Kishido awoke next morning cuddled up with his Bearsy plushie. It was still dark out, which meant that if he was quiet enough, he could sneak out and have fun with his parent still in bed.

He grinned and silently got out of bed, quietly putting his clothes on, which was comprised of black zipped trousers, black grey trainers, a white t-shirt, and a black cloak his mother had made for him. He also picked up his Bearsy plushie and put it in his pocket for good measure.

He slowly climbed out the window, careful not to make any noise, and dropped to the ground.

He looked around. Nobody was up yet, so he ran off to the forest to try and see what hid Devil Fruit power was.

Suddenly, the 'old man with a big wound' jumped out at him, and Kishido's Devil Fruit powers inadvertently went to work there and then. The old man fainted and something ghostly white rose out of him. To Kishido, it looked like a spooky white silhouette. It kind of reminded him of what his dad had told him about the 'Shadow Shadow Fruit' a fruit that allowed you to treat shadows as solid objects.

Kishido had a sudden idea. He stretched out his hand to touch the white thing, and sure enough, he found he could drag it around. He then remembered his Bearsy plushie.

Without thinking about it, he plunged the white essence into his plushie, and it slowly came to life.

He screamed.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!"

Suddenly, the forest came to life. Ryuma, the Legendary Samurai and Kishido's friend, came running out. He had sworn a lifelong vow to act as the guardian of Lich and Perona's progeny.

"Young Master Kishido!" he cried. "What's wrong?"

Kishido pointed a shaking finger at his beloved plushie, which was now up and walking around with a mind of its own.

"Toy Toy Fruit." said Lich, who had apparently been sitting in a nearby tree the whole time.

"Lich-sama!" said Ryuma, standing to attention.

"Gives the eater the ability to take the essences of others and put them into toys, thus animating the toys. Looks like you picked the right Devil Fruit, kiddo."

Kishido ran over to the tree his father was in. "It's…scary, daddy…."

"Don't worry, champ. If my theory is correct, it should do whatever you tell it to."

"Uh…ok…um…sit?"

The plushie promptly sat.

"Amazing." breathed Ryuma.

"Ok, come on, kid. If we're lucky your mother won't have heard your girly scream."

Kishido gave his father a playful push, before apprehensively picking up his Bearsy plushie, waving goodbye to Ryuma, and following his dad.

Once back in Kishido's room, Lich tucked him back into bed.

"Dad, are there other places than the one we live in?" asked Kishido, sitting up.

"Oh, yeah. This place is just a tiny fraction of the entire world!" replied his dad, getting that same passion in his eyes when he was being gross with Perona (well, Kishido, being young, just thought it was gross.)

"Really?" said Kishido, amazed.

"Really! I've heard of a sky sea, an island inhabited by fishmen, and even a prehistoric jungle island!"

"Wow…." said Kishido, lying back down.

"Yep. But for now…sleep. We can show your mother your Devil Fruit power in the morning."

Kishido nodded and drifted off to sleep, dreaming of pirates and treasure.
