Doflamingo waddled along, considering the business he had to do this morning. It was for Kaido. Almost all of his business was. Doflamingo hated Kaido, but not for the same reasons he hated Law. He hated Law because he'd taken a liking to the youngster and was then later betrayed by him. Kaido on the other hand he'd never liked, and subsequently had also never been betrayed by him. He hated the kind of man Kaido was, but even more so, he hated working under him. Working under the marines was fine because the marines were interesting, and he could always tell them to go fuck themselves if he didn't want to do what they asked. They also offered him protection so he could remain as King of Dressrosa. All Kaido ever did was order him around, orders which he had no choice but to follow, and he got nothing back from the deal, accept money that is. But money wasn't all that valuable to a King and a Celestial Dragon. Money held no value to Doflamingo, to him the only thing that held value in this world, was people.

˜AROUND TWO O'CLOCK˜

Doflamingo's head was throbbing after having to deal with those halfwit lackeys Kaido called subordinates. But, his day was bound to get brighter from here out. He was spending the rest of his so far, awful day with his new favourite… woman. As he expected, he found her with her nose tucked into some dusty old books. This time it was something about physics. Considering she had such an entertaining personality, he found it puzzling how she only ever did boring things.

"So, you said you'd show me something?" He clacked his feet together in mid air as he playfully skipped over to her. All he got in return was a questioning raised brow.

"Yeah, sure." She marked the page in her book and stood up, slipping her feet into her sandals.

After she was finished, he held out his hand, offering it to her, "Shall we go then?" He was ignored, again as she headed towards the door.

"We'll need to find somewhere quiet and unoccupied."

"Hmmm, sounds good to me." She balled her fist but forced herself to ignore his hidden quip.

"So, are there any small uninhabited Islands nearby we can go to." He looked over to her, slightly intrigued.

"Hm? Is that really necessary?"

"You're right. Let's just stay here and do nothing instead." A frown made itself prominent on his forehead and she took that to mean she had gotten her point across.

"Very well. There is an Island nearby. But it's only about four kilometres in radius."

"That'll be perfect."

They made their way outside. Before she had the chance to protest, he'd flung her over his shoulder and they were off in a flash, dashing through the air over the vast oceans of the New World. It was about 20 minutes before the Island appeared. It was indeed small, but it was lush and overflowing with plant life. The beaches sand was white and the waters were so clear she could see the sandy floor a kilometre out. The shallow waters were bustling with sea turtles and colourful fish. It was a miniature paradise, all alone in this harsh and unforgiving sea. He placed her down on the fine grained white sand and glanced around, taking in his surroundings. It was a beautiful sight.

"Sorry I dragged you out here. I just don't like people seeing my Devil's Fruit. The reason it's so easy for me to survive in the New World is because no one knows who I am… And I'd like to keep it that way, if I can." All he gave in reply was a cheeky grin. To him, that was her way of saying she was willing to show him anything he wanted to see, because he wasn't just any other person to her anymore.

She slipped off her sandals and wriggled her toes in the sand, enjoying the warm feeling. She closed her eyes and undid the band that was holding her hair back, letting it blow in the soft breeze. She let her arms fall by her sides, dropping the tie in the sand. Doflamingo looked over to her, admiring her quiet perfection.

Slowly the blood in her veins began to glow an icy blue, making the veins themselves visible through the skin, as though it was translucent. Her hair began to flutter more violently, but the wind itself wasn't any stronger. Her eyes snapped open. Her irises had completely disappeared, and the entire eye was glowing the same colour as her blood, as though all the radiant haemoglobin in her veins had collected there. The skin itself became luminous. At this point Doflamingo was void of all rational thought. All he could do was stare at the angelic like image before him. Slowly a pair of wings appeared from between her shoulder blades. They were luminous and translucent as though they were made from crystallized light, but when she used them to lift herself into the air, that was proven to be false.

"My Devil's Fruit is a mystical Logie type. The Ryushi Ryushi no mi. I have the ability to break down my body into its base particles and reform it into anything I want. I also have the ability to break down other simple materials as well. I can, kind of control weather, and I can use natural lightening to increase my power level…" With that she returned to her normal human form and sat down on the sand next to Doflamingo. He had an ever so slightly impressed smile on his face, but he didn't say anything that supported it. He simply lowered himself next to her and relaxed back on his elbows. She did the same. They both had satisfied smiles on their faces as though they understood eachother perfectly.
