"You guys didn't find anything?", asked Olivia.
"Some locals said that a man matching Law's description was seen a few days ago, but other than that nothing."
"I can still pick up his scent around the battle area, but then the trail just disappears.", added the doctor sadly.
"Well, we can just go again later, I mean it's not like he could of left the island already. Right, Aunt Nami?", tried Olivia.
"It's unlikely considering when you and Robin ran into them, but I suppose it's possible."
"So what the hell are we supposed to do? Chase after him from island to island hoping we catch up?", asked Zoro angrily.
"Calm down Zoro, we'll figure something out.", said Robin, reaching out to touch the swordsman's arm.
"Isn't there some way for you to contact him Uncle, I mean you guys were in an alliance for awhile?"
"Traffy gave us a vivre card before we separated, but I lost it.", answered Luffy.
"There has to be something we can do?", huffed the teen.
"We'll go searching again tomorrow, you guys will just have to be patient.", said Nami mournfully.
"Easy for you to say witch.", snapped Zoro.
"I'll get dinner started.", interjected the cook as he rose and headed to the kitchen.
"Just one more night.", whispered Usopp in an attempt to comfort the Roronoas.
One More Day
Crash. Robin came running into the library from the observation deck, afraid something had happened to Olivia. "Olivia what's going on?", asked the older historian as she took in the pile of upended books surrounding her daughter.
"I...wanted to see if I could use your powers.", answered the girl, embarrassed by the bruises she now sported courtesy of the botched experiment.
"I see. Why don't we clean this up and then I'll have a look at your injuries.", smirked Robin.
"Alright." Olivia bent down to collect the strewn texts as Robin moved to join the effort.
"Not as easy as you thought?"
"Not as easy I thought."
One More One More Day
"You have to have seen something! He's a tattooed guy with an animal hat who travels with a talking bear!", yelled the swordsman.
"Sir, I'm afraid you and your friend will need to leave, you're disturbing my customers.", choked out the frightened barkeep.
"Come on Zoro, we'll try the next place.", urged Usopp, pulling on the bigger man's arms.
"Tch, fine. Your drinks suck by the way."
The next One More Day
"Wait you've seen a tattooed guy with blue hair walking around with guys in jumpsuits! That's who we're looking for!", exclaimed the excited navigator. "Can you tell us where?", asked Chopper eagerly.
"Oh sure, they're right over there." said the elderly woman as she pointed behind the pirates.
"Uh Nami, those are trees, and a lamppost.", whispered the tiny doctor.
"They are great conversationalists, that one on the left can be quite the cheeky rascal."
"Nami, I think this lady might be insane.", whispered the reindeer, getting more anxious by the moment.
"Step back slowly and keep smiling.", said the redhead through gritted teeth.
"Chester always says the nicest things about my garden, you know I bet he would love to meet a pretty lady like yourself.", continued the elderly woman. "You would be perfect for his collection.
"Collection?" The pirates swallowed as sweat dripped down their faces. This lady is gonna kill us!
"Oh yes, Chester enjoys having pretty things in his basement. Perhaps we could have some stew and chat, I make the best stew.", added the woman as she moved closer to the pair.
"Run!", yelled Nami as she shoved poor Chopper out of the way.
"Wait for me Nami! I don't wanna get eaten!", cried Chopper as he raced out of the antique shop.
Yet Another One More Day
"I can't take this anymore!", exclaimed the irritated teen. "I'm going for a walk."
"It's too dangerous Livy, just give us a little more time.", started Usopp.
"No, it's been nearly a week and we have nothing to show for it. This was kinda cool at first, but the novelty is wearing off."
"Yeah, bu-"
"No, we don't have a clue if Law is even still on this island or when Mom and I will be switched back. So, I'm going a walk because if I have to stay stuck on the Sunny hearing you guys mope and Dad complain I'm gonna lose it!", finished the teen.
"It's okay Olivia, just take your Gedo Shikai with you and be careful.", said Robin as she rubbed the girl's back. "I'll go check to make sure your father hasn't had a mental breakdown."
"Thanks Mom." Livy headed to her bedroom, picking up her katana and an over-sized hoodie to hide her face. She quickly exited the Sunny, happy to be able to stretch her legs, well her mom's legs, on solid ground for the first time in days. The swordsman headed for the town's center, not having a clear plan in mind, but determined to make the most of her freedom. "There has to be something I can do." With that in mind the young Roronoa headed for the place the whole mess had started, deciding that it would be the best place to start searching. "You would think the islanders would of tried to fix this up by now.", said the teen softly as she observed the wreckage. She turned over some stones, walked around the perimeter of the destroyed buildings, and found nothing. "Gah, what am I even doing? As if there's just going to be a sign pointing me in the direction of the Heart Pirates, idiot. Maybe I can conjure up some eyes to get a better view of the town." The young archaeologist focused all her attention on the task at hand, letting her instincts take over as she tried to use the unfamiliar power. Flashes of trees, people, and buildings overwhelmed Olivia's mind as she produced the flower eyes, her senses overloading with the massive amount of information. "Ah!", cried the girl as she clasped onto the ground, a splitting pain pulsing behind her eyelids. "Bad idea, bad idea, bad idea." Olivia rocked on her side, holding her throbbing head in her hands as she fought bad tears from the sensory overload.
"Are you alright?", called a male voice from somewhere above her.
Livy tried to open her eyes, the pain still clouding her mind and distorting her vision. "I'm, I'm fine."
"You're rolling around on the ground clutching your head, in my book that's not fine.", countered the voice.
"I don't remember asking for your opinion."
"Look, I'm a doctor, I can help you if you'd let me.", tried the man again.
"I highly doubt you could fix the issues I'm having right now.", laughed Olivia bitterly, he head clearing ever so slightly.
"I've seen some pretty messed up stuff, try me."
What could it hurt? At the most he'll just think I'm insane. "Okay, I was on the ground because I was trying to conjure up eyes to get a view of the island because I'm searching for a guy who switched me and my mom into each other's bodies. I don't know how to use her devil fruit powers, so I ended with this killer migraine from sensory overload and now I'm pouring out my problems to a complete stranger who probably thinks I'm insane."
"Can you tell me your name?", asked the young man.
"It's Olivia.", replied the girl, turning to look at her companion for the first time.
"How old are you?"
"Normally fourteen, why?"
"It's nice to meet you Olivia, I'm Trafalgar Code, and I think I can fix your problems.", replied the dark-haired teen with a smirk.
"You're the boy that was with Law that day! You, you can tell me where he is!, exclaimed the girl as she moved to stand only to get dizzy and start to fall.
"Whoa there.", said Code as he gripped Olivia's wrist, stopping her fall. "How about I bring my father to wherever you and your mom are."
"That would be great. Where do you want to meet?"
"Don't worry, as soon as I get back to our ship my dad and I will come to you.", replied Code nonchalantly.
"How will you find us, you don't know where our ship is?"
"Trust me, I'll be able to find you no problem.", smirked the younger teen letting his finger's slide off of Robin's body's wrist.
"Why are you so willing to help me?", wondered Olivia, her natural suspicions taking over.
"I don't get to meet a lot of people my age, and you interest me."
"That's it."
"I suppose you could call it an investment. I hope after you get back into your original body, maybe we can talk for bit. You seem like a nice person.", replied Code over his shoulder.
"That doesn't sound too bad.", said Olivia. She watched the strange blue-haired boy turn a corner before taking off at a sprint toward the Sunny. Trafalgar Code, I wonder what will come of this.
