Draco's Crew: Holiday Surprise

Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece.

The Dark Christmas Eve

Malchior set there, at the table, rubbing his pounding head, thanks to Jessie hitting his head, and mutter, "I really need to teach her how to respect her captain."

"It's hard to respect someone who don't know when to hold his tongue.", the cook mutter as she walk up to the captain, put a sandwich in front of him, "Now talk."

Malchior sigh as he took a bite of his food and look at his crew, then put it down, "As you guys know, I was once gone by Roger Smith and I had another crew, till they decided to leave me behind at a place called, Water 7."

"We know that part, Mal.", Karai said as she lean back with a sigh, making the captain sweat dropped.

"Alright....How much do you know?"

"Just where you at and the fact that you were happy when you left your apartment and came back with an angry look.", Harry answer as he look at Draco, "So what happen in eight hour time?"

Draco took another bite and slowly chew it as he look at them, "It's started after I left at a Christmas party, and was heading up to my place, when I heard something...."

-flashback-

Malchior was leaning against the corner, glance on the other side as he found a twelve guys dress like Santa, with hundreds of bags around the group, listening to them.

"Alright, guys." said the large gothic-looking Santa to his people, "Now, remember to steal anything you can and run back to the ship, then run back for more. Understand?"

"Yes sir, Nickie!", they all said at once as they hold up their weapons.

"And don't forget if you have trouble, run to Tom's Orphanage and do what need to be done."

"Yes sir.", all nine Santa said as the begin to move out of the alley, leave the other three alone, but two of the men came flying back, hitting the wall, behind the three.

"What the hell?", shouted Nickie, finding Malchior, wearing one of his crewmate's hats, as he walk pass the others, who laid on the ground, "Who the hell are you?

Malchior grin as he shut his eyes, "Oh, I'm just a guy, who like to work out after a great meal.", he stop in his tracks and open his eyes, giving the three a death stare, "And I hate to work out alone."

Nickie stare at the black hair man and the glance at his men, who was slowly coming to, and said, "Everyone, follow the plan while I handle him.", then he rush Draco head on, after pulling two duel axes from one of the bags and rush toward Malchior, who was in stance, waiting for Nickie, while the other run off.

-flashback end-

"Then what happen?", Gwen ask as she watch Malchior eat his sandwich.

"Well, I beat him.", Malchior said as he wiped the crumbs off his face and sigh, "But before I could knock him out, he run off."

-flashback-

"Damn Santa wanna-be.", Malchior mutter as he hold one of the axes in his right hand, while the other axe was on the ground, in pieces, "I wanted to 'axe' him a question ", then he chuckle to himself about the little joke, knowing where their heading and quickly rush to the orphanage, but right before he or Nickie could reach the building, it explode, cause both men flying into a wall.

A few minutes later, Malchior got up, dropping the weapon on the ground and turn his head to Nickie, with a very grim look, but to Draco's surprise, the goth Santa run off. He growl as he watch the people trying to put out the flames around the building, and quickly rush away, heading toward the area where he believe the man run off, well his rage seem to building inside his body, while his eyes seem to slit, much like a cat.

"Strong Right!"

-flashback end-

"So this guy knock you out.", Roy said as raise a brow at the captain.

"Pretty much.", Malchior replied as he lean back and sigh, "Franky was smart of enough to take me out, before I lost out of control."

"That's it?", Jessie ask as she look at the captain, "That's why you stop liking the holidays?"

"One of the reasons.", Malchior said as he keep his arms cross with a sigh.

"And the other?", Karai ask as she lisioning to Draco's heart from her seat.

"The reacting of the people the day after the explosion."

"Say what?", Gwen ask she blink.

Draco sigh as he got up, "Most of the people of Water 7 pretend nothing happen.", he slide his hands into his jacket pockets, "It show me how people care more about the holiday over the kids that was lost."

"Were their any survivors?", Ken ask as he look at his coffee.

"Yes.", Draco said as he rubbed his neck and move toward the evergreen, looking at the tree, "The woman who ran the orphanage.", then he turn around and look at his crew. "Now you know.", Malchior said as he walk over to his bag and put it on his shoulder, "So, good night and have a great holiday."

"Hold on, Senor.", Harry said as he light a cigarette.

"What?"

"The group of Santa."

"What about them?", Malchior ask as he turn his head looking at him.

"What are their name?"

"The name they called was 'The Holiday Bandits'.Why do you ask?", Draco said as he cross his arms.

"Cause I believe their here.", the sniper said as he took a long drag on it, watching the captain eyes narrowing at him.

"What do you mean?", Draco said as he dropped the duffle bag to the ground and move toward the group.

"Their were a lot of guys dress in Santa outfits around town.", Gwen said as she look at the captain, who seem to become demonic and turn around, but then he lean back as he begin to laugh out loud while his hair stand on end, and his arms was raise as if he was holding a huge bag.

"Malchior....", Ayame said as she and everyone was in shock about the way he was acting, "...are you alright?"

Draco stop laughing as he set up and turning his head and said, "I'm fine.", a grin seem to appear on his face, "Just find."

Everyone just blink at their captain as he head toward them, then set down, "So you want to celebrated a holiday with me?", they nod as they stare at Draco, "Then we'll celebrated Christmas with a new tradition."

"New tradition!?", the crew said in shock as they watch Malchior, who nod well grinning.

"Yup.", Draco said as he turn around in his chair, "Now, raise anchor. Open the sails and get ready.", then he got off the chair, moving toward the door with his pair of shades in his hands.

"What are you doing?", Harry said in a calm tone as he point at his log pose, "The pose haven't finish it's job, yet."

"Yeah!", Jessie growl as she glare at the captain, who was putting on his shades, "So, we're going nowhere till it's done it's job!"

"Oh, we're going somewhere.", Draco said as he turn his head to the cook, which made the cook stared at him.

"Where are we heading?", Karai ask as she raise a brow at Malchior as she begin to move out of her seat.

"Where heading the other side of the island.", Malchior said with a grin as he reach for the doorknob and head out the door, "To start our new tradition."

"What tradition!?", the whole crew shouted at once as the door slowly shut.

"The Fight Before Christmas.", Malchior's voice said as the door close itself.

The whole crew look at each other after they heard Draco and not one of them say nothing. Just then, Jessie feel something landed on her shoulder, making her sigh and turn her head to find Jack wearing a headband holding a little pole with a mistletoe "You do known mistletoe can be deadly, if you eat it."

"But a kiss can be deadlier.", Jack said as he lean up against her who just raise.

"So would a dip in a bath of boiling oil.", Jessie said as she glare at the bird, who sweat dropped and fly off the cook, heading over to Gwen, but notice Roy glaring daggers at him. So, he muttering to himself and fly out of the room.

Malchior: Well, I'm back and I going to say that I'm going to tried to finish this fic before New Years. Sorry it's taking me so long on this fic. Now about the 'Holiday Bandit'....I just want to say this much about them, they don't just steal on Christmas. They steal on New Years, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Halloween, ect. So that's the main reason I called them that. I know it's sound a bit stupid, but hey. I could of give the group a stupider name. Anyhoo, that's about it for this chapter, so please tell me what you guys think about it....meaning review or I'll drop a ton of fruitcake on your guy's head! And I have many fruitcake to dump on most of my readers!

Jack: He's not kidding folks! -the bird yelled out loud- He have enough fruitcake to build himself a new barn and have enough left over for a dog house.

Malchior: -sigh and smile- Anyhoo, Merry Christmas!
