Chapter 8: A Past brought to light as a goddess was threatened
I let out a small groan as I woke up. Crisp January wind flowed through my window causing me to sigh. I glance down at my body and shook my head as I glance to the side. Law laid next to me and I curled further into his side before casting a Tempus charm. I nearly groan at the time before shaking my head. Yesterday had been taxing...
FlashBack
Saturday came quickly even though the pranks pulled were minor. We were mostly getting back into the swing of things after all. I yawned as I walked into the Great hall and rubbed sleep from my eyes. I allowed myself to go into my hybrid form to conserve energy for what I would have to do today. I have decided that I would show them my childhood with the Dursley's, my childhood before and after I ran away, some of my life as a pirate and the like. I heard gasps and some squeals, but ignore it as I slowly made my way to Gryffindor table. I was blocked as I reached the halfway point as a pair of arms surrounded my waist and pulled me into a hug. I let out a small yelp and look to see it was a grinning Hestia. I growled low in my chest as I murmur, "What the fuck, Stia?"
She let out a laugh and pulled at my waist, "You're sitting with me for breakfast," at my slight glare, she grinned, "I'll give you as much chocolate as you want," I began to drag her over to her table causing her to laugh, "Hook line and seeker!"
I ignored that as she sat me down at the end of the table between my mother and her. I smiled at my mom and murmured, "Morning."
"Morning Kaileara," She replied causing me to smile, "Are you ready for today?"
"Yes Mama," I answer with a soft smile, "I have everything ready what about you?"
She nodded and I began to eat. I blink as a hand was waved in my face. I look up to find it was Aphrodite. I frown and glare at her causing a few people to snicker. Mom tensed next to me as she spoke, "Ah Kaileara I wanted to ask-"
"If it has anything to do with love," I began as I glare icily at her, "I do not need nor do I want your advice. You've caused more than enough pain in my opinion, so leave me alone," I heard a few gasps and giggles at that causing me to smirk at the fuming goddess, "After all I'm not the one cheating on my Husband nor do I care about what you have to say,"
She glared at me as she hissed, "Just for that, I'll make you fall in love with a horse!"
I snort and gave her the famous smirk that adorned Law's bounty posters, "It's impossible to do that-"
"I am a goddess of Love and can do anything I want!" She exclaimed causing me to chuckle and her to frown, "What's so funny?"
"The only way to do that is if you're willing to take on the spirits and the fates," I answer with a chuckle as shock descended on those around me.
"That would mean..." She trailed off in a whispery voice.
"I've found my soul mate," I grin at her as the shock flowed through everyone, "So you can't do shit,"
"I can make her fall in love with some other man," She growled causing me to snicker.
"He," Again many were shocked, "Is not under your jurisdiction and neither am I. You can try, but it won't work,"
"I'll just go after your friend-" She began only for me to growl deeply in my chest.
In seconds, I had her neck in my fingers as a bone white dagger appeared in my hands. The air around me was as cold as Ice as I glared down at her. Frost gathered along the dagger's blade as I hissed, "Threaten my Nakama or anyone connected to them and I shall kill you," I could tell my eyes were a deep gold, "You can insult me, beat me, poison me, throw shit at me, abandon me, wound me, or kill me, but if you EVER," I held the Dagger close to her neck, "Try to threaten them, harm them, or kill them," I felt a thrill go down my spine at the fear that radiated around her, "I will kill you."
She whimpered as Zeus shouted, "How did you get that?!"
I grin at him as I held it closer to her neck, "Doing Favors for the spirits and the fates works wonders," I then look down at Aphrodite, "I will let you up, if you promise on the styx to leave my Nakama be," She nodded and I released her before I began to walk away, "I'll be in the room of requirement. I will have one of my familiars lead you."
I walked out of the room and headed up to the Room of Requirement. I felt anger flair in my stomach before I pushed it down as I entered the room. It became an exact mirror of Dawn island only covered in snow and Ice. I made my way to the cliff where my family had first become divided. I settled down and allowed my legs to hang over the side of the cliff as ocean spray hit my body. I heard two sets of pawed feet approach me and felt a smile tug at my lips. Two furred bodies came to my side and I reached out before allowing my hands to skim over soft fur. Yukina sat on my left side while Kiyo, My kitsune Familiar sat on my right. I stared out at the ocean and cursed Dumbledore in my mind for dragging me to this place. Kiyo spoke softly as my thoughts began to spiral into murder plots, "Calm yourself Kai. We need to be careful with each step of this plan."
"I know, Kiyo, I know," I answer and sighed, "I just wish Dumbledore hadn't dragged me back...I just want to be on the Sunny again or on the sub. I want to sail around again,"
"I know, but if he hadn't, we wouldn't have Mione and the others," She reasoned causing me to sigh and nod, "Now about threatening a goddess..."
"I know it was stupid, but she threatened my Nakama," I defend causing her to snicker.
She stopped after a few moments and said, "I know, but you must realize that one of our ace's has been revealed. If they find out about Black, You may very well..."
"Get into worse trouble than I already am," I finish for her and shook my head, "They'll find out sooner or later, so why not get it over with now,"
Kiyo snorted as Yukina smirked. She yawned and leaned against me as she mumbled, "Always to the point...I missed you."
I smiled sadly and nodded, "I know Kiyo...I missed you a lot...it feels better knowing I have you by my side."
"I think we all missed each other," Yukina cut in causing us to chuckle, "All we need is Winter and we'll have the whole team,"
We sat there for an hour before I heard a pair of footsteps. I felt a smirk appear on my face at the aura approaching. I say, "You do realize you still can't sneak up on me Eris," The movement stopped as a groan was heard, "Did you come here to scare me or thank me for the chaos I caused."
I heard a giggle and looked over to see her taking a seat next to me. Kiyo moved to my shoulder as Eris took a seat next to me. Her hair was still the messy black it had been and Red eyes. She smiled at me with a cheshire grin. I rolled my eyes as she said, "Of course I came to congratulate you both on causing that bit of Chaos and for being a pirate," I stiffen at the mention and looked at her in surprise, "Of course I found out. You caused way too much chaos with your disappearing trick and with the Marines."
I smirked at the mention of it before shaking my head, "So what did they do when I left the great hall?"
"Stare after you before Zeus tried to get Artemis and Loki to allow you to be killed," She answered causing me to frown, "Didn't work. Artemis almost castrated him," I smirk at that causing her to giggle, "The Gods and Goddesses are divided. Ah the glorious Chaos,"
I smiled at her and shook my head in amusement, "It's surprising that they would be...wait both Norse and Greek?" She nodded causing me to stare at her in surprise, "Damn that's...amazing," I stare out at the ocean, "It's nice to know that my Nakama isn't the only ones who would defend me..."
"What is this place?" She asked causing me to look at her.
"This is..." I trailed off at the memories this place brought, "Is where my Nakama first became divided...and it's where I...I was healed by Lady Luna,"
"What do you mean healed?" She asked causing me to frown.
I felt the need to hide or do something that wouldn't make me tell her just yet. I heard footsteps and almost sighed in relief as my mother appeared with the group of gods. From the greeks was Eris, Hecate, Hestia, Mother, Zeus, Hades, Poseidon, Apollo, and the rest of the 12. From the Norse was my father, Odin, Freya, Fenrir, Vali, the girl from before, Hel, Navi, Jor, Sleipnir, Thor, the warriors three, and Heimdall. I stood slowly with Kiyo jumping on the ground to stand with Yukina who had taken one of her larger forms. The room shifted and changed as I willed it to become the viewing chamber in the Temple of the Humble Man. I heard gasps as I walk to the large pool at the center of the room. The room was a mixture of Greek, Roman, and Japanese. The large pool in the middle of the room glowed a gentle blue as I approached. I turned once I reached the pool and smirk at the way their eyes widened, "This is an exact replica of the viewing room in the temple of the Humble Man. I found the temple during my time away from england in the Grandline," I held out my hand, "It will work as a medium for my powers so I won't have as much strain on my body."
"How will you be showing us what you plan to show us?" Father asked causing me to grin a big grin.
"With my powers," I answer and close my eyes.
I pull my choice memories as I sent a tether of my magic mixed with my devil fruit, though it pained me to do so into the pool before creating a portal into them for the group to see. I crack open my eyes as Eris gasped, "That's one way to do it!"
I smirk as I say, "Just walk through and you shall see everything."
I could see the indecision in their eyes before they finally walked through the portal. I held it open for what felt like hours as they traversed my memories. I finally collapsed to the ground as they walked out of the portal. Blood seeped out of my nose as I gasped for breath. I heard a gasp and felt someone laying me on my back. I opened my eyes to see my mothers scared ones. I smiled a bloody smile as she asked, "What happened?"
"My powers," I rasp as my eyes grew heavy, "When I mix them to do this, It causes so much strain and pain that I can only do it for a short time. My devil fruit and magic will not mix for longer than 10 seconds," My eyes flutter shut as I began to pass out, "I'm going to sleep...night,"
I heard soft gasps and sobs as I lost conscious. Keeping that up for an hour drained me badly...sleep will help.
End of Flashback
After that, I had awakened in the hospital wing and left before anyone could stop me. I had just reached the gate when I saw my Mother running out with the other following her and Portkeyed away. I ended up collapsing and was found by Shanks. I told him everything and he took me to Law. Law assessed my health and helped me out. We ended up staying in my room and passing out together. I yawn again and heard a soft chuckle. I look up and my eyes met soft, sleepy cloudy grey. I smiled softly as he said, "You should go back to sleep."
"It's noon Law," I murmured causing his eyes to widen, "We need to get up,"
"Or we could stay in here today," He suggested causing my eyes to widen, "Your brother and you taught me to have some fun...and got me to appreciate the time I spent away from my studies," He then leaned down and kissed me, "After all, I get to spend more time with you and don't have to share,"
I giggle at that and smirk at him, "You're a jealous bastard you know that right?"
He snorted and smirked down at me, "I have you and I'm not willing to share you," He kissed me again, "I am allowed to be a jealous bastard when I have you to myself."
I grin up at him before curling up against his chest and closing my eyes. He chuckled as I childishly murmur, "Read me a story then."
He moved causing me to whine and chuckled again as he went over to one of the bookshelves. He searched them for a few moments allowing me to stare at him. His muscles rippled with each movement showing off the tattoo on his back. I felt my mouth go dry at the sight and had to lick my lips. Damn he's hot! I shook my head as I raised my body and called for Mipsy. She popped in as Law found a book. I quickly ordered a good lunch for the both of us a I left Law to pick the drinks. I used the bathroom and came back to find food set up on a table at the end of the bed. I took a seat next to Law and we ate together before I headed to take a shower. I then dried off and got dressed before walking over to him. He had taken a seat on one of the window seats and I joined him. He chuckled and held me close while putting the book down. He laid his head on mine and murmured, "I missed you."
"I know," I say and turn my head towards him, "I missed you too," I then picked up the book and held it up, "Tell me the story,"
He chuckled and took the book. I settled against him as he cracked it open. His voice was soft as he read aloud, "Chapter One: The Stone Den. In the beginning was a castle high on a craggy precipice..."
An hour later
"...A courage is needed as deep as despair," He finished the last line of the poem when Mipsy appeared.
Her eye were wide as she spotted us and just as I was about to ask her why, She shouted, "Intruders Mistressy! On the hill!"
I tensed and looked at Law. He nodded and I quickly threw the balcony door open with magic as I say, "Tell the others that I will deal with this," He nodded and I quickly kissed him on the lips, "I'll be back as soon as possible."
I jumped up and ran out of the room. My feet barely touch the balconies smooth stone before I jumped into the air. My body shifted into my cloud walker Wolf form. Clouds form beneath my paws and I run on them. I made my way over the city of Pirates to the hill where I could see my mother and her group standing. I landed on the ground at the ward line where they stood as Alexander growled at them. I felt a smile appear on my face as Kiyo and Yukina joined him. I land in between Alexander and Kiyo while shifting into my human form. I placed a hand on his shoulder causing him to top and turn his head to me. He growled out, "Minna what should we do? They came here and weren't invited."
I smiled at him, "They are fine my little Ookami. Go and return to your patrol. It's fine."
"But-" He began only for me to give him a look, "Fine," He looked at me with worry, "I'll get Dapha if they try to harm you,"
"I will be fine," I look towards the gods, "I can take care of myself," I look towards him once more, "Go,"
He nodded though gave the group a suspicious look before taking off. I lean against Yukina as I look towards them and Kiyo pipped up, "What are you all doing here?"
"You three just ran off," Hestia answered and looked towards me, "Why?"
"Instinct," I answer as Tundra chuckled in my mind, "Told me to run to where I felt safe. With my Nakama, I feel safe," I gave them a raised eyebrow, "You saw that after all,"
I saw them look between each other, but stayed on the other side of the ward line. Mother walked forward and the ward line flared to life a beautiful blueish silver mixed with other energies that came from the spirits. I heard gasps and smiled at them. Mother spoke and asked, "Do you really think this place is home? What about Olympus?"
I gave her a saddened look as I shook my head, "My Nakama is here and with the help of the spirits, Goblins, and the magical beings that already inhabited it, I made it a place safe for us to live...unless we allow it nothing can get inside. We only allow the Marine's in to get a good fight, more supplies, treasure, and news of the world that is our home," I watch as her face fell, "This," I created an image of the Grandline, the redline, and the other's, "is my home. The ocean, The islands, the creatures, the fighting, the adventure, the treasure, and my Nakama...it's my home."
I watched as their faces changed. The awe on their faces from the various scene's, the battles, and the rest. I wasn't sharing memories, but images. It was easier on me, but I had to release it before I collapsed. I shook my head tiredly and look up as the wards pulsed. My mother placed her hand on the barrier and I smiled sadly at her. She looked at me worriedly and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I will be fine," I answer, "The thing that I did yesterday took a lot out of me. It drained me more because my devil fruit power and my magic won't mix and even if I didn't mix them. Using powers of the mind is very draining on me," I then smile, "Like how healing is. While I can heal much better than before, it's still draining,"
"You can heal people now?" Apollo asked in shock.
"Yup!" I say happily, "I can heal much better than before because I know more about the human body now...Law helped me with that,"
"How did learning about the human body help?" He asked causing me to smile.
"It...it just did. I used what I knew about animals and it worked out with Law's help," I answer and shake my head, "He helped me see that animals and humans aren't too diffrent and it just worked out from there,"
"Are you going back to Hogwarts?" Father asked suddenly causing me to snort.
"Of course," I answer with a raised eyebrow, "Have to get Dumbledeedipshit out of there and improve it. I'm also thinking of driving most of the pureblood bastards insane, but who knows," I shrug at the looks of surprise on their faces until Fenrir and Vali smirked at me, "I do have to finish at least 4 years of Hogwarts in order to take my newts and the only reason my magical Nakama and I are there is because of my Navigator, Luna," I then smirk at them, "Any questions?"
"When will you be back?" Father asked causing me to shrug.
"Based on the total drain and other such factors...three days...maybe four," I answer before shrugging, "Any other questions?"
"Your brothers...and adoptive parents," Zeus looked like he had swallowed a lemon, "May we talk to them?"
"At the moment no," I say causing him to get angry, "Currently everyone is busy, so any other questions?"
"May I take a look at your magic as well as your other energies?" Hecate asked causing me to nod.
"When I get back," I answer causing her to smile, "If you'll excuse me, I would like to get back to what I was doing,"
"What were you doing?" Hermes asked with a glint in his eyes.
"Reading a book," I reply causing him to frown as a smirk emerged onto my face, "What did you think I was doing?"
He stayed quiet while inching away from my mother causing a soft chuckle to escape my lips. I heard footsteps from behind me and glance back to see Shanks. I gave him a soft smile as came to a stop next to me. He looked at the gods with slightly wary eyes and a bright smile on his face as he asked, "What can we do for you?"
I felt a laugh bubble up in my throat at the cheery tone. The Gods relaxed even though Shanks radiated an aura of wariness. Zeus said, "We would like to discuss something with you Mr. Le Roux."
Shanks stiffened before saying, "I'm sorry, but I just came up here to get Kaileara. We need to head back. Luffy wanted to play again."
"Oh dear," I murmur with a fake frightened tone, "He'll destroy the place if we don't hurry,"
Zeus seemed pissed off, but Hera quickly took the situation into her hands, "Then you should get going. We'll talk another day."
I gave her a thankful look as the gods left. She stood before me in a few seconds and I passed the ward line to hug her. She was one of the few Goddesses that actually cared about me before she even met me. I smiled at her and say, "I missed you Granny."
She chuckled and brushed the hair out of my face, "Still disrespectful...how are you feeling, truthfully?"
"I feel after shocks of pain and tiredness only," I answer before my stomach growled, "And I'm hungry enough to eat two horses and three cows,"
She chuckled and released me before saying, "Then go eat. I'll keep Zeus pacified. I assume we'll be invited to the wedding."
"How did yo-" I began only to realize that she had connected the dots, "Yeah...just try to keep them from being idiots,"
"I will," she said before waving and leaving.
I walked over to Shanks and he said, "This will be awkward when they finally come to the island...won't it?"
"Yup," I agree before giving him a smile, "Let's go eat,"
He agreed and we headed back to the palace. He gave me a piggyback ride halfway there causing me to giggle and laugh. We pass a few people and I waved as they chuckled. We made it to the palace and into the dinning room where he sat me next to Law. I leaned into him as the food was brought out and Luffy said, "Let's have a Party!"
"Can't," I say causing him to pout, "I'm too tired to do that,"
He pouted and said, "No fair," Before brightening, "Then we're going to party when you feel better!"
I chuckled and agreed before I began to each. Law chuckled at Luffy before saying, "I will never get used to Strawhat-ya's spontaneous actions."
"He's Luffy," I murmur as I watch him and Usopp make fools of themselves, "It's his job...He'll always be this way and it's a good thing...he heals hearts and keeps people happy...it's why he's our king," I grin softly, "It wasn't the treasure that made him the king...it was his heart...his drive...everything he did...made him the king," I look at Law with a soft smile, "This is why I supported his want to be king...why I didn't side with you,"
"I think I can see it now," He agreed causing me to grin, "Let's spend the time you have here together,"
"Yeah," I agree and drank deeply from my cup, "It's times like this...that I missed the most when we weren't together...fates I love my life!"
That is the end of that chapter...the reason Luffy will become king is not the treasure, but because of everything he is...Luffy is just special that way. If you don't agree tell me why! Review and lets see how many people are in the same boat as me!
