CHAPTER 5
"If you don't tell me what I need to know," Naruto snarled at Porylusica, his face inches away from hers since she was tied up.
"I'LL KILL YOU…"
After capturing Porylusica, Naruto didn't waste time interrogating her. 'Why…' Naruto kept asking himself over and over again when it came to his daughter. On the outside Naruto's demeanour was menacing, but deep down he was heartbroken and confused. He knew that Porylusica wasn't always the kindest person, but he would've never thought she would harm his daughter, considering she was a trusted ally of Fairytail for many years.
"You can drop the act whoever you are," Macarov interrupted suddenly appearing. "I know you're not the real Porylusica. What did you do with her?." "She's not?!," Naruto eyes widened in disbelief, as he peered closer to Porylusica. "But that can't be!. My instincts should've picked up on that, you being a powerful wizard and all-" Naruto who was clearly still confused paused, when he heard the fake Porylusica snicker. "What's the matter Hokage?,"
Fake Porylusica said darkly grinning from ear to ear. "You look like you've seen a ghost." "Who are you?," Naruto growled now hearing the use of his title. "Took you long enough to figure it out," Fake Porylusica said shifting her gaze to Macarov now. "Why'd you curse the girl?" Macarov questioned referring to Hanami. "Simple. I had a curse placed on me, and I needed it removed. So I got the real Porylusica to make a real release spell on the devil fruit, then I trapped her in her home with a spell."
"A release spell?," Naruto echoed as he glanced at Macarov hoping that he would explain. "It's a spell a wizard can use on an object, so that whoever uses or eats if it's edible, the curse would be lifted, but the innocent in Hanami's case would be cursed, since she ate the devil fruit." Macarov explained. "Here's where it gets fun," Fake Porylusica said in amusement. "I couldn't use the spell on just anyone, but on someone who came from nobility. I couldn't get close to the royal family of Fiore, and I couldn't use it on Lucy considering she had lost hers. So I couldn't believe my luck when I realized that the Hokage of the hidden leaf village was here, and his daughter took a liking to me."
"SHUT UP!," Naruto screamed enraged now that the fake Porylusica was enjoying this, as the red chakra from Kyuubi surrounded him. At that moment Luffy and Nami entered the room. "As a matter a fact, why don't you ask Nami why I'm here," Fake Porylusica grinned at Nami's surprised expression. "After all she stole something from us." "Oh god," Nami whimpered as she backed away from the Fake Porylusica. "What's she talking about Nami?," Luffy solemnly asked quietly as his straw hat shielded his face for a moment.
'Please Nami tell me you didn't do something stupid.' Luffy thought to himself worried. He knew when he made Nami promise not to steal again when they had just gotten married, it was going to be tough for her, since she was stealing since a child. Knowing her past he understood why she did it. However he made the attempt to break her habit, so that when they did have kids she would be able to set a good example. "Didn't she tell you King of the Pirates?, that she stole one of the rarest forbidden magic, I'm surprised she's still in one piece." Nami gaze shifted nervously to and from Luffy to Naruto. "I can't believe you Nami…" Luffy shook his head in disbelief as he backed away from her.
"That's why Nathan didn't want to tell me where and how he got the chest when I questioned him." "I was going to tell you just like I planned on telling Naruto." Nami whimpered as her eyes welled up with tears, as she reached for Luffy's right hand. "Don't…" Luffy warned as he side stepped her so she wouldn't be able to touch him. "Please Luffy try to understand…" Nami begged. "I understand Nami don't think I don't." Luffy sighed crestfallen, as he stared back at her sadly.
"Just disappointed…" Luffy stated then left the room. "What did you have to tell me Nami?," Naruto asked feeling awkward after watching the exchange between the two of them. "Naruto I'm so sorry," she stated as she continued to cry. Everything she's saying is true. My son showed your son the chest that contained the forbidden magic that I had hidden away and now-" "Where is Shinachiku?," Naruto demanded his voice laced with fear. "They brought him back to the guild's small infirmary-"
Nami never got to finish, as Naruto disappeared in a flash heading towards the infirmary that Fairytail held within the guild. Within seconds he was there. "Sakura," he mourned her name, as she turned to face him. "Naruto!" Sakura wailed as she ran into his arms and cried. "What is happening?, this was suppose to be a fun vacation. Our kids were suppose to be happy, and enjoy their first time here." Sakura continued to wail into his chest. "We'll get through this Sakura…" Naruto responded staring at his two kids who were lying next to one another as his tears began to stream down his face at the sight of his kids' condition.
Hanami was sleeping, while Shinachiku was unconscious ever since he placed his hand in the box.
(LUFFY'S P.O.V)
"Luffy I'm so sorry…" Nami apologized for the thousandth time to me as we stood on the balcony. I didn't respond, instead I kept staring out at the town. "Why'd you do it Nami?,"My glance and tone of voice were emotionless. "A week ago when we visited Oaktown I ran into my enemy of my past, when we split up and I decided to go grocery shopping. His name was Arthur Pitman he recognized me and attempted to corner me." I was listening, but I choose to keep my gaze on the town.
"I managed to kick him in the groin and get away, but not before a small chest dropped from him. He begged me not to take it, I didn't listen instead I took the chest and ran." "Why didn't you tell me you were attacked?." I questioned knowing very well she was leaving out information. "Where pirates Luffy and you know damn well I can handle myself. However when I hid the chest from you I literally heard whispers coming from it, I even had strange dreams about the chest. It was then I regretted stealing it. Then Nathan found it by accident, but thankfully couldn't get it open like me-"
"You put our kids in potential danger Nami," I sternly interrupted her. "He's fine Luffy. Nathan didn't get hurt." "Our friend's son is lying unconscious in the infirmary Nami!," I yelled at her.
HOW DID SHE EXPECT ME TO FEEL AND REACT?!.
FOR WEEKS WE HAD A POWERFUL MAGIC ENTITY IN OUR SHIP, AND AS CAPTAIN OF MY SHIP I HAD NO IDEA. WHAT BOTHERED ME THE MOST WAS THAT NAMI HAD EXPOSED OUR KIDS TO MAGIC THAT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
HOW COULD SHE DO THIS?.
"I'm going to see how Shinachiku is doing then I'm going out for a while." "Luffy-" "Don't try to stop me," I rudely dismissed her and headed inside.
