista asks me. I look at him. He smiles, brushing away his brown hair.
"Hi. Can I have a grande hot chocolate, a venti caramel flan latte and a lemon iced slice, please," I said, fishing out my wallet in my purse.
"Of course, that would be $14.73," he said with a smile. I nod and gave him my debit card. He swipes my card quickly, and gives it back to me.
"Have a nice day," He said, staring at me. I ignore him, hoping he can stop with the staring. It kind of creeps me out a lot. I sit by on the bar, waiting for my drink. I tap my fingers on the wood, wondering what to do next.
Ever since I came back from that place, everything feels so unreal to me. At first, I was completely numb to it. I didn't know how to feel at all. There are times that I do miss them. I miss waking up in the morning by Sanji's cooking and training with Zoro before breakfest. Ussop and I having fun with Luffy and pranking Chopper sometimes. I wonder how Chopper is going to take care of our little herb garden that we were trying to grow. I guess Nami has more space in her room, since I'm not there. How Robin and I have these deep converstation about how the goverment is run and about history of islands she has learned. I'm going to miss on the wild adventures Luffy takes me on.
I wonder about alot of things that I won't experience. I won't see him become the Pirate King. I won't have anymore back rubs with Ace. I couldn't have my revenge on Crocodile on what he did to me. I won't have a chance to see Vivi anymore. There are times when I miss talking to my Dracule at night. Even at night, I wake up, hoping that I'm on the ship,waiting for him on the deck. I fear the most is forgetting thier faces and voices.
Then after a few days, all the emotions came out. Mitsuwa was my enemy, now became my therapist somehow. Who else can I tell about this wild adventure I had and believe me. I was relieved that I was back home, to the place I came from. Yet, my house's atmosphere is always tense especially with my dad. I don't know what to do. I was overwhelmed with the work I needed to catch up to finish school, but I decided to drop out and take the G.E.D exam and pass it.
I know somewhere deep in my heart, I feel so lost. I don't know how to describe it, but I feel like I have a hole in my heart and soul.
"One grande hot chocolate, one venti caramel flan latte and a lemon!" the barista said, getting my attention.
"Thanks," I said, getting up to grab them. I went back to the stool to sit, hoping to get some time to myself. I really don't want to go back to that hell hole. My eyes are starting to hurt from all the bright colors.
I took a sip from my drink, finding it so bland. I sigh. Thinking about how Sanji makes my hot cocoa.
"It's not the hot chocolate that Sanji makes,huh," someone said, voicing my thoughts. My eyes widen and snap my neck to the right. There is a blonde hair man, sitting dangerously close to me. He is wearing a black tux with a gray tie, black gloves and an evil smile. I quickly tense, not knowing how dangerous this new threat is.
"Or maybe you'll like his chocolate chip cookies a lot better than that drink," he said, pointing at my drink. I gulp, feeling scared. 'His aura makes me feel like when I was with Crocodile,' I thought to myself. I curse at God for putting me in this situation. There is no one here except for a couple and that barista, who is on his phone.
"I don't know what you are talking about. So, why don't you leave me alone and I won't call the po-"I said, cut off by him. He stands up, sipping on his drink.
"Well that's too bad," He said, starting to walk away. I watch him, fearing for the worst. He turns to me, his bright green eyes shining brightly.
"Look how the star shines so brightly, in the night sky. How the moon gazes down upon us, lighting the way. Yet I cannot see them, in this darkness. Because you are my only light, Angelina," he said, smirking. My heart drops as he says each verse. My eyes tears up, remembering who said that to me, and I hope I heard it wrong. I try to say something, anything. A nice comeback would be nice, but my mind went on a blank and he knows. He scoffs.
"Who knew that the Legendary Swordsman Dracule Mihawk is such a romantic poet," he said, proudly.
"…how did you…..who are you," I said, dumbly. No one knows about that poem except him and me. It was one of those nights that we share together under the starry sky.
"My name is Viktor and you are coming with me. We have a lot of things we need to talk about," Viktor said, dumping his drink into the garbage. I glare at him, putting a brave face on.
"If I say no," I said, very slowly. I observe his reaction. At first, he frowns a bit, and yet he slowly grins.
"Are you sure? That's too bad. Guess someone going to get hurt, then. Who should it be?" he asks himself. He rubs his chin, thinking.
"W-what?" I said, not believing what he said. He walks up to me, leaning very closely to my ear. I feel his hot breath on my neck, giving me goose bumps. I'm visibly shaking a bit, scared of what he can do.
"Maybe Lisa can have a leg cast when she goes to the prom or your mother can have a fatal accident, hehehehe" Viktor said, chuckling to him. My mouth went dry at his threat. I quickly respond to that.
"You wouldn't. I'll report you to the police," I said, hoping to scare him off. But, I fear that he would see through my threat and see he is getting to me. He burst out laughing, getting the attention of everyone in the store.
"They can't catch me and you know it," he said, happily. 'This man is crazy….but if I don't go with him. Someone I love would get hurt,' I thought. I can't hurt anyone else anymore.
"Fine. I'll go with you…just don't hurt my family, I said, whispering the last part. I didn't want anyone to overhear our conversation. He smiles, evilly.
"Good! I thought for a second you would fight me, but I guess time with Crocodile made you aware of people, huh, Angelina," He said, dragging away from Starbucks and into the crowd of the mall. I didn't know until I went back to Lisa that I forgot her stuff at Starbucks.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" I ask, walking beside him. I'm almost jogging right next to him because he has long legs.
"Well, there is a lot of things I want to say, but I don't have a lot time you see. My boss might notice that I'm gone," he said, looking at me. He slows down, walking slow so I won't have to jog to keep up.
"Who's your boss?" I ask. I need as much information as possible.
"Let's see where to start? Hmmm. I know. Let's begin to what happen to you. You see when Mitsuwa sent you to the other dimension; she only sent your spirit. So, your spirit made a temporary body which was only good for a couple of weeks, then your body starts to get weak until you die," Viktor said, slowly. I nod for him to continue. I could see the dots connecting. It would explain why I was weak in the sky while everyone one else adjusted to the air.
"But, thank god we made it in time and save your spirit cause if that body would have died, your own body would be forever in the coma," Viktor said, laughing. I grimace, avoiding some people when I walk.
"Yea. I'm so lucky," I said, thinking. So whatever happen to me in the pirate world, happens to me here.
"Now, let me explain what we can do. So, the whole dimension hopping power start-" he said, until I cut him off.
"What do you mean 'we'?" I ask, stopping in the middle of the crowd. Viktor turns around and tilts his head.
"You and I have some power to dimension jump to some have a destiny to need to record for what happens to a world. That's the reason why I'm here. Come with me and I'll teach you how to use... and maybe you can visit your boyfriend," he said, confusing me. I step back and then I turn away, walking the opposite directions.
"Do you know what you are saying?" I said, looking over my shoulder. "Normal people don't go into other worlds like that. I don't have powers that can do that. I'm born a normal person." I said to him. His face stays neutral.
"A normal person would have died during Crocodile's torture yet here you are," he said, calmly. I quickly walk away from him, wanting to do nothing but go home and hide under my blankets. I look over my shoulder to see him not there anymore.
I start to run to Forever 21 to get Lisa and haul ass. I quickly dodge the stroller, before seeing Lisa in the clearance rack.
"Lisa, we're leaving," I said, grabbing her hand. I drag out her out kicking and screaming.
"But I haven't even went through them yet," she said, resisting me.
"I don't care." I said, weaving my way through the crowd.
"You don't even have my VENTI!"
