CHAPTER 7

Miyako was brought out of her thoughts when she heard the doors open. The newcomer was a man about her age. He was wearing a white jumpsuit much like the ones the two Heart pirates she fought the other day wore. *Is this like a standard uniform in this crew...will I have to wear it too?*Miyako almost frowned at the thought. He had odd colored spiky hair, light blue that almost appeared white, and looked as if it defied gravity. There was a red and white bandana covering most of his forehead and he had a patch of unshaved hair under his chin, which could hardly be seen. The guy had a big cheerful smile on his face even though he looked a bit embarrassed when he saw Miyako sitting in the bed with only a big T-shirt covering her. She instinctively pulled the sheets closer to her, covering herself more as she looked suspiciously at the man. Her expression was blank but she was watching him carefully in case he made any wrong moves. She might not be healed completely, but she was well enough to fight if necessary, and she didn't have much trust when it came to pirates, especially men.

"Hi!" He greeted with that smile still present. "Wow, you're really pretty." He grinned even wider, happily.

"Um, hi...and thanks?" Miyako answered a bit uncertain of what to do. Then she realized he was holding her clothes in his hand.

The man noticed her staring at her clothes and quickly handed them over to her. "Oh, I brought you your clothes. I'm Cody by the way. The captain told me to show you around."

"Thanks." Miyako said drily. She wanted to change but he kept standing there with an expecting look and she didn't know what she was supposed to do. Then suddenly he blinked, realizing what the problem was. "Oh, right! You want to change. Hehe, Sorry." He smiled sheepishly, scratching the back of his head. "I'll just wait outside." He quickly turned around and closed the door behind him as he left.

The girl sighed tiredly and stood up, changing into her white, long sleeved turtle neck shirt, plaid skirt and black stockings. In the end she put on her black boots. But it felt strange without the katana around her waist; she missed it. *I guess I'll have to be on good behavior for a while so Law would return it,* she thought darkly.

She slowly opened the doors of her room and saw Cody leaning on the nearby wall with hands in his pockets, waiting for her. "You ready?" He smiled, after giving her a long look from head to toe.

Miyako just nodded and they started walking along the long metal corridors. The submarine was fairly large, with three levels and the halls were full of twists and turns. As they walked Cody showed her around and talked about the submarine, crew, captain and the Heart Pirates in general. He even told her about some adventures they had. The third level (the one at the bottom) was the engine room and storage. Mostly the mechanical stuff that kept the submarine running. The next level was where the rooms of the pirates were, the bathroom and laundry room and the galley. Pirates' rooms were big but had about 5 or more people sharing it, with bunk beds and hammocks. At least Law showed her enough mercy to give her a room for herself, even if it was small. She actually felt grateful to him, but then remembered why she was here in the first place and felt annoyance coming back while just thinking about her new captain. However she wasn't shown the same mercy and felt pure despair when she realized there was only one bathroom (also on the second level), shared by the whole crew, except the captain who had his own, the bastard. For someone like her, coming from Wano, to share a bathroom with 20 other men (Cody told her there were 20 crewmembers on the sub plus one polar bear) was unthinkable. The bathroom was big with a few toilet stalls and a dozen showers, since men obviously didn't mind being there at the same time. It seemed impossible for Miyako to be able to go there and do her business without anyone around.

Seeing Miyako's desperate look Cody tried to cheer her up. "D-Don't worry, the crew will try to figure something out so you can shower without anyone barging in. They're all good fellows after all."

The young girl smiled a little at Cody, though it looked a bit sad. "Thank you," she responded. She still had suspicions since the guy was a pirate but for now he didn't seem so bad.

The first level was where the control room was and also captain's quarters and the infirmary. Also Bepo's quarters, who obviously had privileges as the first mate. Miyako was still fascinated by the whole 'talking bear as a pirate' thing but didn't ask Cody anything about it.

As they walked, they passed some of the crew members who gave her curious looks. It seemed everyone already heard there was a girl on board, but nobody knew what she looked like.

"Wow, she's pretty."

"Look at her eyes. Cool."

"A girl! Lucky!"

"What's Cody doing with her?"

She could hear all kinds of whispers as they went through the submarine and Miyako felt relieved when the tour was over.

"Sorry about that, they're guys after all." Cody smiled sheepishly, scratching the back of his head like before. "You'll get used to it."

*I don't really want to get used to it. Why don't they just stop instead?* Miyako thought a bit irritated and gave Cody a dry look, yet didn't say anything.

Her relief wasn't long-lasting though when she realized they were in front of Law's room. Vaguely she remembered him saying that they come to him afterwards, and she sighed at the thought of having another mind battle with Law. Usually she would enjoy trying to piss him off with her comments or getting some reaction out of him, but she felt too tired for it today.

"Well, here we are." Cody said and knocked on the door. "See you later. Good luck!" He called out, already walking away and leaving Miyako alone in front of the steel door.

She heard a muffled "Come in" from the other side and opened the door, stepping inside the captain's quarters. She looked around the spacey room. It was nicely decorated and had a bed on one side, while a few shelves with various book on the other. In the middle was his desk, with a large comfy chair where Law was currently sitting. He had different maps and papers making a mess on the desk. She noticed a door on one side, probably leading to his bathroom. Miyako hid a frown as she remembered the public bathroom she now shared with 20 men.

Law was writing something and didn't even look up at her as she closed the door behind her and stepped further into the room. "Did Cody-ya show you everything?"

Miyako simply nodded but realized he couldn't see it so she said a short "Yes."

"Hmm," was all Law responded with and then there was silence again.

Miyako realized he was ignoring her on purpose, making her wait. *Heh, he should know better. Like he'll get a reaction out of me with something as simple as that.*A few minutes passed by and nobody said a word, so Miyako started looking around the room staring at all the different things there.

"I just wanted to make a few things clear now that you are an official member of my crew, Miss Miyako."

The voice made her blink and she snapped her head towards him, diverting her attention to her new captain instead of his bookshelves. He was now staring at her, his hat hiding his eyes.

"Yes Mister Law?" Miyako prompted him to continue.

"From now on you will address me as 'Captain', not Law or Mister Law, is that clear?"

Miyako nodded. Even though he was using a rather cold and harsh, serious tone, she didn't seem fazed. It neither scared her nor annoyed her. She just stared blankly and expressionless, waiting for him to continue.

Law didn't like her lack of acknowledgement and his eyes narrowed a little. Not that Miyako could see since his hat was shadowing his eyes.

"Also, you will show proper respect. Here, I ask for 100% obedience and loyalty. If I say something you do it without asking questions or any unnecessary comments."

"Yes, Captain." Miyako said, still not showing any emotion. It wasn't because she wanted to conceal her true feelings or anything, she just simply didn't care. She already had a plan of her own, which involved using Law and getting to Wano and that's all that mattered to her. If he wanted her to use a word as captain, fine, she will, but she won't show any respect by doing so. She didn't think of him as her captain, or comrade, or anything similar. Only a person she had to deal with for the time being.

Still, Law couldn't read her at all and didn't understand her lack of commentary which was so unusual for her. He thought by now she would have all kinds of complains to say yet she just took in everything he had to say, quietly. It only made him more suspicious of her intentions. Also, he was looking forward to getting her all worked up again and was a bit annoyed at the failing of his plan.

"Well if that's clear, there's one more thing. Everyone has jobs here and as a member of the Heart Pirates so do you. From today on you will be working in the galley, helping our chef. You start immediately, lunch time will be soon."

Miyako nodded and saluted. "Yes captain!" She said a bit too cheerfully. It didn't sound mocking because she wanted it to come off as serious, but both her and Law knew she did it out of pure mockery and just to annoy him. She knew he was annoyed yet poked at him none the less. But there was nothing he could say to her since she made it sound so sincere.

"You're dismissed." He said through gritted teeth and Miyako turned on her heel and walked out of the room. A small smirk appeared on her face as she walked towards the galley on the second floor. *That's for this morning, you pervert,* she though as she remembered when he made her feel so embarrassed.

~...~

"Tch" Law leaned back in his big chair as he took a short pause from his work. Mostly because his thoughts were still preoccupied by the newest member of his crew. She was messing with him…and that was unforgivable. He knew it'll take time before he breaks her but he didn't expect her to be so good at this game. He thought he was the only one who'll have fun. *No worries. This is just the beginning.* His smirk appeared and his gaze fell on a katana neatly sheathed and leaning against the wall.

And that's the end of chapter 7!

Unfortunately this one wasn't long but hopefully the next one will be longer and more interesting.

Heh, so Miyako's purposely getting on Law's nerves. It's like their having a silent mind game war…well that's gonna be interesting. :P

I any case, thanks for reading and I hope you liked it. Reviews, comments or constructive criticism always welcome.
