Day 3: Moment :)
Silence
Law takes a step forward. He can't understand how he can do it. His legs tremble, they tremble so much he almost falls.
"I'm still his brother by blood. Sure, he'll get mad… but he won't kill me."
Liar. You knew.
A gunshot. There is no gun, it hasn't happened now, but the sound rebounds in Law's head, loud and clear. It is a sound that won't disappear, a sound he will never forget.
He takes another step forward. His legs are heavy, he is dragging them, but his feet don't make any sound.
"I'm the soundless man who ate the nagi nagi fruit."
What a silly power.
Good, silence is good. Silence is Cora-san's power. If there is silence, then Cora-san…
"Its miraculous properties could apparently heal any kind of illness out there."
If he could just get there…
"Alright, let's meet at the next island."
Liar. You knew you wouldn't come.
"I'm sorry I lied… I didn't want you to hate me…"
Hate you? How? You…
His body is cold, and his face is even colder; the tears mixing with the falling snow practically freezing his skin.
But he is outside that treasure chest, and he can go.
"Just let him go! He's free!"
Free? Free to do what?
If only he could go there, he could…
You said it with that silly face, but…
"I love you."
Then, sound. He can hear his feet crunching the snow beneath them louder than the explosions and the battles raging throughout the island, louder than the sobs that rack his body, making him tremble as not even the cold does.
But Law keeps walking, because Cora-san asked him to.
He is free now.
Free to do what?
