Hey guys, coming at this story with another update! I hope you enjoy the chapter! Let's begin!
Sabo and Lu had been living in Marco's house with them for the past few weeks now and it was amazing! They had almost become like a family now...just what he had wished for, a family.
Ace was cooking a fresh kill he had made outside the facility. He started to do this for Sabo and Lu since they had moved in but all the while did so for Marco as well. He was constantly teased by Thatch and Izo about being Marco's little housewife now. To make it worse, Marco gave him a kiss on the cheek in front of them and Lu even started to call him mom.
"Hey sweetie. How is your morning so far yoi."
Ace knew who it was without the having to turn around but this was getting out of hand! Ace elbowed Marco who kneeled over while he called out to Sabo and Lu.
"LU! SABO! FOOD!"
Ace was almost knocked down as the two twin terrors came out, grabbing for the food. Ace's tail came wrapping around both the boys, putting them in a seat bringing the food to the table. Ace generally felt as if he had a family now...but...the problem was...he didn't know how long it would last.
He had been in Whitebeard's care for a full month now but he always had the same dream….or nightmare. He heard the words that were spoken to him. The ones from that horrible scientist.
"Even if you go with your new owner. I will find a way to get you. And when this time comes...You will come with me willingly. If you don't, well let's say it will feel as if God had abandoned you and the devil has your soul. Because if God is gone and the devil takes hold then who will have mercy on your soul?"
Ace was afraid. Afraid that the life he has built will be for nothing. That he will die alone in the end in the hands of some delusional mad man. But in spite of that he kept smiling because he never wants this to end, he wanted to have this until his time was up on earth.
Ace knew and dreaded the time that would come when he may had to leave his family. For Ace, his past was inescapable….if only he had more-
"Dad! Are you okay!"
That definitely snapped him out of his thoughts. His eyes widen as well as Marco's and Sabo as well. Lu didn't seem to feel the tense air, Ace went over to the boy hugging. If he was to be called that by Lu he had no problem with that. Until Thatch happen to come in, hearing everything that transpired.
"You called Ace Dad, that isn't what you're supposed to call him Mom! Marco is the Dad!"
He blushed a solid red when Lu started to call out Mom a bunch of times, resulting in Ace chasing Thatch around trying to undo the mess that Thatch laid out for him. Marco was laughing all the way of course, Lu began to ask his dad to help him and Sabo with something.
When Ace stopped chasing Thatch he began to realize Lu and Sabo along with Marco were gone. He also realized that their plates were completely cleaned of any food there as well.
"So you got yourself a little family with Marco here~ I didn't think you two would have kids this soon!"
Thatch barely dodged the knife that was lodged in the wall next to him, paling at the sight. He gave a shaking laugh before high tailing it out of the sector most likely. Ace started to clean up the dishes and such before he went to look for his kids.
Ace started to look around all the possible places and sectors he had seen, like the desert. He went and talked to Nemur in the ocean sector and even asked around….No such luck. When he ran across Vista he found out that Lu and Sabo had Marco with them who were heading outside to get something.
Ace knew they would be okay with Marco going with them so there wasn't room for worrying. He began to wander until he bumped in a guy in the Whitebeard family. He hadn't seen the man before though….
"Hey my name is Robert Newgate, but everyone calls me Robbie! You must be the guy who came in a month ago with Pops! How you feeling?"
"Oh! I'm fine, and it's nice to meet you Robbie! My name is Portgas D Ace! What sector are you looking after?"
"Oh, you can say we all look after the animals in the sectors but when the first commander is gone a few of us guys take his place in taking care of them."
"So I've seen two sectors already but only know there are certain creatures in different places but what other sectors are there?"
"You know the the ocean and tropical sectors right?"
Ace nodded before Robbie continued.
"Well there are others like a Dense Jungle area as well to the Rain forest that you and Marco live in. Haruta as you know controls that sector. There is a Arctic sector where the penguins and seals are. The desert on contains various lizards and snakes that don't hunt each other. And there are more but why don't we go on a tour? Didn't Thatch or Izo already take you on one though?"
"They were going to but everyone's been so busy lately….I don't mind exploring on my own…."
"No sense! Let me do the tour and help you to learn the place!"
Ace happily nodded wanting to go and see the other environments that he never saw, it was one big adventure! Ace began to follow Robbie seeing the different place that animals adapted to and lived in. They went to the sector that had the commanders in them only.
The Desert sector had the 7th commander in charge of it. Rakuya talked about there being mostly predators in this sector, whose habitat wasn't doing the best or animals that were dying out. Like the Saharan Cheetah, or the Desert Bighorn Goat. He also mentioned that these animals have been here since they were babies letting them get use to the desert and not using their most primal instincts.
Robbie and him went past other likes the Lake sector or the Grassland sector both had the commander Thatch and Izo but they weren't there for the moment….Robbie turned to him smiling asking me how was the tour so far.
"It's been good so far! I really like the animals i'm seeing! It's good Pops it helping the animals that are dying out!"
"Yeah, that's the man he is! But Ace I have something for you."
"What is it Robb-"
Ace felt something cover his mouth, his wolf instincts kicking in, clawing at where Robbie was. Who was holding the cloth to his mouth and nose….His arms stopped on the account they felt like lead, and he couldn't move.
"This is a special kind of liquid that gives off a odorless scent that makes the victim's brain to shut down, including all motor skills as well. Doctor Hare misses you a lot….Why don't we pay him a visit?"
Robbi- no Robert started to carry him through the halls, Ace having his eyes closed, most likely to make it as if he had a narcolepsy attack. If Robert walked out with him without anyone seeing, it was over. Ace heard as they passed a few people on the way, hearing them ask what was wrong and him giving the same answer.
"He had a sleep attack and I'm taking him to Marco's house."
Ace tried to get his voice to speak! He wanted to desperately wanted to scream for help, please work voice! Moments later he felt himself shiver at the cold that engulfed his body. They must be outside at this point….
"Looks like we're almost home free….The doctor has missed you so much. He loved playing with your body, tearing it open….wouldn't it be fun to play again?"
For Ace he was already in hell, just thinking of what he would have to endure and ensure to live. Tears started to fall through his closed eyes, he….he….
Ace blacked out.
When he woke up he was in a bed, a soft one at that. He began to think it was all a dream, after all it wouldn't be the first time he had a nightmare about that man. He got up looking around to see that it was the treehouse.
Ace grinned before running outside the bedroom. He saw Sabo, Lu were at the table while Marco was cooking food for them.
"Marco! I'm so glad it was all a nightmare!"
Marco turned to him giving him a smile before he served the breakfast to them before leading Ace to the bedroom.
"Tell me about it you."
"Ok. In the dream I was getting a tour around the other sectors when the person, who was showing me around Robert or Robbie, kidnapped me! He told me he was taking me to see Doctor Hare? Do you know who that is Marco?"
Marco nodded before hugging him, wrapping his comforting arms around Ace.
"I do in fact Ace….He was…."
Before Marco finished what he was about, Ace felt himself cough something up. It was blood….Ace looked at where he felt the sudden pain bloom, leading him to look at his stomach with the scalpel.
"The one who brought you here under my orders yoi…."
Ace felt tears slide down his face as he looked toward Marco. Marco was wearing a smile on his face, while digging the scalpel deeper in him, he was coughing up so much blood….
"You know it's funny you. Imagine my surprise when in the single month you were with the those disgusting people, that you would grow to trust them and have your very own mate. Remember Ace, your mind is you must greatest enemy at times. Your mind gave me this information, how well it behaves. Something you should learn from it!"
Ace thought he knew what he'll was before, but he never knew it until now….Ace screamed as he was continuously torture with his mate's face. Fat tears rolled down his face, he couldn't take it! Ace screamed in pain.
"PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!"
Ace blacked out again, the pain too unbearable.
? Week later….
Ace had learned when he stabbed by (fake)Marco that he had been in a deep sleep having them pick at his brain for information. They didn't get the where Whitebeard, thank whatever god there was. The only thing they had(which the government knew) was the faces of some of the Whitebeards. Unfortunately that meant that (fake)Marco and (fake)Whitebeard were constantly torturing him to the brink of death.
His healing ability was only thing keeping him alive and they knew that. They not only stepped up the physical torture but the physiological torture as well. They would have Marco comfort him before savaging beating Ace. At first he begged for him not to do it but he quickly learned it only spurred him on. This was the week after he had woken up.
? Weeks later….
Ace was slipping away and he knew he was. He was beginning to forget who they were, who he was. Ace's finger was just on it, he was trying to think of the person who meant the most to him. After all the doctor Hare asked him to but seemed happy that he couldn't remember….Then this nice lady had helped him talking about not hurting Ace anymore? Ace lost his thought of the lady when a knock came from his door.
A man with yellow hair, in the shape of some fruit came in with a tray of food.
"Here you go yoi. Do you... remember me Ace?"
"Yeah, you're the guy who brings the food!"
"Good yoi."
And with that the man left with Ace waving good bye. Ace started to eat the food, before he began to feel funny again….this was the second week after he had woken up.
? Weeks later….
Ace wasn't sure how he got here or why he was here anymore. He was told by the nice doctor Hare that he was injured and taken here to recover. Ace felt as something was wrong….why did he feel this way? He was asked to do tests for the doctors so they could help him get better. Sometimes he had to be tough after he was hurt by the man with the yellow hair. He didn't know why the man hurt him, the man told him never to tell anyone….he didn't. This was 3 weeks after he had woken up.
After Ace said he wanted to go home, and if they could take him there doctor Hare got angry at him. He ordered for him to be taken to the lab and that the lady's 'method' wasn't working. Ace was walking with some guys to the lab that he had been to….at least he thinks so….When he walked in he was grabbed and carried to a table being strapped to it.
Ace saw doctor Hare come in with a smile on his face, the kind of smile only a madman would wear. Ace struggled in the bonds as he was staring into the face of of a man who would give nothing in the terms of mercy.
As the doctor got started in cutting him open Ace screamed letting his voice out no doubt ruining it in the process. Ace was blacking out….It was too much….Ace laid his head back about to surrender to the darkness when one last thought entered his head.
"Please….Help me Marco…."
I feel SO bad for what I put Ace though ;_;! No I can't look! Anyway I hope you liked the chapter. I will be updating Mafia Ace and Marco with Chem teacher soon!(because I forgot their names '_') Thank you for reading and I will C you guys later!
