So yeah, Arlong knows the truth. A son was born but it was dead. Sad,isn't it?
Got to say a big thank you to deathshark, always reviewing and willing to help me. You so rule!
Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece. But I do own my OC's: Sun, Rae, and the babies.
"What?"
"I'm sorry Arlong. You did have a son. He was, in fact, the first born. But he wasn't breathing. He was so cold and …It was a horrible sight. I'm sorry." Nami placed her face in her hands, letting the tears fall out of her eyes.
"When did he tell you?"
"Just this morning." Arlong stood from the bed, leaving Nami to cry herself to sleep. He walked out the room, slamming the door with all his might. He leaned his back against the door and slid down to the floor. His eyes kept switching between the roof and Mariko's room.
'A boy should be in there too.' His fist hit the wall right next to him, making some of it crumble slightly. His chest kept puffing up and down, unable to control his breathing correctly.
Finally, he just got up. He passed by most room and went to the back door, feeling alittle relieved to feel the ocean air. He got closer to the ocean and took a seat right next to it.
For the first time in his life, he felt like he was going to cry. He hit the water with his fist and let the tears fall. Yes, Arlong let himself cry. For the lost of his son, and possibly for making Nami believe he was angry at her. In truth, he was angry, no, beyond angry with Jimbei.
Nami just couldn't keep herself asleep. She didn't know why she felt so bad about telling Arlong about his son. But she didn't know if she was crying because she felt bad for Arlong or if it was because she really missed her little boy.
Sighing, she dressed in a good outfit that didn't show anything. She too left the house and headed over to Rae's house.
She knocked on the door, hoping that they actually heard her. To her surprise, Rae actually answered the door.
"Nami, what's wrong?"
"Um…Can I stay here tonight? I need to be with Mariko right now." Rae nodded and lead Nami to where Mariko was.
"Why are you still up?"
"We couldn't fall aslep for some reason. So Kuroobi is in the room with both Bliss and Mariko, letting them crawl around." Nami and Rae entered the bedroom, seeing Kuroobi laying on the bed and the babies on the floor.
"Why aren't you on the floor?"
"Because they kept crawling all over me. And I don't like playing bridge." Nami went to join her baby on the floor.
"Mama." Mariko crawled over to her mom and placed herself right next to her, immediately falling asleep.
"Ok, now it's your turn sweetie." Rae picked Bliss up and placed her in-between her and Kuroobi on the bed.
Bliss shook her head side to side "Mama."
"First word, first word. YAY!"
"Why did she say 'mama'? why not 'dad'?"
"Because she loves me more. HA!" Rae was going to talk to Nami even more, but she saw that her and Mariko were both fast asleep. Rae quickly got another blanket and placed it over them.
THE NEXT MORNING
"What's wrong with you, Choo?" Kuroobi,Hachi and Choo were walking back to the training grounds. Another session with the newbies.
"I don't know. Sun is angry with me."
"What did you do to her this time?"
"Nothing Hachi. I didn't do anything, that's the problem."
"Yeah right."
"You're angry too Kuroobi?"
"Yeah I am. First, Rae and I had to watch over Mariko. Then, her and Bliss decided to play 'throw the food and toys at the sting-ray.' And they wouldn't go to sleep. Nami came over and stayed the whole night!"
"Sucks to be you."
"Should you be talking, Mr. My girl threw me out of the room again for the fifth time this week?"
"Maybe I should leave the group. You guys are freaking me out." Hachi walked a little faster, getting ahead of the two angry mermen.
"Have you seen Arlong?" Choo asked Kuroobi.
"Not since he left your house yesterday." Right on cue, said shark came up between the two, his eyes a bright red from lack of sleep and from crying.
"WHOA!" Choo jumped back out of surprise. "Don't scare me like that. What's up with your eyes?"
"Nothing. Where is Jimbei?"
"Havn't seen him yet." Arlong walked past his group. Reason he was searching for Jimbei. Is to give him a piece of his mind. A group of newbies were seen circling around some kind of figure, all of them worshipping whoever it was in there.
"Jimbei!" He called out. The group of newbies parted, showing Jimbei in the middle.
"Hello there Arlong. Whoa, why are your eyes red?"
"No reason. We need to talk."
"Sure." Jimbei left the small group and quickly instructed the other three mermen of what to do. He followed Arlong for a while, both remaining silent.
"What exactly did you tell Nami?" Arlong was the one to break the silence.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Don't play dumb. You told her something, what was it?"
"All I told her was that you were going to eat her because she didn't give you a son first."
"What was your plan for telling her this?"
"Hmph, no point in hiding it now. You're slacking off. I figured that it was because of you not having a son."
"What was your goal?"
"My goal was to make Nami have sex with you; during it, she would panick and come out with the truth. I figured you were going to go on a rampage and just kill her and that pathetic baby of yours."
"What?"
"My goal was to have Nami and Mariko dead. And then just the sight of mere human blood would have made you into that monster, causing you to go kill the others. You know, Sun and Rae and Bliss and Kenn and Siria." Jimba suddenly felt some sharp at his neck. Wondering what it was, he looked down to see Arlong pointing his shark nose at his throat.
"That would have worked. But the male only kills the female if a son isn't born first. Nami told me that the boy was born before Mariko. So technically, she did give me a son first." Arlong moved his sharp nose away from the ever-so-calm Jimbei.
"So I take it she's not dead."
"Besides, I could never kill her. I don't know why, just can't." 'She'd probably come back alive in a ghost form and torture me for the rest of my life. Maybe that's why. She scares me sometimes.'
"Are you feeling better, Nami?"
"Sort of. I still don't know why I cried."
"Emotion honey, emotion." Nami and Rae left in the early morning, with the kids, to Sun's house. In order to make Nami feel better, the three of them decided to have a 'baking day'. With the little ones involved, of course.
Right now, Rae was holding Bliss over a rolled out cookie dough, holding the little cookie cutter in her small hand.
Nami was mixing up the mixture of cake, Mariko's hands over the spatula.
Now Sun had the hard part, having to handle two babies was hard work. Kenn was trying to break an egg into the bowl, while Siria wanted to hold the cup for her mother to pour in some water. When they tried to put those two things in, they missed completely.
"Don't worry babies, daddy's gonna clean this up." She assured them.
"So Sun, I heard from Kuroobi that you don't let Choo sleep in the bed anymore."
"That's right. He keeps trying to get me pregnant again."
"So what's your plan? To never let him sleep in the bed with you ever again?"
"You got it. I don't want any more kids for a while." The three looked down at Kenn, who had tipped the bowl over the counter, spilling everything on the floor. All babies started to laugh. "Besides, this one keeps my hands full."
4 MONTHS LATER
What day is this? It was all of the babies Birthdays. Nami, Rae, and Sun were rushing around Nami's house like crazy. Putting up little banners and streamers.
"Has Arlong said anything about that night?"
"No, we left the issue alone. Now he just handcuffs me to the bed and…"
"Please stop, please, I beg you. No more information" the three shared in a short laughter, and got right back to work. Now who were they supposed to invite to a party for the kids, since they havn't really been out that much? Arlong's crew, of course. And Jimbei, they couldn't get rid of him.
"OK, decorations up. Cakes in oven, men are trying to control the hyper 1 year olds that can now seem to walk. And it only took them each two months. Am I forgetting anything?" Nami ran through the list in her head over and over again. Coming to the conclusion that it was all done.
"Cake's done." They went and frosted every single cake, there were four. Sun made Siria's frosting red and Kenn's frosting Blue. Nami made Mariko's frosting yellow, since the baby seemed to really like that color. Rae made Bliss's frosting pure black, it was all so awesome.
Soon, a whole crowd of mermen walked through the whole house, amazingly it was crowded at all. Thank goodness Nami's house was super huge. The girls rushed to where the babies and the three mermen were.
"Ok, party's ready and…What happened in here?"
"They did it." The mermen pointed at the babies on the floor.
The room was totally TRASHED! The bed was covered in paint and sparkles. The walls were covered in different colored markers and certain holes were in plain site. And the mirrors were cracked.
"NO. DADA." The babies pointed up at their dads, all eight people in the room were fully aware that they were in some big big BIG trouble with the mamas.
"We'll discuss this later. Come here babies." The girls bent down, the babies all waddled over to them and lifted their hands in the air. "You guys go get cleaned up. You don't want the crew to see their captain covered in paint and glitter."
Back in the other rooms, random mermen were arguing about there not being any kind of liquor. But whoever complained received a slap across the face from Nami. She was also searching for Jimbei, a little scared of what he might do to her.
"Time for cake." She heard Sun call out. They all headed outside, since there was obviously more room. All four cakes were placed on tables, each of them had the babies name in front of it, written on a small piece of colorful paper.
With an evil glare from each girl, the crew members had no choice but to sing 'Happy Birthday' to each separate baby. In return, the babies hands would fly around with excitement and happiness.
Once done, the girls cut the cake and distrubuted it out. Out of the corner of her eye, Nami saw Jimbei and he saw her. Her eyes locked with his and he motioned for her to come with him.
"Be right back." She whispered to the girls and quickly followed him. He leaded her to a random bathroom, shutting and locking the door.
"What do you want?" She asked him.
"Nothing. Just wanted to say…sorry."
"Really? Is that all?"
"You ruined my plan. Yet I forgive you."
"We have nothing left to discuss then." She turned to the door to open it, his hand shot at it, making sure to put enough pressure so that she couldn't open the door.
"I need to know something." He pressed up against her body. "I need to know why Arlong is so interested with you." She gulped. Was he going to rape her?
"What are you…" Her breath hitched in her throat whens he felt his hand rub from the back of her neck to the small of her back.
"Are you…good in bed?" He turned her around to face him. "I want to find out. I need to know why you drive my soldier crazy."
"Where's Nami?"
"I don't know. But she's missing the cutest thing ever. Mariko's face is covered in cake." Rae cooed over the dirty babies.
"I'm gonna go look for her." Sun left them, entering the house. She was going to start calling out until she heard something that sounded like hitting on a wall. She followed the noise, finally finding the source of it. Gathering her courage, she pushed the door open, seeing Nami sitting against the wall, holding her legs to her chest, without clothes.
"Nami." Sun rushed into the bathroom.
"Get out, quick." When Sun as by Nami's side, Jimbei showed up from behind the door, closing it teasingly slow. He smirked at her.
"Next."
"What?" Sun tried to back away, only to be met with the tub's edge.
"Nami." He looked down at her. "Get dressed and go out there. Don't want Arlong getting suspicious, now do we?" He picked her up by her neck, she now was hovering over the ground. "Dare say anything. And I will kill you. And then kill Mariko." He dropped her to the ground, making sure that she did what was told.
"Oh, and say that Sun needed to have a little break." He told her as she left the bathroom. "Back to you. You must really be something. If I remember correctly, weren't you the one who stood up to me when we first met?"
She didn't respond.
"I remember. I couldn't get my eyes off you." He knelt down in front of her and began to trace her face with his huge fingers. "I was…mezmorized by those firey eyes of yours."
"This isn't like you. You hate humans."
"True, I do. But like I said to Nami, I'm curious." He straddled her waist, making sure to cut off her chances of escape. "I just found out that Nami is just Fabulous. But now I need to know more about you, and you're not going anywhere till I'm satisfied."
All that was left for Jimbei was Rae. Somehow she was going to find a reason to actually go to the bathroom. Her reason was very simple though.
"Yay, you're back. I got to go." She said quickly before running to the same bathroom that Nami and now Sun were getting raped in.
When she pushed the door open, Jimbei grabbed her and shut the door once more. Loving the fact that he had just gotten the two sisters in there.
"Ok, now what makes you scream? Is it touch, tongue, just tell me and I'll make you scream so loud and long that you'll lose your voice."
"Let go." She nailed at his arms.
"Finally, a fighter. I like a lot."
No more for Jimbei, he was now satisfied. After the whole three rape sessions, he was keeping his eye on them outside. There were a few times they almost blabbed the secret. He would brush past them at the time to stop them.
The rest of the day was actually pretty fun. The babies made the girls forget about their whole bathroom scene, thankfully.
They decided together that this incident would be kept a secret for the rest of their life. No matter what.
Done. Thank goodness. I had a big scare today. My computer kept shutting down on me and I got so scared that I was going to lose how much I've done on this chapter, my mom fixed the computer though. WOO HOO! Anyway, please read and review. Please?????
