"So it's time to deal with Callen?" I asked as Law led the way down to the brig.

Law had ordered me to follow him a little after breakfast and I had quickly come to the realization that it was time to deal with the green haired spy. Law glanced back at me as my paws ghosted soundlessly across the metal floor next to him, "Yes. He's outlived his usefulness."

My tail twitched slightly at those words as a memory tried to force its way into the forefront of my mind, but I pushed it down as we reached the second to last level of the sub. I noticed that it was actually colder down here than the rest of the sub prompting me to comment, "The temperature here is on the cold side which is odd considering the fact that the engines are on the floor below us."

"Due to the fact that we do not use this level for much, the heating system for this level is not used," We walked down the slightly dim hallway, "It saves us on power and fuel,"

"Smart," I commented as Law stopped in front of a darkened steel door.

Law smirked down at me before opening the door and gesturing for me to walk inside. I did so and he followed after as I took in the room. Three plain cells that reminded me of the holding cells back on my home island. It was obvious from the small amount of dust one two of the three cells that this area wasn't used often. My nose twitched as Law led the way towards the cell on the far end. The scent of blood came from that cell and grew stronger as we approached. Once we reached the cell, I found my eyes widening slightly. Callen was chained against the wall with his head lulled slightly to the side, but he jerked lightly as we settled in front of the cell. He was covered in open wounds and bruises. I could smell the infection in them from here. My eyes caught sight of the broken leg and the fact that his fingers were mostly broken. The ones that weren't broken were not where they were supposed to be. All in all, the sight was gruesome, but I felt no pity for the bastard. My attention was taken from Callen by Law speaking, "Ariun-ya his life is in your hands."

Law's voice made Callen jerk and the green haired man's pupiless orange eyes focused on us only to narrow into a glare, "Finally healed bitch? Coming to gloat?"

Law glared at the man and was about to speak when Ariun snorted. He glanced down at her and found staring at Callen in what could only be described as boredom. When she spoke, Law found a smirk appearing on his face, "Why would I come gloat? Gloating at a deadman is useless and a waste of energy. Besides, I find speaking to you to be annoying."

Callen bristled and Law found his amusement growing. It seemed that Callen disliked being talked to like that. Callen snarled at Ariun, "You can't talk to me like that you fucking bitch! I am a member of this cre-"

"As of the attack on me, you aren't," Ariun corrected him boredly, "Did you forget that you attacked me or something?"

"No! I don't see you as a fellow member of this cre-" Ariun cut him off with a snort.

"A crew that you're planning on betraying?" Callen froze and Law chuckled, "Oh Law and everyone knows about that little detail. I'm surprised you don't remember blurting it out to Law when he tortured you,"

Law spoke before Callen could, "It seems the amount of pain he was in at the time dulled his memory."

"The weak willed often have that problem," Ariun mock sighed before looking up at him and he found himself growing hard at the look in them, "Law mind opening the door? I dislike wasting my time with deadmen,"

Chuckling, Law took out his key ring and unlocked the door, "Of course."

As Ariun prowled into the cell, Law found himself wondering about how she managed to walk soundlessly on the metal floor. It was as if she was a ghost rather than a person. Law could only guess why she could move so soundlessly, but pushed those thoughts away as he watched Ariun reach Callen. Callen's eyes were wide with fear as Ariun stood on her back paws with her front ones on the man's chest. The darkened heterochromic eyes glowed with beastial bloodlust as she stared into Callen's pupiless orange. A low rumble left her as she spoke softly, "Callen this is where you die. As a traitor to the Hearts Pirates, a crew that saw you as their brother and friend. They were your nakama, yet you betrayed them to that pink bastard and for what? Fame? Wealth? A place beside him?" Ariun's eyes narrowed at Callen, "You are a worthless piece of shit that could have been something if only you had not been a traitor and actually cared about the crew."

"W-what would you know of nakama?" Callen gasped and Law could see small beads of blood seeping through the tattered shirt the green haired man wore revealing that Ariun was using her claws, "You're just a little bitch that joined us not even four months ago,"

"I know of nakama because the crew are my family and friends now," Ariun's claws dragged downward eliciting a scream of pain from Callen, "I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world and they'll realize it soon enough," Ariun retracted her claws and moved her head to Callen's neck, "Any last words?"

"All of you can burn!" Callen shouted, "My master will-"

His words were cut off by a gurgle as Ariun's fangs dug into his neck, she reared her head back and ripped his throat out. Blood sprayed out as Ariun dropped down to the ground and spit out the flesh in her mouth. Blood dampened her fur as she turned towards him. Blood dripped down from her fangs, but he focused on her eyes. Emerald and amethyst stared out at him from a blood soaked face. He was somewhat surprised to see the uncertainty in her eyes, but ignored it as he held out a hand towards her, "Ariun-ya come with me so that we can get you cleaned up."

"Who's going to clean up that mess?" I asked as Law led the way into my room since it was closer.

"Shachi-ya and Penguin-ya still need to be punished for their actions yesterday," My ears flicked back as I let out a low growl at the reminder.

Shachi and Penguin thought it would be funny to lock me in a storage closet with Kaze. It turned out that Kaze was deathly afraid of leopards due to being attacked by one on his home island. By the time they finally let us out, Kaze was a mess and I was really fucking pissed off at the two. My jaw clenched lightly and I hissed, "Please tell me that this isn't their only punishment."

"It's the beginning of their punishment," Law replied with a dark smirk.

"Good," We reached my room without being spotted by anyone and Law opened the door.

I walked over to the bathroom door and used my tail to open it before walking inside. Law followed after and asked, "Will you be transforming back to clean up?"

I contemplated doing that before nodding, "It will make it easier though bloods a bitch to get out of my hair."

"Good thing I'm here to help you," Law smirked at me as he started the water for the shower.

"Who said you have to help me?" I asked while mentally screaming that this wasn't part of my plan.

"I want to help you," Law replied and I knew that he wouldn't be leaving.

Muttering under my breath, I moved past him and got into the shower.

Law watched Ariun brush her teeth and grimace as if tasting something nasty. He quirked a brow at her as he pulled his hoodie back on and she spat out what was in her mouth before answering his unasked question, "Cinnamon toothpaste plus blood and flesh is a nasty combination."

She rinsed her mouth out before brushing her teeth again. She did this three times before tossing her tooth brush and taking out a new one. She cleaned her teeth one last time before finally stopping prompting him to ask, "Four times?"

"It's best to be thorough and I doubt you have a dentist on board," She returned to her animal form as she walked out of the bathroom.

"No clothes?" He commented earning a snort from her.

"Why bother with clothes when I'm going to be in my animal form?" She looked at him in slight amusement, "It's not like anyone can actually see anything,"

He chuckles as he conceeded to her before they left her room and he paused at the nearby voice pipe, "Shachi-ya, Penguin-ya please come up to my office."

After Penguin and Shachi had been told to clean up Ariun's mess much to her enjoyment, Law read over the supply list Buck had provided him and frowned at it. He looked up from it as Ariun asked, "Something wrong?"

"We're almost out of fresh fruit and vegetables," Law explained with a slight grimace, "We'll run out by tomorrow and we're still a day away from the next island,"

Ariun hummed softly which sounded odd coming from a leopard, "So we'll be without those two things or a day?"

"Yes," Law frowned at her.

"Then it's just a day," She did that odd leopard-shrug-thing, "At least it isn't a week,"

"Still," The doctor in him disliked the prospect, "It isn't healthy,"

"Maybe not," Ariun nodded as if the cement her agreement, "But there's nothing you can do,"

Law sighed and leaned back against his chair, "True even if I dislike it, I can't do anything about it."

"Everyone will just have to eat double their normal amount of fruits and vegetables when we reached the next island," Ariun laid her head back onto her paws and closed her eyes.

Bepo rubbed at his eyes, "Sorry we can't go any faster Captain."

"It's fine Bepo," Law glanced at the time, "You need to get some sleep,"

Bepo yawned softly, "Are you going to bed soon Captain?"

"Fairly soon," Law ran a hand through his hair, "Just go to bed,"

"Aye Captain," Bepo stood up from the chair and left the room, "Night Captain,"

Law watched the door close before sighing deeply as he glanced at the couch in his office. Ariun had left at 11 saying that she wanted to stargaze for a little before going to bed. With that in mind and the fact that it was closing in on two in the morning, Law chose to end his day. He stood up from his desk and picked up Kikoku before leaving his office after shutting off the lights. Deciding to check the top deck first, he turned towards the stairs.

When Law walked into his room after not finding Ariun sleeping on the top deck, he was surprised to find her laying in his bed already asleep. The fact that she was already asleep and in his bed weren't surprising at all. No the surprise came from the fact that she was in her human form and naked. The tiredness he felt faded away due to both his shock and the fact he was getting a good view of Ariun's chest. Law wondered why she was in her human form as he set Kikoku down and took off his boots. As he moved towards Ariun, his pent up lust and need rammed into him the longer he looked over her form. When he reached his bed, he leaned down and pressed his lips to Ariun's.
